    Notes: Conventional upper and lower bounds on the effective conductivity σe of two-phase composite media diverge from one another in the infinite-contrast limits (α=∞ or 0). We have derived a generally nontrivial upper bound on σe for suspensions of identical spheres when the spheres are superconducting, i.e., the upper bound does not necessarily become infinite in the limit α→∞. Similarly, a generally nontrivial lower bound on σe is derived for the aforementioned suspension when the spheres are perfect insulators, i.e., the lower bound does not necessarily vanish in the limit α→0. The bounds are computed for two models: simple cubic arrays and random arrays of spheres.

    Notes: Abstract Supposen points are given in the plane. Their coordinates form a 2n-vectorX. To study the question of finding the shortest Steiner networkS connecting these points, we allowX to vary over a configuration space. In particular, the Steiner ratio conjecture is well suited to this approach and short proofs of the casesn=4, 5 are discussed. The variational approach was used by us to solve other cases of the ratio conjecture (n=6, see [11] and for arbitraryn points lying on a circle). Recently, Du and Hwang have given a beautiful complete solution of the ratio conjecture, also using a configuration space approach but with convexity as the major idea. We have also solved Graham's problem to decide when the Steiner network is the same as the minimal spanning tree, for points on a circle and on any convex polygon, again using the variational method.

    Notes: Abstract Suppose a configurationX consists ofn points lying on a circle of radiusr. If at most one of the edges joining neighboring points has length strictly greater thanr, then the Steiner treeS consists of all these edges with a longest edge removed. In order to showS is, in fact, just the minimal spanning treeT, a variational approach is used to show the Steiner ratio for this configuration is at least one and equals one only ifS andT coincide. The variational approach greatly reduces the number of possible Steiner trees that need to be considered.

    Notes: Abstract SupposeX is a convex configuration with radius of maximum curvaturer and at most one of the edges joining neighboring points has length strictly greater thanr. We use the variational approach to show the Steiner treeS coincides with the minimal spanning tree and consists of all these edges with a longest edge removed. This generalizes Graham's problem for points on a circle, which we had solved. In addition we describe the minimal spanning tree for certain convex configurations.

    Notes: Abstract A Steiner minimal treeS is a network of shortest possible length connecting a set ofn points in the plane. LetT be a shortest tree connecting then points but with vertices only at these points.T is called a minimal spanning tree. The Steiner ratio conjecture is that the length ofS divided by the length ofT is at least √3/2. In this paper we use a variational approach to show that if then points lie on a circle, then the Steiner ratio conjecture holds.

    Notes: Abstract A model is proposed for the formation of singularities in the director field of orientation-selective cells in the visual cortex. The model consists of a two-layer associative neural net. The forward connections converge to a continuum of steady states. The degeneracy is removed by lateral interactions. It is shown that in many cases the director field contains critical points which are identified as the vortex locations.

    Notes: Summary An alternating link ℒ Г is canonically associated with every finite, connected, planar graph Γ. The natural ideal polyhedral decomposition of the complement of ℒ Г is investigated. Natural singular geometric structures exist onS 3−ℒ Г , with respect to which the geometry of the cusp has a shape reflecting the combinatorics of the underlying link projection. For the class of ‘balanced graphs’, this induces a flat structure on peripheral tori modelled on the tessellation of the plane by equilateral triangles. Examples of links containing immersed, closed π1-injective surfaces in their complements are given. These surfaces persist after ‘most’ surgeries on the link, the resulting closed 3-manifolds consequently being determined by their fundamental groups.
