We study Ruan's \textit{cohomological crepant resolution conjecture} for orbifolds with transversal ADE singularities. In the $A_n$-case we compute both the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring $H^*_{\rm CR}([Y])$ and the quantum corrected cohomology ring $H^*(Z)(q_1,...,q_n)$. The former is achieved in general, the later up to some additional, technical assumptions. We construct an explicit isomorphism between $H^*_{\rm CR}([Y])$ and $H^*(Z)(-1)$ in the $A_1$-case, verifying Ruan's conjecture. In the $A_n$-case, the family $H^*(Z)(q_1,...,q_n)$ is not defined for $q_1=...=q_n=-1$. This implies that the conjecture should be slightly modified. We propose a new conjecture in the $A_n$-case which we prove in the $A_2$-case by constructing an explicit isomorphism.
We study Ruan's "cohomological crepant resolution conjecture" (see math.AG/0108195) for orbifolds with transversal ADE singularities. Let [Y] be such an orbifold, Y its coarse moduli space and Z the crepant resolution of Y. Following Ruan [math.AG/0108195], we have a deformation of the cohomology ring H^*(Z) using some Gromov-Witten invariants of Z. The resulting family of rings will be denoted by H^*(Z)(q_1,...,q_n), where q_1,...,q_n are complex parameters. In the A_n case we compute both the orbifold cohomology ring H^*_{orb}([Y]) and the family H^*(Z)(q_1,...,q_n). The former is achieved in general, the later up to an explicit conjecture on the Gromov-Witten invariants which is verified under additional, technical assumptions. We construct an explicit isomorphism between H^*_{orb}([Y]) and H^*(Z)(-1) in the A_1 case, verifying Ruan's conjecture. In the A_2 case, the family H^*(q_1,q_2) is not defined for q_1=q_2=-1, so the conjecture should be slightly modified. However we give an explicit isomorphism between H^*_{orb}([Y]) and H^*(Z)(q_1,q_2) with q_1=q_2 be a primitive third root of the unity, thus proving a slightly modified version of Ruan's conjecture. It is natural to conjecture that, in the A_n case, H^*_{orb}([Y]) is isomorphic to H^*(Z)(q_1,...,q_n) with q_1=...=q_n be a primitive (n+1)-th root of the unity.
An experimental test of a large fluctuation theorem is performed on a chain of coupled ``cat maps''. Our interest is focused on the behavior of a subsystem of this chain. A local entropy creation rate is defined and we show that the local fluctuation theorem derived in [G1] is experimentally observable already for small subsystems.
