    A class of residually finite groups isomorphic to fundamental groups of VH complexes

    No full text
    In a preprint, Ian Leary inquires whether two hyperbolic finitely presented groups are residually finite. We answer in the affirmative by showing that these groups belong to a class of groups, which we call the polygonal VH or PVH groups. To prove that a group is PVH we introduce a systematic tiling method for the standard 2-complex of the group, and deduce from the work of Daniel Wise that hyperbolic PVH groups are residually finite.Dans un prépublication, Ian Leary se demande si deux groupes finitement hyperboliques et de présentation finie sont résiduellement finis. Nous donnons une réponse positive en montrant que ces groupes appartiennent à une classe de groupes que nous appelons les groupes VH ou groupes PVH. Pour démontrer qu'un groupe est PVH, nous introduisons une méthode systématique pour couvrir d'un pavage le 2-complexe standard du groupe, et déduisons des travaux de Daniel Wise les groupes PVH hyperboliques sont résiduellement finis

    Counting cycles in labeled graphs

    The main result of this thesis is the proof of the "w-cycle conjecture". This was done in collaboration with Daniel Wise, and our paper "Counting cycles in labeled graphs: The nonpositive immersion property for one-relator groups", which has been submitted to International Mathematics Research Notices is included here (Chapter 5), verbatim. In addition, I provide some context and background to the theorem.La résultat primaire de cette thèse est un démonstration du "w-cycle conjecture". Cela était fait en collaboration avec Daniel Wise et notre article "Counting cycles in labeled graphs: The nonpositive immersion property for one-relator groups" - présentement soumis au International Mathematics Research Notices - est inclus ici (Chapitre 5) textuellement. En plus, je situe le résultat historiquement et dans le contexte de la théorie générale

    The Book of Daniel and manticism: a critical assessment of the view that the Book of Daniel derives from a mantic tradition

    No full text
    This dissertation examines the consensus view that is based on Hans-Peter Müller's 1969 and 1972 articles: Daniel was a mantic wise man in the Mesopotamian ASA court, and this was the self-understanding or aspiration of the maskilim of Dan 11:33, 35, 12:3, 10, who wrote the book. Chapter 1 reviews the arguments that make the mantic connection and Chapter 2 concludes that a direct connection with the Danes of Aqht, Ezek, and Jub, and with the angel in 1 Enoch should be rejected. There is evidence that the tradition of a priest in Ezra 8: 2 and Neh 10: 7, and found also in the superscription to the Old Greek of Bel, and 4 Ezra 12:10-11, and suggested the name. Chapter 3 concludes that the portrayal of the court diviners in Dan 1-6 is wholly negative and includes both the diviners, and the essence of the professions, i. e., the ability to interpret a divine revelation. The critique is conveyed through the story line, explicit criticisms, irony, and humour. Chapter 4 concludes that Daniel, the interpreter of dreams and the writing on the wall, is distinguished from every other character and role. In the final form of Dan, Daniel as the divinely assisted each time he interprets, just as when he receives help from an interpreting angel in Dan 7-12. Chapter 5 demonstrates that the portrayal of Daniel as the divinely assisted interpreter makes sense of the reinterpretation of old prophecies against the Assyrians as prophecies against Antiochus IV Epiphanes. Hab 2:2-4 and Isa 52-53 were also understood as predictions about the maskilim themselves. Comparisons are then made with the Teacher of Righteousness, the writers of the Hodayot, and with three Essenes portrayed by Josephus. These too were portrayed as divinely assisted interpreters

    Report on Meteorological Research March 1, 1935 (m-1)

    No full text
    The object of the report was to elucidate in detail the various features of the research program in meteorology being carried on at the Daniel Guggenheim Airship Institute in Akron, Ohio. Mr. L. J. Fangman, of the U.S. Weather Bureau, was collaborating with the author in carrying out work such as a study of autographic records of the various meteorological elements during frontal passages with a view to the possible prediction of the intensity of the accompanying disturbance as it may affect the operation of aircraft and a study of atmospheric gustiness with a view to finding the dependence between frequency end amplitude of velocity fluctuations and the vertical temperature and velocity gradients
