Residual {\bar\partial}-cohomology and the complex Radon transform on subvarieties of {\mathbb C P^n}

We show that the complex Radon transform realizes an isomorphism between the quotient-space of residual ${\bar\partial}$ -cohomologies of a locally complete intersection algebraic subvariety in a linearly concave domain of ${{{\mathbb C}}P^n}$ and the space of holomorphic solutions of the associated homogeneous system of differential equations with constant coefficients in the dual domain in ${({{\mathbb C}}P^n)^*}$ .     

On real local isometric immersions of {\mathbb{C}Q^2_c} into {\mathbb{C} P^{3}}

We investigate real local isometric immersions of Kähler manifolds ${\mathbb{C}Q^2_c}$ of constant holomorphic curvature 4c into complex projective 3-space. Our main result is that the standard embedding of ${\mathbb{C}P^2}$ into ${\mathbb{C}P^3}$ has strong rigidity under the class of local isometric transformations. We also prove that there are no local isometric immersions of ${\mathbb{C}Q^2_c}$ into ${\mathbb{C}P^3}$ when they have different holomorphic curvature. An important method used is a study of the relationship between the complex structure of any locally isometric immersed ${\mathbb{C}Q^2_c}$ and the complex structure of the ambient space ${\mathbb{C}P^3}$ .     

On Quadratic Differentials and Twisted Normal Maps of Surfaces in {\mathbb{S}^{2} \times\mathbb{R}} and {\mathbb{H}^{2} \times\mathbb{R}}

Given a Lie group G with a bi-invariant metric and a compact Lie subgroup K, Bittencourt and Ripoll used the homogeneous structure of quotient spaces to define a Gauss map ${\mathcal{N}:M^{n}\rightarrow{\mathbb{S}}}$ on any hypersupersurface ${M^{n}\looparrowright G/K}$ , where ${{\mathbb{S}}}$ is the unit sphere of the Lie algebra of G. It is proved in Bittencourt and Ripoll (Pacific J Math 224:45–64, 2006) that M ⁿ having constant mean curvature (CMC) is equivalent to ${\mathcal{N}}$ being harmonic, a generalization of a Ruh–Vilms theorem for submanifolds in the Euclidean space. In particular, when n = 2, the induced quadratic differential ${\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}:=(\mathcal{N}^{\ast}g)^{2,0}}$ is holomorphic on CMC surfaces of G/K. In this paper, we take ${G/K={\mathbb{S}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ and compare ${\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ with the Abresch–Rosenberg differential ${\mathcal{Q}}$ , also holomorphic for CMC surfaces. It is proved that ${\mathcal{Q}=\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ , after showing that ${\mathcal{N}}$ is the twisted normal given by (1.5) herein. Then we define the twisted normal for surfaces in ${{\mathbb{H}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ and prove that ${\mathcal{Q}=\mathcal{Q}_{\mathcal{N}}}$ as well. Within the unified model for the two product spaces, we compute the tension field of ${\mathcal{N}}$ and extend to surfaces in ${{\mathbb{H}}^{2}\times{\mathbb{R}}}$ the equivalence between the CMC property and the harmonicity of ${\mathcal{N}.}$      

On {\mathbb{F}_q} -Rational Structure of Nilpotent Orbits in the Witt Algebra

Let ${\mathfrak{g}=W_1}$ be the p-dimensional Witt algebra over an algebraically closed field ${k=\overline{\mathbb{F}}_q}$ , where p > 3 is a prime and q is a power of p. Let G be the automorphism group of ${\mathfrak{g}}$ . The Frobenius morphism F _G (resp. ${F_\mathfrak{g}}$ ) can be defined naturally on G (resp. ${\mathfrak{g}}$ ). In this paper, we determine the ${F_\mathfrak{g}}$ -stable G-orbits in ${\mathfrak{g}}$ . Furthermore, the number of ${\mathbb{F}_q}$ -rational points in each ${F_\mathfrak{g}}$ -stable orbit is precisely given. Consequently, we obtain the number of ${\mathbb{F}_q}$ -rational points in the nilpotent variety.     

Geodesics on the Moduli Space of Oriented Circles in \mathbb{S}^{3}

Let ${\mathbb{Q}^3}$ be the moduli space of oriented circles in the three dimensional unit sphere ${\mathbb{S}^3}$ . Given a natural complex structure such space becomes a three dimensional complex manifold, with a M?bius invariant Hermitian metric h of type (2, 1). Up to M?bius transformations, all geodesics with respect to the Lorentz metric g = Re(h) on ${\mathbb{Q}^3}$ are determined to form a one-parameter family of circles on a helicoid in a space form ${\mathbb{R}^3, \mathbb{H}^3}$ or ${\mathbb{S}^{3}}$ , resp. We show also that any two oriented circles in ${\mathbb{S}^3}$ are connected by countably infinitely many geodesics in ${\mathbb{Q}^3}$ .     

Signature and Spectral Flow of J-Unitary {\mathbb{S}^1} -Fredholm Operators

Bijective operators conserving the indefinite scalar product on a Krein space ${(\mathcal{K}, J)}$ are called J-unitary. Such an operator T is defined to be ${\mathbb{S}^1}$ -Fredholm if T?z 1 is Fredholm for all z on the unit circle ${\mathbb{S}^1}$ , and essentially ${\mathbb{S}^1}$ -gapped if there is only discrete spectrum on ${\mathbb{S}^1}$ . For paths in the ${\mathbb{S}^1}$ -Fredholm operators an intersection index similar to the Conley–Zehnder index is introduced. The strict subclass of essentially ${\mathbb{S}^1}$ -gapped operators has a countable number of components which can be distinguished by a homotopy invariant given by the signature of J restricted to the eigenspace of all eigenvalues on ${\mathbb{S}^1}$ . These concepts are illustrated by several examples.     

Separable forms of {{\mathbb{G}}_m} -ACTIONS ON {{\mathbb{A}}^3}

Let k be a field of characteristic zero. We consider k-forms of $ {\mathbb G} $ _m -actions on $ {\mathbb A} $ ³ and show that they are linearizable. In particular, $ {\mathbb G} $ _m -actions on $ {\mathbb A} $ ³ are linearizable, and k-forms of $ {\mathbb A} $ ³ that admit an effective action of an infinite reductive group are trivial.     

On Some Holomorphic Cohomological Equations

Let Σ be a non compact Riemann surface and ${\gamma :\Sigma \longrightarrow \Sigma}$ an automorphism acting freely and properly such that the quotient M = Σ/γ is a non compact Riemann surface. Using the fact that Σ and M are Stein manifolds, we prove that, for any holomorphic function ${g : \Sigma \longrightarrow {\mathbb C}}$ and any ${\lambda \in {\mathbb C}}$ , there exists a holomorphic function ${f:\Sigma \longrightarrow {\mathbb C}}$ which is a solution of the holomorphic cohomological equation ${f \circ \gamma - \lambda f = g}$ .     

Composed products and factors of cyclotomic polynomials over finite fields

Let q = p ^s be a power of a prime number p and let ${\mathbb {F}_{\rm q}}$ be a finite field with q elements. This paper aims to demonstrate the utility and relation of composed products to other areas such as the factorization of cyclotomic polynomials, construction of irreducible polynomials, and linear recurrence sequences over ${\mathbb {F}_{\rm q}}$ . In particular we obtain the explicit factorization of the cyclotomic polynomial ${\Phi_{2^nr}}$ over ${\mathbb {F}_{\rm q}}$ where both r ≥ 3 and q are odd, gcd(q, r) = 1, and ${n\in \mathbb{N}}$ . Previously, only the special cases when r = 1, 3, 5, had been achieved. For this we make the assumption that the explicit factorization of ${\Phi_r}$ over ${\mathbb {F}_{\rm q}}$ is given to us as a known. Let ${n = p_1^{e_1}p_2^{e_2}\cdots p_s^{e_s}}$ be the factorization of ${n \in \mathbb{N}}$ into powers of distinct primes p _i , 1 ≤ i ≤ s. In the case that the multiplicative orders of q modulo all these prime powers ${p_i^{e_i}}$ are pairwise coprime, we show how to obtain the explicit factors of ${\Phi_{n}}$ from the factors of each ${\Phi_{p_i^{e_i}}}$ . We also demonstrate how to obtain the factorization of ${\Phi_{mn}}$ from the factorization of ${\Phi_n}$ when q is a primitive root modulo m and ${{\rm gcd}(m, n) = {\rm gcd}(\phi(m),{\rm ord}_n(q)) = 1.}$ Here ${\phi}$ is the Euler’s totient function, and ord _n (q) denotes the multiplicative order of q modulo n. Moreover, we present the construction of a new class of irreducible polynomials over ${\mathbb {F}_{\rm q}}$ and generalize a result due to Varshamov (Soviet Math Dokl 29:334–336, 1984).     

Complete bounded null curves immersed in {\mathbb {C}^3} and {\rm {SL}(2,\mathbb {C})}

We construct a simply connected complete bounded mean curvature one surface in the hyperbolic 3-space ${\mathcal {H}^3}$ . Such a surface in ${\mathcal {H}^3}$ can be lifted as a complete bounded null curve in ${\rm {SL}(2,\mathbb {C})}$ . Using a transformation between null curves in ${\mathbb {C}^3}$ and null curves in ${\rm {SL}(2,\mathbb {C})}$ , we are able to produce the first examples of complete bounded null curves in ${\mathbb {C}^3}$ . As an application, we can show the existence of a complete bounded minimal surface in ${\mathbb {R}^3}$ whose conjugate minimal surface is also bounded. Moreover, we can show the existence of a complete bounded immersed complex submanifold in ${\mathbb {C}^2}$ .     

A decomposition of the universal embedding space for the near polygon {{\mathbb H}_n}

Let ${{\mathbb H}_n, n \geq 1}$ , be the near 2n-gon defined on the 1-factors of the complete graph on 2n?+?2 vertices, and let e denote the absolutely universal embedding of ${{\mathbb H}_n}$ into PG(W), where W is a ${\frac{1}{n+2} \left(\begin{array}{c}2n+2 \\ n+1\end{array}\right)}$ -dimensional vector space over the field ${{\mathbb F}_2}$ with two elements. For every point z of ${{\mathbb H}_n}$ and every ${i \in {\mathbb N}}$ , let Δ _i (z) denote the set of points of ${{\mathbb H}_n}$ at distance i from z. We show that for every pair {x, y} of mutually opposite points of ${{\mathbb H}_n, W}$ can be written as a direct sum ${W_0 \oplus W_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus W_n}$ such that the following four properties hold for every ${i \in \{0,\ldots,n \}}$ : (1) ${\langle e(\Delta_i(x) \cap \Delta_{n-i}(y)) \rangle = {\rm PG}(W_i)}$ ; (2) ${\left\langle e \left( \bigcup_{j \leq i} \Delta_j(x) \right) \right\rangle = {\rm PG}(W_0 \oplus W_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus W_i)}$ ; (3) ${\left\langle e \left( \bigcup_{j \leq i} \Delta_j(y) \right) \right\rangle = {\rm PG}(W_{n-i}\oplus W_{n-i+1} \oplus \cdots \oplus W_n)}$ ; (4) ${\dim(W_i) = |\Delta_i(x) \cap \Delta_{n-i}(y)| = \left(\begin{array}{c}n \\ i\end{array}\right)^2 - \left(\begin{array}{c}n \\ i-1\end{array}\right) \cdot \left(\begin{array}{c}n \\ i+1\end{array}\right)}$ .     

On Zero-Sum {\mathbb{Z}_k} -Magic Labelings of 3-Regular Graphs

Let G =  (V, E) be a finite loopless graph and let (A, +) be an abelian group with identity 0. Then an A-magic labeling of G is a function ${\phi}$ from E into A ? {0} such that for some ${a \in A, \sum_{e \in E(v)} \phi(e) = a}$ for every ${v \in V}$ , where E(v) is the set of edges incident to v. If ${\phi}$ exists such that a =  0, then G is zero-sum A-magic. Let zim(G) denote the subset of ${\mathbb{N}}$ (the positive integers) such that ${1 \in zim(G)}$ if and only if G is zero-sum ${\mathbb{Z}}$ -magic and ${k \geq 2 \in zim(G)}$ if and only if G is zero-sum ${\mathbb{Z}_k}$ -magic. We establish that if G is 3-regular, then ${zim(G) = \mathbb{N} - \{2\}}$ or ${\mathbb{N} - \{2,4\}.}$      

Uniqueness of integrable solutions to {\nabla \zeta=G \zeta, \zeta|_\Gamma = 0} for integrable tensor coefficients G and applications to elasticity

Let ${\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{N}}$ be a Lipschitz domain and Γ be a relatively open and non-empty subset of its boundary ${\partial\Omega}$ . We show that the solution to the linear first-order system $$\nabla \zeta = G\zeta, \, \, \zeta|_\Gamma = 0 \quad \quad \quad (1)$$ is unique if ${G \in \textsf{L}^{1}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{(N \times N) \times N})}$ and ${\zeta \in \textsf{W}^{1,1}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{N})}$ . As a consequence, we prove $$||| \cdot ||| : \textsf{C}_{o}^{\infty}(\Omega, \Gamma; \mathbb{R}^{3}) \rightarrow [0, \infty), \, \, u \mapsto \parallel {\rm sym}(\nabla uP^{-1})\parallel_{\textsf{L}^{2}(\Omega)}$$ to be a norm for ${P \in \textsf{L}^{\infty}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3})}$ with Curl ${P \in \textsf{L}^{p}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3})}$ , Curl ${P^{-1} \in \textsf{L}^{q}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3})}$ for some p, q > 1 with 1/p + 1/q = 1 as well as det ${P \geq c^+ > 0}$ . We also give a new and different proof for the so-called ‘infinitesimal rigid displacement lemma’ in curvilinear coordinates: Let ${\Phi \in \textsf{H}^{1}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3})}$ satisfy sym ${(\nabla\Phi^\top\nabla\Psi) = 0}$ for some ${\Psi \in \textsf{W}^{1,\infty}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3}) \cap \textsf{H}^{2}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3})}$ with det ${\nabla\Psi \geq c^+ > 0}$ . Then, there exist a constant translation vector ${a \in \mathbb{R}^{3}}$ and a constant skew-symmetric matrix ${A \in \mathfrak{so}(3)}$ , such that ${\Phi = A\Psi + a}$ .     

Nef line bundles on flag bundles on a curve over {\overline{{\mathbb F}}_p}

Let E be a vector bundle of rank r over an irreducible smooth projective curve X defined over the field ${\overline{{\mathbb F}}_p}$ F ¯ p . For fixed integers ${r_1\, , \ldots\, , r_\nu}$ r 1 , ... , r ν with ${1\, \leq\, r_1\, <\, \cdots\, <\, r_\nu\, <\, r}$ 1 ≤ r 1 < ? < r ν < r , let ${\text{Fl}(E)}$ Fl ( E ) be the corresponding flag bundle over X associated to E. Let ${\xi\, \longrightarrow \, {\rm Fl}(E)}$ ξ ? Fl ( E ) be a line bundle such that for every pair of the form ${(C\, ,\phi)}$ ( C , ? ) , where C is an irreducible smooth projective curve defined over ${\overline{\mathbb F}_p}$ F ¯ p and ${\phi\, :\, C\, \longrightarrow\, {\rm Fl}(E)}$ ? : C ? Fl ( E ) is a nonconstant morphism, the inequality ${{\rm degree}(\phi^* \xi)\, > \, 0}$ degree ( ? ? ξ ) > 0 holds. We prove that the line bundle ${\xi}$ ξ is ample.     

Harmonic mappings and conformal minimal immersions of Riemann surfaces into {\mathbb {R}^{\rm N}}

We prove that for any open Riemann surface ${\mathcal{N}}$ , natural number N ≥ 3, non-constant harmonic map ${h:\mathcal{N} \to \mathbb{R}}$ ^N?2 and holomorphic 2-form ${\mathfrak{H}}$ on ${\mathcal{N}}$ , there exists a weakly complete harmonic map ${X=(X_j)_{j=1,\ldots,{\sc N}}:\mathcal{N} \to \mathbb{R}^{\sc N}}$ with Hopf differential ${\mathfrak{H}}$ and ${(X_j)_{j=3,\ldots,{\sc N}}=h.}$ In particular, there exists a complete conformal minimal immersion ${Y=(Y_j)_{j=1,\ldots,{\sc N}}:\mathcal{N} \to \mathbb{R}^{\sc N}}$ such that ${(Y_j)_{j=3,\ldots,{\sc N}}=h}$ . As some consequences of these results (1) there exist complete full non-decomposable minimal surfaces with arbitrary conformal structure and whose generalized Gauss map is non-degenerate and fails to intersect N hyperplanes of ${\mathbb{CP}^{{\sc N}-1}}$ in general position. (2) There exist complete non-proper embedded minimal surfaces in ${\mathbb{R}^{\sc N},}$ ${\forall\,{\sc N} >3 .}$      

Koppelman formulas on flag manifolds and harmonic forms

We construct Koppelman formulas on manifolds of flags in ${\mathbb{C}^N}$ for forms with values in any holomorphic line bundle as well as in the tautological vector bundles and their duals. As an application we obtain new explicit proofs of some vanishing theorems of the Bott–Borel–Weil type by solving the corresponding ${\bar{\partial}}$ -equation. We also construct reproducing kernels for harmonic (p, q)-forms in the case of Grassmannians.     

Nikodym Maximal Functions Associated with Variable Planes in {\mathbb{R}^{3}}

Given a vector field ${\mathfrak{a}}$ on ${\mathbb{R}^3}$ , we consider a mapping ${x\mapsto \Pi_{\mathfrak{a}}(x)}$ that assigns to each ${x\in\mathbb{R}^3}$ , a plane ${\Pi_{\mathfrak{a}}(x)}$ containing x, whose normal vector is ${\mathfrak{a}(x)}$ . Associated with this mapping, we define a maximal operator ${\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_N}$ on ${L^1_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^3)}$ for each ${N\gg 1}$ by $$\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_Nf(x)=\sup_{x\in\tau} \frac{1}{|\tau|} \int_{\tau}|f(y)|\,dy$$ where the supremum is taken over all 1/N ×? 1/N?× 1 tubes τ whose axis is embedded in the plane ${\Pi_\mathfrak{a}(x)}$ . We study the behavior of ${\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_N}$ according to various vector fields ${\mathfrak{a}}$ . In particular, we classify the operator norms of ${\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_N}$ on ${L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)}$ when ${\mathfrak{a}(x)}$ is the linear function of the form (a ₁₁ x ₁?+?a ₂₁ x ₂, a ₁₂ x ₁?+?a ₂₂ x ₂, 1). The operator norm of ${\mathcal{M}^\mathfrak{a}_N}$ on ${L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)}$ is related with the number given by $$D=(a_{12}+a_{21})^2-4a_{11}a_{22}.$$      

A zoo of diffeomorphism groups on \mathbb{R }^{n}

We consider the groups ${\mathrm{Diff }}_\mathcal{B }(\mathbb{R }^n)$ , ${\mathrm{Diff }}_{H^\infty }(\mathbb{R }^n)$ , and ${\mathrm{Diff }}_{\mathcal{S }}(\mathbb{R }^n)$ of smooth diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{R }^n$ which differ from the identity by a function which is in either $\mathcal{B }$ (bounded in all derivatives), $H^\infty = \bigcap _{k\ge 0}H^k$ , or $\mathcal{S }$ (rapidly decreasing). We show that all these groups are smooth regular Lie groups.     

Isometric Embeddings Between the Near Polygons {\mathbb{H}_n} and {\mathbb{G}_n}

Let ${n \in \mathbb{N}\backslash \{0, 1, 2\}}$ . We prove that there exists up to equivalence one and up to isomorphism (n+1)(2n+1) isometric embeddings of the near 2n-gon ${\mathbb{H}_n}$ into the near 2n-gon ${\mathbb{G}_n}$ .     

Proper holomorphic mappings, Bell’s formula, and the Lu Qi-Keng problem on the tetrablock

We consider proper holomorphic maps ${\pi : D\rightarrow G}$ , where D and G are domains in ${\mathbb{C}^{n}}$ . Let ${\alpha\in \mathcal{C}(G,\mathbb{R}_{ > 0})}$ . We show that every π induces some subspace H of ${\mathbb{A}^{2}_{\alpha\circ\pi}(D)}$ such that ${\mathbb{A}^{2}_{\alpha}(G)}$ is isometrically isomorphic to H via some unitary operator Γ. Using this isomorphism we construct the orthogonal projection onto H, and we derive Bell’s transformation formula for the weighted Bergman kernel function under proper holomorphic mappings. As a consequence of the formula, we get that the tetrablock is not a Lu Qi-Keng domain.
