Uniform Convergence of Trigonometric Series with Rarely Changing Coefficients

We consider the series and whose coefficients satisfy the condition for , where the sequence can be expressed as the union of a finite number of lacunary sequences. The following results are obtained. If as , then the series is uniformly convergent. If for all , then the sequence of partial sums of this series is uniformly bounded. If the series is convergent for and as , then this series is uniformly convergent. If the sequence of partial sums of the series for is bounded and for all , then the sequence of partial sums of this series is uniformly bounded. In these assertions, conditions on the rates of decrease of the coefficients of the series are also necessary if the sequence is lacunary. In the general case, they are not necessary.     

Morrey Regularity of Nonlinear Elliptic Systems of High Order under Degeneration of Ellipticity

We study nonlinear elliptic systems of the form , even, , with the natural energy space . We establish that for solutions from belong to the Morrey space and the Morrey exponent does not tend to zero under the degeneration of ellipticity. In the case , a similar result is obtained under an additional structure condition on the system.     

The Multidimensional Weyl Theorem and Covering Families

The well-known theorem of Weyl about the essential self-adjointness of the Sturm--Liouville operator in with , and is generalized to second-order elliptic operators in . The multidimensional Weyl theorem is derived from a more general theorem; to state and prove the latter, a special covering family is constructed. The results obtained imply the known multidimensional analogs of the Weyl theorem and, unlike these analogs, apply to open proper subsets in .     

Augmentation and Modification Problems for Hermitian Matrices

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the augmentation and modification problems of order for Hermitian matrices. The augmentation problem consists in the construction of a Hermitian -matrix with a given -block in block -representation and with the prescribed eigenvalues. The modification problem consists in the construction of a Hermitian -matrix of rank not greater than so that the obtained matrix, being added to a given Hermitian -matrix , will have the required spectrum. We give an estimate for the minimal number of different eigenvalues of the solutions to these problems.     

Some Generalizations of the Notion of Length

Two numerical characteristics of a nonrectifiable arc generalizing the notion of length are introduced. Geometrically, this notion can naturally be generalized as the least upper bound of the sums , where are the lengths of segments of a polygonal line inscribed in the curve and is a given function. On the other hand, the length of is the norm of the functional in the space ; its norms in other spaces can be considered as analytical generalizations of length. In this paper, we establish conditions under which the generalized geometric rectifiability of a curve implies its generalized analytic rectifiability.     

Gibbs Measures and Markov Random Fields with Association $$I $$

We introduce the notions of a Gibbs measure with the corresponding potential with association (where is a subset of the set ) of a Markov random field with memory and measure with association . It is proved that these three notions are equivalent.     

Joint Approximations of Distributions in Banach Spaces

For a given homogeneous elliptic partial differential operator with constant complex coefficients, two Banach spaces and of distributions in , and compact sets and in , we study joint approximations in the norms of the spaces and (the spaces of Whitney jet-distributions) by the solutions of the equation in neighborhoods of the set . We obtain a localization theorem, which, under certain conditions, allows one to reduce the above-cited approximation problem to the corresponding separate problems in each of the spaces.     

Characterization of Normal Traces on Von Neumann Algebras by Inequalities for the Modulus

It is proved that if a normal semifinite weight on a von Neumann algebra satisfies the inequality for any selfadjoint operators in , then this weight is a trace. Several similar characterizations of traces among the normal semifinite weights are proved. In particular, Gardner's result on the characterization of traces by the inequality is refined and reinforced.

On the Continuity of the Generalized Nemytskii Operator on Spaces of Differentiable Functions

We obtain sufficient conditions for the continuity of the general nonlinear superposition operator (generalized Nemytskii operator) acting from the space of differentiable functions on a bounded domain to the Lebesgue space . The values of operators on a function are locally determined by the values of both the function itself and all of its partial derivatives up to order inclusive. In certain particular cases, the sufficient conditions obtained are proved to be necessary as well. The results are illustrated by several examples, and an application to the theory of Sobolev spaces is also given.

Properties of the Absolute That Affect Smoothness of Flows on Closed Surfaces

Let be a closed orientable surface of genus , endowed with the structure of a Riemann manifold of constant negative curvature. For the universal covering , there is the notion of absolute, each of whose points determines an asymptotic direction of a bundle of parallel equidirected geodesics. In the paper it is proved that there is a set on the absolute having the cardinality of the continuum and such that if an arbitrary flow on has a semitrajectory whose covering has asymptotic direction defined by a point from , then this flow is not analytical and has infinitely many stationary points.

Trajectory and Global Attractors of Three-Dimensional Navier--Stokes Systems

We construct the trajectory attractor of a three-dimensional Navier--Stokes system with exciting force . The set consists of a class of solutions to this system which are bounded in , defined on the positive semi-infinite interval of the time axis, and can be extended to the entire time axis so that they still remain bounded-in- solutions of the Navier--Stokes system. In this case any family of bounded-in- solutions of this system comes arbitrary close to the trajectory attractor . We prove that the solutions are continuous in t if they are treated in the space of functions ranging in . The restriction of the trajectory attractor to , , is called the global attractor of the Navier--Stokes system. We prove that the global attractor thus defined possesses properties typical of well-known global attractors of evolution equations. We also prove that as the trajectory attractors and the global attractors of the -order Galerkin approximations of the Navier--Stokes system converge to the trajectory and global attractors and , respectively. Similar problems are studied for the cases of an exciting force of the form depending on time and of an external force rapidly oscillating with respect to the spatial variables or with respect to time .

Orientations of Spines of Homology Balls

Oriented special spines of 3-manifolds are studied. (Orientation is an additional structure on the spine, and each 3-manifold possesses a special spine with such a structure.) The transformations (moves) and of special spines, which do not change the manifold, are well known. It is proved that and preserve orientability of a spine, while and do not. For spines of homology balls, a class of moves is described allowing one to pass from a given orientation of a spine to any other orientation of the spine. Bibliography: 6 titles.

For an orthogonal polynomial system and a sequence of nonzero numbers,let be the linear operator defined on the linear spaceof all polynomials via for all .We investigate conditions on and under which can simultaneously preserve the orthogonality ofdifferent polynomial systems. As an application, we get that for , a generalized Laguerre polynomial system, no can simultaneously preserve the orthogonality of twoadditional Laguerre systems, and , where and . On the other hand, for ,the Chebyshev polynomial system and , simultaneously preserves the orthogonality of uncountablymany kernel polynomial systems associated with p. We study manyother examples of this type.
