Elementary Galois Theory

  • Type: Book

  • Published: 2024-09-25

  • Publisher: Springer

Why is the squaring of the circle, why is the division of angles with compass and ruler impossible? Why are there general solution formulas for polynomial equations of degree 2, 3 and 4, but not for degree 5 or higher? This textbook deals with such classical questions in an elementary way in the context of Galois theory. It thus provides a classical introduction and at the same time deals with applications. The point of view of a constructive mathematician is consistently adopted: To prove the existence of a mathematical object, an algorithmic construction of that object is always given. Some statements are therefore formulated somewhat more cautiously than is classically customary; some pro...

Chern Numbers and Rozansky-Witten Invariants of Compact Hyper-K„hler Manifolds

This unique book deals with the theory of Rozansky?Witten invariants, introduced by L Rozansky and E Witten in 1997. It covers the latest developments in an area where research is still very active and promising. With a chapter on compact hyper-K„hler manifolds, the book includes a detailed discussion on the applications of the general theory to the two main example series of compact hyper-K„hler manifolds: the Hilbert schemes of points on a K3 surface and the generalized Kummer varieties.

Combinatorial properties of ladders, generalised Pont-Neuf and caterpillar diagrams in the space of coloured open Jacobi diagrams

This doctoral thesis is a contribution to the analysis of the combinatorics of arbitrarily coloured open Jacobi diagrams and their relationship to Vassiliev invariants. We examine J. Kneissler's five ladder relations and state them in a much more precise way. We also analyse their role in the space of colored open Jacobi diagrams. Then, we establish a sort of machinery - a language together with a toolbox of lemmata, theorems and definitions to build, manipulate and analyse coloured open Jacobi diagrams. With this, we examine the role of generalised Pont-Neuf diagrams and caterpillar diagrams. Lastly we transfer this to the uncolored case, which allows us to show that the space of open Jacobi diagrams up to first Betti number five is already contained in the module of caterpillar diagrams, considered as a module of a certain subset of Vogels' algebra. This means that Vassiliev invariants associated to these degrees do not detect knot orientation.

Extension Groups of Tautological Sheaves on Hilbert Schemes of Points on Surfaces

In this thesis cohomological invariants of tensor products of tautological objects in the derived category of Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces are studied. The main tool is the Bridgeland-King-Reid-Haiman equivalence between the derived category of the Hilbert scheme and the equivariant derived category of the cartesian power of the surface. The work of Scala on this topic is further developed leading to a new description of the image of tensor products of tautological bundles under the BKRH equivalence. This description leads to formulas for the Euler characteristics of triple tensor products of tautological objects for arbitrary n and for arbitrary tensor products in the case n=2. Furthermore a formula for the extension groups between tautological objects is proven and the Yoneda product is described.

Derived Manifolds from Functors of Points

In this thesis a functorial approach to the category of derived manifolds is developed. We use a similar approach as Demazure and Gabriel did when they described the category of schemes as a full subcategory of the category of sheaves on the big Zariski site. Their work is further developed leading to the definition of C#-schemes and derived manifolds as certain sheaves on appropriate big sites. The new description of C#-schemes and derived manifolds via functors is compared to the previous approaches via locally ringed spaces given by D. Joyce and D. Spivak. Furthermore, it is proven that both approaches lead to equivalent categories.

D-modules: Local formal convolution of elementary formal meromorphic connections

According to the classical theorem of Levelt-Turrittin-Malgrange and its refined version, developed by Claude Sabbah, any meromorphic connection over the field of formal Laurent series in one variable can be decomposed in a direct sum of so called elementary formal meromorphic connections. Changing the perspective, one can also study operations that can be carried out with such special differential modules. There are already formulas for the tensor product or the local formal Fourier transform, for example. This thesis analyses the local formal convolution (the multiplicative case as well as the additive case) of two elementary formal meromorphic connections and how the convolution can itself be decomposed into a direct sum of elementary formal meromorphic connections again.

K3 Surfaces and Their Moduli

  • Type: Book

  • Publisher: Birkhäuser

This book provides an overview of the latest developments concerning the moduli of K3 surfaces. It is aimed at algebraic geometers, but is also of interest to number theorists and theoretical physicists, and continues the tradition of related volumes like “The Moduli Space of Curves” and “Moduli of Abelian Varieties,” which originated from conferences on the islands Texel and Schiermonnikoog and which have become classics. K3 surfaces and their moduli form a central topic in algebraic geometry and arithmetic geometry, and have recently attracted a lot of attention from both mathematicians and theoretical physicists. Advances in this field often result from mixing sophisticated techni...

Geometry at the Frontier: Symmetries and Moduli Spaces of Algebraic Varieties

Articles in this volume are based on lectures given at three conferences on Geometry at the Frontier, held at the Universidad de la Frontera, Pucón, Chile in 2016, 2017, and 2018. The papers cover recent developments on the theory of algebraic varieties—in particular, of their automorphism groups and moduli spaces. They will be of interest to anyone working in the area, as well as young mathematicians and students interested in complex and algebraic geometry.

Objects, Structures, and Logics

This edited collection casts light on central issues within contemporary philosophy of mathematics such as the realism/anti-realism dispute; the relationship between logic and metaphysics; and the question of whether mathematics is a science of objects or structures. The discussions offered in the papers involve an in-depth investigation of, among other things, the notions of mathematical truth, proof, and grounding; and, often, a special emphasis is placed on considerations relating to mathematical practice. A distinguishing feature of the book is the multicultural nature of the community that has produced it. Philosophers, logicians, and mathematicians have all contributed high-quality articles which will prove valuable to researchers and students alike.
