Updated 06/Dec/2011: This paper is now published online in Bulletin Brazilian Math Soc, Volume 42, Number 4, 853-867: http://www.springerlink.com/content/t623n03m400p6870/ Finally I had the courage to revise my paper on the entropy of geometric structures. The revised version is here (pdf file). Arxiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.5249 This paper is relatively simple, but I still like it very . . . → Read More: Entropy of geometric structures Updated 21/Oct/2011: The editors just informed us that this paper has been officially accepted for publication in Advances Math. We have revised our paper (with Eva Miranda and Philippe Monnier) on the rigidity of Hamiltonian actions of compact semisimple Lie groups on Poisson manifolds. The revised version is available here. This paper was submitted . . . → Read More: Rigidity of Hamiltonian actions (revised version) Source: Human Rights Watch (Bangkok) – Eight Vietnamese writers are among a diverse group of 48 writers from 24 countries who have received the prestigious Hellman/Hammett award recognizing writers who demonstrate courage and conviction in the face of political persecution, Human Rights Watch said today [14/Sep/2011] “Vietnamese writers are frequently threatened, assaulted, or even . . . → Read More: Eight Vietnamese win Hellman/Hammett Human Rights Award We want to buy some books on financial mathematics and bring them to Vietnam for the thematic school in Doson (24/Oct-01/Nov/2011).After the school, these books will be donated to a library in Hanoi. I need a list of best books to buy. If you have any suggestion, please let me know by writing a . . . → Read More: List of books to be bought for the school on financial mathematics Finally, “Lectures on Poisson Geometry”, which is a collection of lectures on various aspects of Poisson geometry, edited by T. Ratiu, A. Weinstein, and myself, has appeared as Volume 17 of the series Geometry and Topology Monographs: http://pjm.math.berkeley.edu/gtm/2011/17/ Poisson geometry is a rapidly growing subject, with many interactions and applications in areas of mathematics . . . → Read More: Lectures on Poisson Geometry (Geometry and Topology Monographs, Vol. 17) Last updated: 07/Apr/2011 The purpose of this note is to study nondegenerate singularities of integrable non-Hamiltonian systems. In particular we want to extend the Vey-Eliasson theorem about the local linearization of nondegenerate singularities of integrable Hamiltonian systems to the non-Hamiltonian case, and show that, in the non-Hamiltonian case, nondegenerate singularities are also rigid and . . . → Read More: Nondegenerate singularities of integrable non-Hamiltonian systems Last updated: 01/Apr/2011 This is a research project on which a PhD student of mine is working with me. Please don’t steal the ideas and results that I discuss here. The problem is to study the topology and geometry of proper non-Hamiltonian integrable dynamical systems on manifold. A non-Hamiltonian integrable system consists of: * . . . → Read More: Topology of integrable non-Hamiltonian systems A general philosophy is that, mathematical objects have symmetry groups, and can be classified by these groups. The Galois theory is an example. Transformation groups or groupoids, linear representation theory, classification of metrics by holonomy groups, etc., are also instances of this philosophy. There are objects, which a-priori have no symmetries, but still have . . . → Read More: Hidden symmetries of mathematical objects (This is a report that I made for a seminar on financial mathematics and investing, and a small investment fund created by the participants of this seminar.

The rigidity phenomenon here is quite natural. It has been known for a long time that compact group . . . → Read More: Rigidity of Hamiltonian actions I’m so glad to have finished my little paper on entropy of geometric structures today, just before the deadline (which is the last day of 2010). The paper can be seen here in PDF format: Entropy of Geometric Structures. Abstract: We give a notion of entropy for general gemetric structures, which generalizes well-known notions . . . → Read More: The paper on entropy of geometric structures is finally done! Last updated: 22/Oct/2010 (This is the first draft of a note to be submitted to a special issue of the Bulletin of the Brazilian Mathematical Society) Geometric structures In this note, by a geometric structure, we mean a normed vector bundle $A \to M$ over a vector bundle (i.e. on each fiber there is . . . → Read More: Entropy of geometric structures Last updated: 27/Oct/2010 CKN stands for Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg. The theory is about partial regularity of solutions of INS. One should probably add the name of Scheffer, who introduced the concepts that CKN improved/generalized. The main result is that the (parabolic) 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure of the (hypothetical) singular set in space-time is zero (which means that, . . . → Read More: Notes on INS (14): CKN theory |
