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.     

Critical points of essential norms of singular integral operators in weighted spaces

We show that for any simple piecewise Ljapunov contour there exists a power weight such that the essential norm |S | in the spaceL ₂(, ) does not depend on the angles of the contour and it is given by formula (2). All such weights are described. For the union =₁₂ of two simple piecewise Lyapunov curves we prove that the essential norm |S | inL ₂() is minimal if both ₁ and ₂ are smooth in some neighborhoods of the common points. It is the case when the norm |S | in the spaceL ₂() as well as inL ₂(, ) does not depend on the values of the angles and it can be calculated by formula (5).

Cohomology of solvable lie algebras and solvmanifolds

The cohomology H^* (G/,) of the de Rham complex *(G/) of a compact solvmanifold G/ with deformed differential d = d + , where is a closed 1 -form, is studied. Such cohomologies naturally arise in Morse-Novikov theory. It is shown that, for any completely solvable Lie group G containing a cocompact lattice G, the cohomology H^*(G/, ) is isomorphic to the cohomology H^*( ) of the tangent Lie algebra of the group G with coefficients in the one-dimensional representation : defined by () = (). Moreover, the cohomology H ^*(G/,) is nontrivial if and only if -[] belongs to a finite subset of H ¹(G/,) defined in terms of the Lie algebra .Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, vol. 77, no. 1, 2005, pp. 67–79.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by D.

Factorization of a selfadjoint nonanalytic operator function II. Single spectral zone

We consider a selfadjoint and smooth enough operator-valued functionL() on the segment [a, b]. LetL(a)0,L(b)0, and there exist two positive numbers and such that the inequality |(L()f, f)|< ([a, b] f=1) implies the inequality (L'()f, f)>. Then the functionL() admits a factorizationL()=M()(I-Z) whereM() is a continuous and invertible on [a, b] operator-valued function, and operatorZ is similar to a selfadjoint one. This result was obtained in the first part of the present paper [10] under a stronge conditionL()0 ( [a,b]). For analytic functionL() the result of this paper was obtained in [13].     

Inequalities in Products of Minors of Totally Nonnegative Matrices

Let _I,I be the minor of a matrix which corresponds to row set I and column set I. We give a characterization of the inequalities of the form _{I,I K,K J,J L,L} which hold for all totally nonnegative matrices. This generalizes a recent result of Fallat, Gekhtman, and Johnson.     

A chord-stretching map of a convex loop is an isometry

Let ⁿ be n-dimensional Euclidean space, and let : [0, L] ⁿ and : [0, L] ⁿ be closed rectifiable arcs in ⁿ of the same total length L which are parametrized via their arc length. is said to be a chord-stretched version of if for each 0s tL, |(t)–(s)| |(t)–(s)|. is said to be convex if is simple and if ([0, L]) is the frontier of some plane convex set. Individual work by Professors G. Choquet and G. T. Sallee demonstrated that if were simple then there existed a convex chord-stretched version of . This result led Professor Yang Lu to conjecture that if were convex and were a chord-stretched version of then and would be congruent, i.e. any chord-stretching map of a convex arc is an isometry. Professor Yang Lu has proved this conjecture in the case where and are C ² curves. In this paper we prove the conjecture in general.

Some homological properties of commutative semitrivial ring extensions

LetR be a commutative ring with 1 andM anR-module. If:M _R MR is anR-module homomorphism satisfying(mm)=(mm) and(mm)m=m(mm), the additive abelian groupRM becomes a commutative ring, if multiplication is defined by (r,m)(r,m)=(rr+(mm),rm+rm). This ring is called the semitrivial extension ofR byM and and it is denoted byR M. This generalizes the notion of a trivial extension and leads to a more interesting variety of examples. The purpose of this paper is to studyR M; in particular, we are interested in some homological properties ofR M as that of being Cohen-Macaulay, Gorenstein or regular. A sample result: Let (R,m) be a local Noetherian ring,M a finitely generatedR-module and Im() m. ThenR M is Gorenstein if and only if eitherRM is Gorenstein orR is Gorenstein,M is a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module andMM ^*, where the isomorphism is given by the adjoint of.

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).     

Lattice Polytopes Associated to Certain Demazure Modules of sl n + 1

Let w be an element of the Weyl group of sl _{n + 1}. We prove that for a certain class of elements w (which includes the longest element w₀ of the Weyl group), there exist a lattice polytope R ^l(w) , for each fundamental weight _i of sl _{n + 1}, such that for any dominant weight = _{i = 1} ⁿ a _{i i} , the number of lattice points in the Minkowski sum _w = _{i = 1} ⁿ a _{i i} ^w is equal to the dimension of the Demazure module E _w (). We also define a linear map A ^w : R ^l(w) P _Z R where P denotes the weight lattice, such that char E _w () = e e^–A(x) where the sum runs through the lattice points x of ^w .     

The existence of some resolvable block designs with divisibility into groups

This paper proves the existence of resolvable block designs with divisibility into groups GD(v; k, m; ₁, ₂) without repeated blocks and with arbitrary parameters such that ₁ = k, (v–1)/(k–1) ₂ v^k–2 (and also ₁ k/2, (v–1)/(2(k–1)) ₂ v^k–2 in case k is even) k 4 andp=1 (mod k–1), k < p for each prime divisor p of number v. As a corollary, the existence of a resolvable BIB-design (v, k, ) without repeated blocks is deduced with X = k (and also with = k/2 in case of even k) k , where a is a natural number if k is a prime power and=1 if k is a composite number.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 19, No. 4, pp. 623–634, April, 1976.     

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.
