Some specific unboundedness property in smoothness Morrey spaces. The non-existence of growth envelopes in the subcritical case

We study smoothness spaces of Morrey type on Rn and characterise in detail those situations when such spaces of type A_(p,q)~(s,r)(R~n) or A_(u,p,q)~s(R~n) are not embedded into L_(∞)(R~n).We can show that in the so-called sub-critical,proper Morrey case their growth envelope function is always infinite which is a much stronger assertion.The same applies for the Morrey spaces M_(u,p)(R~m) with p u.This is the first result in this direction and essentially contributes to a better understanding of the structure of the above spaces.     

On Dirichlet Type Spaces <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis><Stack><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">ω</Emphasis></Subscript><Superscript>2</Superscript></Stack> Over the Half–Plane

Some extensions of the results of the first author related with the Hilbert spaces A _ω,0 ² of functions holomorphic in the half–plane are proved. Some new Hilbert spaces A _ω ² of Dirichlet type are introduced, which are included in the Hardy space H2 over the half–plane. Several results on representations, boundary properties, isometry, interpolation, biorthogonal systems and bases are obtained for the spaces A _ω ² ? H₂.     

Weak- and strong-type inequality for the cone-like maximal operator in variable Lebesgue spaces

The classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded not only on the classical Lebesgue spaces L_p(R^d) (in the case p > 1), but (in the case when 1/p(·) is log-Hölder continuous and p- = inf{p(x): x ∈ R^d > 1) on the variable Lebesgue spaces L_p(·)(R^d), too. Furthermore, the classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is of weak-type (1, 1). In the present note we generalize Besicovitch’s covering theorem for the so-called γ-rectangles. We introduce a general maximal operator M_s^γδ, and with the help of generalized Φ-functions, the strong- and weak-type inequalities will be proved for this maximal operator. Namely, if the exponent function 1/p(·) is log-Hölder continuous and p- ≥ s, where 1 ≤ s ≤ ∞ is arbitrary (or p- ≥ s), then the maximal operator M_s^γδ is bounded on the space L_p(·)(R^d) (or the maximal operator is of weak-type (p(·), p(·))).     

On homogenization for non-self-adjoint locally periodic elliptic operators

In this note we consider the homogenization problem for a matrix locally periodic elliptic operator on R ^d of the form A ^ε = ?divA(x, x/ε)?. The function A is assumed to be Hölder continuous with exponent s ∈ [0, 1] in the “slow” variable and bounded in the “fast” variable. We construct approximations for (A ^ε ? μ)^?1, including one with a corrector, and for (?Δ) ^s/2(A ^ε ? μ)^?1 in the operator norm on L ₂(R ^d ) ⁿ . For s ≠ 0, we also give estimates of the rates of approximation.     

Paranormal Elements in Normed Algebra

For a normed algebra A and natural numbers k we introduce and investigate the ∥ · ∥ closed classes P _k (A). We show that P₁(A) is a subset of P _k (A) for all k. If T in P₁(A), then Tⁿ lies in P₁(A) for all natural n. If A is unital, U, V ∈ A are such that ∥U∥ = ∥V∥ = 1, VU = I and T lies in P _k (A), then UTV lies in P _k (A) for all natural k. Let A be unital, then 1) if an element T in P₁(A) is right invertible, then any right inverse element T^?1 lies in P₁(A); 2) for ßßIßß = 1 the class P₁(A) consists of normaloid elements; 3) if the spectrum of an element T, T ∈ P₁(A) lies on the unit circle, then ∥TX∥ = ∥X∥ for all X ∈ A. If A = B(H), then the class P₁(A) coincides with the set of all paranormal operators on a Hilbert space H.     

Removability of isolated singularities for anisotropic elliptic equations with gradient absorption

We study the well-posedness of the third-order degenerate differential equation \(\left( {{P_3}} \right):\alpha {\left( {Mu} \right)^{\prime \prime \prime }}\left( t \right) + {\left( {Mu} \right)^{\prime \prime }}\left( t \right) = \beta Au\left( t \right) + f\left( t \right)\), (t ∈ [0, 2p]) with periodic boundary conditions \(Mu\left( 0 \right) = Mu\left( {2\pi } \right),\;Mu'\left( 0 \right) = Mu'\left( {2\pi } \right),\;Mu''\left( 0 \right) = Mu''\left( {2\pi } \right)\), in periodic Lebesgue–Bochner spaces L^p(T,X), periodic Besov spaces B_p,q^s(T,X) and periodic Triebel–Lizorkin spaces F_p,q^s(T,X), where A, B and M are closed linear operators on a Banach space X satisfying D(A) \( \cap \)D(B) ? D(M) and α, β, γ ∈ R. Using known operator-valued Fourier multiplier theorems, we completely characterize the well-posedness of (P₃) in the above three function spaces.     

Perturbations of strongly continuous operator semigroups,and matrix Muckenhoupt weights

Let A and A ₀ be linear continuously invertible operators on a Hilbert space ? such that A ^?1 ? A ₀ ^?1 has finite rank. Assuming that σ(A ₀) = ? and that the operator semigroup V ₊(t) = exp{iA ₀ t}, t ≥ 0, is of class C ₀, we state criteria under which the semigroups U _±(t) = exp{±iAt}, t ≥ 0, are of class C ₀ as well. The analysis in the paper is based on functional models for nonself-adjoint operators and techniques of matrix Muckenhoupt weights.     

Nonlinear trigonometric approximations of multivariate function classes

Order-sharp estimates are established for the best N-term approximations of functions from Nikol’skii–Besov type classes B_pq^sm(T^k) with respect to the multiple trigonometric system T^(k) in the metric of L_r(T^k) for a number of relations between the parameters s, p, q, r, and m (s = (s₁,..., s_n) ∈ R₊ⁿ, 1 ≤ p, q, r ≤ ∞, m = (m₁,..., m_n) ∈ Nⁿ, k = m₁ +... + m_n). Constructive methods of nonlinear trigonometric approximation—variants of the so-called greedy algorithms—are used in the proofs of upper estimates.     

Irreducible <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis><Stack><Subscript>1</Subscript><Superscript>(1)</Superscript></Stack>-modules from modules over two-dimensional non-abelian Lie algebra

For any module V over the two-dimensional non-abelian Lie algebra b and scalar α ∈ C, we define a class of weight modules F ^α (V) with zero central charge over the affine Lie algebra A ₁ ⁽¹⁾ . These weight modules have infinitedimensional weight spaces if and only if V is infinite dimensional. In this paper, we will determine necessary and sufficient conditions for these modules F ^α(V) to be irreducible. In this way, we obtain a lot of irreducible weight A ₁ ⁽¹⁾ -modules with infinite-dimensional weight spaces.     

Variational Problems with Unilateral Pointwise Functional Constraints in Variable Domains

We consider a sequence of convex integral functionals F_s: W¹,^p(Ω_s) → ? and a sequence of weakly lower semicontinuous and generally nonintegral functionals G_s: W¹,^p(Ω_s) → ?, where {Ω_s} is a sequence of domains in ?ⁿ contained in a bounded domain Ω ? ?ⁿ (n ≥ 2) and p > 1. Along with this, we consider a sequence of closed convex sets V_s = {v ∈ W¹,^p(Ω_s): v ≥ K_s(v) a.e. in Ω_s}, where K_s is a mapping from the space W¹,^p(Ω_s) to the set of all functions defined on Ω_s. We establish conditions under which minimizers and minimum values of the functionals F_s + G_s on the sets V_s converge to a minimizer and the minimum value of a functional on the set V = {v ∈ W¹,^p(Ω): v ≥ K(v) a.e. in Ω}, where K is a mapping from the space W¹,^p(Ω) to the set of all functions defined on Ω. These conditions include, in particular, the strong connectedness of the spaces W¹,^p(Ω_s) with the space W¹,^p(Ω), the condition of exhaustion of the domain Ω by the domains Ω_s, the Γ-convergence of the sequence {F_s} to a functional F: W¹,^p(Ω) → ?, and a certain convergence of the sequence {G_s} to a functional G: W¹,^p(Ω) → ?. We also assume some conditions characterizing both the internal properties of the mappings K_s and their relation to the mapping K. In particular, these conditions admit the study of variational problems with irregular varying unilateral obstacles and with varying constraints combining the pointwise dependence and the functional dependence of the integral form.     

Obstructions to the uniform stability of a <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Subscript>0</Subscript>-semigroup

Let T _t : X → X be a C ₀-semigroup with generator A. We prove that if the abscissa of uniform boundedness of the resolvent s ₀(A) is greater than zero then for each nondecreasing function h(s): ?₊ → R ₊ there are x′ ∈ X′ and x ∈ X satisfying ∫ ₀ ^∞ h(|〈x′, T _x x〉|)dt = ∞. If i? ∩ Sp(A) ≠ Ø then such x may be taken in D(A ^∞).     

Elliptic function of level 4

The article is devoted to the theory of elliptic functions of level n. An elliptic function of level n determines a Hirzebruch genus called an elliptic genus of level n. Elliptic functions of level n are also of interest because they are solutions of the Hirzebruch functional equations. The elliptic function of level 2 is the Jacobi elliptic sine function, which determines the famous Ochanine–Witten genus. It is the exponential of the universal formal group of the form F(u, v) = (u² ? v²)/(uB(v) ? vB(u)), B(0) = 1. The elliptic function of level 3 is the exponential of the universal formal group of the form F(u, v) = (u²A(v) ? v²A(u))/(uA(v)² ? vA(u)²), A(0) = 1, A″(0) = 0. In the present study we show that the elliptic function of level 4 is the exponential of the universal formal group of the form F(u, v) = (u²A(v) ? v²A(u))/(uB(v) ? vB(u)), where A(0) = B(0) = 1 and for B′(0) = A″(0) = 0, A′(0) = A₁, and B″(0) = 2B₂ the following relation holds: (2B(u) + 3A₁u)² = 4A(u)³ ? (3A₁² ? 8B₂)u²A(u)². To prove this result, we express the elliptic function of level 4 in terms of the Weierstrass elliptic functions.     

Homogenization of hyperbolic equations

We consider a self-adjoint matrix elliptic operator A _{ε, ε} > 0, on L ₂(R ^d ;C ⁿ ) given by the differential expression b(D)*g(x/ε)b(D). The matrix-valued function g(x) is bounded, positive definite, and periodic with respect to some lattice; b(D) is an (m × n)-matrix first order differential operator such that m ≥ n and the symbol b(ξ) has maximal rank. We study the operator cosine cos(τA _ε ^1/2 ), where τ ∈ R. It is shown that, as ε → 0, the operator cos(τA _ε ^1/2 ) converges to cos(τ(A ⁰)^1/2) in the norm of operators acting from the Sobolev space H ^s (R ^d ;C ⁿ ) (with a suitable s) to L ₂(R ^d ;C ⁿ ). Here A ₀ is the effective operator with constant coefficients. Sharp-order error estimates are obtained. The question about the sharpness of the result with respect to the type of the operator norm is studied. Similar results are obtained for more general operators. The results are applied to study the behavior of the solution of the Cauchy problem for the hyperbolic equation ? _τ ² u _ε (x, τ) = ?A _ε u _ε (x, τ).

On the Nitsche conjecture for harmonic mappings in ℝ<Superscript>2</Superscript> and ℝ<Superscript>3</Superscript>

We give the new inequality related to the J. C. C. Nitsche conjecture (see [6]). Moreover, we consider the two- and three-dimensional case. LetA(r, 1)={z:r<|z|<1}. Nitsche's conjecture states that if there exists a univalent harmonic mapping from an annulusA(r, 1), to an annulusA(s, 1), thens is at most 2r/(r ²+1).Lyzzaik's result states thats<t wheret is the length of the Grötzsch's ring domain associated withA(r, 1) (see [5]). Weitsman's result states thats≤1/(1+1/2(r logr)²) (see [8]).Our result for two-dimensional space states thats≤1/(1+1/2 log² r) which improves Weitsman's bound for allr, and Lyzzaik's bound forr close to 1. For three-dimensional space the result states thats≤1/(r?logr).     

On boundary value problems for systems of nonlinear generalized ordinary differential equations

A general theorem (principle of a priori boundedness) on solvability of the boundary value problem dx = dA(t) · f(t, x), h(x) = 0 is established, where f: [a, b]×R ⁿ → R ⁿ is a vector-function belonging to the Carathéodory class corresponding to the matrix-function A: [a, b] → R ^n×n with bounded total variation components, and h: BV_s([a, b],R ⁿ ) → R ⁿ is a continuous operator. Basing on the mentioned principle of a priori boundedness, effective criteria are obtained for the solvability of the system under the condition x(t₁(x)) = B(x) · x(t ₂(x))+c ₀, where t _i: BV_s([a, b],R ⁿ ) → [a, b] (i = 1, 2) and B: BV_s([a, b], R ⁿ ) → R ⁿ are continuous operators, and c ₀ ∈ R ⁿ .     

Fast Algorithm of Square Rooting in Some Finite Fields of Odd Characteristic

It was proved that the complexity of square root computation in the Galois field GF(3^s), s = 2^kr, is equal to O(M(2^k)M(r)k + M(r) log₂r) + 2^kkr^1+o(1), where M (n) is the complexity of multiplication of polynomials of degree n over fields of characteristics 3. The complexity of multiplication and division in the field GF(3^s) is equal to O(M(2^k)M(r)) and O(M(2^k)M(r)) + r^1+o(1), respectively. If the basis in the field GF(3^r) is determined by an irreducible binomial over GF(3) or is an optimal normal basis, then the summands 2^kkr^1+o(1) and r^1+o(1) can be omitted. For M(n) one may take n log₂nψ(n) where ψ(n) grows slower than any iteration of the logarithm. If k grow and r is fixed, than all the estimates presented here have the form O_r (M (s) log ₂s) = s (log ₂s)²ψ(s).     

Semigroup graded algebras and graded PI-exponent

Let S be a semigroup. We study the structure of graded-simple S-graded algebras A and the exponential rate PIexp ^S-gr(A):= lim_n→∞ \(\sqrt[n]{{c_n^{S - gr}\left( A \right)}}\) of growth of codimensions c _n ^S-gr (A) of their graded polynomial identities. This is of great interest since such algebras can have non-integer PIexp ^S-gr(A) despite being finite dimensional and associative. In addition, such algebras can have a non-trivial Jacobson radical J(A). All this is in strong contrast with the case when S is a group since in the group case J(A) is trivial, PIexp ^S-gr(A) is always integer and, if the base field is algebraically closed, then PIexp ^S-gr(A) equals dimA. Without any restrictions on the base field F, we classify graded-simple S-graded algebras A for a class of semigroups S which is complementary to the class of groups. We explicitly describe the structure of J(A) showing that J(A) is built up of pieces of a maximal S-graded semisimple subalgebra of A which turns out to be simple. When F is algebraically closed, we get an upper bound for \({\overline {\lim } _{n \to \infty }}\sqrt[n]{{c_n^{S - gr}\left( A \right)}}\). If A/J(A) ≈ M ₂(F) and S is a right zero band, we show that this upper bound is sharp and PIexp ^S-gr(A) indeed exists. In particular, we present an infinite family of graded-simple algebras A with arbitrarily large non-integer PIexp ^S-gr(A).     

The independent neighborhoods process

A triangle T^(r) in an r-uniform hypergraph is a set of r+1 edges such that r of them share a common (r-1)-set of vertices and the last edge contains the remaining vertex from each of the first r edges. Our main result is that the random greedy triangle-free process on n points terminates in an r-uniform hypergraph with independence number O((n log n)^1/r). As a consequence, using recent results on independent sets in hypergraphs, the Ramsey number r(T^(r),K_s^(r)) has order of magnitude s^r/ log s. This answers questions posed in [4, 10] and generalizes the celebrated results of Ajtai–Komlós–Szemerédi [1] and Kim [9] to hypergraphs.
