On the γ -equivalence of semiholonomic jets

Miroslav Doupovec, Ivan Kolář (2019)

Archivum Mathematicum

It is well known that the concept of holonomic r -jet can be geometrically characterized in terms of the contact of individual curves. However, this is not true for the semiholonomic r -jets, [5], [8]. In the present paper, we discuss systematically the semiholonomic case.

On third order semiholonomic prolongation of a connection

Petr Vašík (2011)

Banach Center Publications

We recall several different definitions of semiholonomic jet prolongations of a fibered manifold and use them to derive some interesting properties of prolongation of a first order connection to a third order semiholonomic connection.

On topological degree and Poincaré duality

Franco Cardin (1995)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

In this Note we investigate about some relations between Poincaré dual and other topological objects, such as intersection index, topological degree, and Maslov index of Lagrangian submanifolds. A simple proof of the Poincaré-Hopf theorem is recalled. The Lagrangian submanifolds are the geometrical, multi-valued, solutions of physical problems of evolution governed by Hamilton-Jacobi equations: the computation of the algebraic number of the branches is showed to be performed by using Poincaré dual....

On two problems studied by A. Ambrosetti

David Arcoya, José Carmona (2006)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We study the Ambrosetti–Prodi and Ambrosetti–Rabinowitz problems.We prove for the first one the existence of a continuum of solutions with shape of a reflected C ( -shape). Next, we show that there is a relationship between these two problems.

On types of non-integrable geometrie

Friedrich, Thomas (2003)

Proceedings of the 22nd Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

A G-structure on a Riemannian manifold is said to be integrable if it is preserved by the Levi-Civita connection. In the presented paper, the following non-integrable G-structures are studied: SO(3)-structures in dimension 5; almost complex structures in dimension 6; G 2 -structures in dimension 7; Spin(7)-structures in dimension 8; Spin(9)-structures in dimension 16 and F 4 -structures in dimension 26. G-structures admitting an affine connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion are characterized....

On vanishing inflection points of plane curves

Mauricio Garay (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We study the local behaviour of inflection points of families of plane curves in the projective plane. We develop normal forms and versal deformation concepts for holomorphic function germs f : ( 2 , 0 ) ( , 0 ) which take into account the inflection points of the fibres of f . We give a classification of such function- germs which is a projective analog of Arnold’s A,D,E classification. We compute the versal deformation with respect to inflections of Morse function-germs.

On variational impulsive boundary value problems

Marek Galewski (2012)

Open Mathematics

Using the variational approach, we investigate the existence of solutions and their dependence on functional parameters for classical solutions to the second order impulsive boundary value Dirichlet problems with L1 right hand side.
