On electric and magnetic problems for vector fields in anisotropic nonhomogeneous media
1983
r= 3~2, initiated by Saranen [ 131. In the above, n is the outward-drawn unit normal to the boundary and A denotes the exterior product. According to the simple models for static magnetic fields (resp. electric fields) which are governed by (0.1) (resp. (0.2)), we call (0.1) the magnetic type problem and (0.2) the electric type problem. Considering bounded smooth domains a c R3, we discussed in [ 131, by means of an appropriate Hilbert space method, the solvability and the representation of the solutions for both problems (0.1) and (0.2). Such a new approach was necessary to cover the general nonhomogeneous cases where v and E are matrix-valued functions. Here our aim is twofold. First, we …
Flots de Smale en dimension 3: présentations finies de voisinages invariants d'ensembles selles
2002
Abstract Given a vector field X on a compact 3-manifold, and a hyperbolic saddle-like set K of that vector field, we consider all the filtering neighbourhood of K: by such, we mean any submanifold which boundary is tranverse to X, the maximal invariant of which is equal to K and which intersection with every orbit of X is connected. Up to topological equivalence, there is only a finite number of such neighbourhoods. We give a finite combinatorial presentation of the global dynamics on any such neighbourhood. A key step is the construction of a unique model of the germ of X along K; this model is, roughly speaking, the simplest three-dimensional manifold and the simplest Smale flow exhibitin…
Bader’s topological analysis of the electron density in the pressure-induced phase transitions/amorphization in α-quartz from the catastrophe theory …
2013
In this work, the Bader's topological analysis of the electron density, coupled with Thom's catastrophe theory, was used to characterize the pressure-induced transformations in α-quartz. In particular, ab initio calculations of the α-quartz structures in the range 0-105 Gpa have been performed at the HF/DFT exchange-correlation terms level, using Hamiltonians based on a WC1LYP hybrid scheme. The electron densities calculated throughout the ab initio wave functions have been analysed by means of the Bader's theory, seeking for some catastrophic mechanism in the sense of Thom's theory. The analysis mainly showed that there is a typical fold catastrophe feature involving an O-O interaction at …
Numerical 3D modelling of turbulent melt flow in a large CZ system with horizontal DC magnetic field. II. Comparison with measurements
2004
This paper presents a comparison between numerically calculated and measured temperature distributions in turbulent flow in a laboratory model for a CZ large silicon single crystal industrial growth system with a horizontal DC magnetic field. The laboratory model consists of an electrically heated 20” crucible with low-temperature InGaSn melt, a water-cooled metallic crystal model, and a magnet system creating a horizontal magnetic field in the range 0–. Distributions of time-averaged temperature values in various cross sections in the melt are obtained from measurements by a multichannel thermocouple system. A 3D numerical model for the scalar potential induced in the melt by the velocity …
On singularities of discontinuous vector fields
2003
Abstract The subject of this paper concerns the classification of typical singularities of a class of discontinuous vector fields in 4D. The focus is on certain discontinuous systems having some symmetric properties.
The constant osculating rank of the Wilking manifold
2008
We prove that the osculating rank of the Wilking manifold V3 = (SO (3) × SU (3)) / U• (2), endowed with the metric over(g, )1, equals 2. The knowledge of the osculating rank allows us to solve the differential equation of the Jacobi vector fields. These results can be applied to determine the area and the volume of geodesic spheres and balls. To cite this article: E. Macias-Virgos et al., C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser.

ON THE INDEX OF VECTOR FIELDS TANGENT TO HYPERSURFACES WITH NON-ISOLATED SINGULARITIES
2002
Let $F$ be a germ of a holomorphic function at $0$ in ${\bb C}^{n+1}$ , having $0$ as a critical point not necessarily isolated, and let $\tilde{X}:= \sum^n_{j=0} X^j(\partial/\partial z_j)$ be a germ of a holomorphic vector field at $0$ in ${\bb C}^{n+1}$ with an isolated zero at $0$ , and tangent to $V := F^{-1}(0)$ . Consider the ${\cal O}_{V,0}$ -complex obtained by contracting the germs of Kahler differential forms of $V$ at $0$ \renewcommand{\theequation}{0.\arabic{equation}} \begin{equation} \Omega^i_{V,0}:=\frac{\Omega^i_{{\bb C}^{n+1},0}}{F\Omega^i_{{\bb C}^{n+1},0}+dF\wedge{\Omega^{i-1}}_{{\bb C}^{n+1}},0} \end{equation} with the vector field $X:=\tilde{X}|_V$ on $V$ : \begin{equa…
Braiding minimal sets of vector fields
2002
We extend a classical but fundamental theorem of knot and braid theories to describe the geometry of nonsingular minimal sets of 3-dimensional flows.
The index of stable critical points
2002
Abstract In this paper we show that in dimension greater or equal than 3 the index of a stable critical point can be any integer. More concretely, given any k∈ Z and n⩾3 we construct a C ∞ vector field on R n with a unique critical point which is stable (in positive and negative time) and has index equal to k. This result extends previous ones on the index of stable critical points.
Anharmonicity deformation and curvature in supersymmetric potentials
1994
An algebraic description of the class of 1D supersymmetric shape invariant potentials is investigated in terms of the shape-invariant-potential (SIP) deformed algebra, the generators of which act both on the dynamical variable and on the parameters of the potentials. The phase space geometry associated with SIP's is studied by means of a coherent state (SIP-CS) path integral and the ray metric of the SIP-CS manifold. The anharmonicity of SIP's results in a inhomogeneous phase space manifold with one Killing vector and with a modified symplectic Kahler structure, and it induces a non constant curvature into the generalized phase space. Analogous results from the phase space geometry of someq…
