چکیده

Bifurcation problems in which periodic boundary conditions (PBC) or Neumann boundary conditions (NBC) are imposed often involve partial differential equations that have Eu-clidean symmetry. In this case posing the bifurcation problem with either PBC or NBC on a finite domain can lead to a symmetric bifurcation problem for which the manifest symmetries of the domain do not completely characterize the constraints due to symmetry on the bifurcation equations. Additional constraints due to the Euclidean symmetry of the equations can have a crucial influence on the structure of the bifurcation equations. An example is the bifurcation of standing waves on the surface of fluid layer. The Euclidean symmetry of an infinite fluid layer constrains the bifurcation of surface waves in a finite container with square cross section because the waves satisfying PBC or NBC can be shown to lie in certain finite-dimensional fixed point subspaces of the infinite-dimensional problem. These constraints are studied by analyzing the finite-dimensional vector fields obtained on these subspaces by restricting the bifurcation equations for the infinite layer. Particular emphasis is given to determining which bifurcations might reveal observable effects of the rotational symmetry of the infinite layer. It turns out that a necessary condition for this possibility to arise is that the subspace for PBC must carry a reducible representation of the normalizer subgroup acting on the subspace. This condition can be met in different ways in both codimension-one and codimension-two bifurcations.

The action of Weyl scale invariant p=3 brane (domain wall) which breaks the target super Weyl scale symmetry in the N=1, 5D superspace down to the lower dimensional Weyl symmetry W (1, 3) is derived by the approach of coset method. Its dual form action for the Weyl scale invariant tensor gauge field theory is also constructed.

We compute the determinant of the Gram matrix of the Shapovalov form on weight spaces of the basic representation of an affine Kac-Moody algebra of ADE type (possibly twisted). As a consequence, we obtain explicit formulae for the determinants of the Cartan matrices of p-blocks of the symmetric group and its double cover, and of the associated Hecke algebras at roots of unity.

We will study open and hidden charm scalar meson resonances within two different models. The first one is a direct application of a chiral Lagrangian already used to study flavor symmetry breaking in Skyrme models. In another approach to the problem a SU(4) symmetric Lagrangian is built and the symmetry is broken down to SU(3) by identifying currents where heavy mesons are exchanged and suppres...

The finiteness requirement for Euclidean Einstein gravity is shown to be so stringent that only the flat metric is allowed. We examine counterterms in 4D and 6D Ricci-flat manifolds from general invari-ance arguments.
