Die Werte der Franz-Reidemeister-Torsion bei torsionsberandenden Mannigfaltigkeiten.
The paper presents, mainly, two results: a new proof of the spectral properties of oscillatory matrices and a transversality theorem for diffeomorphisms of Rn with oscillatory jacobian at every point and such that NM(f(x) - f(y)) ≤ NM(x - y) for all elements x,y ∈ Rn, where NM(x) - 1 denotes the maximum number of sign changes in the components zi of z ∈ Rn, where all zi are non zero and z varies in a small neighborhood of x. An application to a semiimplicit discretization of the scalar heat equation...
We give a meaning to derivative of a function , where is a complete metric space. This enables us to investigate differential equations in a metric space. One can prove in particular Gronwall’s Lemma, Peano and Picard Existence Theorems, Lyapunov Theorem or Nagumo Theorem in metric spaces. The main idea is to define the tangent space of . Let , be continuous at zero. Then by the definition and are in the same equivalence class if they are tangent at zero, that is if By we denote...
