R-MODULES FOR THE ALEXANDER COHOMOLOGY THEORY APPROVED: Major Professor
The Alexander Wallace Spanier cohomology theory associates with an arbitrary topological space an abelian group. In this paper, an arbitrary topological space is associated with an R-module. The construction of the R-module is similar to the Alexander Wallace Spanier construction of the abelian group. In Chapter I, the algebraic and topological material necessary to construct the theor'y is lis...
متن کاملProfessor Robert McNeill Alexander CBE FRS (1934-2016).
Robert McNeill Alexander, known to friends and colleagues as 'Neill', was a zoologist with an engineer's eye for how animals work. He used mathematical models to show how evolution has produced optimal designs. His skill was to choose appropriate models: realistic enough to contain the essence of a problem and yet simple enough to be tractable. He wrote fluently and easily: 23 books, 280 papers...
متن کاملthe archetype of mother: a never-ending story retold by poe
investigation the archetype of mother can help the reader to understand poes works, especially his fiction, better, if not fully. motivated by internal and external drives to get into the universe in its manifold form poe was impelled to art and, from various modes of art, to symbolism. how much was poe successful to produce works of art has been a matter of dispute among critics. however, ther...
15 صفحه اولThe Motivic Thom Isomorphism
The existence of a good theory of Thom isomorphisms in some rational category of mixed Tate motives would permit a nice interpolation between ideas of Kontsevich on deformation quantization, and ideas of Connes and Kreimer on a Galois theory of renormalization, mediated by Deligne’s ideas on motivic Galois groups.
متن کاملThe Symplectic Thom Conjecture
In this paper, we demonstrate a relation among Seiberg-Witten invariants which arises from embedded surfaces in four-manifolds whose self-intersection number is negative. These relations, together with Taubes’ basic theorems on the Seiberg-Witten invariants of symplectic manifolds, are then used to prove the Symplectic Thom Conjecture: a symplectic surface in a symplectic four-manifold is genus...
