The excitation of toroidicity-induced Alfven eigenmodes (TAEs) using prescribed external electromagnetic perturbations (hereafter 'antenna') acting on a confined toroidal plasma, as well as its nonlinear couplings to other modes in the system, is studied. ...
Given a topological modular functor V in the sense of Walker, we construct vector bundles Z (lambda) over bar, over (M) over bar (g,n) whose Chern characters define semi-simple cohomological field theories. This construction depends on a determinati ...
As Avez showed (in 1970), the fundamental group of a compact Riemannian manifold of nonpositive sectional curvature has exponential growth if and only if it is not flat. After several generalizations from Gromov, Zimmer, Anderson, Burger and Shroeder, the ...
Let GG be a semisimple algebraic group over a field KK whose characteristic is very good for GG, and let σσ be any GG-equivariant isomorphism from the nilpotent variety to the unipotent variety; the map σσ is known as a Springer isomorphism. Let y∈G(K)y∈G( ...
In this paper we compute the relative class number of all imaginary Abelian fields of prime conductor below 10000. Our approach is based on a novel multiple evaluation technique, and, assuming the ERH, it has a running time of O(p2 log 2(p) log log (p)), w ...
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We give a birational characterization of ordinary abelian varieties over k: a smooth projective variety X is birational to an ordinary abelian variety if and only if kappa(S)(X) = 0 and b(1)(X ...
Let G be a connected, semisimple algebraic group over a field k whose characteristic is very good for G. In a canonical manner, one associates to a nilpotent element X is an element of Lie(G) a parabolic subgroup P - in characteristic zero, P may be descri ...
The pullback scheme is implemented in the global gyrokinetic particle-in-cell code ORB5 (Jolliet et al., 2007[1]) to mitigate the cancellation problem in electromagnetic simulations. The equations and the discretisation used by the code are described. Nume ...
