A Gallery of de Rham Curves
نویسنده
چکیده
The de Rham curves are a set of fairly generic fractal curves exhibiting dyadic symmetry. Described by Georges de Rham in 1957[3], this set includes a number of the famous classical fractals, including the Koch snowflake, the Peano spacefilling curve, the Cesàro-Faber curves, the Takagi-Landsberg[4] or blancmange curve, and the Lévy C-curve. This paper gives a brief review of the construction of these curves, demonstrates that the complete collection of linear affine deRham curves is a five-dimensional space, and then presents a collection of four dozen images exploring this space. These curves are interesting because they exhibit dyadic symmetry, with the dyadic symmetry monoid being an interesting subset of the group GL(2,Z). This is a companion article to several others[5][6] exploring the nature of this monoid in greater detail.

On Quantum De Rham Cohomology Theory
We define the quantum exterior product ∧h and quantum exterior differential dh on Poisson manifolds. The quantum de Rham cohomology, which is a deformation quantization of the de Rham cohomology, is defined as the cohomology of dh. We also define the quantum Dolbeault cohomology. A version of quantum integral on symplectic manifolds is considered and the corresponding quantum Stokes theorem is ...
متن کاملON THE DE RHAM AND p-ADIC REALIZATIONS OF THE ELLIPTIC POLYLOGARITHM FOR CM ELLIPTIC CURVES
In this paper, we give an explicit description of the de Rham and p-adic polylogarithms for elliptic curves using the Kronecker theta function. We prove in particular that when the elliptic curve has complex multiplication and good reduction at p, then the specializations to torsion points of the p-adic elliptic polylogarithm are related to p-adic Eisenstein-Kronecker numbers, proving a p-adic ...
متن کاملRealizations of the Elliptic Polylogarithm for CM elliptic curves
In these notes, we give an overview of our paper [BKT] which gives an explicit description of the de Rham and p-adic realizations of the elliptic polylogarithm, for a general elliptic curve defined over a subfield of C in the de Rham case and for a CM elliptic curve defined over its field of complex multiplication and with good reduction at the primes above p ≥ 5 in the p-adic case. As explaine...
متن کاملDe Rham Theorem for Extended L 2 -cohomology
We prove an analogue of the de Rham theorem for the extended L 2-cohomology introduced by M.Farber [Fa]. This is done by establishing that the de Rham complex over a compact closed manifold with coefficients in a flat Hilbert bundle E of A-modules over a finite von Neumann algebra A is chain-homotopy equivalent in the sense of [GS] (i.e. with bounded morphisms and homotopy operators) to a combi...

We define ε-factors in the de Rham setting and calculate the determinant of the Gauß-Manin connection for a family of (affine) curves and a vector bundle equipped with a flat connection. “Ordentliche Leute pflegten ihren Schatten mit sich zu nehmen, wenn sie in die Sonne gingen.” A. v.
