This book was released on 1971 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a Lie algebra sheaf L of derivations of a sheaf of rings O on a space X global cohomology groups and local cohomology sheaves are introduced and analyzed. Global and local splitting obstructions for extensions of modules over a Lie algebra sheaf are studied. In the applications considered, L is a Lie algebra sheaf of vector fields on a manifold M, O the structure sheaf of M. For vector bundles E, F on M on which L acts, the existence of invariant differential operators D: E→F whose symbols are preassigned equivariant maps is discussed in terms of these splitting obstructions. Lie algebra sheaves defined by Lie group actions are considered. This theory is applied in particular to the case of a transitive L. The splitting obstructions for extensions of modules over a transitive Lie algebra sheaf are analyzed in detail. The results are then applied to the problem of the existence of invariant connections on locally homogeneous spaces. The obstruction is computed in some examples.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph developed out of the Abendseminar of 1958-1959 at the University of Zürich. The purpose of this monograph is to develop the de Rham cohomology theory, and to apply it to obtain topological invariants of smooth manifolds and fibre bundles. It also addresses the purely algebraic theory of the operation of a Lie algebra in a graded differential algebra.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper collects notations, definitions and facts about distributions, differential graded algebras, continuous cohomology of topological Lie algebras, etc. and state the main results. We then recall the results of Guillemin-Losik, Losik and Haefliger, rewriting them in a form suitable for proving them in somewhat different ways from the original proofs. We prove the main theorems, and the theorem from part one.

Download or read book Lie Groupoids and Lie Algebroids in Differential Geometry written by K. Mackenzie and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1987-06-25 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a striking synthesis of the standard theory of connections in principal bundles and the Lie theory of Lie groupoids. The concept of Lie groupoid is a little-known formulation of the concept of principal bundle and corresponding to the Lie algebra of a Lie group is the concept of Lie algebroid: in principal bundle terms this is the Atiyah sequence. The author's viewpoint is that certain deep problems in connection theory are best addressed by groupoid and Lie algebroid methods. After preliminary chapters on topological groupoids, the author gives the first unified and detailed account of the theory of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids. He then applies this theory to the cohomology of Lie algebroids, re-interpreting connection theory in cohomological terms, and giving criteria for the existence of (not necessarily Riemannian) connections with prescribed curvature form. This material, presented in the last two chapters, is work of the author published here for the first time. This book will be of interest to differential geometers working in general connection theory and to researchers in theoretical physics and other fields who make use of connection theory.

Download or read book Invariant Differential Operators for Quantum Symmetric Spaces written by Gail Letzter and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies quantum invariant differential operators for quantum symmetric spaces in the maximally split case. The main results are quantum versions of theorems of Harish-Chandra and Helgason: There is a Harish-Chandra map which induces an isomorphism between the ring of quantum invariant differential operators and the ring of invariants of a certain Laurent polynomial ring under an action of the restricted Weyl group. Moreover, the image of the center under this map is the entire invariant ring if and only if the underlying irreducible symmetric pair is not of four exceptional types. In the process, the author finds a particularly nice basis for the quantum invariant differential operators that provides a new interpretation of difference operators associated to Macdonald polynomials.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is based on talks given at the Workshop on Categorical Structures for Descent and Galois Theory, Hopf Algebras, and Semiabelian Categories held at The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences (Toronto, ON, Canada). The meeting brought together researchers working in these interrelated areas. This collection of survey and research papers gives an up-to-date account of the many current connections among Galois theories, Hopf algebras, and semiabeliancategories. The book features articles by leading researchers on a wide range of themes, specifically, abstract Galois theory, Hopf algebras, and categorical structures, in particular quantum categories and higher-dimensional structures. Articles are suitable for graduate students and researchers,specifically those interested in Galois theory and Hopf algebras and their categorical unification.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, we study theoretical and practical aspects of computing methods for mathematical modelling of nonlinear systems. A number of computing techniques are considered, such as methods of operator approximation with any given accuracy; operator interpolation techniques including a non-Lagrange interpolation; methods of system representation subject to constraints associated with concepts of causality, memory and stationarity; methods of system representation with an accuracy that is the best within a given class of models; methods of covariance matrix estimation; methods for low-rank matrix approximations; hybrid methods based on a combination of iterative procedures and best operator approximation; and methods for information compression and filtering under condition that a filter model should satisfy restrictions associated with causality and different types of memory. As a result, the book represents a blend of new methods in general computational analysis, and specific, but also generic, techniques for study of systems theory ant its particular branches, such as optimal filtering and information compression. - Best operator approximation, - Non-Lagrange interpolation, - Generic Karhunen-Loeve transform - Generalised low-rank matrix approximation - Optimal data compression - Optimal nonlinear filtering

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whoever you are! How can I but offer you divine leaves . . . ? Walt Whitman The object of study in modern differential geometry is a manifold with a differ ential structure, and usually some additional structure as well. Thus, one is given a topological space M and a family of homeomorphisms, called coordinate sys tems, between open subsets of the space and open subsets of a real vector space V. It is supposed that where two domains overlap, the images are related by a diffeomorphism, called a coordinate transformation, between open subsets of V. M has associated with it a tangent bundle, which is a vector bundle with fiber V and group the general linear group GL(V). The additional structures that occur include Riemannian metrics, connections, complex structures, foliations, and many more. Frequently there is associated to the structure a reduction of the group of the tangent bundle to some subgroup G of GL(V). It is particularly pleasant if one can choose the coordinate systems so that the Jacobian matrices of the coordinate transformations belong to G. A reduction to G is called a G-structure, which is called integrable (or flat) if the condition on the Jacobians is satisfied. The strength of the integrability hypothesis is well-illustrated by the case of the orthogonal group On. An On-structure is given by the choice of a Riemannian metric, and therefore exists on every smooth manifold.
