Isometric Embeddings Between the Near Polygons {\mathbb{H}_n} and {\mathbb{G}_n}

Let ${n \in \mathbb{N}\backslash \{0, 1, 2\}}$ . We prove that there exists up to equivalence one and up to isomorphism (n+1)(2n+1) isometric embeddings of the near 2n-gon ${\mathbb{H}_n}$ into the near 2n-gon ${\mathbb{G}_n}$ .     

The intersection map of subgroups and the classes {\mathcal {PST}_c}, {\mathcal {PT}_c} and {\mathcal {T}_c}

A group G is called a ${\mathcal {T}_{c}}$ -group if every cyclic subnormal subgroup of G is normal in G. Similarly, classes ${\mathcal {PT}_{c}}$ and ${\mathcal {PST}_{c}}$ are defined, by requiring cyclic subnormal subgroups to be permutable or S-permutable, respectively. A subgroup H of a group G is called normal (permutable or S-permutable) cyclic sensitive if whenever X is a normal (permutable or S-permutable) cyclic subgroup of H there is a normal (permutable or S-permutable) cyclic subgroup Y of G such that ${X=Y \cap H}$ . We analyze the behavior of a collection of cyclic normal, permutable and S-permutable subgroups under the intersection map into a fixed subgroup of a group. In particular, we tie the concept of normal, permutable and S-permutable cyclic sensitivity with that of ${\mathcal {T}_c}$ , ${\mathcal {PT}_c}$ and ${\mathcal {PST}_c}$ groups. In the process we provide another way of looking at Dedekind, Iwasawa and nilpotent groups.     

Isometric embeddings of \mathbb{Z}_{p^k} in the Hamming space \mathbb{F}_{p}^{N} and \mathbb{Z}_{p^k}-linear codes

Isometric embeddings of $\mathbb{Z}_{p^n+1}$ into the Hamming space ( $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{p^n},w$ ) have played a fundamental role in recent constructions of non-linear codes. The codes thus obtained are very good codes, but their rate is limited by the rate of the first-order generalized Reed–Muller code—hence, when n is not very small, these embeddings lead to the construction of low-rate codes. A natural question is whether there are embeddings with higher rates than the known ones. In this paper, we provide a partial answer to this question by establishing a lower bound on the order of a symmetry of ( $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{N},w$ ).     

The upper bound of the $${{\rm L}_{\mu}^2}$$ spectrum

Let M be an n-dimensional complete non-compact Riemannian manifold, dμ = e ^h (x)dV(x) be the weighted measure and \triangle_m{\triangle_{\mu}} be the weighted Laplacian. In this article, we prove that when the m-dimensional Bakry–émery curvature is bounded from below by Ric _m ≥ −(m − 1)K, K ≥ 0, then the bottom of the L_m²{{\rm L}_{\mu}^2} spectrum λ₁(M) is bounded by

The Idempotents of the TL n -Module {\otimes^{n}\mathbb{C}2} in Terms of Elements of {{\rm U}_{q} \mathfrak{sl}_2}

The vector space \({\otimes^{n}\mathbb{C}^2}\) upon which the XXZ Hamiltonian with n spins acts bears the structure of a module over both the Temperley–Lieb algebra \({{\rm TL}_{n}(\beta = q + q^{-1})}\) and the quantum algebra \({{\rm U}_{q} \mathfrak{sl}_2}\) . The decomposition of \({\otimes^{n}\mathbb{C}^2}\) as a \({{\rm U}_{q} \mathfrak{sl}_2}\) -module was first described by Rosso (Commun Math Phys 117:581–593, 1988), Lusztig (Cont Math 82:58–77, 1989) and Pasquier and Saleur (Nucl Phys B 330:523–556, 1990) and that as a TL _n -module by Martin (Int J Mod Phys A 7:645–673, 1992) (see also Read and Saleur Nucl Phys B 777(3):316–351, 2007; Gainutdinov and Vasseur Nucl Phys B 868:223–270, 2013). For q generic, i.e. not a root of unity, the TL _n -module \({\otimes^{n}\mathbb{C}^2}\) is known to be a sum of irreducible modules. We construct the projectors (idempotents of the algebra of endomorphisms of \({\otimes^{n}\mathbb{C}^2}\) ) onto each of these irreducible modules as linear combinations of elements of \({{\rm U}_{q} \mathfrak{sl}_2}\) . When q = q _c is a root of unity, the TL _n -module \({\otimes^{n}\mathbb{C}^2}\) (with n large enough) can be written as a direct sum of indecomposable modules that are not all irreducible. We also give the idempotents projecting onto these indecomposable modules. Their expression now involves some new generators, whose action on \({\otimes^{n}\mathbb{C}^2}\) is that of the divided powers \({(S^{\pm})^{(r)} = \lim_{q \rightarrow q_{c}} (S^{\pm})^r/[r]!}\) .     

$$ H^{p}_{w} - L^{p}_{w} $$ Boundedness of Marcinkiewicz Integral

The Marcinkiewicz integral is essentially a Littlewood-Paley g-function, which plays a very important role in harmonic analysis. In this paper we give weaker smoothness conditions assumed on Ω to imply the boundedness of the Marcinkiewicz integral operator μ_Ω, where w belongs to the Muckenhoupt weight class.     

On the $${ L}^{ p}$$Lp norm of the torsion function

Bounds are obtained for the \(L^p\) norm of the torsion function \(v_{\varOmega }\), i.e. the solution of \(-\varDelta v=1,\, v\in H_0^1(\varOmega ),\) in terms of the Lebesgue measure of \(\varOmega \) and the principal eigenvalue \(\lambda _1(\varOmega )\) of the Dirichlet Laplacian acting in \(L^2(\varOmega )\). We show that these bounds are sharp for \(1\le p\le 2\).

     

Biharmonic submanifolds of {\mathbb{C}P^n}

We give some general results on proper-biharmonic submanifolds of a complex space form and, in particular, of the complex projective space. These results are mainly concerned with submanifolds with constant mean curvature or parallel mean curvature vector field. We find the relation between the bitension field of the inclusion of a submanifold [`(M)]{\bar{M}} in \mathbbCPⁿ{\mathbb{C}P^n} and the bitension field of the inclusion of the corresponding Hopf-tube in \mathbbS²ⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb{S}^{2n+1}}. Using this relation we produce new families of proper-biharmonic submanifolds of \mathbbCPⁿ{\mathbb{C}P^n}. We study the geometry of biharmonic curves of \mathbbCPⁿ{\mathbb{C}P^n} and we characterize the proper-biharmonic curves in terms of their curvatures and complex torsions.     

A decomposition of the universal embedding space for the near polygon {{\mathbb H}_n}

Let ${{\mathbb H}_n, n \geq 1}$ , be the near 2n-gon defined on the 1-factors of the complete graph on 2n?+?2 vertices, and let e denote the absolutely universal embedding of ${{\mathbb H}_n}$ into PG(W), where W is a ${\frac{1}{n+2} \left(\begin{array}{c}2n+2 \\ n+1\end{array}\right)}$ -dimensional vector space over the field ${{\mathbb F}_2}$ with two elements. For every point z of ${{\mathbb H}_n}$ and every ${i \in {\mathbb N}}$ , let Δ _i (z) denote the set of points of ${{\mathbb H}_n}$ at distance i from z. We show that for every pair {x, y} of mutually opposite points of ${{\mathbb H}_n, W}$ can be written as a direct sum ${W_0 \oplus W_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus W_n}$ such that the following four properties hold for every ${i \in \{0,\ldots,n \}}$ : (1) ${\langle e(\Delta_i(x) \cap \Delta_{n-i}(y)) \rangle = {\rm PG}(W_i)}$ ; (2) ${\left\langle e \left( \bigcup_{j \leq i} \Delta_j(x) \right) \right\rangle = {\rm PG}(W_0 \oplus W_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus W_i)}$ ; (3) ${\left\langle e \left( \bigcup_{j \leq i} \Delta_j(y) \right) \right\rangle = {\rm PG}(W_{n-i}\oplus W_{n-i+1} \oplus \cdots \oplus W_n)}$ ; (4) ${\dim(W_i) = |\Delta_i(x) \cap \Delta_{n-i}(y)| = \left(\begin{array}{c}n \\ i\end{array}\right)^2 - \left(\begin{array}{c}n \\ i-1\end{array}\right) \cdot \left(\begin{array}{c}n \\ i+1\end{array}\right)}$ .     

On the Hausdorff-limitability of {zn}

In this paper we are concerned with the Hausdorff-limitability of the sequence {zⁿ}. Our aim is to solve a problem, which was posed by Agnew [1]. The H_x-transform of {zⁿ}: $$\sigma _n (z) = \int\limits_0^1 {\{ 1 + t(z - 1)\} ^n d\chi (t)}$$ (where: χ∈bv(0,1), χ(0)=χ(0+)=0, χ(1)=1) converges to the value zero for \(z \in r_r = \{ \varsigma :|\varsigma - (1 - \tfrac{1}{r})| = \tfrac{1}{r},\varsigma = |1\} (o< r \leqslant 1)\) if and only if χ satisfies the conditions: χ(t)=1 for t∈[r, 1] and χ is continuous at t=r.     

Period functions for $ {\mathcal{C}^0} $- and $ {\mathcal{C}^1} $-flows

Let F:M ×\mathbbR ? M {\mathbf{F}}:M \times \mathbb{R} \to M be a continuous flow on a manifold M, let V ⊂ M be an open subset, and let x:V ? \mathbbR \xi :V \to \mathbb{R} be a continuous function. We say that ξ is a period function if F(x, ξ(x)) = x for all x ∈ V. Recently, for any open connected subset V ⊂ M; the author has described the structure of the set P(V) of all period functions on V. Assume that F is topologically conjugate to some C¹ {\mathcal{C}^1} -flow. It is shown in this paper that, in this case, the period functions of F satisfy some additional conditions that, generally speaking, are not satisfied for general continuous flows.     

On the {H^1}-stability of the {L_2}-projection onto finite element spaces

We study the stability in the $H^1$ -seminorm of the $L_2$ -projection onto finite element spaces in the case of nonuniform but shape regular meshes in two and three dimensions and prove, in particular, stability for conforming triangular elements up to order twelve and conforming tetrahedral elements up to order seven.     

On Projective Modules in Category \mathcal{O}_{int} of Quantum \mathfrak{sl}_{2}

The restriction of a Verma module of ${\bf U}(\mathfrak{sl}_3)$ to ${\bf U}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ is isomorphic to a Verma module tensoring with all the finite dimensional simple modules of ${\bf U}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ . The canonical basis of the Verma module is compatible with such a decomposition. An explicit decomposition of the tensor product of the Verma module of highest weight 0 with a finite dimensional simple module into indecomposable projective modules in the category $\mathcal O_{\rm{int}}$ of quantum $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ is given.     

About the stability of the tangent bundle of {\mathbb{P}^n} restricted to a surface

Let X be a smooth projective surface over ${\mathbb{C}}$ and let L be a line bundle on X generated by its global sections. Let ${\phi _L:X\longrightarrow{{\mathbb{P}}^r}}$ be the morphism associated to L; we investigate the μ?stability of ${\phi _L^*T_{{\mathbb{P}}^r}}$ with respect to L when X is either a regular surface with p _g  = 0, a K3 surface or an abelian surface. In particular, we show that ${\phi_L^*T_{{\mathbb{P}}^r}}$ is μ? stable when X is K3 and L is ample and when X is abelian and L ² ≥ 14.     

Sharp higher-order Sobolev inequalities in the hyperbolic space {\mathbb{H}^n}

In this paper, we obtain the sharp k-th order Sobolev inequalities in the hyperbolic space ${\mathbb{H}^n}$ for all k = 1, 2, 3, . . . . This gives an answer to an open question raised by Aubin in [Aubin, Princeton University Press, Princeton (1982), pp. 176–177] for ${W^{k,2}(\mathbb{H}^n)}$ with k > 1. In addition, we prove that the associated Sobolev constants are optimal.     

On the continuity of \text{ SLE }_{\kappa } in \kappa

We prove that for almost every Brownian motion sample, the corresponding SLE \(_\kappa \) curves parameterized by capacity exist and change continuously in the supremum norm when \(\kappa \) varies in the interval \([0,\kappa _0)\) , where \(\kappa _0=8(2-\sqrt{3})\approx 2.1\) . We estimate the \(\kappa \) -dependent modulus of continuity of the curves and also give an estimate on the modulus of continuity for the supremum norm change with \(\kappa \) .     

Decomposing triples of \mathbb{Z}_{p^n } and \mathbb{Z}_{3p^n } into cyclic designs

In this paper, we give some decompositions of triples of Zp^n or Z3p^n into cyclic triple systems. New constructions of difference families are given. Some infinite classes of simple cyclic triple systems are obtained from these decompositions.
