Generalized constant ratio surfaces in \mathbb{E}^3

It iswell-known that the positionvector function is themost basic geometric object for a surface immersed in the three dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^3 $ . In 2001, B.-Y. Chen defined constant ratio hypersurfaces in Euclidean n-spaces. Independently, in 2010, by using another approach in dimension 3, the second author classified constant slope surfaces. In this paper, we extend this concept in order to study surfaces with the property that the tangential component of the position vector is a principal direction on the surface.     

Constructing infinitely many smooth structures on $3\mathbb{CP}^2 \# n\overline{\mathbb{CP}}^2$

Using Seiberg-Witten theory and rational blow-down procedures of R. Fintushel and R.J. Stern, we construct infinitely many irreducible smooth structures, both symplectic and non-symplectic, on the four-manifold for each integer n lying in the interval .

Quasi-convex Mappings on the Unit Polydisk in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$

In this paper, the sharp estimates of all homogeneous expansions for f are established, where f(z) = (f ₁(z), f ₂(z), …, f _n (z))′ is a k-fold symmetric quasi-convex mapping defined on the unit polydisk in ℂ ⁿ and

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 ${\mathcal{N}.}$      

Stability of Viscoelastic Wave Equation with Structural $\delta$-Evolution in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$

The aim of this paper is to study the Cauchy problem for the viscoelastic wave equation for structural $\delta$-evolution models. By using the energy method in the Fourier spaces, we obtain the decay estimates of the solution to considered problem.     

Global bifurcation for quasilinear elliptic equations on $\mathbb{R}^{N}$

In this paper we discuss the global behaviour of some connected sets of solutions of a broad class of second order quasilinear elliptic equations for where is a real parameter and the function u is required to satisfy the condition The basic tool is the degree for proper Fredholm maps of index zero in the form due to Fitzpatrick, Pejsachowicz and Rabier. To use this degree the problem must be expressed in the form where J is an interval, X and Y are Banach spaces and F is a map which is Fredholm and proper on closed bounded subsets. We use the usual spaces and . Then the main difficulty involves finding general conditions on and b which ensure the properness of F. Our approach to this is based on some recent work where, under the assumption that and b are asymptotically periodic in x as $\left| x\right| \rightarrow\infty$, we have obtained simple conditions which are necessary and sufficient for to be Fredholm and proper on closed bounded subsets of X. In particular, the nonexistence of nonzero solutions in X of the asymptotic problem plays a crucial role in this issue. Our results establish the bifurcation of global branches of solutions for the general problem. Various special cases are also discussed. Even for semilinear equations of the form our results cover situations outside the scope of other methods in the literature.

Estimating the cardinality of a difference subset of the discrete multi-torus $\mathbb{Z}_{3}^{n}$

Isometric embeddings of \mathbb{Z}_{p^k} in the Hamming space \mathbb{F}_{p}^{N} and \mathbb{Z}_{p^k}-linear codes

Isometric embeddings of $\mathbb{Z}_{p^n+1}$ into the Hamming space ( $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{p^n},w$ ) have played a fundamental role in recent constructions of non-linear codes. The codes thus obtained are very good codes, but their rate is limited by the rate of the first-order generalized Reed–Muller code—hence, when n is not very small, these embeddings lead to the construction of low-rate codes. A natural question is whether there are embeddings with higher rates than the known ones. In this paper, we provide a partial answer to this question by establishing a lower bound on the order of a symmetry of ( $\mathbb{F}_{p}^{N},w$ ).     

Superficie cubiche di\mathbb{A}_\mathbb{C}^3 a curve sottoinsieme intersezione completa

Summary In this paper we classify the algebraic cubic surfaces of the affine space is the complex field, whose algebraic curves are set-theoretic complete intersections of ; in other words surfaces such that every prime ideal of height 1in the coordinate ring [] of is the radical of a principal ideal; if is non singular in codimension 1this means that [] is semifactorial. We give the equations of such surfaces within linear isomorphisms of providing also methods by which one can construct the equations of the surfaces cutting on its curves as set-theoretic complete intersections. Moreover for each of these surfaces we determine the minimum positive number such that every algebraic curve of with multiplicity of intersection , is complete intersection of itself with another surface § 8where the results are summarized). We tackle also the problem of such a classification over algebraically closed fields k different from .

Linearity and Second Fundamental Forms for Proper Holomorphic Maps from \mathbb{B}^{n+1} to \mathbb{B}^{4n-3}

For a holomorphic proper map F from the ball $\mathbb{B}^{n+1}$ into $\mathbb{B}^{N+1}$ that is C ³ smooth up to the boundary, the image $M=F(\partial\mathbb{B}^{n})$ is an immersed CR submanifold in the sphere $\partial \mathbb{B}^{N+1}$ on which some second fundamental forms II _M and $\mathit{II}^{CR}_{M}$ can be defined. It is shown that when 4??n+1<N+1??4n?3, F is linear fractional if and only if $\mathit{II}_{M} - \mathit{II}_{M}^{CR} \equiv 0$ .     

Minimal generating and normally generating sets for the braid and mapping class groups of \mathbb{D }^{2}, \mathbb S ^{2} and \mathbb{R P^2}

We consider the (pure) braid groups $B_{n}(M)$ and $P_{n}(M)$ , where $M$ is the $2$ -sphere $\mathbb S ^{2}$ or the real projective plane $\mathbb R P^2$ . We determine the minimal cardinality of (normal) generating sets $X$ of these groups, first when there is no restriction on $X$ , and secondly when $X$ consists of elements of finite order. This improves on results of Berrick and Matthey in the case of $\mathbb S ^{2}$ , and extends them in the case of $\mathbb R P^2$ . We begin by recalling the situation for the Artin braid groups ( $M=\mathbb{D }^{2}$ ). As applications of our results, we answer the corresponding questions for the associated mapping class groups, and we show that for $M=\mathbb S ^{2}$ or $\mathbb R P^2$ , the induced action of $B_n(M)$ on $H_3(\widetilde{F_n(M)};\mathbb{Z })$ is trivial, $F_{n}(M)$ being the $n^\mathrm{th}$ configuration space of $M$ .

Infinitely many bound state solutions of Schrodinger-Poisson equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$

In this paper, we study a system of Schr\"odinger-Poisson equation \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{c} -\Delta u+a(x)u+K(x)\phi u=|u|^{p-2}u,\quad \quad \quad \ \ \ \ \ \ x\in \mathbb{R}^3, \-\Delta \phi=K(x)u^2,\quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \quad \ x\in \mathbb{R}^3, \end{array} \right. \] where $p\in (4,6)$ and $ K\geq (\not\equiv) 0$. Under some suitable decay assumptions but without any symmetry property on $a$ and $K$, we obtain infinitely many solutions of this system.
