Local approximation properties of certain class of linear positive operators via <Emphasis Type="Italic">I</Emphasis>—convergence

In this study, we obtain a local approximation theorems for a certain family of positive linear operators via I—convergence by using the first and the second modulus of continuities and the elements of Lipschitz class functions. We also give an example to show that the classical Korovkin Theory does not work but the theory works in I—convergence sense.      

The Hardy-Littlewood theorem for trigonometric series with generalized monotone coefficients

Earlier we introduced a continuous scale of monotony for sequences (classes M _α, α ≥ 0), where, for example, M ₀ is the set of all nonnegative vanishing sequences, M ₁ is the class of all nonincreasing sequences, tending to zero, etc. In addition, we extended several results obtained for trigonometric series with monotone convex coefficients onto more general classes. The main result of this paper is a generalization of the well-known Hardy—Littlewood theorem for trigonometric series, whose coefficients belong to classes M _α, where α ∈ ( $ \tfrac{1} {2} Earlier we introduced a continuous scale of monotony for sequences (classes M _α, α ≥ 0), where, for example, M ₀ is the set of all nonnegative vanishing sequences, M ₁ is the class of all nonincreasing sequences, tending to zero, etc. In addition, we extended several results obtained for trigonometric series with monotone convex coefficients onto more general classes.

Namely, the following assertion is true. Let α ∈ (, 1), < p < 2, a sequence a ∈ M _α, and . Then the series cos nx converges on (0,2π) to a finite function f(x) and f(x) ∈ L _p (0,2π).

On the number of <Emphasis Type="Italic">B</Emphasis><Subscript>π′</Subscript>-characters in a nilpotent π-block

Broué and Puig set the definition of nilpotent p-blocks, stated the existence of such blocks, and then proved that there is a unique Brauer character in a nilpotent p-block. The present paper, based on the works of Slattery and Robinson, generalizes the above idea to the π-block theory of a π-separable group, defines the nilpotency of a π-block, and proves that there is a unique B _π′-character in a nilpotent π-block.

On Estimates of Factorial Quotients

We consider the factorial quotients (2n − 1)!!/(2n)!! in connection with the Wallis formula n ⁻¹(2n)!!²/(2n − 1)!!² → π. We improve the Wallis inequalities (n + 1/2)⁻¹(2n)!!²/(2n − 1)!!² < π < n ⁻¹(2n)!!²/(2n − 1)!!² for π and obtain new estimates of factorial quotients with error order not worse than 1/n ². __________ Translated from Lietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, Vol. 45, No. 3, pp. 349–358, July–September, 2005.     

Stochastic 2-D Navier—Stokes Equation

   Abstract. In this paper we prove the existence and uniqueness of strong solutions for the stochastic Navier—Stokes equation in bounded and unbounded domains. These solutions are stochastic analogs of the classical Lions—Prodi solutions to the deterministic Navier—Stokes equation. Local monotonicity of the nonlinearity is exploited to obtain the solutions in a given probability space and this significantly improves the earlier techniques for obtaining strong solutions, which depended on pathwise solutions to the Navier—Stokes martingale problem where the probability space is also obtained as a part of the solution.     

Power expansions for the self-similar solutions of the modified Sawada-Kotera equation

The fourth-order ordinary differential equation that defines the self-similar solutions of the Kaup—Kupershmidt and Sawada—Kotera equations is studied. This equation belongs to the class of fourth-order analogues of the Painlevé equations. All the power and non-power asymptotic forms and expansions near points z = 0, z = ∞ and near an arbitrary point z = z ₀ are found by means of power geometry methods. The exponential additions to the solutions of the studied equation are also determined.      

The Moment Problem Associated with the q -Laguerre Polynomials

   Abstract. We consider the indeterminate Stieltjes moment problem associated with the q -Laguerre polynomials. A transformation of the set of solutions, which has all the classical solutions as fixed points, is established and we present a method to construct, for instance, continuous singular solutions. The connection with the moment problem associated with the Stieltjes—Wigert polynomials is studied; we show how to come from q -Laguerre solutions to Stieltjes—Wigert solutions by letting the parameter α —> ∞ , and we explain how to lift a Stieltjes—Wigert solution to a q -Laguerre solution at the level of Pick functions. Based on two generating functions, expressions for the four entire functions from the Nevanlinna parametrization are obtained.     

Model selection for regression on a fixed design

We deal with the problem of estimating some unknown regression function involved in a regression framework with deterministic design points. For this end, we consider some collection of finite dimensional linear spaces (models) and the least-squares estimator built on a data driven selected model among this collection. This data driven choice is performed via the minimization of some penalized model selection criterion that generalizes on Mallows' C _p . We provide non asymptotic risk bounds for the so-defined estimator from which we deduce adaptivity properties. Our results hold under mild moment conditions on the errors. The statement and the use of a new moment inequality for empirical processes is at the heart of the techniques involved in our approach.

The Kato-type spectrum and local spectral theory

Let T ∈ ℒ(X) be a bounded operator on a complex Banach space X. If V is an open subset of the complex plane such that λ-T is of Kato-type for each λ ∈ V, then the induced mapping f(z) ↦ (z-T)f(z) has closed range in the Fréchet space of analytic X-valued functions on V. Since semi-Fredholm operators are of Kato-type, this generalizes a result of Eschmeier on Fredholm operators and leads to a sharper estimate of Nagy’s spectral residuum of T. Our proof is elementary; in particular, we avoid the sheaf model of Eschmeier and Putinar and the theory of coherent analytic sheaves.     

On the Norm of the Fourier—Gegenbauer Projection in Weighted L p Spaces

We extend the results of Pollard [4] and give asymptotic estimates for the norm of the Fourier—Gegenbauer projection operator in the appropriate weighted L _p space. In particular, we settle the question of whether the projection is bounded for p=(2λ+1)/λ and p=(2λ+1)/(λ+1) , where λ is the index for the family of Gegenbauer polynomials under consideration.

On the Bloch Constant for Κ-Quasiconformal Mappings in Several Complex Variables

We study the Bloch constant for Κ-quasiconformal holomorphic mappings of the unit ball B of C ⁿ . The final result we prove in this paper is: If f is a Κ-quasiconformal holomorphic mappig of B into C ⁿ such that det(f′(0)) = 1, then f(B) contains a schlicht ball of radius at least where C _n > 1 is a constant depending on n only, and as n→∞.

Finite-tight sets

We introduce two notions of tightness for a set of measurable functions — the finite-tightness and the Jordan finite-tightness with the aim to extend certain compactness results (as biting lemma or Saadoune-Valadier’s theorem of stable compactness) to the unbounded case. These compactness conditions highlight their utility when we look for some alternatives to Rellich-Kondrachov theorem or relaxed lower semicontinuity of multiple integrals. Finite-tightness locates the great growths of a set of measurable mappings on a finite family of sets of small measure. In the Euclidean case, the Jordan finite-tight sets form a subclass of finite-tight sets for which the finite family of sets of small measure is composed by d-dimensional intervals. The main result affirms that each tight set H ⊆ W ^1,1 for which the set of the gradients ∇H is a Jordan finite-tight set is relatively compact in measure. This result offers very good conditions to use fiber product lemma for obtaining a relaxed lower semicontinuity condition.      

The Value Function of Singularly Perturbed Control Systems

The limit as ɛ→ 0 of the value function of a singularly perturbed optimal control problem is characterized. Under general conditions it is shown that limit value functions exist and solve in a viscosity sense a Hamilton—Jacobi equation. The Hamiltonian of this equation is generated by an infinite horizon optimization on the fast time scale. In particular, the limit Hamiltonian and the limit Hamilton—Jacobi equation are applicable in cases where the reduction of order, namely setting ɛ = 0 , does not yield an optimal behavior.

含有p拉普拉斯算子方程的解的存在性研究

By using the perturbation theories on sums of ranges for nonlinear accretive mappings of Calvert and Gupta (1978), the abstract result on the existence of a solution u ∈ Lp (Ω) to nonlinear equations involving p-Laplacian operator △p, where 2N/N 1 ＜ p ＜ ∞ and N (≥ 1 )denotes the dimension of RN,is studied. The equation discussed and the methods shown in the paper are continuation and complement to the corresponding results of Li and Zhen's previous papers. To obtain the result ,some new techniques are used.     

The structure of ?*-inverse semigroups

The concepts of ℒ*-inverse semigroups and left wreath products of semigroups are introduced. It is shown that the ℒ*-inverse semigroup can be described as the left wreath product of a type A semigroup Γ and a left regular band B together with a mapping which maps the semigroup Γ into the endomorphism semigroup End(B). This result generalizes the structure theorem of Yamada for the left inverse semigroups in the class of regular semigroups. We shall also provide a constructed example for the ℒ*-inverse semigroups by using the left wreath products.     

Reduction of PDEs on Unbounded Domains. Application: Unsteady Water-Waves Problem

Summary. For a certain class of partial differential equations in cylindrical domains, we show that all small time-dependent solutions are described by a reduced system of equations on the real line, which contains nonlocal terms. As an application, we investigate the system describing nonlinear water waves travelling on the free surface of an inviscid fluid. Two-dimensional gravity waves are characterized by the parameter λ , the inverse square of the Froude number. For λ close to the critical value λ ₀ =1 , we obtain a reduced system of four nonlocal equations. We show that the terms of lowest order in μ=λ-1 lead to the Korteweg—de Vries equation for the lowest-order approximation of the free surface.

The following two decomposition theorems are obtained. (1) A function f is α-continuous if and only if f is pre-continuous and αα-continuous, (2) A function f is semi-continuous if and only if f is spr-continuous and αLC-continuous.
