Catastrophe models and the expansion method: A review of issues and an application to the econometric modeling of economic growth.
This is mainly a survey on the theory of caustics and wave front propagations with applications to differential geometry of hypersurfaces in Euclidean space. We give a brief review of the general theory of caustics and wave front propagations, which are well-known now. We also consider a relationship between caustics and wave front propagations which might be new. Moreover, we apply this theory to differential geometry of hypersurfaces, getting new geometric properties.
Newton's method for computation of a square root yields a difference equation which can be solved using the hyperbolic cotangent function. For the computation of the third root Newton's sequence presents a harder problem, which already Cayley was trying to solve. In the present paper two mutually inverse functions are defined in order to solve the difference equation, instead of the hyperbolic cotangent and its inverse. Several coefficients in the expansion around the fixed points are obtained,...
[For the entire collection see Zbl 0742.00067.]We are interested in partial differential equations on domains in . One of the most natural questions is that of analytic continuation of solutions and domains of holomorphy. Our aim is to describe the domains of holomorphy for solutions of the complex Laplace and Dirac equations. We call them cells of harmonicity. We deduce their properties mostly by examining geometrical properties of the characteristic surface (which is the same for both equations),...
The main result of the present paper is an exact sequence which describes the group of central extensions of a connected infinite-dimensional Lie group by an abelian group whose identity component is a quotient of a vector space by a discrete subgroup. A major point of this result is that it is not restricted to smoothly paracompact groups and hence applies in particular to all Banach- and Fréchet-Lie groups. The exact sequence encodes in particular precise obstructions for a given Lie algebra...
Partially supported by Sapientia Foundation.We prove a general minimax result for multivalued mapping. As application, we give existence results of critical point of this mapping which satisfies the Cerami (C) condition.
Let be a smooth manifold, a local algebra in sense of André Weil, the manifold of near points on of kind and the module of vector fields on . We give a new definition of vector fields on and we show that is a Lie algebra over . We study the cohomology of -differential forms. Résumé. On considère une variété différentielle, une algèbre locale au sens d’André Weil, la variété des points proches de d’espèce et le module des champs de vecteurs sur . On donne une nouvelle...
Nous démontrons des inégalités de Morse-Witten asymptotiques pour la dimension des groupes de cohomologie des puissances tensorielles d’un fibré holomorphe en droites hermitien au-dessus d’une variété - analytique compacte. La dimension du -ième groupe de cohomologie se trouve ainsi majorée par une intégrale de courbure intrinsèque, étendue à l’ensemble des points d’indice de la forme de courbure du fibré. La preuve repose sur un théorème spectral qui décrit la distribution asymptotique des...
Dans la première partie de ce travail, on prouve l’existence de champs stratifiés dits totalement radiaux sur un ensemble stratifié abstrait (e.s.a.). Ces champs sont stables et peuvent être choisis continus sur les espaces stratifiés plongés qui sont -réguliers au sens de K. Bekka. Dans la seconde partie, on établit pour ces espaces un théorème de Poincaré-Hopf pour les champs totalement radiaux continus. On en déduit un résultat similaire pour les e.s.a.
