Il teorema della mappa di Riemann

Il teorema della mappa di Riemann è un risultato fondamentale dell'analisi complessa che afferma l'esistenza di un biolomorfismo tra un qualsiasi dominio semplicemente connesso incluso strettamente nel piano ed il disco unità. Si tratta di un teorema di grande importanza e generalità, dato che non si fa alcuna ipotesi sul bordo del dominio considerato. Inoltre ha applicazioni in diverse aree della matematica, ad esempio nella topologia: può infatti essere usato per dimostrare che due domini semplicemente connessi del piano sono tra loro omeomorfi. Presentiamo in questa tesi due diverse dimostrazioni del teorema.

Analysis of the Kohn Laplacian on the Heisenberg Group and on Cauchy-Riemann Manifolds

The purpose of this study is to analyse the regularity of a differential operator, the Kohn Laplacian, in two settings: the Heisenberg group and the strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds. The Heisenberg group is defined as a space of dimension 2n+1 with a product. It can be seen in two different ways: as a Lie group and as the boundary of the Siegel UpperHalf Space. On the Heisenberg group there exists the tangential CR complex. From this we define its adjoint and the Kohn-Laplacian. Then we obtain estimates for the Kohn-Laplacian and find its solvability and hypoellipticity. For stating L^p and Holder estimates, we talk about homogeneous distributions. In the second part we start working with a manifold M of real dimension 2n+1. We say that M is a CR manifold if some properties are satisfied. More, we say that a CR manifold M is strongly pseudoconvex if the Levi form defined on M is positive defined. Since we will show that the Heisenberg group is a model for the strongly pseudo-convex CR manifolds, we look for an osculating Heisenberg structure in a neighborhood of a point in M, and we want this structure to change smoothly from a point to another. For that, we define Normal Coordinates and we study their properties. We also examinate different Normal Coordinates in the case of a real hypersurface with an induced CR structure. Finally, we define again the CR complex, its adjoint and the Laplacian operator on M. We study these new operators showing subelliptic estimates. For that, we don't need M to be pseudo-complex but we ask less, that is, the Z(q) and the Y(q) conditions. This provides local regularity theorems for Laplacian and show its hypoellipticity on M.

Eulero, Mascheroni e Riemann costanti ed ipotesi

In questa tesi si descrivono la funzione zeta di Riemann, la costante di Eulero-Mascheroni e la funzione gamma di Eulero. Si riportano i legami tra questi e si illustra brevemente l'ipotesi di Riemann degli zeri non banali della funzione zeta, ovvero l'ipotesi della distribuzione dei numeri primi nella retta dei numeri reali.

Alternative derivative expansion in Functional RG and application

We give a brief review of the Functional Renormalization method in quantum field theory, which is intrinsically non perturbative, in terms of both the Polchinski equation for the Wilsonian action and the Wetterich equation for the generator of the proper verteces. For the latter case we show a simple application for a theory with one real scalar field within the LPA and LPA' approximations. For the first case, instead, we give a covariant "Hamiltonian" version of the Polchinski equation which consists in doing a Legendre transform of the flow for the corresponding effective Lagrangian replacing arbitrary high order derivative of fields with momenta fields. This approach is suitable for studying new truncations in the derivative expansion. We apply this formulation for a theory with one real scalar field and, as a novel result, derive the flow equations for a theory with N real scalar fields with the O(N) internal symmetry. Within this new approach we analyze numerically the scaling solutions for N=1 in d=3 (critical Ising model), at the leading order in the derivative expansion with an infinite number of couplings, encoded in two functions V(phi) and Z(phi), obtaining an estimate for the quantum anomalous dimension with a 10% accuracy (confronting with Monte Carlo results).
