Intersection Numbers, Embedded Spheres And Geosphere Laminations For Free Groups., Suhas Pandit Dr.
Doctoral Theses
Topological and geometric methods have played a major role in the study of infinite groups since the time of Poincar´e and Klein, with the work of Nielsen, Dehn, Stallings and Gromov showing particularly deep connections with the topology of surfaces and three-manifolds. This is in part because a surface or a 3-manifold is essentially determined by its fundamental group, and has a geometric structure due to the Poincar´e-K¨obe-Klein uniformisation theorem for surfaces and Thurston’s geometrisation conjecture, which is now a theorem of Perelman, for 3-manifolds.A particularly fruitful instance of such an interplay is the relation between intersection numbers of simple …
Normal Surfaces And Heegaard Splittings Of 3-Manifolds., Tejas Kalelkar Dr.
Normal Surfaces And Heegaard Splittings Of 3-Manifolds., Tejas Kalelkar Dr.
Doctoral Theses
This thesis deals with various questions regarding normal surfaces and Heegaard splittings of 3-manifolds.Chapter 1The first chapter is divided into two parts. In the first, we give an outline of normal surface theory and mention some of its important applications. The second part gives an overview of the theory of Heegaard splitting surfaces and a few of its applications. None of the material covered in this chapter is original and it is meant solely as an exposition of known results.Chapter 2In this chapter, we give a lower bound on the Euler characteristic of a normal surface, a topological invariant, in …
Isomorphism Of Schwartz Spaces Under Fourier Transform., Joydip Jana Dr.
Isomorphism Of Schwartz Spaces Under Fourier Transform., Joydip Jana Dr.
Doctoral Theses
Classical Fourier analysis derives much of its power from the fact that there are three function spaces whose images under the Fourier transform can be exactly determined. They are the Schwartz space, the L2 space and the space of all C ∞ functions of compact support. The determination of the image is obtained from the definition in the case of Schwartz space, through the Plancherel theorem for the L 2space and through the Paley-Wiener theorem for the other space.In harmonic analysis of semisimple Lie groups, function spaces on various restricted set-ups are of interest. Among the multitude of these spaces …
Homogeneous Operators In The Cowen-Douglas Class., Subrata Shyam Roy Dr.
Homogeneous Operators In The Cowen-Douglas Class., Subrata Shyam Roy Dr.
Doctoral Theses
Although, we have used techniques developed in the paper of Cowen-Douglas [18, 20], a systematic account of Hilbert space operators using a variety of tools from several different areas of mathematics is given in the book [26]. This book provides, what the authors call, a sheaf model for a large class of commuting Hilbert space operators. It is likely that these ideas will play a significant role in the future development of the topics discussed here.

Spectral Analysis And Synthesis For Radial Sections Of Homogenous Vector Bundles On Certain Noncompath Riemannian Symmetric Spaces., Sanjoy Pusti Dr.
Doctoral Theses
We consider two classical theorems of real analysis which deals with translation invariant subspaces of integrable and smooth functions on R respectively. The first one is a theorem of Norbert Wiener [63] which states that if the Fourier transform of a function f ∈ L 1 (R) has no real zeros then the finite linear combinations of translations f(x − a) of f with complex coefficients form a dense subspace in L 1 (R), equivalently, span{g ∗ f | g ∈ L 1 (R)} is dense in L 1 (R). This theorem is well known as the Wiener-Tauberian Theorem (WTT). …
