On a nontraditional method of approximation

We study the approximation of functions f(z) that are analytic in a neighborhood of zero by finite sums of the form H _n (z) = H _n (h, f, {λ _k }; z) = Σ _k=1 ⁿ λ _k h(λ _k z), where h is a fixed function that is analytic in the unit disk |z| < 1 and the numbers λ _k (which depend on h, f, and n) are calculated by a certain algorithm. An exact value of the radius of the convergence H _n (z) → f(z), n → ∞, and an order-sharp estimate for the rate of this convergence are obtained; an application to numerical analysis is given.     

A unified approach for univalent functions with negative coefficients using the Hadamard product

For given analytic functions ϕ(z) = z + Σ _n=2^∞ λ _n z ⁿ , Ψ(z) = z + Σ _n=2^∞ μ with λ _n ≥ 0, μ _n ≥ 0, and λ _n ≥ μ _n and for α, β (0≤α<1, 0<β≤1), let E(φ,ψ; α, β) be of analytic functions ƒ(z) = z + Σ _n=2^∞ a _n z ⁿ in U such that f(z)*ψ(z)≠0 and

Properties of generalised juxtapolynomials

GivenF(z),f ₁(z), ..,f _n(z) defined on a finite point setE, and givenB — the set of generalised polynomials Σ _k ^=1/n a _kf_k(z) — the definition of a juxtapolynomial is extended in the following manner: for a fixedλ(0<λ≦1),f(z) εB is called a generalizedλ-weak juxtapolynomial toF(z) onE if and only if there exists nog(z) εB for whichg(z)=F(z) wheneverf(z)=F(z) and |g(z)−F(z) |<λ|f(z)−F(z)| wheneverf(z)≠F(z). The properties of suchf(z) are investigated with particular attention given to the real case. This note is an extension of a part of the author’s M.Sc. Thesis under the supervision of Prof. B. Grünbaum to whom the author wishes to express his sincerest appreciation. The author also wishes to thank Dr. J. Lindenstrauss for his valuable remarks in the preparation of this paper.     

Oscillations of Cusp Form Coefficients Over Primes

Let f(z)=∑ _n=1^∞ λ _f (n)n ^(κ−1)/2 e(nz) be a holomorphic cusp form of weight κ for the full modular group SL ₂(ℤ). In this paper we study the cancellation of the coefficients λ _f (n) over primes in exponential sums.     

On the growth of functions represented by Dirichlet series with complex coefficients on the real axis

We establish conditions under which, for a Dirichlet series F(z) = Σ _{n = 1} ^∞ d _n exp(λ _n z), the inequality ⋎F(x)⋎≤y(x),x≥x _o, implies the relation Σ _{n = 1} ^∞ |d _n exp(λ _n z)| ⪯ γ((1 + o(1))x) as x→+∞, where γ is a nondecreasing function on (−∞,+∞).

P 3-factorization of complete multipartite graphs

In this note it is shown that a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a P3-factorizatlon of complete multipartite graph λK, is (1) m≥3, (2) mn≡0(mod 3) and (3)λ(m-1)n≡0(mod 4).     

Normal Families and Uniqueness of Entire Functions and Their Derivatives

Let f be a nonconstant entire function; let k ≥ 2 be a positive integer; and let a be a nonzero complex number. If f（z） = a→f′（z） = a, and f′（z） = a →f^（k）（z） = a, then either f = Ce^λz ＋ a or f = Ce^λz ＋ a（λ - 1）/）λ, where C and ）, are nonzero constants with λ^k-1 = 1. The proof is based on the Wiman-Vlairon theory and the theory of normal families in an essential way.     

A coefficient inequality for Bloch functions with applications to uniformly locally univalent functions

We give a Fekete-Szeg? type inequality for an analytic function on the unit disk with Bloch seminorm ≤1. As an application of it, we derive a sharp inequality for the third coefficient of a uniformly locally univalent function f(z) = z + a ₂ z ² + a ₃ z ³ + ⋯ on the unit disk with pre-Schwarzian norm ≤λ for a given λ > 0.     

Quelques théorèmes sur la structure complexe

We prove the following result: If the function Max (log|ω -f ₁(z)|, ..., log|ω -f _k(z)|) is plurisubharmonic in the open setD×ℂ (D open of ℂ ⁿ ), thenf ₁,...,f _k are analytic functions iff ₁,...,f _k are continuous functions onD(k≥2). We prove also some other results.     

On the order of growth of solutions of algebraic differential equations

Assume thatf is an integer transcendental solution of the differential equationP _n (z, f, f′)=P _n−1(z, f, f′, ... f ^(p)), whereP _n andP _n−1 are polynomials in all variables, the degree ofP _n with respect tof andf′ is equal ton, and the degree ofP _n−1 with respect tof, f′, ... f ^(p) is at mostn−1. We prove that the order ρ of growth off satisfies the relation 1/2≤ρ<∞. We also prove that if ρ=1/2, then, for a certain real ν, in the domain {z: ν<argz<ν+2π}/E _*, whereE _* is a certain set of disks with finite sum of radii, the estimate lnf(z)=z ^1/2 (β+o(1)), β∈C, holds forz=re ^iϕ,r≥r(ϕ)≥0. Furthermore, on the ray {z: argz=ν}, the following relation is true: ln‖f(re ^iν)‖=o(r ^1/2),r→+∞,r>0, , where Δ is a certain set on the semiaxisr>0 with mes Δ<∞. “L'vivs'ka Politekhnika” University, Lvov.

Topology of spaces of hyperbolic polynomials and combinatorics of resonances

In this paper we study the topology of the strata, indexed by number partitions λ, in the natural stratification of the space of monic hyperbolic polynomials of degreen. We prove stabilization theorems for removing an independent block or an independent relation in λ. We also prove contractibility of the ‘one-point compactifications of the strata indexed by a large class of number partitions, including λ=(k ^m , 1 ^r ), form≥2. Furthermore, we study the maps between the homology groups of the strata, induced by imposing additional relations (resonances) on the number partition λ, or by merging some of the blocks of λ.     

Anharmonic Oscillators in the Complex Plane, $\boldsymbol{\mathcal{PT}}$-symmetry,and Real Eigenvalues

For integers m ≥ 3 and 1 ≤ ℓ ≤ m − 1, we study the eigenvalue problems − u ^″(z) + [( − 1)^ℓ(iz) ^m  − P(iz)]u(z) = λu(z) with the boundary conditions that u(z) decays to zero as z tends to infinity along the rays argz=-\fracp2±\frac(l+1)pm+2\arg z=-\frac{\pi}{2}\pm \frac{(\ell+1)\pi}{m+2} in the complex plane, where P is a polynomial of degree at most m − 1. We provide asymptotic expansions of the eigenvalues λ _n . Then we show that if the eigenvalue problem is PT\mathcal{PT}-symmetric, then the eigenvalues are all real and positive with at most finitely many exceptions. Moreover, we show that when gcd(m,l)=1\gcd(m,\ell)=1, the eigenvalue problem has infinitely many real eigenvalues if and only if one of its translations or itself is PT\mathcal{PT}-symmetric. Also, we will prove some other interesting direct and inverse spectral results.     

Multiplicative isometries on the Smirnov class

We show that T is a surjective multiplicative (but not necessarily linear) isometry from the Smirnov class on the open unit disk, the ball, or the polydisk onto itself, if and only if there exists a holomorphic automorphism Φ such that T(f)=f ○ Φ for every class element f or T(f) = [`(f<sup>°</sup> [`(j)] )]\overline {f^\circ \bar \varphi } for every class element f, where the automorphism Φ is a unitary transformation in the case of the ball and Φ(z ₁, ..., z _n ) = (l₁ z_i1 ,...,l_n z_in )(\lambda _1 z_{i_1 } ,...,\lambda _n z_{i_n } ) for |λ _j | = 1, 1 ≤ j ≤ n, and (i ₁; ..., i _n )is some permutation of the integers from 1through n in the case of the n-dimensional polydisk.     

Comparison theorems for the volume of a complex submanifold of a Kaehler manifold

LetM be a Kaehler manifold of real dimension 2n with holomorphic sectional curvatureK _H≥4λ and antiholomorphic Ricci curvatureρ _A≥(2n−2)λ, andP is a complex hypersurface. We give a bound for the quotient (volume ofP)/(volume ofM) and prove that this bound is attained if and only ifP=C P ⁿ⁻¹(λ) andM=C P ⁿ(λ). Moreover, we give some results on the volume of of tubes aboutP inM. Work partially supported by a DGICYT Grant No. PS87-0115-CO3-01.     

Three-term asymptotics for the boundary layers of semilinear elliptic eigenvalue problems

We consider the nonlinear eigenvalue problem −Δu=λ f(u) in Ω u=0 on ∂Ω, where Ω is a ball or an annulus in R^N (N ≥ 2) and λ > 0 is a parameter. It is known that if λ >> 1, then the corresponding positive solution u_λ develops boundary layers under some conditions on f. We establish the asymptotic formulas for the slope of the boundary layers of u_λ with the exact second term and the ‘optimal’ estimate of the third term.     

Completeness of the system {z^λn} in L^2[B,α0]

Let B be an unbounded domain located outside an angle domain with vertex at the origin, A ={λn}（n = 1,2,...） be a sequence of complex numbers satisfying sup ｜ arg（λn）｜ 〈 α 〈 π/2 and denote by M（∧） = {z^λ, λ ∈ ∧} the corresponding system of functions z^λ（λ∈∧）. Let α0（z） be a weight function defined on B. We obtain a completeness theorem for the system M（∧） in the Hilbert space L^2 [B, α0].     

On the iteration of holomorphic self-maps of ℂ*

Letf be a holomorphic self-map of the punctured plane ℂ^*=ℂ\{0} with essentially singular points 0 and ∞. In this note, we discuss the setsI ₀(f)={z ∈ ℂ^*:f ⁿ (z) → 0,n → ∞} andI _∞(f)={z ∈ ℂ^*:f ⁿ (z) → 0,n → ∞}. We try to find the relation betweenI ₀(f),I _∞(t) andJ(f). It is proved that both the boundary ofI ₀(f) and the boundary ofI _∞)f) equal toJ(f),I ₀(f) ∩J(f) ≠ θ andI _∞(f) ∩J(f) ≠ θ. As a consequence of these results, we find bothI ₀(f) andI _∞(f) are not doubly-bounded. Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China     

On the solutions of the translation equation in rings of formal power series

We study in this paper solutions of the translation equation in rings of formal power series K[X] where K ∈R, C (so called one-parameter groups or flows), and even, more generally, homomorphisms Ф from an abelian group (G, +) into the group Г(K) of invertible power series in K[X]. This problem can equivalently be formulated as the question of constructing homomorphisms Ф from (G, +) into the differential group Г¹∞ describing the chain rules of higher order of C∞ functions with fixed point 0. In this paper we present the general form of these homomorphisms Ф : G → Г(K) (or L¹∞),Ф = (f_n ⁿ≤1,forwhich f₁ = l, f₂ = ... = f_p+l =0,f_p+2 ≠ 0 for fixed, but arbitrary p ≤ 0 (see Theorem 5, Corollary 6 and Theorem 6). This representation uses a sequence (w _n ^p )_n≥p+2 of universal polynomials in f_p+2 and a sequence of parameters, which determines the individual one-parameter group. Instead of (w _n ^p )_n≥p+2 we may also use another sequence (L _n ^p )_n≥p+2 of universal polynomials, and we describe the connection between these forms of the solutions.     

Oscillations of coefficients of primitive cusp forms over some special sequences

Let λ _f (n) be the Fourier coefficient of a Hecke primitive eigencuspform f(z) of even integral weight k for the full modular group. In this paper we study the cancelation of the function λ _f (n) over some special sequences. This work is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 10701048).     

On the sets of branch points of mappings more general than quasiregular

It is shown that if a point x ₀ ∊ ℝ ⁿ , n ≥ 3, is an essential isolated singularity of an open discrete Q-mapping f : D → [`(\mathbb R<sup>n</sup>)] \overline {\mathbb {R}^n} , B <sub>f</sub> is the set of branch points of f in D; and a point z <sub>0</sub> ∊ [`(\mathbb Rⁿ)] \overline {\mathbb {R}^n} is an asymptotic limit of f at the point x ₀; then, for any neighborhood U containing the point x ₀; the point z ₀ ∊ [`(f( B<sub>f</sub> ?U ))] \overline {f\left( {B_f \cap U} \right)} provided that the function Q has either a finite mean oscillation at the point x <sub>0</sub> or a logarithmic singularity whose order does not exceed n − 1: Moreover, for n ≥ 2; under the indicated conditions imposed on the function Q; every point of the set [`(\mathbb Rⁿ)] \overline {\mathbb {R}^n} \ f(D) is an asymptotic limit of f at the point x ₀. For n ≥ 3, the following relation is true: [`(\mathbbR<sup>n</sup> )] \f( D ) ì [`(f B_f )] \overline {\mathbb{R}^n } \backslash f\left( D \right) \subset \overline {f\,B_f } . In addition, if ￥ ? f( D ) \infty \notin f\left( D \right) , then the set f B _f is infinite and x₀ ? [`(B_f )] x_0 \in \overline {B_f } .
