Geometric Dynamics

A kinematic differential system on a Riemann (or semi-Riemann) manifold induces a Lorentz-Udrite world-force law, i.e., any local group with one parameter (any local flow) on a Riemann (or semi-Riemann) manifold induces the dynamics of the given vector field or of an associated particle, which will be called geometric dynamics.The cases of Riemann-Jacobi or Riemann-Jacobi-Lagrange structures are imposed by the behavior of an external tensor field of type (1,1). The case of the Finsler-Jacobi structure appears if the initial metric is chosen such that the energy of the given vector field is constant (Sec. 1). At the end of Sec. 1 are formulated open problems regarding some extensions of geometric dynamics.Adequate structures on the tangent bundle describe the geometric dynamics in the Hamilton language (Sec. 2).Section 3 proves the existence of a Finsler-Jacobi structure induced by an almost contact metric structure.The theory is applied to electromagnetic dynamical systems (the starting point of our theory), offering new principles of unification of the gravitation and the electromagnetism. Also, here, one enounces open problems regarding the geometric dynamics induced by the electric intensity and magnetizing force (Sec. 4).From the geometrical point of view, we create a wider class of Riemann-Jacobi, Riemann-Jacobi-Lagrange, or Finsler-Jacobi manifolds ensuring that all trajectories of a given vector field are geodesics. Having T₁M²ⁿ⁺¹ in mind, the problem of creating a wider class of Riemannian manifolds, in which there exists a vector field such that (1) all trajectories of the vector field are geodesics; (2) the flow defined by is incompressible; (3) the condition which corresponds to the property that is the associate vector field of the contact structure is satisfied;was studied intensively by S. Sasaki. The results were not satisfactory, but Sasaki discovered (, , )-structures [10].AMS Subject Classification (1991): 70H35, 53C22, 58F25, 83C22     

Approximation of Multiple Stratonovich Fractional Integrals

Abstract

We study multiple Riemann-Stieltjes integral approximations to multiple Stratonovich fractional integrals. Two standard approximations (Wong-Zakai and Mollifier approximations) are considered and we show the convergence in the mean square sense and uniformly on compact time intervals of these approximations to the multiple Stratonovich fractional integral.

We prove: (1) if for , then for ; (2) if for , then again for . Both results are special cases of theorems expressing the irreducibility of the spectrum near .

     

Structure of supercooled water in clusters and bulk and its relation to the two-state picture of water: Results from the TIP4P-ice model

The structure of water clusters (H₂O)_n (n = 40 -200) and bulk water were examined by molecular dynamics simulations using the TIP4P-ice water model. The analysis of the low-temperature structures in terms of the local structure index (LSI) showed a bimodal distribution. This finding supports the two-state picture derived from the analysis of the inherent dynamics of bulk SPC/E water. The water molecules at the outer interface of the coldest clusters are more structured than those in the inner core. The geometrical constraint of the interface forces the surface molecules to lose one neighbor and adopt a local angular distribution of hydrogen bonds resembling that found in the basal plane of ice Ih.     

Block-Projections Algorithms with Blocks Containing Mutually Orthogonal Rows and Columns

In this paper we present an algorithm which, for a given (sparse) matrix, constructs a partition of its set of row-indices, such that each subset of this partition (except the last one obtained) contains indices which correspond to mutually orthogonal rows. We then use such decompositions in some classes of block-projections methods, previously extended by the author to general inconsistent linear least-squares problems. Numerical experiments on an inconsistent and rank-deficient least-squares model problem are described in the last section of the paper.     

Shaping of intense ion beams into hollow cylindrical form

A specifically tailored plasma lens could shape a high-energy, heavy-ion beam into the form of a hollow cylinder without loss of beam intensity. It has been experimentally confirmed that both a positive as well as a negative radial gradient of the current density in the active plasma lens can be the underlying principle. Calculations were performed that yield the ideal current density distribution for both cases. A numerical simulation of an experiment with an intense ion beam highlights that the shaping of the beam increases the achievable compression in a lead sample.

External Homogenization for Hopf Algebras: Applications to Maschke's Theorem

We apply to Hopf algebras a construction from graded rings, called the group ring of a graded ring. By using this construction we study the transfer of properties between certain categories of relative Hopf modules. As another application, we obtain a Maschke-type theorem for a Galois extension over a semisimple Hopf algebra.     

High-resolution infrared and subterahertz spectroscopy of the v2 = 1, v5 = 1, and v3 = 2 levels of CH3Cl

High-resolution Fourier-transform infrared spectra between 1235 and 1680 cm⁻¹ and subterahertz spectra between 250 and 630 GHz of monoisotopic ¹³CH₃³⁵Cl have been recorded and analyzed simultaneously, with all Coriolis, α-resonance, and l-type interactions in the polyad of the v₂ = 1, v₅ = 1, and v₃ = 2 levels taken into account. Several α-resonances (Δk = ±2, Δl = ?1) generating perturbation-allowed transitions have been assigned in the rovibrational spectra. These resonances enabled us to determine accurately and independently the ground state rotational and centrifugal distortion parameters A₀ = 5.205 746 9 (55) cm⁻¹ and . Even , which is, however, correlated to higher-order α-resonance terms, was determined. With 51 upper state parameters varied, about 5800 rovibrational wavenumbers and more than 550 rotational frequencies pertaining to the excited vibrational states were fitted within their experimental accuracy.
