The Essential Norm of a Generalized Composition Operator Between Bloch-Type Spaces and Q K Type Spaces

Let ?? be an analytic self-map of the unit disk ${\rm \mathbb{D},H(\rm \mathbb{D})}$ the space of analytic functions on ${{\rm \mathbb{D}}}$ and ${g \in H(\rm \mathbb{D})}$ . We define a linear operator as follows $$C_\varphi^gf(z)=\int\limits_0^zf'(\varphi(w))g(w)\, {\rm d}w, $$ on ${ H(\rm \mathbb{D})}$ . In this paper, estimates for the essential norm of the generalized composition operator between Bloch-type spaces and Q _K type spaces are obtained.     

Homomorphisms with respect to a function

Let X be a realcompact space and ${H:C(X)\rightarrow\mathbb{R}}$ be an identity and order preserving group homomorphism. It is shown that H is an evaluation at some point of X if and only if there is ${\varphi\in C(\mathbb{R})}$ with ${\varphi(r)>\varphi(0)}$ for all ${r\in\mathbb{R}-\{0\}}$ for which ${H\circ\varphi=\varphi\circ H}$ . This extends (and unifies) classical results by Hewitt and Shirota.     

A covering lemma for {K(\mathbb {R})}

The Dodd–Jensen Covering Lemma states that “if there is no inner model with a measurable cardinal, then for any uncountable set of ordinals X, there is a ${Y\in K}$ such that ${X\subseteq Y}$ and |X| = |Y|”. Assuming ZF+AD alone, we establish the following analog: If there is no inner model with an ${\mathbb {R}}$ –complete measurable cardinal, then the real core model ${K(\mathbb {R})}$ is a “very good approximation” to the universe of sets V; that is, ${K(\mathbb {R})}$ and V have exactly the same sets of reals and for any set of ordinals X with ${|{X}|\ge\Theta}$ , there is a ${Y\in K(\mathbb {R})}$ such that ${X\subseteq Y}$ and |X| = |Y|. Here ${\mathbb {R}}$ is the set of reals and ${\Theta}$ is the supremum of the ordinals which are the surjective image of ${\mathbb {R}}$ .     

Howe correspondence and Springer correspondence for real reductive dual pairs

We consider a real reductive dual pair (G′, G) of type I, with rank ${({\rm G}^{\prime}) \leq {\rm rank(G)}}$ . Given a nilpotent coadjoint orbit ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime} \subseteq \mathfrak{g}^{{\prime}{*}}}$ , let ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime}_\mathbb{C} \subseteq \mathfrak{g}^{{\prime}{*}}_\mathbb{C}}$ denote the complex orbit containing ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}$ . Under some condition on the partition λ′ parametrizing ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}$ , we prove that, if λ is the partition obtained from λ by adding a column on the very left, and ${\mathcal{O}}$ is the nilpotent coadjoint orbit parametrized by λ, then ${\mathcal{O}_\mathbb{C}= \tau (\tau^{\prime -1}(\mathcal{O}_\mathbb{C}^{\prime}))}$ , where ${\tau, \tau^{\prime}}$ are the moment maps. Moreover, if ${chc(\hat\mu_{\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}) \neq 0}$ , where chc is the infinitesimal version of the Cauchy-Harish-Chandra integral, then the Weyl group representation attached by Wallach to ${\mu_{\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}}$ with corresponds to ${\mathcal{O}_\mathbb{C}}$ via the Springer correspondence.     

Algebras of Convolution Type Operators with Piecewise Slowly Oscillating Data. II: Local Spectra and Fredholmness

Let ${\mathcal{B}_{p,w}}$ be the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on the weighted Lebesgue space ${L^p(\mathbb{R},w)}$ , where ${p\in(1,\infty)}$ and w is a Muckenhoupt weight. We study the Banach subalgebra ${\mathfrak{U}_{p,w}}$ of ${\mathcal{B}_{p,w}}$ generated by all multiplication operators aI ( ${a\in PSO^\diamond}$ ) and all convolution operators W ⁰(b) ( ${b\in PSO_{p,w}^\diamond}$ ), where ${PSO^\diamond\subset L^\infty(\mathbb{R})}$ and ${PSO_{p,w}^\diamond\subset M_{p,w}}$ are algebras of piecewise slowly oscillating functions that admit piecewise slowly oscillating discontinuities at arbitrary points of ${\mathbb{R}\cup\{\infty\}}$ , and M _p,w is the Banach algebra of Fourier multipliers on ${L^p(\mathbb{R},w)}$ . Under some conditions on the Muckenhoupt weight w, using results of the local study of ${\mathfrak{U}_{p,w}}$ obtained in the first part of the paper and applying the theory of Mellin pseudodifferential operators and the two idempotents theorem, we now construct a Fredholm symbol calculus for the Banach algebra ${\mathfrak{U}_{p,w}}$ and establish a Fredholm criterion for the operators ${A\in\mathfrak{U}_{p,w}}$ in terms of their Fredholm symbols. In four partial cases we obtain for ${\mathfrak{U}_{p,w}}$ more effective results.     

Heavy tail phenomenon and convergence to stable laws for iterated Lipschitz maps

We consider the Markov chain ${\{X_n^x\}_{n=0}^\infty}$ on ${\mathbb{R}^d}$ defined by the stochastic recursion ${X_{n}^{x}= \psi_{\theta_{n}} (X_{n-1}^{x})}$ , starting at ${x\in\mathbb{R}^d}$ , where ?? ₁, ?? ₂, . . . are i.i.d. random variables taking their values in a metric space ${(\Theta, \mathfrak{r})}$ , and ${\psi_{\theta_{n}} :\mathbb{R}^d\mapsto\mathbb{R}^d}$ are Lipschitz maps. Assume that the Markov chain has a unique stationary measure ??. Under appropriate assumptions on ${\psi_{\theta_n}}$ , we will show that the measure ?? has a heavy tail with the exponent ???>?0 i.e. ${\nu(\{x\in\mathbb{R}^d: |x| > t\})\asymp t^{-\alpha}}$ . Using this result we show that properly normalized Birkhoff sums ${S_n^x=\sum_{k=1}^n X_k^x}$ , converge in law to an ??-stable law for ${\alpha\in(0, 2]}$ .     

On the boundary of the attainable set of the dirichlet spectrum

Denoting by ${\varepsilon\subseteq\mathbb{R}^2}$ the set of the pairs ${(\lambda_1(\Omega),\,\lambda_2(\Omega))}$ for all the open sets ${\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^N}$ with unit measure, and by ${\Theta\subseteq\mathbb{R}^N}$ the union of two disjoint balls of half measure, we give an elementary proof of the fact that ${\partial\varepsilon}$ has horizontal tangent at its lowest point ${(\lambda_1(\Theta),\,\lambda_2(\Theta))}$ .     

Boundedness of Generalized Riesz Transforms on Orlicz–Hardy Spaces Associated to Operators

Let ${\Phi}$ be a continuous, strictly increasing and concave function on (0, ∞) of critical lower type index ${p_\Phi^- \in(0,\,1]}$ . Let L be an injective operator of type ω having a bounded H _∞ functional calculus and satisfying the k-Davies–Gaffney estimates with ${k \in {\mathbb Z}_+}$ . In this paper, the authors first introduce an Orlicz–Hardy space ${H^{\Phi}_{L}(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ in terms of the non-tangential L-adapted square function and then establish its molecular characterization. As applications, the authors prove that the generalized Riesz transform ${D_{\gamma}L^{-\delta/(2k)}}$ is bounded from the Orlicz–Hardy space ${H^{\Phi}_{L}(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ to the Orlicz space ${L^{\widetilde{\Phi}}(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ when ${p_\Phi^- \in (0, \frac{n}{n+ \delta - \gamma}]}$ , ${0 < \gamma \le \delta < \infty}$ and ${\delta- \gamma < n (\frac{1}{p_-(L)}-\frac{1}{p_+(L)})}$ , or from ${H^{\Phi}_{L}(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ to the Orlicz–Hardy space ${H^{\widetilde \Phi}(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ when ${p_\Phi^-\in (\frac{n}{n + \delta+ \lfloor \gamma \rfloor- \gamma},\,\frac{n}{n+ \delta- \gamma}]}$ , ${1\le \gamma \le \delta < \infty}$ and ${\delta- \gamma < n (\frac{1}{p_-(L)}-\frac{1}{p_+(L)})}$ , or from ${H^{\Phi}_{L}(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ to the weak Orlicz–Hardy space ${WH^\Phi(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ when ${\gamma = \delta}$ and ${p_\Phi=n/(n + \lfloor \gamma \rfloor)}$ or ${p_\Phi^-=n/(n + \lfloor \gamma \rfloor)}$ with ${p_\Phi^-}$ attainable, where ${\widetilde{\Phi}}$ is an Orlicz function whose inverse function ${\widetilde{\Phi}^{-1}}$ is defined by ${\widetilde{\Phi}^{-1}(t):=\Phi^{-1}(t)t^{\frac{1}{n}(\gamma- \delta)}}$ for all ${t \in (0,\,\infty)}$ , ${p_\Phi}$ denotes the strictly critical lower type index of ${\Phi}$ , ${\lfloor \gamma \rfloor}$ the maximal integer not more than ${\gamma}$ and ${(p_-(L),\,p_+(L))}$ the range of exponents ${p \in[1,\, \infty]}$ for which the semigroup ${\{e^{-tL}\}_{t >0 }}$ is bounded on ${L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ .     

On p-tuples of the Grassmann manifolds

We provide a matrix invariant for isometry classes of p-tuples of points in the Grassmann manifold ${G_{n}\left(\mathbb{K}^{d}\right) }$ ( ${\mathbb{K=\mathbb{R}}}$ or ${\mathbb{C}}$ ). This invariant fully characterizes the p-tuple. We use it to classify the regular p-tuples of ${G_{2}\left(\mathbb{R}^{d}\right) }$ , ${G_{3}\left( \mathbb{R}^{d}\right) }$ and ${G_{2}\left( \mathbb{C}^{d}\right) }$ .     

Diagram Groupoids and von Neumann Algebras

The main purpose of this paper is to study certain algebraic structures induced by directed graphs. We have studied graph groupoids, which are algebraic structures induced by given graphs. By defining a certain groupoid-homomorphism ?? on the graph groupoid ${\mathbb{G}}$ of a given graph G, we define the diagram of G by the image ${\delta(\mathbb{G})}$ of ??, equipped with the inherited binary operation on ${\mathbb{G}}$ . We study the fundamental properties of the diagram ${\delta(\mathbb{G})}$ , and compare them with those of ${\mathbb{G}}$ . Similar to Cho (Acta Appl Math 95:95?C134, 2007), we construct the groupoid von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal{M}_{G}=vN(\delta(\mathbb{G}))}$ , generated by ${\delta(\mathbb{G})}$ , and consider the operator algebraic properties of ${\mathcal{M}_{G}}$ . In particular, we show ${\mathcal{M}_{G}}$ is *-isomorphic to a von Neumann algebra generated by a family of idempotent operators and nilpotent operators, under suitable representations.     

Maximal, potential and singular operators in vanishing generalized Morrey spaces

We introduce vanishing generalized Morrey spaces ${V\mathcal{L}^{p,\varphi}_\Pi (\Omega), \Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n}$ with a general function ${\varphi(x, r)}$ defining the Morrey-type norm. Here ${\Pi \subseteq \Omega}$ is an arbitrary subset in Ω including the extremal cases ${\Pi = \{x_0\}, x_0 \in \Omega}$ and Π = Ω, which allows to unify vanishing local and global Morrey spaces. In the spaces ${V\mathcal{L}^{p,\varphi}_\Pi (\mathbb{R}^n)}$ we prove the boundedness of a class of sublinear singular operators, which includes Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator and Calderon-Zygmund singular operators with standard kernel. We also prove a Sobolev-Spanne type ${V\mathcal{L}^{p,\varphi}_\Pi (\mathbb{R}^n) \rightarrow V\mathcal{L}^{q,\varphi^\frac{q}{p}}_\Pi (\mathbb{R}^n)}$ -theorem for the potential operator I ^α . The conditions for the boundedness are given in terms of Zygmund-type integral inequalities on ${\varphi(x, r)}$ . No monotonicity type condition is imposed on ${\varphi(x, r)}$ . In case ${\varphi}$ has quasi- monotone properties, as a consequence of the main results, the conditions of the boundedness are also given in terms of the Matuszeska-Orlicz indices of the function ${\varphi}$ . The proofs are based on pointwise estimates of the modulars defining the vanishing spaces     

2-Nilpotent real section conjecture

We show a $2$ -nilpotent section conjecture over $\mathbb{R }$ : for a geometrically connected curve $X$ over $\mathbb{R }$ such that each irreducible component of its normalization has $\mathbb{R }$ -points, $\pi _0(X(\mathbb{R }))$ is determined by the maximal $2$ -nilpotent quotient of the fundamental group with its Galois action, as the kernel of an obstruction of Jordan Ellenberg. This implies that for $X$ smooth and proper, $X(\mathbb{R })^{\pm }$ is determined by the maximal $2$ -nilpotent quotient of $\mathrm{Gal }(\mathbb{C }(X))$ with its $\mathrm{Gal }(\mathbb{R })$ action, where $X(\mathbb{R })^{\pm }$ denotes the set of real points equipped with a real tangent direction, showing a $2$ -nilpotent birational real section conjecture.     

Matrix Representations of the Low Order Real Clifford Algebras

In this paper we construct the matrix subalgebras ${L_{r,s}(\mathbb{R})}$ of the real matrix algebra ${M_{2^{r+s}} (\mathbb{R})}$ when 2 ≤ r + s ≤ 3 and we show that each ${L_{r,s}(\mathbb{R})}$ is isomorphic to the real Clifford algebra ${\mathcal{C} \ell_{r,s}}$ . In particular, we prove that the algebras ${L_{r,s}(\mathbb{R})}$ can be induced from ${L_{0,n}(\mathbb{R})}$ when 2 ≤ r + s = n ≤ 3 by deforming vector generators of ${L_{0,n}(\mathbb{R})}$ to multiply the specific diagonal matrices. Also, we construct two subalgebras ${T_4(\mathbb{C})}$ and ${T_2(\mathbb{H})}$ of matrix algebras ${M_4(\mathbb{C})}$ and ${M_2(\mathbb{H})}$ , respectively, which are both isomorphic to the Clifford algebra ${\mathcal{C} \ell_{0,3}}$ , and apply them to obtain the properties related to the Clifford group Γ_0,3.     

Nikodym Maximal Functions Associated with Variable Planes in {\mathbb{R}^{3}}

Given a vector field ${\mathfrak{a}}$ on ${\mathbb{R}^3}$ , we consider a mapping ${x\mapsto \Pi_{\mathfrak{a}}(x)}$ that assigns to each ${x\in\mathbb{R}^3}$ , a plane ${\Pi_{\mathfrak{a}}(x)}$ containing x, whose normal vector is ${\mathfrak{a}(x)}$ . Associated with this mapping, we define a maximal operator ${\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_N}$ on ${L^1_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^3)}$ for each ${N\gg 1}$ by $$\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_Nf(x)=\sup_{x\in\tau} \frac{1}{|\tau|} \int_{\tau}|f(y)|\,dy$$ where the supremum is taken over all 1/N ×? 1/N?× 1 tubes τ whose axis is embedded in the plane ${\Pi_\mathfrak{a}(x)}$ . We study the behavior of ${\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_N}$ according to various vector fields ${\mathfrak{a}}$ . In particular, we classify the operator norms of ${\mathcal{M}^{\mathfrak{a}}_N}$ on ${L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)}$ when ${\mathfrak{a}(x)}$ is the linear function of the form (a ₁₁ x ₁?+?a ₂₁ x ₂, a ₁₂ x ₁?+?a ₂₂ x ₂, 1). The operator norm of ${\mathcal{M}^\mathfrak{a}_N}$ on ${L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)}$ is related with the number given by $$D=(a_{12}+a_{21})^2-4a_{11}a_{22}.$$      

Homotopy and nonlinear boundary value problems involving singular {\phi}-Laplacians

Homotopy methods are used to find sufficient conditions for the solvability of nonlinear boundary value problems of the form $$(\phi(u^\prime))^\prime = f(t, u, u^\prime), \quad g(u(\alpha), \phi(u^\prime(\beta))) = 0,$$ where (α, β) = (0, 1), (1, 0), (0, 0) or (1, 1), ${\phi}$ is a homeomorphism from the open ball ${B(a) \subset \mathbb{R}^n}$ onto ${\mathbb{R}^n}$ , f is a Carathéodory function, ${g : \mathbb{R}^n \times \, \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^m}$ is continuous and m ≤ 2n.     

On additive involutions and Hamel bases

We provide an example of a discontinuous involutory additive function ${a: \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}}$ such that ${a(H) \setminus H \ne \emptyset}$ for every Hamel basis ${H \subset \mathbb{R}}$ and show that, in fact, the set of all such functions is dense in the topological vector space of all additive functions from ${\mathbb{R}}$ to ${\mathbb{R}}$ with the Tychonoff topology induced by ${\mathbb{R}^{\mathbb{R}}}$ .
