The covering semigroup of invariant control systems on Lie groups

Víctor Ayala, Eyüp Kizil (2016)

Kybernetika

It is well known that the class of invariant control systems is really relevant both from theoretical and practical point of view. This work was an attempt to connect an invariant systems on a Lie group G with its covering space. Furthermore, to obtain algebraic properties of this set. Let G be a Lie group with identity e and Σ 𝔤 a cone in the Lie algebra 𝔤 of G that satisfies the Lie algebra rank condition. We use a formalism developed by Sussmann, to obtain an algebraic structure on the covering...

The Dehn functions of O u t ( F n ) and A u t ( F n )

Martin R. Bridson, Karen Vogtmann (2012)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

For n at least 3, the Dehn functions of O u t ( F n ) and A u t ( F n ) are exponential. Hatcher and Vogtmann proved that they are at most exponential, and the complementary lower bound in the case n = 3 was established by Bridson and Vogtmann. Handel and Mosher completed the proof by reducing the lower bound for n bigger than 3 to the case n = 3 . In this note we give a shorter, more direct proof of this last reduction.

The determinant of oriented rotants

Adam H. Piwocki (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We study the determinant of pairs of rotants of Anstee, Przytycki and Rolfsen. We consider various notions of rotant orientations.
