Let be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex separable Hilbert space For an operator let be the Aluthge transform of T and we define for all where T = U|T| is a polar decomposition of T.

Set of involutions arising from an egglike inversive plane

To every egglike inversive plane there is associated a family of involutions of the point set of such that circles of are the fixed point sets of the involutions in . Korchmaros and Olanda characterized a family of involutions on a set of size n² + 1to be for an egglike inversive plane of order n by four conditions. In this paper, we give an alternative proof where the Galois space PG(3,n) in which is embedded is built up directly by using concepts and results on finite linear spaces.

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

Categorical Structures Enriched in a Quantaloid: Orders and Ideals over a Base Quantaloid

Applying (enriched) categorical structures we define the notion of ordered sheaf on a quantaloid , which we call ‘ -order’. This requires a theory of semicategories enriched in the quantaloid , that admit a suitable Cauchy completion. There is a quantaloid of -orders and ideal relations, and a locally ordered category of -orders and monotone maps; actually, . In particular is , with Ω a locale, the category of ordered objects in the topos of sheaves on Ω. In general -orders can equivalently be described as Cauchy complete categories enriched in the split-idempotent completion of . Applied to a locale Ω this generalizes and unifies previous treatments of (ordered) sheaves on Ω in terms of Ω-enriched structures.Mathematics Subject Classifications (2000) 06F07, 18B35, 18D05, 18D20.     

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 .

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.

The asymptotic expansions of the trace of the heat kernel θ(t)=∑^∞v=1^exp(-tλv) for small positive t,where {λv} are the eigenvalues of the negative Laplacian -△n=-∑^ni=1(D/Dx^1)^2 in R^2(n=2 or 3),are studied for a general annular bounded domain Ω with a smooth inner boundary DΩ1 and a smooth outer boundary DΩ2,where a finite number of piecewise smooth Robin boundary conditions(D/Dnj γh)Ф=0 on the components Гj(j= 1,...,m) of (DΩ1 and on the components Гj (j=k 1,…,m) of of DΩ2 are considered such that DΩl=U^kj=lГj and DΩ2= U^m=k 1Гj and where the coefficients γj(j=1,...,m) are piecewise smooth positive functions. Some applications of θ(t) for an ideal gas enclosed in the general annular bounded domain Ω are given. Further results are also obtained.
