Extraction of subsystems “Majorized” by the rademacher system

In this paper it is proved that from any uniformly bounded orthonormal system {f _n} _n=1 ^∞ of random variables defined on the probability space (Ω, ε, P), one can extract a subsystem {fni} _i ^{Emphasis>=1/∞} majorized in distribution by the Rademacher system on [0, 1]. This means that {

Théorie de Kasparov équivariante et groupo?des I

Let be a locally compact topological groupoid, A and B two C*-algebras endowed with a continuous action of . We define an operator K-theory group K K (A,B). We describe two basic properties of this theory: the existence of a Kasparov product and functoriality with respect to groupoid cocycles.     

Reducibility and nonreducibility between equivalence relations

We show that, for , the relation of -equivalence between infinite sequences of real numbers is Borel reducible to the relation of -equivalence (i.e., the Borel cardinality of the quotient is no larger than that of ), but not vice versa. The Borel reduction is constructed using variants of the triadic Koch snowflake curve; the nonreducibility in the other direction is proved by taking a putative Borel reduction, refining it to a reduction map that is not only continuous but `modular,' and using this nicer map to derive a contradiction.

     

Contact Transformations and Local Reducibility of ODE to the Form y‴=0

Orbits of the ODE y=0 in corresponding jet bundles are investigated. Explicit relations for the right-hand side of an arbitrary 3-order ODE necessary and sufficient for the existence of a contact transformation reducing this equation locally to the form y=0 are obtained.     

On equivalence of derived categories

Let A be an Abelian category and B be a thick subcategory of A. Let D ^b(B) denote the derived category of cohomologically bounded chain complexes of objects in A and D _B ^b (A) denote the derived category of cohomologically bounded chain complexes of objects in A with cohomology in B. We give two if and only if conditions for equivalence of D(B) and D _B ^b (A), and we give an example where D ^b (B) and D _B ^b (A) are not equivalent.     

Generalized Poincaré Classes and Cubic Equivalences

Let Y be a smooth projective algebraic surface over ?, and T(Y) the kernel of the Albanese map CH₀(Y)_deg0 → Alb(Y). It was first proven by D. Mumford that if the genus Pg(Y) > 0, then T(Y) is 'infinite dimensional'. One would like to have a better idea about the structure of T(Y). For example, if Y is dominated by a product of curves E₁ × E₂, such as an abelian or a Kummer surface, then one can easily construct an abelian variety B and a surjective 'regular' homomorphism B^?z2 → T(Y). A similar story holds for the case where Y is the Fano surface of lines on a smooth cubic hypersurface in P⁴. This implies a sort of boundedness result for T(Y). It is natural to ask if this is the case for any smooth projective algebraic surface Y ? Partial results have been attained in this direction by the author [Illinois. J. Math. 35 (2), 1991]. In this paper, we show that the answer to this question is in general no. Furthermore, we generalize this question to the case of the Chow group of k—cycles on any projective algebraic manifold X, and arrive at, from a conjectural standpoint, necessary and sufficient cohomological conditions on X for which the question can be answered affirmatively.     

Unitarily Inequivalent Representations in Algebraic Quantum Theory

It has been maintained that the physical content of a model of a system is completely contained in the C∗-algebra of quasi-local observables that is associated with the system. The reason given for this is that the unitarily inequivalent representations of are physically equivalent. But, this view is dubious for at least two reasons. First, it is not clear why the physical content does not extend to the elements of the von Neumann algebras that are generated by representations of . It is shown here that although the unitarily inequivalent representations of are physically equivalent, the extended representations are not. Second, this view detracts from special global features of physical systems such as temperature and chemical potential by effectively relegating them to the status of fixed parameters. It is desirable to characterize such observables theoretically as elements of the algebra that is associated with a system rather than as parameters, and thereby give a uniform treatment to all observables. This can be accomplished by going to larger algebras. One such algebra is the universal enveloping von Neumann algebra, which is generated by the universal representation of ; another is the direct integral of factor representations that are associated with the set of values of the global features. Placing interpretive significance on the von Neumann algebras mentioned earlier sheds light on the significance of unitarily inequivalent representations of , and it serves to show the limitations of the notion of physical equivalence.     

Classical Versus Quantum Equivalence Between Sine-Gordon,Liouville and Other Solitons

In this work we present a mapping between the classical solutions of the sine-Gordon, Liouville, ⁴ and other kinks in 1+1 dimensions. This is done by using an invariant quantity which relates the models. It is easily shown that this procedure is equivalent to that used to get the so called deformed solitons, as proposed recently by Bazeia et al. [Phys. Rev. D. 66 (2002) 101701(R)]. The classical equivalence is explored in order to relate the solutions of the corresponding models and, as a consequence, try to get new information about them. We discuss also the difficulties and consequences which appear when one tries to extend the deformation in order to take into account the quantum version of the models.     

Equivalence Principle Measurements

Over the centuries there have been many experimental tests of the universality of free-fall. To date, these measurements have established the equivalence between inertial and gravitational mass to high precision, justifying its use as a foundation stone of general relativity by Einstein. There is a surprising richness in the variety of techniques and choice of test bodies which have been used so far, and a brief review is presented. However, future space experiments promise much better precision in this measurement and STEP is presented in some detail as one of a number of such missions. Using pairs of concentric free-falling proof-masses, STEP will be able to test the Equivalence Principle (EP) to a sensitivity at least five orders of magnitude better than currently achievable on ground. The EP is a founding principle of general relativity and STEP is the most sensitive experiment of this type planned so far, aiming at 1 part in 10¹⁸.
