A Construction of Surface Bundles over Surfaces with Non-zero Signature
Let Σg (respectively Σ/J be a closed oriented surface of genus g (respectively h), where g (respectively h) is a non-negative integer. Let Diff+Σh be the group of all orientation-preserving difϊeomorphisms of Σ/j with C°°-topology. A Σ^bundle over Σg (also called a surface bundle over a surface) is fiber bundle ξ = (£", Σg,p, Σ/^Diff+Σfr) over Σ^ with total space E, fiber Σ&, projection p : E —...
متن کاملSignatures of Foliated Surface Bundles and the Symplectomorphism Groups of Surfaces
For any closed oriented surface Σg of genus g ≥ 3, we prove the existence of foliated Σg-bundles over surfaces such that the signatures of the total spaces are non-zero. We can arrange that the total holonomy of the horizontal foliations preserve a prescribed symplectic form ω on the fiber. We relate the cohomology class represented by the transverse symplectic form to a crossed homomorphism F̃l...
متن کاملTetrahedral Mesh Construction for Unit Tangent Bundle over Genus-Zero Surfaces
Unit tangent bundle of a surface carries various information of tangent vector fields on that surface. For 2-spheres (i.e. genus-zero closed surfaces), the unit tangent bundle is a closed 3-manifold that has non-trivial topology and cannot be embedded in R. Therefore it cannot be constructed by existing mesh generation algorithms directly. This work aims at the first discrete construction of un...
متن کاملComparing Lexical Bundles in Hard Science Lectures; A Case of Native and Non-Native University Lecturers
Researchers stated that learning and applying certain set of lexical bundles of native lecturers by non-native lecturers would help students improve their proficiency through incidental vocabulary input. The present study shed light on the lexical bundles in hard science lectures used by Native and Non-native lecturers in international universities with the main purpose of analyzing the structu...
متن کاملFundamental Classes Not Representable by Products
We prove that rationally essential manifolds with suitably large fundamental groups do not admit any maps of non-zero degree from products of closed manifolds of positive dimension. Particular examples include all manifolds of non-positive sectional curvature of rank one and all irreducible locally symmetric spaces of non-compact type. For closed manifolds from certain classes, say non-positive...
