48 results for zero sets

We introduce the concept of hereditarily non uniformly perfect sets, compact sets for which no compact subset is uniformly perfect, and compare them with the following: Hausdorff dimension zero sets, logarithmic capacity zero sets, Lebesgue 2-dimensional measure zero sets, and porous sets. In particular, we give an exa…

We study robust properties of zero sets of continuous maps f:XRnf:X\to\mathbb{R}^n. Formally, we analyze the family Zr(f)={g1(0):gf<r}Z_r(f)=\{g^{-1}(0):\,\,\|g-f\|<r\} of all zero sets of all continuous maps gg closer to ff than rr in the max-norm. The fundamental geometric property of Zr(f)Z_r(f) is that all its zero sets lie outside o…

We describe the local conformal geometry of a Lorentzian spin manifold (M,g)(M,g) admitting a twistor spinor φφ with zero. Moreover, we describe the shape of the zero set of φφ. If φφ has isolated zeros then the metric gg is locally conformally equivalent to a static monopole. In the other case the zero set consists o…

We consider a Riemannian spin manifold (M,g) with a fixed spin structure. The zero sets of solutions of generalized Dirac equations on M play an important role in some questions arising in conformal spin geometry and in mathematical physics. In this setting the mass endomorphism has been defined as the constant term in…

With the recent renaissance of deep convolution neural networks, encouraging breakthroughs have been achieved on the supervised recognition tasks, where each class has sufficient training data and fully annotated training data. However, to scale the recognition to a large number of classes with few or now training samp…

Mandelbrot set is a closure of the set of zeroes of resultantx(Fn,Fm)resultant_x(F_n,F_m) for iterated maps Fn(x)=fn(x)xF_n(x)=f^{\circ n}(x)-x in the moduli space of maps f(x)f(x). The wonderful fact is that for a given nn all zeroes are not chaotically scattered around the moduli space, but lie on smooth curves, with just a few cusps, located…

Let a torus T act effectively on a compact connected cooriented contact manifold, and let Psi be the natural momentum map on the symplectization. We prove that, if dim T > 2, the union of the origin with the image of Psi is a convex polyhedral cone, the non-zero level sets of Psi are connected (while the zero level set…

In this paper we study some global properties of static potentials on asymptotically flat 33-manifolds (M,g)(M,g) in the nonvacuum setting. Heuristically, a static potential ff represents the (signed) length along MM of an irrotational timelike Killing vector field, which can degenerate on surfaces corresponding to the…

In this paper we consider SU(2)\rm SU(2) monopoles on an asymptotically conical, oriented, Riemannian 33-manifold with one end.

We construct, for any ``good'' Cantor set FF of Sn1S^{n-1}, an immersion of the sphere SnS^n with set of points of zero Gauss-Kronecker curvature equal to F×D1F\times D^{1}, where D1D^{1} is the 1-dimensional disk.

A vector field X on a manifold M with possibly nonempty boundary is inward if it generates a unique local semiflow ΦXΦ^X. A compact relatively open set K in the zero set of X is a block. The Poincaré-Hopf index is generalized to an index for blocks that may meet the boundary. A block with nonzero index is essential. Le…

The aim of this paper is to introduce a group containing the mapping class groups of all genus zero surfaces. Roughly speaking, such a group is intended to be a discrete analogue of the diffeomorphism group of the circle. One defines indeed a {\it universal mapping class group of genus zero}, denoted $\B$. The latter i…
