Combinatorial Lie bialgebras of curves on surfaces

Goldman (Invent. Math. 85(2) (1986) 263) and Turaev (Ann. Sci. Ecole Norm. Sup. (4) 24 (6) (1991) 635) found a Lie bialgebra structure on the vector space generated by non-trivial free homotopy classes of curves on a surface. When the surface has non-empty boundary, this vector space has a basis of cyclic reduced words in the generators of the fundamental group and their inverses. We give a combinatorial algorithm to compute this Lie bialgebra on this vector space of cyclic words. Using this presentation, we prove a variant of Goldman's result relating the bracket to disjointness of curve representatives when one of the classes is simple. We exhibit some examples we found by programming the algorithm which answer negatively Turaev's question about the characterization of simple curves in terms of the cobracket. Further computations suggest an alternative characterization of simple curves in terms of the bracket of a curve and its inverse. Turaev's question is still open in genus zero.     

The Hopf Property for Subgroups of Hyperbolic Groups

A group is said to be Hopfian if every surjective endomorphism of the group is injective. We show that finitely generated subgroups of torsion-free hyperbolic groups are Hopfian. Our proof generalizes a theorem of Sela (Topology 35 (2) 1999, 301–321).

火焰原子吸收法测定霞石中的氧化钾和氧化钠

本方法用于测定霞石中的钾、钠，主要通过在溶样时加入氢氟酸除去二氧化硅，调整溶液中钾、钠的含量，消除互相之间的干扰，加入氯化铯消除电离因素的干扰，提高了分析结果的准确性和重现性，使测定结果更接近化学分析值。回收率为99．2％-101．6％。     

K-非常凸空间

本文引入了一种新的K凸空间K-非常凸空间,及其对偶空间K-非常光滑空间,它们分别是非常凸空间和非常光滑空间的推广但又严格弱于非常凸空间和非常光滑空间,因此它们又有许多独特的性质.本文讨论了它们的一些特性及与其它K凸性和K光滑性的关系,推广了[3]、[6]、[7]、[8]中的一些结果.     

Some 3-manifolds with 2-generated fundamental group

We describe a family of graph manifolds that have 2-generated fundamental group but do not admit a Heegaard splitting of genus 2. They are closely related to the examples provided by Boileau and Zieschang if these are considered as (non-proper) graph manifolds.Received: 14 August 2002

Discrepancy operators and numerical integration on compact groups

In this paper we establish an inequality of Koksma-Hlawka-type for compact groups. We first define a discrepancy for compact groups based on discrepancy operators introduced by W. Fleischer and show the relation to the classicalL ²-discrepancy. Then we prove the inequality for functions in a weightedL ²-space.
