We analyze the limit of the spectrum of a geometric Dirac-type operator under a collapse with bounded diameter and bounded sectional curvature. In the case of a smooth limit space B, we show that the limit of the spectrum is given by the spectrum of a certain first-order differential operator on B, which can be constructed using superconnections. In the case of a general limit space X , we expr...

We study the difference-difference Lotka-Volterra equations in p-adic number space and its p-adic valuation version. We point out that the structure of the space given by taking the ultra-discrete limit is the same as that of the p-adic valuation space. Since ultra-discrete limit can be regarded as a classical limit of a quantum object, it implies that a correspondence between classical and qua...

We show that the Bruschlinsky group with the winding order is a homeomorphism invariant for a class of one-dimensional inverse limit spaces. In particular we show that if a presentation of an inverse limit space satisfies the Simplicity Condition, then the Bruschlinsky group with the winding order of the inverse limit space is a dimension group and is a quotient of the dimension group with the ...
