| Research Abstract |
Head investigator Kawakami has studied the following. In the first year:
He and Prof. Tsuchiya (Kanazawa Univ.) proved that any Cr,α manifold (manifold pair) has a C∞ smoothing by using a method of J.R. Munkres.
He and Dr. Murayama (Shobi Univ.) and others studied about a means of giving teaching-materials of mathematics through a computer network.
In the second year:
He and Prof. Tsuchiya (Kanazawa Univ.) have studied a generalization of "Kurt Bryant and Lester F. caudill Jr., Inverse Problem 14 1429-1453 (1998)". They proved that the data in a finite time-interval uniquely determine the shape of the back surfice.
He conjectured that the Gauss-Bonnet formula gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a metric deformation to obtain a positive/negative Gaussian curvature on a disk. He gave a partial answer of the conjecture.
Investigator Kobayashi worked on studying the curious relation of generic maps to their discriminants. The main results in the first year are;
a characterization of the 'folding into four' action in general dimensions by the discriminant of the folding map,
finding of an infinite to one correspondence of maps of a fixed closed 4-manifolds to their discriminants,
providing a family of discrimiants of stable maps of closed manifolds.
Those in the second year are;
a characterization of plane curves which are the critical value set of a generic projection of a closed surface into the plane;
study of planar projections of sphere bundles over spheres.
