Gorenstein Quotient Singularities in Dimension Three
Author: Stephen Shing-Toung Yau
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821825674
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
In chapter one we address the classification of finite subgroups of [italic capitals]SL([bold]3,[double-struck capital]C). This is followed by a general method to find invariant polynomials and their relations of finite subgroups of [italic capitals]GL([bold]3,[double-struck capital]C). Lastly, we recall some properties of quotient varieties and prove that [double-struck capital]C3/[italic capital]G has isolated singularities if and only if [italic capital]G is abelian and 1 is not an eigenvalue of g in [italic capital]G.

Second-Order Sturm-Liouville Difference Equations and Orthogonal Polynomials
Author: Alouf Jirari
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 082180359X
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
This memoir presents machinery for analyzing many discrete physical situations, and should be of interest to physicists, engineers, and mathematicians. We develop a theory for regular and singular Sturm-Liouville boundary value problems for difference equations, generalizing many of the known results for differential equations. We discuss the self-adjointness of these problems as well as their abstract spectral resolution in the appropriate [italic capital]L2 setting, and give necessary and sufficient conditions for a second-order difference operator to be self-adjoint and have orthogonal polynomials as eigenfunctions.

${\mathcal I}$-Density Continuous Functions
Author: Krzysztof Ciesielski
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821825798
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
The [script capital]I-density topology is a generalization of the ordinary density topology to the setting of category instead of measure. This work involves functions which are continuous when combinations of the [script capital]I-density, deep [script capital]I-density, density and ordinary topology are used on the domain and range. In the process of examining these functions, the [script capital]I-density and deep-[script capital]I-density topologies are deeply explored and the properties of these function classes as semigroups are considered.

Generalized Tate Cohomology
Author: John Patrick Campbell Greenlees
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821826034
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Let [italic capital]G be a compact Lie group, [italic capitals]EG a contractible free [italic capital]G-space and let [italic capitals]E~G be the unreduced suspension of [italic capitals]EG with one of the cone points as basepoint. Let [italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G be a [italic capital]G-spectrum. Let [italic capital]X+ denote the disjoint union of [italic capital]X and a [italic capital]G-fixed basepoint. Define the [italic capital]G-spectra [italic]f([italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) = [italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G [up arrowhead symbol] [italic capitals]EG+, [italic]c([italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) = [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G), and [italic]t([italic]k[subscript italic capital]G)* = [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) [up arrowhead symbol] [italic capitals]E~G. The last of these is the [italic capital]G-spectrum representing the generalized Tate homology and cohomology theories associated to [italic]k[subscript italic capital]G. Here [italic capital]F([italic capitals]EG+,[italic]k*[over][subscript italic capital]G) is the function space spectrum. The authors develop the properties of these theories, illustrating the manner in which they generalize the classical Tate-Swan theories.

A Proof of the $q$-Macdonald-Morris Conjecture for $BC_n$
Author: Kevin W. J. Kadell
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821825526
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 93
Book Description
Macdonald and Morris gave a series of constant term [italic]q-conjectures associated with root systems. Selberg evaluated a multivariable beta-type integral which plays an important role in the theory of constant term identities associated with root systems. K. Aomoto recently gave a simple and elegant proof of a generalization of Selberg's integral. Kadell extended this proof to treat Askey's conjectured [italic]q-Selberg integral, which was proved independently by Habsieger. We use a constant term formulation of Aomoto's argument to treat the [italic]q-Macdonald-Morris conjecture for the root system [italic capitals]BC[subscript italic]n. We show how to obtain the required functional equations using only the q-transportation theory for [italic capitals]BC[subscript italic]n.

Algebraic and Geometric Combinatorics
Author: Christos A. Athanasiadis
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821840800
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
This volume contains original research and survey articles stemming from the Euroconference ``Algebraic and Geometric Combinatorics''. The papers discuss a wide range of problems that illustrate interactions of combinatorics with other branches of mathematics, such as commutative algebra, algebraic geometry, convex and discrete geometry, enumerative geometry, and topology of complexes and partially ordered sets. Among the topics covered are combinatorics of polytopes, lattice polytopes, triangulations and subdivisions, Cohen-Macaulay cell complexes, monomial ideals, geometry of toric surfaces, groupoids in combinatorics, Kazhdan-Lusztig combinatorics, and graph colorings. This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students interested in various aspects of modern combinatorial theories.

New Trends in Algebraic Geometry
Author: Klaus Hulek
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521646598
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
This book is the outcome of the 1996 Warwick Algebraic Geometry EuroConference, containing 17 survey and research articles selected from the most outstanding contemporary research topics in algebraic geometry. Several of the articles are expository: among these a beautiful short exposition by Paranjape of the new and very simple approach to the resolution of singularities; a detailed essay by Ito and Nakamura on the ubiquitous A,D,E classification, centred around simple surface singularities; a discussion by Morrison of the new special Lagrangian approach to giving geometric foundations to mirror symmetry; and two deep, informative surveys by Siebert and Behrend on Gromow-Witten invariants treating them from the point of view of algebraic and symplectic geometry. The remaining articles cover a wide cross-section of the most significant research topics in algebraic geometry. This includes Gromow-Witten invariants, Hodge theory, Calabi-Yau 3-folds, mirror symmetry and classification of varieties.

Deformation Quantization for Actions of $R^d$
Author: Marc Aristide Rieffel
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821825755
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
This work describes a general construction of a deformation quantization for any Poisson bracket on a manifold which comes from an action of R ]d on that manifold. These deformation quantizations are strict, in the sense that the deformed product of any two functions is again a function and that there are corresponding involutions and operator norms. Many of the techniques involved are adapted from the theory of pseudo-differential operators. The construction is shown to have many favorable properties. A number of specific examples are described, ranging from basic ones such as quantum disks, quantum tori, and quantum spheres, to aspects of quantum groups.
