چکیده

We investigate left-invariant Hitchin and hypo flows on 5-, 6and 7-dimensional Lie groups. They provide Riemannian cohomogeneity-one manifolds of one dimension higher with holonomy contained in SU(3), G2 and Spin(7), respectively, which are in general geodesically incomplete. Generalizing results of Conti, we prove that for large classes of solvable Lie groups G these manifolds cannot be completed: a complete Riemannian manifold with parallel SU(3)-, G2or Spin(7)-structure which is of cohomogeneity one with respect to G is flat, and has no singular orbits. We furthermore classify, on the non-compact Lie group SL(2,C), all half-flat SU(3)-structures which are bi-invariant with respect to the maximal compact subgroup SU(2) and solve the Hitchin flow for these initial values. It turns out that often the flow collapses to a smooth manifold in one direction. In this way we recover an incomplete cohomogeneity-one Riemannian metric with holonomy equal to G2 on the twisted product SL(2,C)×SU(2) C 2 described by Bryant and Salamon.

Simple Root Flows for Hitchin Representations

Anosov representations ([19, 15]) from a hyperbolic group to a semi-simple Lie group are characterized by their dynamical nature. In the context of projective Anosov representations, we [7] previously associated a metric Anosov flow to such a representation and showed that the (thermo)dynamical properties of this flow yield in turn new structures on the deformation space of these representation...

The effect of boundary conditions on the accuracy and stability of the numerical solution of fluid flows by Lattice-Boltzmann method

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of boundary conditions on the accuracy and stability of the numerical solution of fluid flows in the context of single relaxation time Lattice Boltzmann method (SRT-LBM). The fluid flows are simulated using regularized, no-slip, Zou-He and bounce back boundary conditions for straight surfaces in a lid driven cavity and the two-dimensional flow ...

Study of Parameters Affecting Separation Bubble Size in High Speed Flows using k-ω Turbulence Model

Shock waves generated at different parts of vehicle interact with the boundary layer over the surface at high Mach flows. The adverse pressure gradient across strong shock wave causes the flow to separate and peak loads are generated at separation and reattachment points. The size of separation bubble in the shock boundary layer interaction flows depends on various parameters. Reynolds-averaged...

Effects of coupling on turbulent gas-particle boundary layer flows at borderline volume fractions using kinetic theory

This study is concerned with the prediction of particles’ velocity in a dilute turbulent gas-solidboundary layer flow using a fully Eulerian two-fluid model. The closures required for equationsdescribing the particulate phase are derived from the kinetic theory of granular flows. Gas phaseturbulence is modeled by one-equation model and solid phase turbulence by MLH theory. Resultsof one-way and...
