Harmonic metrics and connections with irregular singularities

Claude Sabbah (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We identify the holomorphic de Rham complex of the minimal extension of a meromorphic vector bundle with connexion on a compact Riemann surface X with the L 2 complex relative to a suitable metric on the bundle and a complete metric on the punctured Riemann surface. Applying results of C. Simpson, we show the existence of a harmonic metric on this vector bundle, giving the same L 2 complex.

Hematologic Disorders and Bone Marrow–Peripheral Blood Dynamics

E. Afenya, S. Mundle (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Hematologic disorders such as the myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are discussed. The lingering controversies related to various diseases are highlighted. A simple biomathematical model of bone marrow - peripheral blood dynamics in the normal state is proposed and used to investigate cell behavior in normal hematopoiesis from a mathematical viewpoint. Analysis of the steady state and properties of the model are used to make postulations about the...

High Frequency limit of the Helmholtz Equations

Jean-David Benamou, François Castella, Thodoros Katsaounis, Benoît Perthame (1999/2000)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

We derive the high frequency limit of the Helmholtz equations in terms of quadratic observables. We prove that it can be written as a stationary Liouville equation with source terms. Our method is based on the Wigner Transform, which is a classical tool for evolution dispersive equations. We extend its use to the stationary case after an appropriate scaling of the Helmholtz equation. Several specific difficulties arise here; first, the identification of the source term (which does not share the...

Homogeneous variational problems: a minicourse

David J. Saunders (2011)

Communications in Mathematics

A Finsler geometry may be understood as a homogeneous variational problem, where the Finsler function is the Lagrangian. The extremals in Finsler geometry are curves, but in more general variational problems we might consider extremal submanifolds of dimension m . In this minicourse we discuss these problems from a geometric point of view.

How many are affine connections with torsion

Zdeněk Dušek, Oldřich Kowalski (2014)

Archivum Mathematicum

The question how many real analytic affine connections exist locally on a smooth manifold M of dimension n is studied. The families of general affine connections with torsion and with skew-symmetric Ricci tensor, or symmetric Ricci tensor, respectively, are described in terms of the number of arbitrary functions of n variables.
