From Geometry to Quantum Mechanics: In Honor of Hideki Omori

This quantity consists of invited expository articles via famous mathematicians in differential geometry and mathematical physics which were prepared in occasion of Hideki Omori's fresh retirement from Tokyo college of technology and in honor of his basic contributions to those parts.

Designing fair curves and surfaces: shape quality in geometric modeling and computer-aided design

This state of the art examine of the concepts used for designing curves and surfaces for computer-aided layout purposes makes a speciality of the main that reasonable shapes are constantly freed from unessential good points and are uncomplicated in layout. The authors outline equity mathematically, display how newly constructed curve and floor schemes warrantly equity, and support the person in settling on and elimination form aberrations in a floor version with out destroying the significant form features of the version.

Topological Topics: Articles on Algebra and Topology Presented to Professor P J Hilton in Celebration of his Sixtieth Birthday

Professor Peter Hilton is without doubt one of the most sensible identified mathematicians of his new release. He has released virtually three hundred books and papers on quite a few features of topology and algebra. the current quantity is to have fun the party of his 60th birthday. It starts with a bibliography of his paintings, through reports of his contributions to topology and algebra.

In particular, a variationally trivial Lagrangian necessarily is d H -exact if the de n (Y ) of Y is trivial. Rham cohomology group HDR A variational operator i |Λ| j Λ i [∂ Λ j Ei θΛ ∧ θ + (−1) θ ∧ dΛ (∂ j Ei θ )] ∧ ω, j δ : E1 → E2 , δ(E ) = 0≤|Λ| is called the Helmholtz–Sonin map. , if it is δ-closed. 14, too. 16 An Euler–Lagrange-type operator E ∈ E1 reads E = δL + ρ(σ ), 0,n , L ∈ O∞ where σ is a closed (n + 1)-form on Y . In particular, any Euler–Lagrange-type operator E ∈ E1 is the Euler–Lagrange n+1 (Y ) of Y is trivial.

21) is linear in a generalized vector field υ. 20). , L J ∗ υ L = 0. 23) of the symmetry current Jυ = −h 0 (J ∗ υ Ξ L ). For instance, let υ = υ i ∂i be a vertical generalized vector field on Y → X . 23) takes a form 0 ≈ −d H (J ∗ υ Ξ L ). 25) J = −J ∗ υ Ξ L . 21) holds. We call it the gauge conservation law. Because gauge symmetries depend on parameter variables and their jets, all gauge conservation laws possess the following peculiarity. 26) where the term W vanishes on-shell, and U = U νμ ωνμ is a horizontal (n − 2)-form.

11. 26) is called the superpotential. 26), one says that it is reduced to a superpotential [39, 61, 66, 128]. 22) becomes tautological. 8 generalizes the result in [66] for gauge symmetries u whose gauge parameters χ λ = u λ are components of a projection u λ ∂λ of u onto X . 11 In mechanics on a configuration bundle over R (Chap. 7). 8 is called Noether’s third theorem on a superpotential. Chapter 3 Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Field Theories We focus our attention on first order Lagrangian and polysymplectic Hamiltonian theories on fibre bundles since the most of relevant field models is of this type [53, 61, 133].
