Book Nilpotence and Periodicity in Stable Homotopy Theory

Download or read book Nilpotence and Periodicity in Stable Homotopy Theory written by Douglas C. Ravenel and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1992-11-08 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nilpotence and Periodicity in Stable Homotopy Theory describes some major advances made in algebraic topology in recent years, centering on the nilpotence and periodicity theorems, which were conjectured by the author in 1977 and proved by Devinatz, Hopkins, and Smith in 1985. During the last ten years a number of significant advances have been made in homotopy theory, and this book fills a real need for an up-to-date text on that topic. Ravenel's first few chapters are written with a general mathematical audience in mind. They survey both the ideas that lead up to the theorems and their applications to homotopy theory. The book begins with some elementary concepts of homotopy theory that are needed to state the problem. This includes such notions as homotopy, homotopy equivalence, CW-complex, and suspension. Next the machinery of complex cobordism, Morava K-theory, and formal group laws in characteristic p are introduced. The latter portion of the book provides specialists with a coherent and rigorous account of the proofs. It includes hitherto unpublished material on the smash product and chromatic convergence theorems and on modular representations of the symmetric group.

Book Asymptotic Behaviour of Tame Harmonic Bundles and an Application to Pure Twistor  D  Modules  Part 1

Download or read book Asymptotic Behaviour of Tame Harmonic Bundles and an Application to Pure Twistor D Modules Part 1 written by Takuro Mochizuki and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author studies the asymptotic behaviour of tame harmonic bundles. First he proves a local freeness of the prolongment of deformed holomorphic bundle by an increasing order. Then he obtains the polarized mixed twistor structure from the data on the divisors. As one of the applications, he obtains the norm estimate of holomorphic or flat sections by weight filtrations of the monodromies. As another application, the author establishes the correspondence of semisimple regular holonomic $D$-modules and polarizable pure imaginary pure twistor $D$-modules through tame pure imaginary harmonic bundles, which is a conjecture of C. Sabbah. Then the regular holonomic version of M. Kashiwara's conjecture follows from the results of Sabbah and the author.

Book Relatively Hyperbolic Groups  Intrinsic Geometry  Algebraic Properties  and Algorithmic Problems

Download or read book Relatively Hyperbolic Groups Intrinsic Geometry Algebraic Properties and Algorithmic Problems written by Denis V. Osin and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this the authors obtain an isoperimetric characterization of relatively hyperbolicity of a groups with respect to a collection of subgroups. This allows them to apply classical combinatorial methods related to van Kampen diagrams to obtain relative analogues of some well-known algebraic and geometric properties of ordinary hyperbolic groups. There is also an introduction and study of the notion of a relatively quasi-convex subgroup of a relatively hyperbolic group and solve somenatural algorithmic problems.

Book The Calculus of One Sided  M  Ideals and Multipliers in Operator Spaces

Download or read book The Calculus of One Sided M Ideals and Multipliers in Operator Spaces written by David P. Blecher and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of one-sided $M$-ideals and multipliers of operator spaces is simultaneously a generalization of classical $M$-ideals, ideals in operator algebras, and aspects of the theory of Hilbert $C*$-modules and their maps. Here we give a systematic exposition of this theory. The main part of this memoir consists of a 'calculus' for one-sided $M$-ideals and multipliers, i.e. a collection of the properties of one-sided $M$-ideals and multipliers with respect to the basic constructions met in functional analysis. This is intended to be a reference tool for 'noncommutative functional analysts' who may encounter a one-sided $M$-ideal or multiplier in their work.

Book An Analogue of a Reductive Algebraic Monoid Whose Unit Group Is a Kac Moody Group

Download or read book An Analogue of a Reductive Algebraic Monoid Whose Unit Group Is a Kac Moody Group written by Claus Mokler and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2005 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By an easy generalization of the Tannaka-Krein reconstruction we associate to the category of admissible representations of the category ${\mathcal O}$ of a Kac-Moody algebra, and its category of admissible duals, a monoid with a coordinate ring. The Kac-Moody group is the Zariski open dense unit group of this monoid. The restriction of the coordinate ring to the Kac-Moody group is the algebra of strongly regular functions introduced by V. Kac and D. Peterson. This monoid has similar structural properties as a reductive algebraic monoid. In particular it is unit regular, its idempotents related to the faces of the Tits cone. It has Bruhat and Birkhoff decompositions. The Kac-Moody algebra is isomorphic to the Lie algebra of this monoid.

Book Measure Theoretic Laws for lim sup Sets

Download or read book Measure Theoretic Laws for lim sup Sets written by Victor Beresnevich and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given a compact metric space $(\Omega,d)$ equipped with a non-atomic, probability measure $m$ and a positive decreasing function $\psi$, we consider a natural class of lim sup subsets $\Lambda(\psi)$ of $\Omega$. The classical lim sup set $W(\psi)$ of `$\p$-approximable' numbers in the theory of metric Diophantine approximation fall within this class. We establish sufficient conditions (which are also necessary under some natural assumptions) for the $m$-measure of $\Lambda(\psi)$to be either positive or full in $\Omega$ and for the Hausdorff $f$-measure to be infinite. The classical theorems of Khintchine-Groshev and Jarník concerning $W(\psi)$ fall into our general framework. The main results provide a unifying treatment of numerous problems in metric Diophantineapproximation including those for real, complex and $p$-adic fields associated with both independent and dependent quantities. Applications also include those to Kleinian groups and rational maps. Compared to previous works our framework allows us to successfully remove many unnecessary conditions and strengthen fundamental results such as Jarník's theorem and the Baker-Schmidt theorem. In particular, the strengthening of Jarník's theorem opens up the Duffin-Schaeffer conjecturefor Hausdorff measures.

Book Weil Petersson Metric on the Universal Teichmuller Space

Download or read book Weil Petersson Metric on the Universal Teichmuller Space written by Leon Armenovich Takhtadzhi︠a︡n and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this memoir, we prove that the universal Teichmuller space $T(1)$ carries a new structure of a complex Hilbert manifold and show that the connected component of the identity of $T(1)$ -- the Hilbert submanifold $T {0 (1)$ -- is a topological group. We define a Weil-Petersson metric on $T(1)$ by Hilbert space inner products on tangent spaces, compute its Riemann curvature tensor, and show that $T(1)$ is a Kahler-Einstein manifold with negative Ricci and sectional curvatures. We introduce and compute Mumford-Miller-Morita characteristic forms for the vertical tangent bundle of the universal Teichmuller curve fibration over the universal Teichmuller space. As an application, we derive Wolpert curvature formulas for the finite-dimensional Teichmuller spaces from the formulas for the universal Teichmuller space. We study in detail the Hilbert manifold structure on $T {0 (1)$ and characterize points on $T {0 (1)$ in terms of Bers and pre-Bers embeddings by proving that the Grunsky operators $B {1 $ and The results of this memoir were presented in our e-prints: Weil-Petersson metric on the universal Teichmuller space I.

Book The Beilinson Complex and Canonical Rings of Irregular Surfaces

Download or read book The Beilinson Complex and Canonical Rings of Irregular Surfaces written by Alberto Canonaco and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important theorem by Beilinson describes the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $\mathbb{P n$, yielding in particular a resolution of every coherent sheaf on $\mathbb{P n$ in terms of the vector bundles $\Omega {\mathbb{P n j(j)$ for $0\le j\le n$. This theorem is here extended to weighted projective spaces. To this purpose we consider, instead of the usual category of coherent sheaves on $\mathbb{P ({\rm w )$ (the weighted projective space of weights $\rm w=({\rm w 0,\dots,{\rm w n)$), a suitable category of graded coherent sheaves (the two categories are equivalent if and only if ${\rm w 0=\cdots={\rm w n=1$, i.e. $\mathbb{P ({\rm w )= \mathbb{P n$), obtained by endowing $\mathbb{P ({\rm w )$ with a natural graded structure sheaf. The resulting graded ringed space $\overline{\mathbb{P ({\rm w )$ is an example of graded scheme (in chapter 1 graded schemes are defined and studied in some greater generality than is needed in the rest of the work). Then in chapter 2 we prove This weighted version of Beilinson's theorem is then applied in chapter 3 to prove a structure theorem for good birational weighted canonical projections of surfaces of general type (i.e., for morphisms, which are birational onto the image, from a minimal surface of general type $S$ into a $3$-dimensional $\mathbb{P ({\rm w )$, induced by $4$ sections $\sigma i\in H0(S,\mathcal{O S({\rm w iK S))$). This is a generalization of a theorem by Catanese and Schreyer (who treated the case of projections into $\mathbb{P 3$), and is mainly interesting for irregular surfaces, since in the regular case a similar but simpler result (due to Catanese) was already known. The theorem essentially states that giving a good birational weighted canonical projection is equivalent to giving a symmetric morphism of (graded) vector bundles on $\overline{\mathbb{P ({\rm w )$, satisfying some suitable conditions. Such a morphism is then explicitly determined in chapter 4 for a family of surfaces with numerical invariant
