Nonhomogeneous recursions and Generalised Continued Fractions

Consider the (n+1)st order nonhomogeneous recursionX _k+n+1=b _k X _k+n +a _k ⁽ⁿ⁾ X _k+n-1+...+a _k ⁽¹⁾ X _k +X _k .Leth be a particular solution, andf ⁽¹⁾,...,f ⁽ⁿ⁾,g independent solutions of the associated homogeneous equation. It is supposed thatg dominatesf ⁽¹⁾,...,f ⁽ⁿ⁾ andh. If we want to calculate a solutiony which is dominated byg, but dominatesf ⁽¹⁾,...,f ⁽ⁿ⁾, then forward and backward recursion are numerically unstable. A stable algorithm is derived if we use results constituting a link between Generalised Continued Fractions and Recursion Relations.     

A new continuation method for complementarity problems with uniformP-functions

The complementarity problem with a nonlinear continuous mappingf from the nonnegative orthantR ₊ ⁿ ofR ⁿ intoR ⁿ can be written as the system of equationsF(x, y) = 0 and(x, y) R ₊ ²ⁿ , whereF denotes the mapping from the nonnegative orthantR ₊ ²ⁿ ofR ²ⁿ intoR ₊ ⁿ × Rⁿ defined byF(x, y) = (x ₁y₁,,x_ny_n, f₁(x) – y₁,, f_n(x) – y_n) for every(x, y) R ₊ ²ⁿ . Under the assumption thatf is a uniformP-function, this paper establishes that the mappingF is a homeomorphism ofR ₊ ²ⁿ ontoR ₊ ⁿ × Rⁿ. This result provides a theoretical basis for a new continuation method of tracing the solution curve of the one parameter family of systems of equationsF(x, y) = tF(x ⁰, y⁰) and(x, y) R ₊ ²ⁿ from an arbitrary initial point(x ⁰, y⁰) R ₊ ²ⁿ witht = 1 until the parametert attains 0. This approach is an extension of the one used in the polynomially bounded algorithm recently given by Kojima, Mizuno and Yoshise for solving linear complementarity problems with positive semi-definite matrices.     

Superstability of the generalized orthogonality equation on restricted domains

Chmielinski has proved in the paper [4] the superstability of the generalized orthogonality equation |〈f(x), f(y)〉| = |〈x,y〉|. In this paper, we will extend the result of Chmielinski by proving a theorem: LetD _n be a suitable subset of ℝⁿ. If a function f:D _n → ℝⁿ satisfies the inequality ∥〈f(x), f(y)〉| |〈x,y〉∥ ≤ φ(x,y) for an appropriate control function φ(x, y) and for allx, y ∈ D _n, thenf satisfies the generalized orthogonality equation for anyx, y ∈ D _n.     

The Łojasiewicz exponent of an analytic function at an isolated zero

Let f be a real analytic function defined in a neighborhood of 0 ? \Bbb Rⁿ 0 \in {\Bbb R}^n such that f^-1(0)={0} f^{-1}(0)=\{0\} . We describe the smallest possible exponents !, #, / for which we have the following estimates: |f(x)| 3 c|x|^a |f(x)|\geq c|x|^{\alpha} , |grad f(x)| 3 c|x|^b |{\rm grad}\,f(x)|\geq c|x|^{\beta} , |grad f(x)| 3 c|f(x)|^q |{\rm grad}\,f(x)|\geq c|f(x)|^{\theta} for x near zero with c > 0 c > 0 . We prove that a = b+1 \alpha=\beta+1, q = b/a\theta=\beta/\alpha . Moreover b = N+a/b \beta=N+a/b where $ 0 h a < b h N^{n-1} $ 0 h a < b h N^{n-1} . If f is a polynomial then |f(x)| 3 c|x|^(degf-1)n+1 |f(x)|\geq c|x|^{(\deg f-1)^n+1} in a small neighborhood of zero.     

Intrinsic metrics preserving maps on Abelian lattice-ordered groups

Swamy studied the natural metric ¦x–y¦ on Abelian lattice-ordered groupsG, and he proved that the stable isometries which preserve this metric have to be automorphisms ofG. Holland proved that the only intrinsic metrics on lattice-ordered groups, i.e., invariant and symmetric metrics, are the multiples n¦x –y¦ for some integern. We show that iff is an arbitrary surjection from an Abelian lattice-ordered groupG ₁ onto an Archimedean Abelian lattice-ordered groupG ₂ such that f(0)]0 and, for some non-zero intrinsic metricsD andd, D(f(x),f(y)) depends functionally on d(x,y), thenf is a homomorphism of G₁ onto G₂.Presented by R.

On the algebraic structure of Abelian integrals for a kind of perturbed cubic Hamiltonian systems

The finite generators of Abelian integral are obtained, where Γh is a family of closed ovals defined by H(x,y)=x²+y²+ax⁴+bx²y²+cy⁴=h, h∈Σ, ac(4ac−b²)≠0, Σ=(0,h₁) is the open interval on which Γh is defined, f(x,y), g(x,y) are real polynomials in x and y with degree 2n+1 (n?2). And an upper bound of the number of zeros of Abelian integral I(h) is given by its algebraic structure for a special case a>0, b=0, c=1.     

Dynamics of Rational Surface Automorphisms: Linear Fractional Recurrences

We consider the family f _a,b (x,y)=(y,(y+a)/(x+b)) of birational maps of the plane and the parameter values (a,b) for which f _a,b gives an automorphism of a rational surface. In particular, we find values for which f _a,b is an automorphism of positive entropy but no invariant curve. The Main Theorem: If f _a,b is an automorphism with an invariant curve and positive entropy, then either (1) (a,b) is real, and the restriction of f to the real points has maximal entropy, or (2) f _a,b has a rotation (Siegel) domain.

On the Greatest Common Divisor of u ? 1 and v ? 1 with u and v Near S{\cal S}-units

In [2], it was shown that if a and b are multiplicatively independent integers and ɛ > 0, then the inequality gcd (aⁿ − 1,bⁿ − 1) < exp(ɛn) holds for all but finitely many positive integers n. Here, we generalize the above result. In particular, we show that if f(x),f₁(x),g(x),g₁(x) are non-zero polynomials with integer coefficients, then for every ɛ > 0, the inequality gcd (f(n)aⁿ+g(n), f₁(n)bⁿ+g₁(n)) < exp(ne){\rm gcd}\, (f(n)a^n+g(n), f_1(n)b^n+g_1(n)) < \exp(n\varepsilon) holds for all but finitely many positive integers n.     

Weighted mean convergence of Hakopian interpolation on the disk

In this paper, we study weighted mean integral convergence of Hakopian interpolation on the unit disk D. We show that the inner product between Hakopian interpolation polynomial Hn(f;x,y) and a smooth function g(x,y) on D converges to that of f(x,y) and g(x,y) on D when n →∞, provided f(x,y) belongs to C(D) and all first partial derivatives of g(x,y) belong to the space LipαM(0 ＜α≤ 1). We further show that provided all second partial derivatives of g(x,y) also belong to the space LipαM and f(x,y) belongs to C1 (D), the inner product between the partial derivative of Hakopian interpolation polynomial (6)/(6)xHn(f;x,y) and g(x,y) on D converges to that between (6)/(6)xf(x,y) and g(x,y) on D when n →∞.

In the case of existence the smallest numberN=Ra_kis called a Rado number if it is guaranteed that anyk-coloring of the numbers 1, 2, …, Ncontains a monochromatic solution of a given system of linear equations. We will determine Ra_k(a, b) for the equationa(x+y)=bzifb=2 andb=a+1. Also, the case of monochromatic sequences {x_n} generated bya(x_n+x_n+1)=bx_n+2 is discussed.

Die Entropie einer linear gebrochenen Funktion

Let the continuous broken linear transformationf of the unit interval into itself satisfyingf(0)=f(1)=0 be determined by the coordinates of its peak pointP (x, y). The topological entropyh off, as a function of (x, y), is zero outside the triangle max (x, 1–x)<y1. Inside it is shown to be nonzero, continuous, monotonically increasing both iny/x and iny/(1–x) and to assume its maximum log2 ony=1. The level curvec(h ₀) of constant corresponding entropyh ₀>0 is a continuous curve joining the two diagonalsy=x andy=1–x in whichh has discontinuities (jumping to zero). For 1/2log2<hlog 2 the curvesc(h) pass through (0,1) withy=1 as a tangent and fill up the area bounded below by the parabolay ²=1–x on whichh(x,y)=1/2 log 2. For 1/2 log 2 <h log 2 the curvec(h) is the image of the arc ofc(2h) between the hyperbolax ²–xy2x+1=0 and the diagonaly=1–x under the transformation .

A Numerical solution to the linear and nonlinear Fredholm integral equations using Legendre wavelet functions

Two methods for solving the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind in linear case, i.e. f (x) – λ ∫_a^b K (x,y)f (y)dy = g (x), and nonlinear case, i.e., f (x) = g (x) + λ ∫_a^b K (x,y)F (f (y))dy, are proposed. In order to solve the linear equation, the kernel K (x,y) as well as the functions f and g are initially approximated through Legendre wavelet functions. This leads to a system of linear equations its solution culminates in a solution to the Fredholm integral equation. In nonlinear case only K (x,y) is approximated by Legendre wavelet base functions. This leads to a separable kernel and makes it possible to employ a number of earlier methods in solving nonlinear Fredholm integral equation with separable kernels. Another feature of the proposed method is that it finds the solution as a function instead of specific solution points, what is done by the majority of the existing methods.

On the existence of certain measures appearing in distance geometry

Abstract. We prove the following result: Let X be a compact connected Hausdorff space and f be a continuous function on X x X. There exists some regular Borel probability measure m\mu on X such that the value of¶¶ ò\limit _X f(x,y)dm(y)\int\limit _X f(x,y)d\mu (y) is independent of the choice of x in X if and only if the following assertion holds: For each positive integer n and for all (not necessarily distinct) x₁,x₂,...,x_n,y₁,y₂,...,y_n in X, there exists an x in X such that¶¶ ?_i=1ⁿ f(x_i,x)=?_i=1ⁿ f(y_i,x).\sum\limits _{i=1}^n f(x_i,x)=\sum\limits _{i=1}^n f(y_i,x).     

Reducibility of polynomials a0(x) + a1 (x)y + a2 (x) y2 modulo p

Let f=a₀(x)+a₁(x)y+a₂(x)y² ? \Bbb Z[x,y]f=a_0(x)+a_1(x)y+a_2(x)y^2\in {\Bbb Z}[x,y] be an absolutely irreducible polynomial of degree m in x. We show that the reduction f mod p will also be absolutely irreducible if p 3 c_m·H(f)^e_mp\ge c_m\cdot H(f)^{e_m} where H (f) is the height of f and e₁ = 4,e₂ = 6, e₃ = 6 [2/3]{2}\over{3} and e_m = 2 m for m S 4. We also show that the exponents e_m are best possible for m 1 3m\ne 3 if a plausible number theoretic conjecture is true.
