Semigrupos numéricos

Um semigrupo numérico é um submonoide de (N, +) tal que o seu complementar em N é finito. Neste trabalho estudamos alguns invariantes de um semigrupo numérico S tais como: multiplicidade, dimensão de imersão, número de Frobenius, falhas e conjunto Apéry de S. Caracterizamos uma apresentação minimal para um semigrupo numérico S e descrevemos um método algorítmico para determinar esta apresentação. Definimos um semigrupo numérico irredutível como um semigrupo numérico que não pode ser expresso como intersecção de dois semigrupos numéricos que o contenham propriamente. A finalizar este trabalho, estudamos os semigrupos numéricos irredutíveis e obtemos a decomposição de um semigrupo numérico em irredutíveis. ABSTRACT: A numerical semigroup is a submonoid of (N, +) such that its complement of N is finite. ln this work we study some invariants of a numerical semigroup S such as: multiplicity, embedding dimension, Frobenius number, gaps and Apéry set of S. We characterize a minimal presentation of a numerical semigroup S and describe an algorithmic procedure which allows us to compute a minimal presentation of S. We define an irreducible numerical semigroup as a numerical semigroup that cannot be expressed as the intersection of two numerical semigroups properly containing it. Concluding this work, we study and characterize irreducible numerical semigroups, and describe methods for computing decompositions of a numerical semigroup into irreducible numerical semigroups.

Localization of handwritten text in documents using moment invariants and Delaunay triangulation

This paper describes an approach based on Zernike moments and Delaunay triangulation for localization of hand-written text in machine printed text documents. The Zernike moments of the image are first evaluated and we classify the text as hand-written using the nearest neighbor classifier. These features are independent of size, slant, orientation, translation and other variations in handwritten text. We then use Delaunay triangulation to reclassify the misclassified text regions. When imposing Delaunay triangulation on the centroid points of the connected components, we extract features based on the triangles and reclassify the text. We remove the noise components in the document as part of the preprocessing step so this method works well on noisy documents. The success rate of the method is found to be 86%. Also for specific hand-written elements such as signatures or similar text the accuracy is found to be even higher at 93%.

On Application Of The Method Of Kinetic Invariants To The Description Of Dissolution Accompanied By A Chemical Reaction

The dissolution, accompanied by chemical reaction, of monodisperse solid particles has been analysed. The resulting model, which accounts for the variation of mass transfer coefficient with the size of the dissolving particles, yields an approximate analytical form of a kinetic function. Rigorous numerical and approximate analytical solutions have been obtained for the governing system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The transient nature of the dissolution process as well as the accuracy of the analytical solution is brought out by the rigorous numerical solution. The analytical solution is fairly accurate for the major part of the range of operational times encountered in practice.

Flat connections, geometric invariants and the symplectic nature of the fundamental group of surfaces

In this paper we associate a new geometric invariant to the space of fiat connections on a G (= SU(2))-bundle on a compact Riemann surface M and relate it tcr the symplectic structure on the space Hom(pi(1)(M), G)/G consisting of representations of the fundamental group pi(1)(M) Of M into G module the conjugate action of G on representations.

On some geometric invariants associated to the space of flat connections on an open space

A geometric invariant is associated to the parabolic moduli space on a marked surface and is related to the symplectic structure of the moduli space.

Flat connections, geometric invariants and energy of harmonic functions on compact Riemann surfaces

A geometric invariant is associated to the space of fiat connections on a G-bundle over a compact Riemann surface and is related to the energy of harmonic functions.

Unitary invariants for Hilbert modules of finite rank

We associate a sheaf model to a class of Hilbert modules satisfying a natural finiteness condition. It is obtained as the dual to a linear system of Hermitian vector spaces (in the sense of Grothendieck). A refined notion of curvature is derived from this construction leading to a new unitary invariant for the Hilbert module. A division problem with bounds, originating in Douady's privilege, is related to this framework. A series of concrete computations illustrate the abstract concepts of the paper.

Floquet generation of Majorana end modes and topological invariants

We show how Majorana end modes can be generated in a one-dimensional system by varying some of the parameters in the Hamiltonian periodically in time. The specific model we consider is a chain containing spinless electrons with a nearest-neighbor hopping amplitude, a p-wave superconducting term, and a chemical potential; this is equivalent to a spin-1/2 chain with anisotropic XY couplings between nearest neighbors and a magnetic field applied in the (z) over cap direction. We show that varying the chemical potential (or magnetic field) periodically in time can produce Majorana modes at the ends of a long chain. We discuss two kinds of periodic driving, periodic delta-function kicks, and a simple harmonic variation with time. We discuss some distinctive features of the end modes such as the inverse participation ratio of their wave functions and their Floquet eigenvalues which are always equal to +/- 1 for time-reversal-symmetric systems. For the case of periodic delta-function kicks, we use the effective Hamiltonian of a system with periodic boundary conditions to define two topological invariants. The first invariant is a well-known winding number, while the second invariant has not appeared in the literature before. The second invariant is more powerful in that it always correctly predicts the numbers of end modes with Floquet eigenvalues equal to + 1 and -1, while the first invariant does not. We find that the number of end modes can become very large as the driving frequency decreases. We show that periodic delta-function kicks in the hopping and superconducting terms can also produce end modes. Finally, we study the effect of electron-phonon interactions (which are relevant at finite temperatures) and a random noise in the chemical potential on the Majorana modes.

Relative mirror symmetry and ramifications of a formula for Gromov-Witten invariants

For a toric Del Pezzo surface S, a new instance of mirror symmetry, said relative, is introduced and developed. On the A-model, this relative mirror symmetry conjecture concerns genus 0 relative Gromov-Witten of maximal tangency of S. These correspond, on the B-model, to relative periods of the mirror to S. Furthermore, for S not necessarily toric, two conjectures for BPS state counts are related. It is proven that the integrality of BPS state counts of the total space of the canonical bundle on S implies the integrality for the relative BPS state counts of S. Finally, a prediction of homological mirror symmetry for the open complement is explored. The B-model prediction is calculated in all cases and matches the known A-model computation for the projective plane.
