    Maximal linear subspaces of strong self-dual 2-forms and the Bonan 4-form
    (Elsevier, 2011) Bilge, Ayşe Humeyra; Koçak, Şahin; Department of Physics; Dereli, Tekin; Faculty Member; Department of Physics; College of Sciences; 201358
    The notion of self-duality of 2-forms in 4-dimensions plays an eminent role in many areas of mathematics and physics, but although the 2-forms have a genuine meaning related to curvature and gauge-field-strength in higher dimensions also, their "self-duality" is something which is almost avoided above 4-dimensions. We show that self-duality of 2-forms is a very natural notion in higher (even) dimensions also and we prove the equivalence of some scattered and rarely used definitions in the literature. We demonstrate the usefulness of this higher self-duality by studying it in 8-dimensions and we derive a natural expression for the Bonan form in terms of self-dual 2-forms and we give an explicit expression of the local action of SO(8) on the Bonan form.

    On the well-posedness of the hyperelastic rod equation
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2019) N/A; Department of Mathematics; İnci, Hasan; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 274184
    In this paper we consider the hyperelastic rod equation on the Sobolev spaces Hs(R), s>3/2. Using a geometric approach we show that for any T>0 the corresponding solution map, u(0)?u(T), is nowhere locally uniformly continuous. The method applies also to the periodic case Hs(T), s>3/2.

    Matrix polynomials with specified eigenvalues
    (Elsevier Science Inc, 2015) Karow, Michael; Department of Mathematics; Mengi, Emre; Faculty Member; Department of Mathematics; College of Sciences; 113760
    This work concerns the distance in the 2-norm from a given matrix polynomial to a nearest polynomial with a specified number of its eigenvalues at specified locations in the complex plane. Initially, we consider perturbations of the constant coefficient matrix only. A singular value optimization characterization is derived for the associated distance. We also consider the distance in the general setting, when all of the coefficient matrices are perturbed. In this general setting, we obtain a lower bound in terms of another singular value optimization problem. The singular value optimization problems derived facilitate the numerical computation of the distances.

    ‘Anti-commutable’ local pre-Leibniz algebroids and admissible connections
    (Elsevier, 2023) Department of Physics; N/A; Dereli, Tekin; Doğan, Keremcan; Faculty Member; PhD Student; Department of Physics; College of Sciences; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; 201358; N/A
    The concept of algebroid is convenient as a basis for constructions of geometrical frameworks. For example, metric-affine and generalized geometries can be written on Lie and Courant algebroids, respectively. Furthermore, string theories might make use of many other algebroids such as metric algebroids, higher Courant algebroids, or conformal Courant algebroids. Working on the possibly most general algebroid structure, which generalizes many of the algebroids used in the literature, is fruitful as it creates a chance to study all of them at once. Local pre-Leibniz algebroids are such general ones in which metric-connection geometries are possible to construct. On the other hand, the existence of the 'locality operator', which is present for the left-Leibniz rule for the bracket, necessitates the modification of torsion and curvature operators in order to achieve tensorial quantities. In this paper, this modification of torsion and curvature is explained from the point of view that the modification is applied to the bracket instead. This leads one to consider 'anti-commutable' local pre-Leibniz algebroids which satisfy an anti-commutativity-like property defined with respect to a choice of an equivalence class of connections. These 'admissible' connections are claimed to be the necessary ones while working on a geometry of algebroids. This claim is due to the fact that one can prove many desirable properties and relations if one uses only admissible connections. For instance, for admissible connections, we prove the first and second Bianchi identities, Cartan structure equations, Cartan magic formula, the construction of Levi-Civita connections, the decomposition of connection in terms of torsion and non-metricity. These all are possible because the modified bracket becomes anti-symmetric for an admissible connection so that one can apply the machinery of almost-or pre-Lie algebroids. We investigate various algebroid structures from the literature and show that they admit admissible connections which are metric-compatible in some generalized sense. Moreover, we prove that local pre-Leibniz algebroids that are not anti-commutable cannot be equipped with a torsion-free, and in particular Levi-Civita, connection.
