Extremal feedback perturbations for families of closed operators

Let T- S, be a family of not necessarily bounded semi-Fredholm operators, where T and S are operators acting between Banach spaces X and Y, and where S is bounded with D(S) D(T). For compact sets , as well as for certain open sets , we investigate existence and minimal rank of bounded feedback perturbations of the form F=BE such that min.ind (T-S+F)=0 for all . Here B is a given operator from a linear space Z to Y and E is some operator from X to Z.We give a simple characterization of that situation, when such regularizing feedback perturbations exist and show that for compact sets the minimal rank never exceeds max { min.ind (T-S) }+1. Moreover, an example shows that the minimal rank, in fact, may increase from max {...} to max {...}+1, if the given B enforces a certain structure of the feedbachk perturbation F.However, the minimal rank is equal to max { min.ind (T-S) }, if is an open set such that min.ind (T-S) already vanishes for all but finitely many points . We illustrate this result by applying it to the stabilization of certain infinite-dimensional dynamical systems in Hilbert space.     

Eigenvalues of integral operators onL 2(I) given by analytic kernels

Let {_n} _n=0 be the eigenvalue sequence of a symmetric Hilbert-Schmidt operator onL ₂(I). WhenI is an open interval, a necessary condition for {_n} _n=0 to be in the sequence space is obtained. WhenI is a closed bounded interval, sufficient conditions for {_n} _n=0 to be in the sequence space ^– are obtained.

A Proof of the Jungnickel-Tonchev Conjecture on Quasi-Multiple Quasi-Symmetric Designs

A proof of the following conjecture of Jungnickel and Tonchev on quasi-multiple quasi-symmetric designs is given: Let D be a design whose parameter set (v,b,r,k,) equals (v,sv,sk,k, s) for some positive integer s and for some integers v,k, that satisfy (v-1) = k(k-1) (that is, these integers satisfy the parametric feasibility conditions for a symmetric (v,k,)-design). Further assume that D is a quasi-symmetric design, that is D has at most two block intersection numbers. If (k, (s-1)) = 1, then the only way D can be constructed is by taking multiple copies of a symmetric (v,k, )-design.     

Sensitivity analysis of the greatest eigenvalue of a symmetric matrix via the ɛ-subdifferential of the associated convex quadratic form

LetA(·) be ann × n symmetric affine matrix-valued function of a parameteruR ^m , and let (u) be the greatest eigenvalue ofA(u). Recently, there has been interest in calculating (u), the subdifferential of atu, which is useful for both the construction of efficient algorithms for the minimization of (u) and the sensitivity analysis of (u), namely, the perturbation theory of (u). In this paper, more generally, we investigate the Legendre-Fenchel conjugate function of (·) and the -subdifferential (u) of atu. Then, we discuss relations between the set (u) and some perturbation bounds for (u).The author is deeply indebted to Professor J. B. Hiriart-Urruty who suggested this study and provided helpful advice and constant encouragement. The author also thanks the referees and the editors for their substantial help in the improvement of this paper.     

A conditional dilatation equation

Summary The following theorem holds true. Theorem. Let X be a normed real vector space of dimension 3 and let k > 0 be a fixed real number. Suppose that f: X X and g: X × X are functions satisfying x – y = k f(x) – f(y) = g(x, y)(x – y) for all x, y X. Then there exist elements and t X such that f(x) = x + t for all x X and such that g(x, y) = for all x, y X with x – y = k.     

Shift invariant spaces inL 2

If is a complex, separable Hilbert space, letL ² () denote theL ²-space of functions defined on the unit circle and having values in . The bilateral shift onL ²() is the operator (U f)()=f(). A Hilbert spaceH iscontractively contained in the Hilbert spaceK ifHK and the inclusion mapH–K is a contraction. We describe the structure of those Hilbert spaces, contractively contained inL ²(), that are carried into themselves contractively byU . We also do this for the subcase of those spaces which are carried into themselves unitarily byU .     

On a nonlinear eigenvalue problem

In the present paper we consider a selfadjoint and nonsmooth operator-valued function on (c, d)R ¹. We suppose that the equation (L()x, x)=0,x0, has exactly one rootp(x) (c, d) and the functionf()=(L()x, x) is increasing at the pointp(x). We discuss questions of the variational theory of the spectrum. Some theorems on the variational properties of the spectrum are proved.     

Ultrafilter translations

We develop a method for extending results about ultrafilters into a more general setting. In this paper we shall be mainly concerned with applications to cardinality logics. For example, assumingV=L, Gödel's Axiom of Constructibility, we prove that if > then the logic with the quantifier there exist many is (,)-compact if and only if either is weakly compact or is singular of cofinality<. As a corollary, for every infinite cardinals and , there exists a (,)-compact non-(,)-compact logic if and only if either < orcf<cf or < is weakly compact.Counterexamples are given showing that the above statements may fail, ifV=L is not assumed.However, without special assumptions, analogous results are obtained for the stronger notion of [,]-compactness.     

Perron-frobenius theory for Banach spaces with a hyperbolic cone

If X is a real Banach space, then the inequality x defines so-called hyperbolic cone in E=X. We develop a relevant version of Perron-Frobenius-Krein-Rutman theory.     

On graphical partitions

An integer partition {₁,₂,..., _v } is said to be graphical if there exists a graph with degree sequence _i . We give some results corcerning the problem of deciding whether or not almost all partitions of even integer are non-graphical. We also give asymptotic estimates for the number of partitions with given rank.     

Algebraic systems of quadratic forms of number fields and function fields

In this paper we examine for which Witt classes ,..., _n over a number field or a function fieldF there exist a finite extensionL/F and ₂,..., _n L^* such thatT _L/F ()=1 andTr _L/F (_i)=_i fori=2,...n.     

On extremal perturbations of semi-Fredholm operators

Given a bounded linear operatorA in an infinite dimensional Banach space and a compact subset of a connected component of its semi-Fredholm domain, we construct a finite rank operatorF such that –A+F is bounded below (or surjective) for each ,F ²=0 and rankF=max min{dimN(–A), codimR(–A)}, if ind(–A)0 (or ind(–A)0, respectively) for each .     

Isometries of symmetric operator spaces associated with AFD factors of typeII and symmetric vector-valued spaces

If is a surjective isometry of the separable symmetric operator spaceE(M, ) associated with the approximately finite-dimensional semifinite factorM and if · _E(M,) is not proportional to · _{L 2}, then there exist a unitary operatorUM and a Jordan automorphismJ ofM such that(x)=UJ(x) for allxME(M, ). We characterize also surjective isometries of vector-valued symmetric spacesF((0, 1), E(M, )).Research supported by the Australian Research Council     

Estimates of Entire Functions of Exponential Type Less than π in Terms of Logarithmic Sums over Real Duffin and Schaeffer Sequences

We give uniform estimates of entire functions of exponential type less than having sufficiently small logarithmic sums over real sequences { _n } satisfying | _n –n|L and _n+1– _n for fixed positive constants L and . We thereby generalize results about logarithmic sums over the set of integers and so-called relatively h-dense sequences.     

Isolated point of spectrum ofP-hyponormal, log-hyponormal operators

LetT B(H) be a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert spaceH. Let ₀ (T) be an isolated point of (T) and let be the Riesz idempotent for ₀. In this paper, we prove that ifT isp-hyponormal or log-hyponormal, thenE is self-adjoint andE H=ker(H–₀)=ker(H–₀ ^*.This research was supported by Grant-in-Aid Research 1 No. 12640187.     

Compact interval spaces in which all closed subsets are homeomorphic to clopen ones,II

A topological spaceX whose topology is the order topology of some linear ordering onX, is called aninterval space. A space in which every closed subspace is homeomorphic to a clopen subspace, is called aCO space and a space isscattered if every non-empty subspace has an isolated point. We regard linear orderings as topological spaces, by equipping them with their order topology. IfL andK are linear orderings, thenL ^*, L+K, L · K denote respectively the reverse ordering ofL, the ordered sum ofL andK and the lexicographic order onL x K (so · 2=+). Ordinals are considered as linear orderings, and cardinals are initial ordinals. For cardinals , l 0, letL(K,)=K+1+*.Theorem: Let X be a compact interval scattered space. Then X is a CO space if and only if X is homeomorphic to a space of the form +1+_{1 L(K i i), where is any ordinal, n , for every ii},_i are regular cardinals and K_ii, and if n>0, then max({K_i:i相似文献   

Intrinsic ultracontractivity of Dirichlet Laplacians in non-smooth domains

We give a general criterion for the intrinsic ultracontractivity of Dirichlet Laplacians – _D on domainsD ofR ^d d 3, based on the Lieb's formula. It applies to various classes of domains (e.g. John, Hölder andL ^p-averaging domains) and gives new conditions for intrinsic ultracontractivity in terms of the Minkowski dimension of the boundary D. In particular, isotropic self-similar fractals and domains satisfying a c-covering condition are considered.     

The Selberg trace formula for SL(3,Z)

In this article the first step toward the generalization of the Selberg trace formula to the case of a rank 2 symmetric space S and a discrete group for which the fundamental region \S goes to infinity nontrivially appears. For S we use the space SL(3,)/SO(3) and for we use SL(3,). The fundamental results are Theorems 9 and 10, in which is calculated the contribution to the matrix trace of the operator K which appears in the right side of the trace formula of the expression h()d^c(), where ^c() is the continuous part of the spectral measure of the quasiregular representation on the space IL₂(\S).Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.
