Holonomy groups of flat manifolds with the $R_{\infty}$ property

Rafał Lutowski, Andrzej Szczepański (2013)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let M be a flat manifold. We say that M has the $R_{\infty}$ property if the Reidemeister number R(f) is infinite for every homeomorphism f: M → M. We investigate relations between the holonomy representation ρ of M and the $R_{\infty}$ property. When the holonomy group of M is solvable we show that if ρ has a unique ℝ-irreducible subrepresentation of odd degree then M has the $R_{\infty}$ property. This result is related to Conjecture 4.8 in [K. Dekimpe et al., Topol. Methods Nonlinear Anal. 34 (2009)].

On a number theoretic conjecture on positive integral points in a 5-dimensional tetrahedron and a sharp estimate of the Dickman–De Bruijn function

Ke-Pao Lin, Xue Luo, Stephen S.-T. Yau, Huaiqing Zuo (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

It is well known that getting the estimate of integral points in right-angled simplices is equivalent to getting the estimate of Dickman-De Bruijn function $ψ (x, y)$ which is the number of positive integers $\leq x$ and free of prime factors $> y$ . Motivating from the Yau Geometry Conjecture, the third author formulated the Number Theoretic Conjecture which gives a sharp polynomial upper estimate that counts the number of positive integral points in n-dimensional ( $n \geq 3$ ) real right-angled simplices. In this...

On coarse embeddability into $ℓ_{p}$ -spaces and a conjecture of Dranishnikov

Piotr W. Nowak (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that the Hilbert space is coarsely embeddable into any $ℓ_{p}$ for 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞. It follows that coarse embeddability into ℓ₂ and into $ℓ_{p}$ are equivalent for 1 ≤ p < 2.

Characterization of the alternating groups by their order and one conjugacy class length

Alireza Khalili Asboei, Reza Mohammadyari (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $N (G)$ be the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$ . By Thompson’s conjecture, if $L$ is a finite non-abelian simple group, $G$ is a finite group with a trivial center, and $N (G) = N (L)$ , then $L$ and $G$ are isomorphic. Recently, Chen et al. contributed interestingly to Thompson’s conjecture under a weak condition. They only used the group order and one or two special conjugacy class sizes of simple groups and characterized successfully sporadic simple groups (see Li’s PhD dissertation)....

Exotic Deformations of Calabi-Yau Manifolds

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We introduce Quantum Inner State manifolds (QIS manifolds) as (compact) $2 n$ -dimensional symplectic manifolds $(M, κ)$ endowed with a $κ$ -tamed almost complex structure $J$ and with a nowhere vanishing and normalized section $ϵ$ of the bundle $Λ_{J}^{n, 0} (M)$ satisfying the condition ${\bar{\partial}}_{J} ϵ = 0$ . We study the moduli space $𝔐$ of QIS deformations of a given Calabi-Yau manifold, computing its tangent space...

Witten's Conjecture for many four-manifolds of simple type

Paul M. N. Feehan, Thomas G. Leness (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove that Witten’s Conjecture [40] on the relationship between the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten series for a four-manifold of Seiberg-Witten simple type with $b_{1} = 0$ and odd $b_{2}^{+} \geq 3$ follows from our $(3)$ -monopole cobordism formula [6] when the four-manifold has $c_{1}^{2} \geq χ_{h} - 3$ or is abundant.

The generalized Hodge and Bloch conjectures are equivalent for general complete intersections

Claire Voisin (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We prove that Bloch’s conjecture is true for surfaces with $p_{g} = 0$ obtained as $0$ -sets $X_{σ}$ of a section $σ$ of a very ample vector bundle on a variety $X$ with “trivial” Chow groups. We get a similar result in presence of a finite group action, showing that if a projector of the group acts as $0$ on holomorphic $2$ -forms of $X_{σ}$ , then it acts as $0$ on $0$ -cycles of degree $0$ of $X_{σ}$ . In higher dimension, we also prove a similar but conditional result showing that the generalized Hodge conjecture for general $X_{σ}$ ...

On the Davenport constant and group algebras

Daniel Smertnig (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a finite abelian group G and a splitting field K of G, let (G,K) denote the largest integer l ∈ ℕ for which there is a sequence $S = g ₁ \cdot . . . \cdot g_{l}$ over G such that $(X^{g ₁} - a ₁) \cdot . . . \cdot (X^{g_{l}} - a_{l}) \neq 0 \in K [G]$ for all $a ₁, . . ., a_{l} \in K^{\times}$ . If (G) denotes the Davenport constant of G, then there is the straightforward inequality (G) - 1 ≤ (G,K). Equality holds for a variety of groups, and a conjecture of W. Gao et al. states that equality holds for all groups. We offer further groups for which equality holds, but we also give the first examples of groups G for...

On the Brocard-Ramanujan problem and generalizations

Andrzej Dąbrowski (2012)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let $p_{i}$ denote the ith prime. We conjecture that there are precisely 28 solutions to the equation $n ² - 1 = p ₁^{α ₁} \dots p_{k}^{α_{k}}$ in positive integers n and α₁,..., $α_{k}$ . This conjecture implies an explicit description of the set of solutions to the Brocard-Ramanujan equation. We also propose another variant of the Brocard-Ramanujan problem: describe the set of solutions in non-negative integers of the equation n! + A = x₁²+x₂²+x₃² (A fixed).

On a conjecture of Dekking : The sum of digits of even numbers

Iurie Boreico, Daniel El-Baz, Thomas Stoll (2014)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let $q \geq 2$ and denote by $s_{q}$ the sum-of-digits function in base $q$ . For $j = 0, 1, \dots, q - 1$ consider $# {0 \leq n < N : s_{q} (2 n) \equiv j (mod q)} .$ In 1983, F. M. Dekking conjectured that this quantity is greater than $N / q$ and, respectively, less than $N / q$ for infinitely many $N$ , thereby claiming an absence of a drift (or Newman) phenomenon. In this paper we prove his conjecture.

Recent progress on the Jacobian Conjecture

Michiel de Bondt, Arno van den Essen (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We describe some recent developments concerning the Jacobian Conjecture (JC). First we describe Drużkowski’s result in [6] which asserts that it suffices to study the JC for Drużkowski mappings of the form $x + {(A x)}^{* 3}$ with A² = 0. Then we describe the authors’ result of [2] which asserts that it suffices to study the JC for so-called gradient mappings, i.e. mappings of the form x - ∇f, with $f \in k^{[n]}$ homogeneous of degree 4. Using this result we explain Zhao’s reformulation of the JC which asserts the...

Foliated structure of the Kuranishi space and isomorphisms of deformation families of compact complex manifolds

Laurent Meersseman (2011)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

Consider the following uniformization problem. Take two holomorphic (parametrized by some analytic set defined on a neighborhood of $0$ in $ℂ^{p}$ , for some $p > 0$ ) or differentiable (parametrized by an open neighborhood of $0$ in $ℝ^{p}$ , for some $p > 0$ ) deformation families of compact complex manifolds. Assume they are pointwise isomorphic, that is for each point $t$ of the parameter space, the fiber over $t$ of the first family is biholomorphic to the fiber over $t$ of the second family. Then, under which conditions...

Invariance of the parity conjecture for $p$ -Selmer groups of elliptic curves in a $D_{2 p^{n}}$ -extension

Thomas de La Rochefoucauld (2011)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We show a $p$ -parity result in a $D_{2 p^{n}}$ -extension of number fields $L / K$ ( $p \geq 5$ ) for the twist $1 \oplus η \oplus τ$ : $W (E / K, 1 \oplus η \oplus τ) = {(- 1)}^{〈1 \oplus η \oplus τ, X_{p} (E / L)〉}$ , where $E$ is an elliptic curve over $K$ , $η$ and $τ$ are respectively the quadratic character and an irreductible representation of degree $2$ of $Gal (L / K) = D_{2 p^{n}}$ , and $X_{p} (E / L)$ is the $p$ -Selmer group. The main novelty is that we use a congruence result between $ε_{0}$ -factors (due to Deligne) for the determination of local root numbers in bad cases (places of additive reduction above 2 and 3). We also give applications to the $p$ -parity conjecture...

$Z ₂^{k}$ -actions with a special fixed point set

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let Fⁿ be a connected, smooth and closed n-dimensional manifold satisfying the following property: if $N^{m}$ is any smooth and closed m-dimensional manifold with m > n and $T : N^{m} \to N^{m}$ is a smooth involution whose fixed point set is Fⁿ, then m = 2n. We describe the equivariant cobordism classification of smooth actions $(M^{m}; Φ)$ of the group $G = Z ₂^{k}$ on closed smooth m-dimensional manifolds $M^{m}$ for which the fixed point set of the action is a submanifold Fⁿ with the above property. This generalizes a result of F....

The natural operators $T_{| ℳ f ₙ} ⇝ T * T^{r }$ and $T_{| ℳ f ₙ} ⇝ Λ ² T T^{r *}$

Similarity:

Let r and n be natural numbers. For n ≥ 2 all natural operators $T_{| ℳ f ₙ} ⇝ T * T^{r *}$ transforming vector fields on n-manifolds M to 1-forms on $T^{r *} M = J^{r} (M, ℝ) ₀$ are classified. For n ≥ 3 all natural operators $T_{| ℳ f ₙ} ⇝ Λ ² T * T^{r *}$ transforming vector fields on n-manifolds M to 2-forms on $T^{r *} M$ are completely described.

Strong density for higher order Sobolev spaces into compact manifolds

Pierre Bousquet, Augusto C. Ponce, Jean Van Schaftingen (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Given a compact manifold $N^{n}$ , an integer $k \in ℕ_{*}$ and an exponent $1 \leq p < \infty$ , we prove that the class $C^{\infty} ({\bar{Q}}^{m}; N^{n})$ of smooth maps on the cube with values into $N^{n}$ is dense with respect to the strong topology in the Sobolev space $W^{k, p} (Q^{m}; N^{n})$ when the homotopy group $π_{⌊ k p ⌋} (N^{n})$ of order $⌊ k p ⌋$ is trivial. We also prove density of maps that are smooth except for a set of dimension $m - ⌊ k p ⌋ - 1$ , without any restriction on the homotopy group of $N^{n}$ .

The object of the present paper is to study $η$ -Ricci solitons on $η$ -Einstein ${(L C S)}_{n}$ -manifolds. It is shown that if $ξ$ is a recurrent torse forming $η$ -Ricci soliton on an $η$ -Einstein ${(L C S)}_{n}$ -manifold then $ξ$ is (i) concurrent and (ii) Killing vector field.

On the principle of real moduli flexibility: perfect parametrizations

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let V be a real algebraic manifold of positive dimension. The aim of this paper is to show that, for every integer b (arbitrarily large), there exists a trivial Nash family $= {V_{y}}_{y \in R^{b}}$ of real algebraic manifolds such that V₀ = V, is an algebraic family of real algebraic manifolds over $y \in R^{b} ∖ 0$ (possibly singular over y = 0) and is perfectly parametrized by $R^{b}$ in the sense that $V_{y}$ is birationally nonisomorphic to $V_{z}$ for every $y, z \in R^{b}$ with y ≠ z. A similar result continues to hold if V is a singular real algebraic...

Sotto determinate condizioni per l'anello di base $\Lambda$ oppure per i moduli considerati, le equivalenze $i$ -omotopiche deboli coincidono con le equivalenze $i$ -omotopiche (forti).

A basis of ℤₘ, II

Min Tang, Yong-Gao Chen (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a set A ⊂ ℕ let $σ_{A} (n)$ denote the number of ordered pairs (a,a’) ∈ A × A such that a + a’ = n. Erdős and Turán conjectured that for any asymptotic basis A of ℕ, $σ_{A} (n)$ is unbounded. We show that the analogue of the Erdős-Turán conjecture does not hold in the abelian group (ℤₘ,+), namely, for any natural number m, there exists a set A ⊆ ℤₘ such that A + A = ℤₘ and $σ_{A} (n ̅) \leq 5120$ for all n̅ ∈ ℤₘ.

Complex structures on product of circle bundles over complex manifolds

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let ${\bar{L}}_{i} \to X_{i}$ be a holomorphic line bundle over a compact complex manifold for $i = 1, 2$ . Let $S_{i}$ denote the associated principal circle-bundle with respect to some hermitian inner product on ${\bar{L}}_{i}$ . We construct complex structures on $S = S_{1} \times S_{2}$ which we refer to as scalar, diagonal, and linear types. While scalar type structures always exist, the more general diagonal but non-scalar type structures are constructed assuming that ${\bar{L}}_{i}$ are equivariant ${(ℂ^{*})}^{n_{i}}$ -bundles satisfying some additional conditions....
