1. Formulae for genera, volumes, class numbers Throughout these notes, we shall use D to denote the product of an even number (possibly zero) of distinct primes, and D′ the product of an odd number of distinct primes. Thus D (resp. D′) is the discriminant of a unique indefinite (resp. definite) rational quaternion algebra B/Q of discriminant D (resp. D′). Recall that the discriminant map induce...

abstract leafy vegetables such as lettuce are more susceptible to post harvest losses, thus application desirable treatments can be recommendable. generally, type of packaging, such as modified atmosphere packaging (map) and wrapping can considerably suppress post harvest loss of horticultural products. in this study, the effects of polypropylene film (thickness 30 and 40 micron) wrapping and m...

Let R a be countable ergodic equivalence relation of type II1 on a standard probability space (X,μ). The group Out R of outer automorphisms of R consists of all invertible Borel measure preserving maps of the space which map R-classes to R-classes modulo those which preserve almost every R-class. We analyze the group Out R for relations R generated by actions of higher rank lattices, providing ...

We consider volume-preserving perturbations of the time-one map of the geodesic flow of a compact surface with negative curvature. We show that if the Liouville measure has Lebesgue disintegration along the center foliation then the perturbation is itself the time-one map of a smooth volume-preserving flow, and that otherwise the disintegration is necessarily atomic.

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph whose vertices and edges are weighted by two functions. In this paper we shall define and calculate entropy of a dynamical system on weights of the graph $G$, by using the weights of vertices and edges of $G$. We examine the conditions under which entropy of the dynamical system is zero, possitive or $+infty$. At the end it is shown that, for $rin [0,+infty]$, t...

Let n be a positive integer and let n = {1, . . . , n}. Let R be the set of all oneto-one maps σ with domain I (σ ) ⊆ n and range J (σ) ⊆ n. If i ∈ I (σ ) let iσ denote the image of i under σ . There is an associative product (σ, τ ) → στ on R defined by composition of maps: i(στ)= (iσ )τ if i ∈ I (σ ) and iσ ∈ I (τ ). Thus the domain I (στ) consists of all i ∈ I (σ ) such that iσ ∈ I (τ ). The...

In this paper we study existence of Normally Hyperbolic Invariant Laminations (NHIL) for a nearly integrable system given by the product of the pendulum and the rotator perturbed with a small coupling between the two. This example was introduced by Arnold [1]. Using a separatrix map, introduced in a low dimensional case by Zaslavskii-Filonenko [61] and studied in a multidimensional case by Tres...
