چکیده

We show that strongly contracting geodesics in Outer space project to parameterized quasigeodesics in the free factor complex. This result provides a converse to a theorem of Bestvina– Feighn, and is used to give conditions for when a subgroup of Out(F) has a quasi-isometric orbit map into the free factor complex. It also allows one to construct many new examples of strongly contracting geodesics in Outer space.

Orbit Spaces Arising from Isometric Actions on Hyperbolic Spaces

Let be a differentiable action of a Lie group on a differentiable manifold and consider the orbit space with the quotient topology.  Dimension of is called the cohomogeneity of the action of  on . If is a differentiable manifold  of  cohomogeneity one under the action of  a compact and connected Lie group, then the orbit space is homeomorphic to one of the spaces , , or . In this paper we suppo...

On the Possibility of Habitable Moons in the System of HD 23079: Results from Orbital Stability Studies

The aim of our study is to investigate the possibility of habitable moons orbiting the giant planet HD 23079b, a Jupitermass planet, which follows a low-eccentricity orbit in the outer region of HD 23079’s habitable zone. We show that HD 23079b is able to host habitable moons in prograde and retrograde orbits, as expected, noting that the outer stability limit for retrograde orbits is increased...

A Canonical Partition of the Periodic Orbits of Chaotic Maps

We show that the periodic orbits of an area-contracting horseshoe map can be partitioned into subsets of orbits of minimum period k, 2k, 4k, 8k, ..., for some positive integer k. This partition is natural in the following sense: for any parametrized area-contracting map which forms a horseshoe, the orbits in one subset of the partition are contained in a single component of orbits in the full p...

Periodic orbits in warped disks

It is often assumed that a warped galaxy can be modeled by a set of rings. This paper verifies numerically the validity of this assumption by the study of periodic orbits populating a heavy self-gravitating warped disk. The phase space structure of a warped model reveals that the circular periodic orbits of a flat disk are transformed in quasi annular periodic orbits which conserve their stabil...

Expression and Purification of Recombinant Outer Surface Protein D of Borrelia burgdorferi

To carry out the immunological experiments on the serum of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients, based on a correlation between Borrelia burgdorferi infection and contracting MS autoimmune disease the outer surface protein D (OspD) of the bacterium was expressed and purified. A clone containing the OspD gene in pET11a expression vector under the control of T7 promoter was transformed to the bacteri...
