This paper is concerned with tight closure in a commutative Noetherian ring of prime characteristic , and is motivated by an argument of K. E. Smith and I. Swanson that shows that, if the sequence of Frobenius powers of a proper ideal of has linear growth of primary decompositions, then tight closure (of ) `commutes with localization at the powers of a single element'. It is shown in this paper that, provided has a weak test element, linear growth of primary decompositions for other sequences of ideals of that approximate, in a certain sense, the sequence of Frobenius powers of would not only be just as good in this context, but, in the presence of a certain additional finiteness property, would actually imply that tight closure (of ) commutes with localization at an arbitrary multiplicatively closed subset of .
Work of M. Katzman on the localization problem for tight closure raised the question as to whether the union of the associated primes of the tight closures of the Frobenius powers of has only finitely many maximal members. This paper develops, through a careful analysis of the ideal theory of the perfect closure of , strategies for showing that tight closure (of a specified ideal of ) commutes with localization at an arbitrary multiplicatively closed subset of and for showing that the union of the associated primes of the tight closures of the Frobenius powers of is actually a finite set. Several applications of the strategies are presented; in most of them it was already known that tight closure commutes with localization, but the resulting affirmative answers to Katzman's question in the various situations considered are believed to be new.
A biomechanical model of human lung is developed and used to investigate the effect of gravity on lung deformation. The lung is assumed to behave as a poro-elastic medium with spatially dependent elastic property. Finite element analysis is performed on a three-dimensional (3D) lung geometry reconstructed from a four-dimensional Computed Tomography (4DCT) scan dataset of human patient. The spatially dependent Young’s modulus (YM) values are estimated using inverse analysis from a linear elastic deformation model. The predicted deformation of selected landmarks is monitored with and without gravity, and compared with data obtained from 4DCT registration. The results show that gravity indeed significantly affects the magnitude and distribution of lung deformation with the maximum displacement enhanced by 54% in the direction of gravity, for the conditions investigated. In summary, the accuracy of predicted deformation is improved through incorporation of gravity in the biomechanical model of lung. 相似文献
Finite dimensional ribbon Hopf(super) algebras play an important role in constructing invariants of 3-manifolds. In the present paper, the authors give a necessary and sufficient condition for the Drinfeld double of a finite dimensional Hopf superalgebra to have a ribbon element. The criterion can be seen as a generalization of Kauffman and Radford's result in the non-super situation to the ■_2-graded situation, however, the derivation of the result in the ■_2-graded case will be much more complicated. 相似文献
In this paper, Galerkin finite methods for two-dimensional regularized long wave and symmetric regularized long wave equation are studied. The discretization in space is by Galerkin finite element method and in time is based on linearized backward Euler formula and extrapolated Crank–Nicolson scheme. Existence and uniqueness of the numerical solutions have been shown by Brouwer fixed point theorem. The error estimates of linearlized Crank–Nicolson method for RLW and SRLW equations are also presented. Numerical experiments, including the error norms and conservation variables, verify the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed numerical schemes. 相似文献
