Some properties of essential spectra of a positive operator, II

Let T be a positive operator on a Banach lattice E. Some properties of Weyl essential spectrum σ_ew(T), in particular, the equality , where is the set of all compact operators on E, are established. If r(T) does not belong to Fredholm essential spectrum σ_ef(T), then for every a ≠ 0, where T₋₁ is a residue of the resolvent R(., T) at r(T). The new conditions for which implies , are derived. The question when the relation holds, where is Lozanovsky’s essential spectrum, will be considered. Lozanovsky’s order essential spectrum is introduced. A number of auxiliary results are proved. Among them the following generalization of Nikol’sky’s theorem: if T is an operator of index zero, then T = R + K, where R is invertible, K ≥ 0 is of finite rank. Under the natural assumptions (one of them is ) a theorem about the Frobenius normal form is proved: there exist T-invariant bands such that if , where , then an operator on D_i is band irreducible.

A priori bounds and a Liouville theorem on a half-space for higher-order elliptic Dirichlet problems

We consider the 2m-th order elliptic boundary value problem Lu = f (x, u) on a bounded smooth domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions on ∂Ω. The operator L is a uniformly elliptic operator of order 2m given by . For the nonlinearity we assume that , where are positive functions and q > 1 if N ≤ 2m, if N > 2m. We prove a priori bounds, i.e, we show that for every solution u, where C > 0 is a constant. The solutions are allowed to be sign-changing. The proof is done by a blow-up argument which relies on the following new Liouville-type theorem on a half-space: if u is a classical, bounded, non-negative solution of ( − Δ) ^m u  =  u ^q in with Dirichlet boundary conditions on and q > 1 if N ≤ 2m, if N > 2m then .

An improved Poincaré inequality and validity of the Palais-Smale condition are investigated for the energy functional on , 1 < p < ∞, where Ω is a bounded domain in , is a spectral (control) parameter, and is a given function, in Ω. Analysis is focused on the case λ = λ₁, where −λ₁ is the first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet p-Laplacian Δ _p on , λ₁ > 0, and on the “quadratization” of within an arbitrarily small cone in around the axis spanned by , where stands for the first eigenfunction of Δ _p associated with −λ₁.     

Increasing functions and inverse Santaló inequality for unconditional functions

Let be a convex function and be its Legendre tranform. It is proved that if is invariant by changes of signs, then . This is a functional version of the inverse Santaló inequality for unconditional convex bodies due to J. Saint Raymond. The proof involves a general result on increasing functions on together with a functional form of Lozanovskii’s lemma. In the last section, we prove that for some c > 0, one has always . This generalizes a result of B. Klartag and V. Milman.

On a certain Maximum Principle for Positive Operators in an Ordered Normed Space

The equation for a positive linear continuous operator is considered in an ordered normed space , where the cone is assumed to be closed and having a nonempty interior. Then the dual cone of K possesses a base . Generalizing the well known maximum principle for positive matrices an operator A is said to satisfy the maximum principle, if for any there exists a positive linear continuous functional which is both, maximal on the element Ax, i.e. , and positive on the element x, i.e. 0$$ " align="middle" border="0"> . This property is studied and characterized both analytically by some extreme point condition and geometrically by means of the behaviour under A of the faces of the cone K. It is shown that the conditions which have been obtained for finite dimensional spaces in earlier relevant papers are special cases of conditions presented in this paper. The maximum pinciple is proved for simple operators in the spaces and c.
