A cubic Hénon-like map in the unfolding of degenerate homoclinic orbit with resonance

In this Note, we study the unfolding of a vector field that possesses a degenerate homoclinic (of inclination-flip type) to a hyperbolic equilibrium point where its linear part possesses a resonance. For the unperturbed system, the resonant term associated with the resonance vanishes. After suitable rescaling, the Poincaré return map is a cubic Hénon-like map. We deduce the existence of a strange attractor which persists in the Lebesgue measure sense. We also show the presence of an attractor with topological entropy close to $\log 3$.

Multipoint matrix Padé approximant bounds on effective anisotropic transport coefficients of two-phase media

It is well known that a tensor Stieltjes function f represents an effective transport coefficient q of an inhomogeneous medium consisting of two isotropic components. In this paper, we investigate multipoint matrix Padé approximants to matrix expansions of f. We prove that matrix Padé ones to f estimate f from the top and below. Consequently the Padé approximants to q form upper and lower bounds on q. The inequalities for matrix Padé bounds on f and q are established. They reduce to the inequalities for scalar Padé ones Tokarzewski (ZAMP 61:773–780, 2010). As an illustrative example, matrix Padé estimates of an effective conductivity of a specially laminated two-phase medium are computed.

Étale covers of affine spaces in positive characteristicRevêtements étales des espaces affines en caractéristique positive

We prove that every projective, geometrically reduced scheme of dimension n over an infinite field k of positive characteristic admits a finite morphism over some finite radicial extension k′ of k to projective n-space, étale away from the hyperplane H at infinity, which maps a chosen Weil divisor into H and a chosen smooth geometric point of X not on the divisor to some point not in H.

Least squares cross-validation for the kernel deconvolution density estimatorValidation croisée pour l'estimateur à noyau de la déconvolution d'une densité

Assume we have i.i.d. replications from the corrupted random variable Y=X+ε, where X and ε are independent. We propose a data-driven bandwidth based on cross-validation ideas, for the kernel deconvolution estimator of the density of X. The proposed method is shown to be asymptotically optimal.

Equidistribution of Hecke Eigenforms on the Arithmetic Surface Γ0(N)\H

Given the orthonormal basis of Hecke eigenforms in S_2k(Γ(1)), Luo established an associated probability measure dμ_k on the modular surface Γ(1)\H that tends weakly to the invariant measure on Γ(1)\H. We generalize his result to the arithmetic surface Γ₀(N)\H where N?1 is square-free     

A new approach to the fundamental theorem of surface theory,by means of the Darboux–Vallée–Fortuné compatibility relation

Let ω be a simply-connected open subset of ${\mathbb{R}}^2$. Given two smooth enough fields of positive definite symmetric, and symmetric, matrices defined over ω, the fundamental theorem of surface theory asserts that, if these fields satisfy the Gauss and Codazzi–Mainardi relations in ω, then there exists an immersion θ from ω into ${\mathbb{R}}^3$ such that these fields are the first and second fundamental forms of the surface $\mathit{\theta }(\omega )$.We revisit here this classical result by establishing that a new compatibility relation, shown to be necessary by C. Vallée and D. Fortuné in 1996 through the introduction, following an idea of G. Darboux, of a rotation field on a surface, is also sufficient for the existence of such an immersion θ.This approach also constitutes a first step toward the analysis of models for nonlinear elastic shells where the rotation field along the middle surface is considered as one of the primary unknowns.     

Θ-summability of Fourier series

A general summability method of orthogonal series is given with the help of an integrable function Θ. Under some conditions on Θ we show that if the maximal Fejér operator is bounded from a Banach space X to Y, then the maximal Θ-operator is also bounded. As special cases the trigonometric Fourier, Walsh, Walsh--Kaczmarz, Vilenkin and Ciesielski--Fourier series and the Fourier transforms are considered. It is proved that the maximal operator of the Θ-means of these Fourier series is bounded from H _p to L _p (1/2<p≤; ∞) and is of weak type (1,1). In the endpoint case p=1/2 a weak type inequality is derived. As a consequence we obtain that the Θ-means of a function f∈L ₁ converge a.e. to f. Some special cases of the Θ-summation are considered, such as the Weierstrass, Picar, Bessel, Riesz, de la Vallée-Poussin, Rogosinski and Riemann summations. Similar results are verified for several-dimensional Fourier series and Hardy spaces.     

A Banach-Dieudonné theorem for germs of holomorphic functions

Let $\text{H}$(U) denote the space of all holomorphic functions on an open subset U of a complex Fréchet space E. Let $\text{H}$(K) denote the space of all holomorphic germs on a compact subset K of E. It is shown that $\text{H}$(K), with a natural topology, is the inductive limit of a suitable sequence of compact subsets, within the category of all topological spaces. As an application of this result it is shown that the compact-ported topology introduced by Nachbin coincides with the compact-open topology on $\text{H}$(U) whenever U is a balanced open subset of a Fréchet-Schwartz space. This last result improves earlier results of P. Boland and S. Dineen [Bull. Soc. Math. France106 (1978), 311–336], R. Meise [Proc. Roy. Irish Acad. Sect. A81 (1981), 217–223], and others.     

Embedded resolutions of non necessarily normal affine toric varietiesRésolution plongée d'une variété torique non nécessairement normale

We give a method to construct a partial embedded resolution of a nonnecessarily normal affine toric variety Z^Γ equivariantly embedded in a normal affine toric variety Z_ρ. This partial resolution is an embedded normalization inside a normal toric ambient space and a resolution of singularities of the ambient space, which always exists, provides an embedded resolution. The advantage is that this partial resolution is completely determined by the embedding Z^Γ?Z_ρ. As a by-product, the construction of the normalization is made without an explicit computation of the saturation of the semigroup Γ of the toric variety (see [3]). This result is valid for a base field k algebraically closed of arbitrary characteristic. To cite this article: P.D. González Pérez, B. Teissier, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 334 (2002) 379–382.     

Theta Series of Quaternion Algebras over Function Fields

Let K be the function field over a finite field of odd order, and let H be a definite quaternion algebra over K. If Λ is an order of level M in H, we define theta series for each ideal I of Λ using the reduced norm on H. Using harmonic analysis on the completed algebra H_∞ and the arithmetic of quaternion algebras, we establish a transformation law for these theta series. We also define analogs of the classical Hecke operators and show that in general, the Hecke operators map the theta series to a linear combination of theta series attached to different ideals, a generalization of the classical Eichler Commutation Relation.     

Groupes vectoriels et schéma de Picard

This Note contains slight variations on a well known theme: linear sub-groups of the Picard functor of a proper scheme over a field k. In particular, we give exemples of a field k, with positive characteristic, and a projective k-scheme X, normal, but not geometrically reduced, such that the neutral component of its Picard functor is representable by a nonzero vectorial group scheme.

An example of a nuclear space in infinite dimensional holomorphy

LetU be an open subset of a complex locally convex spaceE, andH(U) the space of holomorphic functions fromU toC. If the dualE′ ofE is nuclear with respect to the topology generated by the absolutely convex compact subsets ofE, then it is shown thatH(U) endowed with the compact open topology is a nuclear space. In particular, ifE is the strong dual of a Fréchet nuclear space, thenH(U) is a Fréchet nuclear space.     

Albanese and Picard 1-motives

We define, in a purely algebraic way, 1-motives Alb⁺(X), Alb⁻(X), Pic⁺(X), and Pic⁻(X) associated with any algebraic scheme X over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. For X over C of dimension n, the Hodge realizations are, respectively, H^{2n − 1} (X, Z(n))/(torsion), H₁ (X, Z)/(torsion), H¹ (X, Z(1)), and H_{2n − 1} (X, Z(1 n))/(torsion).     

Sur la catégorie Db,G(X) pour G réductif fini

In this Note, we are interested in the G-equivariant derived category of a smooth projective scheme over an algebraically closed field k, on which a reductive finite group G is acting. We compare the G-equivariant derived category of X with the derived category of the quotient by giving a descent criterion. The result generalizes a theorem of Lønsted in G-equivariant K-theory on curves (K. Lønsted, J. Math. Kyoto Univ. 23 (4) (1983) 775–793). We also give an equivariant version of Be??linson's equivalence of categories (Funct. Anal. Appl. 12 (1979) 214–216) and treat the exemple of the projective line. To cite this article: S.

Extended quasi-homogeneous polynomial system in {\mathbb{R}^{3}}

In this paper we define an extended quasi-homogeneous polynomial system d x/dt = Q = Q ₁ + Q ₂ + ... + Q _δ , where Q _i are some 3-dimensional quasi-homogeneous vectors with weight α and degree i, i = 1, . . . ,δ. Firstly we investigate the limit set of trajectory of this system. Secondly let Q _T be the projective vector field of Q. We show that if δ ≤ 3 and the number of closed orbits of Q _T is known, then an upper bound for the number of isolated closed orbits of the system is obtained. Moreover this upper bound is sharp for δ = 3. As an application, we show that a 3-dimensional polynomial system of degree 3 (resp. 5) admits 26 (resp. 112) isolated closed orbits. Finally, we prove that a 3-dimensional Lotka-Volterra system has no isolated closed orbits in the first octant if it is extended quasi-homogeneous.     

Vibration of a pre-constrained elastic thin shell II: Intrinsic exact modelVibration d'une coque élastique mince pré-contrainte II

We study the vibration of an elastic thin shell which is pre-constrained by a large displacement with a small deformation. In this second Note we come up with an exact model p(d,∞) in intrinsic geometry. We take advantage of the exactness of the model for the existence and regularity of its the solutions.

On considère le cas oùσ(R)=1, en particulier siR′ est une extension minimale deR. Plusieurs calculs sont facilités par un résultat sur les carrés cartésiens, et il y a des exemples divers.     

Amplitude des oscillations d'ondes solitaires généralisées

Various physical systems of dispersive waves admit solutions in the form of generalized solitary waves. Such waves result from the resonance between a long localized wave and short periodic oscillations. Many estimates (rigorous and numerical) have been given for the amplitude of the ripples in the tail of the generalized solitary wave when its central part has a sech² shape. This Note provides estimates (not yet rigorous) for the ripple amplitude when the central part is flat and wide. To cite this article: C. Fochesato, F. Dias, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser.

Une axiomatisation de la substitution

We investigate the notion of substitution in an abstract way, without defining it explicitly. We single out the essential features of the operation of performing a substitution in order to define a concept of substitutive structure, called logos. We then prove a completeness theorem making precise and justifying the intuition that formulas true for the usual substitution can be proved from the logos axioms only.
