Systems of conservation laws of Temple class, equations of associativity and linear¶congruences in P 4

Abstract: We propose a geometric correspondence between (a) linearly degenerate systems of conservation laws with rectilinear rarefaction curves and (b) congruences of lines in projective space whose developable surfaces are planar pencils of lines. We prove that in P 4 such congruences are necessarily linear. Based on the results of Castelnuovo, the classification of three-component systems is obtained, revealing a close relationship of the problem with projective geometry of the Veronesé variety V 2 ⊂ P 5 and the theo… Show more

“…, a k ), k = [ n− 1 2 ], is called the multidegree of the congruence, the first integer a 0 is precisely its order. For instance, the multidegree of a linear congruence B in P 5 is (1,3,2), this means precisely that the lines of B contained in a general hyperplane fill a hypersurface of degree 3, and that the number of lines contained in a general P 3 is 2. Since B is formed precisely by the 4-secant lines of its focal locus X , a Palatini threefold in P 5 , we find in this way that X cannot be contained in a cubic hypersurface while, conversely, its hyperplane section is.…”

“…These include the classification of varieties with one apparent double point ( [6,7]), the degree of irrationality of general hypersurfaces ( [4,5]) and in hyperbolic conservation laws, so called Temple systems of partial differential equations ( [3,10]). For a survey of order one congruences of lines, see [11].…”
