From Geometry to Quantum Mechanics: In Honor of Hideki Omori

This quantity consists of invited expository articles by way of recognized mathematicians in differential geometry and mathematical physics which have been prepared in social gathering of Hideki Omori's contemporary retirement from Tokyo collage of technological know-how and in honor of his primary contributions to those parts.

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

This cutting-edge learn of the options used for designing curves and surfaces for computer-aided layout purposes makes a speciality of the primary that reasonable shapes are continually freed from unessential beneficial properties and are basic in layout. The authors outline equity mathematically, display how newly built curve and floor schemes warrantly equity, and help the consumer in deciding upon and removal form aberrations in a floor version with no destroying the crucial form features of the version.

Professor Peter Hilton is likely one of the top identified mathematicians of his iteration. He has released nearly three hundred books and papers on numerous facets of topology and algebra. the current quantity is to have fun the celebration of his 60th birthday. It starts off with a bibliography of his paintings, through reports of his contributions to topology and algebra.

Dt THE HAMILTON-PERELMAN THEORY OF RICCI FLOW 205 On the other hand, for every t, − d 1 log V = dt V M RdV ≥ λ(gij (t)) by the definition of λ(gij (t)). It follows that on an expanding breather on [t1 , t2 ], ¯ ij (t)) = λ(gij (t))V n2 (gij (t)) < 0 λ(g for some t ∈ [t1 , t2 ]. Then by using statement (i), it implies ¯ ij (t1 )) < λ(g ¯ ij (t2 )) λ(g ¯ ij (t)) is invariant unless we are on an expanding gradient soliton. We also note that λ(g under diffeomorphism and scaling which implies ¯ ij (t1 )) = λ(g ¯ ij (t2 )).

In [60], Hamilton obtained the following Li-Yau estimate for the scalar curvature R(x, t). 2 (Hamilton [60]). Let gij (x, t) be a complete solution of the Ricci flow on a surface M . Assume the scalar curvature of the initial metric is bounded, nonnegative everywhere and positive somewhere. Then the scalar curvature R(x, t) satisfies the Li-Yau estimate ∂R |∇R|2 R − + ≥ 0. 4) Proof. By the above discussion, we know R(x, t) > 0 for t > 0. 4) is equivalent to ∂L 1 1 − |∇L|2 + = △L + R + ≥ 0. 5) Q= ∂L − |∇L|2 = △L + R.
