Harmonic morphisms and shear-free ray congruences
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe the relationship between complex-valued harmonic morphisms from Minkowski 4-space and the shear-free ray congruences of mathematical physics. Then we show how a horizontally conformal submersion on a domain of R 3 gives the boundary values at infinity of a complex-valued harmonic morphism on hyperbolic 4-space.

Harmonic morphisms, conformal foliations and shear-free ray congruences
Equivalences between conformal foliations on Euclidean 3-space, Hermitian structures on Euclidean 4-space, shear-free ray congruences on Minkowski 4-space, and holomorphic foliations on complex 4-space are explained geometrically and twistorially; these are used to show that 1) any real-analytic complex-valued harmonic morphism without critical points defined on an open subset of Minkowski spac...
متن کامل2 Shear - Free Ray Congruences
A shear-free ray congruence on Minkowski space is a 3-parameter family of null geodesics along which Lie transport of a complementary 2dimensional spacelike subspace (called the screen space) is conformal. Such congruences are defined by complex analytic surfaces in the associated twistor space CP 3 and are the basis of the construction of massless fields. On a more general space-time, it is un...
متن کاملNull Geodesic Congruences, Asymptotically-Flat Spacetimes and Their Physical Interpretation
A priori, there is nothing very special about shear-free or asymptotically shear-free null geodesic congruences. Surprisingly, however, they turn out to possess a large number of fascinating geometric properties and to be closely related, in the context of general relativity, to a variety of physically significant effects. It is the purpose of this paper to try to fully develop these issues. Th...
متن کاملFuzzy homomorphisms of algebras
In this paper we consider fuzzy relations compatible with algebraic operations, which are called fuzzy relational morphisms. In particular, we aim our attention to those fuzzy relational morphisms which are uniform fuzzy relations, called uniform fuzzy relational morphisms, and those which are partially uniform F -functions, called fuzzy homomorphisms. Both uniform fuzzy relations and partially...
متن کاملOptical klystron FEL scheme for x-ray coherent harmonic generation at ISLF storage ring
The possibility of inserting an optical klystron on the storage ring of an Iranian Light Source Facility as a Synchrotron Radiation Free electron Laser for coherence harmonic generation in the soft x-ray spectrum has been studied. The study has been performed using the 3D FEL simulation code GENESIS 1.3 and in accordance with the available characteristic parameters of ISLF. Different potential ...
