This is attained by a thorough explication of the principle of indiscernibles, the abolition of the principle of locality, the advanced conception ofentelecheia in late Leibniz, and the character of the perception of each monad, which allow to discover in Leibniz's idea of space the notion of the hologram, and the holographic interconnectedness of things in the Universe.展开更多

It is shown that if G has nilpotent class 2, then the automorphism group Ant(X) of X is isomorphic to the semidirect product GR x Ant(G,S), where GR is the right regular representation of G and Aut(G,S) is the subgroup of the automorphism group Aut(G) of G which fixes S setwise. However the result is not true if G has nilpotent class 3 and this paper provides a counterexample.展开更多

The high order edge connectivity Ni, i1, is the number of edge outsets of size i. TO determine all Ni, i 1, for a general graph is NP-hard. In this paper, the authors evaluated the restricted edge connectivity and the high order edge connectivity Ni, 1 i -1, for any connected Abelian Cayley graphs explicitly.展开更多

For each proper Poincar6 subgroup which is a semi-product of proper lorentz group with the spacetime translation group T(4), we investigate all possible deformations and obtain all the possible natural representations inherited from the 5 - d representation of Poincar6 group. We find from the obtained natural representation that rotation operation may have additional accompanied scale transformation when the original Lorentz subgroup is deformed and the boost operation gets the additional accompanied scale transformation in all the deformation cases. The additional accompanied scale transformation has a strong constrain on the possible invariant metric function of the corresponding geometry and the field theories in the spacetime with the corresponding geometry.展开更多

文摘Let G be a p-group (p odd prime) and let X = Cay(G, S) be a 4-valent connected Cayley graph. It is shown that if G has nilpotent class 2, then the automorphism group Ant(X) of X is isomorphic to the semidirect product GR x Ant(G,S), where GR is the right regular representation of G and Aut(G,S) is the subgroup of the automorphism group Aut(G) of G which fixes S setwise. However the result is not true if G has nilpotent class 3 and this paper provides a counterexample.
