Osserman property is studied for affine torsion-free connections with special attention to the 2-dimensional case. As an application, examples of nonsymmetric and even not locally homogeneous Osserman pseudo-Riemannian metrics are constructed on the cotangent bundle of a manifold equipped with a torsionfree connection by looking at their Riemann extensions. Also, timelike and spacelike Osserman conditions are analyzed for general pseudo-Riemannian manifolds showing that they are equivalent.

On endomorphisms of surface mapping class groups Korkmaz, Mustafa (Elsevier BV, 2001-05-01) In this paper, we prove that every endomorphism of the mapping class group of an orientable surface onto a subgroup of finite index is in fact an automorphism.
A note on the Gauss maps of Cayley-free embeddings into spin(7)-manifolds Ünal, İbrahim (Elsevier BV, 2018-12-01) We show that a closed, orientable 4-manifold M admits a Cayley-free embedding into flat Spin(7)-manifold R-8 if and only if both the Euler characteristic chi(M) and the signature tau(M) of M vanish.
Equivariant cross sections of complex Stiefel manifolds Onder, T (Elsevier BV, 2001-01-16) Let G be a finite group and let M be a unitary representation space of G. A solution to the existence problem of G-equivariant cross sections of the complex Stiefel manifold W-k(M) of unitary k-frames over the unit sphere S(M) is given under mild restrictions on G and on fixed point sets. In the case G is an even ordered group, some sufficient conditions for the existence of G-equivariant real frame fields on spheres with complementary G-equivariant complex structures are also obtained, improving earlier re...
Least-squares differential quadrature time integration scheme in the dual reciprocity boundary element method solution of diffusive-convective problems Bozkaya, Canan (Elsevier BV, 2007-01-01) Least-squares differential quadrature method (DQM) is used for solving the ordinary differential equations in time, obtained from the application of dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) for the spatial partial derivatives in diffusive-convective type problems with variable coefficients. The DRBEM enables us to use the fundamental solution of Laplace equation, which is easy to implement computation ally. The terms except the Laplacian are considered as the nonhomogeneity in the equation, which ar...
Some upper bounds for density of function spaces Önal, Süleyman (Elsevier BV, 2009-05-01) Let C-alpha(X, Y) be the set of all continuous functions from X to Y endowed with the set-open topology where alpha is a hereditarily closed, compact network on X which is closed Under finite unions. We proved that the density of the space C-alpha(X, Y) is at most iw(X) . d(Y) where iw(X) denotes the i-weight of the Tychonoff space X, and d(Y) denotes the density of the space Y when Y is an equiconnected space with equiconnecting function psi, and Y has a base consists of psi-convex Subsets of Y. We also pr...
