Consider a formal series with partial sums and the corresponding power series . Throughout we will assume that f is analytic for |z| <1, i.e. that A classical theorem of Fatou-Riesz (see (1, 4)) states that if and
In what follows, character means irreducible complex character.
Let G be a finite group and let % be a character of a normal subgroup N. If χ extends to a character of G then χ is stabilised by G, but the converse is false. The aim of this paper is to prove the following theorem which gives a sufficient condition for χ to be extended to a character of G.
In a paper recently printed in the Society's Proceedings, I considered the effect of compressibility in the fluid on the motion of straight vortices; the present paper treats of circular vortex rings in a compressible fluid. The circle passing through the centres of the circular cross sections of the vortex filament will be called the “circular axis,” and the perpendicular to the plane of the circular axis through its centre, the “axis” of the vortex. In the notation employed, a denotes the radius of the circular axis, and e that of the cross section of the filament, while ω represents vorticity, and ρ density. It is also convenient to denote the area of the cross section— i.e., πe, by σ. Following Helmholtz, it will be supposed that e/a is always very small, and that the cross section is truly circular. Certain small inconsistencies in the ordinary theory following from this last assumption will be pointed out, though they do not seem seriously to affect the general applicability of the results. The axis of the vortex ring is taken as axis of z, and z, r, θ are the ordinary cylindrical co-ordinates. It is also convenient to denote by r' the distance of a point from the circular axis of a ring, and by ψ the inclination of this distance to the plane of the circular axis. The effects of the vorticity and variation in density may be considered separately.
1. Points, n in number, A, B, C, D, E, … ., are taken at random in a plane, and through each is drawn a line in a random direction. The only condition imposed is that no two of these lines may be parallel.
(i). Two points A, B, define a circle S (AB) which passes through A, B and the intersection of the random lines through A and B. Its centre is denoted by (AB). Each pair of the points gives such a circle and centre.
A smooth map of a differentiable n-manifold into Euclidean (n+k)-space is called an immersion if its Jacobian has rank n at each point of M. If f is also 1-1, it is called an embedding.
The following note indicates how the equation to the locus of the straight lines which intersect three given lines may be obtained by the use of the conditions that three planes should have a line of intersection.
Three given planes
have a line of intersection if any two of the determinants in the scheme
Many-valued or non-Aristotelian calculi of propositions (logics) were originally introduced by generalisation of the truth-table method. It was known by the end of the nineteenth century that ordinary “binary” formulae of the calculus of propositions, such as
could be verified directly by means of the truth-table:
although the terminology and symbolism used were different.
In this paper we give a method for the solution of the dual integral equations
where Jv and Yv are Bessel functions of the first and second kind, −½≦α≦½, f1(ρ) and f2(ρ) are known functions and ψ(ξ) is to be determined. Such equations arise in the discussion of boundary value problems for half-spaces containing a cylindrical cavity. For example, let us take the problem of finding a potential function φ(ρ, θ, z) which satisfies Laplace's equation for
subject to the usual regularity conditions and the following boundary conditions:
In this paper we study the existence of strongly exposed points in unbounded closed and convex subsets of the positive cone of ordered Banach spaces and we prove the following characterization for the space l1(Γ): A Banach lattice X is order-isomorphic to l1(Γ) iff X has the Schur property and X* has quasi-interior positive elements.
