Diffraction of light by two superposed parallel ultrasonic waves,having arbitrary frequencies. General symmetry properties; method of solution by series expansion

In this study about the diffraction of light by superposed parallel ultrasonics, with frequency ration ₁:n ₂, we deduce a general symmetry property for the intensities of the diffraction pattern: if the intensities of the ordersn and ?n are equal the phase-difference must be of the form:

$$\delta = \frac{{n_1 - n_2 }}{{n_1 }} \begin{array}{*{20}c} \pi \\ 2 \\ \end{array} + p \frac{\pi }{{n_1 }}$$     

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic order of some fibonomial coefficients whose entries are powers of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>

Let (F _n ) _n≥0 be the Fibonacci sequence. For 1 ≤ k ≤ m, the Fibonomial coefficient is defined as

$${\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} m \\ k \end{array}} \right]_F} = \frac{{{F_{m - k + 1}} \cdots {F_{m - 1}}{F_m}}}{{{F_1} \cdots {F_k}}}$$

. In 2013, Marques, Sellers and Trojovský proved that if p is a prime number such that p ≡ ±2 (mod 5), then \(p{\left| {\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]} \right._F}\) for all integers a ≥ 1. In 2015, Marques and Trojovský worked on the p-adic order of \({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_F}\) for all a ≥ 1 when p ≠ 5. In this paper, we shall provide the exact p-adic order of \({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_F}\) for all integers a, b ≥ 1 and for all prime number p.

     

On a Congruence Involving Generalized Fibonomial Coefficients

Let (F_n)_n≥0 be the Fibonacci sequence. For 1 ≤ k ≤ m, the Fibonomial coefficient is defined as

$${\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} n \\ k \end{array}} \right]_F} = \frac{{{F_{n - k + 1}} \cdots {F_{n - 1}}{F_n}}}{{{F_1} \cdots {F_k}}}$$

. In 2013, Marques, Sellers and Trojovský proved that if p is a prime number such that p ≡ ±1 (mod 5), then p?\({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_F}\) for all integers a ≥ 1. In 2010, in particular, Kilic generalized the Fibonomial coefficients for

$${\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} n \\ k \end{array}} \right]_{F,m}} = \frac{{{F_{\left( {n - k + 1} \right)m}} \cdots {F_{\left( {n - 1} \right)m}}{F_{nm}}}}{{{F_m} \cdots {F_{km}}}}$$

. In this note, we generalize Marques, Sellers and Trojovský result to prove, in particular, that if p ≡ ±1 (mod 5), then \({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_{F,m}} \equiv 1\) (mod p), for all a ≥ 0 and m ≥ 1.

     

Hrmander Type Theorem for Fourier Multipliers with Optimal Smoothness on Hardy Spaces of Arbitrary Number of Parameters

The main purpose of this paper is to establish the Hormander-Mihlin type theorem for Fourier multipliers with optimal smoothness on k-parameter Hardy spaces for k≥ 3 using the multiparameter Littlewood-Paley theory. For the sake of convenience and simplicity, we only consider the case k = 3, and the method works for all the cases k≥ 3:■where x =(x_1,x_2,x_3)∈R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3) and ξ =(ξ_1,ξ_2,ξ_3)∈R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3). One of our main results is the following:Assume that m(ξ) is a function on R~(n_1+n_2+n_3) satisfying ■ with s_i n_i(1/p-1/2) for 1≤i≤3. Then T_m is bounded from H~p(R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3) to H~p(R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3)for all 0 p≤1 and ■ Moreover, the smoothness assumption on s_i for 1≤i≤3 is optimal. Here we have used the notations m_(j,k,l)(ξ)=m(2~jξ_1,2~kξ_2,2~lξ_3)Ψ(ξ_1)Ψ(ξ_2)Ψ(ξ_3) and Ψ(ξ_i) is a suitable cut-off function on R~(n_i) for1≤i≤3, and W~(s_1,s_2,s_3) is a three-parameter Sobolev space on R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)× R~(n_3).Because the Fefferman criterion breaks down in three parameters or more, we consider the L~p boundedness of the Littlewood-Paley square function of T_mf to establish its boundedness on the multi-parameter Hardy spaces.     

Boundary value problems for complete quasi-parabolic differential equations of odd order with variable domains of operators

In the space H, the maximally accretive operators A ₀(t) and the symmetric operators A _s (t), s > 0, are approximated by smooth maximally dissipative operators B(t) in such a way that

Markoff–Lagrange spectrum and extremal numbers

Let \( \gamma = \frac{1}{2}\left( {1 + \sqrt {5} } \right) \) denote the golden ratio. H. Davenport and W. M. Schmidt showed in 1969 that, for each non-quadratic irrational real number ξ, there exists a constant c > 0 with the property that, for arbitrarily large values of X, the inequalities\( \left| {{x_0}} \right| \leqslant X,\,\,\,\left| {{x_0}\xi - {x_1}} \right| \leqslant c{X^{{{{ - 1}} \left/ {\gamma } \right.}}}\,\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,\,\left| {{x_0}{\xi^2} - {x_2}} \right| \leqslant c{X^{{{{ - 1}} \left/ {\gamma } \right.}}} \)admit no non-zero solution \( \left( {{x_0},{x_1},{x_2}} \right) \in {\mathbb{Z}^3} \). Their result is best possible in the sense that, conversely, there are countably many non-quadratic irrational real numbers ξ such that, for a larger value of c, the same inequalities admit a non-zero integer solution for each X ≥ 1. Such extremal numbers are transcendental and their set is stable under the action of \( {\text{G}}{{\text{L}}_2}\left( \mathbb{Z} \right) \) on \( \mathbb{R}\backslash \mathbb{Q} \) by linear fractional transformations. In this paper, it is shown that there exist extremal numbers ξ for which the Lagrange constant ν(ξ) = liminf _q→∞ q||qξ|| is \( \frac{1}{3} \), the largest possible value for a non-quadratic number, and that there is a natural bijection between the \( {\text{G}}{{\text{L}}_2}\left( \mathbb{Z} \right) \)-equivalence classes of such numbers and the non-trivial solutions of Markoff’s equation.     

On some new identities for the Fibonomial coefficients

Let F _n be the nth Fibonacci number. The Fibonomial coefficients \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ k \\ \end{array} } \right]_F\) are defined for n ≥ k > 0 as follows $$\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ k \\ \end{array} } \right]_F = \frac{{F_n F_{n - 1} \cdots F_{n - k + 1} }} {{F_1 F_2 \cdots F_k }},$$ with \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ 0 \\ \end{array} } \right]_F = 1\) and \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ k \\ \end{array} } \right]_F = 0\) . In this paper, we shall provide several identities among Fibonomial coefficients. In particular, we prove that $$\sum\limits_{j = 0}^{4l + 1} {\operatorname{sgn} (2l - j)\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {4l + 1} \\ j \\ \end{array} } \right]_F F_{n - j} = \frac{{F_{2l - 1} }} {{F_{4l + 1} }}\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {4l + 1} \\ {2l} \\ \end{array} } \right]_F F_{n - 4l - 1} ,}$$ holds for all non-negative integers n and l.     

On a Composition Preserving Inequalities between Polynomials

The Schur-Szegö composition of two polynomials \(f\left( z \right) = \sum\nolimits_{j = 0}^n {{A_j}{z^j}} \) and \(g\left( z \right) = \sum\nolimits_{j = 0}^n {{B_j}{z^j}} \), both of degree n, is defined by \(f * g\left( z \right) = \sum\nolimits_{j = 0}^n {{A_j}{B_j}{{\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}n \\ j \end{array}} \right)}^{ - 1}}{z^j}} \). In this paper, we estimate the minimum and the maximum of the modulus of f * g(z) on z = 1 and thereby obtain results analogues to Bernstein type inequalities for polynomials.     

Seas of squares with sizes from a Π<Stack><Subscript>1</Subscript><Superscript>0</Superscript></Stack> set

A family of sets is union-free if there are no three distinct sets in the family such that the union of two of the sets is equal to the third set. Kleitman proved that every union-free family has size at most (1+o(1))( _n/2 ⁿ ). Later, Burosch–Demetrovics–Katona–Kleitman–Sapozhenko asked for the number α(n) of such families, and they proved that \({2^{\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} n \\ {n/2} \end{array}} \right)}} \leqslant \alpha \left( n \right) \leqslant {2^{2\sqrt 2 \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} n \\ {n/2} \end{array}} \right)\left( {1 + o\left( 1 \right)} \right)}}\) They conjectured that the constant \(2\sqrt 2 \) can be removed in the exponent of the right-hand side. We prove their conjecture by formulating a new container-type theorem for rooted hypergraphs.     

On the normalizing multiplier of the generalized Jackson kernel

We consider the question of evaluating the normalizing multiplier $$\gamma _{n,k} = \frac{1}{\pi }\int_{ - \pi }^\pi {\left( {\frac{{sin\tfrac{{nt}}{2}}}{{sin\tfrac{t}{2}}}} \right)^{2k} dt} $$ for the generalized Jackson kernel J _n,k (t). We obtain the explicit formula $$\gamma _{n,k} = 2\sum\limits_{p = 0}^{\left[ {k - \tfrac{k}{n}} \right]} {( - 1)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {2k} \\ p \\ \end{array} } \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {k(n + 1) - np - 1} \\ {k(n - 1) - np} \\ \end{array} } \right)} $$ and the representation $$\gamma _{n,k} = \sqrt {\frac{{24}}{\pi }} \cdot \frac{{(n - 1)^{2k - 1} }}{{\sqrt {2k - 1} }}\left[ {1\frac{1}{8} \cdot \frac{1}{{2k - 1}} + \omega (n,k)} \right],$$ , where $$\left| {\omega (n,k)} \right| < \frac{4}{{(2k - 1)\sqrt {ln(2k - 1)} }} + \sqrt {12\pi } \cdot \frac{{k^{\tfrac{3}{2}} }}{{n - 1}}\left( {1 + \frac{1}{{n - 1}}} \right)^{2k - 2} .$$ .     

Quantitative properties of ground-states to an <Emphasis Type="Italic">M</Emphasis>-coupled system with critical exponent in ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis></Superscript>

In this paper, we consider the ground-states of the following M-coupled system:

$$\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - \Delta {u_i} = \sum\limits_{j = 1}^M {{k_{ij}}\frac{{2{q_{ij}}}}{{2*}}{{\left| {{u_j}} \right|}^{{p_{ij}}}}{{\left| {{u_i}} \right|}^{{q_{ij}} - {2_{{u_i}}}}},x \in {\mathbb{R}^N},} } \\{{u_i} \in {D^{1,2}}\left( {{\mathbb{R}^N}} \right),i = 1,2, \ldots ,M,}\end{array}} \right.$$

where \(p_{ij} + q_{ij} = 2*: = \frac{{2N}}{{N - 2}}(N \geqslant 3)\). We prove the existence of ground-states to the M-coupled system. At the same time, we not only give out the characterization of the ground-states, but also study the number of the ground-states, containing the positive ground-states and the semi-trivial ground-states, which may be the first result studying the number of not only positive ground-states but also semi-trivial ground-states.

     

Face numbers and the fundamental group

We resolve a conjecture of Kalai asserting that the g ₂-number of any (finite) simplicial complex Δ that represents a normal pseudomanifold of dimension d ≥ 3 is at least as large as \(\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {d + 2} \\ 2 \end{array}} \right)m\left( \Delta \right)\), where m(Δ) denotes the minimum number of generators of the fundamental group of Δ. Furthermore, we prove that a weaker bound, \({h_2}\left( \Delta \right) \geqslant \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {d + 1} \\ 2 \end{array}} \right)m\left( \Delta \right)\), applies to any d-dimensional pure simplicial poset Δ all of whose faces of co-dimension ≥ 2 have connected links. This generalizes a result of Klee. Finally, for a pure relative simplicial poset Ψ all of whose vertex links satisfy Serre’s condition (S _r ), we establish lower bounds on h ₁(Ψ),...,h _r (Ψ) in terms of the μ-numbers introduced by Bagchi and Datta.     

An existence principle for solutions to a singular boundary-value problems

The singular boundary-value problem

$ \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{u^{\prime\prime}} + g\left( {t,u,{u^{\prime}}} \right) = 0\quad {\text{for}}\quad t \in \left( {0,1} \right),} \hfill \\ {u(0) = u(1) = 0} \hfill \\ \end{array} } \right. $

is studied. The singularity may appear at u?=?0, and the function g may change sign. An existence theorem for solutions to the above boundary-value problem is proposed, and it is proved via the method of upper and lower solutions.

     

The emission spectrum of IBr excited in the presence of Argon

Wavelengths and wavenumbers of the band heads in the region 3915–3540 Å are recorded as obtained from the measurements of the plates taken on a first order 21-feet grating spectrograph. Earlier workers recently reported 40 bands of this system covering the region 3900–3800 Å. All the bands of this system obtained in the present experiments are analysed as involving the³ Π (1) state for lower state. The constants for the lower state are such that they represent well the ΔG (v+1/2) values obtained in the present experiments fromv=0 tov=26 as well as those obtained by Brown fromv=9 tov=43. The vibrational constants of the two states involved are:

$$\begin{gathered} \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\omega _e ^{\prime \prime } } \\ {137 \cdot 8 cm.^{ - 1} ,} \\ \end{array} \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\omega _e ^{\prime \prime } x_e ^{\prime \prime } } \\ {0 \cdot 571 cm.^{ - 1} } \\ \end{array} \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\omega _e ^{\prime \prime } y_e ^{\prime \prime } } \\ { - 0 \cdot 1156 cm.^{ - 1} } \\ \end{array} \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\omega _e z_e ^{\prime \prime } } \\ {3 \cdot 09 \times 10^{ - 3} cm.^{ - 1} } \\ \end{array} \hfill \\ \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\omega _e ^{\prime \prime } t_e ^{\prime \prime } } \\ { - 2 \cdot 5 \times 10^{ - 5} cm.^{ - 1} ,} \\ \end{array} \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\omega _e ^\prime } \\ {90 \cdot 1 cm.^{ - 1} ,} \\ \end{array} \begin{array}{*{20}c} {\omega _e ^\prime x_e ^\prime } \\ {0 \cdot 15 cm.^{ - 1} } \\ \end{array} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$

A note on some results of Hua in short intervals

In this paper, we improve the previous results of the authors [G. Lü and H. Tang, On some results of Hua in short intervals, Lith. Math. J., 50(1):54–70, 2010] by proving that each sufficiently large integer N satisfying some congruence conditions can be written as

$ \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {N = p_1^2 + p_2^2 + p_3^2 + p_4^2 + {p^k},} \hfill \\ {\left| {{p_j} - \sqrt {{\frac{N}{5}}} } \right| \leqslant U,\quad \left| {p - {{\left( {\frac{N}{5}} \right)}^{\frac{1}{k}}}} \right| \leqslant U\,{N^{ - \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{k}}},\quad j = 1,\,2,\,\,3,\,4,} \hfill \\ \end{array} } \right. $

where U = N ^1/2?η+ε with \( \eta = \frac{1}{{2k\left( {{K^2} + 1} \right)}} \) and K = 2k ^?1, k ? 2.

     

Embeddings between weighted Copson and Cesàro function spaces

In this paper, characterizations of the embeddings between weighted Copson function spaces \(Co{p_{{p_1},{q_1}}}\left( {{u_1},{v_1}} \right)\) and weighted Cesàro function spaces \(Ce{s_{{p_2},{q_2}}}\left( {{u_2},{v_2}} \right)\) are given. In particular, two-sided estimates of the optimal constant c in the inequality

$${\left( {\int_0^\infty {{{\left( {\int_0^t {f{{\left( \tau \right)}^{{p_2}}}{v_2}\left( \tau \right)d\tau } } \right)}^{{q_2}/{p_2}}}{u_2}\left( t \right)dt} } \right)^{1/{q_2}}} \leqslant c{\left( {\int_0^\infty {{{\left( {\int_t^\infty {f{{\left( \tau \right)}^{{p_1}}}{v_1}\left( \tau \right)d\tau } } \right)}^{{q_1}/{p_1}}}{u_1}\left( t \right)dt} } \right)^{1/{q_1}}},$$

where p₁, p₂, q₁, q₂ ∈ (0,∞), p₂ ≤ q₂ and u₁, u₂, v₁, v₂ are weights on (0,∞), are obtained. The most innovative part consists of the fact that possibly different parameters p₁ and p₂ and possibly different inner weights v₁ and v₂ are allowed. The proof is based on the combination of duality techniques with estimates of optimal constants of the embeddings between weighted Cesàro and Copson spaces and weighted Lebesgue spaces, which reduce the problem to the solutions of iterated Hardy-type inequalities.

     

Graphs with small total rainbow connection number

A total-colored path is total rainbow if its edges and internal vertices have distinct colors. A total-colored graph G is total rainbow connected if any two distinct vertices are connected by some total rainbow path. The total rainbow connection number of G, denoted by trc(G), is the smallest number of colors required to color the edges and vertices of G in order to make G total rainbow connected. In this paper, we investigate graphs with small total rainbow connection number. First, for a connected graph G, we prove that \({\text{trc(G) = 3 if}}\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{n - 1} \\2\end{array}} \right) + 1 \leqslant \left| {{\text{E(G)}}} \right| \leqslant \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}n \\2\end{array}} \right) - 1\), and \({\text{trc(G)}} \leqslant {\text{6 if }}\left| {{\text{E(G)}}} \right| \geqslant \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{n - 2} \\2\end{array}} \right) + 2\). Next, we investigate the total rainbow connection numbers of graphs G with |V(G)| = n, diam(G) ≥ 2, and clique number ω(G) = n ? s for 1 ≤ s ≤ 3. In this paper, we find Theorem 3 of [Discuss. Math. Graph Theory, 2011, 31(2): 313–320] is not completely correct, and we provide a complete result for this theorem.
