AbstractWe exhibit a pseudoeffective $\mathbb{R}$-divisor ${D}_{\lambda }$ on the blow-up of ${\mathbb{P}}^{3}$ at nine very general points which lies in the closed movable cone and has negative intersections with a set of curves whose union is Zariski dense. It follows that the diminished base locus ${\boldsymbol{B}}_{-}({D}_{\lambda })={\bigcup }_{A\,\text{ample}}\boldsymbol{B}({D}_{\lambda }+A)$ is not closed and that ${D}_{\lambda }$ does not admit a Zariski decomposition in even a very weak sense. By a similar method, we construct an $\mathbb{R}$-divisor on the family of blow-ups of ${\mathbb{P}}^{2}$ at ten distinct points, which is nef on a very general fiber but fails to be nef over countably many prime divisors in the base.

We obtain the Γ(L1(Ώ))-limit of the sequencewhere Eε is the family of anisotropic perturbationsof the nonconvex functional of vector-valued functionsThe proof relies on the blow-up argument introduced by Fonseca and Müller.

In this note a simple principle is explained for constructing a transformation group which is a free product of given transformation groups. The principle does not seem to have been formulated explicitly, though it has been used in a more or less vague form in the theory of discontinuous groups (see, for instance, L. R. Ford, Automorphic functions, vol. I, pp. 56–59). It is perhaps of interest that the formulation given here is purely set-theoretic, without any topology, and that it can apply to any free product, whatever the cardinal number of the set of factors. The principle is used to establish the closure under the formation of countable free product of the family of groups which can be represented as discontinuous subgroups of a certain group of rational projective transformations. (The word ‘discontinuous’ is used here in a weak sense, defined later.) Finally, these results are applied to give a new proof of the theorem of Gruenberg that a free product of residually finite groups is itself residually finite (K. W. Gruenberg: Residual properties of groups, Proc. London Math. Soc. (3), 7 (1957), 29–62. See Corollary (ii) of Theorem 4.1, p. 44). The present proof is completely different from Gruenberg's and seems to be of interest for its own sake, though it does not appear to lead to Gruenberg's other results in this connexion. I have to thank Mr W. J. Harvey and Mr C. Maclachlan for checking a first draft of this paper and pointing out a few errors.

<abstract><p>The intention along this work is to provide analytical approaches for a degenerate parabolic equation formulated with a p-Laplacian operator and heterogeneous non-Lipschitz reaction. Firstly, some results are discussed and presented in relation with uniqueness, existence and regularity of solutions. Due to the degenerate diffusivity induced by the p-Laplacian operator (specially when $ \nabla u = 0 $, or close zero), solutions are studied in a weak sense upon definition of an appropriate test function. The p-Laplacian operator is positive for positive solutions. This positivity condition is employed to show the regularity results along propagation. Afterwards, profiles of solutions are explored specially to characterize the propagating front that exhibits the property known as finite propagation speed. Finally, conditions are shown to the loss of compact support and, hence, to the existence of blow up phenomena in finite time.</p></abstract>

AbstractIn earlier work I defined a class of curves, forming a dense open set in the space of maps from S1 to P3, such that the family of projections of a curve in this class is stable under perturbations of C: we call the curves in the class projection-generic. The definition makes sense also in the complex case. The partition of projective space according to the singularities of the corresponding projection of C is a stratification. Its local structure outside C is the same as that of the versal unfoldings of the singularities presented.To study points on C we introduce the blow-up BC of P3 along C, and a family of plane curves, parametrised by z ∈ BC; we saw in the earlier work that this is a flat family.Here we show that near most z ∈ BC, the family gives a family of parametrised germs which versally unfolds the singularities occurring. Otherwise we find that the double point number δ of Γz drops by 1 for z ∉ EC. We establish a theory of versality for unfoldings of A or D singularities such that δ drops by at most 1, and show that in the remaining cases, we have an unfolding which is versal in this sense.This implies normal forms for the stratification of BC; further work allows us to derive local normal forms for strata of the stratification of P3.

Abstract Let Pol k be the set of all functions of k-valued logic representable by a polynomial modulo k, and let Int (Pol k ) be the family of all closed classes (with respect to superposition) in the partial k-valued logic containing Pol k and consisting only of functions extendable to some function from Pol k . Previously the author showed that if k is the product of two different primes, then the family Int (Pol k ) consists of 7 closed classes. In this paper, it is proved that if k has at least 3 different prime divisors, then the family Int (Pol k ) contains an infinitely decreasing (with respect to inclusion) chain of different closed classes.

In this study of complete, or integrally closed, ideals in a two-dimensional regular local ring (R, m), Zariski established a one-to-one correspondence between prime divisors of R, i.e. rank 1 discrete valuations v birationally dominating R with residue field of transcendence degree 1 over R/m, and m-primary simple complete ideals Iv in R; cf. [17] and [18]. In this correspondence, the blow-up of such an ideal has unique exceptional prime and the localization at this prime is the valuation ring of a prime divisor of R. In this paper, we will study such ideals in a more general setting, so we begin by recalling some definitions and background results.

Two Upper Triassic sphinctozoan sponges of the family Sebargasiidae were recovered from silicified residues collected in Hells Canyon, Oregon. These sponges areAmblysiphonellacf.A. steinmanni(Haas), known from the Tethys region, andColospongia whalenin. sp., an endemic species. The latter sponge was placed in the superfamily Porata by Seilacher (1962). The presence of well-preserved cribrate plates in this sponge, in addition to pores of the chamber walls, is a unique condition never before reported in any porate sphinctozoans. Aporate counterparts known primarily from the Triassic Alps have similar cribrate plates but lack the pores in the chamber walls. The sponges from Hells Canyon are associated with abundant bivalves and corals of marked Tethyan affinities and come from a displaced terrane known as the Wallowa Terrane. It was a tropical island arc, suspected to have paleogeographic relationships with Wrangellia; however, these sponges have not yet been found in any other Cordilleran terrane.
