Book Some Excluded minor Theorems for Binary Matroids

Download or read book Some Excluded minor Theorems for Binary Matroids written by Xiangqian Zhou and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this dissertation is to generalize some important excluded-minor theorems for graphs to binary matroids. Chapter 3 contains joint work with Hongxun Qin, in which we show that an internally 4-connected binary matroid with no M(K5)-, M*(K5)-, M(K3, 3)-, or M*(K3, 3)-minor is either planar graphic, or isomorphic to F-- or F*--. As a corollary, we prove an extremal result for the class of binary matroids without these minors. In Chapter 4, it is shown that, except for 6 'small' known matroids, every internally 4-connected non-regular binary matroid has either a [widetilde]K5- or a [widetilde]K5*-minor. Using this result, we obtain a computer-free proof of Dharmatilake's conjecture about the excluded minors for binary matroids with branch-width at most 3. D.W. Hall proved that K5 is the only simple 3-connected graph with a K5-minor that has no K3, 3-minor. In Chapter 5, we determine all the internally 4-connected binary matroids with an M(K5)-minor that have no M(K3, 3)-minor. In chapter 6, it is shown that there are only finitely many non-regular internally 4-connected matroids in the class of binary matroids with no M(K'3, 3)- or M*(K'3, 3)-minor, where K'3, 3 is the graph obtained from K3, 3 by adding an edge between a pair of non-adjacent vertices. In Chapter 7, we summarize the results and discuss about open problems. We are particularly interested in the class of binary matroids with no M(K5)- or M*(K5)-minor. Unfortunately, we tried without success to find all the internally 4-connected members of this class. However, it is shown that the matroid J1 is the smallest splitter for the above class.

Book On Binary and Regular Matroids Without Small Minors

Download or read book On Binary and Regular Matroids Without Small Minors written by Kayla Davis Harville and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of this dissertation consist of excluded-minor results for Binary Matroids and excluded-minor results for Regular Matroids. Structural theorems on the relationship between minors and k- sums of matroids are developed here in order to provide some of these characterizations. Chapter 2 of the dissertation contains excluded-minor results for Binary Matroids. The first main result of this dissertation is a characterization of the internally 4-connected binary matroids with no minor that is isomorphic to the cycle matroid of the prism+e graph. This characterization generalizes results of Mayhew and Royle [18] for binary matroids and results of Dirac [8] and Lovasz [15] for graphs. The results of this chapter are then extended from the class of internally 4-connected matroids to the class of 3-connected matroids. Chapter 3 of the dissertation contains the second main result, a decomposition theorem for regular matroids without certain minors. This decomposition theorem is used to obtain excluded-minor results for Regular Matroids. Wagner, Lovasz, Oxley, Ding, Liu, and others have characterized many classes of graphs that are H- free for graphs H with at most twelve edges (see [7]). We extend several of these excluded-minor characterizations to regular matroids in Chapter 3. We also provide characterizations of regular matroids excluding several graphic matroids such as the octahedron, cube, and the Mobius Ladder on eight vertices. Both theoretical and computer-aided proofs of the results of Chapters 2 and 3 are provided in this dissertation.

Book The Hermitian Two Matrix Model with an Even Quartic Potential

Download or read book The Hermitian Two Matrix Model with an Even Quartic Potential written by Maurice Duits and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors consider the two matrix model with an even quartic potential $W(y)=y^4/4+\alpha y^2/2$ and an even polynomial potential $V(x)$. The main result of the paper is the formulation of a vector equilibrium problem for the limiting mean density for the eigenvalues of one of the matrices $M_1$. The vector equilibrium problem is defined for three measures, with external fields on the first and third measures and an upper constraint on the second measure. The proof is based on a steepest descent analysis of a $4\times4$ matrix valued Riemann-Hilbert problem that characterizes the correlation kernel for the eigenvalues of $M_1$. The authors' results generalize earlier results for the case $\alpha=0$, where the external field on the third measure was not present.

Book Erdos Space and Homeomorphism Groups of Manifolds

Download or read book Erdos Space and Homeomorphism Groups of Manifolds written by Jan Jakobus Dijkstra and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2010 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let M be either a topological manifold, a Hilbert cube manifold, or a Menger manifold and let D be an arbitrary countable dense subset of M. Consider the topological group H(M,D) which consists of all autohomeomorphisms of M that map D onto itself equipped with the compact-open topology. We present a complete solution to the topological classification problem for H(M,D) as follows. If M is a one-dimensional topological manifold, then we proved in an earlier paper that H(M,D) is homeomorphic to Qω, the countable power of the space of rational numbers. In all other cases we find in this paper that H(M,D) is homeomorphic to the famed Erdős space E E, which consists of the vectors in Hilbert space l2 with rational coordinates. We obtain the second result by developing topological characterizations of Erdős space.

Book The Goodwillie Tower and the EHP Sequence

Download or read book The Goodwillie Tower and the EHP Sequence written by Mark Behrens and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author studies the interaction between the EHP sequence and the Goodwillie tower of the identity evaluated at spheres at the prime $2$. Both give rise to spectral sequences (the EHP spectral sequence and the Goodwillie spectral sequence, respectively) which compute the unstable homotopy groups of spheres. He relates the Goodwillie filtration to the $P$ map, and the Goodwillie differentials to the $H$ map. Furthermore, he studies an iterated Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence approach to the homotopy of the layers of the Goodwillie tower of the identity on spheres. He shows that differentials in these spectral sequences give rise to differentials in the EHP spectral sequence. He uses his theory to recompute the $2$-primary unstable stems through the Toda range (up to the $19$-stem). He also studies the homological behavior of the interaction between the EHP sequence and the Goodwillie tower of the identity. This homological analysis involves the introduction of Dyer-Lashof-like operations associated to M. Ching's operad structure on the derivatives of the identity. These operations act on the mod $2$ stable homology of the Goodwillie layers of any functor from spaces to spaces.

Book Modular Branching Rules for Projective Representations of Symmetric Groups and Lowering Operators for the Supergroup  Q n

Download or read book Modular Branching Rules for Projective Representations of Symmetric Groups and Lowering Operators for the Supergroup Q n written by Aleksandr Sergeevich Kleshchëv and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two approaches to projective representation theory of symmetric and alternating groups, which are powerful enough to work for modular representations. One is based on Sergeev duality, which connects projective representation theory of the symmetric group and representation theory of the algebraic supergroup $Q(n)$ via appropriate Schur (super)algebras and Schur functors. The second approach follows the work of Grojnowski for classical affine and cyclotomic Hecke algebras and connects projective representation theory of symmetric groups in characteristic $p$ to the crystal graph of the basic module of the twisted affine Kac-Moody algebra of type $A_{p-1}^{(2)}$. The goal of this work is to connect the two approaches mentioned above and to obtain new branching results for projective representations of symmetric groups.

Book The Schrodinger Model for the Minimal Representation of the Indefinite Orthogonal Group  O p q

Download or read book The Schrodinger Model for the Minimal Representation of the Indefinite Orthogonal Group O p q written by Toshiyuki Kobayashi and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors introduce a generalization of the Fourier transform, denoted by $\mathcal{F}_C$, on the isotropic cone $C$ associated to an indefinite quadratic form of signature $(n_1,n_2)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ ($n=n_1+n_2$: even). This transform is in some sense the unique and natural unitary operator on $L^2(C)$, as is the case with the Euclidean Fourier transform $\mathcal{F}_{\mathbb{R}^n}$ on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$. Inspired by recent developments of algebraic representation theory of reductive groups, the authors shed new light on classical analysis on the one hand, and give the global formulas for the $L^2$-model of the minimal representation of the simple Lie group $G=O(n_1+1,n_2+1)$ on the other hand.

Book Infinite Dimensional Representations of 2 Groups

Download or read book Infinite Dimensional Representations of 2 Groups written by John C. Baez and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as groups can have representations on vector spaces, 2-groups have representations on 2-vector spaces, but Lie 2-groups typically have few representations on the finite-dimensional 2-vector spaces introduced by Kapranov and Voevodsky. Therefore, Crane, Sheppeard, and Yetter introduced certain infinite-dimensional 2-vector spaces, called measurable categories, to study infinite-dimensional representations of certain Lie 2-groups, and German and North American mathematicians continue that work here. After introductory matters, they cover representations of 2-groups, and measurable categories, representations on measurable categories. There is no index.

Book Dimer Models and Calabi Yau Algebras

Download or read book Dimer Models and Calabi Yau Algebras written by Nathan Broomhead and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012-01-23 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this article the author uses techniques from algebraic geometry and homological algebra, together with ideas from string theory to construct a class of 3-dimensional Calabi-Yau algebras. The Calabi-Yau property appears throughout geometry and string theory and is increasingly being studied in algebra. He further shows that the algebras constructed are examples of non-commutative crepant resolutions (NCCRs), in the sense of Van den Bergh, of Gorenstein affine toric threefolds. Dimer models, first studied in theoretical physics, give a way of writing down a class of non-commutative algebras, as the path algebra of a quiver with relations obtained from a `superpotential'. Some examples are Calabi-Yau and some are not. The author considers two types of `consistency' conditions on dimer models, and shows that a `geometrically consistent' dimer model is `algebraically consistent'. He proves that the algebras obtained from algebraically consistent dimer models are 3-dimensional Calabi-Yau algebras. This is the key step which allows him to prove that these algebras are NCCRs of the Gorenstein affine toric threefolds associated to the dimer models.

Book Differential Forms on Wasserstein Space and Infinite Dimensional Hamiltonian Systems

Download or read book Differential Forms on Wasserstein Space and Infinite Dimensional Hamiltonian Systems written by Wilfrid Gangbo and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2010 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let $\mathcal{M}$ denote the space of probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^D$ endowed with the Wasserstein metric. A differential calculus for a certain class of absolutely continuous curves in $\mathcal{M}$ was introduced by Ambrosio, Gigli, and Savare. In this paper the authors develop a calculus for the corresponding class of differential forms on $\mathcal{M}$. In particular they prove an analogue of Green's theorem for 1-forms and show that the corresponding first cohomology group, in the sense of de Rham, vanishes. For $D=2d$ the authors then define a symplectic distribution on $\mathcal{M}$ in terms of this calculus, thus obtaining a rigorous framework for the notion of Hamiltonian systems as introduced by Ambrosio and Gangbo. Throughout the paper the authors emphasize the geometric viewpoint and the role played by certain diffeomorphism groups of $\mathbb{R}^D$.

Book On the Algebraic Foundations of Bounded Cohomology

Download or read book On the Algebraic Foundations of Bounded Cohomology written by Theo Bühler and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a widespread opinion among experts that (continuous) bounded cohomology cannot be interpreted as a derived functor and that triangulated methods break down. The author proves that this is wrong. He uses the formalism of exact categories and their derived categories in order to construct a classical derived functor on the category of Banach $G$-modules with values in Waelbroeck's abelian category. This gives us an axiomatic characterization of this theory for free, and it is a simple matter to reconstruct the classical semi-normed cohomology spaces out of Waelbroeck's category. The author proves that the derived categories of right bounded and of left bounded complexes of Banach $G$-modules are equivalent to the derived category of two abelian categories (one for each boundedness condition), a consequence of the theory of abstract truncation and hearts of $t$-structures. Moreover, he proves that the derived categories of Banach $G$-modules can be constructed as the homotopy categories of model structures on the categories of chain complexes of Banach $G$-modules, thus proving that the theory fits into yet another standard framework of homological and homotopical algebra.

Book Iwasawa Theory  Projective Modules  and Modular Representations

Download or read book Iwasawa Theory Projective Modules and Modular Representations written by Ralph Greenberg and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2010 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper shows that properties of projective modules over a group ring $\mathbf{Z}_p[\Delta]$, where $\Delta$ is a finite Galois group, can be used to study the behavior of certain invariants which occur naturally in Iwasawa theory for an elliptic curve $E$. Modular representation theory for the group $\Delta$ plays a crucial role in this study. It is necessary to make a certain assumption about the vanishing of a $\mu$-invariant. The author then studies $\lambda$-invariants $\lambda_E(\sigma)$, where $\sigma$ varies over the absolutely irreducible representations of $\Delta$. He shows that there are non-trivial relationships between these invariants under certain hypotheses.

Book On  L  Packets for Inner Forms of  SL n

Download or read book On L Packets for Inner Forms of SL n written by Kaoru Hiraga and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of $L$-indistinguishability for inner forms of $SL_2$ has been established in the well-known paper of Labesse and Langlands (L-indistinguishability forSL$(2)$. Canad. J. Math. 31 (1979), no. 4, 726-785). In this memoir, the authors study $L$-indistinguishability for inner forms of $SL_n$ for general $n$. Following the idea of Vogan in (The local Langlands conjecture. Representation theory of groups and algebras, 305-379, Contemp. Math. 145 (1993)), they modify the $S$-group and show that such an $S$-group fits well in the theory of endoscopy for inner forms of $SL_n$.
