Ultrafilter-limit points in metric dynamical systems

Salvador García-Ferreira, Manuel Sanchis (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

Given a free ultrafilter p on and a space X , we say that x X is the p -limit point of a sequence ( x n ) n in X (in symbols, x = p - lim n x n ) if for every neighborhood V of x , { n : x n V } p . By using p -limit points from a suitable metric space, we characterize the selective ultrafilters on and the P -points of * = β ( ) . In this paper, we only consider dynamical systems ( X , f ) , where X is a compact metric space. For a free ultrafilter p on * , the function f p : X X is defined by f p ( x ) = p - lim n f n ( x ) for each x X . These functions are not continuous in general....

Calculation of the magnetic field due to a bioelectric current dipole in an ellipsoid

Andrei Irimia (2008)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The bioelectric current dipole model is important both theoretically and computationally in the study of electrical activity in the brain and stomach due to the resemblance of the shape of these two organs to an ellipsoid. To calculate the magnetic field 𝐁 due to a dipole in an ellipsoid, one must evaluate truncated series expansions involving ellipsoidal harmonics 𝔼 n m , which are products of Lamé functions. In this article, we extend a strictly analytic model (G. Dassios and F. Kariotou,...

Progress towards a local expression for radiation reaction

Rachel Capon (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We report on progress towards finding a local expression for radiation reaction for a particle orbiting a Kerr black hole. The Dirac-Gal'tsov approach is described. For the case of a scalar particle in a circular orbit of a Schwarzschild black hole, an explicit calculation is done via this method and shown to be in agreement with overall energy conservation. A possible approach to the case of more general orbits is also discussed.
