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.     

Beckman-Quarles type theorems for mappings from $$ \mathbb{R}^n $$ to $$ \mathbb{C}^n $$

Summary. Let We say that preserves the distance d 0 if for each implies Let A _n denote the set of all positive numbers d such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also distance d. Let D _n denote the set of all positive numbers d with the property: if and then there exists a finite set S _xy with such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also the distance between x and y. Obviously, We prove: (1) (2) for n 2 D _n is a dense subset of (2) implies that each mapping f from to (n 2) preserving unit distance preserves all distances, if f is continuous with respect to the product topologies on and

Pointwise estimates for relative fundamental solutions of heat equations in $${\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{C}}$$

Let be a subharmonic, nonharmonic polynomial and a parameter. Define , a closed, densely defined operator on . If and , we solve the heat equations , u(0,z) = f(z) and , . We write the solutions via heat semigroups and show that the solutions can be written as integrals against distributional kernels. We prove that the kernels are C ^∞ off of the diagonal {(s, z, w) : s = 0 and z = w} and find pointwise bounds for the kernels and their derivatives.      

On the structure of level sets of uniform and Lipschitz quotient mappings from $$ \mathbb{R}^n $$ to $$ \mathbb{R} $$

We study two questions posed by Johnson, Lindenstrauss, Preiss, and Schechtman, concerning the structure of level sets of uniform and Lipschitz quotient mappings from . We show that if , is a uniform quotient mapping then for every has a bounded number of components, each component of separates and the upper bound of the number of components depends only on and the moduli of co-uniform and uniform continuity of .Next we prove that all level sets of any co-Lipschitz uniformly continuous mapping from to are locally connected, and we show that for every pair of a constant and a function with , there exists a natural number , so that for every co-Lipschitz uniformly continuous map with a co-Lipschitz constant and a modulus of uniform continuity , there exists a natural number and a finite set with card so that for all has exactly components, has exactly components and each component of is homeomorphic with the real line and separates the plane into exactly 2 components. The number and form of components of for are also described - they have a finite tree structure.

In this paper, several nonexistence results on generalized bent functions \(f:\mathbb {Z}_{2}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb {Z}_{m}\) are presented by using the knowledge on cyclotomic number fields and their imaginary quadratic subfields.

Forbidden (0,1)-vectors in Hyperplanes of $$\mathbb{R}^{n}$$: The unrestricted case

In this paper, we continue our investigation on “Extremal problems under dimension constraints” introduced [1]. The general problem we deal with in this paper can be formulated as follows. Let be an affine plane of dimension k in . Given determine or estimate .Here we consider and solve the problem in the special case where is a hyperplane in and the “forbidden set” . The same problem is considered for the case, where is a hyperplane passing through the origin, which surprisingly turns out to be more difficult. For this case we have only partial results.AMS Classification: 05C35, 05B30, 52C99     

Surfaces in $${\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}}$$ with a canonical principal direction

We show a way to choose nice coordinates on a surface in and use this to study minimal surfaces. We show that only open parts of cylinders over a geodesic in are both minimal and flat. We also show that the condition that the projection of the direction tangent to onto the tangent space of the surface is a principal direction, is equivalent to the condition that the surface is normally flat in . We present classification theorems under the extra assumption of minimality or flatness. J. Fastenakels is a research assistant of the Research Foundation—Flanders (FWO). J.

Cyclic DNA codes over the ring $$\mathbb {F}_2+u\mathbb {F}_2+v\mathbb {F}_2+uv\mathbb {F}_2+v^2\mathbb {F}_2+uv^2\mathbb {F}_2$$

We study the structure of cyclic DNA codes of odd length over the finite commutative ring \(R=\mathbb {F}_2+u\mathbb {F}_2+v\mathbb {F}_2+uv\mathbb {F}_2 + v^2\mathbb {F}_2+uv^2\mathbb {F}_2,~u^2=0, v^3=v\), which plays an important role in genetics, bioengineering and DNA computing. A direct link between the elements of the ring R and 64 codons used in the amino acids of living organisms is established by introducing a Gray map from R to \(R_1=\mathbb {F}_2+u\mathbb {F}_2 ~(u^2=0)\). The reversible and the reversible-complement codes over R are investigated. We also discuss the binary image of the cyclic DNA codes over R. Among others, some examples of DNA codes obtained via Gray map are provided.     

Markov subshifts and partial representation of $$\mathbb{F}_{\text n}$$

In this paper we fix a set * of positive elements of the free group (e. g. the set of finite words occurring in a Markov subshift) as well as n partial isometries on a Hilbert space H. Based on these we define a map S : which we prove to be a partial representation of on H under certain conditions studied by Matsumoto.*Supported by Capes.     

Self-dual codes over \mathbb{Z}_8 and \mathbb{Z}_9

We study self-dual codes over the rings and . We define various weights and weight enumerators over these rings and describe the groups of invariants for each weight enumerator over the rings. We examine the torsion codes over these rings to describe the structure of self-dual codes. Finally we classify self-dual codes of small lengths over .

A note on the isotopy problem for $$ \mathbb{R}^2 $$ -planes

For a class of stable planes we define a notion of isotopy equivalence with respect to that class and prove that any two planes of a certain class of -planes comprising all affine -planes are isotopy equivalent. Furthermore we obtain that all affine -planes are isotopy equivalent in the class of affine -planes. Finally we give an example which shows that this approach cannot be easily generalized to 2-dimensional projective planes, and we outline a different way for a possible generalization.Received: 27 April 2001     

On sums of polynomial-type exceptional units in $$\varvec{\mathbb {Z}}/\varvec{n\mathbb {Z}}$$Z/nZ

A unit u in a commutative ring with unity R is called exceptional if $$u-1$$ is also a unit. We introduce the notion of a polynomial version of this (abbreviated as $$f\hbox {-exunits}$$) for any $$f(X) \in \mathbb {Z}[X]$$. We find the number of representations of a non-zero element of $$\mathbb {Z}/n\mathbb {Z}$$ as a sum of two f-exunits for an infinite family of polynomials f of each degree $$\ge 1$$. We also derive the exact formulae for certain infinite families of linear and quadratic polynomials. This generalizes a result proved by Sander (J Number Theory 159:1–6, 2016).
