In mathematics , Kuiper s theorem after Nicolaas Kuiper is a result on the topology of operators on an infinite dimensional, complex Hilbert space H . It states that the topological space space GL H of invertible bounded operator bounded linear operator endomorphisms H is such that all maps from any CW complex finite complex Y to GL H are homotopic to a constant, for the norm topology on operators. A significant corollary, also referred to as Kuiper s theorem , is that this group is weakly contractible , ie. all its homotopy group s are trivial. This result has important uses in topological K theory . General topology of the general linear group For finite dimensional H , this group would be a complex general linear group and not at all contractible. In fact it is homotopy equivalent to its maximal compact subgroup , the unitary group U of H . The proof that the complex general linear group and unitary group have the same homotopy type is by the Gram Schmidt process , or through the matrix polar decomposition , and carries over to the infinite dimensional case of separable Hilbert space , basically because the space of upper triangular matrices is contractible as can be seen quite explicitly. The underlying phenomenon is that passing to infinitely many dimensions causes much of the topological complexity of the unitary groups to vanish but see the section on Bott s unitary ... before Kuiper s, may have the status of mathematical folklore , but it is quite often cited. ref John ... of bounded operators was proved by the Dutch mathematician Nicolaas Kuiper , for the case of a separable ... two years after Kuiper s, ref Richard Palais, Homotopy Theory of Infinite Dimensional Manifolds , Topology ... not contractible.

No footnotes date February 2012 Image Pluto express.jpg thumb right Pluto Kuiper Express artist s impression The Pluto Kuiper Express mission was a space mission designed to fly by the Pluto Charon moon Charon system and at least one other large object in the Kuiperbelt beyond Pluto s orbit. Originally designated the Pluto Fast Flyby , it was scheduled to reach Pluto by 2012. The mission was cancelled for budgetary reasons, but later replaced by the similar New Horizons mission. The timing of the mission was important, as it would have passed Pluto shortly before the planet s celestial body atmosphere atmosphere froze, which it does for a considerable period of the planet s orbit. The mission s main objectives would have been to map the planet s surface and examine the double system s geology and geomorphology, as well as determining the composition of Pluto s atmosphere. This last task would have been considerably more difficult after the start of atmospheric freezing. Scientific equipment on board would have included visible light imaging systems, infrared and ultraviolet spectrometer s, and an ultrastable oscillator USO for use in a radio occultation experiment. The spacecraft was to have been a simple hexagonal prism shaped structure weighing some 220 kg, powered by radioisotope thermal generator s RTGs similar to those used on the Galileo probe Galileo and Cassini probe Cassini ... for KuiperBelt objects .

The design of the belt buckle is usually a hollow metal rectangular box through which the cloth cord passes through, when fastened, a pin with the length equal to the width of the cord is pushed up from a groove and stops the cloth by increasing the amount of friction needed to pull the cloth cord further through the box. This mechanism removes the need for holes in the cord, which is a common feature on many other designs, it also allows the wearer to adjust the belt to the exact size needed, as it is not limited by the holes.
