AbstractThe paper has two relatively distinct but connected goals; the first is to define the notion of Padé approximation of Weyl–Stiltjes transforms on an arbitrary compact Riemann surface of higher genus. The data consists of a contour in the Riemann surface and a measure on it, together with the additional datum of a local coordinate near a point and a divisor of degree g. The denominators of the resulting Padé-like approximation also satisfy an orthogonality relation and are sections of appropriate line bundles. A Riemann–Hilbert problem for a square matrix of rank two is shown to characterize these orthogonal sections, in a similar fashion to the ordinary orthogonal polynomial case. The second part extends this idea to explore its connection to integrable systems. The same data can be used to define a pairing between two sequences of line bundles. The locus in the deformation space where the pairing becomes degenerate for fixed degree coincides with the zeros of a “tau” function. We show how this tau function satisfies the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili hierarchy with respect to either deformation parameters, and a certain modification of the 2-Toda hierarchy when considering the whole sequence of tau functions. We also show how this construction is related to the Krichever construction of algebro-geometric solutions.

In the first part of this paper we find supergravity solutions corresponding to branes on worldvolumes of the form Rd×Σ where Σ is a Riemann surface. These theories arise when we wrap branes on holomorphic Riemann surfaces inside K3 or CY manifolds. In some cases the theory at low energies is a conformal field theory with two less dimensions. We find some non-singular supersymmetric compactifications of M-theory down to AdS5. We also propose a criterion for permissible singularities in supergravity solutions. In the second part of this paper, which can be read independently of the first, we show that there are no non-singular Randall-Sundrum or de-Sitter compactifications for large class of gravity theories.

Some years ago, Kuramochi gave in his paper [5] a very interesting theorem, which can be stated as follows.THEOREM OF KURAMOCHI. Let R be a hyperbolic Riemann surface of the class Of OHR(OHD,resp.). Then, for any compact subset K of R such that R—K is connected, R—K as an open Riemann surface belongs to the class 0AB(OAD resp.).

Abstract We compute a presentation of the fundamental group of a higher-rank graph using a coloured graph description of higher-rank graphs developed by the third author. We compute the fundamental groups of several examples from the literature. Our results fit naturally into the suite of known geometrical results about higher-rank graphs when we show that the abelianization of the fundamental group is the homology group. We end with a calculation which gives a non-standard presentation of the fundamental group of the Klein bottle to the one normally found in the literature.

Abstract We introduce the fundamental group ℱ(A) of a simple σ-inital C*-algebra A with unique (up to scalar multiple) densely defined lower semicontinuous trace. This is a generalization of Fundamental Group of Simple C*-algebras with Unique Trace I and II by Nawata andWatatani. Our definition in this paper makes sense for stably projectionless C*-algebras. We show that there exist separable stably projectionless C*-algebras such that their fundamental groups are equal to ℝ×+ by using the classification theorem of Razak and Tsang. This is a contrast to the unital case in Nawata and Watatani. This study is motivated by the work of Kishimoto and Kumjian.

In this paper we shall be concerned with the algebraic structure of certain rings of functions meromorphic on a non-compact (connected) Riemann surface Ω. In this setting, A = A(Ω) and K= K(Ω) denote (respectively) the ring of all complex-valued functions analytic on Ω and its field of quotients, the field of functions meromorphic on Ω. The rings considered here are those subrings of K containing A,which we term A-rings of K. Most of the results given here were previously announced without proof (15) and are contained in the author's doctoral dissertation (16), completed at the University of Illinois under the direction of Professor M. Heins, whose encouragement and advice are gratefully acknowledged.

In this paper we generalize to Riemann surfaces a theorem of Helson and Lowdenslager in (2) describing the closed subspaces of L2(﹛|z| = 1﹜) that are invariant under multiplication by eiθ.Let R be a region on a Riemann surface with boundary Γ consisting of a finite number of disjoint simple closed analytic curves such that R ⋃ Γ is compact and R lies on one side of Γ. Let dμ be the harmonic measure on Γ with respect to a fixed point t0 on R. We shall consider the closed subspaces of L2(Γ, dμ) that are invariant under multiplication by functions in A (R) = ﹛F|F continuous on , analytic on R}.

Abstract We consider a compact Riemann surface R of arbitrary genus, with a finite number of non-overlapping quasicircles, which separate R into two subsets: a connected Riemann surface $$\Sigma $$ Σ , and the union $$\mathcal {O}$$ O of a finite collection of simply connected regions. We prove that the Schiffer integral operator mapping the Bergman space of anti-holomorphic one-forms on $$\mathcal {O}$$ O to the Bergman space of holomorphic forms on $$\Sigma $$ Σ is an isomorphism onto the exact one-forms, when restricted to the orthogonal complement of the set of forms on all of R. We then apply this to prove versions of the Plemelj–Sokhotski isomorphism and jump decomposition for such a configuration. Finally we obtain some approximation theorems for the Bergman space of one-forms and Dirichlet space of holomorphic functions on $$\Sigma $$ Σ by elements of Bergman space and Dirichlet space on fixed regions in R containing $$\Sigma $$ Σ .
