To every nearly convex optimization problem, that is a minimization problem with a nearly convex objective function and a nearly convex constraint set, we associate a uniquely defined convex optimization problem with a lower semicontinuous objective function and a closed constraint set. Interesting relationships between the original nearly convex problem and the associated convex problem are established. Optimality conditions in the form of Fermat's rules are obtained for both problems. We then get a Lagrange multiplier rule for a nearly convex optimization problem under a geometrical constraint and functional constraints from the Kuhn-Tucker conditions for the associated convex optimization problem. The obtained results are illustrated by concrete examples.
We investigate nearly Gorenstein property for a normal graded ring $R = \bigoplus_{n\ge 0}R_n$ finitely generated over a field. For that purpose, we investigate ${K_R}^{-1}$, the inverse of $K_R$ (the canonical module of $R$) and introduce a new invariant $b(R)$ of $R$. We investigate nearly Gorenstein property of $R$ using $a(R)$ and $b(R)$ and $m(R)$, the initial degree of $R$. If $b(R)<0$, (and if $R$ is $\mathbb Q$-Gorenstein), then we believe that $R$ is log-terminal -- this is proved if $\dim R=2$ or $R$ is F-pure (or $F$-pure type). Then we determine the condition for a $2$-dimensional cone singularity over a smooth curve of genus $g\le 3$ to be nearly Gorenstein. We observe that ``almost Gorenstein" property and nearly Gorenstein property are drastically different for such rings.
The recent interest of geometers in the $f$-structures of K. Yano is motivated by the study of the dynamics of contact foliations, as well as their applications in theoretical physics. Weak metric $f$-structures on a smooth manifold, recently introduced by the author and R. Wolak, open a new perspective on the theory of classical structures. In the paper, we define structures of this kind, called weak nearly ${\cal S}$- and weak nearly ${\cal C}$- structures, study their geometry, e.g. their relations to Killing vector fields, and characterize weak nearly ${\cal S}$- and weak nearly ${\cal S}$- submanifolds in a weak nearly Kähler manifold.
In the context of six-dimensional homogeneous nearly Kähler manifolds, we prove that $\mathbb S^6$ is the only ambient space admitting constant sectional curvature hypersurfaces. In order to do so, we prove first that in $\mathbb S^3\times\mathbb S^3$, $\mathbb C P^3$ and $F(\mathbb C^3)$, any hypersurface with constant sectional curvature is $η$-quasi umbilical, where $η$ is the dual one-form of the Reeb vector field. Then, we use the non-existence of such hypersurfaces in these spaces. Additionally, we characterize hypersurfaces of six-dimensional nearly Kähler manifolds which are Sasakian, nearly Sasakian, co-Kähler and nearly cosymplectic.
In this article we call a sequence $(a_n)_n$ of elements of a metric space nearly computably Cauchy if for every strictly increasing computable function $r:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$ the sequence $(d(a_{r(n+1)},a_{r(n)}))_n$ converges computably to $0$. We show that there exists a strictly increasing sequence of rational numbers that is nearly computably Cauchy and unbounded. Then we call a real number $α$ nearly computable if there exists a computable sequence $(a_n)_n$ of rational numbers that converges to $α$ and is nearly computably Cauchy. It is clear that every computable real number is nearly computable, and it follows from a result by Downey and LaForte (2002) that there exists a nearly computable and left-computable number that is not computable. We observe that the set of nearly computable real numbers is a real closed field and closed under computable real functions with open domain, but not closed under arbitrary computable real functions. Among other things we strengthen results by Hoyrup (2017) and by Stephan and Wu (2005) by showing that any nearly computable real number that is not computable is weakly $1$-generic (and, therefore, hyperimmune and not Martin-Löf random
We prove that any totally geodesic hypersurface $N^5$ of a 6-dimensional nearly Kähler manifold $M^6$ is a Sasaki-Einstein manifold, and so it has a hypo structure in the sense of \cite{ConS}. We show that any Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifold defines a nearly Kähler structure on the sin-cone $N^5\times\mathbb R$, and a compact nearly Kähler structure with conical singularities on $N^5\times [0,π]$ when $N^5$ is compact thus providing a link between Calabi-Yau structure on the cone $N^5\times [0,π]$ and the nearly Kähler structure on the sin-cone $N^5\times [0,π]$. We define the notion of {\it nearly hypo} structure that leads to a general construction of nearly Kähler structure on $N^5\times\mathbb R$. We determine {\it double hypo} structure as the intersection of hypo and nearly hypo structures and classify double hypo structures on 5-dimensional Lie algebras with non-zero first Betti number. An extension of the concept of nearly Kähler structure is introduced, which we refer to as {\it nearly half flat} SU(3)-structure, that leads us to generalize the construction of nearly parallel $G_2$-structures on $M^6\times\mathbb R$ given in \cite{BM}. For $N^5=S^5\subset S^6$ and for $N^5=S^2
The class of $k$-nearly finitary matroids for some natural number $k$ is a subclass of the class of nearly finitary matroids. A natural question is whether this inclusion is proper. We answer this question affirmatively by constructing a nearly finitary matroid that is not $k$-nearly finitary for any $k \in \mathbb{N}$.
Nearly Frobenius structures and 2-dimensional Almost TQFTs were introduced and shown to be in categorical equivalence in arXiv:1907.05470 in the attempt to extend the Atiyah-Segal's definition to the category of infinite dimensional vector spaces. In this paper, we investigate nearly Frobenius structures and we give a classification result for Almost TQFTs in dimension 2. In particular, the TQFTs functorial axioms become equivalent to the Edge Contraction/Construction axioms of colored ribbon graphs recently introduced by the authors.
We carry on a systematic study of nearly Sasakian manifolds. We prove that any nearly Sasakian manifold admits two types of integrable distributions with totally geodesic leaves which are, respectively, Sasakian or $5$-dimensional nearly Sasakian manifolds. As a consequence, any nearly Sasakian manifold is a contact manifold. Focusing on the $5$-dimensional case, we prove that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between nearly Sasakian structures and a special class of nearly hypo $SU(2)$-structures. By deforming such a $SU(2)$-structure one obtains in fact a Sasaki-Einstein structure. Further we prove that both nearly Sasakian and Sasaki-Einstein $5$-manifolds are endowed with supplementary nearly cosymplectic structures. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between nearly cosymplectic structures and a special class of hypo $SU(2)$-structures which is again strictly related to Sasaki-Einstein structures. Furthermore, we study the orientable hypersurfaces of a nearly Kähler 6-manifold and, in the last part of the paper, we define canonical connections for nearly Sasakian manifolds, which play a role similar to the Gray connection in the context of nearly Kähler ge
In this thesis, we study nearly finitary matroids by introducing new definitions and prove various properties of nearly finitary matroids. In 2010, an axiom system for infinite matroids was proposed by Bruhn et al. We use this axiom system for this thesis. In Chapter 2, we summarize our main results after reviewing historical background and motivation. In Chapter 3, we define a notion of spectrum for matroids. Moreover, we show that the spectrum of a nearly finitary matroid can be larger than any fixed finite size. We also give an example of a matroid with infinitely large spectrum that is not nearly finitary. Assuming the existence of a single matroid that is nearly finitary but not $k$-nearly finitary, we construct classes of matroids that are nearly finitary but not $k$-nearly finitary. We also show that finite rank matroids are unionable. In Chapter 4, we will introduce a notion of near finitarization. We also give an example of a nearly finitary independence system that is not $k$-nearly finitary. This independence system is not a matroid. In Chapter 5, we will talk about Psi-matroids and introduce a possible generalization. Moreover, we study these new matroids to search for
Nearly perfect packing codes are those codes that meet the Johnson upper bound on the size of error-correcting codes. This bound is an improvement to the sphere-packing bound. A related bound for covering codes is known as the van Wee bound. Codes that meet this bound will be called nearly perfect covering codes. In this paper, such codes with covering radius one will be considered. It will be proved that these codes can be partitioned into three families depending on the smallest distance between neighboring codewords. Some of the codes contained in these families will be completely characterized. Other properties of these codes will be considered too. Construction for codes for each such family will be presented, the weight distribution and the distance distribution of codes from these families are characterized. Finally, extended nearly perfect covering code will be considered and unexpected equivalence classes of codes of the three types will be defined based on the extended codes.
In our previous paper [9], we have introduced topological nearly entropy, Ent_N (f) by restricting X into a class of nearly compact spaces. In the present paper, some additional properties of this notion are studied. Furthermore, we introduce another new notion of topological nearly entropy of f denoted by Ent_n (f) when the whole space X itself is nearly compact. We show the relationship between these two notions for the class of nearly compact subspaces. We also propose new space, namely, R-space in studying the topological nearly entropy on nearly compact and Hausdorff space. As a consequence, the topological nearly entropy of f and it restriction f|K coincides. Finally, some fundamental properties of topological nearly entropy for product space are obtained.
In this paper, we study nearly Gorensteinness of Ehrhart rings arising from lattice polytopes. We give necessary conditions and sufficient conditions on lattice polytopes for their Ehrhart rings to be nearly Gorenstein. Using this, we give an efficient method for constructing nearly Gorenstein polytopes. Moreover, we determine the structure of nearly Gorenstein (0, 1)-polytopes and characterise nearly Gorensteinness of edge polytopes and graphic matroids.
Weak almost contact manifolds, i.e., the linear complex structure on the contact distribution is approximated by a nonsingular skew-symmetric tensor, defined by the author and R. Wolak (2022), allowed a new look at the theory of contact manifolds. This article studies the curvature and topology of new structures of this type, called the weak nearly cosymplectic structure and weak nearly Kähler structure. We find conditions under which weak nearly cosymplectic manifolds become Riemannian products and characterize 5-dimensional weak nearly cosymplectic manifolds. Our theorems generalize results by H. Endo (2005) and A. Nicola-G. Dileo-I. Yudin (2018) to the context of weak almost contact geometry.
We investigate generalisations of Hitchin's functionals, whose critical points correspond to nearly Kähler and nearly parallel $G_2$-structures. Our focus is on the gradient flow of these functionals and the spectral decomposition of their Hessians with respect to natural indefinite inner products. We introduce a Morse-like index for these functionals, termed the Hitchin index. We prove this index provides a lower bound for the Einstein co-index and explore its relationship with the deformation theory of $G_2$- and $\operatorname{Spin}(7)$-conifolds.
In the first part we study nearly Frobenius algebras. The concept of nearly Frobenius algebras is a generalization of the concept of Frobenius algebras. Nearly Frobenius algebras do not have traces, nor they are self-dual. We prove that the known constructions: direct sums, tensor, quotient of nearly Frobenius algebras admit natural nearly Frobenius structures. In the second part we study algebras associated to some families of quivers and the nearly Frobenius structures that they admit. As a main theorem, we prove that an indecomposable algebra associated to a bound quiver $(Q,I)$ with no monomial relations admits a non trivial nearly Frobenius structure if and only if the quiver is $\overrightarrow{\mb{A}_n}$ and I=0. We also present an algorithm that determines the number of independent nearly Frobenius structures for Gentle algebras without oriented cycles.
This is an expository paper, which provides a first approach to nearly Kenmotsu manifolds. The purpose of this paper is to focus on nearly Kenmotsu manifolds and get some new results from it. We prove that for a nearly Kenmotsu manifold is locally isometric to warped product of real line and nearly Kähler manifold. Finally, we prove that there exist no nearly Kenmotsu hypersurface of nearly Kähler manifold. It is shown that a normal nearly Kenmotsu manifold is Kenmotsu manifold.
A natural approach to the construction of nearly G2 manifolds lies in resolving nearly G2 spaces with isolated conical singularities by gluing in asymptotically conical G2 manifolds modelled on the same cone. If such a resolution exits, one expects there to be a family of nearly G2 manifolds, whose endpoint is the original nearly G2 conifold and whose parameter is the scale of the glued in asymptotically conical G2 manifold. We show that in many cases such a curve does not exist. The non-existence result is based on a topological result for asymptotically conical G2 manifolds: if the rate of the metric is below -7/2, then the G2 4-form is exact if and only if the manifold is isometric to the 7-dimensional Euclidean space. A similar construction is possible in the nearly Kähler case, which we investigate in the same manner with similar results. In this case, the non-existence results is based on a topological result for asymptotically conical Calabi--Yau 6-manifolds: if the rate of the metric is below -3, then the square of the Kähler form and the complex volume form can only be simultaneously exact, if the manifold is isometric to the 6-dimensional Euclidean space.
In order to considering the integrality of nearly holomorphic (vector-valued) Siegel modular forms, we introduce nearly Siegel modular forms and study their integrality. We show that the integrality of nearly Siegel modular forms in terms of their Fourier expansion implies the integrality of their CM values. Furthermore, we show that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between integral nearly Siegel modular forms and integral nearly holomorphic ones. By these results, the integrality of CM values holds for nearly holomorphic Siegel modular forms and for nearly overconvergent p-adic Siegel modular forms.
A notion of a nearly toric variety is introduced. The examples of nearly toric varieties in the context of Schubert varieties are discussed. In particular, combinatorial characterizations of the smooth and singular nearly toric Schubert varieties are found. Furthermore, the counts and generating series are determined. Additionally, a connection between Dyck paths and a certain family of nearly toric Schubert varieties is established.
