The primary concerns of this article are the physical implications and observable consequences of geometric phases arising from the deformed patterns exhibited by a rod subjected to end moments. This mechanical problem is classical and has a long tradition dating back to Kirchhoff. However, the perspective from geometric phases seems to go more deeply into relations between local strain states and global geometry of shapes, and infuses genuinely new insights and better understanding, which enable one to describe this kind of deformation in a neat and elegant way. On the other hand, visual representations of these deformations provide beautiful illustrations of geometric phases and render the meaning of the abstract concept of holonomy more direct and transparent.展开更多

The invariant sets and exact sohltions to nonlinear diffusion equation ut = ( D(u)ux)x + Q(x, u)ux + P(x, u), are discussed. It is shown that there exist several classes of solutions to the equation that belong to the invariant set Eo.展开更多

It is shown that there exists a class of solutions to the equations, which are invariant with respect to the set $$E_0 = \{ u:u_x = v_x F(u),u_y = v_y F(u)\} ,$$ where v is a smooth function of variables x, y and F is a smooth function of u. This extends the results of Galaktionov (2001) and for the 1+1-dimensional nonlinear evolution equations.展开更多

The data is collected continuously and the survey design is structured in such a way asto provide quarterly estimates. These quarterly estimates are published each month as ‘rollingquarterly’ estimates. Currently the Office for National Statistics (ONS) publish rolling quarterlyestimates, and these have been assessed to be of sufficient quality to be badged as ‘NationalStatistics’. ONS also publish monthly estimates of a selection of labour force variables, but theseare designated ‘Experimental Statistics’ due to concerns over the quality of these data. Due to thesample design of the LFS, monthly estimates of change are volatile as there is no sample overlap.A state space model can be used to develop improved estimates of monthly change, accountingfor aspects of the survey design. An additional source of information related to unemployment isadministrative data on the number of people claiming unemployment related benefits. This datais more timely than survey data collected in the LFS and can be used to provide early estimatesof monthly unemployment.展开更多

文摘Abstract There exists rare integration formulas over quaternions due to the noncommutativity of quarternions multplication. Based on the class operator's formula of rotation group we derive a Gaussian integral formula for quaternions, which is similar in form to the integration for coherent state's completeness relation.

文摘The invariant sets and the solutions of the 1+2-dimensional generalized thin film equation are discussed. It is shown that there exists a class of solutions to the equations, which are invariant with respect to the set $$E_0 = \{ u:u_x = v_x F(u),u_y = v_y F(u)\} ,$$ where v is a smooth function of variables x, y and F is a smooth function of u. This extends the results of Galaktionov (2001) and for the 1+1-dimensional nonlinear evolution equations.
