Motivic Serre invariants, ramification, and the analytic Milnor fiber
We show how formal and rigid geometry can be used in the theory of complex
singularities, and in particular in the study of the Milnor fibration and the
motivic zeta function. We introduce the so-called analytic Milnor fiber
associated to the germ of a morphism f from a smooth complex algebraic variety
X to the affine line. This analytic Milnor fiber is a smooth rigid variety over
the field of Laurent series C((t)). Its etale cohomology coincides with the
singular cohomology of the classical topological Milnor fiber of f; the
monodromy transformation is given by the Galois action. Moreover, the points on
the analytic Milnor fiber are closely related to the motivic zeta function of
f, and the arc space of X.
We show how the motivic zeta function can be recovered as some kind of Weil
zeta function of the formal completion of X along the special fiber of f, and
we establish a corresponding Grothendieck trace formula, which relates, in
particular, the rational points on the analytic Milnor fiber over finite
extensions of C((t)), to the Galois action on its etale cohomology.
The general observation is that the arithmetic properties of the analytic
Milnor fiber reflect the structure of the singularity of the germ f.Comment: Some minor errors corrected. The original publication is available at

Criação e manutenção de colônias de Ceratitis capitata e Anastrepha obliqua para estudos de biologia e ecologia da praga na Bahia.
As moscas-das-frutas são consideradas pragas agrícolas de uma extensa variedade de frutíferas apresentando algumas características biológicas que as favorecem, como elevado potencial biótico, habilidade de se dispersarem no meio ambiente e de se adaptarem a novos hospedeiros (GALLO et al., 1993). Essas espécies são responsáveis por danos diretos e indiretos, sendo consideradas um dos principais problemas fitossanitários da fruticultura brasileira e mundial (MORGANTE, 1991).Em paralelo aconteceram também os seguintes eventos: V Seminário de Pesquisa do Recôncavo da Bahia; V Seminário Estudantil de Pesquisa da UFRB; V Seminário da Pós-Graduação da UFRB; II Seminário Regional de Pesquisa da EBDA; 5ª Jornada Científica da Embrapa Mandioca e Fruticultura; VIII Seminário Estudantil de Pesquisa e Extensão da FAMAM; Semana de Ciência, Tecnologia e Inovação no Agronegócio; Fórum de Gestores de Iniciação Científica e Tecnológica da Bahia; II Simpósio Baiano de Defesa Agropecuária; I Semana de Educação Tutorial da UFRB
The HI content of the Eridanus group of galaxies
The HI content of galaxies in the Eridanus group is studied using the GMRT
observations and the HIPASS data. A significant HI deficiency up to a factor of
2-3 is observed in galaxies in the high galaxy density regions. The HI
deficiency in galaxies is observed to be directly correlated with the local
projected galaxy density, and inversely correlated with the line-of-sight
radial velocity. Furthermore, galaxies with larger optical diameters are
predominantly in the lower galaxy density regions. It is suggested that the HI
deficiency in Eridanus is due to tidal interactions. In some galaxies,
evidences of tidal interactions are seen. An important implication is that
significant evolution of galaxies can take place in the group environment. In
the hierarchical way of formation of clusters via mergers of groups, a fraction
of the observed HI deficiency in clusters could have originated in groups. The
co-existence of S0's and severely HI deficient galaxies in the Eridanus group
suggests that galaxy harassment is likely to be an effective mechanism for
transforming spirals to S0's.Comment: 21 pages; Accepted for publication in Journal of Astroph. & Astron.

Analytical and discrete solutions for the incipient motion of ellipsoidal sediment particles
[EN] This work introduces analytical and numerical approaches to compute the incipient motion of ellipsoidal sediment particles. Initiation of motion of spherical particles is dominated by rolling mode. However, solutions for initiation of motion for non-spherical grains have to incorporate rolling, sliding, and mixed modes. The proposed approaches include a wide variety of shapes and inclinations that represent realistic configurations of sediment bed layers. The numerical procedure is based on the discrete element method, simulating the micro-mechanics of the sediment as an aggregate of rigid ellipsoids interacting by contact. The numerical solution covers a range of incipient movements that cannot be covered by the analytical approach. Hence, some trapped modes observed in analytical calculations are complemented by the numerical computation of threshold stresses. The main results are organized as novel extended Shields diagrams for non-spherical grains, where non-dimensional critical shear stress is represented in terms of friction Reynolds number.This work was supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación Grant [#BIA-2012-32918 and #BIA-2015-64994-P (MINECO/FEDER)].Bravo, R.; Ortiz, P.; Pérez-Aparicio, JL.
