Géométrie au XXe siècle
The class of Q-convex bodies is defined, and the uniqueness result proved by Gardner and McMullen in 1980 for planar convex bodies is extended to this new class.
In this paper, we describe an example of a hyperkaehler quotient of a Banach manifold by a Banach Lie group. Although the initial manifold is not diffeomorphic to a Hilbert manifold (not even to a manifold modelled on a reflexive Banach space), the quotient space obtained is a Hilbert manifold, which can furthermore be identified either with the co...
Among the many families of nonperiodic tilings known so far, SCD tilings are still a bit mysterious. Here, we determine the diffraction spectra of point sets derived from SCD tilings and show that they have no absolutely continuous part, that they have a uniformly discrete pure point part on the z-axis, and that they are otherwise supported on a se...
Pasch est généralement considéré comme le premier à avoir proposé une axiomatisation de la géométrie. Mais ses Vorlesungen über neure Geometrie (1882) contiennent plusieurs éléments étrangers au paradigme hilbertien. Pasch soutient ainsi que la « géométrie élémentaire », dont il propose une axiomatisation complète, est une théorie empiriquement vra...
The concept of fractal geometry, introduced by Mandelbrot has been explored in diverse areas of science, including acoustics [1]. First part of this work relates the properties of far-field Fraunhofer region diffraction in wave acoustics for characterizing reflection on a periodic regular indented plane. Diffusion prediction of a self-similar struc...
We study fundamental groups of Kähler manifolds via their cuts, or relative ends.
La dynamique des crues entre les digues d'une rivière à fond mobile et la dynamique des bancs qui en résulte entraînent une forte variabilité des formes dans le lit. L'alternance des seuils et des mouilles accompagnant ces dynamiques génère une grande diversité des habitats aquatiques qui permet de renforcer la valeur écologique du cours d'eau. Dan...
