Scale invariant operators and combinatorial expansions

Scale invariance is a property shared by the operational operators xD, Dx and a whole class of linear operators. We give a complete characterization of this class and derive some of the common properties of its members. As an application, we show that a number of classical combinatorial results, such as Boole's additive formula or the Akiyama–Tanigawa transformation, can be derived in this setting.     

Unbounded pseudodifferential calculus on Lie groupoids

We develop an abstract theory of unbounded longitudinal pseudodifferential calculus on smooth groupoids (also called Lie groupoids) with compact basis. We analyze these operators as unbounded operators acting on Hilbert modules over C^∗(G), and we show in particular that elliptic operators are regular. We construct a scale of Sobolev modules which are the abstract analogues of the ordinary Sobolev spaces, and analyze their properties. Furthermore, we show that complex powers of positive elliptic pseudodifferential operators are still pseudodifferential operators in a generalized sense.     

King type modification of q-Bernstein-Schurer operators

Very recently the q-Bernstein-Schurer operators which reproduce only constant function were introduced and studied by C. V. Muraru (2011). Inspired by J. P. King, Positive linear operators which preserve x ² (2003), in this paper we modify q-Bernstein-Schurer operators to King type modification of q-Bernstein-Schurer operators, so that these operators reproduce constant as well as quadratic test functions x ² and study the approximation properties of these operators. We establish a convergence theorem of Korovkin type. We also get some estimations for the rate of convergence of these operators by using modulus of continuity. Furthermore, we give a Voronovskaja-type asymptotic formula for these operators.     

Symmetric Fock space and orthogonal symmetric polynomials associated with the Calogero model

Using a similarity transformation that maps the Calogero model into N decoupled quantum harmonic oscillators, we construct a set of mutually commuting conserved operators of the model and their simultaneous eigenfunctions.The simultaneous eigenfunction is a deformation of the symmetrized number state (bosonic state) and forms an orthogonal basis of the Hilbert (Fock) space of the model. This orthogonal basis is different from the known one that is a variant of the Jack polynomial, i.e., the Hi-Jack polynomial. This fact shows that the conserved operators derived by the similarity transformation and those derived by the Dunkl operator formulation do not commute. Thus we conclude that the Calogero model has two, algebraically inequivalent sets of mutually commuting conserved operators, as is the case with the hydrogen atom. We also confirm the same story for the B_N-Calogero model.     

Kernel identities for van Diejen’s q-difference operators and transformation formulas for multiple basic hypergeometric series

The kernel function of Cauchy type for type BC is defined as a solution of linear q-difference equations. In this paper, we show that this kernel function intertwines the commuting family of van Diejen’s q-difference operators. This result gives rise to a transformation formula for certain multiple basic hypergeometric series of type BC. We also construct a new infinite family of commuting q-difference operators for which the Koornwinder polynomials are joint eigenfunctions.     

On fractional stable processes and sheets: White noise approach

In this paper we construct the β-fractional α-stable processes and sheets as functionals of α-stable white noises by using a transformation induced from fractional integral operators. This white noise approach is shown to be very useful in investigating their distribution and path properties (stationariness of increments, self-similarity, sample continuity, etc.).     

On the rate of approximation by q modified Beta operators

In the present paper we propose the q analogue of the modified Beta operators. We apply q-derivatives to obtain the central moments of the discrete q-Beta operators. A direct result in terms of modulus of continuity for the q operators is also established. We have also used the properties of q integral to establish the recurrence formula for the moments of q analogue of the modified Beta operators. We also establish an asymptotic formula. In the end we have also present the modification of such q operators so as to have better estimate.     

Littlewood�CPaley�CStein type square functions based on Laguerre semigroups

We investigate g-functions based on semigroups related to multi-dimensional Laguerre function expansions of convolution type. We prove that these operators can be viewed as Calderón?CZygmund operators in the sense of the underlying space of homogeneous type, hence their mapping properties follow from the general theory.     

On certain q-analogue of Sz��sz Kantorovich operators

In the present paper we propose q-analogue of the well known Sz??sz-Kantorovich operators. We study local approximation as well as weighted approximation properties of these new operators.     

Transformation operators for the canonical Dirac system

For canonical Dirac systems of differential equations with locally integrable coefficients, we prove the existence of transformation operators and estimate the kernels of these operators. We also give estimates for these kernels for the case in which the coefficients belong to the space L _loc ² . We establish a relationship between the kernel of the transformation operators and the potential matrix.     

Sturm-Liouville operators in the half axis with local perturbations

We give conditions which imply equivalence of the Lebesgue measure with respect to a measure μ generated as an average of spectral measures corresponding to Sturm-Liouville operators in the half axis. We apply this to prove that some spectral properties of these operators hold for large sets of boundary conditions if and only if they hold for large sets of positive local perturbations.     

A temporal database forecasting algebra

Though forecasting methods are used in numerous fields, we have seen no work on providing a general theoretical framework to build forecast operators into temporal databases, producing an algebra that extends the relational algebra. In this paper, we first develop a formal definition of a forecast operator as a function that satisfies a suite of forecast axioms. Based on this definition, we propose three families of forecast operators called deterministic, probabilistic, and possible worlds forecast operators. Additional properties of coherence, orthogonality, monotonicity, and fact preservation are identified that these operators may satisfy (but are not required to). We show how deterministic forecast operators can always be encoded as probabilistic forecast operators, and how both deterministic and probabilistic forecast operators can be expressed as possible worlds forecast operators. Issues related to the complexity of these operators are studied, showing the relative computational tradeoffs of these types of forecast operators. We explore the integration of different forecast operators with standard relational operators in temporal databases—including extensions of the relational algebra for the probabilistic and possible worlds cases—and propose several policies for answering forecast queries. Instances where these different forecast policies are equivalent have been identified, and can form the basis of query optimization in forecasting. These policies are evaluated empirically using a prototype implementation of a forecast query answering system and several forecast operators.     

Bernstein theorems and transformations of correlation measures in statistical physics

We study the class of endomorphisms of the cone of correlation functions generated by probability measures. We consider algebraic properties of the products (·, ?) and the maps K, K ^?1 which establish relationships between the properties of functions on the configuration space and the properties of the corresponding operators (matrices with Boolean indices): F(γ) → F?(γ) = {F(α?β)}α,β?γ. For the operators F?(γ) and F?(γ), we prove conditions which ensure that these operators are positive definite; the conditions are given in terms of complete or absolute monotonicity properties of the function F(γ).     

On order bounded disjointness preserving operators

The paper is aimed at demonstrating that some properties of order bounded operators in vector lattices are just Boolean valued interpretations of elementary properties of order bounded functionals. We present the general machinery and illustrate it with a few new results on order bounded disjointness preserving and n-disjoint operators.     

Qualitative properties of a class of Fleming-Viot operators

We indicate some qualitative properties of Fleming--Viot second order differential operators on the d-dimensional simplex, such as an inductive characterization of its domain and some spectral properties connected with the asymptotic behavior of the generated semigroup. These properties turn out to be very useful in the approximation of the solution of the evolution problem associated with Fleming--Viot operators, which are very important as diffusion models in population genetics.     

Toeplitz operators on Fock-Sobolev spaces with positive measure symbols

We discuss Toeplitz operators on Fock-Sobolev space with positive measure symbols.By FockCarleson measure,we obtain the characterizations for boundedness and compactness of Toeplitz operators.We also give some equivalent conditions of Schatten p-class properties of Toeplitz operators by Berezin transform.     

The Durrmeyer type modification of the q-Baskakov type operators with two parameter α and β

In this paper, we are dealing with q analogue of Durrmeyer type modified the Baskakov operators with two parameter α and β, which introduces a new sequence of positive linear q-integral operators. We show that this sequence is an approximation process in the polynomial weighted space of continuous function defined on the interval [0, ∞). We study moments, weighted approximation properties, the rate of convergence using a weighted modulus of smoothness, asymptotic formula and better error estimation for these operators.     

Spectral theory of Sturm–Liouville difference operators

We present several classes of explicit self-adjoint Sturm–Liouville difference operators with either a non-Hermitian leading coefficient function, or a non-Hermitian potential function, or a non-definite weight function, or a non-self-adjoint boundary condition. These examples are obtained using a general procedure for constructing difference operators realizing discrete Sturm–Liouville problems, and the minimum conditions for such difference operators to be self-adjoint with respect to a natural quadratic form. It is shown that a discrete Sturm–Liouville problem admits a difference operator realization if and only if it does not have all complex numbers as eigenvalues. Spectral properties of self-adjoint Sturm–Liouville difference operators are studied. In particular, several eigenvalue comparison results are proved.     

On Bregman-Type Distances for Convex Functions and Maximally Monotone Operators

Given two point to set operators, one of which is maximally monotone, we introduce a new distance in their graphs. This new concept reduces to the classical Bregman distance when both operators are the gradient of a convex function. We study the properties of this new distance and establish its continuity properties. We derive its formula for some particular cases, including the case in which both operators are linear monotone and continuous. We also characterize all bi-functions D for which there exists a convex function h such that D is the Bregman distance induced by h.
