Generic singularities of envelopes of families of chords and bifurcations of affine equidistants defined by a pair of a curve and a surface in R3 are classified. The chords join pairs of points of the curve and the surface such that the tangent line to the curve is parallel to the tangent plane to the surface. The classification contains singularities of stable Lagrange and Legendre projections, boundary singularities and some less known classes appearing at the points of the surface and the curve themselves. 相似文献

We introduce the concept of topological finite-determinacy for
germs of analytic functions within a fixed ideal
I, which provides a notion of topological finite-determinacy
of functions with non-isolated singularities. We prove the following statement
which generalizes classical results of Thom and Varchenko: let
A be the complement in the ideal I of the space
of germs whose topological type remains unchanged under a
deformation within the ideal that only modifies sufficiently
large order terms of the Taylor expansion. Then A has infinite
codimension in I in a suitable sense. We also prove the
existence of generic topological types of families of germs of
I parametrized by an irreducible analytic set. 相似文献

We introduce the notion of the lightcone Gauss–Kronecker curvature for a spacelike submanifold of codimension two in Minkowski
space, which is a generalization of the ordinary notion of Gauss curvature of hypersurfaces in Euclidean space. In the local
sense, this curvature describes the contact of such submanifolds with lightlike hyperplanes. We study geometric properties
of such curvatures and show a Gauss–Bonnet type theorem. As examples we have hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space, spacelike
hypersurfaces in the lightcone and spacelike hypersurfaces in de Sitter space. 相似文献

We introduce a new approach to the study of affine equidistants and centre symmetry sets via a family of maps obtained by reflexion in the midpoints of chords of a submanifold of affine space. We apply this to surfaces in R3, previously studied by Giblin and Zakalyukin, and then apply the same ideas to surfaces in R4, elucidating some of the connexions between their geometry and the family of reflexion maps. We also point out some connexions with symplectic topology. 相似文献

A tangential family is a 1-parameter system of regular curves emanating tangentially from another regular curve. We classify simple tangential family germs up to A-equivalence. We describe perestroikas of envelopes of simple tangential family germs of small codimension under small deformations of the germ among tangential families. 相似文献

The purpose of this paper is to give a necessary and sufficient condition on the existence of associated splittings (defined in this paper) and to consider some applications to associated quasi-connections on fibred manifolds and vector bundles, using the idea and extending Theorem 1 from [2]. In Section 1, a general condition on the existence of associated splittings is given. In Section 2, the basic constructions concerning q.c.s. used in the next Section are briefly described following [7]; they extend the q.c.s. of Wang [8, 1, 2]. In Section 3 there are proved two theorems on associated q.c.s. using essentially the main theorem from Section 1. 相似文献

The algebra of differential invariants of a suitably generic surface S⊂R3, under either the usual Euclidean or equi-affine group actions, is shown to be generated, through invariant differentiation, by a single differential invariant. For Euclidean surfaces, the generating invariant is the mean curvature, and, as a consequence, the Gauss curvature can be expressed as an explicit rational function of the invariant derivatives, with respect to the Frenet frame, of the mean curvature. For equi-affine surfaces, the generating invariant is the third order Pick invariant. The proofs are based on the new, equivariant approach to the method of moving frames. 相似文献

We define and study pseudoholomorphic vector bundle structures, particular cases of which are tangent and normal bundle almost complex structures. As an application we deduce normal forms of almost complex structures along a pseudoholomorphic submanifold.In dimension four we relate these normal forms to the problem of pseudoholomorphic foliation of a neighborhood of a curve and the question of non-deformation and persistence of pseudoholomorphic tori. 相似文献

Abstract Geometric methods for systems of partial differential equations and multiple integral problems in the calculus of variations lead naturally to differentiable manifolds that resemble fiber bundles but do not possess a structure group; in terms of local coordinates, π:B→Mn|(xi, qα)→(xi), dim(B) = N + n, dim(Mn) = n. The standard notions of horizontal distributions, horizontal and vertical subspaces of T(B), T(B) = V(B) ⊕ H(B), horizontal lifts of curves in Mn, and horizontal and vertical dual subspaces with Λ1(B) = V*(B) ⊕ H*(B) are shown to be well defined in B. The absence of a structure group is compensated for by an analysis based on the homogeneous ideals V and H that are generated by the canonical bases of V*(B) and H*(B), respectively. The differential system constructed from the generators of the horizontal ideal is shown to lead to a unique system of connection 1-forms and torsion 2-forms under the requirements that they have vacuous intersections with the horizontal ideal. The horizontal ideal is shown to be completely integrable if and only if the torsion 2-forms vanish throughout B, in which case the curvature 2-forms are congruent to zero mod H, and the curvature 2-forms are shown to have a vacuous intersection with H if and only if the horizontal distribution is affine. The paper concludes with a study of the mapping properties of the connection, torsion and curvature. These are significantly more general than those of a fiber bundle since the absence of a structure group allows mappings of the form 'xi = φi(x,q), 'qα = φα (x,q). 相似文献

We study the graded Poisson structures defined on Ω(M), the graded algebra of differential forms on a smooth manifoldM, such that the exterior derivative is a Poisson derivation. We show that they are the odd Poisson structures previously studied
by Koszul, that arise from Poisson structures onM. Analogously, we characterize all the graded symplectic forms on ΩM) for which the exterior derivative is a Hamiltomian graded vector field. Finally, we determine the topological obstructions
to the possibility of obtaining all odd symplectic forms with this property as the image by the pullback of an automorphism
of Ω(M) of a graded symplectic form of degree 1 with respect to which the exterior derivative is a Hamiltonian graded vector field. 相似文献

A Yang–Mills theory in a purely symplectic framework is developed. The corresponding Euler–Lagrange equations are derived
and first integrals are given. We relate the results to the work of Bourgeois and Cahen on preferred symplectic connections. 相似文献

We show how the double vector bundle structure of the manifold of double velocities, with its submanifolds of holonomic and semiholonomic double velocities, is mirrored by a structure of holonomic and semiholonomic subgroups in the principal prolongation of the first jet group. We use the actions of these groups to construct holonomic and semiholonomic submanifolds in the manifold of double contact elements, and show that these give rise to affine bundles where a semiholonomic element has well-defined holonomic and curvature components. 相似文献

This paper begins a series devoted to developing a general and practical theory of moving frames for infinite-dimensional
Lie pseudo-groups. In this first, preparatory part, we present a new, direct approach to the construction of invariant Maurer–Cartan
forms and the Cartan structure equations for a pseudo-group. Our approach is completely explicit and avoids reliance on the
theory of exterior differential systems and prolongation.
The second paper [60] will apply these constructions in order to develop the moving frame algorithm for the action of the
pseudo-group on submanifolds. The third paper [61] will apply Gr?bner basis methods to prove a fundamental theorem on the
freeness of pseudo-group actions on jet bundles, and a constructive version of the finiteness theorem of Tresse and Kumpera
for generating systems of differential invariants and also their syzygies.
Applications of the moving frame method include practical algorithms for constructing complete systems of differential invariants
and invariant differential forms, classifying their syzygies and recurrence relations, analyzing invariant variational principles,
and solving equivalence and symmetry problems arising in geometry and physics. 相似文献

This article constitutes an appendix to the book by P. A. Griffiths, Exterior differential systems and the calculus of variations. Birkhäuser, 1983. It especially focusses on the distinction between holonomic and nonholonomic mechanical and variational problems, and indicates how rich and interesting the phenomena are in the nonholonomic case.Appendix to the Russian translation of [G]. The letter G followed by a number will refer to the corresponding reference in [G]; the quoted references, as well as [G] itself, can be found at the end of the list of references below. 相似文献
