Laguerre geometry of hypersurfaces in $$\mathbb{R}^{n}$$

Laguerre geometry of surfaces in is given in the book of Blaschke [Vorlesungen über Differentialgeometrie, Springer, Berlin Heidelberg New York (1929)], and has been studied by Musso and Nicolodi [Trans. Am. Math. soc. 348, 4321–4337 (1996); Abh. Math. Sem. Univ. Hamburg 69, 123–138 (1999); Int. J. Math. 11(7), 911–924 (2000)], Palmer [Remarks on a variation problem in Laguerre geometry. Rendiconti di Mathematica, Serie VII, Roma, vol. 19, pp. 281–293 (1999)] and other authors. In this paper we study Laguerre differential geometry of hypersurfaces in . For any umbilical free hypersurface with non-zero principal curvatures we define a Laguerre invariant metric g on M and a Laguerre invariant self-adjoint operator : TM → TM, and show that is a complete Laguerre invariant system for hypersurfaces in with n≥ 4. We calculate the Euler–Lagrange equation for the Laguerre volume functional of Laguerre metric by using Laguerre invariants. Using the Euclidean space , the semi-Euclidean space and the degenerate space we define three Laguerre space forms , and and define the Laguerre embeddings and , analogously to what happens in the Moebius geometry where we have Moebius space forms S ⁿ , and (spaces of constant curvature) and conformal embeddings and [cf. Liu et al. in Tohoku Math. J. 53, 553–569 (2001) and Wang in Manuscr. Math. 96, 517–534 (1998)]. Using these Laguerre embeddings we can unify the Laguerre geometry of hypersurfaces in , and . As an example we show that minimal surfaces in or are Laguerre minimal in .C. Wang Partially supported by RFDP and Chuang-Xin-Qun-Ti of NSFC.     

Parabolic twists for the linear algebras <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>−1</Subscript>

New solutions of twist equations for the universal enveloping algebras U (A_n−1) are found. These solutions can be represented as products of full chains of extended Jordanian twists Abelian factors (“rotations”) , and sets of quasi-Jordanian twists . The latter are generalizations of Jordanian twists (with carrier b²) for special deformed extensions of the Hopf algebra U (b²). The carrier subalgebra for the composition is a nonminimal parabolic subalgebra in A _n−1 such that . The parabolic twisting elements are obtained in an explicit form. Details of the construction are illustrated by considering the examples n = 4 and n = 11. Bibliography: 21 titles. Published in Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 347, 2007, pp. 187–213.     

Infinite-Time Quenching in a Fast Diffusion Equation with Strong Absorption

This work is concerned with the fast diffusion equation , where 0 < m < 1 and κ < 1. A global positive solution is said to quench regularly in infinite time if for some bounded sequence and some , and if for all compact . It is shown that such regular quenching in infinite time occurs for a large class of initial data if κ > m , whereas it is impossible in one space dimension when κ < −m and the solution is radially symmetric and nondecreasing for x > 0.      

Degenerating curves and surfaces: first results

Let be a smooth family of surfaces whose general fibre is a smooth surface of ℙ³ and whose special fibre has two smooth components, intersecting transversally along a smooth curve R. We consider the Universal Severi-Enriques variety on . The general fibre of is the variety of curves on in the linear system with k cusps and δ nodes as singularities. Our problem is to find all irreducible components of the special fibre of . In this paper, we consider only the cases (k, δ) = (0, 1) and (k, δ) = (1, 0). In particular, we determine all singular curves on the special fibre of which, counted with the right multiplicity, are a limit of 1-cuspidal curves on the general fibre of .      

Nonmaximal decidable structures

Given any infinite structure with a decidable first-order theory, we give a sufficient condition in terms of the Gaifman graph of that ensures that can be expanded with some nondefinable predicate in such a way that the first-order theory of the expansion is still decidable.

Several L ^∞-estimates are obtained for in terms of and , where are determined by m. If p = 2, then the estimates are given with explicit constants. However, if p ≠ 2, it is difficult to derive explicit constants except in two simple cases. Applicability to PDE’s is illustrated.     

A note on simultaneous Diophantine approximation on planar curves

Let denote the set of simultaneously - approximable points in and denote the set of multiplicatively ψ-approximable points in . Let be a manifold in . The aim is to develop a metric theory for the sets and analogous to the classical theory in which is simply . In this note, we mainly restrict our attention to the case that is a planar curve . A complete Hausdorff dimension theory is established for the sets and . A divergent Khintchine type result is obtained for ; i.e. if a certain sum diverges then the one-dimensional Lebesgue measure on of is full. Furthermore, in the case that is a rational quadric the convergent Khintchine type result is obtained for both types of approximation. Our results for naturally generalize the dimension and Lebesgue measure statements of Beresnevich et al. (Mem AMS, 179 (846), 1–91 (2006)). Moreover, within the multiplicative framework, our results for constitute the first of their type. The research of Victor V. Beresnevich was supported by an EPSRC Grant R90727/01. Sanju L.

Gabor frames by sampling and periodization

By sampling the window of a Gabor frame for belonging to Feichtinger’s algebra, , one obtains a Gabor frame for . In this article we present a survey of results by R. Orr and A.J.E.M. Janssen and extend their ideas to cover interrelations among Gabor frames for the four spaces , , and . Some new results about general dual windows with respect to sampling and periodization are presented as well. This theory is used to show a new result of the Kaiblinger type to construct an approximation to the canonical dual window of a Gabor frame for .      

Surfaces with many solitary points

It is classically known that a real cubic surface in cannot have more than one solitary point (or -singularity, locally given by x ² + y ² + z ² = 0) whereas it can have up to four nodes (or -singularity, locally given by x ² + y ² − z ² = 0). We show that on any surface of degree d ≥ 3 in the maximum possible number of solitary points is strictly smaller than the maximum possible number of nodes. Conversely, we adapt a construction of Chmutov to obtain surfaces with many solitary points by using a refined version of Brusotti’s Theorem. Combining lower and upper bounds, we deduce: , where denotes the maximum possible number of solitary points on a real surface of degree d in . Finally, we adapt this construction to get real algebraic surfaces in with many singular points of type for all k ≥ 1.      

Faster subsequence recognition in compressed strings

Computation on compressed strings is one of the key approaches to processing massive data sets. We consider local subsequence recognition problems on strings compressed by straight-line programs (SLP), which is closely related to Lempel–Ziv compression. For an SLP-compressed text of length , and an uncompressed pattern of length n, Cégielski et al. gave an algorithm for local subsequence recognition running in time . We improve the running time to . Our algorithm can also be used to compute the longest common subsequence between a compressed text and an uncompressed pattern in time ; the same problem with a compressed pattern is known to be NP-hard.

Restriction De La Cohomologie D’une Variété De Shimura à Ses Sous-variétés

Let G be a connected semisimple group over . Given a maximal compact subgroup K ⊂ G() such that X = G()/K is a Hermitian symmetric domain, and a convenient arithmetic subgroup Γ ⊂ G(), one constructs a (connected) Shimura variety S = S(Γ) = Γ\X. If H ⊂ G is a connected semisimple subgroup such that H() / K is maximal compact, then Y = H()/K is a Hermitian symmetric subdomain of X. For each g ∈ G() one can construct a connected Shimura variety S(H, g) = (H() ∩ g ⁻¹Γg)\Y and a natural holomorphic map j _g : S(H, g) → S induced by the map H() → G(), h → gh. Let us assume that G is anisotropic, which implies that S and S(H, g) are compact. Then, for each positive integer k, the map j _g induces a restriction map

A Marstrand theorem for measures with polytope density

Given and any centrally symmetric convex polytope , define we prove that if a Radon measure μ has the property then s is an integer. For the case Θ is the Euclidean ball, this result was first proved by Marstrand in 1955 for Hausdorff measure in the plane (Marstrand in Proc Lond Math Soc 3(4):257–302, 1954) and later for general Radon measures in (Marstrand in Trans Am Math Soc 205:369–392, 1964).
