Racah operators for the group of motions

The author [5] introduced Racah operators for unitary representations of topological groups of type I. In the present paper, we indicate the explicit form of these operators for representations of the group of motions of three-dimensional Euclidean space.     

Integral models of representations of current groups

We suggest a new construction of nonlocal representations of the current group. Instead of the Fock space, which is usually used in this situation, we consider the direct integral of countable tensor products of representations over the trajectories of some stochastic process. The construction substantially uses the invariance of the so-called infinite-dimensional Lebesgue measure.     

A contribution to the global formulation of the higher-order Poincaré-Cartan form

The global formulation of the higher-order Poincaré-Cartan form for Lagrangian field theories in the calculus of variations is re-examined in terms of the theory of lifts of tensor fields on a manifold to its higher-order prolongated jet bundles.Partially supported by CNPq, Brazil, Proc. MA 30.1115/79.     

Curvature integrals under the Ricci flow on surfaces

In this paper, we consider the behavior of the total absolute and the total curvature under the Ricci flow on complete surfaces with bounded curvature. It is shown that they are monotone non-increasing and constant in time, respectively, if they exist and are finite at the initial time. As a related result, we prove that the asymptotic volume ratio is constant under the Ricci flow with non-negative Ricci curvature, at the end of the paper.      

Classification of hypersurfaces with constant Laguerre eigenvalues in R~n

Let x:M → Rn be an umbilical free hypersurface with non-zero principal curvatures.Then x is associated with a Laguerre metric g,a Laguerre tensor L,a Laguerre form C,and a Laguerre second fundamental form B,which are invariants of x under Laguerre transformation group.An eigenvalue of Laguerre tensor L of x is called a Laguerre eigenvalue of x.In this paper,we classify all oriented hypersurfaces with constant Laguerre eigenvalues and vanishing Laguerre form.     

An intrinsic approach to Lichnerowicz conjecture

In this paper we give a proof of Lichnerowicz conjecture for compact simply connected manifolds which is intrinsic in the sense that it avoids thenice embeddings into eigenspaces of the Laplacian. Even if one wants to use these embeddings, this paper gives a more streamlined proof. As a byproduct, we get a simple criterion for a polynomial to be a Jacobi polynomial.     

关于拟Einstein场方程

In this paper some properties of a symmetric tensor field T(X, Y) = g(A(X), Y) on a Riemannian manifold (M,g) without boundary which satisfies the quasi-Einstein equation Rij-S/2gij=Tij+bξiξj are given. The necessary and sufficient conditions for this tensor to satisfy the quasi-Einstein equation are also obtained.     

Second-Order Covariant Tensor Decomposition in Curved Spacetime

Local four-dimensional tensor decomposition formulae for generic vectors and 2-tensors in spacetime, in terms of scalar and antisymmetric covariant tensor potentials, are studied within the framework of tensor distributions. Earlier first-order decompositions are extended to include the case of four-dimensional symmetric 2-tensors and new second-order decompositions are introduced.     

Universal Extension and Excision for Topological Algebras

We construct a topology on the tensor algebra that makes the multiplication jointly continuous and is universal for algebras with jointly continuous multiplication. This result, together with the methods developed by Cuntz for m-algebras are used to prove the excision theorem of Cuntz and Quillen in the more general case of c-algebras.
