Thermodynamics of Rubber Elasticity
2001
A thermodynamic study of an isotropic rubber band under uniaxial stress is presented on the basis of its equation of state. The behavior of the rubber band is compared with both that of an ideal elastomer and that of an ideal gas, considering the generalized Joule's law as the ideality criterion.
Symbolic integration of hyperexponential 1-forms
2019
Let $H$ be a hyperexponential function in $n$ variables $x=(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ with coefficients in a field $\mathbb{K}$, $[\mathbb{K}:\mathbb{Q}] <\infty$, and $\omega$ a rational differential $1$-form. Assume that $H\omega$ is closed and $H$ transcendental. We prove using Schanuel conjecture that there exist a univariate function $f$ and multivariate rational functions $F,R$ such that $\int H\omega= f(F(x))+H(x)R(x)$. We present an algorithm to compute this decomposition. This allows us to present an algorithm to construct a basis of the cohomology of differential $1$-forms with coefficients in $H\mathbb{K}[x,1/(SD)]$ for a given $H$, $D$ being the denominator of $dH/H$ and $S\in\mathbb{K}[x…
Generalized Logical Operations among Conditional Events
2018
We generalize, by a progressive procedure, the notions of conjunction and disjunction of two conditional events to the case of n conditional events. In our coherence-based approach, conjunctions and disjunctions are suitable conditional random quantities. We define the notion of negation, by verifying De Morgan’s Laws. We also show that conjunction and disjunction satisfy the associative and commutative properties, and a monotonicity property. Then, we give some results on coherence of prevision assessments for some families of compounded conditionals; in particular we examine the Frechet-Hoeffding bounds. Moreover, we study the reverse probabilistic inference from the conjunction $\mathcal…
The graded identities of upper triangular matrices of size two
2002
AbstractLet UT2 be the algebra of 2×2 upper triangular matrices over a field F. We first classify all possible gradings on UT2 by a group G. It turns out that, up to isomorphism, there is only one non-trivial grading and we study all the graded polynomial identities for such algebra. In case F is of characteristic zero we give a complete description of the space of multilinear graded identities in the language of Young diagrams through the representation theory of the hyperoctahedral group. We finally establish a result concerning the rate of growth of the identities for such algebra by proving that its sequence of graded codimensions has almost polynomial growth.
Almost polynomial growth: Classifying varieties of graded algebras
2015
Let G be a finite group, V a variety of associative G-graded algebras and c (V), n = 1, 2, …, its sequence of graded codimensions. It was recently shown by Valenti that such a sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if V does not contain a finite list of G-graded algebras. The list consists of group algebras of groups of order a prime number, the infinite-dimensional Grassmann algebra and the algebra of 2 × 2 upper triangular matrices with suitable gradings. Such algebras generate the only varieties of G-graded algebras of almost polynomial growth, i.e., varieties of exponential growth such that any proper subvariety is polynomially bounded. In this paper we completely classify all sub…
Gradings on the algebra of upper triangular matrices and their graded identities
2004
Abstract Let K be an infinite field and let UT n ( K ) denote the algebra of n × n upper triangular matrices over K . We describe all elementary gradings on this algebra. Further we describe the generators of the ideals of graded polynomial identities of UT n ( K ) and we produce linear bases of the corresponding relatively free graded algebras. We prove that one can distinguish the elementary gradings by their graded identities. We describe bases of the graded polynomial identities in several “typical” cases. Although in these cases we consider elementary gradings by cyclic groups, the same methods serve for elementary gradings by any finite group.
F-signature of pairs: Continuity, p-fractals and minimal log discrepancies
2011
This paper contains a number of observations on the {$F$-signature} of triples $(R,\Delta,\ba^t)$ introduced in our previous joint work. We first show that the $F$-signature $s(R,\Delta,\ba^t)$ is continuous as a function of $t$, and for principal ideals $\ba$ even convex. We then further deduce, for fixed $t$, that the $F$-signature is lower semi-continuous as a function on $\Spec R$ when $R$ is regular and $\ba$ is principal. We also point out the close relationship of the signature function in this setting to the works of Monsky and Teixeira on Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and $p$-fractals. Finally, we conclude by showing that the minimal log discrepancy of an arbitrary triple $(R,\Delta,\b…
F-singularities via alterations
2011
For a normal F-finite variety $X$ and a boundary divisor $\Delta$ we give a uniform description of an ideal which in characteristic zero yields the multiplier ideal, and in positive characteristic the test ideal of the pair $(X,\Delta)$. Our description is in terms of regular alterations over $X$, and one consequence of it is a common characterization of rational singularities (in characteristic zero) and F-rational singularities (in characteristic $p$) by the surjectivity of the trace map $\pi_* \omega_Y \to \omega_X$ for every such alteration $\pi \: Y \to X$. Furthermore, building on work of B. Bhatt, we establish up-to-finite-map versions of Grauert-Riemenscheneider and Nadel/Kawamata-V…

Rational normal curves and Hadamard products
2021
AbstractGiven $$r>n$$ r > n general hyperplanes in $$\mathbb P^n,$$ P n , a star configuration of points is the set of all the n-wise intersection of the hyperplanes. We introduce contact star configurations, which are star configurations where all the hyperplanes are osculating to the same rational normal curve. In this paper, we find a relation between this construction and Hadamard products of linear varieties. Moreover, we study the union of contact star configurations on a same conic in $$\mathbb P^2$$ P 2 , we prove that the union of two contact star configurations has a special h-vector and, in some cases, this is a complete intersection.
