Pontryagin algebra of a transitive Lie algebroid

Kubarski, Jan (1990)

Proceedings of the Winter School "Geometry and Physics"

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0699.00032.] It was previously known that for every principal fibre bundle P there is some corresponding transitive Lie algebroid A(P) - a vector bundle equipped with some structure like the structure of a Lie algebra in the module of sections. The author of this article shows that the Chern-Weil homomorphism of P is a notion of the Lie algebroid of P, i.e. knowing only A(P) of P one can uniquely reproduce the ring of invariant polynomials ( V g * ) I and the Chern-Weil...

Positioned agents in eco-grammar systems with border markers and pure regulated grammars

Miroslav Langer, Alica Kelemenová (2012)

Kybernetika

In this paper we follow our previous research in the field of positioned agents in the eco-grammar systems and pure grammars. We extend model of the positioned eco-grammar systems by boundary markers and we introduce bordered positioned eco-grammar systems (BPEG systems, for short) and that way we show one of the possible answers to the question stated in [9]. Namely we compare generative power of the BPEG systems with three types of pure regulated grammars with appearance checking.

Positive knots, closed braids and the Jones polynomial

Alexander Stoimenow (2003)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

Using the recent Gauß diagram formulas for Vassiliev invariants of Polyak-Viro-Fiedler and combining these formulas with the Bennequin inequality, we prove several inequalities for positive knots relating their Vassiliev invariants, genus and degrees of the Jones polynomial. As a consequence, we prove that for any of the polynomials of Alexander/Conway, Jones, HOMFLY, Brandt-Lickorish-Millett-Ho and Kauffman there are only finitely many positive knots with the same polynomial and no positive knot...

Positivity of Schur function expansions of Thom polynomials

Piotr Pragacz, Andrzej Weber (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Combining the approach to Thom polynomials via classifying spaces of singularities with the Fulton-Lazarsfeld theory of cone classes and positive polynomials for ample vector bundles, we show that the coefficients of the Schur function expansions of the Thom polynomials of stable singularities are nonnegative with positive sum.

Positivity of Thom polynomials II: the Lagrange singularities

Małgorzata Mikosz, Piotr Pragacz, Andrzej Weber (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We study Thom polynomials associated with Lagrange singularities. We expand them in the basis of Q̃-functions. This basis plays a key role in the Schubert calculus of isotropic Grassmannians. We prove that the Q̃-function expansions of the Thom polynomials of Lagrange singularities always have nonnegative coefficients. This is an analog of a result on the Thom polynomials of mapping singularities and Schur S-functions, established formerly by the last two authors.

Presentations of surface braid groups by graphs

Paolo Bellingeri, Vladimir Vershinin (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We extend and generalise Sergiescu's results on planar graphs and presentations for the braid group Bₙ to other topological generalisations of Bₙ.

Preuve de la conjecture de Poincaré en déformant la métrique par la courbure de Ricci

Gérard Besson (2004/2005)

Séminaire Bourbaki

Nous présentons la preuve de la conjecture de Poincaré, concernant les variétés compactes simplement connexes de dimension 3 , proposée par G. Perel’man. Elle repose sur l’étude de l’évolution de métriques riemanniennes sous le flot de la courbure de Ricci et sur les travaux antérieurs de R. Hamilton. Après une introduction aux techniques analytiques et géométriques développées par R. Hamilton, nous tentons de décrire la méthode de chirurgie métrique utilisée par G. Perel’man pour franchir les temps...
