Theorem of Bartle,Dunford, and Schwartz concerning vector measures

We show the existence, for an arbitrary vector measure: x (where X is a Banach space and gs is a-algebra of subsets of a set S) of a functional x X (X is the conjugate space of X) such that is absolutely continuous with respect to _x, _x (E)=(E)>, E gs.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 7, No. 2, pp. 247–254, February, 1970.     

Quadratic spline interpolation on uniform meshes

The interpolation problem at uniform mesh points of a quadratic splines(x _i)=f _i,i=0, 1,...,N ands(x ₀)=f₀ is considered. It is known that s–f=O(h ³) and s–f=O(h ²), whereh is the step size, and that these orders cannot be improved. Contrary to recently published results we prove that superconvergence cannot occur for any particular point independent off other than mesh points wheres=f by assumption. Best error bounds for some compound formulae approximatingf _i andf _i ⁽³⁾ are also derived.     

A survey of pseudo (v,k, λ)-designs

This work is an attempt to give a complete survey of all known results about pseudo (v, k, )-designs. In doing this, the author hopes to bring more attention to his conjecture given in Section 6; an affirmative answer to this conjecture would settle completely the existence and construction problem for a pseudo (v, k, )-design in terms of the existence of an appropriate (v, k, )-design.     

Convexity of Nonlinear Image of a Small Ball with Applications to Optimization

Let f: XY be a nonlinear differentiable map, X,Y are Hilbert spaces, B(a,r) is a ball in X with a center a and radius r. Suppose f (x) is Lipschitz in B(a,r) with Lipschitz constant L and f (a) is a surjection: f (a)X=Y; this implies the existence of >0 such that f (a)^* yy, yY. Then, if r,/(2L), the image F=f(B(a,)) of the ball B(a,) is convex. This result has numerous applications in optimization and control. First, duality theory holds for nonconvex mathematical programming problems with extra constraint x–a. Special effective algorithms for such optimization problems can be constructed as well. Second, the reachability set for small power control is convex. This leads to various results in optimal control.     

Superstable implicit Runge-Kutta methods for second order initial value problems

Using the well known properties of thes-stage implicit Runge-Kutta methods for first order differential equations, single step methods of arbitrary order can be obtained for the direct integration of the general second order initial value problemsy=f(x, y, y),y(x _o)=y _o,y(x _o)=y _o. These methods when applied to the test equationy+2y+ ² y=0, ,0, +>0, are superstable with the exception of a finite number of isolated values ofh. These methods can be successfully used for solving singular perturbation problems for which f/y and/or f/y are negative and large. Numerical results demonstrate the efficiency of these methods.     

Weight functions on the Kneser graph and the solution of an intersection problem of Sali

LetX, Y be finite sets and suppose thatF is a collection of pairs of sets (F, G),FX,GY satisfying |FF|s, |GG|t and |FF|+|GG|s+t+1 for all (F, G),F, GF. Extending a result of Sali, we determine the maximum ofF.     

Isomorphismen von rechtseiträumen

Spaces called rectangular spaces were introduced in [5] as incidence spaces (P,G) whose set of linesG is equipped with an equivalence relation and whose set of point pairs P² is equipped with a congruence relation , such that a number of compatibility conditions are satisfied. In this paper we consider isomorphisms, automorphisms, and motions on the rectangular spaces treated in [5]. By an isomorphism of two rectangular spaces (P,G, , ) and (P,G, , ) we mean a bijection of the point setP onto P which maps parallel lines onto parallel lines and congruent points onto congruent points. In the following, we consider only rectangular spaces of characteristic 2 or of dimension two. According to [5] these spaces can be embedded into euclidean spaces. In case (P,G, , ) is a finite dimensional rectangular space, then every congruence preserving bijection ofP onto P is in fact an isomorphism from (P,G, , ) onto (P,G, , ) (see (2.4)). We then concern ourselves with the extension of isomorphisms. Our most important result is the theorem which states that any isomorphism of two rectangular spaces can be uniquely extended to an isomorphism of the associated euclidean spaces (see (3.2)). As a consequence the automorphisms of a rectangular space (P,G, , ) are precisely the restrictions (onP) of the automorphisms of the associated euclidean space which fixP as a whole (see (3.3)). Finally we consider the motions of a rectangular space (P,G, , ). By a motion of(P. G,, ) we mean a bijection ofP which maps lines onto lines, preserves parallelism and satisfies the condition((x), (y)) (x,y) for allx, y P. We show that every motion of a rectangular space can be extended to a motion of the associated euclidean space (see (4.2)). Thus the motions of a rectangular space (P,G, , ) are seen to be the restrictions of the motions of the associated euclidean space which mapP into itself (see (4.3)). This yields an explicit representation of the motions of any rectangular plane (see (4.4)).

Über Untergruppen Endlicher Algebraischer Gruppen

Let k be a commutative ring, GG finite affine algebraic k-groups, and HH the dual Hopfalgebras of the affine algebras of G resp. G. The main results of this paper are: (I) If k is semilocal (e.g. k a field) there is an H-linear, HH-colinear, unitary, augmented isomorphism HHH H, where HH is the coalgebra belonging to G/G. (II) If the k-submodule of the fixelements of (HH)^* is isomorphic to k (e.g. k principal or semilocal), then HH is a Frobeniusextension of the second kind.     

The best one-sided approximation of the classes WrHω

In this paper we calculate the upper bounds of the best one-sided approximations, by trigonometric polynomials and splines of minimal defect in the metric of the space L, of the classes W^rH (r = 2, 4, 6, ...) of all 2-periodic functions f(x) that are continuous together with their r-th derivative f^r(x) and such that for any points x and x we have ¦f ^r (x) f^r (x) ¦ (x–x¦), where (t) is a modulus of continuity that is convex upwards.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 21, No. 3, 313–327, March, 1977.     

Über konvergente Zerlegungen von Matrizen

LetA, M, N ben × n real matrices, letA=M–N, letA andM be nonsingular. LetMy0 implyNy0 (where the prime denotes the transpose). ThenAy0 impliesNy0 if and only if the spectral radius (M ^–1 N) ofM ^–1 N is less than one. This complements a result of Mangasarian, given in [1]. The same conclusions are true ifA, M, andN are replaced byA, M, andN respectively. The proof given here does not make use of the Perron-Frobenius theorem.

Über die relativistische Elektronenoptik elektrostatis cher Beschleuniger

Summary Relativistic and nonrelativistic data for the coaxial two-cylinder electrostatic electron-lens are compared. Values of the potential along the axis were measured on a resistance network analogue, whilst trajectories were calculated on a high speed digital computer.IndexR indicating relativistic values, andN non-relativistic ones, quotientsF _R/F_N of the focal point coordinates (image sided),f _R/f_N of the focal length (image sided) and differences of the principal plane coordinates (H _R–H _N)/R (object sided) and (H _R–H _N)/R (image sided) are represented graphically as functions of the imagespace potential andU. The gap between the cylinders was in all cases 0,8R (R radius of the cylinders).U being the potential on the object side, andU on the image side, =U/U was varied from 0,1 to 0,966 andU from 0 to 2,000 kV; in the relativistic case a maximal departure of about 20% from the nonrelativistic values was found for focal length. A ten-lens accelerator of 1,5 MeV overall tension has been calculated both ways.     

Parties d'ensembles B-normaux

For a given subset A of the set R of real numbers, we defined M(A) as the infimum of all the lengths of the finite intervals I such that there exists a sequence of real numbers in I such that A is the associated normal set B(). We prove that if A is a subset of A, such that all the multiples k.a' belongs to A (for each non zero integer k and each element a of A), then M(A) is less or equal to 2.M(A). Thus the family of the subsets A such that M(A) is finite is closed under intersection and finite union.     

1-Homogeneous Graphs with Cocktail Party μ-Graphs

Let be a graph with diameter d 2. Recall is 1-homogeneous (in the sense of Nomura) whenever for every edge xy of the distance partition{{z V() | (z, y) = i, (x, z) = j} | 0 i, j d}is equitable and its parameters do not depend on the edge xy. Let be 1-homogeneous. Then is distance-regular and also locally strongly regular with parameters (v,k,,), where v = k, k = a ₁, (v – k – 1) = k(k – 1 – ) and c ₂ + 1, since a -graph is a regular graph with valency . If c ₂ = + 1 and c ₂ 1, then is a Terwilliger graph, i.e., all the -graphs of are complete. In [11] we classified the Terwilliger 1-homogeneous graphs with c ₂ 2 and obtained that there are only three such examples. In this article we consider the case c ₂ = + 2 3, i.e., the case when the -graphs of are the Cocktail Party graphs, and obtain that either = 0, = 2 or is one of the following graphs: (i) a Johnson graph J(2m, m) with m 2, (ii) a folded Johnson graph J¯(4m, 2m) with m 3, (iii) a halved m-cube with m 4, (iv) a folded halved (2m)-cube with m 5, (v) a Cocktail Party graph K _{m × 2} with m 3, (vi) the Schläfli graph, (vii) the Gosset graph.     

On the equation of similar profiles

By the additional conditionf>0 on (0, ) or, alternately 0<1, the uniqueness of the solution is demonstrated.If=1,<0, arbitrary the existence of solutions for which –1<f<0 in some initial interval (0,t) and satisfying generallyf>1 is established. In both problems, bounds forf (0) and qualitative behavior of the solutions are shown.

Finite Extensions of Topogenities

Let X = Y Z, Y Z = Ø, < be a topogenity on Y, a topology on X. A (<, )-extension is a topogenity < on X such that < ¦Y = <, (<) = . We establish some properties of (<, )-extensions and construct all of them in the case of a finite Z.     

On the Projections of Multivalued Maps

This paper considers analogues of the Helmholtz projections of the set of selections of a piecewise smooth multivalued map , n2. It is shown that, for mn–1 (m=1), the closure of the projection of on the subspace of gradient fields (solenoidal vector fields) is a convex set. For the general case, there are given point-wise conditions on the values of the map which ensure that the closure of the projection of contains the zero element. Possible applications to optimal control problems are discussed.     

A Note on a Boundary Value Problem

In this note, we prove that, for Robins boundary value problem, a unique solution exists if f_x(t, x, x), f_x(t, x, x), (t), and (t) are continuous, and f_x -(t), f_x -(t), 4(t) ² + ²(t) ++ 2(t), and 4(t) ² + ²(t) + 2(t).AMS Subject Classification (2000) 34B15

Hasse-Witt matrices of Fermat curves

Let m be an integer with m3. Let K and K be perfect fields of characteristic p and p such that (p,m)=1 and (p,m)=1, respectively. Moreover let A and A be algebraic function fields over K and K defined by x^m+y^m=a(0, ak) and x^m+y^m=a(a0 ak), respectively. Put g=(m–1)(m–2)/2. Denote by M(K,p,a) and M(K,p,a) the Hasse-Witt matrices of A and A with respect to the canonical bases of holomorphic differentials. Then we show that if p+p0(mod.m) then rank M(K,p,a)+rank M(K,p,a)=g and if pp1 (mod.m) then rank M(K,p,a)=rank M(K,p,a).     

Some Properties of Finite Morphisms on Double Points

For a finite morphism f : X Y of smooth varieties such that f maps X birationally onto X=f(X), the local equations of f are obtained at the double points which are not triple. If C is the conductor of X over X, and are the subschemes defined by C, then D and are shown to be complete intersections at these points, provided that C has the expected codimension. This leads one to determine the depth of local rings of X at these double points. On the other hand, when C is reduced in X, it is proved that X is weakly normal at these points, and some global results are given. For the case of affine spaces, the local equations of X at these points are computed.
