(1.4) h(x, z) := detΦxz(x, z). If C is locally the graph of a canonical transformation, i.e., h(x, z) 6= 0, then ‖Tλ‖ = O(λ−d/2) (see Hörmander [15], [16]). If the projections have singularities then there is less decay in λ and in various specific cases the decay has been determined. In dimension d = 1 Phong and Stein [21] obtained a complete description of the L mapping properties, for the ca...

Continuing our first paper in this series, we study multiple limits in infinite-dimensional multiple categories. The general setting is chiral multiple categories a weak, partially lax form with directed interchanges. After defining multiple limits we prove that all of them can be constructed from (multiple) products, equalisers and tabulators all of them assumed to be respected by faces and de...

Distance measurements to Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at cosmological distances indicate that the Universe is accelerating and that a large fraction of the critical energy density exists in a component with negative pressure. Various hypotheses on the nature of this “dark energy” can be tested via their prediction for the equation of state of this component. If the dark energy is due to a scalar...

Three propositions about Jordan matrices are proved and applied to algebraically classify the Ricci tensor in n-dimensional Kaluza-Klein-type spacetimes. We show that the possible Segre types are [1, 1 . . . 1], [21 . . . 1], [31 . . . 1], [zz̄1 . . . 1] and degeneracies thereof. A set of canonical forms for the Segre types is obtained in terms of semi-null bases of vectors.

Extended cubical sets (with connections and interchanges) are presheaves on a ground category, the extended cubical site K, corresponding to the (augmented) simplicial site, the category of finite ordinals. We prove here that K has characterisations similar to the classical ones for the simplicial analogue, by generators and relations, or by the existence of a universal symmetric cubical monoid...

There are three parameter degeneracies inherent in the three–neutrino analysis of long–baseline neutrino experiments. We develop a systematic method for determining whether or not a set of measurements in neutrino oscillation appearance experiments with approximately monoenergetic beams can completely resolve these ambiguities. We then use this method to identify experimental scenarios in which...

A recently discovered relation between 4D and 5D black holes is used to derive exact (weighted) BPS black hole degeneracies for 4D N = 8 string theory from the exactly known 5D degeneracies. A direct 4D microscopic derivation in terms of weighted 4D D-brane bound state degeneracies is sketched and found to agree.

We present a microscopic index formula for the degeneracy of dyons in four-dimensional N = 4 string theory. This counting formula is manifestly symmetric under the duality group, and its asymptotic growth reproduces the macroscopic Bekenstein-Hawking en-tropy. We give a derivation of this result in terms of the type II ve-brane compactiied on K3, by assuming that its uctuations are described by...

A number of recent papers have demonstrated that camera "selfcalibration" can be accomplished purely from image measurements, without requiring special calibration objects or known camera motion. We describe a method, based on self-calibration, for obtaining (scaled) Euclidean structure from multiple uncalibrated perspective images using only point matches between views. The method is in two st...

Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect from a cosmological distribution of clusters carry information on the underlying cosmology as well as the cluster gas physics. In order to study either cosmology or clusters one needs to break the degeneracies between the two. We present a toy model showing how complementary informations from SZ power spectrum and the SZ flux counts, both obtained from upcoming SZ ...
