Systems of orthogonal polynomials arising from the modular j-function

Let be the polynomial whose zeros are the j-invariants of supersingular elliptic curves over . Generalizing a construction of Atkin described in a recent paper by Kaneko and Zagier (Computational Perspectives on Number Theory (Chicago, IL, 1995), AMS/IP 7 (1998) 97-126), we define an inner product on for every . Suppose a system of orthogonal polynomials {P_n,ψ(x)}_n=0^∞ with respect to exists. We prove that if n is sufficiently large and ψ(x)P_n,ψ(x) is p-integral, then over . Further, we obtain an interpretation of these orthogonal polynomials as a p-adic limit of polynomials associated to p-adic modular forms.

Let , B and A_j () be real nonsingular n×n matrices, λ_k () be real numbers. In this paper we present a sufficient condition for the system to be a frame for . This sufficient condition also shows the stability of the system with respect to the perturbation of matrix dilation parameters and the perturbation of translation parameters .

A generalization of Barbashin-Krasovski theorem

The classical criterion of asymptotic stability of the zero solution of equations x^′=f(t,x) is that there exists a function V(t,x), a(‖x‖)?V(t,x)?b(‖x‖) for some a,b∈K, such that for some c∈K. In this paper we prove that if f(t,x) is bounded, is uniformly continuous and bounded, then the condition that can be weakened and replaced by and contains no complete trajectory of , t∈[−T,T], where , uniformly for (t,x)∈[−T,T]×BH.     

Positive integral operators in unbounded domains

We study positive integral operators in with continuous kernel k(x,y). We show that if the operator is compact and Hilbert-Schmidt. If in addition k(x,x)→0 as |x|→∞, k is represented by an absolutely and uniformly convergent bilinear series of uniformly continuous eigenfunctions and is trace class. Replacing the first assumption by the stronger then and the bilinear series converges also in L¹. Sharp norm bounds are obtained and Mercer's theorem is derived as a special case.     

Convergence in mean of some random Fourier series

For a symmetric stable process X(t,ω) with index α∈(1,2], f∈Lp[0,2π], p?α, and , we establish that the random Fourier-Stieltjes (RFS) series converges in the mean to the stochastic integral , where fβ is the fractional integral of order β of the function f for . Further it is proved that the RFS series is Abel summable to . Also we define fractional derivative of the sum of order β for an, An(ω) as above and . We have shown that the formal fractional derivative of the series of order β exists in the sense of mean.     

An application of anisotropic regularization to the existence of weak Pareto minimal points

Given a function f on Rⁿ, we introduce the concept of anisotropic regularization as a generalization of Tikhonov regularization f_ε(x)=f(x)+εx. When f is a continuous -function on Rⁿ and K is a box in Rⁿ, we study the properties of and the limiting behavior of solutions of a regularized box variational inequality problem , with emphasis on the existence of weak Pareto minimal points with respect to K. This work generalizes results of Sznajder and Gowda (1998) proved in the setting of nonlinear complementarity problems.     

On the asymptotic stability of equilibrium

The classical criterion of asymptotic stability of the zero solution of equations x^′=f(t,x) is that there exists a positive definite function V which has infinitesimal upper bound such that is negative definite. In this paper we prove that if is bounded then the condition that is negative definite can be weakened and replaced by that and is negative definite.

Reflexivity and hyperreflexivity of operator spaces

In this paper, we show that if is an n-dimensional subspace of L(V) such that every nonzero transformation of has rank greater than or equal to 2n−1 then is algebraically reflexive. If is an n-dimensional subspace of B(H) such that every nonzero transformation of  has rank greater than or equal to 2n−1 then is hyperreflexive. We also consider how to construct some new hyperreflexive subspaces.

On controlled extensions of functions

For any numerical function we give sufficient conditions for resolving the controlled extension problem for a closed subset A of a normal space X. Namely, if the functions , and satisfy the equality E(f(a),g(a))=h(a), for every a∈A, then we are interested to find the extensions f? and ? of f and g, respectively, such that , for every x∈X. We generalize earlier results concerning E(u,v)=u·v by using the techniques of selections of paraconvex-valued LSC mappings and soft single-valued mappings.     

Mapping properties for oscillatory integrals in d-dimensions

For aj,bj?1, j=1,2,…,d, we prove that the operator maps into itself for , where , and k(x,y)=φ(x,y)eig(x,y), φ(x,y) satisfies (1.2) (e.g. φ(x,y)=|x−y|^iτ,τ real) and the phase g(x,y)=xa⋅yb. We study operators with more general phases and for these operators we require that aj,bj>1, j=1,2,…,d, or al=bl?1 for some l∈{1,2,…,d}.
