A General Chain Model of the Free Loop Space and String Topology
نویسنده
چکیده
A chain complex model for the free loop space of a connected compact oriented manifold is presented. Some algebraic operations on such a chain complex are studied, and on its homology, the Gerstenhaber and Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra structures are proven. The gravity algebra on the equivariant homology of the free loop space is also constructed. This gives an algebraic and chain level model of Chas-Sullivan string topology [5].

On a General Chain Model of the Free Loop Space and String Topology
LetM be a smooth oriented manifold. The homology ofM has the structure of a Frobenius algebra. This paper shows that on chain level there is a Frobenius-like algebra structure, whose homology gives the Frobenius algebra of M . Moreover, associated to any Frobeniuslike algebra, there is a chain complex whose homology has the structure of a Gerstenhaber algebra and a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. A...
متن کاملAn Algebraic Chain Model of String Topology
A chain complex model for the free loop space of a connected, closed and oriented manifold is presented, and on its homology, the Gerstenhaber and Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra structures are defined and identified with the string topology structures. The gravity algebra on the equivariant homology of the free loop space is also modeled. The construction includes the non-simply connected case, and...
متن کاملDefinition of General Operator Space and The s-gap Metric for Measuring Robust Stability of Control Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics
In the recent decades, metrics have been introduced as mathematical tools to determine the robust stability of the closed loop control systems. However, the metrics drawback is their limited applications in the closed loop control systems with nonlinear dynamics. As a solution in the literature, applying the metric theories to the linearized models is suggested. In this paper, we show that usin...
متن کاملA new virtual leader-following consensus protocol to internal and string stability analysis of longitudinal platoon of vehicles with generic network topology under communication and parasitic delays
In this paper, a new virtual leader following consensus protocol is introduced to perform the internal and string stability analysis of longitudinal platoon of vehicles under generic network topology. In all previous studies on multi-agent systems with generic network topology, the control parameters are strictly dependent on eigenvalues of network matrices (adjacency or Laplacian). Since some ...
متن کاملThird-order Decentralized Safe Consensus Protocol for Inter-connected Heterogeneous Vehicular Platoons
In this paper, the stability analysis and control design of heterogeneous traffic flow is considered. It is assumed that the traffic flow consists of infinite number of cooperative non-identical vehicular platoons. Two different networks are investigated in stability analysis of heterogeneous traffic flow: 1) inter-platoon network which deals with the communication topology of lead vehicles and...
