Monge-Ampère equations and surfaces with negative Gaussian curvature

Mikio Tsuji (1997)

Banach Center Publications

In [24], we studied the singularities of solutions of Monge-Ampère equations of hyperbolic type. Then we saw that the singularities of solutions do not coincide with the singularities of solution surfaces. In this note we first study the singularities of solution surfaces. Next, as the applications, we consider the singularities of surfaces with negative Gaussian curvature. Our problems are as follows: 1) What kinds of singularities may appear?, and 2) How can we extend the surfaces beyond the singularities?...

Monodromy representations of braid groups and Yang-Baxter equations

Toshitake Kohno (1987)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Motivated by the two dimensional conformal field theory with gauge symmetry, we shall study the monodromy of the integrable connections associated with the simple Lie algebras. This gives a series of linear representations of the braid group whose explicit form is described by solutions of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation.

Morales-Ramis Theorems via Malgrange pseudogroup

Guy Casale (2009)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In this article we give an obstruction to integrability by quadratures of an ordinary differential equation on the differential Galois group of variational equations of any order along a particular solution. In Hamiltonian situation the condition on the Galois group gives Morales-Ramis-Simó theorem. The main tools used are Malgrange pseudogroup of a vector field and Artin approximation theorem.

More on deformed oscillator algebras and extended umbral calculus

Kwaśniewski, A. K., Grądzka, E. (2003)

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

This paper deals with ϕ ( q ) calculus which is an extension of finite operator calculus due to Rota, and leading results of Rota’s calculus are easily ϕ -extendable. The particular case ϕ n ( q ) = [ n q 1 ] - 1 is known to be relevant for quantum group investigations. It is shown here that such ϕ ( q ) umbral calculus leads to infinitely many new ϕ -deformed quantum like oscillator algebra representations. The authors point to several references dealing with new applications of q umbral and ϕ ( q ) calculus in which new families of ϕ ( q ) extensions...

Morse index and bifurcation of p-geodesics on semi Riemannian manifolds

Monica Musso, Jacobo Pejsachowicz, Alessandro Portaluri (2007)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Given a one-parameter family { g λ : λ [ a , b ] } of semi Riemannian metrics on an n-dimensional manifold M, a family of time-dependent potentials { V λ : λ [ a , b ] } and a family { σ λ : λ [ a , b ] } of trajectories connecting two points of the mechanical system defined by ( g λ , V λ ) , we show that there are trajectories bifurcating from the trivial branch σ λ if the generalized Morse indices μ ( σ a ) and μ ( σ b ) are different. If the data are analytic we obtain estimates for the number of bifurcation points on the branch and, in particular, for the number of strictly conjugate...
