AbstractIn this paper we prove that in order to define the homology of [3], the hypothesis that there exists a vector field in the kernel of the contact form which defines a dual form with the same orientation is not essential. The technique is quantitative: as we introduce a large amount of rotation near the zeroes of the vector field in the kernel, we track down the modification of the variational problem and provide bounds on a key quantity (denoted by τ).

Independent And Identically Distributed

Consider a circle with perimeter N > 1 on which k < N segments of length 1 are sampled in an independent and identically distributed manner. In this paper we study the probability π (k,N) that these k segments do not overlap; the density φ(·) of the position of the disks on the circle is arbitrary (that is, it is not necessarily assumed uniform). Two scaling regimes are considered. In the first we set k≡ a√N, and it turns out that the probability of interest converges (N→ ∞) to an explicitly given positive constant that reflects the impact of the density φ(·). In the other regime k scales as aN, and the nonoverlap probability decays essentially exponentially; we give the associated decay rate as the solution to a variational problem. Several additional ramifications are presented.
