Free to readers and authors, Electronic Research Announcements in Mathematical Sciences rapidly publishes announcements of significant advances in all branches of mathematics and short complete papers of original research (up to about 15 journal pages). Research announcements are an opportunity for lucid exposition of ideas and context unburdened by technical detail. All articles should be designed to communicate their contents to a broad mathematical audience and must meet high standards for mathematical content and clarity. After review and acceptance by the entire Editorial Board, articles enter production for immediate publication.

ERA is a continuation of Electronic Research Announcements of the AMS published by the American Mathematical Society from 1995 to the middle of 2007. After over two decades of leading this journal, Svetlana Katok became Founding Editor Emerita in January 2017.

Abstract:

We show how geodesics, Jacobi vector fields, and flag curvature of a Finsler metric behave under Zermelo deformation with respect to a Killing vector field. We also show that Zermelo deformation with respect to a Killing vector field of a locally symmetric Finsler metric is also locally symmetric.

Abstract:

We consider a discrete dynamical system on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold and we determine the concept of a hyperbolic set for it. We insert a condition in the definition of a hyperbolic set which implies to the unique decomposition of a part of tangent space (at each point of this set) to two unstable and stable subspaces with exponentially increasing and exponentially decreasing dynamics on them. We prove the continuity of this decomposition via the metric created by a torsion-free pseudo-Riemannian connection. We present a global attractor for a diffeomorphism on an open submanifold of the hyperbolic space \begin{document}$H^2(1)$\end{document} which is not a hyperbolic set for it.

Abstract:

We provide a coherent picture of our efforts thus far in extending real algebra and its links to the theory of quadratic forms over ordered fields in the noncommutative direction, using hermitian forms and "ordered" algebras with involution.

Abstract:

We present a condition for towers of fiber bundles which implies that the fundamental group of the total space has a nilpotent subgroup of finite index whose torsion is contained in its center. Moreover, the index of the subgroup can be bounded in terms of the fibers of the tower.

Our result is motivated by the conjecture that every almost nonnegatively curved closed \begin{document}$m$\end{document}-dimensional manifold \begin{document}$M$\end{document} admits a finite cover \begin{document}$\tilde M$\end{document} for which the number of leafs is bounded in terms of \begin{document}$m$\end{document} such that the torsion of the fundamental group \begin{document}$π_1 \tilde M$\end{document} lies in its center.

Abstract:

In this work we study the Cosine Transform operator and the Sine Transform operator in the setting of Henstock-Kurzweil integration theory. We show that these related transformation operators have a very different behavior in the context of Henstock-Kurzweil functions. In fact, while one of them is a bounded operator, the other one is not. This is a generalization of a result of E. Liflyand in the setting of Lebesgue integration.

Abstract:

We provide an alternative, constructive proof that the collection \begin{document}${\mathcal{M}}$\end{document} of isometry classes of compact metric spaces endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance is a geodesic space. The core of our proof is a construction of explicit geodesics on \begin{document}${\mathcal{M}}$\end{document}. We also provide several interesting examples of geodesics on \begin{document}${\mathcal{M}}$\end{document}, including a geodesic between \begin{document}${\mathbb{S}}^0$\end{document} and \begin{document}${\mathbb{S}}^n$\end{document} for any \begin{document}$n\geq 1$\end{document}.
