Pre-weighted homogeneous map germs finite determinacy and topological triviality

In this paper we introduce the notion of G-pre-weighted homogeneous map germ, (G is one of Mather's groups A or K.) and show that any G-pre-weighted homogeneous map germ is G-finitely determined. We also give an explicit order, based on the Newton polyhedron of a pre-weighted homogeneous germ of function, such that the topological structure is preserved after perturbations by terms of higher order.

Boundary of the rauzy fractal sets in ℝ×ℂgenerated by p(x) = x 4- x 3 - x 2 -x- 1

We study the boundary of the 3-dimensional Rauzy fractal ε ⊂ ℝ×ℂ generated by the polynomial P(x) Dx 4-x 3-x 2-x-1. The finite automaton characterizing the boundary of ε is given explicitly. As a consequence we prove that the set ε has 18 neighboors where 6 of them intersect the central tile ε in a point. Our construction shows that the boundary is generated by an iterated function system starting with 2 compact sets.

On exponential stability of functional differential equations with variable impulse perturbations

We consider a class of functional differential equations subject to perturbations, which vary in time, and we study the exponential stability of solutions of these equations using the theory of generalized ordinary differential equations and Lyapunov functionals. We introduce the concept of variational exponential stability for generalized ordinary differential equations and we develop the theory in this direction by establishing conditions for the trivial solutions of generalized ordinary differential equations to be exponentially stable. Then, we apply the results to get corresponding ones for impulsive functional differential equations. We also present an example of a delay differential equation with Perron integrable right-hand side where we apply our result.

INTEGRAL FUNCTIONALS ON C*-ALGEBRA OF VECTOR-VALUED REGULATED FUNCTIONS

In this paper we deal with the notion of regulated functions with values in a C*-algebra A and present examples using a special bi-dimensional C*-algebra of triangular matrices. We consider the Dushnik integral for these functions and shows that a convenient choice of the integrator function produces an integral homomorphism on the C*-algebra of all regulated functions ([a, b], A). Finally we construct a family of linear integral functionals on this C*-algebra.

Lewis Carroll, a educação e o ensino de geometria na Inglaterra vitoriana

Research partly motivated by Lewis Carroll's Euclid and his modern rivals (1879) portuguese translation, this paper presents some hermeneutical remarks taken as necessary to understand the context in which such book was produced. The paper focuses particularly on education, in general, and on the teaching of mathematics and Geometry in victorian England.

Szegö polynomials: quadrature rules on the unit circle and on [-1, 1]

We consider some of the relations that exist between real Szegö polynomials and certain para-orthogonal polynomials defined on the unit circle, which are again related to certain orthogonal polynomials on [-1, 1] through the transformation x = (z1/2+z1/2)/2. Using these relations we study the interpolatory quadrature rule based on the zeros of polynomials which are linear combinations of the orthogonal polynomials on [-1, 1]. In the case of any symmetric quadrature rule on [-1, 1], its associated quadrature rule on the unit circle is also given.
