Nilpotent Bases for a Class of Non-Integrable Distributions with Applications to Trajectory Generation for Nonholonomic Systems [PDF]
This paper develops a constructive method for finding a nilpotent basis for a special class of smooth nonholonomic distributions. The main tool is the use of the Goursat normal form theorem which arises in the study of exterior differential systems.

Totally deranged elements of almost simple groups and invariable generating sets
Abstract By a classical theorem of Jordan, every faithful transitive action of a non‐trivial finite group has a derangement (an element with no fixed points). The existence of derangements with additional properties has attracted much attention, especially for faithful primitive actions of almost simple groups.

Initial value problems for wave equations on manifolds
We study the global theory of linear wave equations for sections of vector bundles over globally hyperbolic Lorentz manifolds. We introduce spaces of finite energy sections and show well-posedness of the Cauchy problem in those spaces.

Minimal surfaces with symmetries
Abstract Let G$G$ be a finite group acting on a connected open Riemann surface X$X$ by holomorphic automorphisms and acting on a Euclidean space Rn$\mathbb {R}^n$ (n⩾3)$(n\geqslant 3)$ by orthogonal transformations. We identify a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a G$G$‐equivariant conformal minimal immersion F:X→Rn$F:X\rightarrow

Word maps with constants on symmetric groups
Abstract We study word maps with constants on symmetric groups. Even though there are non‐trivial mixed identities of bounded length that are valid for all symmetric groups, we show that no such identities can hold in the limit in a metric sense. Moreover, we prove that word maps with constants and non‐trivial content, that are short enough, have an ...

Conformal scattering theory for the linearized gravity fields on Schwarzschild spacetime
We provide in this paper a first step to obtain the conformal scattering theory for the linearized gravity fields on the Schwarzschild spacetime by using the conformal geometric approach.

A nonlocal problem for fourth order hyperbolic equations with multiple characteristic
In this paper, we study fourth order differential equations with multiple characteristics and dominated low terms. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a Riemann function for this equation, and then provide an integral representation of the general ...

On the Goursat problem for a second order equation
We consider the Goursat problem for second order operators and show existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions. We prove one of the results of Hasegawa (J. Math. Soc. Japan 50 (1998), no. 3, 639--662) by the energy method.

Conformal scattering for a nonlinear wave equation on a curved background
The purpose of this paper is to establish a geometric scattering result for a conformally invariant nonlinear wave equation on an asymptotically simple spacetime. The scattering operator is obtained via trace operators at null infinities.
