Characteristic numbers of non‐autonomous emden‐fowler type equations

2006

We consider the Emden‐Fowler equation x” = ‐q(t)|x|2εx, ε > 0, in the interval [a,b]. The coefficient q(t) is a positive valued continuous function. The Nehari characteristic number An associated with the Emden‐Fowler equation coincides with a minimal value of the functional [] over all solutions of the boundary value problem x” = ‐q(t)|x|2εx, x(a) = x(b) = 0, x(t) has exactly (n ‐ 1) zeros in (a, b). The respective solution is called the Nehari solution. We construct an example which shows that the Nehari extremal problem may have more than one solution. First Published Online: 14 Oct 2010

Symmetric frames on Lorentzian spaces

1991

Symmetric frames (those whose vectors are metrically indistinguishable) are studied both, from the algebraic and differential points of view. Symmetric frames which, in addition, remain indistinguishable for a given set of concomitants of the metric are analyzed, and the necessary and sufficient conditions for a space‐time to admit them are given. A new version of the cosmological principle then follows. Natural symmetric frames (induced by local charts) are also considered, and the space‐times admitting them are obtained.

Projective Crystalline Representations of \'Etale Fundamental Groups and Twisted Periodic Higgs-de Rham Flow

2017

This paper contains three new results. {\bf 1}.We introduce new notions of projective crystalline representations and twisted periodic Higgs-de Rham flows. These new notions generalize crystalline representations of \'etale fundamental groups introduced in [7,10] and periodic Higgs-de Rham flows introduced in [19]. We establish an equivalence between the categories of projective crystalline representations and twisted periodic Higgs-de Rham flows via the category of twisted Fontaine-Faltings module which is also introduced in this paper. {\bf 2.}We study the base change of these objects over very ramified valuation rings and show that a stable periodic Higgs bundle gives rise to a geometric…

The Lang–Vojta Conjectures on Projective Pseudo-Hyperbolic Varieties

2020

These notes grew out of a mini-course given from May 13th to May 17th at UQAM in Montreal during a workshop on Diophantine Approximation and Value Distribution Theory.

Special elements in a ring related to Drazin inverses

2013

In this paper, the existence of the Drazin (group) inverse of an element a in a ring is analyzed when amk = kan, for some unit k and m; n 2 N. The same problem is studied for the case when a* = kamk-1 and for the fk; s+1g-potent elements. In addition, relationships with other special elements of the ring are also obtained

Finiteness properties of pseudo-hyperbolic varieties

2019

Motivated by Lang-Vojta's conjecture, we show that the set of dominant rational self-maps of an algebraic variety over a number field with only finitely many rational points in any given number field is finite by combining Amerik's theorem for dynamical systems of infinite order with properties of Prokhorov-Shramov's notion of quasi-minimal models. We also prove a similar result in the geometric setting by using again Amerik's theorem and Prokhorov-Shramov's notion of quasi-minimal model, but also Weil's regularization theorem for birational self-maps and properties of dynamical degrees. Furthermore, in the geometric setting, we obtain an analogue of Kobayashi-Ochiai's finiteness result for…

An overview on bounded elements in some partial algebraic structures

2015

The notion of bounded element is fundamental in the framework of the spectral theory. Before implanting a spectral theory in some algebraic or topological structure it is needed to establish which are its bounded elements. In this paper, we want to give an overview on bounded elements of some particular algebraic and topological structures, summarizing our most recent results on this matter.

The snail lemma for internal groupoids

2019

Abstract We establish a generalized form both of the Gabriel-Zisman exact sequence associated with a pointed functor between pointed groupoids, and of the Brown exact sequence associated with a fibration of pointed groupoids. Our generalization consists in replacing pointed groupoids with groupoids internal to a pointed regular category with reflexive coequalizers.

Fibred-categorical obstruction theory

2022

Abstract We set up a fibred categorical theory of obstruction and classification of morphisms that specialises to the one of monoidal functors between categorical groups and also to the Schreier-Mac Lane theory of group extensions. Further applications are provided to crossed extensions and crossed bimodule butterflies, with in particular a classification of non-abelian extensions of unital associative algebras in terms of Hochschild cohomology.
