Discontinuous Groups of Isometries in the Hyperbolic Plane
This publication through Jakob Nielsen (1890-1959) and Werner Fenchel (1905-1988) has had
a lengthy and intricate heritage. In 1938-39, Nielsen gave a sequence of lectures on
discontinuous teams of motions within the non-euclidean aircraft, and this led him - in the course of
World battle II - to write down the 1st chapters of the publication (in German). whilst Fenchel,
who needed to break out from Denmark to Sweden as a result of German career,
returned in 1945, Nielsen initiated a collaboration with him on what grew to become recognized
as the Fenchel-Nielsen manuscript. at the moment they have been either on the Technical
University in Copenhagen. the 1st draft of the Fenchel-Nielsen manuscript (now
in English) was once complete in 1948 and it used to be deliberate to be released within the Princeton
Mathematical sequence. in spite of the fact that, as a result of swift improvement of the topic, they felt
that sizeable adjustments needed to be made ahead of book.
When Nielsen moved to Copenhagen collage in 1951 (where he stayed until eventually
1955), he was once a lot concerned with the overseas association UNESCO, and the
further writing of the manuscript was once left to Fenchel. The files of Fenchel now
deposited and catalogued on the division of arithmetic at Copenhagen Univer-
sity comprise unique manuscripts: a partial manuscript (manuscript zero) in Ger-
man containing Chapters I-II (
I -15), and a whole manuscript (manuscript I) in
English containing Chapters I-V (
1-27). The files additionally include a part of a corre-
spondence (first in German yet later in Danish) among Nielsen and Fenchel, the place
Nielsen makes exact reviews to Fenchel's writings of Chapters III-V. Fenchel,
who succeeded N. E. Nf/Jrlund at Copenhagen collage in 1956 (and stayed there
until 1974), used to be a great deal concerned with an intensive revision of the curriculum in al-
gebra and geometry, and centred his examine within the thought of convexity, heading
the foreign Colloquium on Convexity in Copenhagen 1965. for nearly twenty years
he additionally placed a lot attempt into his task as editor of the newly begun magazine Mathematica
Scandinavica. a lot to his dissatisfaction, this job left him little time to complete the
Fenchel-Nielsen venture the way in which he desired to.
After his retirement from the collage, Fenchel - assisted via Christian Sieben-
eicher from Bielefeld and Mrs. Obershelp who typed the manuscript - chanced on time to
finish the publication user-friendly Geometry in Hyperbolic area, which used to be released by way of
Walter de Gruyter in 1989 presently after his loss of life. at the same time, and with a similar
collaborators, he supervised a typewritten model of the manuscript (manuscript 2) on
discontinuous teams, elimination a number of the imprecise issues that have been within the unique
manuscript. Fenchel instructed me that he reflected elimination elements of the introductory
Chapter I within the manuscript, in view that this might be lined through the publication pointed out above;
but to make the Fenchel-Nielsen ebook self-contained he finally selected to not do
so. He did choose to miss
27, entitled Thefundamental crew.
As editor, i began in 1990, with the consent of the criminal heirs of Fenchel and
Nielsen, to supply a TEX-version from the newly typewritten model (manuscript 2).
I am thankful to Dita Andersen and Lise Fuldby-Olsen in my division for hav-
ing performed an excellent task of typing this manuscript in AMS- TEX. i've got additionally had
much aid from my colleague J0rn B0rling Olsson (himself a pupil of Kate Fenchel
at Aarhus collage) with the evidence interpreting of the TEX-manuscript (manuscript three)
against manuscript 2 in addition to with a normal dialogue of the variation to the fashion
of TEX. In so much respects we determined to stick to Fenchel's intentions. even though, turning
the typewritten variation of the manuscript into TEX helped us to make sure that the notation,
and the spelling of definite key-words, will be uniform during the booklet. additionally,
we have indicated the start and finish of an evidence within the ordinary sort of TEX.
With this TEX -manuscript I approached Walter de Gruyter in Berlin in 1992, and
to my nice reduction and delight they agreed to put up the manuscript of their sequence
Studies in arithmetic. i'm such a lot thankful for this confident and speedy response. One
particular challenge with the book became out to be the copy of the various
figures that are a vital part of the presentation. Christian Siebeneicher had at
first agreed to convey those in ultimate digital shape, yet by way of 1997 it grew to become transparent that he
would now not have the capacity to locate the time to take action. notwithstanding, the writer provided an answer
whereby I should still convey distinct drawings of the figures (Fenchel didn't go away such
for Chapters IV and V), after which they'd set up the construction of the figures in
electronic shape. i'm very thankful to Marcin Adamski, Warsaw, Poland, for his advantageous
collaboration about the genuine construction of the figures.
My colleague Bent Fuglede, who has personaHy recognized either authors, has kindly
written a quick biography of the 2 of them and their mathematical achievements,
and which additionally areas the Fenchel-Nielsen manuscript in its right point of view. In
this connection i need to thank The Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and
Letters for permitting us to incorporate during this e-book reproductions of images of the 2
authors that are within the ownership of the Academy.
Since the manuscript makes use of a few detailed symbols, an inventory of notation with brief
explanations and connection with the particular definition within the booklet has been integrated. additionally,
a entire index has been additional. In either circumstances, all references are to sections,
not pages.
We thought of including a whole record of references, yet determined opposed to it because of
the overwhelming variety of learn papers during this region. as a substitute, a miles shorter
list of monographs and different complete debts proper to the topic has been
collected.
My ultimate and such a lot honest thank you visit Dr. Manfred Karbe from Walter de Gruyter
for his commitment and perseverance in bringing this ebook into lifestyles.
Statistics on Special Manifolds
This ebook is worried with statistical research at the distinct manifolds, the Stiefel manifold and the Grassmann manifold, taken care of as statistical pattern areas which includes matrices. the previous is represented through the set of m x ok matrices whose columns are jointly orthogonal k-variate vectors of unit size, and the latter by means of the set of m x m orthogonal projection matrices idempotent of rank ok.
