Minkowski geometric algebra is concerned with the complex sets populated by the sums and products of all pairs of complex
numbers selected from given complex‐set operands. Whereas Minkowski sums (under vector addition in Rn have been extensively studied, from both the theoretical and computational perspective, Minkowski products in R2 (induced by the multiplication of complex numbers) have remained relatively unexplored. The complex logarithm reveals a close
relation between Minkowski sums and products, thereby allowing algorithms for the latter to be derived through natural adaptations
of those for the former. A novel concept, the logarithmic Gauss maps of plane curves, plays a key role in this process, furnishing
geometrical insights that parallel those associated with the “ordinary” Gauss map. As a natural generalization of Minkowski
sums and products, the computation of “implicitly‐defined” complex sets (populated by general functions of values drawn from
given sets) is also considered. By interpreting them as one‐parameter families of curves, whose envelopes contain the set
boundaries, algorithms for evaluating such sets are sketched.

In this paper we study a class of closed convex sets introduced recently by Ernst et al. (J Funct Anal 223:179–203, 2005) and called by these authors slice-continuous sets. This class, which plays an important role in the strong separation of
convex sets, coincides in ℝ
n
with the well known class of continuous sets defined by Gale and Klee in the 1960s. In this article we achieve, in the setting
of reflexive Banach spaces, two new characterizations of slice-continuous sets, similar to those provided for continuous sets
in ℝ
n
by Gale and Klee. Thus, we prove that a slice-continuous set is precisely a closed and convex set which does not possess
neither boundary rays, nor flat asymptotes of any dimension. Moreover, a slice-continuous set may also be characterized as
being a closed and convex set of non-void interior for which the support function is continuous except at the origin.

Algorithms are developed, based on topological principles, to evaluate the boundary and “internal structure” of the Minkowski sum of two planar curves. A graph isotopic to the envelope curve is constructed by computing its characteristic points. The edges of this graph are in one-to-one correspondence with a set of monotone envelope segments. A simple formula allows a degree to be assigned to each face defined by the graph, indicating the number of times its points are covered by the Minkowski sum. The boundary can then be identified with the set of edges that separate faces of zero and non-zero degree, and the boundary segments corresponding to these edges can be approximated to any desired geometrical accuracy. For applications that require only the Minkowski sum boundary, the algorithm minimizes geometrical computations on the “internal” envelope edges, that do not contribute to the final boundary. In other applications, this internal structure is of interest, and the algorithm provides comprehensive information on the covering degree for different regions within the Minkowski sum. Extensions of the algorithm to the computation of Minkowski sums in R3, and other forms of geometrical convolution, are briefly discussed. 相似文献

The paper deals with the properties of the exterior algebra ℝ(Λn) related to the Euclidean structure on ℝ(Λn) induced by the scalar product in ℝ(Λn). A geometric interpretation of inner multiplication for simple p-vectors is given. An invariant form of the Cartan criterion
for the simplicity of a p-vector is given. The Plücker model realizing the real Grassmann manifold as a submanifold of the
Euclidean space ℝ(Λn), and an isometry of this submanifold onto the classical Grassmann manifold with SO(n)-invariant metric are described. A
canonical decomposition of bivectors is given. Bibliography: 12 titles.

Minkowski Geometric Algebra of Complex Sets 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A geometric algebra of point sets in the complex plane is proposed, based on two fundamental operations: Minkowski sums and products. Although the (vector) Minkowski sum is widely known, the Minkowski product of two-dimensional sets (induced by the multiplication rule for complex numbers) has not previously attracted much attention. Many interesting applications, interpretations, and connections arise from the geometric algebra based on these operations. Minkowski products with lines and circles are intimately related to problems of wavefront reflection or refraction in geometrical optics. The Minkowski algebra is also the natural extension, to complex numbers, of interval-arithmetic methods for monitoring propagation of errors or uncertainties in real-number computations. The Minkowski sums and products offer basic 'shape operators' for applications such as computer-aided design and mathematical morphology, and may also prove useful in other contexts where complex variables play a fundamental role – Fourier analysis, conformal mapping, stability of control systems, etc. 相似文献

It has been recently conjectured that, in the context of the Heisenberg group ℍn endowed with its Carnot–Carathéodory metric and Haar measure, the isoperimetric sets (i.e., minimizers of the ℍ-perimeter among sets of constant Haar measure) could coincide with the solutions to a “restricted” isoperimetric problem within the
class of sets having finite perimeter, smooth boundary, and cylindrical symmetry. In this paper, we derive new properties
of these restricted isoperimetric sets, which we call Heisenberg bubbles. In particular, we show that their boundary has constant mean ℍ-curvature and, quite surprisingly, that it is foliated by
the family of minimal geodesics connecting two special points. In view of a possible strategy for proving that Heisenberg
bubbles are actually isoperimetric among the whole class of measurable subsets of ℍn, we turn our attention to the relationship between volume, perimeter, and ε-enlargements. In particular, we prove a Brunn–Minkowski
inequality with topological exponent as well as the fact that the ℍ-perimeter of a bounded, open set F⊂ℍn of class C2 can be computed via a generalized Minkowski content, defined by means of any bounded set whose horizontal projection is the 2n-dimensional unit disc. Some consequences of these properties are discussed.

The Ruelle Sullivan map for an ℝn-action on a compact metric space with invariant probability measure is a graded homomorphism between the integer Cech cohomology
of the space and the exterior algebra of the dual of ℝn. We investigate flows on tori to illuminate that it detects geometrical structure of the system. For actions arising from
Delone sets of finite local complexity, the existence of canonical transversals and a formulation in terms of pattern equivariant
functions lead to the result that the Ruelle Sullivan map is even a ring homomorphism provided the measure is ergodic. 相似文献

of polynomial or regular maps, and we estimate in both cases the dimension of their generic fibers.
