Commutative Quartic P-Galois Extensions Over A Field Of Characteristic Not 2, Atsushi Nakajima Jan 2005

Commutative Quartic P-Galois Extensions Over A Field Of Characteristic Not 2, Atsushi Nakajima

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In [2], K. Kishimoto introduced the notion of P-Galois extensions and gave some fundamental properties of these extensions. P-Galois extensions relate Hopf Galois extensions, and the author treated these topics in [5]. Moreover, the cubic P-Galois extensions over a field were completely determined in [6]. Continuing [5] and [6], we classify commutative quartic P-Galois extensions over a field of characteristic not 2.

Maximal Oscillatory Singular Integrals With Kernels In L Log L(S^{N-1}), Ahmad Al-Salman Jan 2005

Maximal Oscillatory Singular Integrals With Kernels In L Log L(S^{N-1}), Ahmad Al-Salman

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we study the L^p mapping properties of a certain class of maximal oscillatory singular integral operators. We establish the L^p boundedness of our operators provided that their kernels belong to the natural space L log ^+L(S^{n-1}). Our result substantially improves a previously known result. Moreover, the approach developed in this paper can be applied to handle more general maximal oscillatory singular integral operators.

On Space Of Parabolic Potentials Associated With The Singular Heat Operator, Si̇nem Sezer, İlham A. Ali̇ev

Anisotropic spaces L_{p,\gamma}^{\alpha} of parabolic Bessel potentials, associated with the singular heat operator I-\Delta_{\gamma}+ \frac{\partial}{\partial t}, where \Delta_{\gamma} = \sum\limits_{k=1}^n \frac{\partial ^{2}}{\partial x_{k}^{2}} + \frac{2\gamma }{x_n}. \frac{\partial}{\partial x_n}, are introduced, and making use of special wavelet-type transform, a characterization of these spaces is obtained.


On Rough Singular Integrals Along Surfaces On Product Domains, Ahmad Al-Salman, Ali A. Al-Jarrah Jan 2005

On Rough Singular Integrals Along Surfaces On Product Domains, Ahmad Al-Salman, Ali A. Al-Jarrah

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we study a class of singular integrals along surfaces on product domains with kernels in L(log L)^2(S^{n-1} \times S^{m-1}). We formulate a general theorem concerning the L^p boundedness of these operators. As a consequence of this theorem we establish L^p estimates of several classes of operators whose L^p boundedness in the one parameter setting is known. The condition L(log L)^2(B^{n-1} \times S^{m-1}) is known to be an optimal size condition

On Graded Primary Ideals, Mashhoor Refai, Khaldoun Al-Zoubi Jan 2004

On Graded Primary Ideals, Mashhoor Refai, Khaldoun Al-Zoubi

Perelman's Monotonicity Formula And Applications, Natasa Sesum Jan 2004

Perelman's Monotonicity Formula And Applications, Natasa Sesum

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This article relies on [15] that the author wrote with Gang Tian and Xiaodong Wang. In view of Hamilton's important work on the Ricci flow and Perelman's paper on the Ricci flow where he developes the techniques that he will later use in completing Hamilton's program for the geometrization conjecture, there may be more interest in the area. We will also discuss the author's theorem which says that the curvature tensor stays uniformly bounded under the unnormalized Ricci flow in a finite time, if the curvatures are uniformly bounded. We will prove that in the case of a Kähler-Ricci flow …


Flops Of Crepant Resolutions, Anda Degeratu Jan 2004

Flops Of Crepant Resolutions, Anda Degeratu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let G be a finite subgroup of SL(3, \mathcal{C}) acting with an isolated singularity on \mathcal{C}^3. A crepant resolution of \mathcal{C}^3/G comes together with a set of tautological line bundles associated to each irreducible representation of G. In this note we give a formula for the triple product of the first Chern class of the tautological bundles in terms of both the geometry of the crepant resolution and the representation theory of G. From here we derive the way these triple products change when we perform a flop.


The Cross Curvature Flow Of 3-Manifolds With Negative Sectional Curvature, Bennett Chow, Richard S. Hamilton Jan 2004

The Cross Curvature Flow Of 3-Manifolds With Negative Sectional Curvature, Bennett Chow, Richard S. Hamilton

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We consider the cross curvature flow, an evolution equation of metrics on 3-manifolds. We establish short time existence when the sectional curvature has a sign. In the case of negative sectional curvature, we obtain some monotonicity formulas which support the conjecture that after normalization, for initial metrics on closed 3-manifolds with negative sectional curvature, the solution exists for all time and converges to a hyperbolic metric. This conjecture is still open at the present time.


Surgery Diagrams For Contact 3-Manifolds, Fan Ding, Hansjörg Geiges, Andras I. Stipsicz Jan 2004

Surgery Diagrams For Contact 3-Manifolds, Fan Ding, Hansjörg Geiges, Andras I. Stipsicz

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In two previous papers, the two first-named authors introduced a notion of contact r-surgery along Legendrian knots in contact 3-manifolds. They also showed how (at least in principle) to convert any contact r-surgery into a sequence of contact (\pm 1)-surgeries, and used this to prove that any (closed) contact 3-manifold can be obtained from the standard contact structure on S^3 by a sequence of such contact (\pm 1)-surgeries. In the present paper, we give a shorter proof of that result and a more explicit algorithm for turning a contact r-surgery into (\pm 1)-surgeries. We use this to give explicit surgery …


Quasipositivity Problem For 3-Braids, Stepan Yu. Orevkov Jan 2004

Quasipositivity Problem For 3-Braids, Stepan Yu. Orevkov

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

A braid is called quasipositive if it is a product of conjugates of standard generators of the braid group. We present an algorithm deciding if a given braid with three strings is quasipositive or not. The complexity (the time of work) of our algorithm is O(n^{k+1}) where n is the length of the word in standard generators representing the braid and k is the algebraic length of the braid. The algorithm is based on the Garside normal form. The problem of quasipositivity in braid groups is motivated by the topology of plane real algebraic curves (16th Hilbert's problem). In particular, …


Solution Of The Word Problem In The Singular Braid Group, Stepan Yu. Orevkov Jan 2004

Solution Of The Word Problem In The Singular Braid Group, Stepan Yu. Orevkov

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Singular braids are isotopy classes of smooth strings which are allowed to cross each other pairwise with distinct tangents. Under the usual multiplication of braids, they form a monoid. The singular braid group was introduced by Fenn-Keyman-Rourke as the quotient group of the singular braid monoid. We give a solution of the word problem for this group. It is obtained as a combination of the results by Fenn-Keyman-Rourke and some simple geometric considerations based on the mapping class interpretation of braids. Combined with Corran's normal form for the singular braid monoid, our algorithm provides a computable normal form for the …

Rate Of Convergence Of Durrmeyer Type Baskakov-Bezier Operators For Locally Bounded Functions, Vijay Gupta Jan 2004

Rate Of Convergence Of Durrmeyer Type Baskakov-Bezier Operators For Locally Bounded Functions, Vijay Gupta

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In the present paper, we introduce the Durrmeyer variant of Baskakov-Bezier operators B_{n,\alpha} (f,x), which is the modified form of Baskakov-Beta operators. Here we obtain an estimate on the rate of convergence of B_{n,\alpha} (f,x) for functions of bounded variation in terms of Chanturiya's modulus of variation. In the end we also propose an open problem for the readers.


An Algorithm To Recognise Small Seifert Fiber Spaces, J. Hyam Rubinstein Jan 2004

An Algorithm To Recognise Small Seifert Fiber Spaces, J. Hyam Rubinstein

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

The homeomorphism problem is, given two compact n-manifolds, is there an algorithm to decide if the manifolds are homeomorphic or not. The homeomorphism problem has been solved for many important classes of 3-manifolds - especially those with embedded 2-sided incompressible surfaces (cf [12], [15], [16]), which are called Haken manifolds. It is also well-known that the homeomorphism problem is easily solvable for two 3-manifolds which admit geometries in the sense of Thurston [36], [31]. Hence the recognition problem, to decide if a 3-manifold has a geometric structure, is a significant problem. The recognition problem has been solved for all geometric …


Radical Submodules And Uniform Dimension Of Modules, Patrick F. Smith Jan 2004

Radical Submodules And Uniform Dimension Of Modules, Patrick F. Smith

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We investigate the relations between a radical submodule N of a module M being a finite intersection of prime submodules of M and the factor module M/N having finite uniform dimension. It is proved that if N is a radical submodule of a module M over a ring R such that M/N has finite uniform dimension, then N is a finite intersection of prime submodules. The converse is false in general but is true if the ring R is fully left bounded left Goldie and the module M is finitely generated. It is further proved that, in general, if a …


On A Certain Class Of Bessel Integrals, Ali A. Al-Jarrah, A. Al-Momani Jan 2004

On A Certain Class Of Bessel Integrals, Ali A. Al-Jarrah, A. Al-Momani

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

There are many old results of integrals involving Bessel functions, currently available in handbooks, but we found no recourse in the well-known references to how they were established. In this paper, we attempt to have a clear way of proving some of these results. In fact, we consider a certain class of Bessel integrals where we prove that such integrals vanish under certain conditions. To this end some theorems regarding this class of integrals with their proofs are put forward. A computer algorithm is provided to implement some of our results. The result in this paper extend the work in …

Moments Equalities For Nonnegative Integer-Valued Random Variables, Mohamed I. Riffi Jan 2004

Moments Equalities For Nonnegative Integer-Valued Random Variables, Mohamed I. Riffi

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We present and prove two theorems about equalities for the nth moment of nonnegative integer-valued random variables. These equalities generalize the well known equality for the first moment of a nonnegative integer-valued random variable X in terms of its cumulative distribution function, or in terms of its tail distribution.


Modules Supplemented Relative To A Torsion Theory, M. Tamer Koşan, Abdullah Harmanci Jan 2004

Modules Supplemented Relative To A Torsion Theory, M. Tamer Koşan, Abdullah Harmanci

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

This article introduces the concept of a \tau-supplemented module as follows: Given a hereditary torsion theory in Mod R with associated torsion functor \tau, we say that a module M is \tau-supplemented when for every submodule N of M there exists a direct summand K of M such that K\leq N and N/K is \tau-torsion module. We present here some fundamental properties of this class of modules and study the decompositions of \tau-supplemented modules under certain conditions on modules. The question of which direct sum of \tau-supplemented R-modules are \tau-supplemented is treated here.
