چکیده

2. Projective Tensors. Theorems of the projective geometry of paths appear to have their statement in terms of what may be called projective tensors, i. e. tensors which are independent of the particular set of functions T\^ defining the paths. We shall show how a set of projective tensors may be derived by covariant differentiation from an w-uple of mutually independent vectors. Let h(a)i denote an w-uple of independent covariant vectors. Then the determinant

Nonrevisiting Paths on Surfaces

AbstraeL The nonrevisiting path conjecture for polytopes, which is equivalent to the Hirsch conjecture, is open. However, for surfaces, the nonrevisiting path conjecture is known to be true for polyhedral maps on the sphere, projective plane, toms, and a Klein bottle. Barnette has provided counterexamples on the orientable surface of genus 8 and nonorientable surface of genus 16. In this note t...

Triple factorization of non-abelian groups by two maximal subgroups

The triple factorization of a group $G$ has been studied recently showing that $G=ABA$ for some proper subgroups $A$ and $B$ of $G$, the definition of rank-two geometry and rank-two coset geometry which is closely related to the triple factorization was defined and calculated for abelian groups. In this paper we study two infinite classes of non-abelian finite groups $D_{2n}$ and $PSL(2,2^{n})$...

The Principles of Conservation-based Organization of Historic Paths Through Benchmarking Method on Organization Experience of Iran and Other Countries (Case Study: The Organization of a Historic Roadway and Pathway in Isfahan under Status Assessment)

Paths are the most important urban spaces and account for the city and its historic district’s main structure. In the past, the geometry of historic cities revolved around old bazar rows and passages. However, with the advent of motorized vehicles and subsequent chess roads in historical texture, organic geometry and hierarchy of paths net, integrity and structure of historic district were disr...

A contact path geometry is a family of paths in a contact manifold each of which is everywhere tangent to the contact distribution and such that given a point and a one-dimensional subspace of the contact distribution at that point there is a unique path of the family passing through the given point and tangent to the given subspace. A contact projective structure is a contact path geometry the...
