Strengthened Moser’s conjecture, geometry of Grunsky coefficients and Fredholm eigenvalues

Samuel Krushkal (2007)

Open Mathematics

The Grunsky and Teichmüller norms ϰ(f) and k(f) of a holomorphic univalent function f in a finitely connected domain D ∋ ∞ with quasiconformal extension to ^ are related by ϰ(f) ≤ k(f). In 1985, Jürgen Moser conjectured that any univalent function in the disk Δ* = z: |z| > 1 can be approximated locally uniformly by functions with ϰ(f) < k(f). This conjecture has been recently proved by R. Kühnau and the author. In this paper, we prove that approximation is possible in a stronger sense, namely,...

Structurally stable configurations of lines of mean curvature and umbilic points on surfaces immersed in R3.

Ronaldo García, Jorge Sotomayor (2001)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

In this paper we study the pairs of orthogonal foliations on oriented surfaces immersed in R3 whose singularities and leaves are, respectively, the umbilic points and the lines of normal mean curvature of the immersion. Along these lines the immersions bend in R3 according to their normal mean curvature. By analogy with the closely related Principal Curvature Configurations studied in [S-G], [GS2], whose lines produce the extremal normal curvature for the immersion, the pair of foliations by lines...

Structure of the kernel of higher spin Dirac operators

Martin Plechšmíd (2001)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Polynomials on n with values in an irreducible Spin n -module form a natural representation space for the group Spin n . These representations are completely reducible. In the paper, we give a complete description of their decompositions into irreducible components for polynomials with values in a certain range of irreducible modules. The results are used to describe the structure of kernels of conformally invariant elliptic first order systems acting on maps on n with values in these modules.
