ON THE EXISTENCE AND NODAL CHARACTER OF THE SOLUTIONS OF SINGULAR NONLINEAR BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS

§ 1. Introduction We consider the singular nonlinear boundary value problem where l=v+3/v-1,l+1 is the critical exponent of the embedding of weighted Sobolev space W_t~2~(1,2)(O, +∞) into L_t~2~q(O, ∞), v>2. When v=N-1 we can get the radial solutions of problem where 2~*=2N/N-2 is the critical exponent of the Sobolev embedding H~1(R~n)→L~Q(R~N). Kurtz has discussed the existence of κ-node solution of (1.1), (1.2) for each κ∈N U{0} when the growth rate of |u|~(l-1)u+f(u) is lower then |u|~(v+3/v-1) i.e.

In this paper,we study the uniform convergence rate of kernel density estimate f_nand get optimal uniform rate of convergence without the assumption of compact supportfor kernel function.It is proved that if the density function f satisfies λ-condition andthe kernel function K is λ-good(see section 1),then we havelimsup (n/(logn))~(λ/(1+2λ))丨_n(x)-f(x)丨≤const,a.s.     

UNIFORM STRONG CONVERGENCE RATE OF NEAREST NEIGHBOR DENSITY ESTIMATION

Based on [3] and [4],the authors study strong convergence rate of the k_n-NNdensity estimate f_n(x)of the population density f(x),proposed in [1].f(x)>0 and fsatisfies λ-condition at x(0<λ≤2),then for properly chosen k_nlim sup(n/(logn)~(λ/(1 2λ))丨_n(x)-f(x)丨C a.s.If f satisfies λ-condition,then for propeoly chosen k_nlim sup(n/(logn)~(λ/(1 3λ)丨_n(x)-f(x)丨C a.s.,where C is a constant.An order to which the convergence rate of 丨_n(x)-f(x)丨andsup 丨_n(x)-f(x)丨 cannot reach is also proposed.

THE EXISTENCE OF OVERLARGE SETS OF IDEMPOTENT QUASIGROUPS

A idempotent quasigroup (Q, o) of order n is equivalent to an n(n-1)×3 partial orthogonal array in which all of rows consist of 3 distinct elements. Let X be a (n+1)-set. Denote by T(n+1) the set of (n+1)n(n-1) ordered triples of X with the property that the 3 coordinates of each ordered triple are distinct. An overlarge set of idempotent quasigroups of order n is a partition of T(n+1) into n+1 n(n-1)×3 partial orthogonal arrays A_x, x∈X based on X\{x}. This article gives an almost complete solution of overlarge sets of idempotent quasigroups.
