Homeomorphisms of finite distortion: discrete length of radial images
2008
AbstractWe study homeomorphisms of finite exponentially integrable distortion of the unit ball Bn onto a domain Ω of finite volume. We show that under such a mapping the images of almost all radii (in terms of a gauge dimension) have finite discrete length. We also show that our dimension estimate is essentially sharp.
Generalized Metric Spaces and Locally Uniformly Rotund Renormings
2009
A class of generalized metric spaces is a class of spaces defined by a property shared by all metric αspaces which is close to metrizability in some sense [Gru84]. The s-spaces are defined by replacing the base by network in the Bing-Nagata-Smirnov metrization theorem; i.e. a topological space is a αspace if it has a αdiscrete network. Here we shall deal with a further re- finement replacing discrete by isolated or slicely isolated. Indeed we will see that the identity map from a subset A of a normed space is A of a normedslicely continuous if, and only if, the weak topology relative to A has a s-slicely isolated network. If A is also a radial set then we have that the identity map Id : (X,…
Geometric mean and triangles inscribed in a semicircle in Banach spaces
2008
AbstractWe consider the triangles with vertices x, −x and y where x,y are points on the unit sphere of a normed space. Using the geometric means of the variable lengths of the sides of these triangles, we define two geometric constants for Banach spaces. These constants are closely related to the modulus of convexity of the space under consideration, and they seem to represent a useful tool to estimate the exact values of the James and Jordan–von Neumann constants of some Banach spaces.
Relating RSS News/Items
2009
Merging related RSS news (coming from one or different sources) is beneficial for end-users with different backgrounds (journalists, economists, etc.), particularly those accessing similar information. In this paper, we provide a practical approach to both: measure the relatedness, and identify relationships between RSS elements. Our approach is based on the concepts of semantic neighborhood and vector space model, and considers the content and structure of RSS news items. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
Analysis of an Experimental Model of In Vitro Cardiac Tissue Using Phase Space Reconstruction
2014
International audience; The in vitro cultures of cardiac cells represent valuable models to study the mechanism of the arrhythmias at the cellular level. But the dynamics of these experimental models cannot be characterized precisely, as they include a lot of parameters that depend on experimental conditions. This paper is devoted to the investigation of the dynamics of an in vitro model using a phase space reconstruction. Our model, based on the heart cells of new born rats, generates electrical field potentials acquired using a microelectrode technology, which are analyzed in normal and under external stimulation conditions. Phase space reconstructions of electrical field potential signal…
Kolmogorov Superposition Theorem and Wavelet Decomposition for Image Compression
2009
International audience; Kolmogorov Superposition Theorem stands that any multivariate function can be decomposed into two types of monovariate functions that are called inner and external functions: each inner function is associated to one dimension and linearly combined to construct a hash-function that associates every point of a multidimensional space to a value of the real interval $[0,1]$. These intermediate values are then associated by external functions to the corresponding value of the multidimensional function. Thanks to the decomposition into monovariate functions, our goal is to apply this decomposition to images and obtain image compression. We propose a new algorithm to decomp…
Characterizations of convex approximate subdifferential calculus in Banach spaces
2016
International audience; We establish subdifferential calculus rules for the sum of convex functions defined on normed spaces. This is achieved by means of a condition relying on the continuity behaviour of the inf-convolution of their corresponding conjugates, with respect to any given topology intermediate between the norm and the weak* topologies on the dual space. Such a condition turns out to also be necessary in Banach spaces. These results extend both the classical formulas by Hiriart-Urruty and Phelps and by Thibault.
Integrability and Non Integrability of Some n Body Problems
2016
International audience; We prove the non integrability of the colinear 3 and 4 body problem, for any positive masses. To deal with resistant cases, we present strong integrability criterions for 3 dimensional homogeneous potentials of degree −1, and prove that such cases cannot appear in the 4 body problem. Following the same strategy, we present a simple proof of non integrability for the planar n body problem. Eventually, we present some integrable cases of the n body problem restricted to some invariant vector spaces.
Free vs. Locally Free Kleinian Groups
2015
Abstract We prove that Kleinian groups whose limit sets are Cantor sets of Hausdorff dimension < < 1 are free. On the other hand we construct for any ε > > 0 an example of a non-free purely hyperbolic Kleinian group whose limit set is a Cantor set of Hausdorff dimension < < 1 + + ε.
Finite index subgroups of mapping class groups
2011
Let g ≥ 3 and n ≥ 0, and let Mg,n be the mapping class group of a surface of genus g with n boundary components. We prove that Mg,n contains a unique subgroup of index 2g−1(2g − 1) up to conjugation, a unique subgroup of index 2g−1(2g + 1) up to conjugation, and the other proper subgroups ofMg,n are of index greater than 2g−1(2g+1). In particular, the minimum index for a proper subgroup of Mg,n is 2g−1(2g − 1). AMS Subject Classification. Primary: 57M99. Secondary: 20G40, 20E28. 0 Introduction and statement of results The interaction between mapping class groups and finite groups has long been a topic of interest. The famous Hurwitz bound of 1893 showed that the mapping class group of a clo…
