Rational curves on homogeneous cones
Let G/Q be an homogeneous variety embedded in a projective space P thanks to
an ample line bundle L. Take a projective space containing P and form the cone
X over G/Q, we call this a cone over an homogeneous variety.
Let a class of 1-cycle on X. In this article we describe the
irreducible components of the scheme of morphisms of class from a
rational curve to X.
The situation depends on the line bundle L : if the projectivised tangent
space to the vertex contains lines (i.e. if G/Q contains lines in P) then the
irreducible components are described as in our paper math.AG/0407123 by the
difference between Cartier and Weil divisors. On the contrary if there is no
line in the projectivised tangent space to the vertex then there are new
irreducible components corresponding to the multiplicity of the curve through
the vertex.
As in math.AG/0407123 we use a resolution Y of X (the blowing-up) and study
the curves on Y.Comment: In english, 13 page
The damped focusing cubic wave equation on a bounded domain
For the focusing cubic wave equation on a compact Riemannian manifold of
dimension , the dichotomy between global existence and blow-up for solutions
starting below the energy of the ground state is known since the work of Payne
and Sattinger. In the case of a damped equation, we prove that the dichotomy
between global existence and blow-up still holds. In particular, the damping
does not prevent blow-up. Assuming that the damping satisfies the geometric
control condition, we then prove that any global bounded solution converges to
a stationary solution along a time sequence, and that global solutions below
the energy of the ground state can be stabilised, adapting the proof of a
similar result in the defocusing case
Uniform estimates for solutions of nonlinear focusing damped wave equations
For a damped wave (or Klein-Gordon) equation on a bounded domain, with a
focusing power-like nonlinearity satisfying some growth conditions, we prove
that a global solution is bounded in the energy space, uniformly in time. Our
result applies in particular to the case of a cubic equation on a bounded
domain of dimension 3
Probing superfluidity in a quasi two-dimensional Bose gas through its local dynamics
We report direct evidence of superfluidity in a quasi two-dimensional Bose
gas by observing its dynamical response to a collective excitation. Relying on
a novel local correlation analysis, we are able to probe inhomogeneous clouds
and reveal their local dynamics. We identify in this way the superfluid and
thermal phases inside the gas and locate the boundary at which the
Berezinskii--Kosterlitz--Thouless crossover occurs. This new analysis also
allows to evidence the coupling of the two fluids which induces at finite
temperatures damping rates larger than the usual Landau damping
Communes dâArgelĂšs-Gazost, Cauterets et GĂšdre
La multiplicitĂ© et la rĂ©currence des recherches palĂ©oenvironnementales conduites dans toute la chaĂźne des PyrĂ©nĂ©es françaises depuis plusieurs dizaines dâannĂ©es ont permis la construction dâun cadre analytique dĂ©taillĂ© permettant dâapprocher lâĂ©volution du milieu et des impacts anthropiques sur la longue durĂ©e. Ces donnĂ©es proviennent essentiellement des analyses palynologiques de carottages qui attestent de lâouverture du milieu forestier montagnard Ă de multiples reprises et parfois Ă des d..
Vivario â Abri Southwell
Lâabri Southwell est lâun des rares sites du NĂ©olithique ancien Ă se situer en plein cĆur de la Corse, loin des cĂŽtes. FouillĂ© de façon probablement assez expĂ©ditive au dĂ©but du xxe s. par un lord anglais, Mr Forsyth Major, et sa compagne, Mrs Southwell, aucune information nâĂ©tait disponible quant aux caractĂšres mĂȘmes de ces dĂ©pĂŽts. Le mobilier recueilli anciennement a de plus Ă©tĂ© Ă©clatĂ© entre plusieurs musĂ©es français et italiens. LâopĂ©ration de sondage archĂ©ologique programmĂ© conduite au pr..
Montrozier â Roquemissou
Depuis 2012, de nouvelles campagnes de fouilles programmĂ©es sont conduites annuellement sur le gisement prĂ©historique de Roquemissou. Le site se localise au pied dâune barre de calcaires bioclastiques jurassiques orientĂ©es sud-ouest â nord-est se dĂ©veloppant de façon discontinue sur prĂšs de 2 km entre Montrozier et Gages-le-Haut, Ă 13 km Ă lâest de Rodez. DĂ©couvert en 1980 par P.-M. Blanquet, le site fut fouillĂ© durant onze campagnes entre 1982 et 1991 par G.-B. Arnal (CNRS). Celui-ci exploit..
Serra-di-Ferro â Basi
DĂ©couvert au milieu des annĂ©es 1960 au cours de travaux liĂ©s Ă lâinstallation dâune carriĂšre dans un chaos granitique et fouillĂ© durant quatre campagnes par GĂ©rard Bailloud, le gisement de Basi, dans la basse vallĂ©e du Taravo en Corse-du-Sud, fait office depuis de site de rĂ©fĂ©rence pour la PrĂ©histoire rĂ©cente de lâĂźle. Dans les deux sondages quâil rĂ©alisa, G. Bailloud mis en effet en Ă©vidence une succession dâoccupations depuis le NĂ©olithique ancien jusquâĂ lâĂąge du Bronze, ayant livrĂ© un mat..
Orgnac-lâAven â Baume de Ronze
Cette annĂ©e est la troisiĂšme du programme de prĂ©paration de publication des recherches conduites par Alain Beeching aÌ la Baume de Ronze (OrgnacÂlâAven, ArdĂšche). SitueÌ sur le plateau urgonien de SaintÂRemeÌze, aÌ mi-chemin entre les vallĂ©es de lâArdĂšche et de la CĂšze, le gisement est un aven, partiellement effondreÌ, qui se prĂ©sente comme une vaste ouverture de 70 m de diamĂštre sur le sol de la garrigue. Les occupations prĂ©historiques se placent en contrebas de la surface actuelle, sur une..
