    Calabi-Yau coalgebras

    Full text link
    We provide a construction of minimal injective resolutions of simple comodules of path coalgebras of quivers with relations. Dual to Calabi-Yau condition of algebras, we introduce the Calabi-Yau condition to coalgebras. Then we give some descriptions of Calabi-Yau coalgebras with lower global dimensions. An appendix is included for listing some properties of cohom functors

    Dualities of artinian coalgebras with applications to noetherian complete algebras

    Full text link
    A duality theorem of the bounded derived category of quasi-finite comodules over an artinian coalgebra is established. Let AA be a noetherian complete basic semiperfect algebra over an algebraically closed field, and CC be its dual coalgebra. If AA is Artin-Schelter regular, then the local cohomology of AA is isomorphic to a shift of twisted bimodule 1Cσ{}_1C_{\sigma^*} with σ\sigma a coalgebra automorphism. This yields that the balanced dualinzing complex of AA is a shift of the twisted bimodule σA1{}_{\sigma^*}A_1. If σ\sigma is an inner automorphism, then AA is Calabi-Yau

    The distribution of species range size: a stochastic process

    The major role played by environmental factors in determining the geographical range sizes of species raises the possibility of describing their long-term dynamics in relatively simple terms, a goal which has hitherto proved elusive. Here we develop a stochastic differential equation to describe the dynamics of the range size of an individual species based on the relationship between abundance and range size, derive a limiting stationary probability model to quantify the stochastic nature of the range size for that species at steady state, and then generalize this model to the species-range size distribution for an assemblage. The model fits well to several empirical datasets of the geographical range sizes of species in taxonomic assemblages, and provides the simplest explanation of species-range size distributions to date

    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
