Double Bubbles in the 3 - Torus
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a conjecture, based on computational results, on the area minimizing way to enclose and separate two arbitrary volumes in the flat cubic three-torus T 3. For comparable small volumes, we prove that an area minimizing double bubble in T 3 is the standard double bubble from R 3 .

Domain Walls and Double Bubbles
We study configurations of intersecting domain walls in a Wess-Zumino model with three vacua. We introduce a volume-preserving flow and show that its static solutions are configurations of intersecting domain walls that form double bubbles, that is, minimal area surfaces which enclose and separate two prescribed volumes. To illustrate this field theory approach to double bubbles, we use domain ...
متن کاملHeat transfer enhancement due to air bubble injection into a horizontal double pipe heat exchanger
If an air flow is injected into a liquid fluid, many ambulant air bubbles are formed inside the fluid. Air bubbles move inside the liquid fluid because of the buoyancy force, and the mobility of these air bubbles makes sizable commixture and turbulence inside the fluid. This mechanism was employed to enhance the heat transfer rate of a horizontal double pipe heat exchanger in this paper. Howeve...
متن کاملThe Double Bubble Problem on the Flat Two-torus
We characterize the perimeter-minimizing double bubbles on all flat two-tori and, as corollaries, on the flat infinite cylinder and the flat infinite strip with free boundary. Specifically, we show that there are five distinct types of minimizers on flat two-tori, depending on the areas to be enclosed.

the prevalence of Torus palatinus and Torus Mandibularis is widely different in various populations and races.this descriptive study was performed in 1999,to investigate the the prevalence of Torus Mandibularis and Torus palatinus in patients referring to Rafsanjan dental school.584 patients(268 men and 316 women) which were over 18 years old were examined.the information recorded in the questi...
متن کاملDouble bubble minimizes: Interval computations help in solving a long-standing geometric problem
Main result. It is well known that of all surfaces surrounding an area with a given volume V, the sphere has the smallest area. This result explains, e.g., why a soap bubble tends to become a sphere. More than a hundred years ago, the Belgian physicist J. Plateaux asked a similar question: what is the least area surface enclosing two equal volumes? Physical experiments with bubbles seem to indi...
