We show that the standard graded cover of the well-known category $\mathcal{O}$ of Bernstein–Gelfand–Gelfand can be characterized by its compatibility with the action of the center of the enveloping algebra.

In this paper, we provide rigorous justification of the hydrostatic approximation and the derivation of primitive equations as the small aspect ratio limit of the incompressible three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in the anisotropic horizontal viscosity regime. Setting $\varepsilon >0$ to be the small aspect ratio of the vertical to the horizontal scales of the domain, we investigate the case when the horizontal and vertical viscosities in the incompressible three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are of orders $O(1)$ and $O(\varepsilon^\alpha)$, respectively, with $\alpha>2$, for which the limiting system is the primitive equations with only horizontal viscosity as $\varepsilon$ tends to zero. In particular we show that for ``well prepared" initial data the solutions of the scaled incompressible three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations converge strongly, in any finite interval of time, to the corresponding solutions of the anisotropic primitive equations with only horizontal viscosities, as $\varepsilon$ tends to zero, and that the convergence rate is of order $O\left(\varepsilon^\frac\beta2\right)$, where $\beta=\min\{\alpha-2,2\}$. Note that this result is different from the case $\alpha=2$ studied in [Li, J.; Titi, E.S.: \emph{The primitive equations as the small aspect ratio limit of the Navier-Stokes equations: Rigorous justification of the hydrostatic approximation}, J. Math. Pures Appl., \textbf{124} \rm(2019), 30--58], where the limiting system is the primitive equations with full viscosities and the convergence is globally in time and its rate of order $O\left(\varepsilon\right)$.

We show that a compact, connected set which has uniform oscillations at all points and at all scales has dimension strictly larger than 1. We also show that limit sets of certain Kleinian groups have this property. More generally, we show that if$G$is a non-elementary, analytically finite Kleinian group, and its limit set Λ($G$) is connected, then Λ($G$) is either a circle or has dimension strictly bigger than 1.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a no-cure disease that has been frustrating the scientists for many years. Analyzing the disease has become an important but challenging research topic. The shape analysis of the sub-cortical structure of AD patients has been commonly used to understand this disease. In this paper, we assess the feasibility of using shape information on the hippocampal (HP) surfaces to detect some sub-structural changes in AD patients. We propose a quasi-conformal statistical shape analysis model, which allows us to study local regional geometric changes in the HPs amongst normal control (NC) and AD groups. A shape index defined by the quasi-conformality and surface curvatures is used to characterize region-specific shape variations of the HP surfaces. Feature vectors can be extracted for each HPs, with which a classification model can be built using machine learning methods to classify HPs into NC and AD subjects. Experiments have been carried out on 99 normal controls and 41 patients with AD. Results demonstrate that the proposed quasi-conformal based model is effective for classifying HPs into NC and AD groups with high classification accuracy (with highest overall classification accuracy reaching 87.86% in a leave-one-out experiment using the whole dataset).
