Download or read book Generalized Symplectic Geometries and the Index of Families of Elliptic Problems written by Liviu I. Nicolaescu and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, an index theorem is proved for arbitrary families of elliptic boundary value problems for Dirac operators and a surgery formula for the index of a family of Dirac operators on a closed manifold. Also obtained is a very general result on the cobordism invariance of the index of a family. All results are established by first symplectically rephrasing the problems and then using a generalized symplectic reduction technique. This provides a unified approach to all possible parameter spaces and all possible symmetries of a Dirac operator (eigh symmetries in the real case and two in the complex case). This text will also be of interest to those working in geometry and topology.

Download or read book The Maslov Index in Symplectic Banach Spaces written by Bernhelm Booß-Bavnbek and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors consider a curve of Fredholm pairs of Lagrangian subspaces in a fixed Banach space with continuously varying weak symplectic structures. Assuming vanishing index, they obtain intrinsically a continuously varying splitting of the total Banach space into pairs of symplectic subspaces. Using such decompositions the authors define the Maslov index of the curve by symplectic reduction to the classical finite-dimensional case. The authors prove the transitivity of repeated symplectic reductions and obtain the invariance of the Maslov index under symplectic reduction while recovering all the standard properties of the Maslov index. As an application, the authors consider curves of elliptic operators which have varying principal symbol, varying maximal domain and are not necessarily of Dirac type. For this class of operator curves, the authors derive a desuspension spectral flow formula for varying well-posed boundary conditions on manifolds with boundary and obtain the splitting formula of the spectral flow on partitioned manifolds.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume and Stochastic Processes, Physics and Geometry: New Interplays I present state-of-the-art research currently unfolding at the interface between mathematics and physics. Included are select articles from the international conference held in Leipzig (Germany) in honor of Sergio Albeverio's sixtieth birthday. The theme of the conference, "Infinite Dimensional (Stochastic) Analysis and Quantum Physics", was chosen to reflect Albeverio's wide-ranging scientific interests. The articles in these books reflect that broad range of interests and provide a detailed overview highlighting the deep interplay among stochastic processes, mathematical physics, and geometry. The contributions are written by internationally recognized experts in the fields of stochastic analysis, linear and nonlinear (deterministic and stochastic) PDEs, infinite dimensional analysis, functional analysis, commutative and noncommutative probability theory, integrable systems, quantum and statistical mechanics, geometric quantization, and neural networks. Also included are applications in biology and other areas. Most of the contributions are high-level research papers. However, there are also some overviews on topics of general interest. The articles selected for publication in these volumes were specifically chosen to introduce readers to advanced topics, to emphasize interdisciplinary connections, and to stress future research directions. Volume I contains contributions from invited speakers; Volume II contains additional contributed papers. Members of the Canadian Mathematical Society may order at the AMS member price.

Download or read book Geometric Aspects of Partial Differential Equations written by Krzysztof Wojciechowski and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1999 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of papers by leading researchers gives a broad picture of current research directions in geometric aspects of partial differential equations. Based on lectures presented at a Minisymposium on Spectral Invariants - Heat Equation Approach, held in September 1998 at Roskilde University in Denmark, the book provides both a careful exposition of new perspectives in classical index theory and an introduction to currently active areas of the field. Presented here are new index theorems as well as new calculations of the eta-invariant, of the spectral flow, of the Maslov index, of Seiberg-Witten monopoles, heat kernels, determinants, non-commutative residues, and of the Ray-Singer torsion. New types of boundary value problems for operators of Dirac type and generalizations to manifolds with cuspidal ends, to non-compact and to infinite-dimensional manifolds are also discussed. Throughout the book, the use of advanced analysis methods for gaining geometric insight emerges as a central theme. Aimed at graduate students and researchers, this book would be suitable as a text for an advanced graduate topics course on geometric aspects of partial differential equations and spectral invariants.

Download or read book Short Time Geometry of Random Heat Kernels written by Richard Bucher Sowers and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume studies the behaviour of a random heat kernel associated with a stochastic partial differential equation, and gives short-time expansion of this heat kernel. The author finds that the dominant exponential term is classical and depends only on the Riemannian distance function. The second exponential term is a work term and also has classical meaning. There is also a third non-negligible exponential term which blows up. The author finds an expression for this third exponential term which involves a random translation of the index form and the equations of Jacobi fields. In the process, he develops a method to approximate the heat kernel to any arbitrary degree of precision.
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 Controllability Stabilization and the Regulator Problem for Random Differential Systems written by Russell Johnson and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume develops a systematic study of time-dependent control processes. The basic problem of null controllability of linear systems is first considered. Using methods of ergodic theory and topological dynamics, general local null controllability criteria are given. Then the subtle question of global null controllability is studied. Next, the random linear feedback and stabilization problem is posed and solved. Using concepts of exponential dichotomy and rotation number for linear Hamiltonian systems, a solution of the Riccati equation is obtained which has extremely good robustness properties and which also preserves all the smoothness and recurrence properties of the coefficients. Finally, a general version of the local nonlinear feedback stabilization problem is solved.

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.
Download or read book Axiomatic Stable Homotopy Theory written by Mark Hovey and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We define and investigate a class of categories with formal properties similar to those of the homotopy category of spectra. This class includes suitable versions of the derived category of modules over a commutative ring, or of comodules over a commutative Hopf algebra, and is closed under Bousfield localization. We study various notions of smallness, questions about representability of (co)homology functors, and various kinds of localization. We prove theorems analogous to those of Hopkins and Smith about detection of nilpotence and classification of thick subcategories. We define the class of Noetherian stable homotopy categories, and investigate their special properties. Finally, we prove that a number of categories occurring in nature (including those mentioned above) satisfy our axioms.

Download or read book Some Connections between Isoperimetric and Sobolev type Inequalities written by Serguei Germanovich Bobkov and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Borel probability measures on metric spaces, this text studies the interplay between isoperimetric and Sobolev-type inequalities. In particular the question of finding optimal constants via isoperimetric quantities is explored. Also given are necessary and sufficient conditions for the equivalence between the extremality of some sets in the isoperimetric problem and the validity of some analytic inequalities. The book devotes much attention to: the probability distributions on the real line; the normalized Lebesgue measure on the Euclidean sheres; and the canonical Gaussian measure on the Euclidean space.
