Download or read book Diagram Cohomology and Isovariant Homotopy Theory written by Giora Dula and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1994 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obstruction theoretic methods are introduced into isovariant homotopy theory for a class of spaces with group actions; the latter includes all smooth actions of cyclic groups of prime power order. The central technical result is an equivalence between isovariant homotopy and specific equivariant homotopy theories for diagrams under suitable conditions. This leads to isovariant Whitehead theorems, an obstruction-theoretic approach to isovariant homotopy theory with obstructions in cohomology groups of ordinary and equivalent diagrams, and qualitative computations for rational homotopy groups of certain spaces of isovariant self maps of linear spheres. The computations show that these homotopy groups are often far more complicated than the rational homotopy groups for the corresponding spaces of equivariant self maps. Subsequent work will use these computations to construct new families of smooth actions on spheres that are topologically linear but differentiably nonlinear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let [italic capital]G be a compact Lie group, [italic capitals]EG a contractible free [italic capital]G-space and let [italic capitals]E~G be the unreduced suspension of [italic capitals]EG with one of the cone points as basepoint. Let [italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G be a [italic capital]G-spectrum. Let [italic capital]X+ denote the disjoint union of [italic capital]X and a [italic capital]G-fixed basepoint. Define the [italic capital]G-spectra [italic]f([italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) = [italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G [up arrowhead symbol] [italic capitals]EG+, [italic]c([italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) = [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G), and [italic]t([italic]k[subscript italic capital]G)* = [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) [up arrowhead symbol] [italic capitals]E~G. The last of these is the [italic capital]G-spectrum representing the generalized Tate homology and cohomology theories associated to [italic]k[subscript italic capital]G. Here [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) is the function space spectrum. The authors develop the properties of these theories, illustrating the manner in which they generalize the classical Tate-Swan theories.

Download or read book Filtrations on the Homology of Algebraic Varieties written by Eric M. Friedlander and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1994 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work provides a detailed exposition of a classical topic from a very recent viewpoint. Friedlander and Mazur describe some foundational aspects of ``Lawson homology'' for complex projective algebraic varieties, a homology theory defined in terms of homotopy groups of spaces of algebraic cycles. Attention is paid to methods of group completing abelian topological monoids. The authors study properties of Chow varieties, especially in connection with algebraic correspondences relating algebraic varieties. Operations on Lawson homology are introduced and analysed. These operations lead to a filtration on the singular homology of algebraic varieties, which is identified in terms of correspondences and related to classical filtrations of Hodge and Grothendieck.

Download or read book Orthogonal Decompositions and Functional Limit Theorems for Random Graph Statistics written by Svante Janson and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1994 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We define an orthogonal basis in the space of real-valued functions of a random graph, and prove a functional limit theorem for this basis. Limit theorems for other functions then follow by decomposition. The results include limit theorems for the two random graph models [italic]G[subscript italic]n, [subscript italic]p and [italic]G[subscript italic]n, [subscript italic]m as well as functional limit theorems for the evolution of a random graph and results on the maximum of a function during the evolution. Both normal and non-normal limits are obtained. As examples, applications are given to subgraph counts and to vertex degrees.

Download or read book Some Special Properties of the Adjunction Theory for 3 Folds in mathbb P 5 written by Mauro Beltrametti and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1995 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work studies the adjunction theory of smooth 3-folds in P]5. Because of the many special restrictions on such 3-folds, the structure of the adjunction theoretic reductions are especially simple, e.g. the 3-fold equals its first reduction, the second reduction is smooth except possibly for a few explicit low degrees, and the formulae relating the projective invariants of the given 3-fold with the invariants of its second reduction are very explicit. Tables summarizing the classification of such 3-folds up to degree 12 are included. Many of the general results are shown to hold for smooth projective n-folds embedded in P]N with N 2n -1.

Download or read book Lebesgue Theory in the Bidual of C X written by Samuel Kaplan and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is based upon our monograph "The Bidual of [italic capital]C([italic capital]X)" ([italic capital]X being compact). We generalize to the bidual the theory of Lebesgue integration, with respect to Radon measures on [italic capital]X, of bounded functions. The bidual of [italic capital]C([italic capital]X) contains this space of bounded functions, but is much more 'spacious', so the body of results can be expected to be richer. Finally, we show that by projection onto the space of bounded functions, the standard theory is obtained.

Download or read book The Topological Classification of Stratified Spaces written by Shmuel Weinberger and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the theory for stratified spaces, along with important examples and applications, that is analogous to the surgery theory for manifolds. In the first expository account of this field, Weinberger provides topologists with a new way of looking at the classification theory of singular spaces with his original results. Divided into three parts, the book begins with an overview of modern high-dimensional manifold theory. Rather than including complete proofs of all theorems, Weinberger demonstrates key constructions, gives convenient formulations, and shows the usefulness of the technology. Part II offers the parallel theory for stratified spaces. Here, the topological category is most completely developed using the methods of "controlled topology." Many examples illustrating the topological invariance and noninvariance of obstructions and characteristic classes are provided. Applications for embeddings and immersions of manifolds, for the geometry of group actions, for algebraic varieties, and for rigidity theorems are found in Part III. This volume will be of interest to topologists, as well as mathematicians in other fields such as differential geometry, operator theory, and algebraic geometry.

Download or read book Littlewood Paley Theory on Spaces of Homogeneous Type and the Classical Function Spaces written by Yongsheng Han and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1994 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, Han and Sawyer extend Littlewood-Paley theory, Besov spaces, and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces to the general setting of a space of homogeneous type. For this purpose, they establish a suitable analogue of the Calder 'on reproducing formula and use it to extend classical results on atomic decomposition, interpolation, and T1 and Tb theorems. Some new results in the classical setting are also obtained: atomic decompositions with vanishing b-moment, and Littlewood-Paley characterizations of Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces with only half the usual smoothness and cancellation conditions on the approximate identity.

Download or read book Finite Rational Matrix Groups written by Gabriele Nebe and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1995 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of finite rational matrix groups reduces to the investigation of the maximal finite irreducible matrix groups and their natural lattices, which often turn out to have rather beautiful geometric and arithmetic properties. This book presents a full classification in dimensions up to 23 and with restrictions in dimensions and p +1 and p-1 for all prime numbers p. Nonmaximal finite groups might act on several types of lattices and therefore embed into more than one maximal finite group. This gives rise to a simplicial complex interrelating the maximal finite groups and measuring the complexity of the dimension. Group theory, integral representation theory, arithmetic theory of quadratic forms and algorithmic methods are used.

Download or read book Degree 16 Standard L function of GSp 2 times GSp 2 written by Dihua Jiang and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automorphic L-functions, introduced by Robert Langlands in the 1960s, are natural extensions of such classical L-functions as the Riemann zeta function, Hecke L-functions, etc. They form an important part of the Langlands Program, which seeks to establish connections among number theory, representation theory, and geometry. This book offers, via the Rankin-Selberg method, a thorough and comprehensive examination of the degree 16 standard L-function of the product of two rank two symplectic similitude groups, which includes the study of the global integral of Rankin-Selberg type and local integrals, analytic properties of certain Eisenstein series of symplectic groups, and the relevant residue representations.

Download or read book Stable Networks and Product Graphs written by Tomás Feder and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1995 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structural and algorithmic study of stability in nonexpansive networks is based on a representation of the possible assignments of Boolean values for a network as vertices in a Boolean hypercube under the associated Hamming metric. This global view takes advantage of the median properties of the hypercube, and extends to metric networks, where individual values are now chosen from the finite metric spaces and combined by means of an additive product operation. The relationship between products of metric spaces and products of graphs then establishes a connection between isometric representation in graphs and nonexpansiveness in metric networks.

Download or read book Wavelet Methods for Pointwise Regularity and Local Oscillations of Functions written by Stéphane Jaffard and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate several topics related to the local behavior of functions: pointwise Hölder regularity, local scaling invariance and very oscillatory "chirp-like" behaviors. Our main tool is to relate these notions to two-microlocal conditions which are defined either on the Littlewood-Paley decomposition or on the wavelet transform. We give characterizations and the main properties of these two-microlocal spaces and we give several applications, such as bounds on the dimension of the set of Hölder singularities of a function, Sobolev regularity of trace functions, and chirp expansions of specific functions.

Download or read book Global Aspects of Homoclinic Bifurcations of Vector Fields written by Ale Jan Homburg and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author investigates a class of smooth one parameter families of vector fields on some $n$-dimensional manifold, exhibiting a homoclinic bifurcation. That is, he considers generic families $x_\mu$, where $x_0$ has a distinguished hyperbolic singularity $p$ and a homoclinic orbit; an orbit converging to $p$ both for positive and negative time. It is assumed that this homoclinic orbit is of saddle-saddle type, characterized by the existence of well-defined directions along which it converges to the singularity $p$. The study is not confined to a small neighborhood of the homoclinic orbit. Instead, the position of the stable and unstable set of the homoclinic orbit is incorporated and it is shown that homoclinic bifurcations can lead to complicated bifurcations and dynamics, including phenomena like intermittency and annihilation of suspended horseshoes.

Download or read book Tilting in Abelian Categories and Quasitilted Algebras written by Dieter Happel and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1996 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We generalize tilting with respect to a tilting module of projective dimension at most one for an Artin algebra to tilting with respect to a torsion pair in an Abelian category. Our construction is motivated by the connection between tilting and derived categories. We develop a general theory for such tilting, and are led to a generalization of tilting algebras which we call quasitilted algebras. This class also contains the canonical algebras, and we show that the quasitilted algebras are characterized by having global dimension at most two and each indecomposable module having projective dimension at most one or injective dimension at most one. We also give other characterizations of quasitilted algebras, and give methods for constructing such algebras.

Download or read book The Major Counting of Nonintersecting Lattice Paths and Generating Functions for Tableaux written by Christian Krattenthaler and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1995 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A theory of counting nonintersecting lattice paths by the major index and its generalizations is developed. We obtain determinantal expressions for the corresponding generating functions for families of nonintersecting lattice paths with given starting points and given final points, where the starting points lie on a line parallel to [italic]x + [italic]y = 0. In some cases these determinants can be evaluated to result in simple products. As applications we compute the generating function for tableaux with [italic]p odd rows, with at most [italic]c columns, and with parts between 1 and [italic]n. Moreover, we compute the generating function for the same kind of tableaux which in addition have only odd parts. We thus also obtain a closed form for the generating function for symmetric plane partitions with at most [italic]n rows, with parts between 1 and [italic]c, and with [italic]p odd entries on the main diagonal. In each case the result is a simple product. By summing with respect to [italic]p we provide new proofs of the Bender-Knuth and MacMahon (ex-)conjectures, which were first proved by Andrews, Gordon, and Macdonald. The link between nonintersecting lattice paths and tableaux is given by variations of the Knuth correspondence.
