$n$-harmonic coordinates and the regularity of conformal mappings

2014

This article studies the smoothness of conformal mappings between two Riemannian manifolds whose metric tensors have limited regularity. We show that any bi-Lipschitz conformal mapping or $1$-quasiregular mapping between two manifolds with $C^r$ metric tensors ($r > 1$) is a $C^{r+1}$ conformal (local) diffeomorphism. This result was proved in [12, 27, 33], but we give a new proof of this fact. The proof is based on $n$-harmonic coordinates, a generalization of the standard harmonic coordinates that is particularly suited to studying conformal mappings. We establish the existence of a $p$-harmonic coordinate system for $1 < p < \infty$ on any Riemannian manifold.

Studies of malformation syndromes of man XIB: the cerebro-hepato-renal syndrome of zellweger: Comparative pathology

1976

A study of 11 autopsied cases of the cerebro-hepato-renal syndrome of Zellweger (ZS) is reported. All cases had severe, persistent congenital hypotonia, hepatic lobular disarray, renal cortical cysts and pulmonary hypoplasia. Many had cardiovascular malformations, hepatomegaly, cerebral cortical gyral maldevelopment and pancreatic islet hyperplasia. Additional, less frequent findings are delineated. Results of iron content studies of hepatic and renal tissues are related to age of survival and possible development of fibrosis.

ASSOCIATION BETWEEN HELYCOBACTER PYOLRI INFECTION AND PATHOLOGICAL ORAL MANIFESTATIONS

2016

DATA FROM LITERATURE ARE CONTROVERSAL REGARDING THE PRESENCE OF bELICOBACTER PYLORI (HP) IN DENTAL PLAQUE AND ITS ASSOCIATION WITH GASTRIC INFECTION. oNE OF THE POSSIBLE MECHANISMS SUGGETSED FOR RE-INFECTION IS THE RECOLONIZATION WITH HP DENTAL PLAQUE. THE PURPOSE OF THIS REVIEW WAS TO DETERMINE WHETHER DENTAL PLAQUE, POOR ORAL HYGIENE, AND PERIODONTAL DISEASE WERE RISK FACTORS FOR HP INFECTION.

A construction of Frobenius manifolds from stability conditions

2018

A finite quiver $Q$ without loops or 2-cycles defines a 3CY triangulated category $D(Q)$ and a finite heart $A(Q)$. We show that if $Q$ satisfies some (strong) conditions then the space of stability conditions $Stab(A(Q))$ supported on this heart admits a natural family of semisimple Frobenius manifold structures, constructed using the invariants counting semistable objects in $D(Q)$. In the case of $A_n$ evaluating the family at a special point we recover a branch of the Saito Frobenius structure of the $A_n$ singularity $y^2 = x^{n+1}$. We give examples where applying the construction to each mutation of $Q$ and evaluating the families at a special point yields a different branch of the m…

Conifold Transitions and Mirror Symmetry for Calabi-Yau Complete Intersections in Grassmannians

1997

In this paper we show that conifold transitions between Calabi-Yau 3-folds can be used for the construction of mirror manifolds and for the computation of the instanton numbers of rational curves on complete intersection Calabi-Yau 3-folds in Grassmannians. Using a natural degeneration of Grassmannians $G(k,n)$ to some Gorenstein toric Fano varieties $P(k,n)$ with conifolds singularities which was recently described by Sturmfels, we suggest an explicit mirror construction for Calabi-Yau complete intersections $X \subset G(k,n)$ of arbitrary dimension. Our mirror construction is consistent with the formula for the Lax operator conjectured by Eguchi, Hori and Xiong for gravitational quantum c…

Quantum deformation of the Poincare supergroup and kappa -deformed superspace

1994

The classical $r$-matrix for $N=1$ superPoincar{\'e} algebra, given by Lukierski, Nowicki and Sobczyk is used to describe the graded Poisson structure on the $N=1$ Poincar{\'e} supergroup. The standard correspondence principle between the even (odd) Poisson brackets and (anti)commutators leads to the consistent quantum deformation of the superPoincar{\'e} group with the deformation parameter $q$ described by fundamental mass parameter $\kappa \quad (\kappa^{-1}=\ln{q})$. The $\kappa$-deformation of $N=1$ superspace as dual to the $\kappa$-deformed supersymmetry algebra is discussed.

Observations on the Darboux coordinates for rigid special geometry

2006

We exploit some relations which exist when (rigid) special geometry is formulated in real symplectic special coordinates $P^I=(p^\Lambda,q_\Lambda), I=1,...,2n$. The central role of the real $2n\times 2n$ matrix $M(\Re \mathcal{F},\Im \mathcal{F})$, where $\mathcal{F} = \partial_\Lambda\partial_\Sigma F$ and $F$ is the holomorphic prepotential, is elucidated in the real formalism. The property $M\Omega M=\Omega$ with $\Omega$ being the invariant symplectic form is used to prove several identities in the Darboux formulation. In this setting the matrix $M$ coincides with the (negative of the) Hessian matrix $H(S)=\frac{\partial^2 S}{\partial P^I\partial P^J}$ of a certain hamiltonian real fun…

Gravity, Non-Commutative Geometry and the Wodzicki Residue

1993

We derive an action for gravity in the framework of non-commutative geometry by using the Wodzicki residue. We prove that for a Dirac operator $D$ on an $n$ dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with $n\geq 4$, $n$ even, the Wodzicki residue Res$(D^{-n+2})$ is the integral of the second coefficient of the heat kernel expansion of $D^{2}$. We use this result to derive a gravity action for commutative geometry which is the usual Einstein Hilbert action and we also apply our results to a non-commutative extension which, is given by the tensor product of the algebra of smooth functions on a manifold and a finite dimensional matrix algebra. In this case we obtain gravity with a cosmological co…
