In this article, we define Lorentzian cross product in a three-dimensional almost contact Lorentzian manifold. Using a Lorentzian cross product, we prove that the ratio of κ and τ − 1 is constant along a Frenet slant curve in a Sasakian Lorentzian three-manifold. Moreover, we prove that γ is a slant curve if and only if M is Sasakian for a contact magnetic curve γ in contact Lorentzian three-manifold M. As an example, we find contact magnetic curves in Lorentzian Heisenberg three-space.

In this paper, we first find the properties of the generalized Tanaka–Webster connection in a contact Lorentzian manifold. Next, we find that a necessary and sufficient condition for the ∇ ^ -geodesic is a magnetic curve (for ∇) along slant curves. Finally, we prove that when c ≤ 0 , there does not exist a non-geodesic slant Frenet curve satisfying the ∇ ^ -Jacobi equations for the ∇ ^ -geodesic vector fields in M. Thus, we construct the explicit parametric equations of pseudo-Hermitian pseudo-helices in Lorentzian space forms M 1 3 ( H ^ ) for H ^ = 2 c > 0 .

AbstractSlant curves are introduced in three-dimensional warped products with Euclidean factors. These curves are characterised by the scalar product between the normal at the curve and the vertical vector field, and an important feature is that the case of constant Frenet curvatures implies a proper mean curvature vector field. A Lancret invariant is obtained and the Legendre curves are analysed as a particular case. An example of a slant curve is given for the exponential warping function; our example illustrates a proper (that is, not reducible to the two-dimensional) case of the Lancret theorem of three-dimensional hyperbolic geometry. We point out an eventuality relationship with the geometry of relativistic models.

Abstract We construct a generalisation of the three-dimensional Poincaré algebra that also includes a colour symmetry factor. This algebra can be used to define coloured Poincaré gravity in three space-time dimensions as well as to study generalisations of massive and massless free particle models. We present various such generalised particle models that differ in which orbits of the coloured Poincaré symmetry are described. Our approach can be seen as a stepping stone towards the description of particles interacting with a non-abelian background field or as a starting point for a worldline formulation of an associated quantum field theory.

Abstract In the present work we find novel Newtonian gravity models in three space-time dimensions. We first present a Maxwellian version of the extended Newtonian gravity, which is obtained as the non-relativistic limit of a particular U(1)-enlargement of an enhanced Maxwell Chern-Simons gravity. We show that the extended Newtonian gravity appears as a particular sub-case. Then, the introduction of a cosmological constant to the Maxwellian extended Newtonian theory is also explored. To this purpose, we consider the non-relativistic limit of an enlarged symmetry. An alternative method to obtain our results is presented by applying the semigroup expansion method to the enhanced Nappi-Witten algebra. The advantages of considering the Lie algebra expansion procedure is also discussed.

Two ellipsoidal ultimate boundary regions of a special three-dimensional (3D) chaotic system are proposed. To this chaotic system, the linear coefficient of theith state variable in theith state equation has the same sign; it also has two one-order terms and one quadratic cross-product term in each equation. A numerical solution and an analytical expression of the ultimate bounds are received. To get the analytical expression of the ultimate boundary region, a new result of one maximum optimization question is proved. The corresponding ultimate boundary regions are demonstrated through numerical simulations. Utilizing the bounds obtained, a linear controller is proposed to achieve the complete chaos synchronization. Numerical simulation exhibits the feasibility of the designed scheme.

In this paper, the existence of globally exponentially attractive sets and positive invariant sets of three-dimensional autonomous systems with only cross-product nonlinearities are considered. Sufficient conditions, which guarantee the existence of globally exponentially attractive set and positive invariant set of the system, are obtained. The results of this paper comprise some existing relative results as in special cases. The approach presented in this paper can be applied to study other chaotic systems.


A numerical scheme for shock propagation in three space dimensions is presented. The motion of the leading shock surface is calculated by using Whitham’s theory of geometrical shock dynamics. The numerical scheme is used to examine the focusing of initially curved shock surfaces and the diffraction of shocks in a pipe with a 90° bend. Numerical and experimental results for the corresponding two-dimensional or axi-symmetrical cases are used to compare with the new and more complicated three-dimensional results.

A fast numerical scheme based on the model of Barkley [Physica 49D (1991), 61] is extended to three space dimensions (3D). The original time-stepping scheme is improved to provide greater accuracy and a 19-point approximation for the Laplacian operator in 3D is shown to have significant advantages over the commonly used 7-point formula. Simulations are coupled to a state-of-the-art surface rendering algorithm such that the combined code allows real-time interactive simulations of 3D waves on a desktop workstation. Results are presented from simulations over a range of spatio-temporal resolutions, from coarse cellular-automaton type simulations to fully resolved simulations of the underlying partial differential equations.

Symmetry conditions are found that assure isotropy of the fourth rank tensor of elastic moduli. Crystallography provides the answer to this problem in the two-dimensional context, namely one axis of three-fold symmetry assures the isotropy of properties in the plane normal to the axis. The present work provides the answer in the three-dimensional problem: 6 axes of five-fold symmetry are sufficient to give isotropy of the elastic moduli. An important restriction must accompany the present result. The derivation is given in the special form appropriate to low density materials which have a microstructure that transmits load according to the axial deformation of a space network of material distributed into micro-struts. The corresponding fiber composite idealization is that of a fiber dominated system, it therefore follows that if the fibers take the 6 specific orientations in three-space then isotropy is obtained.

The reader, even if familiar with vectors, will find it useful to work through this chapter because it introduces notation that will be used throughout this book. We will take vectors to be entities that possess magnitude, orientation, and sense in three-dimensional space. Graphically, we will represent them as arrows with the sense from tail to head, magnitude proportional to the length, and orientation indicated by the angles they form with a given set of reference directions. Two different kinds of symbol will be used to designate vectors algebraically, boldface letters (and the boldface number zero for a vector of zero magnitude), and subscripted letters to be introduced later. The first problems deal with simple vector geometry and its algebraic representation. Multiplying a vector by a scalar affects only its magnitude (length) without changing its direction. Problem 1. State the necessary and sufficient conditions for the three vectors A, B, and C to form a triangle. (Problems 1–9, 12–14, 19–23, and 25 from Sokolnikoff & Redheffer, 1958.) Problem 2. Given the sum S = A + B and the difference D = A – B, find A and B in terms of S and D (a) graphically and (b) algebraically. Problem 3. (a) State the unit vector a with the same direction as a nonzero vector A. (b) Let two nonzero vectors A and B issue from the same point, forming an angle between them; using the result of (a), find a vector that bisects this angle. Problem 4. Using vector methods, show that a line from one of the vertices of a parallelogram to the midpoint of one of the nonadjacent sides trisects one of the diagonals. Two vectors are said to form with each other two distinct products: a scalar, the dot product, and a vector, the cross product.
