Restriction formula and subadditivity property related to multiplier ideal sheaves

We give a restriction formula on jumping numbers which is a reformulation of Demailly–Ein–Lazarsfeld’s important restriction formula for multiplier ideal sheaves and a generalization of Demailly–Kollár’s important restriction formula on complex singularity exponents, and then we establish necessary conditions for the extremal case in the reformulated formula; we pose the subadditivity property on the complex singularity exponents of plurisubharmonic functions which is a generalization of Demailly–Kollár’s fundamental subadditivity property, and then we establish necessary conditions for the extremal case in the generalization. We also obtain two sharp relations on jumping numbers, introduce a new invariant of plurisubharmonic singularities and get its decreasing property for consecutive differences.

Stress Singularities near Interface Crack Tip for Mode II of Orthotropic Bi-Material

Using the method of composite material complex and constructing new stress functions with complex singularity exponents, the problem of singularities near interface crack tip for mode II of orthotropic bi-material is studied. Boundary value problems of generalized bi-harmonic equations can be solved with the help of boundary conditions, then four kinds of stress singularities are deduced, respectively, such as the constant singularity at λ=-1/2, the non-constant singularity at λ=-1/2+ε , the constant oscillation singularity at λ=-1/2+iε, and non-constant oscillation singularity at λ=-1/2+c+iε. For each case, the analytic expressions for stress intensity factors near the central-penetrated interface crack tip for mode II of orthotropic bi-material are obtained.

Open-book decompositions of 𝕊5 and real singularities

In this article, we study the topology of the family of real analytic germs F : (ℂ3, 0) → (ℂ, 0) given by [Formula: see text] with p, q, r ∈ ℕ, p, q, r ≥ 2 and (p, q) = 1. Such a germ has an isolated singularity at 0 and gives rise to a Milnor fibration [Formula: see text]. Moreover, it is known that the link LF is a Seifert manifold and that it is always homeomorphic to the link of a complex singularity. However, we prove that in almost all the cases the open-book decomposition of 𝕊5 given by the Milnor fibration of F cannot come from the Milnor fibration of a complex singularity in ℂ3.

Analysis of complex singularities in high-Reynolds-number Navier–Stokes solutions

Numerical solutions of the laminar Prandtl boundary-layer and Navier–Stokes equations are considered for the case of the two-dimensional uniform flow past an impulsively-started circular cylinder. The various viscous–inviscid interactions that occur during the unsteady separation process are investigated by applying complex singularity analysis to the wall shear and streamwise velocity component of the two solutions. This is carried out using two different methodologies, namely a singularity-tracking method and the Padé approximation. It is shown how the van Dommelen and Shen singularity that occurs in solutions of the Prandtl boundary-layer equations evolves in the complex plane before leading to a separation singularity in finite time. Navier–Stokes solutions, computed at different Reynolds numbers in the range$10^3 \leq Re \leq 10^5$, are characterized by the presence of various complex singularities that can be related to different physical interactions acting over multiple spatial scales. The first interaction developing in the separation process is large-scale interaction that is visible for all the Reynolds numbers considered, and it signals the first relevant differences between the Prandtl and Navier–Stokes solutions. For$Re\geq O(10^4)$, a small-scale interaction follows the large-scale interaction. The onset of these interactions is related to the characteristic changes of the streamwise pressure gradient on the circular cylinder. Even if these interactions physically differ from that prescribed by the Prandtl solution, and they set a possible limit on the comparison of Prandtl solutions with Navier–Stokes solutions, it is shown how the asymptotic validity of boundary-layer theory is strongly supported by the results that have been obtained through the complex singularity analysis.

Weakly directed self-avoiding walks

International audience We define a new family of self-avoiding walks (SAW) on the square lattice, called $\textit{weakly directed walks}$. These walks have a simple characterization in terms of the irreducible bridges that compose them. We determine their generating function. This series has a complex singularity structure and in particular, is not D-finite. The growth constant is approximately 2.54 and is thus larger than that of all natural families of SAW enumerated so far (but smaller than that of general SAW, which is about 2.64). We also prove that the end-to-end distance of weakly directed walks grows linearly. Finally, we study a diagonal variant of this model. Nous définissons une nouvelle famille de chemins auto-évitants (CAE) sur le réseau carré, appelés $\textit{chemins faiblement dirigés}$. Ces chemins ont une caractérisation simple en termes des ponts irréductibles qui les composent. Nous déterminons leur série génératrice. Cette série a une structure de singularité complexe et n'est en particulier pas D-finie. La constante de croissance est environ 2,54, ce qui est supérieur à toutes les familles naturelles de SAW étudiées jusqu'à présent, mais inférieur aux CAE généraux (dont la constante est environ 2,64). Nous prouvons également que la distance moyenne entre les extrémités du chemin croît linéairement. Enfin, nous étudions une variante diagonale du modèle.
