Grain BoundaryNaoyuki KoikePh.D.Future Development Goals The geometry is divided broadly into three fields of the differential geometry, the topology and the algebraic geometry. In the differential geometry, it was originally aimed to research a differential manifold M equipped with a geometric structure g (where a differentiable manifold means the space where the continuity and the differentiability of maps between the spaces can be defined) and investigate the properties of figures in the space (M,g) which are invariant under transformations of M preserving g invariantly. Note that the whole of such transformations of M preserving g invariantly is a Lie group (that is, a differentiable manifold equipped with a suitable group structure). Later, in the differential geometry, it also has been aimed to research the theory of the connections of principal bundles and their associated vector bundles over the space (M,g) in order to research the gauge theory (in the theoretical physics) from the viewpoint of the differential geometry. For example, the theory unifying the gravitational field and the electromagnetic field is researched by using the principal bundle having the unitary group U(1) of degree one as the structure group over a 4-dimensional Lorentzian manifold (M,g). Thus the differential geometry is closely connected to the theory of Lie group actions and the gauge theory, and hence can be applied to the researches of the quantum mechanics and the condensed materials physics. In the geometric analysis (which is researched by using both of the differential geometry and the analysis), the mean curvature flow and the harmonic flow etc. are researched, where the mean curvature flow means the gradient flow of the (-1)-multiple of the volume functional, and the harmonic flow means the gradient flow the (-1)-multiple of the (usual) Energy functional. We aim to apply these researches to those of the grain boundary and the cluster. Also, we aim to apply these researches to that of the shape of double helices of polydeoxyribonucleotides constructing DNA and so on in the molecular biology. Furthermore, we aim to apply the research of the strength of the grain boundary to that of the composite materials mechanics. The topology aims to research a topological space X (where can be defined the continuity of maps between the spaces) and investigate the properties of the figures in X which are invariant under continuous transformations of X. Also, the various algebraic topological invariants (for example, the homotopy group and the homology group) are used in this research. The knot theory is very important in the research field of the topology and the research of DNA・RNA. The knot means a circle continuously embedded into the 3-dimensional sphere (or the 3-dimensional Euclidean space). Here we note that knots in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space are regarded as knots in the 3-dimensional sphere because the 3-dimensional Euclidean space is identified with an open portion of the 3-dimensional sphere. Main research theme of the knot theory is to investigate whether two knots in the 3-dimensional sphere are mapped to each other by a homeomorphism (a continuous one-to-one map such that its inverse also is continuous) of the 3-dimensional sphere. The knot theory is important in the research of the topological global structure (the structure of double helices) of polydeoxyribonucleotides constructing circular DNA (in the molecular biology). Also, knots and the mapping class group are sometimes researched by using the gauge theory, which is one of so-called the topological field theory. In the algebraic geometry, are researched the structure of the common zero-point set of some polynomials over the affine space or the projective space. This research is used to investigate the moduli space of the space of various kind of connections of the principal bundle and hence is applied it to various researches of the gauge theory.FundamentalsTokyo University of ScienceGeometryandNaturalScienceEstablished: April, 2025The members of this research division aim to construct the comprehensive geometric theor y of the natural science (in wide sense) of the quantum mechanics, the condense matter theory, molecular biology, the grain boundary structure theory and composite materials mechanics, and feedback to each of the above fields of the natural science.ObjectivesFor the above objectives, we promote to make research alliance with other divisions in our research institute and institutes other universities. koike@rs.tus.ac.jp As above, each research field of the geometry are connected closely to those of the quantum mechanics, the condensed matter physics, molecular biology and grain boundary-composite materials mechanics.
