Kirby Calculus In Manifolds With Boundary, Justin Roberts Jan 1997

Kirby Calculus In Manifolds With Boundary, Justin Roberts

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Suppose there are two framed links in a compact, connected 3-manifold (possibly with boundary, or non-orientable) such that the associated 3-manifolds obtained by surgery are homeomorphic (relative to their common boundary, if there is one.) How are the links related? Kirby's theorem gives the answer when the manifold is S^3, and Fenn and Rourke extended it to the case of any closed orientable 3-manifold, or S^1 \tilde{\times} S^2. The purpose of this note is to give the answer in the general case, using only minor modifications of Kirby's original proof.


On The Curves Of Constant Breadth In E^4 Space, Abdullah Mağden, Ömer Köse Jan 1997

On The Curves Of Constant Breadth In E^4 Space, Abdullah Mağden, Ömer Köse

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, the concepts concerning the space curves of constant breadth were extended to E^4 -space. The integral of third curvature of the curve was obtained as (bak) \sigmads = 2k7\pi(k E Z) . In addition, the relation (bak) g(\kappa, \tau, \sigma)ds = O was obtained between the curvatures of curves of constant breadth in E^4 . Key words and phrases: Curvature, Constant Breadth, Integral characterization of Curve, Spherical Curves.


Unique Factorisation For Commutative Rings Without Identity, A. G. Ağargün, C.R. Fletcher Jan 1997

Unique Factorisation For Commutative Rings Without Identity, A. G. Ağargün, C.R. Fletcher

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This paper concerns the unique factorisation property in commutative rings not necessarily with identity. We give a new definition of irreducibility and associates in a commutative ring with 1 (crwl), and define a UFR R in terms of a monomorphism from R into a crwl. This becomes equivalent to the definition in [3] when R has an identity. We generalize results on direct sums and direct summands. By our definition we have new members of the family of UFR's.


Differentiable Functions And The Generators On A Hilbert-Lie Group, Erdal Coşkun Jan 1997

Differentiable Functions And The Generators On A Hilbert-Lie Group, Erdal Coşkun

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

A convolution semigroup plays an important role İn the theory of probability measure on Lie groups. The basic problem is that one wants to express a semigroup as a Lévy-Khinckine formula. If (\mu_t)_{t\epsilonR*_+} is a continuous semigroup of probability + measures on a Hilbert-Lie group G, then we define T{\mu_t}f:=\integral f_a\mu_t(da) (f\epsilonC_u(G),t>0 It is apparent that (\mu_t)_t{t\epsilonR*_+} is a contİnuous operator semigroup on the space + C_u ( G) with the İnfinitesimal generator N. The generatİng functional A of this semigroup is defined by Aƒ := Iim_t-->0 1/t(T_{\mu_t}f(e) - f(e). We have the problem of consliuction of a …

A Note On Finite Hyperbolic Planes Obtained From Projektive Planes, Ş. Olgun, İ. Özgür, İ. Günaltili Jan 1997

A Note On Finite Hyperbolic Planes Obtained From Projektive Planes, Ş. Olgun, İ. Özgür, İ. Günaltili

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let \Pi be a finite projective plane of order n and \cal be a set, \cal = m, of any lines of \Pi which contains three non-concurrent lines. Consider the hyperbolic plane \Pi_m obtained from \Pi by removing all lines (including all points on them) of \cal. In this paper, we obtain larger values than the known maximum value of m and determine the linne classes of some hyperbolic planes of type \Pi_m. Furthermore we give an answer to a question in Bumcrot [1] about hyperbolic planes containing two-point liens.

On The Solution Of The E.P.D. Equation Using Finite Integral Transformations, Neşe Dernek

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, a solution is given for the following initial boundary value problem: \Delta=u_{tt}+k/t+u_t+g(x, t) (t>0) u(0, t)=u(a, t)=0 u(x, 0)=f(x), u_t(x, 0)=0 where x, a \epsilon R^n, t is the time variable, k < 1, k ? -1, -2, -3, . . . is a real parameter, \Delta is the n dimensional Laplace operator, f and g real analytic functions. The equation in this problem is known as the nonhomogeneous Euler-Poisson-Darboux (E.P.D.) Equation. The solution is obtained using finite integral transformation technique and is the sum of two uniformly and absolutely convergent power series.

On Some Bounds For The Solutions Of The Semi-Discretized Time-Dependent Ginzburg-Landau Equations, Erhan Coşkun Jan 1997

On Some Bounds For The Solutions Of The Semi-Discretized Time-Dependent Ginzburg-Landau Equations, Erhan Coşkun

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We study the two-dimensional system of Time-Dependent Ginzburg-Landau Equations (TDGL) for modeling a thin film of superconductor subject to a uniform magnetic field. We discretize the TDGL for the space variables using bond variables and staggered grid partitioning technique. By investigating the temporal evolution of semi-discrete Helmholtz enery functional and that of Semi-discretized TDGL, we provide bounds for some observable physical quantities of interest such as superelectron density, supercurrent density, charge density, electric field, and induced magnetic field.

Let R be a prime ring. Let \sigma , \tau be two homomorphisms and d be a (\sigma,\tau)-derivation of R.

The Rank And The Crank Modulo 5, A. Bülent Eki̇n Jan 1997

The Rank And The Crank Modulo 5, A. Bülent Eki̇n

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let p(n) denote the number of partitions of n . Ramanujan's partition congruences are p(5n + 4) , p(7n + 5) and p(11n + 6) = mod 5, 7, and 11, respectively. These have been proved in number of ways. Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer proved the congruences and some more relations about partition İn the case of mod5 and 7 in terms of rank, Garvan proved them in three cases in terms of crank. In this study, we give an another proof of their results in the case of mod5 by using the theory of modular forms. Although our method is …

A (--86)-Sphere In The K3 Surface, Sergey Finashin, Grigory Mikhalkin Jan 1997

A (--86)-Sphere In The K3 Surface, Sergey Finashin, Grigory Mikhalkin

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Consider the self-intersection number [\Sigma].[\Sigma] of a 2-dimensional sphere \Sigma embedded into a K3 surface. Since a K3 surface is spin, [\Sigma].[\Sigma] is even and by Gauge theoretical arguments [\Sigma].[\Sigma]\le 0. No other restriction on [\Sigma].[\Sigma] is known. It is a problem 4.105(D) from the Kirby list \cite{K} to determine the possible values of [\Sigma].[\Sigma]. This paper shows that the even numbers between 0 and -86 do appear as [\Sigma].[\Sigma].


The Hardy -Littlewood-Sobolev Inequality For Non-Isotropic Riesz Potentials, İnan Çinar Jan 1997

The Hardy -Littlewood-Sobolev Inequality For Non-Isotropic Riesz Potentials, İnan Çinar

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this study the inequality of Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev type are established for non-isotropic generalized Riesz potential depending on \lambda -distance. In this paper we establish analogues of the well known Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality (see[3]) for Riesz potentials with non-isotropic kernel depended on \lambda distance. Note that different problems for convolution type integrals with kernels, depending on \lambda-distance were considered in [1] and [2].
