On three‐dimensional rotational averages

Abstract: In theories which describe the response of freely rotating molecules to externally imposed stimuli it is frequently necessary to average rotationally a product of direction cosines relating space‐fixed and molecular coordinate frames. In this paper a systematic method for deriving the required tensor averages is presented, and results up to the seventh rank are explicitly shown. Where appropriate both reducible and irreducible expressions are given and their equivalence is demonstrated. Finally, some useful identities relating rotational averages of different ranks are noted.

Aspects of topoi

Abstract: After a review of the work of Lawvere and Tierney, it is shown that every topos may be exactly embedded in a product of topoi each with 1 as a generator, and near-exactly embedded in a power of the category of sets. Several metatheorems are then derived. Natural numbers objects are shown to be characterized by exactness properties, which yield the fact that some topoi can not be exactly embedded in powers of the category of sets, indeed that the “arithmetic” arising from a topos dominates the exactness theory. Finally, several, necessarily non-elementary, conditions are shown to imply exact embedding in powers of the category of sets.

Geometry of Warped Product CR-Submanifolds in Kaehler Manifolds

Abstract: In this paper we study warped product CR-submanifolds in Kaehler manifolds and introduce the notion of CR-warped products. We prove several fundamental properties of CR-warped products in Kaehler manifolds and establish a general inequality for an arbitrary CR-warped product in an arbitrary Kaehler manifold. We then investigate CR-warped products in a general Kaehler manifold which satisfy the equality case of the inequality. Finally we classify CR-warped products in complex Euclidean space which satisfy the equality.

Decomposition through formalization in a product space

Abstract: When an optimization problem is posed in a product space it is classical to decompose this problem. The goal of this paper is to show how such an approach can be used when the problem to be solved is not naturally posed in a product space. By associating systematically to this problem an equivalent one posed in ann-fold cartesian product space, we obtain by decomposition of the latter both a splitting of operators and a desintegration of constraints for the former. Applications to three rather classical mathematical programming problems are given.
