A lantern lemma
We show that in the mapping class group of a surface any relation between Dehn twists of the form T j xT k y = M (M a multitwist) is the lantern relation, and any relation of the form (TxTy) k = M (where Tx commutes with M ) is the 2-chain relation. AMS Classification 57M07; 20F38, 57N05
متن کاملA Magic Lantern Data Projector
The Magic Lantern Data Projector allows a performer-participant to build sculptural glass forms that are projected, then algorithmically processed. The device re-envisions magic lantern slides as transparent, multifaceted three-dimensional glass boxes. The projected image is a palimpsest of coloured transparent glass forms (Figure 1). Servomotors position the boxes in front of a camera lens, wh...
متن کاملQuantum galvanometer by interfacing a vibrating nanowire and cold atoms.
We evaluate the coupling of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of ultracold, paramagnetic atoms to the magnetic field of the current in a mechanically vibrating carbon nanotube within the frame of a full quantum theory. We find that the interaction is strong enough to sense quantum features of the nanowire current noise spectrum by means of hyperfine-state-selective atom counting. Such a nondestr...
متن کاملApplications of the Lantern Identity
The purpose of this note is to unify the role of the lantern identity in the proof of several finiteness theorems. In particular, we show that for every nonnegative integer m, the vector space (over the rationals) of type m (resp. T -type m) invariants of integral homology 3-spheres are finite dimensional. These results have already been obtained by [Oh] and [GL2] respectively; our derivation h...
متن کاملNew Vertical Geodesy
Vertical geodesy is undergoing a revolution because of two factors. First, new precise three-dimensional position measurement techniques used over very long distances and based on extraterrestrial reference systems provide a new class and precision of geometric data previously unavailable for geophysical investigations. Second, physical models in tectonic theory for large earthquakes predict cr...
