Download or read book Confoliations written by Y. Eliashberg and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1998 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the first steps of a theory of confoliations designed to link geometry and topology of three-dimensional contact structures with the geometry and topology of codimension-one foliations on three-dimensional manifolds. Developing almost independently, these theories at first glance belonged to two different worlds: The theory of foliations is part of topology and dynamical systems, while contact geometry is the odd-dimensional "brother" of symplectic geometry. However, both theories have developed a number of striking similarities. Confoliations--which interpolate between contact structures and codimension-one foliations--should help us to understand better links between the two theories. These links provide tools for transporting results from one field to the other.
Book Synopsis Collected Works of William P. Thurston with Commentary by : Benson Farb
Download or read book Collected Works of William P. Thurston with Commentary written by Benson Farb and published by American Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2023-06-05 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Thurston's work has had a profound influence on mathematics. He connected whole mathematical subjects in entirely new ways and changed the way mathematicians think about geometry, topology, foliations, group theory, dynamical systems, and the way these areas interact. His emphasis on understanding and imagination in mathematical learning and thinking are integral elements of his distinctive legacy. This four-part collection brings together in one place Thurston's major writings, many of which are appearing in publication for the first time. Volumes I–III contain commentaries by the Editors. Volume IV includes a preface by Steven P. Kerckhoff. Volume I contains William Thurston's papers on foliations, mapping classes groups, and differential geometry.
Book Synopsis European Congress of Mathematics by : Carles Casacuberta
Download or read book European Congress of Mathematics written by Carles Casacuberta and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second volume of the proceedings of the third European Congress of Mathematics. Volume I presents the speeches delivered at the Congress, the list of lectures, and short summaries of the achievements of the prize winners as well as papers by plenary and parallel speakers. The second volume collects articles by prize winners and speakers of the mini-symposia. This two-volume set thus gives an overview of the state of the art in many fields of mathematics and is therefore of interest to every professional mathematician.
Book Synopsis Heisenberg Calculus and Spectral Theory of Hypoelliptic Operators on Heisenberg Manifolds by : Raphael Ponge
Download or read book Heisenberg Calculus and Spectral Theory of Hypoelliptic Operators on Heisenberg Manifolds written by Raphael Ponge and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir deals with the hypoelliptic calculus on Heisenberg manifolds, including CR and contact manifolds. In this context the main differential operators at stake include the Hormander's sum of squares, the Kohn Laplacian, the horizontal sublaplacian, the CR conformal operators of Gover-Graham and the contact Laplacian. These operators cannot be elliptic and the relevant pseudodifferential calculus to study them is provided by the Heisenberg calculus of Beals-Greiner andTaylor.

Book Synopsis Foliations: Geometry And Dynamics - Proceedings Of The Euroworkshop by : Lawrence Conlon
Download or read book Foliations: Geometry And Dynamics - Proceedings Of The Euroworkshop written by Lawrence Conlon and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2002-02-01 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains surveys and research articles regarding different aspects of the theory of foliation. The main aspects concern the topology of foliations of low-dimensional manifolds, the geometry of foliated Riemannian manifolds and the dynamical properties of foliations. Among the surveys are lecture notes devoted to the analysis of some operator algebras on foliated manifolds and the theory of confoliations (objects defined recently by W Thurston and Y Eliashberg, situated between foliations and contact structures). Among the research articles one can find a detailed proof of an unpublished theorem (due to Duminy) concerning ends of leaves in exceptional minimal sets.

Book Synopsis Contact and Symplectic Geometry by : Charles Benedict Thomas
Download or read book Contact and Symplectic Geometry written by Charles Benedict Thomas and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-09-28 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents some of the lectures and research during the special programme held at the Newton Institute in 1994. The two parts each contain a mix of substantial expository articles and research papers that outline important and topical ideas. Many of the results have not been presented before, and the lectures on Floer homology is the first avaliable in book form.Symplectic methods are one of the most active areas of research in mathematics currently, and this volume will attract much attention.
Book Synopsis Low Dimensional Topology by : Tomasz Mrowka
Download or read book Low Dimensional Topology written by Tomasz Mrowka and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low-dimensional topology has long been a fertile area for the interaction of many different disciplines of mathematics, including differential geometry, hyperbolic geometry, combinatorics, representation theory, global analysis, classical mechanics, and theoretical physics. The Park City Mathematics Institute summer school in 2006 explored in depth the most exciting recent aspects of this interaction, aimed at a broad audience of both graduate students and researchers. The present volume is based on lectures presented at the summer school on low-dimensional topology. These notes give fresh, concise, and high-level introductions to these developments, often with new arguments not found elsewhere. The volume will be of use both to graduate students seeking to enter the field of low-dimensional topology and to senior researchers wishing to keep up with current developments. The volume begins with notes based on a special lecture by John Milnor about the history of the topology of manifolds. It also contains notes from lectures by Cameron Gordon on the basics of three-manifold topology and surgery problems, Mikhail Khovanov on his homological invariants for knots, John Etnyre on contact geometry, Ron Fintushel and Ron Stern on constructions of exotic four-manifolds, David Gabai on the hyperbolic geometry and the ending lamination theorem, Zoltan Szabo on Heegaard Floer homology for knots and three manifolds, and John Morgan on Hamilton's and Perelman's work on Ricci flow and geometrization.

Book Synopsis Foliations and the Geometry of 3-Manifolds by : Danny Calegari
Download or read book Foliations and the Geometry of 3-Manifolds written by Danny Calegari and published by Oxford University Press on Demand. This book was released on 2007-05-17 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique reference, aimed at research topologists, gives an exposition of the 'pseudo-Anosov' theory of foliations of 3-manifolds. This theory generalizes Thurston's theory of surface automorphisms and reveals an intimate connection between dynamics, geometry and topology in 3 dimensions. Significant themes returned to throughout the text include the importance of geometry, especially the hyperbolic geometry of surfaces, the importance of monotonicity, especially in1-dimensional and co-dimensional dynamics, and combinatorial approximation, using finite combinatorical objects such as train-tracks, branched surfaces and hierarchies to carry more complicated continuous objects.
