Applications depuis K ( / p , 2 ) et une conjecture de N. Kuhn

Gérald Gaudens, Lionel Schwartz (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Dans cet article on démontre une conjecture de N. Kuhn : si la cohomologie singulière modulo un nombre premier p d’un espace est finiment engendrée comme module sur l’algèbre de Steenrod, alors elle est finie. On donne aussi des formes plus fortes de ce résultat. Le second auteur en avait déjà donné une démonstration dans un article précédent. Cependant dans le cas d’un nombre premier impair la preuve comportait une lacune sans hypothèse supplémentaire sur la cohomologie de l’espace, du type de...

Applications of knot theory in fluid mechanics

Renzo Ricca (1998)

Banach Center Publications

In this paper we present an overview of some recent results on applications of knot theory in fluid mechanics, as part of a new discipline called `topological fluid mechanics' (TFM). The choice of the topics covered here is deliberately restricted to those areas that involve mainly a combination of ideal fluid mechanics techniques and knot theory concepts, complemented with a brief description of some other concepts that have important applications in fluid systems. We begin with the concept of...

Applications of Nielsen theory to dynamics

Boju Jiang (1999)

Banach Center Publications

In this talk, we shall look at the application of Nielsen theory to certain questions concerning the "homotopy minimum" or "homotopy stability" of periodic orbits under deformations of the dynamical system. These applications are mainly to the dynamics of surface homeomorphisms, where the geometry and algebra involved are both accessible.
