Discrete groups actions and corresponding modules

We address the problem of interrelations between the properties of an action of a discrete group on a compact Hausdorff space and the algebraic and analytical properties of the module of all continuous functions over the algebra of invariant continuous functions . The present paper is a continuation of our joint paper with M. Frank and V. Manuilov. Here we prove some statements inverse to the ones obtained in that paper: we deduce properties of actions from properties of modules. In particular, it is proved that if for a uniformly continuous action the module is finitely generated projective over , then the cardinality of orbits of the action is finite and fixed. Sufficient conditions for existence of natural conditional expectations are obtained.

     

Boundary G/G Theory and Topological Poisson–Lie Sigma Model

We study a boundary version of the gauged WZW model with a Poisson–Lie group G as the target. The Poisson–Lie structure of G is used to define the Wess–Zumino term of the action on surfaces with boundary. We clarify the relation of the model to the topological Poisson sigma model with the dual Poisson–Lie group G ^* as the target and show that the phase space of the theory on a strip is essentially the Heisenberg double of G introduced by Semenov–Tian–Shansky.     

Infrared Observation of the Effects of Aqueous Oxidizing Agents on the Functional Groups on Carbon Surfaces

FTIR photothermal beam deflection spectroscopy (PBDS) was used to record infrared spectra of medium-temperature carbons before and after they had been subjected to treatments with aqueous HNO₃ or H₂O₂ solution. Changes in the functional groups present on the carbon surfaces can be clearly observed.     

On the rigidity of sphericalt-designs that are orbits of finite reflection groups

The concept of rigid sphericalt-designs was introduced by Bannai. He conjectured that there is a functionf(t, d) such that ifX is a sphericalt design in thed-dimensional Euclidean space so that |X|>f(t, d), theX is non-rigid. Furthermore, he asked to find examples of rigid but not tight sperical designs. In the present article we shall investigate the case whenX is an orbit of a finite reflection group and prove thatX is rigid iff tight for the groupsA _n ,B _n ,C _n ,D _n ,E ₆,E ₇,F ₄,I ₃.Research was partially supported by Hungarian National Research fund Grant No. 4267.     

Non-Cayley Vertex-Transitive Graphs of Order Twice the Product of Two Odd Primes

For a positive integer n, does there exist a vertex-transitive graph Γ on n vertices which is not a Cayley graph, or, equivalently, a graph Γ on n vertices such that Aut Γ is transitive on vertices but none of its subgroups are regular on vertices? Previous work (by Alspach and Parsons, Frucht, Graver and Watkins, Marusic and Scapellato, and McKay and the second author) has produced answers to this question if n is prime, or divisible by the square of some prime, or if n is the product of two distinct primes. In this paper we consider the simplest unresolved case for even integers, namely for integers of the form n = 2pq, where 2 < q < p, and p and q are primes. We give a new construction of an infinite family of vertex-transitive graphs on 2pq vertices which are not Cayley graphs in the case where p ≡ 1 (mod q). Further, if p ? 1 (mod q), p ≡ q ≡ 3(mod 4), and if every vertex-transitive graph of order pq is a Cayley graph, then it is shown that, either 2pq = 66, or every vertex-transitive graph of order 2pq admitting a transitive imprimitive group of automorphisms is a Cayley graph.     

关于自同构作用下的不变元

文章主要讨论了代数（环）、（双）Ｈｏｐｆ代数中自同构作用下不变元素的性质，得到一些新的结果：设Ａ是有限维半单代数，则ＡｕｔＡ作用下的不变元属于中心，并且举出反例说明这个性质不能一般化到有限维代数、有限维半单（双）Ｈｏｐｆ代数．

Experimental and numerical study of the propagation of focused wave groups in the nearshore zone

The propagation of focused wave groups in intermediate water depth and the shoaling zone is experimentally and numerically considered in this paper. The experiments are carried out in a two-dimensional wave flume and wave trains derived from Pierson-Moskowitz and JONSWAP spectrum are generated. The peak frequency does not change during the wave train propagation for Pierson-Moskowitz waves; however, a downshift of this peak is observed for JONSWAP waves. An energy partitioning is performed in order to track the spatial evolution of energy. Four energy regions are defined for each spectrum type. A nonlinear energy transfer between different spectral regions as the wave train propagates is demonstrated and quantified. Numerical simulations are conducted using a modified Boussinesq model for long waves in shallow waters of varying depth. Experimental results are in satisfactory agreement with numerical predictions, especially in the case of wave trains derived from JONSWAP spectrum.     

The free loop space and the algebraic k-theory of spaces

Let A(X) be the space defined by Waldhausen whose homotopy groups define the algebraic K-groups of the space X and let . Here (X) denotes the free loop space of X and Q denotes the functor . For X = Y, the suspension of a connected space Y, we shall prove that the homotopy fibers Ã(X), B(X) of the maps A(X) A (point), B(X) B (point) are equivalent as infinite loop spaces.
