Linear Dynamical Systems on Hilbert Spaces: Typical Properties and Explicit Examples
Author: S. Grivaux
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470446634
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 147
Book Description
We solve a number of questions pertaining to the dynamics of linear operators on Hilbert spaces, sometimes by using Baire category arguments and sometimes by constructing explicit examples. In particular, we prove the following results. (i) A typical hypercyclic operator is not topologically mixing, has no eigen-values and admits no non-trivial invariant measure, but is densely distri-butionally chaotic. (ii) A typical upper-triangular operator with coefficients of modulus 1 on the diagonal is ergodic in the Gaussian sense, whereas a typical operator of the form “diagonal with coefficients of modulus 1 on the diagonal plus backward unilateral weighted shift” is ergodic but has only countably many unimodular eigenvalues; in particular, it is ergodic but not ergodic in the Gaussian sense. (iii) There exist Hilbert space operators which are chaotic and U-frequently hypercyclic but not frequently hypercyclic, Hilbert space operators which are chaotic and frequently hypercyclic but not ergodic, and Hilbert space operators which are chaotic and topologically mixing but not U-frequently hypercyclic. We complement our results by investigating the descriptive complexity of some natural classes of operators defined by dynamical properties.

Weakly Modular Graphs and Nonpositive Curvature
Author: Jérémie Chalopin
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470443627
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 85
Book Description
This article investigates structural, geometrical, and topological characteri-zations and properties of weakly modular graphs and of cell complexes derived from them. The unifying themes of our investigation are various “nonpositive cur-vature” and “local-to-global” properties and characterizations of weakly modular graphs and their subclasses. Weakly modular graphs have been introduced as a far-reaching common generalization of median graphs (and more generally, of mod-ular and orientable modular graphs), Helly graphs, bridged graphs, and dual polar graphs occurring under different disguises (1–skeletons, collinearity graphs, covering graphs, domains, etc.) in several seemingly-unrelated fields of mathematics: * Metric graph theory * Geometric group theory * Incidence geometries and buildings * Theoretical computer science and combinatorial optimization We give a local-to-global characterization of weakly modular graphs and their sub-classes in terms of simple connectedness of associated triangle-square complexes and specific local combinatorial conditions. In particular, we revisit characterizations of dual polar graphs by Cameron and by Brouwer-Cohen. We also show that (disk-)Helly graphs are precisely the clique-Helly graphs with simply connected clique complexes. With l1–embeddable weakly modular and sweakly modular graphs we associate high-dimensional cell complexes, having several strong topological and geometrical properties (contractibility and the CAT(0) property). Their cells have a specific structure: they are basis polyhedra of even –matroids in the first case and orthoscheme complexes of gated dual polar subgraphs in the second case. We resolve some open problems concerning subclasses of weakly modular graphs: we prove a Brady-McCammond conjecture about CAT(0) metric on the orthoscheme.

The 2D Compressible Euler Equations in Bounded Impermeable Domains with Corners
Author: Paul Godin
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470444216
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
We study 2D compressible Euler flows in bounded impermeable domains whose boundary is smooth except for corners. We assume that the angles of the corners are small enough. Then we obtain local (in time) existence of solutions which keep the L2 Sobolev regularity of their Cauchy data, provided the external forces are sufficiently regular and suitable compatibility conditions are satisfied. Such a result is well known when there is no corner. Our proof relies on the study of associated linear problems. We also show that our results are rather sharp: we construct counterexamples in which the smallness condition on the angles is not fulfilled and which display a loss of L2 Sobolev regularity with respect to the Cauchy data and the external forces.

Traffic Distributions and Independence: Permutation Invariant Random Matrices and the Three Notions of Independence
Author: Camille Male
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
ISBN: 1470442981
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 88
Book Description
Voiculescu's notion of asymptotic free independence is known for a large class of random matrices including independent unitary invariant matrices. This notion is extended for independent random matrices invariant in law by conjugation by permutation matrices. This fact leads naturally to an extension of free probability, formalized under the notions of traffic probability. The author first establishes this construction for random matrices and then defines the traffic distribution of random matrices, which is richer than the $^*$-distribution of free probability. The knowledge of the individual traffic distributions of independent permutation invariant families of matrices is sufficient to compute the limiting distribution of the join family. Under a factorization assumption, the author calls traffic independence the asymptotic rule that plays the role of independence with respect to traffic distributions. Wigner matrices, Haar unitary matrices and uniform permutation matrices converge in traffic distributions, a fact which yields new results on the limiting $^*$-distributions of several matrices the author can construct from them. Then the author defines the abstract traffic spaces as non commutative probability spaces with more structure. She proves that at an algebraic level, traffic independence in some sense unifies the three canonical notions of tensor, free and Boolean independence. A central limiting theorem is stated in this context, interpolating between the tensor, free and Boolean central limit theorems.

C-Projective Geometry
Author: David M Calderbank
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
ISBN: 1470443007
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
The authors develop in detail the theory of (almost) c-projective geometry, a natural analogue of projective differential geometry adapted to (almost) complex manifolds. The authors realise it as a type of parabolic geometry and describe the associated Cartan or tractor connection. A Kähler manifold gives rise to a c-projective structure and this is one of the primary motivations for its study. The existence of two or more Kähler metrics underlying a given c-projective structure has many ramifications, which the authors explore in depth. As a consequence of this analysis, they prove the Yano–Obata Conjecture for complete Kähler manifolds: if such a manifold admits a one parameter group of c-projective transformations that are not affine, then it is complex projective space, equipped with a multiple of the Fubini-Study metric.

The Irreducible Subgroups of Exceptional Algebraic Groups
Author: Adam R. Thomas
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470443376
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
This paper is a contribution to the study of the subgroup structure of excep-tional algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Following Serre, a closed subgroup of a semisimple algebraic group G is called irreducible if it lies in no proper parabolic subgroup of G. In this paper we com-plete the classification of irreducible connected subgroups of exceptional algebraic groups, providing an explicit set of representatives for the conjugacy classes of such subgroups. Many consequences of this classification are also given. These include results concerning the representations of such subgroups on various G-modules: for example, the conjugacy classes of irreducible connected subgroups are determined by their composition factors on the adjoint module of G, with one exception. A result of Liebeck and Testerman shows that each irreducible connected sub-group X of G has only finitely many overgroups and hence the overgroups of X form a lattice. We provide tables that give representatives of each conjugacy class of connected overgroups within this lattice structure. We use this to prove results concerning the subgroup structure of G: for example, when the characteristic is 2, there exists a maximal connected subgroup of G containing a conjugate of every irreducible subgroup A1 of G.
