A Representation of the Lorentz Spin Group and Its Application

For an integer m ≥ 4, we define a set of 2[m/2] × 2[m/2] matrices γj （m）, （j = 0, 1,..., m - 1） which satisfy γj （m）γk （m） ＋γk （m）γj （m） = 2ηjk （m）I[m/2], where （ηjk （m）） 0≤j,k≤m-1 is a diagonal matrix, the first diagonal element of which is 1 and the others are -1, I[m/2] is a 2[m/1] × 2[m/2] identity matrix with [m/2] being the integer part of m/2. For m = 4 and 5, the representation （m） of the Lorentz Spin group is known. For m≥ 6, we prove that （i） when m = 2n, （n ≥ 3）, （m） is the group generated by the set of matrices {T｜T=1/√ξ（（I＋k） 0 ＋ 0 I-K） （ U 0 0 U）, （ii） when m = 2n ＋ 1 （n≥ 3）, （m） is generated by the set of matrices {T｜T=1/√ξ（I -k^- k I）U,U∈ （m-1）,ξ=1-m-2 ∑k,j=0 ηkja^k a^j〉0, K=i[m-3 ∑j=0 a^j γj（m-2）＋a^（m-2） In],K^-=i[m-3∑j=0 a^j γj（m-2）-a^（m-2） In]}

Asymptotic distribution of a Cramér-von mises type statistic for testing symmetry when the center is estimated

Summary In this paper we investigate the effect of estimating the center of symmetry on a Cramér-von Mises type statistic for testing the symmetry of a distribution function. The test statistic is defined by whereF _n is the empirical distribution function andS[F _n] is an estimator of the center ofF which is consistent with the ordern ^1/2 and has von Mises derivative. The asymptotic distribution ofnT ₀[F_n] under the null hypothesis is obtained. The distribution depends on the distributionF and on the estimatorS[F _n].

We show that the zeros of the hypergeometric polynomials , , cluster on the loop of the lemniscate as . We also state the equations of the curves on which the zeros of , lie asymptotically as . Auxiliary results for the asymptotic zero distribution of other functions related to hypergeometric polynomials are proved, including Jacobi polynomials with varying parameters and associated Legendre functions. Graphical evidence is provided using Mathematica. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A new algebraic approach to the Szegő-Widom limit theorem

We give another proof of the Szeg\H{o}–Widom Limit Theorem. This proof relies on a new Banach algebra method that can be directly applied to the asymptotic computation of the Toeplitz determinants. As a by-product, we establish an interesting identity for operator determinants of Toeplitz operators, namely if are certain matrix valued functions defined on the unit circle, then

On the Relationship Between the Baum-Katz-Spitzer Complete Convergence Theorem and the Law of the Iterated Logarithm

For a sequence of i.i.d. Banach space-valued random variables {Xn; n ≥ 1} and a sequence of positive constants {an; n ≥ 1}, the relationship between the Baum-Katz-Spitzer complete convergence theorem and the law of the iterated logarithm is investigated. Sets of conditions are provided under which （i） lim sup n→∞ ｜｜Sn｜｜/an〈∞ a.s.and ∞ ∑n=1（1/n）P（｜｜Sn｜｜/an ≥ε〈∞for all ε 〉 λ for some constant λ ∈ [0, ∞） are equivalent; （ii） For all constants λ ∈ [0, ∞）, lim sup ｜｜Sn｜｜/an =λ a.s.and ^∞∑ n=1（1/n） P（｜｜Sn｜｜/an ≥ε）{〈∞, if ε〉λ =∞,if ε〈λare equivalent. In general, no geometric conditions are imposed on the underlying Banach space. Corollaries are presented and new results are obtained even in the case of real-valued random variables.

Integration of a zonal function related to the local harmonic analysis on spheres

In studying local harmonic analysis on the sphere Sⁿ, R.S. Strichartz introduced certain zonal functions ϕ₂(d(x, y)) which satisfy the equation , where Δ_z is the Laplace operator and δ_−y the Dirac measure.
