A Mordell-Lang plus Bogomolov type result for curves in $${\mathbb{G}_{m}^{2}}$$

We prove a sharper so-called Mordell-Lang plus Bogomolov type result for curves lying in the two-dimensional linear torus. We mainly follow the approach of Rémond in (Comp Math 134:337–366, 2002), using Vojta and Mumford type inequalities. In the special case we consider, we improve Rémond’s main result using a better Bogomolov property and an elementary arithmetic Bézout theorem.

Let G be the complex general linear group and its Lie algebra equipped with a factorizable Lie bialgebra structure; let U_ħ() be the corresponding quantum group. We construct explicit U_ħ()-equivariant quantization of Poisson orbit bundles O _λ → O _μ in *.     

A categorification of finite-dimensional irreducible representations of quantum \mathfraksl2{\mathfrak{sl}_2} and their tensor products

The purpose of this paper is to study categorifications of tensor products of finite-dimensional modules for the quantum group for . The main categorification is obtained using certain Harish-Chandra bimodules for the complex Lie algebra . For the special case of simple modules we naturally deduce a categorification via modules over the cohomology ring of certain flag varieties. Further geometric categorifications and the relation to Steinberg varieties are discussed.We also give a categorical version of the quantised Schur–Weyl duality and an interpretation of the (dual) canonical bases and the (dual) standard bases in terms of projective, tilting, standard and simple Harish-Chandra bimodules.

On the existence of spines for ${\mathbb{Q}}${\mathbb{Q}}-rank 1 groups

Let X = Γ \G/ K be an arithmetic quotient of a symmetric space of non-compact type. In the case that G has -rank 1, we construct Γ-equivariant deformation retractions of D = G/K onto a set D₀. We prove that D₀ is a spine, having dimension equal to the virtual cohomological dimension of Γ. In fact, there is a (k − 1)-parameter family of such deformation retractions, where k is the number of Γ -conjugacy classes of rational parabolic subgroups of G. The construction of the spine also gives a way to construct an exact fundamental domain for Γ.     

Anomalous dimensions of Wilson operators in the N = 4\mathcal{N} = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory

We present results for the universal anomalous dimension γ_un(j) of Wilson twist-2 operators in the supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the first three orders of the perturbation theory. We obtain these expressions by extracting the most complicated terms from the corresponding anomalous dimensions in QCD. The result obtained agrees with the hypothesis of the integrability of the supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 150, No. 2, pp. 249–262, February, 2007.     

Tameness of Pseudovariety Joins Involving \sf R{\sf R}

In this paper, we establish several decidability results for pseudovariety joins of the form \sf Vú\sf W{\sf V}\vee{\sf W} , where \sf V{\sf V} is a subpseudovariety of \sf J{\sf J} or the pseudovariety \sf R{\sf R} . Here, \sf J{\sf J} (resp. \sf R{\sf R} ) denotes the pseudovariety of all J{\cal J} -trivial (resp. ?{\cal R} -trivial) semigroups. In particular, we show that the pseudovariety \sf Vú\sf W{\sf V}\vee{\sf W} is (completely) κ-tame when \sf V{\sf V} is a subpseudovariety of \sf J{\sf J} with decidable κ-word problem and \sf W{\sf W} is (completely) κ-tame. Moreover, if \sf W{\sf W} is a κ-tame pseudovariety which satisfies the pseudoidentity x₁ ⋯ x_ry^ω+1zt^ω = x₁ ⋯ x_ryzt^ω, then we prove that \sf Rú\sf W{\sf R}\vee{\sf W} is also κ-tame. In particular the joins \sf Rú\sf Ab{\sf R}\vee{\sf Ab} , \sf Rú\sf G{\sf R}\vee{\sf G} , \sf Rú\sf OCR{\sf R}\vee{\sf OCR} , and \sf Rú\sf CR{\sf R}\vee{\sf CR} are decidable.     

Eigenfunctions of the Laplace operators for a building of type[(A)\tilde]2\tilde A_2

A note on plurisubharmonic defining functions in \mathbbCn{\mathbb{C}^{n}}

Let , n ≥ 3, be a smoothly bounded domain. Suppose that Ω admits a smooth defining function which is plurisubharmonic on the boundary of Ω. Then a Diederich–Forn?ss exponent can be chosen arbitrarily close to 1, and the closure of Ω admits a Stein neighborhood basis. Research of J. E. Forn?ss was partially supported by an NSF grant.

Orthogonal complex structures on domains in \mathbb R4{\mathbb {R}^4}

An orthogonal complex structure on a domain in is a complex structure which is integrable and is compatible with the Euclidean metric. This gives rise to a first order system of partial differential equations which is conformally invariant. We prove two Liouville-type uniqueness theorems for solutions of this system, and use these to give an alternative proof of the classification of compact locally conformally flat Hermitian surfaces first proved by Pontecorvo. We also give a classification of non-degenerate quadrics in under the action of the conformal group SO _°(1, 5). Using this classification, we show that generic quadrics give rise to orthogonal complex structures defined on the complement of unknotted solid tori which are smoothly embedded in .

Lipschitzian Properties of Integral Functionals on Lebesgue Spaces Lp, 1 \leqslant p < ￥\bf{L_p, 1 \leqslant {p} < \infty}

We give complete characterizations of integral functionals which are Lipschitzian on a Lebesgue space L _p with p ≠ ∞. When the measure is atomless, we characterize the integral functionals which are locally Lipschitzian on such Lebesgue spaces. In every cases, the Lipchitzian properties of the integral functional can be described by growth conditions on the subdifferentials of the integrand which are equivalent to Lipschitzian properties of the integrand.      

Constant angle surfaces in \Bbb S2×\Bbb R {\Bbb S}^2\times {\Bbb R}

In this article we study surfaces in \Bbb S²×\Bbb R {\Bbb S}^2\times {\Bbb R} for which the unit normal makes a constant angle with the \Bbb R {\Bbb R} -direction. We give a complete classification for surfaces satisfying this simple geometric condition.     

Homological Invariants for pro-p Groups and Some Finitely Presented pro- C{\cal C} Groups

Let G be a finitely presented pro- C{\cal C} group with discrete relations. We prove that the kernel of an epimorphism of G to [^(\Bbb Z)]_C\hat{\Bbb Z}_{\cal C} is topologically finitely generated if G does not contain a free pro- C{\cal C} group of rank 2. In the case of pro-p groups the result is due to J. Wilson and E. Zelmanov and does not require that the relations are discrete ([15], [17]).For a pro-p group G of type FP_m we define a homological invariant C{\cal C} groups, pro-p groups, homological type FP_m, finite presentabilityBoth authors are partially supported by CNPq, Brazil.     

On the Posets ( \user1Wk2 , < ){\left( {{\user1{\mathcal{W}}}^{k}_{2} , < } \right)} and their Connections with Some Homogeneous Inequalities of Degree 2

A class of ranked posets {(D _h ^k , ≪)} has been recently defined in order to analyse, from a combinatorial viewpoint, particular systems of real homogeneous inequalities between monomials. In the present paper we focus on the posets D ₂ ^k , which are related to systems of the form {x _a x _b * _abcd x _c x _d : 0 ≤ a, b, c, d ≤ k, * _abcd ∈ {<, >}, 0 < x ₀ < x ₁ < ...< x _k}. As a consequence of the general theory, the logical dependency among inequalities is adequately captured by the so-defined posets . These structures, whose elements are all the D ₂ ^k 's incomparable pairs, are thoroughly surveyed in the following pages. In particular, their order ideals – crucially significant in connection with logical consequence – are characterised in a rather simple way. In the second part of the paper, a class of antichains is shown to enjoy some arithmetical properties which make it an efficient tool for detecting incompatible systems, as well as for posing some compatibility questions in a purely combinatorial fashion.     

The minimal genus problem in rational surfaces CP2 # n[`(CP2 )]CP^2 \# n\overline {CP^2 }

There are three key ingredients in the study of the minimal genus problem for rational surfaces : the generalized adjunction formula, the action of the orthogonal group of the Lorentz space and the geometric construction. In this paper, we prove the uniqueness of the standard form (see Definition 1.1 and Theorem 1.1) of a 2-dimensional homology class under the action of the subgroup of the Lorentz orthogonal group that is realized by the diffeomorphisms of . Using the geometric construction, we determine the minimal genera of some classes (see Theorem 1.2).
