### asymptotic behavior of minimum dilatations on punctured surfaces

Let $l_{g,n}$ be the logarithm of minimum dilatation for pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms on surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. Let $n$ be fixed and $g$ varies. Is the asymptotic behavior of ...

### Proving the area of a pentagon [closed]

Suppose that a regular pentagon circumscribes a circle of radius r. Show that the area of the pentagon is 5r²tan(36°). I know that the area of a triangle is 1/2 ...

### Hyper-Kaehler Strucutre for Compact Lie Groups?

We know from the classy work of Joyce that "any compact Lie group becomes hypercomplex after it is multiplied by a sufficiently big torus". The quote comes from the Wikipedia page. I am asking if it ...

### Algebraic points of uniformly bounded degree on an algebraic variety

Let $k$ be a perfect field, and let $\bar k$ be a fixed algebraic closure of $k$. Let $\overline{X}$ be a nonempty smooth algebraic variety over $\bar k$. Does there exist a natural number ...

### A C(B)-module structure on the function algebra of the total space of a vector bunlde $\pi:V \to B$

For a continuous vector bundle $\pi:V \to B$ vector bundle over a compact Hausdorff space $B$, and $C(B)$, $C(V)$ the continuous complex valued functions on $B$ and $V$ respectively, we can give ...

### Simplest example of failure of finite Galois descent in algebraic $K$-theory?

Let $E \to F$ be a $G$-Galois extension of fields. What is the simplest example where the natural map $K(E) \to K(F)^{hG}$ is not an equivalence on connective covers (i.e., where finite Galois ...

### Can Suslin's problem be decided with these axioms? [on hold]

The axiom of completion denoted +C, states: "Only theorems of the axioms are true." Let ZFC plus the axiom of completion be indicated by ZFC+C. It appears at first trivial to show that the continuum ...

### The homotopy category is not complete nor cocomplete

I understand that the homotopy category of (pointed) topological spaces and continuous maps is not complete. Nor is it cocomplete. In particular it neither has all pullbacks nor all pushouts. What ...

### Is there an efficient algorithm for testing isomorphism of projective planes?

Isomorphism testing is a core problem in computational complexity. Recently, Babai has shown that Graph Isomorphism problem for general graphs can be solved in quasipolynomial time. Long time before ...

### Dual of colimit in $\text{Ban}_1$

I learned in J. Castillo's Hitchhiker guide to categorical Banach space theory that, by a theorem of Semadeni and Zidenberg, limits and colimits exist in the category $\text{Ban}_1$ of Banach spaces ...

### How to retrieve eigenvectors from shifted QR algorithm?

I understand that the key to retrieve eigenvectors in the non-shifted QR algorithm is to accumulate the transformations at each steps in the following way: $Q = \Pi_i Q_i$ Can we accumulate the ...
Let $E$ be $\mathbb{R}^d$ for $d\geq 1$. Let $A \subset E$. Let $X$ be a Feller process en $E$, and let $L$ be its infinitesimal generator. I want to prove that $A$ is absorbing. I know that it is ...
