This book was released on 1997 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cohomogeneity of a transformation group ([italic capitals]G, X) is, by definition, the dimension of its orbit space, [italic]c = dim [italic capitals]X, G. We are concerned with the classification of differentiable compact connected Lie transformation groups on (homology) spheres, with [italic]c [less than or equal to symbol] 2, and the main results are summarized in five theorems, A, B, C, D, and E in part I. This paper is part II of the project, and addresses theorems D and E. D examines the orthogonal model from theorem A and orbit structures, while theorem E addresses the existence of "exotic" [italic capital]G-spheres.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cohomogeneity of a transformation group ([italic capitals]G, X) is, by definition, the dimension of its orbit space, [italic]c = dim [italic capitals]X, G. By enlarging this simple numerical invariant, but suitably restricted, one gradually increases the complexity of orbit structures of transformation groups. This is a natural program for classical space forms, which traditionally constitute the first canonical family of testing spaces, due to their unique combination of topological simplicity and abundance in varieties of compact differentiable transformation groups.
Download or read book Abelian Galois Cohomology of Reductive Groups written by Mikhail Borovoi and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, a new function H 2/ab (K, G) of abelian Galois cohomology is introduced from the category of connected reductive groups G over a field K of characteristic 0 to the category of abelian groups. The abelian Galois cohomology and the abelianization map ab1: H1 (K, G) -- H 2/ab (K, G) are used to give a functorial, almost explicit description of the usual Galois cohomology set H1 (K, G) when K is a number field
Download or read book Cyclic Phenomena for Composition Operators written by Paul Bourdon and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We undertake a systematic study of cyclic phenomena for composition operators. Our work shows that composition operators exhibit strikingly diverse types of cyclic behavior, and it connects this behavior with classical problems involving complex polynomial approximation and analytic functional equations.
Download or read book A Continuum Limit of the Toda Lattice written by Percy Deift and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the authors describe a continuum limit of the Toda ODE system, obtained by taking as initial data for the finite lattice successively finer discretizations of two smooth functions. Using the integrability of the finite Toda lattice, the authors adapt the method introduced by Lax and Levermore for the study of the small dispersion limit of the Korteweg de Vries equations to the case of the Toda lattice. A general class of initial data is considered which permits, in particular, the formation of shocks. A feature of the analysis in this book is an extensive use of techniques from the theory of Riemann-Hilbert problems.
Download or read book CR Geometry and Deformations of Isolated Singularities written by Ragnar-Olaf Buchweitz and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this power we show how to compute the parameter space [italic capital]X for the versal deformation of an isolated singularity ([italic capital]V, 0) under the assumptions [italic]dim [italic capital]V [greater than or equal to symbol] 4, depth {0} [italic capital]V [greater than or equal to symbol] 3, from the CR-structure on a link [italic capital]M of the singularity. We do this by showing that the space [italic capital]X is isomorphic to the space (denoted here by [script capital]K[subscript italic capital]M) associated to [italic capital]M by Kuranishi in 1977. In fact we produce isomorphisms of the associated complete local rings by producing quasi-isomorphisms of the controlling differential graded Lie algebras for the corresponding formal deformation theories.
Download or read book The Study of Minimax Inequalities and Applications to Economies and Variational Inequalities written by George Xian-Zhi Yuan and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a unified treatment for the study of the existence of equilibria of abstract economics in topological vector spaces from the viewpoint of Ky Fan minimax inequalities, which strongly depend on his infinite dimensional version of the classical Knaster, Kuratowski and Mazurkiewicz Lemma (KKM Lemma) in 1961. Studied are applications of general system versions of minimax inequalities and generalized quasi-variational inequalities, and random abstract economies and its applications to the system of random quasi-variational inequalities are given.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Chapter I, various (numerical) semigroup-theoretic concepts and constructions are introduced and characterized. Applications in Chapter II are made to the study of Noetherian local one-dimensional analytically irreducible integral domains, especially for the Gorenstein, maximal embedding dimension, and Arf cases, as well as to the so-called Kunz case, a pervasive kind of domain of Cohen-Macaulay type 2.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work comprises a general study of symmetry breaking for compact Lie groups in the context of equivariant bifurcation theory. We begin by extending the theory developed by Field and Richardson for absolutely irreducible representations of finite groups to general irreducible representations of compact Lie groups, while allowing for branches of relative equilibria and phenomena such as the Hopf bifurcation. We also present a general theory of determinacy for irreducible Lie group actions. We show that branching patterns for generic equivariant bifurcation problems defined on irreducible representations persist under perturbations by sufficiently high order non-equivariant terms.

Download or read book Operators of Class C 0 with Spectra in Multiply Connected Regions written by Adele Zucchi and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the present paper the author studies the analogue of the class [italic capital]C0 within a class of operators having a functional calculus based on the algebra of bounded holomorphic functions in a finitely connected domain with an analytic boundary. The latter class consists of the operators having the closure of the domain as a spectral set and having no normal direct summands with spectra contained in the boundary of the domain. (If the domain is the disk the preceding class reduces to the class of completely nonunitary contractions.) The basic properties known for the case of the disk, including the model theory, are established. The extension, even the mere construction of the functional calculus, is not routine, in part because it is unknown whether the analogue of Sz.-Nagy's dilation theorem is true in the author's multiply connected setting.
Download or read book Lie Groups and Subsemigroups with Surjective Exponential Function written by Karl Heinrich Hofmann and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the structure theory of real Lie groups, there is still information lacking about the exponential function. Most notably, there are no general necessary and sufficient conditions for the exponential function to be surjective. It is surprising that for subsemigroups of Lie groups, the question of the surjectivity of the exponential function can be answered. Under nature reductions setting aside the "group part" of the problem, subsemigroups of Lie groups with surjective exponential function are completely classified and explicitly constructed in this memoir. There are fewer than one would think and the proofs are harder than one would expect, requiring some innovative twists. The main protagonists on the scene are SL(2, R) and its universal covering group, almost abelian solvable Lie groups (ie. vector groups extended by homotheties), and compact Lie groups. This text will also be of interest to those working in algebra and algebraic geometry.
Download or read book Algebraic Structure of Pseudocompact Groups written by Dikran N. Dikranjan and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fundamental property of compact spaces - that continuous functions defined on compact spaces are bounded - served as a motivation for E. Hewitt to introduce the notion of a pseudocompact space. The class of pseudocompact spaces proved to be of fundamental importance in set-theoretic topology and its applications. This clear and self-contained exposition offers a comprehensive treatment of the question, When does a group admit an introduction of a pseudocompact Hausdorff topology that makes group operations continuous? Equivalently, what is the algebraic structure of a pseudocompact Hausdorff group? The authors have adopted a unifying approach that covers all known results and leads to new ones, Results in the book are free of any additional set-theoretic assumptions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we develop a concrete description of connections on principal bundles, possibly non-trivial, over compact surfaces and use this description to construct the Yang-Mills measure which underlies the Euclidean quantum theory of gauge fields, involving compact gauge groups, on compact connected two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds (possibly with boundary). Using this measure we compute expectation values of important random variables, the Wilson loops variables, corresponding to a broad class of configurations of loops on the surface.
Download or read book The Finite Irreducible Linear 2 Groups of Degree 4 written by Dane Laurence Flannery and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir contains a complete classification of the finite irreducible 2-subgroups of GL(4, C). Specifically, the author provides a parametrized list of representatives for the conjugacy classes of such groups, where each representative is defined by generating a set of monomial matrices. The problem is treated by a variety of techniques, including: elementary character theory; a method for describing Hasse diagrams of submodule lattices; and calculation of 2-cohomology by means of the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence. Related questions concerning isomorphism between the listed groups and Schur indices of their defining characters are also considered

This book was released on 1996 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of simple algebraic groups is important in many areas of mathematics. The authors of this book investigate the subgroups of certain types of simple algebraic groups and obtain a complete description of all those subgroups which are themselves simple. This description is particularly useful in understanding centralizers of subgroups and restrictions of representations.
Download or read book L Functions for the Orthogonal Group written by David Ginzburg and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the authors establish global Rankin Selberg integrals which determine the standard [italic capital]L function for the group [italic capitals]GL[subscript italic]r x [italic capital]Gʹ, where [italic capital]Gʹ is an isometry group of a nondegenerate symmetric form. The class of automorphic representations considered here is for any pair [capital Greek]Pi1 [otimes/dyadic/Kronecker/tensor product symbol] [capital Greek]Pi2 where [capital Greek]Pi1 is generic cuspidal for [italic capitals]GL[subscript italic]r([italic capital]A) and [capital Greek]Pi2 is cuspidal for [italic capital]Gʹ([italic capital]A). The construction of these [italic capital]L functions involves the use of certain new "models" of local representations; these models generalize the usual generic models. The authors also computer local unramified factors in a new way using geometric ideas.
