The quotient of a finite-dimensional Euclidean space by a finite linear group inherits different structures from the initial space, e.g. a topology, a metric and a piecewise linear structure. The question when such a quotient is a manifold leads to the study of finite groups generated by reflections and rotations, i.e. by orthogonal transformations whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two. We classify such groups and thereby complete earlier results by M. A. Mikhaîlova from the 70s and 80s. Moreover, we show that a finite group is generated by reflections and) rotations if and only if the corresponding quotient is a Lipschitz-, or equivalently, a piecewise linear manifold (with boundary). For the proof of this statement we show in addition that each piecewise linear manifold of dimension up to four on which a finite group acts by piecewise linear homeomorphisms admits a compatible smooth structure with respect to which the group acts smoothly. This solves a challenge by Thurston and confirms a conjecture by Kwasik and Lee. In the topological category a counterexample to the above mentioned characterization is given by the binary icosahedral group. We show that this is the only counterexample up to products. In particular, we answer the question by Davis of when the underlying space of an orbifold is a topological manifold. As a corollary of our results we generalize a fixed point theorem by Steinberg on unitary reflection groups to finite groups generated by reflections and rotations. As an application thereof we answer a question by Petrunin on quotients of spheres.

This paper presents an existence and localization result of unbounded solutions for a second-order differential equation on the half-line with functional boundary conditions. By applying unbounded upper and lower solutions, Green's functions and Schauder fixed point theorem, the existence of at least one solution is shown for the above problem. One example and one application to an Emden-Fowler equation are shown to illustrate our results.

A continuous version of the hierarchical spherical model at dimension d=4 is investigated. Two limit distributions of the block spin variable X(gamma), normalized with exponents gamma = d + 2 and gamma=d at and above the critical temperature, are established. These results are proven by solving certain evolution equations corresponding to the renormalization group (RG) transformation of the O(N) hierarchical spin model of block size L(d) in the limit L down arrow 1 and N ->infinity. Starting far away from the stationary Gaussian fixed point the trajectories of these dynamical system pass through two different regimes with distinguishable crossover behavior. An interpretation of this trajectories is given by the geometric theory of functions which describe precisely the motion of the Lee-Yang zeroes. The large-N limit of RG transformation with L(d) fixed equal to 2, at the criticality, has recently been investigated in both weak and strong (coupling) regimes by Watanabe (J. Stat. Phys. 115:1669-1713, 2004) . Although our analysis deals only with N = infinity case, it complements various aspects of that work.

In this work, we show for which odd-dimensional homotopy spherical space forms the Borsuk-Ulam theorem holds. These spaces are the quotient of a homotopy odd-dimensional sphere by a free action of a finite group. Also, the types of these spaces which admit a free involution are characterized. The case of even-dimensional homotopy spherical space forms is basically known.

Dans ce mémoire, nous étudierons quelques propriétés algébriques, géométriques et topologiques des surfaces de Riemann compactes. Deux grand sujets seront traités. Tout d'abord, en utilisant le fait que toute surface de Riemann compacte de genre g plus grand ou égal à 2 possède un nombre fini de points de Weierstrass, nous allons pouvoir conclure que ces surfaces possèdent un nombre fini d'automorphismes. Ensuite, nous allons étudier de plus près la formule de trace d'Eichler. Ce théorème nous permet de trouver le caractère d'un automorphisme agissant sur l'espace des q-différentielles holomorphes. Nous commencerons notre étude en utilisant la quartique de Klein. Nous effectuerons un exemple de calcul utilisant le théorème d'Eichler, ce qui nous permettra de nous familiariser avec l'énoncé du théorème. Finalement, nous allons démontrer la formule de trace d'Eichler, en prenant soin de traiter le cas où l'automorphisme agit sans point fixe séparément du cas où l'automorphisme possède des points fixes.

Disturbances of arbitrary amplitude are superposed on a basic flow which is assumed to be steady and either (a) two-dimensional, homogeneous, and incompressible (rotating or non-rotating) or (b) stably stratified and quasi-geostrophic. Flow over shallow topography is allowed in either case. The basic flow, as well as the disturbance, is assumed to be subject neither to external forcing nor to dissipative processes like viscosity. An exact, local ‘wave-activity conservation theorem’ is derived in which the density A and flux F are second-order ‘wave properties’ or ‘disturbance properties’, meaning that they are O(a2) in magnitude as disturbance amplitude a [rightward arrow] 0, and that they are evaluable correct to O(a2) from linear theory, to O(a3) from second-order theory, and so on to higher orders in a. For a disturbance in the form of a single, slowly varying, non-stationary Rossby wavetrain, $\overline{F}/\overline{A}$ reduces approximately to the Rossby-wave group velocity, where (${}^{-}$) is an appropriate averaging operator. F and A have the formal appearance of Eulerian quantities, but generally involve a multivalued function the correct branch of which requires a certain amount of Lagrangian information for its determination. It is shown that, in a certain sense, the construction of conservable, quasi-Eulerian wave properties like A is unique and that the multivaluedness is inescapable in general. The connection with the concepts of pseudoenergy (quasi-energy), pseudomomentum (quasi-momentum), and ‘Eliassen-Palm wave activity’ is noted. The relationship of this and similar conservation theorems to dynamical fundamentals and to Arnol'd's nonlinear stability theorems is discussed in the light of recent advances in Hamiltonian dynamics. These show where such conservation theorems come from and how to construct them in other cases. An elementary proof of the Hamiltonian structure of two-dimensional Eulerian vortex dynamics is put on record, with explicit attention to the boundary conditions. The connection between Arnol'd's second stability theorem and the suppression of shear and self-tuning resonant instabilities by boundary constraints is discussed, and a finite-amplitude counterpart to Rayleigh's inflection-point theorem noted

Let f: M -> M be a fiber-preserving map where S -> M -> B is a bundle and S is a closed surface. We study the abelianized obstruction, which is a cohomology class in dimension 2, to deform f to a fixed point free map by a fiber-preserving homotopy. The vanishing of this obstruction is only a necessary condition in order to have such deformation, but in some cases it is sufficient. We describe this obstruction and we prove that the vanishing of this class is equivalent to the existence of solution of a system of equations over a certain group ring with coefficients given by Fox derivatives.
