Homogeneous structures, . . .

نویسنده

  • Dugald Macpherson
چکیده

I aim to give the flavour of a selection of topics based around Fräıssé’s notion of homogeneous structure. This is an area connecting ideas from model theory, permutation group theory, combinatorics, descriptive set theory, complexity theory, and other subjects. I will touch superficially a number of these subjects, with little in depth. The background assumed will be basic first order logic (languages, structures, interpretations, compactness), but of course, some familiarity with other subjects will help. The notes below contain no original material. Outline of lectures. 1. Homogeneous and ω-categorical structures. Fräıssé amalgamation. Examples and classification results. 2. Model theory of homogeneous and ω-categorical structures. 3. Automorphisms of homogeneous and ω-categorical structures. Polish groups. Recovering a structure from its automorphism group. 4. Structural Ramsey theory and homogeneous structures. 5. Ramsey theory, homogeneous structures, and topological dynamics.

Use of Numerical Simulation to Measure the Effect of Relief Wells for Decreasing Uplift in a Homogeneous Earth Dam

Relief wells are used extensively to relieve excess hydrostatic pressure in pervious foundation strata overlain by impervious top strata, conditions which often exist landward of levees and downstream of dams and hydraulic structures. Placing well outlets in below-surface trenches or collector pipes helps dry up seepage areas downstream of levees and dams. Relief wells are often used in combina...

Effect of Thermal Gradient on Vibration of Non-Homogeneous Square Plate with Exponentially Varying Thickness

Vibrations of plate and plate type structures made up of composite materials have a significant role in various industrial mechanical structures, aerospace industries and other engineering applications. The main aim of the present paper is to study the two dimensional thermal effect on the vibration of non-homogeneous square plate of variable thickness having clamped boundary. It is assumed tha...

A Class of compact operators on homogeneous spaces

Let  $varpi$ be a representation of the homogeneous space $G/H$, where $G$ be a locally compact group and  $H$ be a compact subgroup of $G$. For  an admissible wavelet $zeta$ for $varpi$  and $psi in L^p(G/H), 1leq p <infty$, we determine a class of bounded  compact operators  which are related to continuous wavelet transforms on homogeneous spaces and they are called localization operators.

The Lattice of Definable Equivalence Relations in Homogeneous $n$-Dimensional Permutation Structures

In Homogeneous permutations, Peter Cameron [Electronic Journal of Combinatorics 2002] classified the homogeneous permutations (homogeneous structures with 2 linear orders), and posed the problem of classifying the homogeneous ndimensional permutation structures (homogeneous structures with n linear orders) for all finite n. We prove here that the lattice of ∅-definable equivalence relations in ...

Homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian structures of class T2 on low-dimensional generalized symmetric spaces

We give a contribution about the study of homogeneous pseudoRiemannian structures on a type of homogeneous spaces, namely, the pseudo-Riemannian generalized symmetric spaces of low dimensions. It is well known that generalized symmetric Riemannian spaces admit homogeneous structures of the class T2 ⊕ T3. The same property holds in the pseudo-Riemannian context. The aim of the present paper is t...
