3-dimensional affine hypersurfaces admitting a pointwise SO(2)-or Z 3-symmetry Abstract In (equi-)affine differential geometry, the most important algebraic invariants are the affine (Blaschke) metric h, the affine shape operator S and the difference tensor K. A hypersurface is said to admit a point-wise symmetry if at every point there exists a linear transformation preserving the affine metric, the affine shape operator and the difference tensor K. In this paper, we consider the 3-dimensional positive definite hypersurfaces for which at each point the group of symmetries is isomorphic to either Z 3 or SO(2). We classify such hypersurfaces and show how they can be constructed starting from 2-dimensional positive definite affine spheres.

Indefinite affine hyperspheres admitting a pointwise symmetry
An affine hypersurface M is said to admit a pointwise symmetry, if there exists a subgroup G of Aut(T p M) for all p ∈ M , which preserves (pointwise) the affine metric h, the difference tensor K and the affine shape operator S. Here, we consider 3-dimensional indefinite affine hyperspheres, i. e. S = HId (and thus S is trivially preserved). First we solve an algebraic problem. We determine the...

In this paper we compute the integral cohomology groups for all examples of Calabi-Yau 3-folds obtained from hypersurfaces in 4-dimensional Gorenstein toric Fano varieties. Among 473 800 776 families of Calabi-Yau 3-folds X corresponding to 4-dimensional reflexive polytopes there exist exactly 32 families having non-trivial torsion in H∗(X, Z). We came to an interesting observation that the tor...

In this article, we propose a new representation of Lax type for the sixth Painlevé equation. This representation, formulated in the framework of the loop algebra so(8)[z, z−1] of type D (1) 4 , provides a natural explanation of the affine Weyl group symmetry of PVI. After recalling a standard derivation of PVI, we describe in Section 2 fundamental Bäcklund transformations for PVI. In Section 3...
