On ηα-groups and fields

Let :=. The following are known: two -sets of power are isomorphic. Let >0. Two ordered divisible Abelian groups that are -sets of power are isomorphic, two real closed fields that are -sets of power are isomorphic. The following is shown: (1) there exist 2 nonisomorphic ordered Abelian groups (respectively ordered fields) that are -sets of power ; (2) there exist 2 nonisomorphic ordered divisible Abelian groups (respectively real closed fields) of power all having the same order type; (3) there exist 2 nonisomorphic ordered divisible Abelian groups (respectively real closed fields) that are -sets having the same order type.

Parabolic subgroups of Chevalley groups over a semilocal ring

Let G be the Chevalley group over a commutative semilocal ring R which is associated with a root system . The parabolic subgroups of G are described in the work. A system =() of ideals in R ( runs through all roots of the system ) is called a net of ideals in the commutative ring R if ₊ for all those roots and for which + is also a root. A net is called parabolic if =R for >0. The main theorem: under minor additional assumptions all parabolic subgroups of G are in bijective correspondence with all parabolic nets . The paper is related to two works of K. Suzuki in which the parabolic subgroups of G are described under more stringent conditions.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im. V. A.

Sum of Divisors in a Ring of Gaussian Integers

We construct an asymptotic formula for a sum function for _a (), where _a () is the sum of the ath powers of the norms of divisors of the Gaussian integer on an arithmetic progression ₀ (mod ) and in a narrow sector ₁ arg < ₂. For this purpose, we use a representation of _a (n) in the form of a series in the Ramanujan sums.     

Semi-Classical Analysis of a Dirac Equation Without Adiabatic Decoupling

We study adiabatic decoupling for Dirac equation with some scaling which yields that the mass appears with a coefficient where is the semi-classical parameter and > 0. Therefore, the system presents an avoided crossing. The scale = 1/2 is critical: adiabatic decoupling holds for (0,1/2) while for 1/2, there is energy transfer at leading order between the two modes. We describe this transfer in terms of two-scale Wigner measures by means of Landau-Zener formula which takes into account the change of polarization of the measures after the crossing.     

K1 of Twisted Rings of Polynomials

We prove that for an arbitrary endomorphism of a ring R the group K1(R[t]) splits into the direct sum of K1(R) and Ñil (r;). Moreover, for any such R and Ñil (R; ) is isomorphic to Ñil (R ; ) for some ring R with : R R – an isomorphism.

Characterization of Dirichlet Forms by their Excessive and Co–Excessive Elements

It is proved that if S, T are two elliptic Dirichlet operators on an ordered Hilbert space such that the excessive (resp. coexcessive) elements with respect to S and T are the same then there exists > 0 with T = S. Particularly if , are two elliptic Dirichlet forms on L² ( ) having the same domain of definition and the same -excessive (resp. -coexcessive) elements for any > 0 then = .     

On Some Interpolation Rules for Lattice Ordered Groups

Let be an infinite cardinal. In this paper we define an interpolation rule IR() for lattice ordered groups. We denote by C() the class of all lattice ordered groups satisfying IR(), and prove that C() is a radical class.     

An alternative construction of Conway's ordered field No

An -universally extending ordered field of power is constructed for each regular power where 0 < On and . When is inaccessible, the structure is either a (set) model of J. H. Conway's ordered field No or an isomorphic copy of No depending on whether or not is a set or a proper class.Presented by Jan Mycielski.     

A method to obtain some similarity solutions to the generalized Newtonian fluid

It is shown that a similarity solution to the Rayieigh flow problem for a generalized Newtonian fluid exists if the fluid boundary (y=0) is given a velocityU(t) t ^1/2. Furthermore, if the fluid is of the power-law type then similarity solutions exist ifU(t) t (orU(t) e ^t), where is any real number.

Extremal partition and estimates for the coefficients in the class σ(r)

Let be the known class of functions f(z)=z+₀+₁z^–1+..., that are meromorphic and univalent in the region U^*={z ¦z¦ < 1}, and let (r) be the class of functions of for which f(U^*) does not contain a singly connected domain D_f, 0 D_f, with conformal radius r with respect to the coordinate origin, 0 < r < 1. Sharp inequalities are obtained for certain functionals, and sharp bounds are obtained for ¦ ₁ ¦ and ¦ ₂ ¦ in the class (r). The proof illustrates the possibility of using results with a symmetrization character in problems on extremal partition of a Riemannian sphere to obtain sharp bounds for coefficients in the classes and (r).Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Differentiability properties of the minimal average action

Given aZ ⁿ⁺¹-periodic variational principle onR ⁿ⁺¹ we look for solutionsu:R ⁿ R minimizing the variational integral with respect to compactly supported variations. To every vector R ⁿ we consider a subset of solutions which have an average slope when averaging overR ⁿ. The minimal average action A() is defined by the average value of the variational integral given by a solution with average slope . Our main result is:A is differentiable at if and only if the set is totally ordered (in the natural sense). In case that is not totally ordered,A is differentiable at in some direction R ⁿ{0} if and only if is orthogonal to the subspace defined by the rational dependency of . Assuming that the i^th component of is rational with denominator sⁱ N in lowest terms, we show: The difference of right- and left-sided derivative in the i^th standard unit direction is bounded by const · .     

Parabolic subgroups of twisted Chevalley groups over a semilocal ring

It is shown that, under minor additional assumptions, the standard parabolic subgroups of a Chevalley group G (, R) of twisted type =A_l,l odd, D_l, E₆ over a commutative semilocal ring R with involution are in one-to-one correspondence with the -invariant parabolic nets of ideals of R of type , i.e., with the sets, of ideals of R such that: (l) whenever; (2) = for all ; (3) =R for > 0.

On cyclic biquadratic fields related to a problem of Hasse

In this note we shall prove that there exist infinitely many cyclic biquadratic fieldsK whose integral bases are neither {1, , ², } nor {1, , , ³) for any numbers , inK. Next, we shall construct infinitely many cyclic biquadratic fieldsK which have the index 1, but still have not the integral basis {1, , ², ³) for every inK. Finally we shall give a class of biquadratic fields for a problem of Hasse concerning an integral basis.
