An abstract setting for hamiltonian actions |
MSC: 17B56; 35Q53 In this paper we develop an abstract setup for hamiltonian group actions as follows: Starting with a continuous $2$-cochain $\omega$ on a Lie algebra $h$ with values in an $h$-module $V$, we associate subalgebras $sp(h,\omega) \supseteq ham(h,\omega)$ of symplectic, resp., hamiltonian elements. Then $ham(h,\omega)$ has a natural central extension which in turn is contained in a larger abelian extension of $sp(h,\omega)$. In this setting, we study linear actions of a Lie group $G$ on $V$ which are compatible with a homomorphism $g \rightarrow ham(h,\omega)$, i.e. abstract hamiltonian actions, corresponding central and abelian extensions of $G$ and momentum maps $J : g \rightarrow V$. |
2541 (opens in new tab) | 18.03.2008 | Karl-Hermann Neeb | Lie group extensions associated to projective modules of continuous inverse algebras |
MSC: 22E65; 58B34 We call a unital locally convex algebra $A$ a continuous inverse algebra if its unit group $A^\times$ is open and inversion is a continuous map. For any smooth action of a, possibly infinite-dimensional, connected Lie group $G$ on a continuous inverse algebra $A$ by automorphisms and any finitely generated projective right $A$-module $E$, we construct a Lie group extension $\hat G$ of $G$ by the group $GL_A(E)$ of automorphisms of the $A$-module $E$. This Lie group extension is a ``non-commutative'' version of the group $Aut(V)$ of automorphism of a vector bundle over a compact manifold $M$, which arises for $G = Diff(M)$, $A = C^\infty(M,C)$ and $E = \Gamma V$. We also identify the Lie algebra $\hat g$ of $\hat G$ and explain how it is related to connections of the $A$-module $E$. |
2540 | 18.03.2008 | Rudolf Wille | Concept Graphs as Semantic Structures for Contextual Judgment Logic |
MSC: 03B This paper presents a mathematization of the philosophical dcotrine of judgments as an extension of the mathem atization of the philosophical doctrine of concepts delveloped in Formal Concept Analysis. The chosen approach was strongly sti mulated by J.F. Sowa's theory of conceptual graphs. The mathematized conceptual graphs, called concept graphs, are mathematical semantic structures based on formal contexts and their formal concepts; those semantic structures are viewed as formal judgmen ts in the underlying Contextual Judgment Logic. In this papper concept graphs are systematically built up with simple concepts graphs in section 2 and continuing with existential graphs in section 3, with implicational and clausal concept graphs in secti on 4, and finally with generalizations of concept graphs in section 5. Examples are illustrating the different types of concept graphs. |

MSC: 06F This paper continues the approach of developing an order-theoretic structure theory of one-dimensional continu um structures as elaborated in [Wi07] (see also [Wi83],[Wi03]. The aim is to extend the order-theoretic structure theory by a m eaningful algebraization; for this, we concentrate on the real linear continuum structure with its derived concept lattice whic h gives rise to the so-called “real half-numbers”. The algebraization approaches an ordered algebraic structure on the set of a ll real half-numbers to make the continuum structure ot the reals more transparent and tractable. |

The problems considered belong to a general class with monotone constitutive equations modelling materials showing kinematic hardening. A standard example is the Melan-Prager model. It is shown that the strain/stress/internal variable fields have $H^{1+1/3-\delta}/H^{1/3-\delta}/H^{1/3-\delta}$ regularity up to the boundary. The proof uses perturbation estimates for monotone operator equations. |

MSC: 00-99 In this article the following thesis is explained and substantiated: Sense and meaning of mathematics finally lie in the fact that mathematics is able to report the rational communication of humans. The essence of the argumentation is that the effective support becomes possible by the close connection between mathematics and logic (in the sense of Peirce's latest philosophy) by which, in his turn, the communicative rationality (in the sense of Habermas' theory of communicative action) can be activated. How such a support may be concretely performed shall be illustrated by the development of a retrieval system for the library of the Center of Interdisciplinary Technology Research at Darmstadt University of Technology. |

Adaptivity in Space and Time for Magnetoquasistatics |
MSC: 65M60; 65L06; 78M10 This paper addresses fully space-time adaptive magnetic field computations. We describe an adaptive Whitney finite element method for solving the magnetoquasistatic formulation of Maxwell's equations on unstructured 3D tetrahedral grids. Spatial mesh refinement and coarsening are based on hierarchical error estimators especially designed for combining tetrahedral H(curl)-conforming edge elements in space with linearly implicit Rosenbrock methods in time. An embedding technique is applied to get efficiency in time through variable time steps. Finally, we present numerical results for the magnetic recording write head benchmark problem proposed by the Storage Research Consortium in Japan. |

Optimal Initial Value Conditions for the Existence of Local Strong Solutions of the Navier-Stokes Equations |
MSC: 35Q30; 76D05; 35B65 Consider the instationary Navier-Stokes system in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset R^3$ with vanishing force and initial value $u_0\in L^2_\sigma(\Omega)$. Since the work of Kiselev-Ladyzhenskaya in 1963 there have been found several conditions on $u_0$ to prove the existence of a unique strong solution $u\in L^s(0,T; L^q(\Omega))$ with $u(0) = u_0$ in some time interval $[0,T)$, $0 < T \leq \infty$, where the exponents $2 < s < \infty$, $3 < q < \infty$ satisfy $\frac{2}{s} + \frac{3}{q} = 1$. Indeed, such conditions could be weakened step by step, thus enlarging the corresponding solution classes. Our aim is to prove the following optimal result with the weakest possible initial value condition and the largest possible solution class: Given $u_0,¸q,¸s$ as above and the Stokes operator $A_q$, we prove that the condition $\int_0^\infty \| e^{-tA_q}u_0\|_q^s¸ dt < \infty$ is necessary and sufficient for the existence of such a strong solution $u$. The proof rests on arguments from the recently developed theory of very weak solutions. |

Diagonally Drift--Implicit Runge--Kutta Methods of Weak Order One and Two for It{ô} SDEs and Stability Analysis |
MSC: 65C30; 60H35; 65C20; 68U20 Families of first and second order diagonally drift--implicit SRK (DDISRK) methods for the weak approximation of SDEs contained in the class of SRK methods proposed by R{ö}{ß}ler are calculated. Their asymptotic stability as well as mean--square stability (MS--stability) properties are studied for a linear stochastic test equation with multiplicative noise. The stability functions for the DDISRK methods are determined and their domains of stability are compared to the corresponding domain of stability of the considered test equation. Stability regions are presented for various coefficients of the families of DDISRK methods in order to determine step size restrictions such that the numerical approximation reproduces the characteristics of the solution process. |

MSC: 0099 What mathematics could and should mean for humans in general may only be clarified in a broader process of communication and understanding. This process of understanding needs a general culture of discourse which should not only be restricted to the discourse between mathematicians, but as a matter of principle should include all humans whether they are actively concerned with mathematics or only been affected by consequences of mathematical developments. Such a culture of discourse is dependent on a 'generalistic mathematics' which makes understandable the conception of mathematics, its connection to the world, and sense, meaning, and connection of mathematical acitivities; moreover, generalistic mathematics is guided by the idea of an open, meaningful, communicative and critical mathematics. |

MSC: 06A Formal Concept Analysis is a mathematical theory of concept hierarchies which is based on Lattice Theory. It has been developed to support humans in their thought and knowledge. The aim of this paper is to show how successful the lattice-theoretic foundation can be in applying Formal Concept Analysis in a wide range. This is demonstraded in three sections dealing with representation, processing and measurement of conceptual knowledge. Finally, further relationships between abstract Lattice Theory and Formal Concept Analysis are briefly discussed. |

Families of efficient second order Runge-Kutta methods for the weak approximation of Itô stochastic differential equations |
MSC: 65C30; 60H35; 65C20; 68U20 Recently, a new class of second order Runge-Kutta methods for Itô stochastic differential equations with a multidimensional Wiener process was introduced by Rö{ß}ler. In contrast to second order methods earlier proposed by other authors, this class has the advantage that the number of function evaluations depends only linearly on the number of Wiener processes and not quadratically. In this paper, we give a full classification of the coefficients of all explicit methods with minimal stage number. Based on this classification, we calculate the coefficients of an extension with minimized error constant of the well-known RK32 method to the stochastic case. For three examples, this method is compared numerically with known order two methods and yields very promising results. |

Very weak, weak and strong solutions to the instationary Navier-Stokes system |
MSC: 35Q30; 35B65; 76D05; 76D07 In this survey paper we discuss the theory of very weak solutions to the stationary and instationary (Navier-)Stokes system in a bounded domain of $R^3$ and show how this new notion of solutions may be used to prove regularity locally or globally in space and time of a given weak solution. |

The class of solutions is contained in the space variable in a Bessel-Potential space weighted with a Muckenhoupt weight. In this context we derive solvability for small data, where this smallness can be realized by the restriction on a short time interval. Depending on the order of this Bessel-Potential space we are dealing with strong solutions, weak solutions, or with very weak solutions. |

Depending on the order of this Bessel-Potential space we are dealing with strong solutions or with very weak solutions. Whereas in the context of lowest regularity one obtains solvability with respect to inhomogeneous data by dualization, this is more delicate in the case of higher regularity, where one has to introduce some additional time regularity. As a preparation, we introduce a generalization of the Stokes operator that is appropriate to the context of very weak solutions in weighted Bessel-Potential spaces. \end{abstract} \emph{Key Words and Phrases:} Instationary Stokes equations, Muckenhoupt weights, very weak solutions, Bessel-Potential spaces, nonhomgeneous data |

MSC: 35Q30; 35D05; 76D05; 35J65 We investigate the stationary Navier-Stokes equations in Bessel-potential spaces with Muckenhoupt weights. Since in this setting it is possible that the solutions do not posses any weak derivatives, we use the notation of very weak solutions introduced by Amann [1]. The basic tool is complex interpolation, thus we give a characterization of the interpolation spaces of the spaces of data and solutions. Then we establish a theory of solutions to the Stokes equations in weighted Bessel-potential spaces and use this to prove solvability of the Navier-Stokes equations for small data by means of Banach's Fixed Point Theorem. |

The notion used here is similar but even more general than the one used in [2] or [14]. Consequently the class of solutions is enlarged. To describe boundary conditions we restrict ourselves to more regular data. We introduce a Banach space that admits a restriction operator and that contains the solutions according to such data. |

Towards a Fully Space-Time Adaptive FEM for Magnetoquasistatics |
MSC: 65M60; 78M10 This paper is concerned with fully space-time adaptive magnetic field computations. We describe a Whitney finite element method for solving the magnetoquasistatic formulation of Maxwell's equations on unstructured 3D tetrahedral grids. Spatial discretization is done by employing hierarchical tetrahedral H(curl)-conforming elements proposed by Ainsworth and Coyle. For the time discretization, we use a newly constructed one-step Rosenbrock method ROS3PL with 3rd order accuracy in time. Adaptive mesh refinement and coarsening are based on hierarchical error estimators especially designed for Rosenbrock methods. An embedding technique is applied to get efficiency in time through variable time steps. Finally, we present numerical results for the benchmark problem TEAM 7. |

Energy-Based Regularity Criteria for the Navier-Stokes Equations |
MSC: 35Q30; 76D05; 35B65 We present several new regularity criteria for weak solutions $u$ of the instationary Navier-Stokes system which additionally satisfy the strong energy inequality. (i) If the kinetic energy $1/2 \| u(t) \|_2^2$ is Hölder continuous as a function of time $t$ with Hölder exponent $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$, then $u$ is regular. (ii) If the dissipation energy satisfies the left-side condition $\liminf_{\delta \to 0} \delta^{-\alpha} \int_{t-\delta}^t \| \na u\|_2^2 ¸ d\tau < \infty$, $\alpha \in (1/2,1)$, for all $t$ of the given time interval, then $u$ is regular. The proofs use local regularity results which are based on the theory of very weak solutions and on uniqueness arguments for weak solutions. Finally, in the last section, we mention a local space-time regularity condition. |

Regularity up to the boundary for nonlinear elliptic systems arising in time-incremental infinitesimal elasto-plasticity |
MSC: 74C05; 35B65; 49N60; 74A35; 74G40 In this note we investigate the question of higher regularity up to the boundary for quasilinear elliptic systems which origin from the time-discretization of models from infinitesimal elasto-plasticity. Our main focus lies on an elasto-plastic Cosserat model. More specifically we show that the time discretization renders $H^2$-regularity of the displacement and $H^1$-regularity for the symmetric plastic strain $\varepsilon_p$ up to the boundary provided the plastic strain of the previous time step is in $H^1$, as well. This result contrasts with classical Hencky and Prandtl-Reuss formulations where it is known not to hold due to the occurrence of slip lines and shear bands. Similar regularity statements are obtained for other regularizations of ideal plasticity like viscosity or isotropic hardening. In the first part we recall the time continuous Cosserat elasto-plasticity problem, provide the update functional for one time step and show various preliminary results for the update functional (Legendre-Hadamard/monotonicity). Using non standard difference quotient techniques we are able to show the higher global regularity. Higher regularity is crucial for qualitative statements of finite element convergence. As a result we may obtain estimates linear in the mesh-width $h$ in error estimates. |

On the cohomology of vector fields on parallelizable manifolds |
MSC: 17B56; 17B65; 17B68 In the present paper we determine for each parallelizable smooth compact manifold ${\sst M}$ the cohomology spaces ${\sst H^2({\cal V}_M,\oline\Omega^p_M)}$ of the Lie algebra ${\sst {\cal V}_M}$ of smooth vector fields on ${\sst M}$ with values in the module ${\sst \oline\Omega^p_M = \Omega^p_M/d\Omega^{p-1}_M}$. The case of ${\sst p=1}$ is of particular interest since the gauge algebra ${\sst C^\infty (M,\k)}$ has the universal central extension with center ${\sst \oline\Omega^1_M}$, generalizing affine Kac-Moody algebras. The second cohomology ${\sst H^2(\V_M, \oline\Omega^1_M)}$ classifies twists of the semidirect product of ${\sst \V_M}$ with the universal central extension ${\sst C^\infty (M,\k) \oplus \oline\Omega^1_M}$. |

Fredholm properties of band-dominated operators on periodic discrete structures |
MSC: 47B36; 47B39; 47A53 Let $(X, \sim)$ be a combinatorial graph the vertex set $X$ of which is a discrete metric space. We suppose that a discrete group $G$ acts freely on $(X, \sim)$ and that the fundamental domain with respect to the action of $G$ contains only a finite set of points. A graph with these properties is called periodic with respect to the group $G$. We examine the Fredholm property and the essential spectrum of band-dominated operators acting on the spaces $l^p(X)$ or $c_0(X)$, where $(X, \sim)$ is a periodic graph. Our approach is based on the thorough use of band-dominated operators. It generalizes the results obtained by the authors and B. Silbermann in the special case $X = G = \sZ^n$ and by J. Roe in case $X = G$ is a general finitely generated discrete group. |

On Global Error Estimation and Control for Parabolic Equations |

Comput., 2007] for initial value problems to parabolic partial differential equations. The classical ODE approach based on the first variational equation is combined with an estimation for the PDE spatial truncation error to estimate the overall error in the computed solution. Control is achieved through tolerance proportionality and uniform mesh refinement. Numerical examples are used to illustrate the reliability of the estimation and control strategies. |

It is shown that the solution $u$, that is constructed as in Bogowski's approach in [1] fulfills estimates in the weighted Sobolev spaces $W^{k,q}_{w}(\Omega)$, where the weight function $w$ is contained in the class of Muckenhoupt weights $A_q$. |

As an application we prove the existence of a continuous extension operator for all normal derivatives of order 0 to $k$ on domains of class $C^{k,1}$. The construction of this operator is performed in weighted function spaces where the weight function is taken from the class of Muckenhoupt weights. |

Higher-order linearly implicit one-step methods for three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations |
MSC: 76D05; 76M10 In this work higher-order methods for integrating the three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are proposed. The numerical solution is achieved by using linearly implicit one-step methods up to third order in time coupled with up to third order stable finite element discretizations in space. These orders of convergence are demonstrated by comparing the numerical solution with exact Navier-Stokes solutions. Finally, we present benchmark computations for flow around a cylinder. |

Essential spectra of difference operators on $\sZ^n$-periodic graphs |
MSC: 81Q10; 46N50; 47B36 Let $(\cX, ¸ \rho)$ be a discrete metric space. We suppose that the group $\sZ^n$ acts freely on $X$ and that the number of orbits of $X$ with respect to this action is finite. Then we call $X$ a $\sZ^n$-periodic discrete metric space. We examine the Fredholm property and essential spectra of band-dominated operators on $l^p(X)$ where $X$ is a $\sZ^n$-periodic discrete metric space. Our approach is based on the theory of band-dominated operators on $\sZ^n$ and their limit operators. In case $X$ is the set of vertices of a combinatorial graph, the graph structure defines a Schrödinger operator on $l^p(X)$ in a natural way. We illustrate our approach by determining the essential spectra of Schrödinger operators with slowly oscillating potential both on zig-zag and on hexagonal graphs, the latter being related to nano-structures. |

MSC: 03A05 We introduce a `meaningful' (i.e. not only formal) language L, the use and the semantic of their sentences are determined by `external facts' on the one hand and rules of assertion on the other. To reduce the problem of beginning reasoning, we stipulate certain rules to restrict assertions, and we also agree that assertions of sentences of L must not be restricted besides. By liberalizing the resulting use of assertions we establish a `classical game' of assertion which permits to apply classical logic an serves essential purposes of reasoning most favorably. At the end of this paper we analyze the meaning of general conditionals that may be applied like rules of inference. To this end, we consider temporal details of assertion. By the way, we obtain a rule-logical approach to intuitionistic logic, and an approach to deontic logic, too. |

Lie group structures on groups of smooth and holomorphic maps on non-compact manifolds |
MSC: 22E65; 22E67; 22E15; 22E30 We study Lie group structures on groups of the form ${\sst C^\infty(M,K)}$, where ${\sst M}$ is a non-compact smooth manifold and ${\sst K}$ is a, possibly infinite-dimensional, Lie group. First we prove that there is at most one Lie group structure with Lie algebra ${\sst C^\infty(M,\k)}$ for which the evaluation map is smooth. We then prove the existence of such a structure if the universal cover of ${\sst K}$ is diffeomorphic to a locally convex spa ce and if the image of the left logarithmic derivative in ${\sst \Omega^1(M,\k)}$ is a smooth submanifold, the latter being the case in particular if ${\sst M}$ is one-dimensional. We also obtain analogs of these results for the group ${\sst {\cal O}(M,K)}$ of holomorphic maps on a complex manifold with values in a complex Lie group ${\sst K}$. We further show that there exists a natural Lie group structure on ${\sst {\cal O}(M,K)}$ if ${\sst K}$ is Banach and ${\sst M}$ is a non-compact complex curve with finitely generated fundamental group. |

Notes on strain gradient plasticity: Finite strain covariant modelling and global existence in the infinitesimal rate-independent case. |
MSC: 74A35; 74A30; 74C05; 74C10 We propose a model of finite strain gradient plasticity including phenomenological Prager-Ziegler type linear kinematical hardening and nonlocal kinematical hardening due to dislocation interaction. Based on the multiplicative decomposition a thermodynamically admissible flow rule for $F_p$ is described involving as plastic gradient $\Curl F_p$. The formulation is covariant w.r.t. superposed rigid rotations of the reference, intermediate and spatial configuration but the model is not spin-free due to the nonlocal dislocation interaction and cannot be reduced to a dependence on $C_p$. The linearization leads to a thermodynamically admissible model of infinitesimal plasticity involving only the $\Curl$ of the non-symmetric plastic variable $p$. Linearized spatial and material covariance under constant infinitesimal rotations is satisfied. Uniqueness of strong solutions of the infinitesimal model is obtained if two non-classical boundary conditions on the non-symmetric small strain plastic variable $p$ are introduced: $\dot{p}.\tau=0$ on the microscopically hard boundary $\Gamma_D\subset\partial\Omega$ and $[\Curl p].\tau=0$ on the microscopically free boundary $\partial\Omega\setminus\Gamma_D$, where $\tau$ are the tangential vectors at the boundary $\partial\Omega$. Moreover, we show that a weak reformulation of the infinitesimal model allows for a global in-time solution of the corresponding rate-independent initial boundary value problem. The method of choice are a formulation as a variational inequality with symmetric and coercive bilinear form. Use is made of new Hilbert-space suitable for dislocation density dependent plasticity. |

A geometrically exact thin membrane model -investigation of large deformations and wrinkling. |
MSC: 74K15; 74K20; 74G65 We investigate a geometrically exact membrane model with respect to its capabilities in describing buckling and wrinkling. Contrary to more classical tension-field or relaxed approaches, our model is able to capture the detailed geometry of wrinkling while the balance of force equations remains elliptic throughout. This is achieved by introducing artficial viscosity related to the movement of an adjusted orthonormal frame (rotations) given by a local evolution equation. We discuss the consistent linearization of the model and investigate the efficiency of the local update of rotations. Numerical examples are presented that demonstrate the effectiveness of the new model for predicting wrinkles in membranes undergoing large deformation. |

Local space-time regularity criteria for weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations beyond Serrin's condition |
MSC: 35Q30; 76D05; 35D05 Consider a weak solution $u$ of the Navier-Stokes equations for a general domain $\Omega \subset R^3$ on the time interval $[0,\infty)$ and a parabolic cylinder $Q_r =Q_r(t_0,x_0) \subset (0,\infty) \times \Omega$ with $r>0$, $t_0 \in (0,\infty)$, $x_0 \in \Omega$. Then we show that there exists an absolute constant $\varepsilon_*>0$ such that the local condition $\|u \|_{L^q(Q_r)} \leq \varepsilon_* ¸ r^{\frac{2}{q} + \frac{3}{q}-1}, \frac{2}{q} + \frac{3}{q} \leq 1 + \frac{1}{4}$, implies the regularity of $u$ in the smaller cylinder $Q_{r/2}$. The special case $\frac{2}{q} + \frac{3}{q}=1$ yields the well-known local Serrin condition $\| u \|_{L^q(Q_r)} \leq varepsilon_*$. Thus our criterion extends Serrin's condition admitting smaller exponents $q$ and replacing the barrier $1$ by $1+\frac{1}{4}$. |

On the Stokes Operator in General Unbounded Domains |
MSC: 76D05; 35Q30 It is known that the Stokes operator is not well-defined in $L^q$-spaces for certain unbounded smooth domains unless $q=2$. In this paper, we generalize a new approach to the Stokes resolvent problem and to maximal regularity in general unbounded smooth domains from the three-dimensional case, see R. Farwig, H. Kozono, H. Sohr, {\it An $L^q$--approach to Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations in general domains,} Acta Math. 195, 21--53 (2005), to the $n$-dimensional one, $n \geq 2,$ replacing the space $L^q, 1 < q < \infty,$ by $\tilde L^q$ where $\tilde L^q = L^q \cap L^2$ for $q \geq 2$ and $\tilde L^q = L^q + L^2$ for $1 < q < 2.$ In particular, we show that the Stokes operator is well-defined in $\tilde L^q$ for every unbounded domain of uniform $C^{1,1}$-type in $R^n, n \geq 2$, satisfies the classical resolvent estimate, generates an analytic semigroup and has maximal regularity. |

For a solution of this problem we apply the limit operators method. This method associates with each band-dominated operator $A$ a family $op (A)$ of so-called limit operators which reflect the properties of $A$ at infinity. Consider the compactification of $\sR^n$ by the “infinitely distant” sphere $S^{n-1}$. Then the set $op (A)$ can be written as the union of its components $op_{\eta_\omega} (A)$ where $\omega$ runs through the points of $S^{n-1}$ and where $op_{\eta_\omega} (A)$ collects all limit operators of $A$ which reflect the properties of $A$ if one tends to infinity “in the direction of $\omega$. Set $sp_{\eta_\omega} A := \cup_{A_h \in op_{\eta_\omega} (A)} sp ¸ A_{h}$. We show that ”the distance" of an eigenvalue $\lambda \notin sp_{ess} A$ to $sp_{\eta_\omega} A$ determines the exponential decay of the $\lambda$-eigenfunctions of $A$ in the direction of $\omega$. We apply these results to estimate the exponential decay of eigenfunctions of electromagnetic Schrödinger operators for a large class of electric potentials, in particular, for multiparticle Schrödinger operators and periodic Schrödinger operators perturbed by slowly oscillating at infinity potentials. |

MSC: 06A; 06B This paper offers a mathematical analysis of labelled line diagrams of finite concept lattices to gain a better understanding of those diagrams. The main result is the Basic Theorem on Labelled Line Diagrams of Finite Concept Lattices.

MSC: 26E15; 26E20; 17B63; 22E65; 46A32; 46G20; 46T25 Paradigms of bilinear maps $\beta$ between locally convex spaces (like evaluation or composition) are not continuous, but merely hypocontinuous. We describe situations where, nonetheless, compositions of $\beta$ with Keller $C^n_c$-maps (on suitable domains) are $C^n_c$. Our main applications concern holomorphic families of operators, and the foundations of locally convex Poisson vector spaces. |

Solutions to a Model for Interface Motion by Solutions to a Model for Interface Motion by Interface Diffusion |
MSC: 35Q72; 35M20; 35Q72 Existence of weak solutions is proved for a phase field model describing an interface in an elastically deformable solid, which moves by diffusion of atoms along the interface. The volume of the different regions separated by the interface is conserved, since no exchange of atoms across the interface occurs. The diffusion is only driven by reduction of the bulk free energy. The evolution of the order parameter in this model is governed by a degenerate parabolic fourth order equation. If a regularizing parameter in this equation tends to zero, then solutions tend to solutions of a sharp interface model for interface diffusion. The existence proof is valid only for a $1\frac{1}{2}$--dimensional situation. |

A Weighted $L^q$-Approach to Oseen Flow Around a Rotating Body |
MSC: 76D05; 35Q30 We study time-periodic Oseen flows past a rotating body in $R^3$ proving weighted \it{a priori} estimates in $L^q$-spaces using Muckenhoupt weights. After a time-dependent change of coordinates the problem is reduced to a stationary Oseen equation with the additional terms $(\omega\times x)\cdot\nabla u$ and $-\omega \wedge u$ in the equation of momentum where $\omega$ denotes the angular velocity. Due to the asymmetry of Oseen flow and to describe its wake we use anisotropic Muckenhoupt weights, a weighted theory of Littlewood-Paley decomposition and of maximal operators as well as one-sided univariate weights, one-sided maximal operators and a new version of Jones' factorization theorem. |

MSC: 46G20; 26E05; 26E15; 26E20; 46T25 For each positive integer $k$, we describe a map $f$ from the complex plane to a suitable non-complete complex locally convex space such that $f$ is $k$ times continuously complex differentiable but not $k+1$ times, and hence not complex analytic. As a preliminary, we prove that the sequences $(n^kz^n)_n$ are linearly independent in the space of complex sequences, for $k$ ranging through the integers and $z$ through the set of non-zero complex numbers. We also describe a complex analytic map from $l^1$ to a suitable complete complex locally convex space which is unbounded on each non-empty open subset of $l^1$. Furthermore, we present a smooth map from the real line to a non-complete locally convex space which is not real analytic although it is given locally by its Taylor series around each point. As a byproduct, we find that free locally convex spaces over subsets of the complex plane with non-empty interior are not Mackey complete. |

MSC: 47A53; 46N40; 47B36; 65J10 In a previous paper, two of the authors together with J. Roe derived an index formula which expresses the Fredholm index of a band-dominated operator on $l^2(\sZ)$ in terms of local indices of its limit operators. The proof makes thoroughly use of $K$-theory for $C^*$-algebras (which, of course, appears as a natural approach to index problems). The purpose of this short note is to develop a completely different approach to the index formula for band-dominated operators which is exclusively based on ideas and results from asymptotic numerical analysis. |

On finite sections of band-dominated operators |
MSC: 47N40; 47L40; 65J10 In an earlier paper we showed that the sequence of the finite sections $P_nAP_n$ of a band-dominated operator $A$ on $l^p(\sZ)$ is stable if and only if the operator $A$ is invertible, every limit operator of the sequence $(P_n A P_n)$ is invertible, and if the norms of the inverses of the limit operators are uniformly bounded. The purpose of this short note is to show that the uniform boundedness condition is redundant. |

Extrapolation Methods for Approximating Arc Length and Surface Area |
MSC: 65D30; 65B05 A well-known method of estimating the length of a parametric curve in $R^d$ is to sample some points from it and compute the length of the polygon passing through them. In this paper we show that for uniform sampling of regular smooth curves Richardson extrapolation can be applied repeatedly giving a sequence of derivative-free length estimates of arbitrarily high orders of accuracy. Further, a similar result is derived for the approximation of the area of parametric surfaces. |

On the Spectrum of an Oseen--Type Operator Arising from Flow past a Rotating Body |
MSC: 35Q35; 35P99; 76D07 We present the description of the spectrum of a linear perturbed Oseen--type operator which arises from equations of motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in the exterior of a rotating compact body. Considering the operator in the function space $L^2_{\sigma}(\Omega)$ we prove that the essential spectrum consists of an infinite set of overlapping parabolic regions in the left half--plane of the complex plane. Our approach is based on a reduction to invariant closed subspaces of $L^2_{\sigma}(\Omega)$ and on a Fourier series expansion with respect to an angular variable in a cylindrical coordinate system attached to the axis of rotation. |

Trees and asymptotic developments for fractional stochastic differential equations |
MSC: 60H05; 60H07; 60G15 In this paper we consider a $n$-dimensional stochastic differential equation driven by a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H>1/3$. After solving this equation in a rather elementary way, following the approach of M. Gubinelli (2004), we show how to obtain an expansion for $E[f(X_t)]$ in terms of $t$, where $X$ denotes the solution to the SDE and $f:\R^n\to\R$ is a regular function. With respect to F. Baudoin and L. Coutin (2006), where the same kind of problem is considered, we try an improvement in three different directions: we are able to take a drift into account in the equation, we parametrize our expansion with trees (which makes it easier to use), and we obtain a sharp control of the remainder. |

Directions of automorphisms of Lie groups over local fields compared to the directions of Lie algebra automorphisms |
MSC: 22D05; 20G25; 22D45; 22E15; 22E35 To each totally disconnected, locally compact topological group $G$ and each group $A$ of automorphisms of $G$, a pseudo-metric space $\partial A$ of «directions» has been associated by U. Baumgartner and the second author. Given a Lie group $G$ over a local field, it is a natural idea to try to define a map $\Phi\colon \partial Aut_{C^\omega}(G)\to \partial Aut(L(G))$, $\partial \alpha\mapsto \partial L(\alpha)$ which takes the direction of an analytic automorphism of $G$ to the direction of the associated Lie algebra automorphism. We show that, in general, $\Phi$ is not well defined. Also, it may happen that $\partial L(\alpha)=\partial L(\beta)$ although $\partial \alpha\not=\partial\beta$. However, such pathologies are absent for a large class of groups: we show that $\Phi\colon \partial Inn(G)\to \partial Aut(L(G))$ is a well-defined isometric embedding for each generalized Cayley group $G$. Some counterexamples concerning the existence of small joint tidy subgroups for flat groups of automorphisms are also provided. |

MSC: 65C30; 65L06; 60H35; 60H10 A new class of stochastic Runge--Kutta methods for the weak approximation of the solution of Itô stochastic differential equation systems with a multi--dimensional Wiener process is introduced. As the main innovation, the number of stages of the methods does not depend on the dimension of the driving Wiener process and the number of the necessary random variables is reduced considerably. This reduces the computational effort significantly. Order conditions for the stochastic Runge--Kutta methods assuring weak convergence with order two are calculated by applying the colored rooted tree analysis due to the author. Further, some coefficients for explicit second order stochastic Runge--Kutta schemes are presented. |

Pro-Lie groups which are infinite-dimensional Lie groups |
MSC: 22E65; 17B65; 22D05 A pro-Lie group is a projective limit of a family of finite-dimensional Lie groups. In this note we show that a pro-Lie group $G$ is a Lie group in the sense that its topology is compatible with a smooth manifold structure for which the group operations are smooth if and only if $G$ is locally contractible. We also characterize the corresponding pro-Lie algebras in various ways. Furthermore, we characterize those pro-Lie groups which are locally exponential, that is, they are Lie groups with a smooth exponential function which maps a zero neighborhood in the Lie algebra diffeomorphically onto an open identity neighborhood of the group. |

The chosen approach is based on continua and their subcontinua as primitive notions. In a first step linear and circular continuum structures are defined as ordered sets and concretized by a real number model. In a second step 'points' are deduced as limits of continua by methos of Formal Concept Analysis. The continuum structures extended by those points are analysed and represented by an enlarged real number model. Further research is planned to extend the approach of this paper to higher dimensional continuum structures. |

We show that the $C^k$-maps considered by Schikhof and De Smedt coincide with those of Bertram, Glöckner and Neeb. By contrast, Ludkovsky's $C^k$-maps need not be $C^k$ in the former sense, at least in positive characteristic. We also compare various types of Hölder differentiable maps on finite-dimensional and metrizable spaces. |

In this article, we generalize the General Curve Lemma in two ways: First, we remove the condition of local convexity in the real case. Second, we adapt the lemma to the case of curves in topological vector spaces over ultrametric fields. |

A numerical solution method for an infinitesimal elasto-plastic Cosserat model | We present a finite element implementation of a Cosserat elasto-plastic model allowing for non-symmetric stresses and we provide a numerical analysis of the introduced time-incremental algorithm. The model allows the use of standard tools from convex analysis as known from classical Prandtl-Reuss plasticity. We derive the dual stress formulation and show that for vanishing Cosserat couple modulus $\mu_c\to 0$ the classical problem with symmetric stresses is approximated. Our numerical results testify to the robustness of the approximation. Notably, for positive couple modulus $\mu_c>0$ there is no need for a safe-load assumption. For small $\mu_c$ the response is numerically indistinguishable from the classical response. |

In special situations this Dirichlet problem arises as the Euler equation of a generalised nonparametric area funcional. Under certain smallness conditions we will solve the Dirichlet problem and construct minimizers of the generalized area functional. |

Approximation of Prandtl-Reuss Plasticity through Cosserat-Plasticity |
MSC: 35Q72; 74A35; 74A30; 74C05; 74C10 In this article we investigate the regularizing properties of Cosserat elasto-plastic models in a geometrically linear setting. The models feature an independent microrotation field which allow the Cauchy-stress to become non-symmetric while the contribution of the microrotations itself remains linear elastic. Extending previous work we show that for the large class of all quasistatic models of monotone type, solutions to the problem with microrotations are $\mathbb{H}^1$ well-posed. A similar result does not hold for the classical case without microrotations. For vanishing Cosserat effects we show also that the model with microrotations approximates the classical Prandtl-Reuss solution in an appropriate measure valued sense. |

Local in time regularity properties of the Navier-Stokes equations beyond Serrin's condition |
MSC: 76D05; 35Q30; 35B65 Let $u$ be a weak solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in a domain $\Omega \subset R^3$ and a time interval $[0,T)$, $0< T \leq \infty$, with initial value $u_0$, and vanishing external force. As is well known, global regularity of $u$ for general $u_0$ is an unsolved problem unless we pose additional assumptions on $u_0$ or on the solution $u$ itself such as Serrin's condition $\| u \|_{L^s(0,T;L^q(\Omega))} < \infty$ where $\frac{2}{s} + \frac{3}{q} =1$. In the present paper we prove several new local and global regularity properties by using assumptions beyond Serrin's condition e.g. as follows: If the norm $\|u\|_{L^r(0,T;L^q(\Omega))}$, with Serrin's number $\frac{2}{r} + \frac{3}{q} =1+\alpha$ $(\alpha>0)$ strictly larger than $1$, is sufficiently small, or if $u$ satisfies a {\it local leftward} $L^s(L^q(\Omega))$--condition for every $t\in(0,T)$, where $\frac{2}{s} + \frac{3}{q} =1$, then $u$ is regular in $(0,T)$. Further results deal with similar regularity conditions based on energy quantities only. |

We study the question when $G$ is the direct limit of the $G_n$'s in the category of Lie groups, topological groups, smooth manifolds, resp., topological spaces. Full answers are obtained for $G$ the group $Diff_c(M)$ of compactly supported $C^\infty$-diffeomorphisms of a $\sigma$-compact smooth manifold $M$; and for test function groups $C^\infty_c(M,H)$ of compactly supported smooth maps with values in a finite-dimensional Lie group $H$.

We further describe how regularity or local exponentiality of a Lie group can be used to obtain quite satisfying answers to some of the fundamental problems. These results are illustrated by specialization to some specific classes of Lie groups, such as direct limit groups, linear Lie groups, groups of smooth maps and groups of diffeomorphisms. |

Abelian topological groups with host algebras |
MSC: 46L05; 43A10; 43A65; 46L60; 22E65 The concept of a host algebra generalises that of a group $C^*$-algebra to groups which are not locally compact in the sense that its non-degenerate representations are in one-to-one correspondence with representations of the group under consideration. Here we consider the question of the existence of host algebras for abelian topological groups and also for multiplier representations. Our main negative result is essentially that a topological abelian group has a full host algebra (covering all its continuous unitary representations) if and only if it embeds into a locally compact group. On the positive side, we show that the canonical symplectic form on a countably dimensional complex vector space leads to an abelian group with multiplier for which a full host algebra exists. This provides a host algebra for the set of regular representations of the CCR algebra. |

Curvature estimates for graphs with prescribed mean curvature and flat normal bundle |

Using techniques of Schoen, Simon and Yau, and Ecker-Huisken, we derive the interior curvature estimate $$\sup_{\Sigma \cap B_R} |A|^2 \leq \frac{C}{R^2}$$ up to dimension $n \leq 5$, where $C$ is a constant depending on natural geometric data of $\Sigma$ only. This generalizes previous results of Smoczyk, Wang and Xin, and Wang for minimal graphs with flat normal bundle. |

The notion used here is similar but even more general than the one used in \cite{ama1} or \cite{gss}. Consequently the class of solutions is enlarged. To describe boundary conditions we restrict ourselves to more regular data. We introduce a Banach space admitting a restriction operator and containing the solutions according to such data. As a preparation we prove a weighted analogue to Bogowski's Theorem and extension theorems for functions defined on the boundary. |

MSC: 35Q30; 35D05; 76D05; 35J65 We investigate the stationary Navier-Stokes equations in Spaces with Muckenhoupt weights. The aim is to find a class of solutions as large as possible. We join the notation of very weak solutions in [1] and [10]. When estimating the nonlinear term the weighted context causes difficulties. For this reason we consider solutions in weighted Bessel-potential spaces. Thus using complex interpolation we establish a theory of solutions to the Stokes equations in weighted Bessel-potential spaces. |

Odd-dimensional orthogonal groups as amalgams of unitary groups. \\ Part 2: machine computations | In the first part, a characterization of central quotients of the group $\Spin(2n+1,q)$ is given for $n \geq 3$ and all odd prime powers $q$, with the exception of the cases $n=3$, $q\in{3,5,7,9}$. The present article treats these cases computationally, thus completing the Phan-type theorem for the group $\Spin(2n+1,q)$. |

Odd-dimensional orthogonal groups as amalgams of unitary groups. \\ Part 1: general simple connectedness | We extend the Phan theory described in previous articles to the last remaining infinite series of classical Chevalley groups over finite fields. Namely, we prove that the twin buildings for the group $\Spin(2n+1,q^2)$, $q$ odd, admit a unique unitary flip and that the corresponding flipflop geometry is simply connected for almost all finite fields $\Fqsq$. Applying standard methods from amalgam theory, this results in a characterization of central quotients of the group $\Spin(2n+1,q)$ by a Phan system of rank one and rank two subgroups. In the present first part of a series of two articles we present simple connectedness results for sufficiently large fields or sufficiently large rank. To be precise, the result stated in the present paper is proved for all cases but $n=3$ and $q \in {3, 5, 7, 9}$, the remaining cases are dealt with in the sequel \cite{Part2} computationally. |

The complete Phan-type theorem for $\mathrm{Sp}(2n,q)$ | Previous articles give a characterization of central quotients of the group $\mathrm{Sp}(2n,q)$ for $n \geq 3$ and all prime powers $q$ up to some small cases that are left open. The present article fills in this gap, thus providing the definitive version of the Phan-type theorem for $\Sp(2n,q)$. |

Existence and Exponential Stability in $L^r$-spaces of Stationary Navier-Stokes Flows with Prescribed Flux in Infinite Cylindrical Domains |
MSC: 35Q30; 76D05; 76D07; 76E99; 35B35 We prove existence, uniqueness and exponential stability of stationary Navier-Stokes flows with prescribed flux in an unbounded cylinder of $R^n, n\geq 3,$ with several exits to infinity provided the total flux and external force are sufficiently small. The proofs are based on analytic semigroup theory, perturbation theory and $L^r-L^q$-estimates of a perturbation of the Stokes operator in $L^q$-spaces. |

Szegö limit theorems for operators with almost periodic diagonals |
MSC: 47B36; 47A75; 47B35 The classical Szegö theorems study the asymptotic behaviour of the determinants of the finite sections $P_n T(a) P_n$ of Toeplitz operators, i.e., of operators which have constant entries along each diagonal. We generalize these results to operators which have almost periodic functions on their diagonals. |

Stationary Navier-Stokes flow around a rotating obstacle |
MSC: 35Q30; 76D05 Consider a viscous incompressible fluid filling the whole 3-dimensional space exterior to a rotating body with constant angular velocity $\omega$. By using a coordinate system attached to the body, the problem is reduced to an equivalent one in a fixed exterior domain. The reduced equation involves the crucial drift operator $(\omega\wedge x)\cdot\nabla$, which is not subordinate to the usual Stokes operator. This paper addresses stationary flows to the reduced problem with an external force $f=\mbox{div $F$}$, that is, time-periodic flows to the original one. Generalizing previous results of G. P. Galdi we show the existence of a unique solution $(\nabla u,p)$ in the class $L_{3/2,\infty}$ when both $F\in L_{3/2,\infty}$ and $\omega$ are small enough; here $L_{3/2,\infty}$ is the weak-$L_{3/2}$ space. |

MSC: 65C30; 60H35; 65C20; 68U20 A continuous extension of the class of stochastic Runge--Kutta methods for weak approximation is introduced. Order conditions for continuous Runge--Kutta schemes of weak order one and two for the approximation of Itô stochastic differential equations with respect to a multi--dimensional Wiener process are stated. Further, a full classification of the coefficients for continuous stochastic Runge--Kutta schemes of order one and two is calculated and coefficients for optimal schemes are presented. |

MSC: 81Q10; 47B36; 46N50 The paper is devoted to the study of the essential spectrum of discrete Schrödinger operators on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^{N}$ by means of the limit operators method. This method has been applied by one of the authors to describe the essential spectrum of (continuous) electromagnetic Schrödinger operators, square-root Klein-Gordon operators, and Dirac operators under quite weak assumptions on the behavior of the magnetic and electric potential at infinity. The present paper is aimed to illustrate the applicability and effectivity of the limit operators method to discrete problems as well. We consider the following classes of the discrete Schrödinger operators: 1) operators with slowly oscillating at infinity potentials, 2) operators with periodic and semi-periodic potentials; 3) Schrödinger operators which are discrete quantum analogs of the acoustic propagators for waveguides; 4) operators with potentials having an infinite set of discontinuities; and 5) three-particle Schrödinger operators which describe the motion of two particles around a heavy nuclei on the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^3$. |

Equivalences of Smooth and Continuous Principal Bundles with Infinite-Dimensional Structure Group |
MSC: 22E65; 55R10; 57R10 This paper is on the equivalence of continuous and smooth principal bundles. Throughout the text, let K be a a Lie group, modeled on a locally convex space, and M be a finite-dimensional paracompact manifold with corners. We show that each continuous principal K-bundle over M is continuously equivalent to a smooth one and that two smooth principal K-bundles over M which are continuously equivalent are also smoothly equivalent. In the concluding section, we relate our results to neighboring topics. |

MSC: 58C15; 26E15; 26E30; 46S10; 47H10; 58C20 We prove an implicit function theorem for $C^k$-maps from arbitrary topological vector spaces over valued fields to Banach spaces (for $k \geq 2$). As a tool, we show the $C^k$-dependence of fixed points on parameters for suitable families of contractions of a Banach space. Similar results are obtained for $k$ times strictly differentiable maps, and for $k$ times Lipschitz differentiable maps. In the real case, our results subsume an implicit function theorem for Keller $C^k_c$-maps from arbitrary topological vector spaces to Banach spaces. |

Solutions to Arithmetic Convolution Equations |
MSC: 11A25; 46H30 In the complex algebra $A$ of arithmetic functions $g: N \to C$, endowed with the usual pointwise linear operations and the Dirichlet convolution, let $g^{*k}$ denote the convolution power $g*\cdots*g$ with $k$ factors $g \in A$. We investigate the solvability of polynomial equations of the form $a_d*g^{*d}+a_{d-1}*g^{*(d-1)}+\cdots+a_1*g+a_0 = 0$ with fixed coefficients $a_d,a_{d-1},\ldots,a_1,a_0 \in A$. In some cases the solutions have specific properties and can be determined explicitly. We show that the property of the coefficients to belong to convergent Dirichlet series transfers to those solutions $g \in A$, whose values $g(1)$ are simple zeros of the polynomial $a_d(1)z^d+a_{d-1}(1)z^{d-1}+\cdots+a_1(1)z+a_0(1)$. We extend this to systems of convolution equations, which need not be of polynomial type. |

The Resolvent Problem and $H^\infty$-calculus of the Stokes Operator in Unbounded Cylinders |
MSC: 35Q30; 76D07 It is proved that the Stokes operator in $L^q$-space on an infinite cylindrical domain of $R^n,¸n\geq 3,$ with several exits to infinity generates a bounded and exponentially decaying analytic semigroup and admits a bounded $H^\infty$-calculus. For the resolvent estimates, the Stokes resolvent system with a prescribed divergence in an infinite straight cylinder with bounded cross-section $\Sigma$ is studied in $L^q(R;L^r_\omega(\Sigma))$ where $1< q , r<\infty$ and $\omega\in A_r(R^{n-1})$ is an arbitrary Muckenhoupt weight. The proofs use cut-off techniques and the theory of Schauder decomposition of {\em UMD} spaces based on ${\cal R}$-boundedness of operator families and on square function estimates involving Muckenhoupt weights. |

MSC: 57T20; 57S05; 81R10; 55P62 This paper is on the connecting homomorphism in the long exact homotopy sequence of the evaluation fibration $\tx{ev}_{p_{0}}:C(P,K)^{K}\to K$, where $C(P,K)^{K}\cong\Gau(\cP)$ is the gauge group of a continuous principal $K$-bundle $P$ over a closed orientable surface or a sphere. We show that in this cases the connecting homomorphism in the corresponding long exact homotopy sequence is given in terms of the Samelson product. As applications, we exploit this correspondence to get an explicit formula for $\pi_{2}(\Gau(\cP_{k}))$, where $\cP_{k}$ denotes the principal \mbox{$\bS^{3}$-bundle} over $\bS^{4}$ of Chern number $k$ and derive explicit formulae for the rational homotopy groups $\pi_{n}(\Gau(\cP))\otimes \Q$. |

Noise sequences of infinite matrices and their applications to the characterization of the canonical phase and box localization observables | Noise sequences of infinite matrices associated with covariant phase and box localization observables are defined and determined. The canonical observables are characterized within the relevant classes of observables as those with asymptotically minimal of minimal noise, i.e., the noise tending to $0$ or having the value $0$. |
2434 | 17.01.2006 | Wille, Rudolf | Methods of Conceptual Knowledge Processing |
MSC: 03B The offered Methods of Conceptual Knowledge Processing are procedures which are well-planed to mean and purpose and therewith lead to skills for solving practical tasks. The used means and skills have been mainly created as translations of mathematical means and skills of Formal Concept Analysis. Those transdisciplinary translations may be understood as transformations from mathematical thinking, dealing with potential realities, to logical thinking, dealing with actual realities. Each of the 38 presented methods is discussed in a general language of logical nature, while citations give links to the underlying mathematical background. Applications of the methods are demonstrated by concrete examples mostly taken from the literature to which explicit references are given. |
2433 | 09.01.2006 | Neeb, Karl-Hermann | Monastir Summer School: Infinite-Dimensional Lie Groups |
MSC: 22E65 These are lecture notes of a course given at a summer school in Monastir in July 2005. The main purpose of this course is to present some of the main ideas of infinite-dimensional Lie theory and to explain how it differs from the finite-dimensional theory. In the introductory section, we present some of the main types of infinite-dimensional Lie groups: linear Lie groups, groups of smooth maps and groups of diffeomorphisms. We then turn in some more detail to manifolds modeled on locally convex spaces and the corresponding calculus (Section II). In Section III, we present some basic Lie theory for locally convex Lie groups. The Fundamental Theorem for Lie group-valued-functions on manifolds and some of its immediate applications are discussed in Section IV. For many infinite-dimensional groups, the exponential function behaves worse than for finite-dimensional ones or Banach--Lie groups. Section V is devoted to the class of locally exponential Lie groups, i.e., those for which the exponential function is a local diffeomorphism in 0. We conclude these notes with a brief discussion of the integrability problem for locally convex Lie algebras: When is a locally convex Lie algebra the Lie algebra of a global Lie group? |

The Basic Theorem on Preconcept Lattices |
MSC: 03B; 06D10 Preconcept Lattices are identified to be (up to isomorphism) the completely distributive complete lattices in which the supremum of all atoms is equal or greater than the infimum of all coatoms. This is a consequence of the Basic Theorem on Preconcept Lattices, which also offers means for checking line diagrams of preconcept lattices. |
