Download or read book The Structure of Certain Quasisymmetric Groups written by Aimo Hinkkanen and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1990 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A quasisymmetric mapping is a homeomorphism of the circle with the property that it does not distort cross ratios too badly. By a theorem of Beurling and Ahlfors such maps are precisely the boundary values of quasiconformal homeomorphisms of the disk. A group [italic]G of quasisymmetric mappings of the circle is called a quasisymmetric group if there is a uniform upper bound on the distortion of each [script lowercase]g in [italic]G. If this upper bound is [italic]K we call [italic]G a [italic]K-quasisymmetric group. In this paper the author continues the study of these groups, in particular the question of when such groups are quasisymmetrically conjugate to conformal groups.

Taken together, the articles provide the reader with a panorama of activity in complex analysis and quasiconformal mappings, drawn by a number of leading figures in the field. The companion volume (Contemporary Mathematics, Volume 554) is devoted to general relativity, geometry, and PDE.
Download or read book A Generalization of Riemann Mappings and Geometric Structures on a Space of Domains in C n written by Stephen Semmes and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1992 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Similar in philosophy to the study of moduli spaces in algebraic geometry, the central theme of this book is that spaces of (pseudoconvex) domains should admit geometrical structures that reflect the complex geometry of the underlying domains in a natural way. With its unusual geometric perspective of some topics in several complex variables, this book appeals to those who view much of mathematics in broadly geometrical terms.

Download or read book New Directions in Locally Compact Groups written by Pierre-Emmanuel Caprace and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of expository articles by a range of established experts and newer researchers provides an overview of the recent developments in the theory of locally compact groups. It includes introductory articles on totally disconnected locally compact groups, profinite groups, p-adic Lie groups and the metric geometry of locally compact groups. Concrete examples, including groups acting on trees and Neretin groups, are discussed in detail. An outline of the emerging structure theory of locally compact groups beyond the connected case is presented through three complementary approaches: Willis' theory of the scale function, global decompositions by means of subnormal series, and the local approach relying on the structure lattice. An introduction to lattices, invariant random subgroups and L2-invariants, and a brief account of the Burger–Mozes construction of simple lattices are also included. A final chapter collects various problems suggesting future research directions.
Download or read book Imbeddings of Three Manifold Groups written by Francisco González-Acuña and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1992 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper deals with the two broad questions of how 3-manifold groups imbed in one another and how such imbeddings relate to any corresponding [lowercase Greek]Pi1-injective maps. In particular, we are interested in 1) determining which 3-manifold groups are no cohopfian, that is, which 3-manifold groups imbed properly in themselves, 2) determining the knot subgroups of a knot group, and 3) determining when surgery on a knot [italic]K yields a lens (or "lens-like") space and the relationship of such a surgery to the knot-subgroup structure of [lowercase Greek]Pi1([italic]S3 - [italic]K). Our work requires the formulation of a deformation theorem for [lowercase Greek]Pi1-injective maps between certain kinds of Haken manifolds and the development of some algebraic tools.
Download or read book The Subregular Germ of Orbital Integrals written by Thomas Callister Hales and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1992 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An integral formula for the subregular germ of a [italic small capital]K-orbital integral is developed. The formula holds for any reductive group over a [italic]p-adic field of characteristic zero. This expression of the subregular germ is obtained by applying Igusa's theory of asymptotic expansions. The integral formula is applied to the question of the transfer of a [italic small capital]K-orbital integral to an endoscopic group. It is shown that the quadratic characters arising in the subregular germs are compatible with the transfer. Details of the transfer are given for the subregular germ of unitary groups.
Download or read book The Inverse Problem of the Calculus of Variations for Ordinary Differential Equations written by Ian Anderson and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1992 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph explores various aspects of the inverse problem of the calculus of variations for systems of ordinary differential equations. The main problem centres on determining the existence and degree of generality of Lagrangians whose system of Euler-Lagrange equations coicides with a given system of ordinary differential equations. The authors rederive the basic necessary and sufficient conditions of Douglas for second order equations and extend them to equations of higher order using methods of the variational bicomplex of Tulcyjew, Vinogradov, and Tsujishita. The authors present an algorithm, based upon exterior differential systems techniques, for solving the inverse problem for second order equations. a number of new examples illustrate the effectiveness of this approach.
Download or read book In the Tradition of Ahlfors Bers VII written by Ara S. Basmajian and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2017-08-17 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ahlfors–Bers Colloquia commemorate the mathematical legacy of Lars Ahlfors and Lipman Bers. The core of this legacy lies in the fields of geometric function theory, Teichmüller theory, hyperbolic geometry, and partial differential equations. Today we see the influence of Ahlfors and Bers on algebraic geometry, mathematical physics, dynamics, probability, geometric group theory, number theory and topology. Recent years have seen a flowering of this legacy with an increased interest in their work. This current volume contains articles on a wide variety of subjects that are central to this legacy. These include papers in Kleinian groups, classical Riemann surface theory, Teichmüller theory, mapping class groups, geometric group theory, and statistical mechanics.
Download or read book Orientation and the Leray Schauder Theory for Fully Nonlinear Elliptic Boundary Value Problems written by Patrick Fitzpatrick and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this work is to develop an additive, integer-valued degree theory for the class of quasilinear Fredholm mappings. This class is sufficiently large that, within its framework, one can study general fully nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems. A degree for the whole class of quasilinear Fredholm mappings must necessarily accommodate sign-switching of the degree along admissible homotopies. The authors introduce ''parity'', a homotopy invariant of paths of linear Fredholm operators having invertible endpoints. The parity provides a complete description of the possible changes in sign of the degree and thereby permits use of the degree to prove multiplicity and bifurcation theorems for quasilinear Fredholm mappings. Applications are given to the study of fully nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems.
Download or read book G Categories written by Robert Gordon and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1993 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A [italic]G-category is a category on which a group [italic]G acts. This work studies the 2-category [italic]G-cat of [italic]G-categories, [italic]G-functors (functors which commute with the action of [italic]G) and [italic]G-natural transformations (natural transformations which commute with the [italic]G-action). There is a particular emphasis on the relationship between a [italic]G-category and its stable subcategory, the largest sub-[italic]G-category on which [italic]G operates trivially. Also contained here are some very general applications of the theory to various additive [italic]G-categories and to [italic]G-topoi.
Download or read book On the Existence of Feller Semigroups with Boundary Conditions written by Kazuaki Taira and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1992 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper is devoted to the functional analytic approach to the problem of construction of Feller semigroups with Ventcel' (Wentzell) boundary conditions. This paper considers the non-transversal case and solves from the viewpoint of functional analysis the problem of construction of Feller semigroups for elliptic Waldenfels operators. Intuitively, our result may be stated as follows: One can construct a Feller semigroup corresponding to such a diffusion phenomenon that a Markovian particle moves both by jumps and continuously in the state space until it "dies" at which time it reaches the set where the absorption phenomenon occurs.
