摘要:This paper is concerned with the construction of special metrics on non-compact 4-manifolds which arise as resolutions of complex orbifold singularities. Our study is close in spirit to the construction of the hyperkahler gravitational instantons, but we focus on a different class of singularities. We show that any resolution X of an isolated cyclic quotient singularity admits a complete scalar-flat Kahler metric (which is hyperkahler if and only if K-X is trivial), and that if K-X is strictly...

摘要:In this paper, we show that Goodwillie calculus, as applied to functors from stable homotopy to itself, interacts in striking ways with chromatic aspects of the stable category. Localized at a fixed prime p, let T(n) be the telescope of a v(n) self map of a finite S-module of type n. The Periodicity Theorem of Hopkins and Smith implies that the Bousfield localization functor associated to T(n)(*) is independent of choices. Goodwillie's general theory says that to any homotopy functor F from S-...

摘要:We show that the minimization of the Lagrangian action functional on suitable classes of symmetric loops yields collisionless periodic orbits of the n-body problem, provided that some simple conditions on the symmetry group are satisfied. More precisely, we give a fairly general condition on symmetry groups G of the loop space Lambda for the n-body problem (with potential of homogeneous degree -alpha, with alpha>0) which ensures that the restriction of the Lagrangian action A to the space Lamb...

摘要:For the wave equation associated to the Laplacian on a compact manifold with boundary with a conic metric (with respect to which the boundary is metrically a point) the propagation of singularities through the boundary is analyzed. Under appropriate regularity assumptions the diffracted, non-direct, wave produced by the boundary is shown to have Sobolev regularity greater than the incoming wave.

摘要:Consider a one parameter family of diffeomorphisms f(epsilon) such that f(0) is an Anosov element in a standard abelian Anosov action having sufficiently strong mixing properties. Let nu(epsilon) be any u-Gibbs state for f(epsilon). We prove (Theorem 1) that for any C-infinity function A the map epsilon-->nu(epsilon)(A) is differentiable at epsilon=0. This implies (Corollary 2.2) that the difference of Birkhoff averages of the perturbed and unperturbed systems is proportional to epsilon. We ap...

摘要:In this paper, we shall prove that Axiom A maps are dense in the space of C-2 interval maps (endowed with the C-2 topology). As a step of the proof, we shall prove real and complex a priori bounds for (first return maps to certain small neighborhoods of the critical points of) real analytic multimodal interval maps with non-degenerate critical points. We shall also discuss rigidity for interval maps without large bounds.

摘要:Let G be a compact Lie group, and let LG denote the corresponding loop group. Let (X,omega) be a weakly symplectic Banach manifold. Consider a Hamiltonian action of LG on (X,omega), and assume that the moment map mu:X-->Lg(*) is proper. We consider the function |mu|(2):X-->R, and use a version of Morse theory to show that the inclusion map j:mu(-1)(0)-->X induces a surjection j(*):H-G(*)(X)-->H-G(*)(mu(-1)(0)), in analogy with Kirwan's surjectivity theorem in the finite-dimensional case. We al...

摘要:We prove a conjecture of Zahariuta which itself solves a problem of Kolmogorov on the epsilon-entropy of some classes of analytic functions. For a given holomorphically convex compact subset K in a pseudoconvex domain D in C-n, Zahariuta's conjecture consists in approximating the relative extremal function u* (K,D), uniformly on any compact subset of D \ K, by pluricomplex Green functions on D with logarithmic poles in the compact subset K.
