Derivations On a C∞-ring

The main purpose of this paper is to provide several results on objects lying between differential geometry and algebraic geometry such as C^∞-rings and derivations on a C^∞-ring. A C^∞-ring is defined as a set with operations by C^∞-functions on Euclidean spaces. A derivation on a C^∞-ring is defined in two method, an ?-derivation and a C^∞-derivation. The main result of this paper is to show that any ?-derivation is a C^∞-derivation for some classes of C^∞-rings (Theorems 3.1, 3.2).     

Approximation by Nonlinear Multivariate Sampling Kantorovich Type Operators and Applications to Image Processing

In this article, we study a nonlinear version of the sampling Kantorovich type operators in a multivariate setting and we show applications to image processing. By means of the above operators, we are able to reconstruct continuous and uniformly continuous signals/images (functions). Moreover, we study the modular convergence of these operators in the setting of Orlicz spaces L ^?(? ⁿ ) that allows us to deal the case of not necessarily continuous signals/images. The convergence theorems in L ^p (? ⁿ )-spaces, L ^αlog ^β L(? ⁿ )-spaces and exponential spaces follow as particular cases. Several graphical representations, for the various examples and image processing applications are included.     

Complete positivity,tensor products and C*-nuclearity for inverse limits of C*-algebras

The paper aims at developing a theory of nuclear (in the topological algebraic sense) pro-C^*-algebras (which are inverse limits of C^*-algebras) by investigating completely positive maps and tensor products. By using the structure of matrix algebras over a pro-C^*-algebra, it is shown that a unital continuous linear map between pro-C^*-algebrasA andB is completely positive iff by restriction, it defines a completely positive map between the C^*-algebrasb(A) andb(B) consisting of all bounded elements ofA andB. In the metrizable case,A andB are homeomorphically isomorphic iff they are matricially order isomorphic. The injective pro-C^*-topology α and the projective pro-C^*-topology v on A⊗B are shown to be minimal and maximal pro-C^*-topologies; and α coincides with the topology of biequicontinous convergence iff eitherA orB is abelian. A nuclear pro-C^*-algebraA is one that satisfies, for any pro-C^*-algebra (or a C^*-algebra)B, any of the equivalent requirements; (i) α =v onA ⊗B (ii)A is inverse limit of nuclear C^*-algebras (iii) there is only one admissible pro-C^*-topologyon A⊗B (iv) the bounded partb(A) ofA is a nuclear C⊗-algebra (v) any continuous complete state map A→B^* can be approximated in simple weak^* convergence by certain finite rank complete state maps. This is used to investigate permanence properties of nuclear pro-C^*-algebras pertaining to subalgebras, quotients and projective and inductive limits. A nuclearity criterion for multiplier algebras (in particular, the multiplier algebra of Pedersen ideal of a C^*-algebra) is developed and the connection of this C^*-algebraic nuclearity with Grothendieck’s linear topological nuclearity is examined. A σ-C^*-algebraA is a nuclear space iff it is an inverse limit of finite dimensional C^*-algebras; and if abelian, thenA is isomorphic to the algebra (pointwise operations) of all scalar sequences.     

Divergence L 2-Coercivity Inequalities

This paper derives sharp L ²-coercivity inequalities for the divergence operator on bounded Lipschitz regions in ? ⁿ . They hold for fields in H(div,Ω) that are orthogonal to N(div). The optimal constants in the inequality are defined by a variational principle and are identified as the least eigenvalue of a nonstandard boundary value problem for a linear biharmonic type operator. The dependence of the optimal constant under dilations of the region is described and a generalization that involves weighted surface integrals is also proved. When n = 2, this also yields a similar coercivity result for the curl operator.     

Positive functionals on BP*-algebras

A new class of locally convex algebras, called BP^*-algebras, is introduced. It is shown that this class properly includes MQ^*-algebras which were introduced and studied by the first author andR. Rigelhof [10]. Among other results, it is proved that each positive functional on a BP^*-algebraA is admissible but not necessarily continuous as shown by an example. However, ifA, in addition, is either (i) a Q-algebra, or (ii) has an identity and is barrelled, or (iii)A is endowed with the inductive limit topology, then each positive functional onA is continuous.This work was supported by an N.R.C. Grant.     

Classification of extensions of classifiable -algebras

For a certain class of extensions of C^*-algebras in which B and A belong to classifiable classes of C^*-algebras, we show that the functor which sends to its associated six term exact sequence in K-theory and the positive cones of K₀(B) and K₀(A) is a classification functor. We give two independent applications addressing the classification of a class of C^*-algebras arising from substitutional shift spaces on one hand and of graph algebras on the other. The former application leads to the answer of a question of Carlsen and the first named author concerning the completeness of stabilized Matsumoto algebras as an invariant of flow equivalence. The latter leads to the first classification result for nonsimple graph C^*-algebras.     

Some properties and characterizations for generalized multivariate Pareto distributions

In this paper, several distributional properties and characterization theorems of the generalized multivariate Pareto distributions are studied. It is found that the multivariate Pareto distributions have many mixture properties. They are mixed either by geometric, Weibull, or exponential variables. The multivariate Pareto, MP^(k)(I), MP^(k)(II), and MP^(k)(IV) families have closure property under finite sample minima. The MP^(k)(III) family is closed under both geometric minima and geometric maxima. Through the geometric minima procedure, one characterization theorem for MP^(k)(III) distribution is developed. Moreover, the MP^(k)(III) distribution is proved as the limit multivariate distribution under repeated geometric minimization. Also, a characterization theorem for the homogeneous MP^(k)(IV) distribution via the weighted minima among the ordered coordinates is developed. Finally, the MP^(k)(II) family is shown to have the truncation invariant property.     

Comparison of Two Generalized Trigonometric Integrals

The P ²-integral of James is compared with the T ²-integral. A trigonometric series convergent almost everywhere to a function which is T ²-integrable but not P ²-integrable is constructed.     

The smallness problem for -algebras

Akemann showed that any von Neumann algebra with a weak^* separable dual space has a faithful normal representation on a separable Hilbert space. He posed the question: If a C^*-algebra has a weak^* separable state space, must it have a faithful representation on a separable Hilbert space? Wright solved this question negatively and showed that a unital C^*-algebra has the weak^* separable state space if and only if it has a unital completely positive map, into a type I factor on a separable Hilbert space, whose restriction to the self-adjoint part induces an order isomorphism. He called such a C^*-algebra almost separably representable. We say that a unital C^*-algebra is small if it has a unital complete isometry into a type I factor on a separable Hilbert space. In this paper we show that a unital C^*-algebra is small if and only if the state spaces of all n by n matrix algebras over the C^*-algebra are weak^*-separable. It is natural to ask whether almost separably representable algebras are small or not. We settle this question positively for simple C^*-algebras but the general question remains open.     

Existence and Regularity of Solutions to Model for Liquid Mixture of He-He

Existence and regularity of solutions to model for liquid mixture of ³He-⁴He is considered in this paper. First, it is proved that this system possesses a unique global weak solution in H¹(ω,C×R) by using Galerkin method. Secondly, by using an iteration procedure, regularity estimates for the linear semigroups, it is proved that the model for liquid mixture of ³He-⁴He has a unique solution in H^k(ω,C×R) for all k ≥ 1.     

On the Discrete Poincaré–Friedrichs Inequalities for Nonconforming Approximations of the Sobolev Space H 1

We present a direct proof of the discrete Poincaré–Friedrichs inequalities for a class of nonconforming approximations of the Sobolev space H ¹(Ω), indicate optimal values of the constants in these inequalities, and extend the discrete Friedrichs inequality onto domains only bounded in one direction. We consider a polygonal domain Ω in two or three space dimensions and its shape-regular simplicial triangulation. The nonconforming approximations of H ¹(Ω) consist of functions from H ¹ on each element such that the mean values of their traces on interelement boundaries coincide. The key idea is to extend the proof of the discrete Poincaré–Friedrichs inequalities for piecewise constant functions used in the finite volume method. The results have applications in the analysis of nonconforming numerical methods, such as nonconforming finite element or discontinuous Galerkin methods.

C1,1 regularity for degenerate complex Monge–Ampère equations and geodesic rays

We prove a C^1,1 estimate for solutions of complex Monge–Ampère equations on compact Kähler manifolds with possibly nonempty boundary, in a degenerate cohomology class. This strengthens previous estimates of Phong–Sturm. As applications we deduce the local C^1,1 regularity of geodesic rays in the space of Kähler metrics associated to a test configuration, as well as the local C^1,1 regularity of quasi-psh envelopes in nef and big classes away from the non-Kähler locus.     

L p Error Estimates for Scattered Data Interpolation On Spheres

In this article, working with the sphere 𝕊 ^d embedded in the (d + 1)-dimensional Euclidean space ? ^d+1 as the underlying manifold, we obtain an error estimate for interpolating functions f ∈ H _μ from shifts of a smooth positive definite function defined on 𝕊 ^d , where H _μ is a Sobolev space. We also get an L ^p error estimate for f by using a method of Duchon framework.     

The Banach-Lie algebra of multiplication operators on a JBW-triple

The Banach-Lie algebra L(A) of multiplication operators on the JB^∗-triple A is introduced and it is shown that the hermitian part Lh(A) of L(A) is a unital GM-space the base of the dual cone in the dual GL-space ^∗(Lh(A)) of which is affine isomorphic and weak^∗-homeomorphic to the state space of L(A). In the case in which A is a JBW^∗-triple, it is shown that tripotents u and v in A are orthogonal if and only if the corresponding multiplication operators in the unital GM-space Lh(A) satisfy

Weak exactness for dual operator spaces

We introduce a new tensor product and study the weak^∗ condition C^′, which is also called weak^∗ exactness, for dual operator spaces. Our definition of weak^∗ condition C^′ is equivalent to Kirchberg's notion of weak exactness in the case of von Neumann algebras. We also study the connection of weak^∗ exact W^∗-TROs with their linking von Neumann algebras and study the structure of exact (respectively, nuclear) W^∗-TROs.     

EP modular operators and their products

We study first EP modular operators on Hilbert C^?-modules and then we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the product of two EP modular operators to be EP. These enable us to extend some results of Koliha (2000) [13] for an arbitrary C^?-algebra and the C^?-algebras of compact operators.     

Topological free entropy dimension in unital C-algebras

The notion of topological free entropy dimension of n-tuple of elements in a unital C^∗ algebra was introduced by Voiculescu. In the paper, we compute topological free entropy dimension of one self-adjoint element and topological free orbit dimension of one self-adjoint element in a unital C^∗ algebra. We also calculate the values of topological free entropy dimensions of any families of self-adjoint generators of some unital C^∗ algebras, including irrational rotation C^∗ algebra, UHF algebra, and minimal tensor product of two reduced C^∗ algebras of free groups.     

Equilibrium probability calculations for a discrete-time bulk queue model

Many problems in management science and telecommunications can be solved by the analysis of aD ^X/D^m/1 queueing model. In this paper, we use the zeros, both inside and outside the unit circle, of the denominator of the generating function of the model to obtain an explicit closed-form solution for the equilibrium probabilities of the number of customers in the system. The moments of the number of customers in the queue or in the system are also studied. When there are infinitely many zeros outside the unit circle, we propose an approximation method using polynomials. This method yields correct values for a finite number of the probabilities, the number depending on the degree of the polynomial approximation.     

Geometric interpolation by planar cubic <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> splines

In this paper, geometric interpolation by G ¹ cubic spline is studied. A wide class of sufficient conditions that admit a G ¹ cubic spline interpolant is determined. In particular, convex data as well as data with inflection points are included. The existence requirements are based upon geometric properties of data entirely, and can be easily verified in advance. The algorithm that carries out the verification is added. AMS subject classification (2000)  65D05, 65D07, 65D17
