The authors define a class of random measures, spatially independent martingales, which we view as a natural generalization of the canonical random discrete set, and which includes as special cases many variants of fractal percolation and Poissonian cut-outs. The authors pair the random measures with deterministic families of parametrized measures , and show that under some natural checkable conditions, a.s. the mass of the intersections is Hölder continuous as a function of . This continuity phenomenon turns out to underpin a large amount of geometric information about these measures, allowing us to unify and substantially generalize a large number of existing results on the geometry of ra...
The authors construct Heegaard Floer theory for 3-manifolds with connected boundary. The theory associates to an oriented, parametrized two-manifold a differential graded algebra. For a three-manifold with parametrized boundary, the invariant comes in two different versions, one of which (type D) is a module over the algebra and the other of which (type A) is an A∞ module. Both are well-defined up to chain homotopy equivalence. For a decomposition of a 3-manifold into two pieces, the A∞ tensor product of the type D module of one piece and the type A module from the other piece is ^HF of the glued manifold. As a special case of the construction, the authors specialize to the case of three-manifolds with torus boundary. This case can be used to give another proof of the surgery exact triangle for ^HF. The authors relate the bordered Floer homology of a three-manifold with torus boundary with the knot Floer homology of a filling.
In this paper the author studies elliptic PDEs on compact Gromov-Hausdorff limit spaces of Riemannian manifolds with lower Ricci curvature bounds. In particular the author establishes continuities of geometric quantities, which include solutions of Poisson's equations, eigenvalues of Schrödinger operators, generalized Yamabe constants and eigenvalues of the Hodge Laplacian, with respect to the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. The author applies these to the study of second-order differential calculus on such limit spaces.
This volume collects thirteen expository or survey articles on topics including Fractal Geometry, Analysis of Fractals, Multifractal Analysis, Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems, Probability and Stochastic Analysis, written by the leading experts in their respective fields. The articles are based on papers presented at the International Conference on Advances on Fractals and Related Topics, held on December 10-14, 2012 at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The volume offers insights into a number of exciting, cutting-edge developments in the area of fractals, which has close ties to and applications in other areas such as analysis, geometry, number theory, probability and mathematical physics.
This contributed volume collects papers based on courses and talks given at the 2017 CIMPA school Harmonic Analysis, Geometric Measure Theory and Applications, which took place at the University of Buenos Aires in August 2017. These articles highlight recent breakthroughs in both harmonic analysis and geometric measure theory, particularly focusing on their impact on image and signal processing. The wide range of expertise present in these articles will help readers contextualize how these breakthroughs have been instrumental in resolving deep theoretical problems. Some topics covered include: Gabor frames Falconer distance problem Hausdorff dimension Sparse inequalities Fractional Brownian motion Fourier analysis in geometric measure theory This volume is ideal for applied and pure mathematicians interested in the areas of image and signal processing. Electrical engineers and statisticians studying these fields will also find this to be a valuable resource.
This paper is concerned with a complete asymptotic analysis as $E \to 0$ of the Munk equation $\partial _x\psi -E \Delta ^2 \psi = \tau $ in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbf R^2$, supplemented with boundary conditions for $\psi $ and $\partial _n \psi $. This equation is a simple model for the circulation of currents in closed basins, the variables $x$ and $y$ being respectively the longitude and the latitude. A crude analysis shows that as $E \to 0$, the weak limit of $\psi $ satisfies the so-called Sverdrup transport equation inside the domain, namely $\partial _x \psi ^0=\tau $, while boundary layers appear in the vicinity of the boundary.
The authors provide a complete classification of globally generated vector bundles with first Chern class $c_1 \leq 5$ one the projective plane and with $c_1 \leq 4$ on the projective $n$-space for $n \geq 3$. This reproves and extends, in a systematic manner, previous results obtained for $c_1 \leq 2$ by Sierra and Ugaglia [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 213 (2009), 2141-2146], and for $c_1 = 3$ by Anghel and Manolache [Math. Nachr. 286 (2013), 1407-1423] and, independently, by Sierra and Ugaglia [J. Pure Appl. Algebra 218 (2014), 174-180]. It turns out that the case $c_1 = 4$ is much more involved than the previous cases, especially on the projective 3-space. Among the bundles appearing in our classification one can find the Sasakura rank 3 vector bundle on the projective 4-space (conveniently twisted). The authors also propose a conjecture concerning the classification of globally generated vector bundles with $c_1 \leq n - 1$ on the projective $n$-space. They verify the conjecture for $n \leq 5$.
Although there is no precise definition of a “fractal”, it is usually understood to be a set whose smaller parts, when magnified, resemble the whole. Self-similar and self-affine sets are those for which this resemblance is precise and given by a contracting similitude or affine transformation. The present book is devoted to this most basic class of fractal objects. The book contains both introductory material for beginners and more advanced topics, which continue to be the focus of active research. Among the latter are self-similar sets and measures with overlaps, including the much-studied infinite Bernoulli convolutions. Self-affine systems pose additional challenges; their study is often based on ergodic theory and dynamical systems methods. In the last twenty years there have been many breakthroughs in these fields, and our aim is to give introduction to some of them, often in the simplest nontrivial cases. The book is intended for a wide audience of mathematicians interested in fractal geometry, including students. Parts of the book can be used for graduate and even advanced undergraduate courses.
In the present work the author generalizes the construction of monopole Floer homology due to Kronheimer and Mrowka to the case of a gradient flow with Morse-Bott singularities. Focusing then on the special case of a three-manifold equipped equipped with a structure which is isomorphic to its conjugate, the author defines the counterpart in this context of Manolescu's recent Pin(2)-equivariant Seiberg-Witten-Floer homology. In particular, the author provides an alternative approach to his disproof of the celebrated Triangulation conjecture.
