The geometry of the space of Cauchy data of nonlinear PDEs

Giovanni Moreno (2013)

Open Mathematics

First-order jet bundles can be put at the foundations of the modern geometric approach to nonlinear PDEs, since higher-order jet bundles can be seen as constrained iterated jet bundles. The definition of first-order jet bundles can be given in many equivalent ways - for instance, by means of Grassmann bundles. In this paper we generalize it by means of flag bundles, and develop the corresponding theory for higher-oder and infinite-order jet bundles. We show that this is a natural geometric framework...

The geometry of the third moment of exponential sums

Florent Jouve (2008)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

We give a geometric interpretation (and we deduce an explicit formula) for two types of exponential sums, one of which is the third moment of Kloosterman sums over F q of type K ( ν 2 ; q ) . We establish a connection between the sums considered and the number of F q -rational points on explicit smooth projective surfaces, one of which is a K 3 surface, whereas the other is a smooth cubic surface. As a consequence, we obtain, applying Grothendieck-Lefschetz theory, a generalized formula for the third moment of Kloosterman...

The groups of points on abelian varieties over finite fields

Sergey Rybakov (2010)

Open Mathematics

Let A be an abelian variety with commutative endomorphism algebra over a finite field k. The k-isogeny class of A is uniquely determined by a Weil polynomial f A without multiple roots. We give a classification of the groups of k-rational points on varieties from this class in terms of Newton polygons of f A(1 − t).

The growth of regular functions on algebraic sets

A. Strzeboński (1991)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We are concerned with the set of all growth exponents of regular functions on an algebraic subset V of n . We show that its elements form an increasing sequence of rational numbers and we study the dependence of its structure on the geometric properties of V.
