Some remarks on universal graphs

LetΓ be a class of countable graphs, and let ℱ(Γ) denote the class of all countable graphs that do not contain any subgraph isomorphic to a member ofΓ. Furthermore, letTΓ andHΓ denote the class of all subdivisions of graphs inΓ and the class of all graphs contracting to a member ofΓ, respectively. As the main result of this paper it is decided which of the classes ℱ(TK ⁿ ) and ℱ(HK ⁿ ),n≦ℵ₀, contain a universal element. In fact, for ℱ(TK ⁴)=ℱ(HK ⁴) a strongly universal graph is constructed, whereas for 5≦n≦ℵ₀ the classes ℱ(TK ⁿ ) and ℱ(HK ⁿ ) have no universal elements.

Which singular K3 surfaces cover an Enriques surface

We determine the necessary and sufficient conditions on the entries of the intersection matrix of the transcendental lattice of a singular K3 surface for the surface to doubly cover an Enriques surface.

     

Some remarks on Brauer groups of K3 surfaces

We discuss the geometry of the genus one fibrations associated to an elliptic fibration on a K3 surface. We show that the two-torsion subgroup of the Brauer group of a general elliptic fibration is naturally isomorphic to the two torsion of the Jacobian of a curve associated to the fibration. We remark that this is related to Recillas’ trigonal construction. Finally we discuss the two-torsion in the Brauer group of a general K3 surface with a polarization of degree two.     

Some remarks on an ODE-solver of Kirchgraber

Summary Kirchgraber derived in 1988 an integration procedure (called the LIPS-code) for long-term prediction of the solutions of equations which are perturbations of systems having only periodic solutions. His basic idea is to use the Poincaré map to define a new system which can be integrated with large step-size; the method is specially successful when the period is close to the unperturbed one. Obviously the size of the perturbation modifies the period and therefore affects the precision of the algorithm. In this paper we propose a double modification of Kirchgraber's code: to use a first-order approximation of the perturbed period instead of the unperturbed one, and a scheme specially designed for integration of orbits instead of the Runge-Kutta method. We show that this new code permits a spectacular improvement in accuracy and computation time.     

Some remarks on the variation of curve length and surface area

Consider the curve , where is absolutely continuous on . Then has finite length, and if is the -neighborhood of in the uniform norm, we compare the length of the shortest path in with the length of . Our main result establishes necessary and sufficient conditions on such that the difference of these quantities is of order as . We also include a result for surfaces.

     

Some remarks on the ring

Some properties like factoriality, seminormality and being a Krull domain, … are studied on power series rings , and over a commutative ring A. If \(\mathbb{X}\) is an uncountable set, there is an other sub-ring of that stands strictly between and , we denote it by . In this paper, we study properties mentioned before on the ring .

Some remarks on the numerical computation of integrals on an unbounded interval

An account of the error and the convergence theory is given for Gauss–Laguerre and Gauss–Radau–Laguerre quadrature formulae. We develop also truncated models of the original Gauss rules to compute integrals extended over the positive real axis. Numerical examples confirming the theoretical results are given comparing these rules among themselves and with different quadrature formulae proposed by other authors (Evans, Int. J. Comput. Math. 82:721–730, 2005; Gautschi, BIT 31:438–446, 1991).      

Some remarks on multilinear exponential sums with an application

A sum-product equation is considered in prime fields. We bound a multilinear exponential sum with an additional requirement for some sets.     

Some remarks on tautological sheaves on Hilbert schemes of points on a surface

We study tautological sheaves on the Hilbert scheme of points on a smooth quasi-projective algebraic surface by means of the Bridgeland–King–Reid transform. We obtain Brion–Danila’s Formulas for the derived direct image of tautological sheaves or their double tensor product for the Hilbert–Chow morphism; as an application we compute the cohomology of the Hilbert scheme with values in tautological sheaves or in their double tensor product, thus generalizing results previously obtained for tautological bundles.      

Some remarks on the Clebsch's system

The almost Hamilton-Poisson realization, the stability problem, the existence of periodic solutions and the numerical integration via the Lie-Trotter integrator for the Clebsch system are discussed and some of their properties are pointed out.
