Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is dedicated to the memory of Shoshichi Kobayashi, and gathers contributions from distinguished researchers working on topics close to his research areas. The book is organized into three parts, with the first part presenting an overview of Professor Shoshichi Kobayashi’s career. This is followed by two expository course lectures (the second part) on recent topics in extremal Kähler metrics and value distribution theory, which will be helpful for graduate students in mathematics interested in new topics in complex geometry and complex analysis. Lastly, the third part of the volume collects authoritative research papers on differential geometry and complex analysis. Professor Shoshichi Kobayashi was a recognized international leader in the areas of differential and complex geometry. He contributed crucial ideas that are still considered fundamental in these fields. The book will be of interest to researchers in the fields of differential geometry, complex geometry, and several complex variables geometry, as well as to graduate students in mathematics.
Download or read book L2 Approaches in Several Complex Variables written by Takeo Ohsawa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this monograph is to present the current status of a rapidly developing part of several complex variables, motivated by the applicability of effective results to algebraic geometry and differential geometry. Highlighted are the new precise results on the L2 extension of holomorphic functions. In Chapter 1, the classical questions of several complex variables motivating the development of this field are reviewed after necessary preparations from the basic notions of those variables and of complex manifolds such as holomorphic functions, pseudoconvexity, differential forms, and cohomology. In Chapter 2, the L2 method of solving the d-bar equation is presented emphasizing its differential geometric aspect. In Chapter 3, a refinement of the Oka–Cartan theory is given by this method. The L2 extension theorem with an optimal constant is included, obtained recently by Z. Błocki and by Q.-A. Guan and X.-Y. Zhou separately. In Chapter 4, various results on the Bergman kernel are presented, including recent works of Maitani–Yamaguchi, Berndtsson, and Guan–Zhou. Most of these results are obtained by the L2 method. In the last chapter, rather specific results are discussed on the existence and classification of certain holomorphic foliations and Levi flat hypersurfaces as their stables sets. These are also applications of the L2 method obtained during these 15 years.
Download or read book Metrics of Positive Scalar Curvature and Generalised Morse Functions Part I written by Mark P. Walsh and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well known that isotopic metrics of positive scalar curvature are concordant. Whether or not the converse holds is an open question, at least in dimensions greater than four. The author shows that for a particular type of concordance, constructed using the surgery techniques of Gromov and Lawson, this converse holds in the case of closed simply connected manifolds of dimension at least five.
Download or read book Iterated Function Systems Moments and Transformations of Infinite Matrices written by Palle E. T. Jørgensen and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors study the moments of equilibrium measures for iterated function systems (IFSs) and draw connections to operator theory. Their main object of study is the infinite matrix which encodes all the moment data of a Borel measure on $\mathbb{R}^d$ or $\mathbb{C}$. To encode the salient features of a given IFS into precise moment data, they establish an interdependence between IFS equilibrium measures, the encoding of the sequence of moments of these measures into operators, and a new correspondence between the IFS moments and this family of operators in Hilbert space. For a given IFS, the authors' aim is to establish a functorial correspondence in such a way that the geometric transformations of the IFS turn into transformations of moment matrices, or rather transformations of the operators that are associated with them.
Download or read book Q Valued Functions Revisited written by Camillo De Lellis and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this memoir the authors revisit Almgren's theory of $Q$-valued functions, which are functions taking values in the space $\mathcal{A}_Q(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ of unordered $Q$-tuples of points in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. In particular, the authors: give shorter versions of Almgren's proofs of the existence of $\mathrm{Dir}$-minimizing $Q$-valued functions, of their Holder regularity, and of the dimension estimate of their singular set; propose an alternative, intrinsic approach to these results, not relying on Almgren's biLipschitz embedding $\xi: \mathcal{A}_Q(\mathbb{R}^{n})\to\mathbb{R}^{N(Q,n)}$; improve upon the estimate of the singular set of planar $\mathrm{D}$-minimizing functions by showing that it consists of isolated points.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let $A$ be a finite abelian group. The author sets up an algebraic framework for studying $A$-equivariant complex-orientable cohomology theories in terms of a suitable kind of equivariant formal group. He computes the equivariant cohomology of many spaces in these terms, including projective bundles (and associated Gysin maps), Thom spaces, and infinite Grassmannians.
Download or read book The Schrodinger Model for the Minimal Representation of the Indefinite Orthogonal Group O p q written by Toshiyuki Kobayashi and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors introduce a generalization of the Fourier transform, denoted by $\mathcal{F}_C$, on the isotropic cone $C$ associated to an indefinite quadratic form of signature $(n_1,n_2)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ ($n=n_1+n_2$: even). This transform is in some sense the unique and natural unitary operator on $L^2(C)$, as is the case with the Euclidean Fourier transform $\mathcal{F}_{\mathbb{R}^n}$ on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$. Inspired by recent developments of algebraic representation theory of reductive groups, the authors shed new light on classical analysis on the one hand, and give the global formulas for the $L^2$-model of the minimal representation of the simple Lie group $G=O(n_1+1,n_2+1)$ on the other hand.

Download or read book Supported Blow Up and Prescribed Scalar Curvature on S n written by Man Chun Leung and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author expounds the notion of supported blow-up and applies it to study the renowned Nirenberg/Kazdan-Warner problem on $S^n$. When $n \ge 5$ and under some mild conditions, he shows that blow-up at a point with positive definite Hessian has to be a supported isolated blow-up, which, when combined with a uniform volume bound, is a removable singularity. A new asymmetric condition is introduced to exclude single simple blow-up. These enable the author to obtain a general existence theorem for $n \ge 5$ with rather natural condition.
Download or read book Infinite dimensional Representations of 2 groups written by John C. Baez and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “$2$-group'' is a category equipped with a multiplication satisfying laws like those of a group. Just as groups have representations on vector spaces, $2$-groups have representations on “$2$-vector spaces'', which are categories analogous to vector spaces. Unfortunately, Lie $2$-groups typically have few representations on the finite-dimensional $2$-vector spaces introduced by Kapranov and Voevodsky. For this reason, Crane, Sheppeard and Yetter introduced certain infinite-dimensional $2$-vector spaces called ``measurable categories'' (since they are closely related to measurable fields of Hilbert spaces), and used these to study infinite-dimensional representations of certain Lie $2$-groups. Here they continue this work.
They begin with a detailed study of measurable categories. Then they give a geometrical description of the measurable representations, intertwiners and $2$-intertwiners for any skeletal measurable $2$-group. They study tensor products and direct sums for representations, and various concepts of subrepresentation. They describe direct sums of intertwiners, and sub-intertwiners--features not seen in ordinary group representation theory and study irreducible and indecomposable representations and intertwiners. They also study “irretractable'' representations--another feature not seen in ordinary group representation theory. Finally, they argue that measurable categories equipped with some extra structure deserve to be considered “separable $2$-Hilbert spaces'', and compare this idea to a tentative definition of $2$-Hilbert spaces as representation categories of commutative von Neumann algebras.
Download or read book Extended Graphical Calculus for Categorified Quantum Sl 2 written by Mikhail Khovanov and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A categorification of the Beilinson-Lusztig-MacPherson form of the quantum sl(2) was constructed in a paper (arXiv:0803.3652) by Aaron D. Lauda. Here the authors enhance the graphical calculus introduced and developed in that paper to include two-morphisms between divided powers one-morphisms and their compositions. They obtain explicit diagrammatical formulas for the decomposition of products of divided powers one-morphisms as direct sums of indecomposable one-morphisms; the latter are in a bijection with the Lusztig canonical basis elements.
These formulas have integral coefficients and imply that one of the main results of Lauda's paper--identification of the Grothendieck ring of his 2-category with the idempotented quantum sl(2)--also holds when the 2-category is defined over the ring of integers rather than over a field. A new diagrammatic description of Schur functions is also given and it is shown that the the Jacobi-Trudy formulas for the decomposition of Schur functions into elementary or complete symmetric functions follows from the diagrammatic relations for categorified quantum sl(2).
Download or read book Finite Order Automorphisms and Real Forms of Affine Kac Moody Algebras in the Smooth and Algebraic Category written by Ernst Heintze and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a real or complex (finite dimensional) simple Lie algebra and $\sigma\in\mathrm{Aut}\mathfrak{g}$. The authors study automorphisms of the twisted loop algebra $L(\mathfrak{g},\sigma)$ of smooth $\sigma$-periodic maps from $\mathbb{R}$ to $\mathfrak{g}$ as well as of the ``smooth'' affine Kac-Moody algebra $\hat L(\mathfrak{g},\sigma)$, which is a $2$-dimensional extension of $L(\mathfrak{g},\sigma)$. It turns out that these automorphisms which either preserve or reverse the orientation of loops, and are correspondingly called to be of first and second kind, can be described essentially by curves of automorphisms of $\mathfrak{g}$. If the order of the automorphisms is finite, then the corresponding curves in $\mathrm{Aut}\mathfrak{g}$ allow us to define certain invariants and these turn out to parametrize the conjugacy classes of the automorphisms. If their order is $2$ the authors carry this out in detail and deduce a complete classification of involutions and real forms (which correspond to conjugate linear involutions) of smooth affine Kac-Moody algebras.
The resulting classification can be seen as an extension of Cartan's classification of symmetric spaces, i.e. of involutions on $\mathfrak{g}$. If $\mathfrak{g}$ is compact, then conjugate linear extensions of involutions from $\hat L(\mathfrak{g},\sigma)$ to conjugate linear involutions on $\hat L(\mathfrak{g}_{\mathbb{C}},\sigma_{\mathbb{C}})$ yield a bijection between their conjugacy classes and this gives existence and uniqueness of Cartan decompositions of real forms of complex smooth affine Kac-Moody algebras.
The authors show that their methods work equally well also in the algebraic case where the loops are assumed to have finite Fourier expansions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, the author studies all the elliptic integrable systems, in the sense of C, that is to say, the family of all the $m$-th elliptic integrable systems associated to a $k^\prime$-symmetric space $N=G/G_0$. The author describes the geometry behind this family of integrable systems for which we know how to construct (at least locally) all the solutions. The introduction gives an overview of all the main results, as well as some related subjects and works, and some additional motivations.
