A construction of hyperbolic Coxeter groups
[OWP-2010-04] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)We give a simple construction of Gromov hyperbolic Coxeter groups of arbitrarily large virtual cohomological dimension. Our construction provides new examples of such groups. Using this one can construct e.g. new groups ... -
Fibonacci-like unimodal inverse limit spaces
[OWP-2010-03] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-9)We study the structure of inverse limit space of so-called Fibonacci-like tent maps. The combinatorial constraints implied by the Fibonacci-like assumption allows us to introduce certain chains that enable a more detailed ... -
The ingram conjecture
[OWP-2010-02] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-8)We prove the Ingram Conjecture, i.e., we show that the inverse limit spaces of every two tent maps with different slopes in the interval [1,2] are non-homeomorphic. Based on the structure obtained from the proof, we also ... -
Locally conformally Kähler manifolds admitting a holomorphic conformal flow
[OWP-2010-13] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-15)A manifold $M$ is locally conformally Kähler (LCK) if it admits a Kähler covering $\tilde{M}$ with monodromy acting by holomorphic homotheties. Let $M$ be an LCK manifold admitting a holomorphic conformal flow of ... -
Non-integrated defect relation for meromorphic maps of complete Kähler manifolds into a projective variety intersecting hypersurfaces
[OWP-2010-19] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)In 1985, Fujimoto established a non-integrated defect relation for meromorphic maps of complete Kähler manifolds into the complex projective space intersecting hyperplanes in general position. In this paper, we generalize ... -
On Generalizations of Kac-Moody Groups
[OWP-2010-06] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-10)In [7] we define a Curtis-Tits group as a certain generalization of a Kac-Moody group. We distinguish between orientable and non-orientable Curtis-Tits groups and identify all orientable Curtis-Tits groups as Kac-Moody ... -
On Selfinjective Artin Algebras Having Generalized Standard Quasitubes
[OWP-2010-18] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-18)We give a complete description of the Morita equivalence classes of all connected selfinjective artin algebras for which the Auslander-Reiten quiver admits a family of quasitubes having common composition factors, closed ... -
On the complement of the dense orbit for a quiver of type A
[OWP-2010-11] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)Let $\mathbb{A}_t$ be the directed quiver of type $A$ with $t$ vertices. For each dimension vector $d$ there is a dense orbit in the corresponding representation space. The principal aim of this note is to use just rank ... -
On the Complement of the Richardson Orbit
[OWP-2010-09] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-13)We consider parabolic subgroups of a general algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ whose Levi part has exactly $t$ factors. By a classical theorem of Richardson, the nilradical of a parabolic subgroup $P$ ... -
Plethysms, replicated Schur functions and series, with applications to vertex operators
[OWP-2010-12] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-14)Specializations of Schur functions are exploited to define and evaluate the Schur functions $s_\lambda [\alpha X]$ and plethysms $s_\lambda [\alpha s_\nu(X))]$ for any $\alpha$-integer, real or complex. Plethysms are then ... -
Representation Theory of Non-Commutative Association Schemes of Order
[OWP-2010-07] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-11)In this note, we investigate association schemes of order 6. We prove that non-normal closed subsets of such schemes have order 2 and that normal closed subsets of non-commutative schemes have order 2 or 3. After that, ... -
Semi-Invertible Extensions of C*-Algebras
[OWP-2010-17] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-17)We prolonge the list of $C^*$-algebras for which all extensions by any stable separable $C^*$-algebra are semi-invertible. In particular, we handle certain amalgamations, both of $C^*$-algebras and of groups. Concerning ... -
A series of algebras generalizing the Octonions and Hurwitz-Radon Identity
[OWP-2010-10] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)We study non-associative twisted group algebras over $(\mathbb{Z}_2)^n$ with cubic twisting functions. We construct a series of algebras that extend the classical algebra of octonions in the same way as the Clifford algebras ... -
Shape Theory and Extensions of C*-Algebras
[OWP-2010-16] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-16)Let A, A' be separable $C^*$-algebras, $B$ a stable $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra. Our main result is the construction of the pairing $[[A', A]] \times Ext^{-1/2}(A,B) \to Ext^{-1/2}(A',B)$, where $[[A', A]]$ denotes the ... -
Spectral Sequences in Combinatorial Geometry: Cheeses, Inscribed Sets, and Borsuk-Ulam Type Theorems
[OWP-2010-08] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-12)Algebraic topological methods are especially suited to determining the nonexistence of continuous mappings satisfying certain properties. In combinatorial problems it is sometimes possible to define a mapping from a space ... -
Stochastic mean payoff game: smoothed analysis and approximation schemes
[OWP-2010-22] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010-03-20)We consider two-person zero-sum stochastic mean payoff games with perfect information modeled by a digraph with black, white, and random vertices. These BWR-games games are polynomially equivalent with the classical Gillette ... -
Supertropical linear algebra
[OWP-2010-14] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)The objective of this paper is to lay out the algebraic theory of supertropical vector spaces and linear algebra, utilizing the key antisymmetric relation of "ghost surpasses." Special attention is paid to the various ... -
Supertropical Matrix Algebra III : Powers of Matrices and Generalized Eigenspaces
[OWP-2010-20] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)We investigate powers of supertropical matrices, with special attention to the role of the coefficients of the supertropical characteristic polynomial (especially the supertropical trace) in controlling the rank of a power ... -
Supertropical semirings and supervaluations
[OWP-2010-05] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)We interpret a valuation $\upsilon$ on a ring $R$ as a map $\upsilon:R \rightarrow M$ into a so called bipotent semiring $M$ (the usual max-plus setting), and then define a supervaluation $\varphi$ as a suitable map into ... -
There is a unique real tight contact 3-ball
[OWP-2010-01] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2010)We prove that there is a unique real tight contact structure on the 3-ball with convex boundary up to isotopy through real tight contact structures. We also give a partial classification of the real tight solid tori with ...
