Integrable Conformal Field Theory in Four Dimensions and Fourth-Rank Geometry
We consider the conformal properties of geometries described by higher-rank
line elements. A crucial role is played by the conformal Killing equation
(CKE). We introduce the concept of null-flat spaces in which the line element
can be written as . We then show that, for
null-flat spaces, the critical dimension, for which the CKE has infinitely many
solutions, is equal to the rank of the metric. Therefore, in order to construct
an integrable conformal field theory in 4 dimensions we need to rely on
fourth-rank geometry. We consider the simple model and show that it is an integrable conformal model in 4
dimensions. Furthermore, the associated symmetry group is .Comment: 17 pages, plain TE
The action of the diffeomorphism group on the space of immersions
We study the action of the diffeomorphism group \Diff(M) on the space of
proper immersions \Imm_{\text{prop}}(M,N) by composition from the right. We
show that smooth transversal slices exist through each orbit, that the quotient
space is Hausdorff and is stratified into smooth manifolds, one for each
conjugacy class of isotropy groups
A Gamma convergence approach to the critical Sobolev embedding in variable exponent spaces
In this paper, we study the critical Sobolev embeddings W1,p(.)(Ω)⊂Lp*(.)(Ω) for variable exponent Sobolev spaces from the point of view of the Γ-convergence. More precisely we determine the Γ-limit of subcritical approximation of the best constant associated with this embedding. As an application we provide a sufficient condition for the existence of extremals for the best constant.Fil: Fernandez Bonder, Julian. Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas.

Conservation laws, classical symmetries and exact solutions of the generalized KdV-Burgers-Kuramoto equation
For a generalized KdV-Burgers-Kuramoto equation we have studied conservation laws by using the multiplier method, and investigated its first-level and second level potential systems. Furthermore, the Lie point symmetries of the equation and the Lie point symmetries associated with the conserved vectors are determined. We obtain travellingwave reductions depending on the form of an arbitrary
function. We present some explicit solutions: soliton solutions, kinks and antikinks
General -position sets
The general -position number of a graph is the
cardinality of a largest set for which no three distinct vertices from
lie on a common geodesic of length at most . This new graph parameter
generalizes the well studied general position number. We first give some
results concerning the monotonic behavior of with respect to
the suitable values of . We show that the decision problem concerning
finding is NP-complete for any value of . The value of when is a path or a cycle is computed and a structural
characterization of general -position sets is shown. Moreover, we present
some relationships with other topics including strong resolving graphs and
dissociation sets. We finish our exposition by proving that is
infinite whenever is an infinite graph and is a finite integer.Comment: 16 page
Stabilized Schemes for the Hydrostatic Stokes Equations
Some new stable finite element (FE) schemes are presented for the hydrostatic Stokes
system or primitive equations of the ocean. It is known that the stability of the mixed formulation ap-
proximation for primitive equations requires the well-known Ladyzhenskaya–Babuˇska–Brezzi condi-
tion related to the Stokes problem and an extra inf-sup condition relating the pressure and the vertical
velocity.
The main goal of this paper is to avoid this extra condition by adding a residual stabilizing term to the
vertical momentum equation. Then, the stability for Stokes-stable FE combinations is extended to
the primitive equations and some error estimates are provided using Taylor–Hood P2 –P1 or miniele-
ment (P1 +bubble)–P1 FE approximations, showing the optimal convergence rate in the P2 –P1 case.
These results are also extended to the anisotropic (nonhydrostatic) problem. On the other hand,
by adding another residual term to the continuity equation, a better approximation of the vertical
derivative of pressure is obtained. In this case, stability and error estimates including this better
approximation are deduced, where optimal convergence rate is deduced in the (P 1 +bubble)–P1 case.
Finally, some numerical experiments are presented supporting previous results
The Simultaneous Strong Resolving Graph and the Simultaneous Strong Metric Dimension of Graph Families
We consider in this work a new approach to study the simultaneous strong metric dimension of graphs families, while introducing the simultaneous version of the strong resolving graph. In concordance, we consider here connected graphs G whose vertex sets are represented as V(G), and the following terminology. Two vertices u,v is an element of V(G) are strongly resolved by a vertex w is an element of V(G), if there is a shortest w-v path containing u or a shortest w-u containing v. A set A of vertices of the graph G is said to be a strong metric generator for G if every two vertices of G are strongly resolved by some vertex of A. The smallest possible cardinality of any strong metric generator (SSMG) for the graph G is taken as the strong metric dimension of the graph G. Given a family F of graphs defined over a common vertex set V, a set S subset of V is an SSMG for F, if such set S is a strong metric generator for every graph G is an element of F. The simultaneous strong metric dimension of F is the minimum cardinality of any strong metric generator for F, and is denoted by Sds(F). The notion of simultaneous strong resolving graph of a graph family F is introduced in this work, and its usefulness in the study of Sds(F) is described. That is, it is proved that computing Sds(F) is equivalent to computing the vertex cover number of the simultaneous strong resolving graph of F. Several consequences (computational and combinatorial) of such relationship are then deduced. Among them, we remark for instance that we have proved the NP-hardness of computing the simultaneous strong metric dimension of families of paths, which is an improvement (with respect to the increasing difficulty of the problem) on the results known from the literature
C*-algebras associated to boolean dynamical systems
The goal of these notes is to present the C*-algebra C*(B,L,θ) of a Boolean dynamical system (B,L,θ), that generalizes the C*-algebra associated to Labelled graphs introduced by Bates and Pask, and to determine its simplicity, its gauge invariant ideals, as well as compute its K-Theory
Semiclassical expansions in the Toda hierarchy and the hermitian matrix model
An iterative algorithm for determining a class of solutions of the
dispersionful 2-Toda hierarchy characterized by string equations is developed.
This class includes the solution which underlies the large N-limit of the
Hermitian matrix model in the one-cut case. It is also shown how the double
scaling limit can be naturally formulated in this schemeComment: 22 page
