On the asymptotic and invariantσ-algebras of random walks on locally compact groups

Summary Consider a random walk of law on a locally compact second countable groupG. Let the starting measure be equivalent to the Haar measure and denote byQ the corresponding Markov measure on the space of pathsG . We study the relation between the spacesL (G , ^a ,Q) andL (G , ⁱ ,Q) where ^a and ⁱ stand for the asymptotic and invariant -algebras, respectively. We obtain a factorizationL (G , ^a ,Q) L (G , ⁱ ,Q)L (C) whereC is a cyclic group whose order (finite or infinite) coincides with the period of the Markov shift and is determined by the asymptotic behaviour of the convolution powers ⁿ.     

Growth along a ray of a subharmonic function,having a mass distributed on the negative axis

Let U be a subharmonic function in C with a Riesz mass , distributed on the negative semiaxis without some neighborhood of zero, let and be its order and lower order, and let B(r, U) be the maximum of U(z) for ¦z¦=r. Estimates are obtained for the measure of sets of those values of r 0 for which certain inequalities hold. The following result is typical. LetE = {r:u(re ^l)–cosB<(r,U) > 0}. If < < 1, ¦¦=., then the lower logarithmic density of the set E is at least 1 – /. If < > 1,¦¦ ., then the upper logarithmic density of the set E is at least 1 – /.Translated from Teoriya Funktsii, Funktsional'nyi Analiz i Ikh Prilozheniya, No. 50, pp. 31–38, 1988.     

Sur la répartition des valeurs de la fonction d'Euler

Let (x) denote the number of those integers n with (n) x, where denotes the Euler function. Improving on a well-known estimate of Bateman (1972), we show that (x)-Ax R(x), where A=(2)(3)/(6) and R(x) is essentially of the size of the best available estimate for the remainder term in the prime number theorem.     

Waterman classes and triangular sums of double Fourier series

Let ^a ={nln^a (n+1)}, where a R. The following results are established: For every &fnof ^a BV ((- ]²), the triangular partial sums of its Fourier series are uniformly bounded if a = -1, and converge everywhere if a < -1.For every a>0, there exists &fnof ^a BV ((- ]²) such that the triangular partial sums of its Fourier series are unbounded at the point (0;0).     

A complete asymptotic expansion of the jacobi functions with error bounds

In this paper we give a complete asymptotic expansion of the Jacobi functions ^{(, )} (t) as + . The method we employed to get the complete expansion follows that of Olver in treating similar problems. By using a Gronwall-Bellman type inequality for an improper integral in which the integrand is an unbounded function and contains a parameter, we get an error bound of the asymptotic approximation which is different from that of Olver's.     

Asymptotics of the partial sums of a set of integral transforms

On a Particular Class of Minihypers and Its Applications. I. The Result for General q

This article is the first in a series of three articles that discuss a particular class of minihypers and its applications. Proving that for small and < N, a {v _{+ 1}, v ; N, q}-minihyper consists of a sum of -spaces, we show that the excess points of an s-cover with excess of PG(N, q), (s + 1)|(N + 1), form a sum of s-spaces, and that no maximal partial s-spreads with deficiency of PG(N, q), (s + 1)|(N + 1), exist. The case q square will be studied in greater detail in [7] and further applications of these classification results on this class of minihypers will be published in [8].     

Propriété de stabilité de la fonction extrémale relative

Nous donnons une caractérisation des domaines DX pour lesquels la fonction extrémale relative ^*(,E,D) a la propriété de stabilité pour tout ED, i.e. lim _k^*(,E,D _k )=^*(,E,D), ED. Ensuite, nous étudions la relation entre cette propriété et les enveloppes pluripolaires. Nous concluons par quelques remarques sur la propriété de stabilité lim _k^*(,E _k ,D)=^*(,E,D).     

Adjungierte Funktoren in der Kategorie der p-Bornologischen Räume

In the category p b of p-convex vector spaces and linear maps preserving bounded sets a p-bornological topology will be introduced on the tensor product of two spaces, likewise on the spaces of morphisms Hom(E,F). Thus one gets a pair of adjoint functors from p to p , p being the category of p-bornological spaces and continuous linear maps, and the topologies being introduced will be characterized by extreme properties with respect to the adjoint transformations.

Quasi-coherence of Hardy spaces in several complex variables

In this paper, we prove that the Hardy spaceH ^p (), 1p<, over a strictly pseudoconvex domain in ⁿ with smooth boundary is quasi-coherent. More precisely, we show that Toeplitz tuplesT with suitable symbols onH ^p () have property (). This proof is based on a well known exactness result for the tangential Cauchy-Riemann complex.

On the Embedding of an Affine Space into a Projective Space

Let k, K be fields, and assume that |k| 4 and n, m 2, or |k| = 3 and n 3, m 2. Then, for any embedding of AG(n, k) into PG(m, K), there exists an isomorphism from k into K and an (n+1) × (m+1) matrix B with entries in K such that can be expressed as (x₁,x₂,...,x_n) = [(1,x₁ ,x₂ ,...,x_n )B], where the right-hand side is the equivalence class of (1,x₁ ,x₂ ,...,x_n )B. Moreover, in this expression, is uniquely determined, and B is uniquely determined up to a multiplication of element of K*. Let l 1, and suppose that there exists an embedding of AG(m+l, k) into PG(m, K) which has the above expression. If we put r = dim _k K, then we have r 3 and m > 2 l-1)/(r-2). Conversely, there exists an embedding of AG(l+m, k) into PG(m, K) with the above expression if K is a cyclic extension of k with dim _k K=r 3, and if m 2l/(r-2) with m even or if m 2l/(r-2) +1 with m odd.     

The associativity equation revisited

Summary Consideration of the Associativity Equation,x (y z) = (x y) z, in the case where:I × I I (I a real interval) is continuous and satisfies a cancellation property on both sides, provides a complete characterization of real continuous cancellation semigroups, namely that they are topologically order-isomorphic to addition on some real interval: ( – ,b), ( – ,b], –, +), (a, + ), or [a, + ) — whereb = 0 or –1 anda = 0 or 1. The original proof, however, involves some awkward handling of cases and has defied streamlining for some time. A new proof is given following a simpler approach, devised by Páles and fine-tuned by Craigen.     

Interrelations between the Length, the Structure and the Cardinality of a Chain

Let (Z,) be a chain and let (Z,) be its dual chain. Then the length l(Z) of (Z,) is the least upper bound of all cardinal numbers which can be order-embedded into (Z,) or (Z,). In particular, a chain is said to be short if its length is not greater than the smallest infinite cardinal. In this paper we shall prove that the cardinality |Z| of a chain (Z,) cannot be smaller than l(Z) and not greater than 2 ^l(Z). The inequality |Z|2 ^l(Z) is an immediate consequence of a general theorem which combines the structure of a chain with its length. In case of a short chain it follows that its structure may be rather complicated but that its cardinality cannot be greater than the cardinality of the real line.

The spectral bound of Schrödinger operators

Let V: R ^N [0, ] be a measurable function, and >0 be a parameter. We consider the behaviour of the spectral bound of the operator 1/2–V as a function of . In particular, we give a formula for the limiting value as , in terms of the integrals of V over subsets of R ^N on which the Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions has prescribed values. We also consider the question whether this limiting value is attained for finite .     

Outlines for the computation of the multiplicities of the spectra of orthogonal sums

If A and B are operators in the spaces X and Y, respectively, and if the operator B has many sets , , such that the manifolds p is a polynomial are dense in the space Y, then Here a=(the multiplicity of the spectrum of the operator A)=mindimL: span (AⁿL:n0)}=X. For example, if B=T^–g is a Toeplitz operator in the space H² with antianalytic symbol) and if g (the polynomial convex hull of the spectrum (A)) , then. Conversely, if and, then (under some assumptions on the regularity of the function f we have.
