The first part of this thesis studies the problem of symmetry breaking in the context of simple mechanical systems with compact symmetry Lie group G. In this part we shall assume that the principal stratum of the G-action on the configuration space Q of a ...
The structural refinement of the modulated phase of 4,4'-Diethoxyazoxybenzene (DXB) indicates a correlation between the shifts on the DXB molecule (modulation) and the probability to find the azoxy (N --> O) group in different configurations (disorder). Th ...
We study obstructions for a quasi-regular mapping f : M -> N of finite degree between Riemannian manifolds to blow up on or collapse on a non-trivial part of the boundary of M. ...
We propose here some basic approaches to direct processing of the 360o-images as we take into consideration the geometry of each one. Obviously, the geometry of each of these images is a consequence of the geometry of the sensor's mirror used. This tech ...
Summary: We explicitly give calT, the Teichmüller space of four-holed spheres (which we call X pieces) in trace coordinates, as well as its modular group and a fundamental domain for the action of this group on calT which is its moduli space. As a co ...
We obtain Liouville type theorems for mappings with bounded s-distorsion between Riemannian manifolds. Besides these mappings, we introduce and study a new class, which we call mappings with bounded q-codistorsion. ...
In this paper, we prove that if f is a conformal map between two Riemannian surfaces, and if the curvature of the target is nonpositive and less than or equal to the curvature of the source, then the map is contracting. ...
For every hyperbolic group and more general hyperbolic graphs, we construct an equivariant ideal bicombing: this is a homological analogue of the geodesic flow on negatively curved manifolds. We then construct a cohomological invariant which implies that s ...
The goal of this paper is to give an explicit analysis of the geodesic flow on the three dimensional Lie group SOL. In particular we describe its horizon. (The horizon of a riemannian manifold is a topological space parametrizing the asymptotic classes of ...
Summary: We present a method based on an optimal control technique for numerical computations of geodesic paths between two fixed points of a Riemannian manifold under the assumption of existence. In this method, the control variable is the tangent vector ...
