چکیده

Abstract. Let Fn be a free group of rank n ≥ 2. Two elements g, h in Fn are said to be translation equivalent in Fn if the cyclic length of φ(g) equals the cyclic length of φ(h) for every automorphism φ of Fn. Let F (a, b) be the free group generated by {a, b} and let w(a, b) be an arbitrary word in F (a, b). We prove that w(g, h) and w(h, g) are translation equivalent in Fn whenever g, h ∈ Fn are translation equivalent in Fn, which hereby gives an affirmative solution to problem F38b in the online version (http://www.grouptheory.info) of [1].

Let F be a free group of rank N ≥ 2, let µ be a geodesic current on F and let T be an R-tree with a very small isometric action of F. We prove that the geometric intersection number T, µ is equal to zero if and only if the support of µ is contained in the dual algebraic lamination L 2 (T) of T. Applying this result, we obtain a generalization of a theorem of Francaviglia regarding length spectr...

Translation Equivalence in Free Groups

Motivated by the work of Leininger on hyperbolic equivalence of homotopy classes of closed curves on surfaces, we investigate a similar phenomenon for free groups. Namely, we study the situation when two elements g, h in a free group F have the property that for every free isometric action of F on an R-tree X the translation lengths of g and h on X are equal.

Determination of the Equilibrium Parameters of Gaseous Detonations Using a Genetic Algorithm

The present work is concerned with the development of a new algorithm for determination of the equilibrium composition of gaseous detonations. The elements balance equations, and the second law of thermodynamics (i.e., the minimization of the Gibbs free energy of products), are used to determine the equilibrium composition of the detonation products. To minimize the Gibbs free energy with tradi...

Cultural Elements in the Translation of Children's Literature: Persian translation of Roald Dahl’s Matilda in focus

Translation can have long-term effects on all languages and cultures. It is not a mere linguistic act, but mostly a cultural act, since language is by nature one of the major carriers of cultural elements. Thus, the translator’s job is not just transferring the meaning of words and sentences from the source text to the target text. Culture-specific items often cause translation problems. Identi...
