Convergence of a stochastic process is an intrinsic property quite relevant for its successful practical for example for the function optimization problem. Lyapunov functions are widely used as tools to prove convergence of optimization procedures. However, identifying a Lyapunov function for a specific stochastic process is a difficult and creative task. This work aims to provide a geometric explanation to convergence results and to state and identify conditions for the convergence of not exclusively optimization methods but any stochastic process. Basically, we relate the expected directions set of a stochastic process with the half-space of a conservative vector field, concepts defined along the text. After some reasonable conditions, it is possible to assure convergence when the expected direction resembles enough to some vector field. We translate two existent and useful convergence results into convergence of processes that resemble to particular conservative vector fields. This geometric point of view could make it easier to identify Lyapunov functions for new stochastic processes which we would like to prove its convergence.

Yamabe Soliton

In this paper, we give some classifications of the k-Yamabe solitons on the hypersurfaces of the Euclidean spaces from the vector field point of view. In several results on k-Yamabe solitons with a concurrent vector field on submanifolds in Riemannian manifolds, is proved that a k-Yamabe soliton (Mn,g,vT,λ) on a hypersurface in the Euclidean space Rn+1 is contained either in a hypersphere or a hyperplane. We provide an example to support this study and all of the results in this paper can be implemented to Yamabe solitons for k-curvature with k=1.

Moving Fluid

3D cone beam vector field tomography (VFT) aims for reconstructing and visualizing the velocity field of a moving fluid by measuring line integrals of projections of the vector field. The data are obtained by ultrasound measurements along a scanning curve which surrounds the object. From a mathematical point of view, we have to deal with the inversion of the vectorial cone beam transform. Since the vectorial cone beam transform of any gradient vector field with compact support is identically equal to zero, we can only hope to reconstruct the solenoidal part of an arbitrary vector field. In this paper we will at first summarize important properties of the cone beam transform for three-dimensional solenoidal vector fields and then propose a solution approach based on the method of approximate inverse. In this context, we intensively make use of results from scalar 3D computerized tomography. The findings presented in the paper will continuously be illustrated by pictures from first numerical experiments done with exact, simulated data.

AbstractWe introduce a family of pairings between a bounded divergence-measure vector field and a function u of bounded variation, depending on the choice of the pointwise representative of u. We prove that these pairings inherit from the standard one, introduced in [G. Anzellotti, Pairings between measures and bounded functions and compensated compactness, Ann. Mat. Pura Appl. (4) 135 1983, 293–318], [G.-Q. Chen and H. Frid, Divergence-measure fields and hyperbolic conservation laws, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 147 1999, 2, 89–118], all the main properties and features (e.g. coarea, Leibniz, and Gauss–Green formulas). We also characterize the pairings making the corresponding functionals semicontinuous with respect to the strict convergence in \mathrm{BV}. We remark that the standard pairing in general does not share this property.

Geometric Objects

Motivated by the hindrance of defining metric tensors compatible with the underlying spinor structure, other than the ones obtained via a conformal transformation, we study how some geometric objects are affected by the action of a disformal transformation in the closest scenario possible: the disformal transformation in the direction of a null-like vector field. Subsequently, we analyze symmetry properties such as mutual geodesics and mutual Killing vectors, generalized Weyl transformations that leave the disformal relation invariant, and introduce the concept of disformal Killing vector fields. In most cases, we use the Schwarzschild metric, in the Kerr–Schild formulation, to verify our calculations and results. We also revisit the disformal operator using a Newman–Penrose basis to show that, in the null-like case, this operator is not diagonalizable.

Let M be a 3-manifold with boundary ∂M. Let X be a C∞, vector field on M, tangent to ∂M, exhibiting a singular cycle associated to a hyperbolic equilibrium σ∈∂M with real eigenvalues λss < λs < 0 < λu satisfying λs - λss - 2λu > 0. We prove under generic conditions and k large enough the existence of a Ck robust transitive set of X, that is, any Ck vector field Ck close to X exhibits a transitive set containing the cycle. In particular, C∞ vector fields exhibiting Ck robust transitive sets, for k large enough, which are not singular-hyperbolic do exist on any compact 3-manifold with boundary.

Chua’s oscillator is topologically conjugate to a large class of vector fields with a scalar non-linearity. In this letter, we give an algorithm which, given a vector field in this class, finds the parameters for Chua’s oscillator for which Chua’s oscillator is topologically conjugate to it. We illustrate this by transforming Sparrow’s system and the chaotic Colpitts oscillator into equivalent Chua’s oscillators.

AbstractModerate deviation principles (MDPs) for random walks on covering graphs with groups of polynomial volume growth are discussed in a geometric point of view. They deal with any intermediate spatial scalings between those of laws of large numbers and those of central limit theorems. The corresponding rate functions are given by quadratic forms determined by the Albanese metric associated with the given random walks. We apply MDPs to establish laws of the iterated logarithm on the covering graphs by characterizing the set of all limit points of the normalized random walks.

In the present paper, we introduce a new class of natural metrics on the tangent bundle $TM$ of the Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ denoted by $G^{f,h}$ which is named a twisted Sasakian metric. A necessary and sufficient conditions under which a vector field is harmonic with respect to the twisted Sasakian metric are established. Some examples of harmonic vector fields are presented as well.
