Periodicity of Non-Central Integral Arrangements Modulo Positive Integers

An integral coefficient matrix determines an integral arrangement of hyperplanes in \mathbbR^m{\mathbb{R}^m} . After modulo q reduction ${(q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }})}${(q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }})} , the same matrix determines an arrangement A_q{\mathcal{A}_q} of “hyperplanes” in \mathbbZ^m_q{\mathbb{Z}^m_q} . In the special case of central arrangements, Kamiya, Takemura, and Terao [J. Algebraic Combin. 27(3), 317–330 (2008)] showed that the cardinality of the complement of A_q{\mathcal{A}_q} in \mathbbZ^m_q{\mathbb{Z}^m_q} is a quasi-polynomial in ${q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }}}${q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }}} . Moreover, they proved in the central case that the intersection lattice of A_q{\mathcal{A}_q} is periodic from some q on. The present paper generalizes these results to the case of non-central arrangements. The paper also studies the arrangement [^(B)]_m^[0,a]{\hat{\mathcal{B}}_m^{[0,a]}} of Athanasiadis [J. Algebraic Combin. 10(3), 207–225 (1999)] to illustrate our results.     

On branch points of three-dimensional mappings with unbounded characteristic of quasiconformality

For open discrete mappings f:D\{ b } ? \mathbbR³ f:D\backslash \left\{ b \right\} \to {\mathbb{R}^3} of a domain D ì \mathbbR³ D \subset {\mathbb{R}^3} satisfying relatively general geometric conditions in D \ {b} and having an essential singularity at a point b ? \mathbbR³ b \in {\mathbb{R}^3} , we prove the following statement: Let a point y ₀ belong to [`(\mathbbR³)] \f( D\{ b } ) \overline {{\mathbb{R}^3}} \backslash f\left( {D\backslash \left\{ b \right\}} \right) and let the inner dilatation K _I (x, f) and outer dilatation K _O (x, f) of the mapping f at the point x satisfy certain conditions. Let B _f denote the set of branch points of the mapping f. Then, for an arbitrary neighborhood V of the point y ₀, the set V ∩ f(B _f ) cannot be contained in a set A such that g(A) = I, where I = { t ? \mathbbR:| t | < 1 } I = \left\{ {t \in \mathbb{R}:\left| t \right| < 1} \right\} and g:U ? \mathbbRⁿ g:U \to {\mathbb{R}^n} is a quasiconformal mapping of a domain U ì \mathbbRⁿ U \subset {\mathbb{R}^n} such that A ⊂ U.     

Solutions to Polynomial Generalized Bers–Vekua Equations in Clifford Analysis

In this paper, we mainly study polynomial generalized Vekua-type equation _boxclose)w=0{p(\mathcal{D})w=0} and polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation p(D)w=0{p(\mathcal{\underline{D}})w=0} defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}} where D{\mathcal{D}} and D{\mathcal{\underline{D}}} mean generalized Vekua-type operator and generalized Bers–Vekua operator, respectively. Using Clifford algebra, we obtain the Fischer-type decomposition theorems for the solutions to these equations including (D-l)^kw=0,(D-l)^kw=0(k ? \mathbbN){\left(\mathcal{D}-\lambda\right)^{k}w=0,\left(\mathcal {\underline{D}}-\lambda\right)^{k}w=0\left(k\in\mathbb{N}\right)} with complex parameter λ as special cases, which derive the Almansi-type decomposition theorems for iterated generalized Bers–Vekua equation and polynomial generalized Cauchy–Riemann equation defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}}. Making use of the decomposition theorems we give the solutions to polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}} under some conditions. Furthermore we discuss inhomogeneous polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation p(D)w=v{p(\mathcal{\underline{D}})w=v} defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}}, and develop the structure of the solutions to inhomogeneous polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation p(D)w=v{p(\mathcal{\underline{D}})w=v} defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}}.     

Counting Ω-ideals

Let ${\mathbb{A}}Let \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} be a universal algebra of signature Ω, and let I{\mathcal{I}} be an ideal in the Boolean algebra P_\mathbbA{\mathcal{P}_{\mathbb{A}}} of all subsets of \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} . We say that I{\mathcal{I}} is an Ω-ideal if I{\mathcal{I}} contains all finite subsets of \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} and f(Aⁿ) ? I{f(A^{n}) \in \mathcal{I}} for every n-ary operation f ? W{f \in \Omega} and every A ? I{A \in \mathcal{I}} . We prove that there are 2^2à₀{2^{2^{\aleph_0}}} Ω-ideals in P_\mathbbA{\mathcal{P}_{\mathbb{A}}} provided that \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} is countably infinite and Ω is countable.     

Finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras with alternating groups are trivial

It is shown that Nichols algebras over alternating groups \mathbb A_m{\mathbb A_m} (m ≥ 5) are infinite dimensional. This proves that any complex finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebra with group of group-likes isomorphic to \mathbb A_m{\mathbb A_m} is isomorphic to the group algebra. In a similar fashion, it is shown that the Nichols algebras over the symmetric groups \mathbb S_m{\mathbb S_m} are all infinite-dimensional, except maybe those related to the transpositions considered in Fomin and Kirillov (Progr Math 172:146–182, 1999), and the class of type (2, 3) in \mathbb S₅{\mathbb S_5}. We also show that any simple rack X arising from a symmetric group, with the exception of a small list, collapse, in the sense that the Nichols algebra \mathfrak B(X, q){\mathfrak B(X, \bf q)} is infinite dimensional, q an arbitrary cocycle.     

All 4-Edge-Connected HHD-Free Graphs are {\mathbb{Z}_3}-Connected

An undirected graph G = (V, E) is called \mathbbZ₃{\mathbb{Z}_3}-connected if for all b: V ? \mathbbZ₃{b: V \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_3} with ?_{v ? V}b(v)=0{\sum_{v \in V}b(v)=0}, an orientation D = (V, A) of G has a \mathbbZ₃{\mathbb{Z}_3}-valued nowhere-zero flow f: A? \mathbbZ₃-{0}{f: A\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_3-\{0\}} such that ?_{e ? d⁺(v)}f(e)-?_{e ? d^-(v)}f(e)=b(v){\sum_{e \in \delta^+(v)}f(e)-\sum_{e \in \delta^-(v)}f(e)=b(v)} for all v ? V{v \in V}. We show that all 4-edge-connected HHD-free graphs are \mathbbZ₃{\mathbb{Z}_3}-connected. This extends the result due to Lai (Graphs Comb 16:165–176, 2000), which proves the \mathbbZ₃{\mathbb{Z}_3}-connectivity for 4-edge-connected chordal graphs.

A topological version of the Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem with two fixed points      Marc?BoninoEmail author 《Mathematische Annalen》2012,352(4):1013-1028 The main result of this paper gives a topological property satisfied by any homeomorphism of the annulus \mathbb A = \mathbb S1 ×[-1, 1]{\mathbb {A} = \mathbb {S}^1 \times [-1, 1]} isotopic to the identity and with at most one fixed point. This generalizes the classical Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem because this property certainly does not hold for an area preserving homeomorphism h of \mathbb A{\mathbb {A}} with the usual boundary twist condition. We also have two corollaries of this result. The first one shows in particular that the boundary twist assumption may be weakened by demanding that the homeomorphism h has a lift H to the strip [(\mathbbA)\tilde] = \mathbbR ×[-1, 1]{\tilde{\mathbb{A}} = \mathbb{R} \times [-1, 1]} possessing both a forward orbit unbounded on the right and a forward orbit unbounded on the left. As a second corollary we get a new proof of a version of the Conley–Zehnder theorem in \mathbb A{\mathbb {A}} : if a homeomorphism of \mathbb A{\mathbb {A}} isotopic to the identity preserves the area and has mean rotation zero, then it possesses two fixed points.      11. Abelian 2-class field towers over the cyclotomic {\mathbb {Z}_2}-extensions of imaginary quadratic fields      Yasushi Mizusawa  Manabu Ozaki 《Mathematische Annalen》2010,347(2):437-453 For the cyclotomic \mathbb Z2{\mathbb Z_2}-extension k ∞ of an imaginary quadratic field k, we consider whether the Galois group G(k ∞) of the maximal unramified pro-2-extension over k ∞ is abelian or not. The group G(k ∞) is abelian if and only if the nth layer of the \mathbb Z2{\mathbb {Z}_2}-extension has abelian 2-class field tower for all n ≥ 1. The purpose of this paper is to classify all such imaginary quadratic fields k in part by using Iwasawa polynomials.      12. Almost Periodicity of Parabolic Evolution Equations with Inhomogeneous Boundary Values      Mahmoud Baroun  Lahcen Maniar  Roland Schnaubelt 《Integral Equations and Operator Theory》2009,65(2):169-193 We show the existence and uniqueness of the (asymptotically) almost periodic solution to parabolic evolution equations with inhomogeneous boundary values on \mathbbR{\mathbb{R}} and \mathbbR±\mathbb{R}_{\pm}, if the data are (asymptotically) almost periodic. We assume that the underlying homogeneous problem satisfies the ‘Acquistapace–Terreni’ conditions and has an exponential dichotomy. If there is an exponential dichotomy only on half intervals ( − ∞, − T] and [T, ∞), then we obtain a Fredholm alternative of the equation on \mathbbR{\mathbb{R}} in the space of functions being asymptotically almost periodic on \mathbbR+{\mathbb{R}}_{+} and \mathbbR-\mathbb{R}_{-}.      13.

We say G admits all finite transitions if for every r ≥ 2 and every finite symmetric subset W ì G\{e}{W \subset G{\setminus}\{e\}}, there exists an A with S A (r) = W. In this paper we determine which countable abelian groups admit all finite transitions. We also show that \mathbbRn{\mathbb{R}^n} and the finitary symmetric group on \mathbbN{\mathbb{N}} admit all finite transitions.      17.

In this paper, under a technical assumption on f{\phi}, we prove that f{\phi}-stable minimal oriented hypersurface in the three-dimensional manifold with nonnegative P-scalar curvature must be conformally equivalent to either the complex plane \mathbbC{\mathbb{C}} or the cylinder \mathbbR×\mathbbS1{\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{S}^1}.      18.
