D. E. Blair [1] has introduced the notion of K-manifolds as an analogue of the even dimensional Kähler manifolds and of the odd dimensional quasi-Sasakian manifolds. These manifolds have been studied with respect to a positive definite metric. In this paper, we study a more general case of if-manifolds carrying an arbitrary non-degenerate metric, in particular, a metric of Lorentz signature. This theory is then applied within the frame-work of general relativity. Using the Ruse-Synge classification [8, 9] of non-null electromagnetic fields with source, we develop a geometric proof for the existence of either two space like or one space like and one time like Killing vector fields on the space-time manifold.

In this paper the differential equation y″ + (ρ 2 φ 2 (x) –q(x))y = 0 is considered on a finite interval I, say I = [0, 1], where q is a positive sufficiently smooth function and ρ 2 is a real parameter. Also, [0, 1] contains a finite number of zeros of φ 2 , the so called turning points, 0 < x 1 < x 2 < … < x m < 1. First we obtain the infinite product representation of the solution. The product representation, satisfies in the original equation. As a result the associated dual equation is derived and then we proceed with the solution of the inverse problem.

We present some results on Bernstein processes, which are Brownian diffusions that appear in Euclidean Quantum Mechanics. We express the distributions of these processes with the help of those of Bessel processes. We then determine two solutions of the dual equation of the heat equation with potential. These results first appeared in the first author’s PhD thesis (Rouen, 2013).

Although Lotka's equation is commonly used for calculating the intrinsic rate of increase with time of a fish population in demographic analysis, its dual equation has never been derived. In this paper, we establish an explicit relationship between the intrinsic rate of increase with time of a fish population and its instantaneous rate of natural mortality from an age-dependent population dynamics model, derive a generalized Lotka equation for calculating the intrinsic rate of increase with time, and derive its dual equation for calculating the intrinsic rate of decrease with age. The virginal intrinsic rate of increase with time of the gummy shark (Mustelus antarcticus) population was calculated as 0.115957·year-1 and its intrinsic rate of decrease with age as -0.312957·year-1. The virginal intrinsic rate of increase with time of the school shark (Galeorhinus galeus) population was calculated as 0.109480·year-1 and its intrinsic rate of decrease with age as -0.216980·year-1. The generalized Lotka equation and its dual equation thus derived imply that both reproductive schedules of a population of animals and its instantaneous rate of total mortality determine its intrinsic rate of increase with time, whereas its reproductive schedules alone determine its intrinsic rate of decrease with age.

By using the gauge potential decomposition, we discuss the self-dual equation and its solution in Jackiw–Pi model. We obtain a new concrete self-dual equation and find relationship between Chern–Simons vortices solution and topological number which is determined by Hopf indices and Brouwer degrees of Ψ-mapping. To show the meaning of topological number we give several figures with different topological numbers. In order to investigate the topological properties of many vortices, we use five parameters (two positions, one scale, one phase per vortex and one charge of each vortex) to describe each vortex in many vortices solutions in Jackiw–Pi model. For many vortices, we give three figures with different topological numbers to show the effect of the charge on the many vortices solutions. We also study the quantization of flux of those vortices related to the topological numbers in this case.
