The following statement is known as the generalized Hilbert-Smith conjecture : If G is a compact group and acts effectively on a manifold, then G is a Lie group. In this paper we prove that the generalized Hilbert-Smith conjecture is equivalent to the following : A known, but has never been published before.

M. Kontsevich posed a problem on mapping class groups of 3-manifold that is if M is a compact 3-manifold with nonempty boundary, then BDiff (M rel $\partial$ M) has the homotopy type of a finite complex. Here, Diff (M rel $\partial$ M) is the group of diffeomorphisms of M which restrict to the identity on $\partial$ M, and BDiff (M rel $\partial$ M) is its classifying space. In this paper we resolve the problem affirmatively in the case when M is a Haken 3-manifold.

We study some dynamical properties in the context of bitransformation groups, and show that if (H,X,T) is a bitransformation group such that (H,X) is almost periodic and (X/H,T) is pointwise almost periodic $T_2$ and $x{\in}X$, then $E_x=\{q{\in}E(H,X){\mid}qx{\in}{\overline{xT}\}$ is a compact $T_2$ topological group and $E_{qx}=E_x(q{\in}E(H,X))$ when H is abelian, where E(H,X) is the enveloping semigroup of the transformation group (H,X).

The Gottlieb group of a compact connected ANR X, G(X), consists of all $\alpha \in \prod_{1}(X)$ such that there is an associated map $A : S^1 \times X \to X$ and a homotopy commutative diagram $$ S^1 \times X \longrightarrow^A X $$ $$incl \uparrow \nearrow \alpha \vee id $$ $$ S^1 \vee X $$.

Let G be a semialgebraic group not necessarily compact. Let M be a proper semialgebraic G-set whose orbit space has a semialgebraic structure. In this paper, we prove the embeddability of M into a G-representation space when G is linear.

We present a test observation result of the KMTNet Intensive Nearby Southern Galaxy group Survey (KINGS). The KINGS is designed to study nearby galaxy groups (NGC 55, NGC 253, NGC 5128, and M83 groups), taking the advantage of the wide field coverage of the KMTNet. The main goal of the KINGS is to produce extensive catalogs of dwarf galaxies, ultra compact dwarfs (UCDs), and intraglobular clusters in the galaxy groups. We will also investigate the spatial distribution of intragroup light in each group. We present a progress report of the project based on the test BVI observations of two galaxy groups. We discuss the result from the test observation and possible improvement for future observations.

In 1980 and 1983, it was proved that P $D^{2}$-groups are surface groups ([2], [3]). Since then, topologists have been positively studying about P $D^{n}$ -groups (or $D^{n}$ -groups). For example, let a topological space X have a right .pi.-action, where .pi. is a multiplicative group. If each x.memX has an open neighborhood U such that for each u.mem..pi., u.neq.1, U.cap. $U_{u}$ =.phi., this right .pi.-action is said to be proper. In this case, if X/.pi. is compact then (1) .pi.$_{1}$(X/.pi).iden..pi.(X:connected, .pi.$_{1}$: fundamental group) ([4]), (2) if X is a differentiable orientable manifold with demension n and .rho.X (the boundary of X)=.phi. then $H^{k}$ (X;Z).iden. $H_{n-k}$(X;Z), ([6]), where Z is the set of all integers.s.

This study presents the compact zoom lens with a zoom ratio of 5x for a mobile camera by using a prism. The lens modules and aberrations are applied to the initial design for a four-group inner-focus zoom system. An initial design with a focal length range of 4.4 to 22.0 mm is derived by assigning the first-order quantities and third-order aberrations to each module along with the constraints required for optimum solutions. We separately designed a real lens for each group and then combined them to establish an actual zoom system. The combination of the separately designed groups results in a system that satisfies the basic properties of the zoom system consisting of the original lens modules. In order to have a slim system, we directly inserted the right-angle prism in front of the first group. This configuration resulted in a more compact zoom system with a depth of 8 mm. The finally designed zoom lens has an f-number of 3.5 to 4.5 and is expected to fulfill the requirements for a slim mobile zoom camera having high zoom ratio of 5x.

Let G and H be compact connected Lie groups with biinvariant Riemannian metrics g and h respectively, ${\phi}$ a group isomorphism of G onto H, and $E:={\phi}^{-1}TH$ the induced bundle by $\phi$ over the base manifold G of the tangent bundle TH of H. Let ${\nabla}$ and $^H{\nabla}$ be the Levi-Civita connections for the metrics g and h respectively, $\tilde{\nabla}$ the induced connection by the map ${\phi}$ and $^H{\nabla}$. Then, a necessary and sufficient condition for $\tilde{\nabla}$ in the bundle (${\phi}^{-1}TH$, G, ${\pi}$) to be a Yang- Mills connection is the fact that the Levi-Civita connection ${\nabla}$ in the tangent bundle over (G, g) is a Yang- Mills connection. As an application, we get the following: Let ${\psi}$ be an automorphism of a compact connected semisimple Lie group G with the canonical metric g (the metric which is induced by the Killing form of the Lie algebra of G), ${\nabla}$ the Levi-Civita connection for g. Then, the induced connection $\tilde{\nabla}$, by ${\psi}$ and ${\nabla}$, is a Yang-Mills connection in the bundle (${\phi}^{-1}TH$, G, ${\pi}$) over the base manifold (G, g).
