Book Description
The authors consider a generic configuration of regions, consisting of a collection of distinct compact regions in which may be either regions with smooth boundaries disjoint from the others or regions which meet on their piecewise smooth boundaries in a generic way. They introduce a skeletal linking structure for the collection of regions which simultaneously captures the regions' individual shapes and geometric properties as well as the “positional geometry” of the collection. The linking structure extends in a minimal way the individual “skeletal structures” on each of the regions. This allows the authors to significantly extend the mathematical methods introduced for single regions to the configuration of regions.

Research in Shape Analysis
Author: Asli Genctav
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319770667
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Based on the second Women in Shape (WiSH) workshop held in Sirince, Turkey in June 2016, these proceedings offer the latest research on shape modeling and analysis and their applications. The 10 peer-reviewed articles in this volume cover a broad range of topics, including shape representation, shape complexity, and characterization in solving image-processing problems. While the first six chapters establish understanding in the theoretical topics, the remaining chapters discuss important applications such as image segmentation, registration, image deblurring, and shape patterns in digital fabrication. The authors in this volume are members of the WiSH network and their colleagues, and most were involved in the research groups formed at the workshop. This volume sheds light on a variety of shape analysis methods and their applications, and researchers and graduate students will find it to be an invaluable resource for further research in the area.

Handbook of Geometry and Topology of Singularities I
Author: José Luis Cisneros Molina
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030530612
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 616
Book Description
This volume consists of ten articles which provide an in-depth and reader-friendly survey of some of the foundational aspects of singularity theory. Authored by world experts, the various contributions deal with both classical material and modern developments, covering a wide range of topics which are linked to each other in fundamental ways. Singularities are ubiquitous in mathematics and science in general. Singularity theory interacts energetically with the rest of mathematics, acting as a crucible where different types of mathematical problems interact, surprising connections are born and simple questions lead to ideas which resonate in other parts of the subject. This is the first volume in a series which aims to provide an accessible account of the state-of-the-art of the subject, its frontiers, and its interactions with other areas of research. The book is addressed to graduate students and newcomers to the theory, as well as to specialists who can use it as a guidebook.

Boundary Conditions and Subelliptic Estimates for Geometric Kramers-Fokker-Planck Operators on Manifolds with Boundaries
Author: Francis Nier
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470428024
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
This article is concerned with the maximal accretive realizations of geometric Kramers-Fokker-Planck operators on manifolds with boundaries. A general class of boundary conditions is introduced which ensures the maximal accretivity and some global subelliptic estimates. Those estimates imply nice spectral properties as well as exponential decay properties for the associated semigroup. Admissible boundary conditions cover a wide range of applications for the usual scalar Kramer-Fokker-Planck equation or Bismut's hypoelliptic laplacian.

Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470428067
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
This paper gives a systematic study of Sobolev, Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces on a noncommutative -torus (with a skew symmetric real -matrix). These spaces share many properties with their classical counterparts. The authors prove, among other basic properties, the lifting theorem for all these spaces and a Poincaré type inequality for Sobolev spaces.

The Maslov Index in Symplectic Banach Spaces
Author: Bernhelm Booß-Bavnbek
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470428008
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
The authors consider a curve of Fredholm pairs of Lagrangian subspaces in a fixed Banach space with continuously varying weak symplectic structures. Assuming vanishing index, they obtain intrinsically a continuously varying splitting of the total Banach space into pairs of symplectic subspaces. Using such decompositions the authors define the Maslov index of the curve by symplectic reduction to the classical finite-dimensional case. The authors prove the transitivity of repeated symplectic reductions and obtain the invariance of the Maslov index under symplectic reduction while recovering all the standard properties of the Maslov index. As an application, the authors consider curves of elliptic operators which have varying principal symbol, varying maximal domain and are not necessarily of Dirac type. For this class of operator curves, the authors derive a desuspension spectral flow formula for varying well-posed boundary conditions on manifolds with boundary and obtain the splitting formula of the spectral flow on partitioned manifolds.

Crossed Products by Hecke Pairs
Author: Rui Palma
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470428091
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
The author develops a theory of crossed products by actions of Hecke pairs , motivated by applications in non-abelian -duality. His approach gives back the usual crossed product construction whenever is a group and retains many of the aspects of crossed products by groups. The author starts by laying the -algebraic foundations of these crossed products by Hecke pairs and exploring their representation theory and then proceeds to study their different -completions. He establishes that his construction coincides with that of Laca, Larsen and Neshveyev whenever they are both definable and, as an application of his theory, he proves a Stone-von Neumann theorem for Hecke pairs which encompasses the work of an Huef, Kaliszewski and Raeburn.
