The Bergman kernel: Explicit formulas,deflation, Lu Qi-Keng problem and Jacobi polynomials

We investigate the Bergman kernel function for the intersection of two complex ellipsoids {(z,w ₁,w ₂) ∈ C ⁿ⁺²: |z ₁|²+...+|z _n |²+|w ₁| ^q < 1, |z ₁|²+...+|z _n |²+|w ₂| ^r < 1}. We also compute the kernel function for {(z ₁,w ₁,w ₂) ∈ C³: |z ₁|^2/n + |w ₁| ^q < 1, |z ₁|^2/n + |w ₂| ^r < 1} and show deflation type identity between these two domains. Moreover in the case that q = r = 2 we express the Bergman kernel in terms of the Jacobi polynomials. The explicit formulas of the Bergman kernel function for these domains enables us to investigate whether the Bergman kernel has zeros or not. This kind of problem is called a Lu Qi-Keng problem.

Hyperbolic Chevalley groups on ℂ<Superscript>2</Superscript>

Let Γ ? U (1, 1) be the subgroup generated by the complex reflections. Suppose that Γ acts discretely on the domain K = {(z ₁, z ₂) ∈ ?² ||z ₁|² ? |z ₂|² < 0} and that the projective group PΓ acts on the unit disk B = {|z ₁/z ₂| < 1} as a Fuchsian group of signature (n ₁, ..., n _s ), s ? 3, n _i ? 2. For such groups, we prove a Chevalley type theorem, i.e., find a necessary and sufficient condition for the quotient space K/Γ to be isomorphic to ?² ? {0}.     

Super-exponential decay and holomorphic extensions for semilinear equations with polynomial coefficients

We show that all eigenfunctions of linear partial differential operators in Rn with polynomial coefficients of Shubin type are extended to entire functions in Cn of finite exponential type 2 and decay like exp(−²|z|) for |z|→∞ in conic neighbourhoods of the form |Imz|?γ|Rez|. We also show that under semilinear polynomial perturbations all nonzero homoclinics keep the super-exponential decay of the above type, whereas a loss of the holomorphicity occurs, namely we show holomorphic extension into a strip {z∈Cn||Imz|?T} for some T>0. The proofs are based on geometrical and perturbative methods in Gelfand-Shilov spaces. The results apply in particular to semilinear Schrödinger equations of the form

In this paper, we obtain the general solution and the stability of the 2-variable quadratic functional equation

On power deformations of univalent functions

For an analytic function f (z) on the unit disk |z| < 1 with f (0) = f′(0) ? 1 = 0 and f (z) ≠ 0, 0 < |z| < 1, we consider the power deformation f _c (z) = z(f (z)/z) ^c for a complex number c. We determine those values c for which the operator \({f \mapsto f_c}\) maps a specified class of univalent functions into the class of univalent functions. A little surprisingly, we will see that the set is described by the variability region of the quantity zf′(z)/ f (z), |z| < 1, for most of the classes that we consider in the present paper. As an unexpected by-product, we show boundedness of strongly spirallike functions.     

Meromorphic Jost functions and asymptotic expansions for Jacobi parameters

We show that the parameters a _n , b _n of a Jacobi matrix have a complete asymptotic expansion

$a_n^2 - 1 = \sum\limits_{k = 1}^{K(R)} {p_k (n)\mu _k^{ - 2n} + O(R^{ - 2n} ),} b_n = \sum\limits_{k = 1}^{K(R)} {p_k (n)\mu _k^{ - 2n + 1} + O(R^{ - 2n} )} $

, where 1 < |µ_j| < R for j ? K(R) and all R, if and only if the Jost function, u, written in terms of z (where E = z + z ^?1) is an entire meromorphic function. We relate the poles of u to the µ_j’s.

     

Real submanifolds in complex spaces

Let(z_(11),..., z_(1N),..., z_(m1),..., z_(mN), w_(11),..., w_(mm)) be the coordinates in C~(mN) +m~2. In this note we prove the analogue of the Theorem of Moser in the case of the real-analytic submanifold M defined as follows W = ZZ~t+ O(3),where W = {w_(ij)}_(1≤i,j≤m)and Z = {z_(ij) }_(1≤i≤m, 1≤j≤N). We prove that M is biholomorphically equivalent to the model W = ZZ~t if and only if is formally equivalent to it.     

Heat Kernels of Non-symmetric Jump Processes: Beyond the Stable Case

Let J be the Lévy density of a symmetric Lévy process in \(\mathbb {R}^{d}\) with its Lévy exponent satisfying a weak lower scaling condition at infinity. Consider the non-symmetric and non-local operator

$$\mathcal{L}^{\kappa}f(x):= \lim_{{\varepsilon} \downarrow 0} {\int}_{\{z \in \mathbb{R}^{d}: |z|>{\varepsilon}\}} (f(x+z)-f(x))\kappa(x,z)J(z)\, dz\, , $$

where κ(x, z) is a Borel function on \(\mathbb {R}^{d}\times \mathbb {R}^{d}\) satisfying 0 < κ ₀ ≤ κ(x, z) ≤ κ ₁, κ(x, z) = κ(x,?z) and |κ(x, z) ? κ(y, z)|≤ κ ₂|x ? y| ^β for some β ∈ (0, 1]. We construct the heat kernel p ^κ (t, x, y) of \(\mathcal {L}^{\kappa }\), establish its upper bound as well as its fractional derivative and gradient estimates. Under an additional weak upper scaling condition at infinity, we also establish a lower bound for the heat kernel p ^κ .

Some Zygmund type inequalities for the <Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis>th derivative of polynomials

For a polynomial P(z) of degree n having no zeros in |z| < 1, it was recently proved in [9] that

$$\left| {{z^s}{P^{\left( s \right)}}\left( z \right) + \beta \frac{{n\left( {n - 1} \right)...\left( {n - s + 1} \right)}}{{{2^s}}}P\left( z \right)} \right| \leqslant \frac{{n\left( {n - 1} \right)...\left( {n - s + 1} \right)}}{2}\left( {\left| {1 + \frac{\beta }{{{2^s}}}} \right| + \left| {\frac{\beta }{{{2^s}}}} \right|} \right)\mathop {\max }\limits_{\left| z \right| = 1} \left| {P\left( z \right)} \right|$$

for every β ∈ C with |β| ≤ 1, 1 ≤ s ≤ n and |z| = 1. In this paper, we obtain the L _p mean extension of the above and other related results for the sth derivative of polynomials.

On a certain type of nonlinear differential equations admitting transcendental meromorphic solutions

We study the differential equations w ²+R(z)(w ^(k))² = Q(z), where R(z),Q(z) are nonzero rational functions. We prove

1. if the differential equation w ²+R(z)(w′)² = Q(z), where R(z), Q(z) are nonzero rational functions, admits a transcendental meromorphic solution f, then Q ≡ C (constant), the multiplicities of the zeros of R(z) are no greater than 2 and f(z) = √C cos α(z), where α(z) is a primitive of $\tfrac{1} {{\sqrt {R(z)} }}$ such that √C cos α(z) is a transcendental meromorphic function.
2. if the differential equation w ² + R(z)(w ^(k))² = Q(z), where k ? 2 is an integer and R,Q are nonzero rational functions, admits a transcendental meromorphic solution f, then k is an odd integer, Q ≡ C (constant), R(z) ≡ A (constant) and f(z) = √C cos (az + b), where $a^{2k} = \tfrac{1} {A}$ .

     

A numerical algorithm for solving a nonstationary problem of optimal control

Let {φ _n ^(α,β) (z)} _n=0 ^∞ be a system of Jacobi polynomials orthonormal on the circle |z| = 1 with respect to the weight (1 ? cos τ)^α+1/2(1 + cos τ)^β+1/2 (α, β > ?1), and let \(\psi _n^{\left( {\alpha ,\beta } \right)*} \left( z \right): = z^n \overline {\psi _n^{\left( {\alpha ,\beta } \right)} \left( {{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 {\bar z}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\bar z}}} \right)}\)). We establish relations between the polynomial φ _n ^(α,?1/2) (z) and the nth (C, α ? 1/2)-mean of the Maclaurin series for the function (1 ? z)^?α?3/2 and also between the polynomial φ _n ^(α,?1/2)* (z) and the nth (C, α + 1/2)-mean of the Maclaurin series for the function (1 ? z)^?α?1/2. We use these relations to derive an asymptotic formula for φ _n ^(α,?1/2) (z); the formula is uniform inside the disk |z| < 1. It follows that φ _n ^(α,?1/2) (z) ≠ 0 in the disk |z| ≤ ρ for fixed φ ∈ (0, 1) and α > ?1 if n is sufficiently large.     

Coefficient estimates of negative powers and inverse coefficients for certain starlike functions

For ?1≤B<A≤1, let \(\mathcal {S}^{*}(A,B)\) denote the class of normalized analytic functions \(f(z)= z+{\sum }_{n=2}^{\infty }a_{n} z^{n}\) in |z|<1 which satisfy the subordination relation z f ^′(z)/f(z)?(1 + A z)/(1 + B z) and Σ^?(A,B) be the corresponding class of meromorphic functions in |z|>1. For \(f\in \mathcal {S}^{*}(A,B)\) and λ>0, we shall estimate the absolute value of the Taylor coefficients a _n (?λ,f) of the analytic function (f(z)/z)^?λ . Using this we shall determine the coefficient estimate for inverses of functions in the classes \(\mathcal {S}^{*}(A,B)\) and Σ^?(A,B).     

Commuting Krichever–Novikov differential operators with polynomial coefficients

Under study are some commuting rank 2 differential operators with polynomial coefficients. We prove that, for every spectral curve of the form w² = z³+c₂z2+c₁z+c₀ with arbitrary coefficients c_i, there exist commuting nonselfadjoint operators of orders 4 and 6 with polynomial coefficients of arbitrary degree.
