Co-elementary equivalence, co-elementary maps, and generalized arcs

By a generalized arc we mean a continuum with exactly two non-separating points; an arc is a metrizable generalized arc. It is well known that any two arcs are homeomorphic (to the real closed unit interval); we show that any two generalized arcs are co-elementarily equivalent, and that co-elementary images of generalized arcs are generalized arcs. We also show that if is a function between compacta and if is an arc, then is a co-elementary map if and only if is an arc and is a monotone continuous surjection.

     

Counterexample to a problem of Geoghegan-West

Let be a Banach space and its general linear group. Let denote the operator norm and ``' the pointwise convergence topology on . Is the identity map a homotopy equivalence? The answer is negative. One of the possible counterexamples is a well-known James space ---the ``space of counterexamples in Banach spaces theory'.

Classification of critical sets and their images for quadratic maps of the plane

We provide a complete classification of the critical sets and their images for quadratic maps of the real plane. Critical sets are always conic sections, which provides a starting point for the classification. The generic cases, maps whose critical sets are either ellipses or hyperbolas, was published by Delgado et al. in 2013. This work completes the classification by including all the nongeneric cases: the empty set, a single point, a single line, a parabola, two parallel lines, two intersecting lines, or the whole plane. We describe all possible images for each critical set case and illustrate the geometry of representative maps for each case.     

Smith equivalence of representations for finite perfect groups

Using smooth one-fixed-point actions on spheres and a result due to Bob Oliver on the tangent representations at fixed points for smooth group actions on disks, we obtain a similar result for perfect group actions on spheres. For a finite group , we compute a certain subgroup of the representation ring . This allows us to prove that a finite perfect group has a smooth -proper action on a sphere with isolated fixed points at which the tangent representations of are mutually nonisomorphic if and only if contains two or more real conjugacy classes of elements not of prime power order. Moreover, by reducing group theoretical computations to number theory, for an integer and primes , we prove similar results for the group , , or . In particular, has Smith equivalent representations that are not isomorphic if and only if , , .

     

An elementary notion of gauge equivalence

An elementary notion of gauge equivalence is introduced that does not require any Lagrangian or Hamiltonian apparatus. It is shown that in the special case of theories, such as general relativity, whose symmetries can be identified with spacetime diffeomorphisms this elementary notion has many of the same features as the usual notion. In particular, it performs well in the presence of asymptotic boundary conditions.     

当量比对预混燃烧影响的大涡模拟研究

本文对在突扩燃烧室内甲烷和空气的预混燃烧进行了大涡模拟(LES)研究,考虑预混燃料的当量比对燃烧室提供的动力及产生的污染物的影响．利用LES计算了不同当量比条件下燃烧室内湍流预混燃烧反应流场的温度、浓度、涡量和压力分布,最后对当量比0.5时B点和C点的温度和速度进行EMD分解,得到了温度场和速度场的各阶模态的平均周期．结果表明：随着当量比从0.5增加至0.7,燃烧反应趋于剧烈,燃烧室的最高温度提高了350K,平均压力从32.876 Pa增大到34.833Pa,燃烧产生的瞬态径向最高浓度从0.5%增加到0.95%．     

The Muhly–Renault–Williams Theorem for Lie Groupoids and its Classical Counterpart

A theorem of Muhly–Renault–Williams states that if two locally compact groupoids with Haar system are Morita equivalent, then their associated convolution C*-algebras are strongly Morita equivalent. We give a new proof of this theorem for Lie groupoids. Subsequently, we prove a counterpart of this theorem in Poisson geometry: If two Morita equivalent Lie groupoids are s-connected and s-simply connected, then their associated Poisson manifolds (viz. the dual bundles to their Lie algebroids) are Morita equivalent in the sense of P. Xu.     

Spin-Spin Interactions in Gauge Theory of Gravity, Violation of Weak Equivalence Principle and New Classical Test of General Relativity

For a long time, it has been generally believed that spin-spin interactions can only exist in a theory where Lorentz symmetry is gauged, and a theory with spin-spin interactions is not perturbatively renormalizable. But this is not true. By studying the motion of a spinning particle in gravitational field, it is found that there exist spin-spin interactions in gauge theory of gravity. Its mechanism is that a spinning particle will generate gravitomagnetic field in space-time, and this gravitomagnetic field will interact with the spin of another particle, which will cause spin-spin interactions. So, spin-spin interactions are transmitted by gravitational field. The form of spin-spin interactions in post Newtonian approximations is deduced. This result can also be deduced from the Papapetrou equation. This kind of interaction will not affect the renormalizability of the theory. The spin-spin interactions will violate the weak equivalence principle, and the violation effects are detectable. An experiment is proposed to detect the effects of the violation of the weak equivalence principle.
