Moduli of metaplectic bundles on curves and Theta-sheaves

We give a geometric interpretation of the Weil representation of the metaplectic group, placing it in the framework of the geometric Langlands program.For a smooth projective curve X we introduce an algebraic stack of metaplectic bundles on X. It also has a local version , which is a gerbe over the affine Grassmanian of G. We define a categorical version of the (nonramified) Hecke algebra of the metaplectic group. This is a category of certain perverse sheaves on , which act on by Hecke operators. A version of the Satake equivalence is proved describing as a tensor category. Further, we construct a perverse sheaf on corresponding to the Weil representation and show that it is a Hecke eigen-sheaf with respect to .     

Additive maps on standard operator algebras preserving parts of the spectrum

Let and be standard operator algebras on infinite dimensional complex Banach spaces X and Y, respectively, and let Φ be a unital additive surjection from  onto . We introduce thirteen parts of the spectrum for elements in  and , and prove that if Φ preserves any one of these parts of the spectrum, then it is either an isomorphism or an anti-isomorphism.     

Generalized almost periodic and ergodic solutions of linear differential equations on the half-line in Banach spaces

The Bohl-Bohr-Amerio-Kadets theorem states that the indefinite integral y=Pφ of an almost periodic (ap) is again ap if y is bounded and the Banach space X does not contain a subspace isomorphic to c₀. This is here generalized in several directions: Instead of it holds also for φ defined only on a half-line , instead of ap functions abstract classes with suitable properties are admissible, can be weakened to φ in some “mean” class , then ; here contains all f∈L¹_loc with in for all h>0 (usually strictly); furthermore, instead of boundedness of y mean boundedness, y in some , or in , ergodic functions, suffices. The Loomis-Doss result on the almost periodicity of a bounded Ψ for which all differences Ψ(t+h)−Ψ(t) are ap for h>0 is extended analogously, also to higher order differences. Studying “difference spaces” in this connection, we obtain decompositions of the form: Any bounded measurable function is the sum of a bounded ergodic function and the indefinite integral of a bounded ergodic function. The Bohr-Neugebauer result on the almost periodicity of bounded solutions y of linear differential equations P(D)y=φ of degree m with ap φ is extended similarly for ; then provided, for example, y is in some with U=L^∞ or is totally ergodic and, for the half-line, Reλ?0 for all eigenvalues P(λ)=0. Analogous results hold for systems of linear differential equations. Special case: φ bounded and Pφ ergodic implies Pφ bounded. If all Reλ>0, there exists a unique solution y growing not too fast; this y is in if , for quite general .     

A one-to-one correspondence between colorings and stable sets

Given a graph G, we construct an auxiliary graph with vertices such that the set of all stable sets of is in one-to-one correspondence with the set of all colorings of G. Then, we show that the Max-Coloring problem in G reduces to the Maximum Weighted Stable set problem in .     

On the Ricci and Einstein equations on the pseudo-euclidean and hyperbolic spaces

We consider tensors T=fg on the pseudo-euclidean space Rn and on the hyperbolic space Hn, where n?3, g is the standard metric and f is a differentiable function. For such tensors, we consider, in both spaces, the problems of existence of a Riemannian metric , conformal to g, such that , and the existence of such a metric which satisfies , where is the scalar curvature of . We find the restrictions on the Ricci candidate for solvability and we construct the solutions when they exist. We show that these metrics are unique up to homothety, we characterize those globally defined and we determine the singularities for those which are not globally defined. None of the non-homothetic metrics , defined on Rn or Hn, are complete. As a consequence of these results, we get positive solutions for the equation , where g is the pseudo-euclidean metric.     

Congruences involving Bernoulli polynomials

Let {B_n(x)} be the Bernoulli polynomials. In the paper we establish some congruences for , where p is an odd prime and x is a rational p-integer. Such congruences are concerned with the properties of p-regular functions, the congruences for and the sum , where h(d) is the class number of the quadratic field of discriminant d and p-regular functions are those functions f such that are rational p-integers and for n=1,2,3,… . We also establish many congruences for Euler numbers.     

Limiting subdifferentials of indefinite integrals

We compute the limiting subdifferential of the indefinite integral of the form where f is an essentially bounded measurable function, or a function continuous on an interval containing (except for, possibly, ), or a step-function which has a countable number of steps around . The related problem of computing the Aumann integral of the limiting subdifferential mapping ∂f(⋅), where f is a Lipschitz real function defined on an open set U⊂Rn, is also investigated.     

Pseudovarieties defining classes of sofic subshifts closed under taking shift equivalent subshifts

For a pseudovariety of ordered semigroups, let be the class of sofic subshifts whose syntactic semigroup lies in . It is proved that if contains then is closed under taking shift equivalent subshifts, and conversely, if is closed under taking conjugate subshifts then contains and . Almost finite type subshifts are characterized as the irreducible elements of , which gives a new proof that the class of almost finite type subshifts is closed under taking shift equivalent subshifts.     

Vertex coloring acyclic digraphs and their corresponding hypergraphs

We consider vertex coloring of an acyclic digraph in such a way that two vertices which have a common ancestor in receive distinct colors. Such colorings arise in a natural way when bounding space for various genetic data for efficient analysis. We discuss the corresponding down-chromatic number and derive an upper bound as a function of , the maximum number of descendants of a given vertex, and the degeneracy of the corresponding hypergraph. Finally, we determine an asymptotically tight upper bound of the down-chromatic number in terms of the number of vertices of and .
