Uniformly summing sets of operators on spaces of vector–valued continuous functions

We also characterize the sets with the property that is uniformly summing viewed in . Received: 1 July 2005     

Sums of Bisectorial Operators and Applications

We study sums of bisectorial operators on a Banach space X and show that interpolation spaces between X and D(A) (resp. D(B)) are maximal regularity spaces for the problem Ay + By = x in X.

Representation Rings of Lie Superalgebras

Given a Lie superalgebra , we introduce several variants of the representation ring, built as subrings and quotients of the ring of virtual -supermodules, up to (even) isomorphisms. In particular, we consider the ideal of virtual -supermodules isomorphic to their own parity reversals, as well as an equivariant K-theoretic super representation ring on which the parity reversal operator takes the class of a virtual -supermodule to its negative. We also construct representation groups built from ungraded -modules, as well as degree-shifted representation groups using Clifford modules. The full super representation ring , including all degree shifts, is then a -graded ring in the complex case and a -graded ring in the real case. Our primary result is a six-term periodic exact sequence relating the rings , and . We first establish a version of it working over an arbitrary (not necessarily algebraically closed) field of characteristic 0. In the complex case, this six-term periodic long exact sequence splits into two three-term sequences, which gives us additional insight into the structure of the complex super representation ring . In the real case, we obtain the expected 24-term version, as well as a surprising six-term version, of this periodic exact sequence. (Received: October 2004)

Birkhoff coordinates for KdV on phase spaces of distributions

The purpose of this paper is to extend the construction of Birkhoff coordinates for the KdV equation from the phase space of square integrable 1-periodic functions with mean value zero to the phase space of mean value zero distributions from the Sobolev space endowed with the symplectic structure More precisely, we construct a globally defined real-analytic symplectomorphism where is a weighted Hilbert space of sequences supplied with the canonical Poisson structure so that the KdV Hamiltonian for potentials in is a function of the actions alone.

Localization Operators and Exponential Weights for Modulation Spaces

We study localization operators within the framework of ultradistributions. More precisely, given a symbol a and two windows φ₁, φ₂, we investigate the multilinear mapping from to the localization operator Results are formulated in terms of modulation spaces with weights which may have exponential growth. We give sufficient and necessary conditions for a to be bounded or to belong to a Schatten class. As an application, we study symbols defined by ultra-distributions with compact support, that give trace class localization operators.     

On the nuclearity of integral operators

Let X be a nonempty measurable subset of and consider the restriction of the usual Lebesgue measure σ of to X. Under the assumption that the intersection of X with every open ball of has positive measure, we find necessary and sufficient conditions on a L²(X)-positive definite kernel in order that the associated integral operator be nuclear. Taken nuclearity for granted, formulas for the trace of the operator are derived. Some of the results are re-analyzed when K is just an element of .
