Arithmetic Equivalence and Isospectrality
ARITHMETIC EQUIVALENCE AND ISOSPECTRALITY ANDREW V.SUTHERLAND ABSTRACT. In these lecture notes we give an introduction to the theory of arithmetic equivalence, a notion originally introduced in a number theoretic setting to refer to number fields with the same zeta function. Gassmann established a direct relationship between arithmetic equivalence and a purely group theoretic notion of equivalence that has since been exploited in several other areas of mathematics, most notably in the spectral theory of Riemannian manifolds by Sunada. We will explicate these results and discuss some applications and generalizations. 1. AN INTRODUCTION TO ARITHMETIC EQUIVALENCE AND ISOSPECTRALITY Let K be a number field (a finite extension of Q), and let OK be its ring of integers (the integral closure of Z in K). The Dedekind zeta function of K is defined by the Dirichlet series X s Y s 1 ζK (s) := N(I)− = (1 N(p)− )− I OK p − ⊆ where the sum ranges over nonzero OK -ideals, the product ranges over nonzero prime ideals, and N(I) := [OK : I] is the absolute norm. For K = Q the Dedekind zeta function ζQ(s) is simply the : P s Riemann zeta function ζ(s) = n 1 n− . As with the Riemann zeta function, the Dirichlet series (and corresponding Euler product) defining≥ the Dedekind zeta function converges absolutely and uniformly to a nonzero holomorphic function on Re(s) > 1, and ζK (s) extends to a meromorphic function on C and satisfies a functional equation, as shown by Hecke [25]. The Dedekind zeta function encodes many features of the number field K: it has a simple pole at s = 1 whose residue is intimately related to several invariants of K, including its class number, and as with the Riemann zeta function, the zeros of ζK (s) are intimately related to the distribution of prime ideals in OK . -
Basic Properties of Filter Convergence Spaces
Basic Properties of Filter Convergence Spaces Barbel¨ M. R. Stadlery, Peter F. Stadlery;z;∗ yInstitut fur¨ Theoretische Chemie, Universit¨at Wien, W¨ahringerstraße 17, A-1090 Wien, Austria zThe Santa Fe Institute, 1399 Hyde Park Road, Santa Fe, NM 87501, USA ∗Address for corresponce Abstract. This technical report summarized facts from the basic theory of filter convergence spaces and gives detailed proofs for them. Many of the results collected here are well known for various types of spaces. We have made no attempt to find the original proofs. 1. Introduction Mathematical notions such as convergence, continuity, and separation are, at textbook level, usually associated with topological spaces. It is possible, however, to introduce them in a much more abstract way, based on axioms for convergence instead of neighborhood. This approach was explored in seminal work by Choquet [4], Hausdorff [12], Katˇetov [14], Kent [16], and others. Here we give a brief introduction to this line of reasoning. While the material is well known to specialists it does not seem to be easily accessible to non-topologists. In some cases we include proofs of elementary facts for two reasons: (i) The most basic facts are quoted without proofs in research papers, and (ii) the proofs may serve as examples to see the rather abstract formalism at work. 2. Sets and Filters Let X be a set, P(X) its power set, and H ⊆ P(X). The we define H∗ = fA ⊆ Xj(X n A) 2= Hg (1) H# = fA ⊆ Xj8Q 2 H : A \ Q =6 ;g The set systems H∗ and H# are called the conjugate and the grill of H, respectively. -
7.2 Binary Operators Closure
last edited April 19, 2016 7.2 Binary Operators A precise discussion of symmetry benefits from the development of what math- ematicians call a group, which is a special kind of set we have not yet explicitly considered. However, before we define a group and explore its properties, we reconsider several familiar sets and some of their most basic features. Over the last several sections, we have considered many di↵erent kinds of sets. We have considered sets of integers (natural numbers, even numbers, odd numbers), sets of rational numbers, sets of vertices, edges, colors, polyhedra and many others. In many of these examples – though certainly not in all of them – we are familiar with rules that tell us how to combine two elements to form another element. For example, if we are dealing with the natural numbers, we might considered the rules of addition, or the rules of multiplication, both of which tell us how to take two elements of N and combine them to give us a (possibly distinct) third element. This motivates the following definition. Definition 26. Given a set S,abinary operator ? is a rule that takes two elements a, b S and manipulates them to give us a third, not necessarily distinct, element2 a?b. Although the term binary operator might be new to us, we are already familiar with many examples. As hinted to earlier, the rule for adding two numbers to give us a third number is a binary operator on the set of integers, or on the set of rational numbers, or on the set of real numbers. -
3. Closed Sets, Closures, and Density
3. Closed sets, closures, and density 1 Motivation Up to this point, all we have done is define what topologies are, define a way of comparing two topologies, define a method for more easily specifying a topology (as a collection of sets generated by a basis), and investigated some simple properties of bases. At this point, we will start introducing some more interesting definitions and phenomena one might encounter in a topological space, starting with the notions of closed sets and closures. Thinking back to some of the motivational concepts from the first lecture, this section will start us on the road to exploring what it means for two sets to be \close" to one another, or what it means for a point to be \close" to a set. We will draw heavily on our intuition about n convergent sequences in R when discussing the basic definitions in this section, and so we begin by recalling that definition from calculus/analysis. 1 n Definition 1.1. A sequence fxngn=1 is said to converge to a point x 2 R if for every > 0 there is a number N 2 N such that xn 2 B(x) for all n > N. 1 Remark 1.2. It is common to refer to the portion of a sequence fxngn=1 after some index 1 N|that is, the sequence fxngn=N+1|as a tail of the sequence. In this language, one would phrase the above definition as \for every > 0 there is a tail of the sequence inside B(x)." n Given what we have established about the topological space Rusual and its standard basis of -balls, we can see that this is equivalent to saying that there is a tail of the sequence inside any open set containing x; this is because the collection of -balls forms a basis for the usual topology, and thus given any open set U containing x there is an such that x 2 B(x) ⊆ U. -

It is designed to give an idea of what is meant by a Boclean algebra and to supply the necessary background material. The only prerequisite for this unit is one year of high school algebra and an open mind so that new concepts will be considered reason able even though they nay conflict with preconceived ideas. A mathematical science when put in final form consists of a set of undefined terms and unproved propositions called postulates, in terrrs of which all other concepts are defined, and from which all other propositions are proved. -

Properties & Multiplying a Polynomial by a Monomial Date
Algebra I Block Name Unit #1: Linear Equations & Inequalities Period Lesson #2: Properties & Multiplying a Polynomial by a Monomial Date Properties In algebra, it is important to know certain properties. These properties are basically rules that allow us to manipulate and work with equations in order to solve for a given variable. We will be dealing with them all year, and you’ve probably actually been using them for awhile without even realizing it! The Commutative Property deals with the order of things. In other words, if I switch the order of two or more items, will my answer be the same? The Commutative Property of Addition states that when it comes to adding two different numbers, the order does . The Commutative Property of Multiplication states that when it comes to multiplying two different numbers, the order does . When it comes to subtracting and dividing numbers, the order matter, so there are no commutative properties for subtraction or division. The Associative Property deals with how things are grouped together. In other words, if I regroup two or more numbers, will my answer still be the same? Just like the commutative property, the associative property applies to addition and multiplication only. There are Identity Properties that apply all four basic operations. When it comes to identity properties, just ask yourself “What can I do to keep the answer the same?” The identity property of addition states that if I add to anything, it will stay the same. The same is true for subtraction. The identity property of multiplication states that if I multiply anything by _______, it will stay the same. -
DEFINITIONS and THEOREMS in GENERAL TOPOLOGY 1. Basic
DEFINITIONS AND THEOREMS IN GENERAL TOPOLOGY 1. Basic definitions. A topology on a set X is defined by a family O of subsets of X, the open sets of the topology, satisfying the axioms: (i) ; and X are in O; (ii) the intersection of finitely many sets in O is in O; (iii) arbitrary unions of sets in O are in O. Alternatively, a topology may be defined by the neighborhoods U(p) of an arbitrary point p 2 X, where p 2 U(p) and, in addition: (i) If U1;U2 are neighborhoods of p, there exists U3 neighborhood of p, such that U3 ⊂ U1 \ U2; (ii) If U is a neighborhood of p and q 2 U, there exists a neighborhood V of q so that V ⊂ U. A topology is Hausdorff if any distinct points p 6= q admit disjoint neigh- borhoods. This is almost always assumed. A set C ⊂ X is closed if its complement is open. The closure A¯ of a set A ⊂ X is the intersection of all closed sets containing X. A subset A ⊂ X is dense in X if A¯ = X. A point x 2 X is a cluster point of a subset A ⊂ X if any neighborhood of x contains a point of A distinct from x. If A0 denotes the set of cluster points, then A¯ = A [ A0: A map f : X ! Y of topological spaces is continuous at p 2 X if for any open neighborhood V ⊂ Y of f(p), there exists an open neighborhood U ⊂ X of p so that f(U) ⊂ V . -

CLOSURES of EXPONENTIAL FAMILIES 3 the (Common) Convex Support of the P.M.’S in E Has Positive Probability Under These P.M.’S, by [7], Remark 3
The Annals of Probability 2005, Vol. 33, No. 2, 582–600 DOI: 10.1214/009117904000000766 c Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2005 CLOSURES OF EXPONENTIAL FAMILIES1 By Imre Csiszar´ and Frantiˇsek Matu´ˇs Hungarian Academy of Sciences and Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic The variation distance closure of an exponential family with a convex set of canonical parameters is described, assuming no regu- larity conditions. The tools are the concepts of convex core of a mea- sure and extension of an exponential family, introduced previously by the authors, and a new concept of accessible faces of a convex set. Two other closures related to the information divergence are also characterized. 1. Introduction. Exponential families of probability measures (p.m.’s) include many of the parametric families frequently used in statistics, proba- bility and information theory. Their mathematical theory has been worked out to a considerable extent [1, 2, 3, 11]. Although limiting considerations are important and do appear in the literature, less attention has been paid to determining closures of exponential families. For families supported by a finite or countable set, closures were consid- ered in [1], pages 154–156, and [2], pages 191–201, respectively, the latter with regularity conditions. In the general case, different closure concepts come into account. Our main result, Theorem 2 in Section 3, determines the closure in variation distance (variation closure) of a full exponential fam- ily and, more generally, of any subfamily with a convex set of canonical parameters. Weak closures appear much harder to describe in general, but Theorem 1 in Section 3 is a step in that direction.
