Statistical extensions of some classical Tauberian theorems

Hardy's well-known Tauberian theorem for Cesàro means says that if the sequence satisfies and , then . In this paper it is shown that the hypothesis can be replaced by the weaker assumption of the statistical limit: st-lim , i.e., for every , . Similarly, the ``one-sided' Tauberian theorem of Landau and Schmidt's Tauberian theorem for the Abel method are extended by replacing and with st-lim and st-lim , respectively. The Hardy-Littlewood Tauberian theorem for Borel summability is also extended by replacing , where is a continuous parameter, with , and further replacing it by -st-lim , where is the Borel matrix method.

     

Convergence of paths for pseudo-contractive mappings in Banach spaces

Let be a real Banach space, let be a closed convex subset of , and let , from into , be a pseudo-contractive mapping (i.e. for all and 1)$">. Suppose the space has a uniformly Gâteaux differentiable norm, such that every closed bounded convex subset of enjoys the Fixed Point Property for nonexpansive self-mappings. Then the path , , defined by the equation is continuous and strongly converges to a fixed point of as , provided that satisfies the weakly inward condition.

     

-semigroups generated by second order differential operators with general Wentzell boundary conditions

Let us consider the operator where is positive and continuous in and is equipped with the so-called generalized Wentzell boundary condition which is of the form at each boundary point, where This class of boundary conditions strictly includes Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin conditions.

Under suitable assumptions on , we prove that generates a positive -semigroup on and, hence, many previous (linear or nonlinear) results are extended substantially.

Four-genus and four-dimensional clasp number of a knot

For a knot in the -sphere, by using the linking form on the first homology group of the double branched cover of the -sphere, we investigate some numerical invariants, -genus , nonorientable -genus and -dimensional clasp number , defined from the four-dimensional viewpoint. T. Shibuya gave an inequality , and asked whether the equality holds or not. From our result in this paper, we find that the equality does not hold in general.

     

Connected sums of manifolds which induce approximate fibrations

Codimension-2 fibrators are -manifolds which automatically induce approximate fibration, in the following sense: given any proper mapping from an -manifold onto a -manifold such that each point-preimage is a copy of the codimension-2 fibrator, is necessarily an approximate fibration. In this paper, we give some answers to the following question: given an -manifold which is a nontrivial connected sum, when is a codimension-2 fibrator?
