Isotopic families of contact manifolds for elliptic PDE

A test for a function to be a solution of an elliptic PDE is given in terms of extensions, as solutions, from the boundaries inside the domains belonging to an isotopic family. It generalizes a result of Ehrenpreis for spheres moved along a straight line.

     

On a poisson reduction for Gel'fand-Zakharevich manifolds

We formulate and discuss a reduction theorem for Poisson pencils associated with a class of integrable systems, defined on bi-Hamiltonian manifolds, recently studied by Gel'fand and Zakharevich. The reduction procedure is suggested by the bi-Hamiltonian approach to the separation of variables problem.     

The pure state space of quantum mechanics as Hermitian symmetric space

The pure state space of Quantum Mechanics is investigated as Hermitian Symmetric Kähler manifold. The classical principles of quantum mechanics (Quantum Superposition Principle, Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, Quantum Probability Principle) and Spectral Theory of observables are discussed in this non-linear geometrical context.     

基于椭圆型方程的扭叶片造型方法的研究

本文以偏微分方程造型为基础,提出了一种基于椭圆型方程的扭叶片三维型面直接设计方法,详细推导了叶型曲面函数,给出了型面方程的求解及其前后缘修正。该方法具有设计叶型曲面自然光顺,设计参数少且各参数具有明显的几何意义,叶型曲面调整方便,利于采用非数值优化算法对其进行气动优化等优点。文中给出了设计实例,并通过数值实验分析了所设计叶片型面的流动特性。分析结果表明设计叶片具有良好的气动性能,同时也证明了本文提出的基于椭圆型方程的扭叶片三维型面设计方法的可靠性和实用性。     

On the application of slip boundary condition on curved boundaries

Hydrodynamic simulations of sloshing phenomena often involve the application of slip boundary condition at the wetted surfaces. If these surfaces are curved, the ambiguous nature of the normal vector in the discretized problem can interfere with the application of such a boundary condition. Even the use of consistent normal vectors, preferred from the point of view of conservation, does not assure good approximation of the continuum slip condition in the discrete problem, and non‐physical recirculating flow fields may be observed. As a remedy, we consider the Navier slip condition, and more successfully, the so‐called BC‐free boundary condition. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Laguerre approximation of stable manifolds with application to connecting orbits

We present an algorithm, based on approximation by Laguerre polynomials, for computing a point on the stable manifold of a stationary solution of an autonomous system. A superconvergence phenomenon means that the accuracy of our results is much higher than the usual spectral accuracy. Both the theory and the implementation of the method are considered. Finally, as an application of the algorithm, we describe a fully spectral approximation of homo- and heteroclinic orbits.

     

Carnot-Caratheodory空间中的变换论

Klein发表著名的埃尔兰根纲领,由群论角度研究了空间变换群的不变量,从而引进了各种不同的几何学．本文利用Felix Klein的观念,研究Carnot-Caratheodory空间{M,Q,g}(又称为次黎曼流形)上的类似问题,给出了次黎曼流形中的共形不变量和射影不变量．本文给出的共形和射影不变量可视为黎曼情形的一种自然推广．由于次黎曼流形与黎曼流形之间有着本质的差异,故此,本文通过次黎曼流形上存在的唯一非完整联络(Nonholonomic connections)来刻画所提的问题．     

A Penrose-like inequality for maximal asymptotically flat spin initial data sets

We prove a Penrose-like inequality for the mass of a large class of constant mean curvature (CMC) asymptotically flat n-dimensional spin manifolds which satisfy the dominant energy condition and have a future converging, or past converging compact and connected boundary of non-positive mean curvature and of positive Yamabe invariant. We prove that for every n ≥ 3 the mass is bounded from below by an expression involving the norm of the linear momentum, the volume of the boundary, dimensionless geometric constants and some normalized Sobolev ratio.
