Biharmonic Riemannian maps

Bayram Ṣahin (2011)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for Riemannian maps to be biharmonic. We also define pseudo-umbilical Riemannian maps as a generalization of pseudo-umbilical submanifolds and show that such Riemannian maps put some restrictions on the target manifolds.

Bi-Legendrian connections

Beniamino Cappelletti Montano (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We define the concept of a bi-Legendrian connection associated to a bi-Legendrian structure on an almost -manifold M 2 n + r . Among other things, we compute the torsion of this connection and prove that the curvature vanishes along the leaves of the bi-Legendrian structure. Moreover, we prove that if the bi-Legendrian connection is flat, then the bi-Legendrian structure is locally equivalent to the standard structure on 2 n + r .

BiLipschitz Decomposition of Lipschitz Maps between Carnot Groups

Sean Li (2015)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

Let f : G → H be a Lipschitz map between two Carnot groups. We show that if B is a ball of G, then there exists a subset Z ⊂ B, whose image in H under f has small Hausdorff content, such that BZcan be decomposed into a controlled number of pieces, the restriction of f on each of which is quantitatively biLipschitz. This extends a result of [14], which proved the same result, but with the restriction that G has an appropriate discretization. We provide an example of a Carnot group not admitting such...

Bilipschitz invariance of the first transverse characteristic map

Michel Hilsum (2012)

Banach Center Publications

Given a smooth S¹-foliated bundle, A. Connes has shown the existence of an additive morphism ϕ from the K-theory group of the foliation C*-algebra to the scalar field, which factorizes, via the assembly map, the Godbillon-Vey class, which is the first secondary characteristic class, of the classifying space. We prove the invariance of this map under a bilipschitz homeomorphism, extending a previous result for maps of class C¹ by H. Natsume.

Binary operations in classical and quantum mechanics

Janusz Grabowski, Giuseppe Marmo (2003)

Banach Center Publications

Binary operations on algebras of observables are studied in the quantum as well as in the classical case. It is shown that certain natural compatibility conditions with the associative product imply properties which are usually additionally required.
