Affine congruence by dissection of discs - appropriate groups and optimal dissections

Let be a group of affine transformations of the Euclidean plane . Two topological discs D, are called congruent by dissection with respect to if D can be dissected into a finite number of subdiscs that can be rearranged by maps from to a dissection of E. Our main result says in particular that admits congruence by dissection of any circular disc C with any square S if and only if contains a contractive map and all orbits , , are dense in . In this case any two discs D and E are congruent by dissection with respect to and every disc D is congruent by dissection with n copies of D for every n ≥ 2. Moreover, we give estimates on minimal numbers of pieces that are needed to realize congruences by dissection. Dedicated to Irmtraud Stephani on the occasion of her 70th birthday

The Automorphism Group of Plane Algebraic Curves with Singer Automorphisms

The main result in Cossidente and Siciliano (J. Number Theory, Vol. 99 (2003) pp. 373–382) states that if a Singer subgroup of PGL(3,q) is an automorphism group of a projective, geometric irreducible, non-singular plane algebraic curve then either or . In the former case is projectively equivalent to the curve with equation X^q+1Y+Y^q+1+X=0 studied by Pellikaan. Furthermore, the curve has a very nice property from Finite Geometry point of view: apart from the three distinguished points fixed by the Singer subgroup, the set of its -rational points can be partitioned into finite projective planes . In this paper, the full automorphism group of such curves is determined. It turns out that is the normalizer of a Singer group in .     

Metric Geometry in Homogeneous Spaces of the Unitary Group of a C*-Algebra. Part II. Geodesics Joining Fixed Endpoints

This article focuses on the study of the metric geometry of homogeneous spaces (the unitary group of a C*-algebra modulo the unitary group of a C*-subalgebra ) where the invariant Finsler metric in is induced by the quotient norm of Under the assumption that is of compact type, i.e. when the unitary group is relatively compact in the strong operator topology, this work presents local and global versions of Hopf-Rinow-like theorems: given points there exists a minimal uniparametric group curve joining ρ₀ and ρ₁.     

Polar Graphs and Corresponding Involution Sets, Loops and Steiner Triple Systems

A 1-factorization (or parallelism) of the complete graph with loops is called polar if each 1-factor (parallel class) contains exactly one loop and for any three distinct vertices x₁, x₂, x₃, if {x₁} and {x₂, x₃} belong to a 1-factor then the same holds for any permutation of the set {1, 2, 3}. To a polar graph there corresponds a polar involution set , an idempotent totally symmetric quasigroup (P, *), a commutative, weak inverse property loop (P, + ) of exponent 3 and a Steiner triple system . We have: satisfies the trapezium axiom is self-distributive ⇔ (P, + ) is a Moufang loop is an affine triple system; and: satisfies the quadrangle axiom is a group is an affine space.

Notes on very ample vector bundles on 3-folds

Let be a very ample vector bundle of rank two on a smooth complex projective threefold X. An inequality about the third Segre class of is provided when is nef but not big, and when a suitable positive multiple of defines a morphism X → B with connected fibers onto a smooth projective curve B, where K_X is the canonical bundle of X. As an application, the case where the genus of B is positive and has a global section whose zero locus is a smooth hyperelliptic curve of genus ≧ 2 is investigated, and our previous result is improved for threefolds.

Types and coalgebraic structure

We relate weak limit preservation properties of coalgebraic type functors F to structure theoretic properties of the class of all F-coalgebras. In particular, we give coalgebraic characterizations for the condition that F weakly preserves pullbacks, kernel pairs or preimages. We also describe regular monos and epis. In case that |F(1)| ≠ 1 we show that F preserves preimages iff for every class of F-coalgebras. The case |F(1)| = 1 is left as an open problem.Dedicated to the memory of Ivan RivalReceived August 29, 2003; accepted in final form July 13, 2004.This revised version was published online in August 2005 with a corrected cover date.

Line bundles over a moduli space of logarithmic connections on a Riemann surface

We consider logarithmic connections, on rank n and degree d vector bundles over a compact Riemann surface X, singular over a fixed point x₀ ∈ X with residue in the center of the integers n and d are assumed to be mutually coprime. A necessary and sufficient condition is given for a vector bundle to admit such a logarithmic connection. We also compute the Picard group of the moduli space of all such logarithmic connections. Let denote the moduli space of all such logarithmic connections, with the underlying vector bundle being of fixed determinant L, and inducing a fixed logarithmic connection on the determinant line L. Let be the Zariski open dense subset parametrizing all connections such that the underlying vector bundle is stable. The space of all global sections of certain line bundles on are computed. In particular, there are no nonconstant algebraic functions on Therefore, there are no nonconstant algebraic functions on although is biholomorphic to a representation space which admits nonconstant algebraic functions. The moduli space admits a natural compactification by a smooth divisor. We investigate numerically effectiveness of this divisor at infinity. It turns out that the divisor is not numerically effective in general. Received: March 2004 Revision: May 2004 Accepted: May 2004     

Locally finite varieties of Heyting algebras

We show that for a variety of Heyting algebras the following conditions are equivalent: (1) is locally finite; (2) the -coproduct of any two finite -algebras is finite; (3) either coincides with the variety of Boolean algebras or finite -copowers of the three element chain are finite. We also show that a variety of Heyting algebras is generated by its finite members if, and only if, is generated by a locally finite -algebra. Finally, to the two existing criteria for varieties of Heyting algebras to be finitely generated we add the following one: is finitely generated if, and only if, is residually finite.

On the enumeration of positive cells in generalized cluster complexes and Catalan hyperplane arrangements

Let Φ be an irreducible crystallographic root system with Weyl group W and coroot lattice , spanning a Euclidean space V. Let m be a positive integer and be the arrangement of hyperplanes in V of the form for and . It is known that the number of bounded dominant regions of is equal to the number of facets of the positive part of the generalized cluster complex associated to the pair by S. Fomin and N. Reading. We define a statistic on the set of bounded dominant regions of and conjecture that the corresponding refinement of coincides with the $h$-vector of . We compute these refined numbers for the classical root systems as well as for all root systems when m = 1 and verify the conjecture when Φ has type A, B or C and when m = 1. We give several combinatorial interpretations to these numbers in terms of chains of order ideals in the root poset of Φ, orbits of the action of W on the quotient and coroot lattice points inside a certain simplex, analogous to the ones given by the first author in the case of the set of all dominant regions of . We also provide a dual interpretation in terms of order filters in the root poset of Φ in the special case m = 1. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification Primary—20F55; Secondary—05E99, 20H15

Uniform Mixed Hypergraphs: The Possible Numbers of Colors

For a mixed hypergraph , where and are set systems over the vertex set X, a coloring is a partition of X into ‘color classes’ such that every meets some class in more than one vertex, and every has a nonempty intersection with at least two classes. The feasible set of , denoted , is the set of integers k such that admits a coloring with precisely k nonempty color classes. It was proved by Jiang et al. [Graphs and Combinatorics 18 (2002), 309–318] that a set S of natural numbers is the feasible set of some mixed hypergraph if and only if either or S is an ‘interval’ for some integer k ≥ 1. In this note we consider r-uniform mixed hypergraphs, i.e. those with |C| = |D| = r for all and all , r ≥ 3. We prove that S is the feasible set of some r-uniform mixed hypergraph with at least one edge if and only if either for some natural number k ≥ r − 1, or S is of the form where S′′ is any (possibly empty) subset of and S′ is either the empty set or {r − 1} or an ‘interval’ {k, k + 1, ..., r − 1} for some k, 2 ≤ k ≤ r − 2. We also prove that all these feasible sets can be obtained under the restriction , i.e. within the class of ‘bi-hypergraphs’.
