This paper completes a proof of the Dirac reduction theorem by involutive tangent subbundles. As a consequence, Dirac reduction by a proper Lie group action having one isotropy type is carried out. The main technical tool in the proof is the notion of part ...
We show that if a smooth multiplicative subbundle S subset of T G on a groupoid G P is involutive and satisfies completeness conditions, then its leaf space G/S inherits a groupoid structure over the space of leaves of TP boolean AND S in P. As an applicat ...
A novel visualization method was developed and implemented in a refrigerant-flooded evaporator tube bundle. Specifically, a method to visualize the two-phase flow inside plain tube bundles was developed using a dummy tube with a tubular glass section for v ...
Dendronized polymers consist of an elastic backbone with a set of iterated branch structures (dendrimers) attached at every base point of the backbone. The conformations of such molecules depend on the elastic deformation of the backbone and the branches, ...
Micrabaciids are solitary, exclusively azooxanthellate deep-sea corals belonging to one of the deepest-living (up to 5,000 m) scleractinian representatives. All modern micrabaciid taxa (genera: Letepsammia, Rhombopsammia, Stephanophyllia, Leptopenus) have ...
In the framework of large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping (LDDMM), a multiscale theory for the diffeomorphism group is developed based on previous works of the authors. The purpose of this paper is (1) to develop in detail a variational approach f ...
K-Theory was originally defined by Grothendieck as a contravariant functor from a subcategory of schemes to abelian groups, known today as K0. The same kind of construction was then applied to other fields of mathematics, like spaces and (not necessarily c ...
The complexity of two-phase flow boiling on a tube bundle presents many challenges to the understanding of the physical phenomena taking place. It is important to quantify these numerous heat flow mechanisms in order to better describe the performance of t ...
Let A be a d-dimensional smooth algebra over a perfect field of characteristic not 2. Let Um(n+1)(A)/En+1 (A) be the set of unimodular rows of length n + 1 up to elementary transformations. If n >= (d + 2)/2, it carries a natural structure of group as disc ...
In this paper, we give a general characterization of regularization functionals for vector field reconstruction, based on the requirement that the said functionals satisfy certain geometric invariance properties with respect to transformations of the coord ...
