The Stable Free Rank of Symmetry of Products of Spheres
نویسنده
چکیده
A well known conjecture in the theory of transformation groups states that if p is a prime and (Z/p) acts freely on a product of k spheres, then r ≤ k. We prove this assertion if p is large compared to the dimension of the product of spheres. The argument builds on tame homotopy theory for non-simply connected spaces.

A new family in the stable homotopy groups of spheres
Let $p$ be a prime number greater than three. In this paper, we prove the existence of a new family of homotopy elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres $pi_{ast}(S)$ which is represented by $h_nh_mtilde{beta}_{s+2}in {rm Ext}_A^{s+4, q[p^n+p^m+(s+2)p+(s+1)]+s}(mathbb{Z}_p,mathbb{Z}_p)$ up to nonzero scalar in the Adams spectral sequence, where $ngeq m+2>5$, $0leq sExt}_A^{s+2,q[(s+2)p...
متن کاملExact Radial Free Vibration Frequencies of Power-Law Graded Spheres
This study concentrates on the free pure radial vibrations of hollow spheres made of hypothetically functionally simple power rule graded materials having identical inhomogeneity indexes for both Young’s modulus and the density in an analytical manner. After offering the exact elements of the free vibration coefficient matrices for free-free, free-fixed, and fixed-fixed restraints, a parametric...
متن کاملA new notion of rank for finite supersolvable groups and free linear actions on products of spheres
For a finite supersolvable group G, we define the saw rank of G to be the minimum number of sections Gk − Gk−1 of a cyclic normal series G∗ such that Gk − Gk−1 owns an element of prime order. The axe rank of G, studied by Ray [10], is the minimum number of spheres in a product of spheres admitting a free linear action of G. Extending a question of Ray, we conjecture that the two ranks are equal...
متن کاملDetection of a nontrivial element in the stable homotopy groups of spheres
Let $p$ be a prime with $pgeq 7$ and $q=2(p-1)$. In this paper we prove the existence of a nontrivial product of filtration $s+4$ in the stable homotopy groups of spheres. This nontrivial product is shown to be represented up to a nonzero scalar by the product element $widetilde{gamma}_{s}b_{n-1}g_{0}in {Ext}_{mathcal{A}}^{s+4,(p^n+sp^2+sp+s)q+s-3}(mathbb{Z}/p,mathbb{Z}/p)$ in ...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Free Surface Flows and Comparison of Symmetry and Real Boundary Conditions at the Free Surface
For implementation
 of the free surface boundary condition, a new subroutine has been introduced to an existing steady 3-D body fitted code. This code was previously written for steady flow simulation in closed ducts. The algorithm used in this subroutine reduces the instability problem according to the free surface wave generation. For code validation, it was applied to two different open c...
