Kobayashi hyperbolic imbeddings into toric varieties

Our main goal of this article is to give a characterization of an algebraic divisor on an algebraic torus whose complement is Kobayashi hyperbolically imbedded into a toric projective variety. As an application of our main theorem, we prove the following: the complement of the union of n + 1 hyperplanes in the n-dimensional projective space ${\mathbb{P}^{n}(\mathbb{C})}$ in general position and a general hypersurface of degree n in ${\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})}$ is Kobayashi hyperbolically imbedded into ${\mathbb{P}^n(\mathbb{C})}$ .     

Homotopy Groups of Spheres and Lipschitz Homotopy Groups of Heisenberg Groups

We provide a sufficient condition for the nontriviality of the Lipschitz homotopy group of the Heisenberg group, ${\pi_m^{\rm Lip}(\mathbb{H}_n)}$ , in terms of properties of the classical homotopy group of the sphere, ${\pi_m(\mathbb{S}^n)}$ . As an application we provide a new simplified proof of the fact that ${\pi_n^{\rm Lip}(\mathbb{H}_n)\neq \{0\}, n=1,2,\ldots}$ , and we prove a new result that ${\pi_{4n-1}^{\rm Lip}(\mathbb{H}_{2n})\neq \{0\}}$ for n = 1,2,… The last result is based on a new generalization of the Hopf invariant. We also prove that Lipschitz mappings are not dense in the Sobolev space ${W^{1,p}(\mathcal{M},\mathbb{H}_{2n})}$ when ${\dim \mathcal{M} \geq 4n}$ and 4n?1 ≤  p < 4n.     

Boundedness and Compactness of Pseudodifferential Operators with Non-Regular Symbols on Weighted Lebesgue Spaces

Applying the boundedness on weighted Lebesgue spaces of the maximal singular integral operator S _* related to the Carleson?CHunt theorem on almost everywhere convergence, we study the boundedness and compactness of pseudodifferential operators a(x, D) with non-regular symbols in ${L^\infty(\mathbb{R}, V(\mathbb{R})), PC(\overline{\mathbb{R}}, V(\mathbb{R}))}$ and ${\Lambda_\gamma(\mathbb{R}, V_d(\mathbb{R}))}$ on the weighted Lebesgue spaces ${L^p(\mathbb{R},w)}$ , with 1?< p <? ?? and ${w\in A_p(\mathbb{R})}$ . The Banach algebras ${L^\infty(\mathbb{R}, V(\mathbb{R}))}$ and ${PC(\overline{\mathbb{R}}, V(\mathbb{R}))}$ consist, respectively, of all bounded measurable or piecewise continuous ${V(\mathbb{R})}$ -valued functions on ${\mathbb{R}}$ where ${V(\mathbb{R})}$ is the Banach algebra of all functions on ${\mathbb{R}}$ of bounded total variation, and the Banach algebra ${\Lambda_\gamma(\mathbb{R}, V_d(\mathbb{R}))}$ consists of all Lipschitz ${V_d(\mathbb{R})}$ -valued functions of exponent ${\gamma \in (0,1]}$ on ${\mathbb{R}}$ where ${V_d(\mathbb{R})}$ is the Banach algebra of all functions on ${\mathbb{R}}$ of bounded variation on dyadic shells. Finally, for the Banach algebra ${\mathfrak{A}_{p,w}}$ generated by all pseudodifferential operators a(x, D) with symbols ${a(x, \lambda) \in PC(\overline{\mathbb{R}}, V(\mathbb{R}))}$ on the space ${L^p(\mathbb{R}, w)}$ , we construct a non-commutative Fredholm symbol calculus and give a Fredholm criterion for the operators ${A \in \mathfrak{A}_{p,w}}$ .     

Explicit Matrix Realization of Clifford Algebras

In this paper, we construct associative subalgebras ${{L_{2}}{n}(\mathbb{R})}$ of the real ${2^{n} \times 2^{n}}$ matrix algebra ${{M_{2}}{n}(\mathbb{R})}$ , which is isomorphic to the real Clifford algebra ${C \ell_{0},n}$ for every ${n \in N}$ .     

Uniqueness of integrable solutions to {\nabla \zeta=G \zeta, \zeta|_\Gamma = 0} for integrable tensor coefficients G and applications to elasticity

Let ${\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{N}}$ be a Lipschitz domain and Γ be a relatively open and non-empty subset of its boundary ${\partial\Omega}$ . We show that the solution to the linear first-order system $$\nabla \zeta = G\zeta, \, \, \zeta|_\Gamma = 0 \quad \quad \quad (1)$$ is unique if ${G \in \textsf{L}^{1}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{(N \times N) \times N})}$ and ${\zeta \in \textsf{W}^{1,1}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{N})}$ . As a consequence, we prove $$||| \cdot ||| : \textsf{C}_{o}^{\infty}(\Omega, \Gamma; \mathbb{R}^{3}) \rightarrow [0, \infty), \, \, u \mapsto \parallel {\rm sym}(\nabla uP^{-1})\parallel_{\textsf{L}^{2}(\Omega)}$$ to be a norm for ${P \in \textsf{L}^{\infty}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3})}$ with Curl ${P \in \textsf{L}^{p}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3})}$ , Curl ${P^{-1} \in \textsf{L}^{q}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3 \times 3})}$ for some p, q > 1 with 1/p + 1/q = 1 as well as det ${P \geq c^+ > 0}$ . We also give a new and different proof for the so-called ‘infinitesimal rigid displacement lemma’ in curvilinear coordinates: Let ${\Phi \in \textsf{H}^{1}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3})}$ satisfy sym ${(\nabla\Phi^\top\nabla\Psi) = 0}$ for some ${\Psi \in \textsf{W}^{1,\infty}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3}) \cap \textsf{H}^{2}(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^{3})}$ with det ${\nabla\Psi \geq c^+ > 0}$ . Then, there exist a constant translation vector ${a \in \mathbb{R}^{3}}$ and a constant skew-symmetric matrix ${A \in \mathfrak{so}(3)}$ , such that ${\Phi = A\Psi + a}$ .     

Normal Singular Integral Operators with Cauchy Kernel on L 2

Let α and β be functions in ${L^\infty(\mathbb{T})}$ , where ${\mathbb{T}}$ is the unit circle. Let P denote the orthogonal projection from ${L^2(\mathbb{T})}$ onto the Hardy space ${H^2(\mathbb{T})}$ , and Q = I ? P, where I is the identity operator on ${L^2(\mathbb{T})}$ . This paper is concerned with the singular integral operators S _α,β on ${L^2(\mathbb{T})}$ of the form S _α,β f = αPf + βQf, for ${f \in L^2(\mathbb{T})}$ . In this paper, we study the normality of S _α,β which is related to the Brown–Halmos theorem for the normal Toeplitz operator on ${H^2(\mathbb{T})}$ .     

Generalized Complex Spherical Harmonics, Frame Functions, and Gleason Theorem

Consider a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space ${\mathcal{H}}$ , with ${dim(\mathcal{H}) \geq 3}$ , define ${\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}):= \{x\in \mathcal{H} \:|\: \|x\|=1\}}$ , and let ${\nu_\mathcal{H}}$ be the unique regular Borel positive measure invariant under the action of the unitary operators in ${\mathcal{H}}$ , with ${\nu_\mathcal{H}(\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}))=1}$ . We prove that if a complex frame function ${f : \mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H})\to \mathbb{C}}$ satisfies ${f \in \mathbb{L}^2(\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}), \nu_\mathcal{H})}$ , then it verifies Gleason’s statement: there is a unique linear operator ${A: \mathcal{H} \to \mathcal{H}}$ such that ${f(u) = \langle u| A u\rangle}$ for every ${u \in \mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}).\,A}$ is Hermitean when f is real. No boundedness requirement is thus assumed on f a priori.     

Lax embeddings of the Hermitian unital

In this paper, we prove that every lax generalized Veronesean embedding of the Hermitian unital ${\mathcal{U}}$ of ${\mathsf{PG}(2,\mathbb{L}), \mathbb{L}}$ a quadratic extension of the field ${\mathbb{K}}$ and ${|\mathbb{K}| \geq 3}$ , in a ${\mathsf{PG}(d,\mathbb{F})}$ , with ${\mathbb{F}}$ any field and d ≥ 7, such that disjoint blocks span disjoint subspaces, is the standard Veronesean embedding in a subgeometry ${\mathsf{PG}(7,\mathbb{K}^{\prime})}$ of ${\mathsf{PG}(7,\mathbb{F})}$ (and d = 7) or it consists of the projection from a point ${p \in \mathcal{U}}$ of ${\mathcal{U}{\setminus} \{p\}}$ from a subgeometry ${\mathsf{PG}(7,\mathbb{K}^{\prime})}$ of ${\mathsf{PG}(7,\mathbb{F})}$ into a hyperplane ${\mathsf{PG}(6,\mathbb{K}^{\prime})}$ . In order to do so, when ${|\mathbb{K}| >3 }$ we strongly use the linear representation of the affine part of ${\mathcal{U}}$ (the line at infinity being secant) as the affine part of the generalized quadrangle ${\mathsf{Q}(4,\mathbb{K})}$ (the solid at infinity being non-singular); when ${|\mathbb{K}| =3}$ , we use the connection of ${\mathcal{U}}$ with the generalized hexagon of order 2.     

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.     

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 ${\mathbb {R}}$ .     

On the Li-Stevi? Integral Type Operators from Weighted Bergman Spaces into β-Zygmund Spaces

For an analytic self-map ?? of the unit disk ${\mathbb{D}}$ and an analytic function g on ${\mathbb{D}}$ , we define the following integral type operators: $$T_{\varphi}^{g}f(z) := \int_{0}^{z} f(\varphi(\zeta))g(\zeta) d\zeta\quad {\rm and}\quad C_{\varphi}^{g}f(z) := \int_{0}^{z}f^{\prime}(\varphi(\zeta))g(\zeta) d\zeta$$ . We give a characterization for the boundedness and compactness of these operators from the weighted Bergman space ${L_{a}^p(dA_{\alpha})}$ into the ??-Zygmund space ${\mathcal{Z}_{\beta}}$ . We will also estimate the essential norm of these type of operators. As an application of results, we characterize the above operator-theoretic properties of Volterra type integral operators and composition operators.     

Two Inner Sequences Based Invariant Subspaces in {{H}^{2} (\mathbb{D}^{2})}

Let M be a shift invariant subspace in the vector-valued Hardy space ${H_{E}^{2}(\mathbb{D})}$ H E 2 ( D ) . The Beurling–Lax–Halmos theorem says that M can be completely characterized by ${\mathcal{B}(E)}$ B ( E ) -valued inner function ${\Theta}$ Θ . When ${E = H^{2}(\mathbb{D}),\,H_{E}^{2}(\mathbb{D})}$ E = H 2 ( D ) , H E 2 ( D ) is the Hardy space on the bidisk ${H^{2}(\mathbb{D}^2)}$ H 2 ( D 2 ) . Recently, Qin and Yang (Proc Am Math Soc, 2013) determines the operator valued inner function ${\Theta(z)}$ Θ ( z ) for two well-known invariant subspaces in ${H^{2}(\mathbb{D}^{2})}$ H 2 ( D 2 ) . This paper generalizes the ${\Theta(z)}$ Θ ( z ) by Qin and Yang (Proc Am Math Soc, 2013) and deal with the structure of ${M = {\Theta}(z)H^{2}(\mathbb{D}^{2})}$ M = Θ ( z ) H 2 ( D 2 ) when M is an invariant subspace in ${H^{2}(\mathbb{D}^{2})}$ H 2 ( D 2 ) . Unitary equivalence, spectrum of the compression operator and core operator are studied in this paper.     

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.     

Comparison of topologies on ⁎-algebras of locally measurable operators

We consider the local measure topology ${t(\mathcal{M})}$ on the ?-algebra ${LS(\mathcal{M})}$ of all locally measurable operators and on the ?-algebra ${S(\mathcal{M},\tau)}$ of all τ-measurable operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra ${\mathcal{M}}$ . If τ is a semifinite but not a finite trace on ${\mathcal{M},}$ then one can consider the τ-local measure topology t _τ l and the weak τ-local measure topology t _{w τ l} . We study relationships between the topology ${t(\mathcal{M})}$ and the topologies t _τ l , t _{w τ l} , and the (o)-topology ${t_o(\mathcal{M})}$ on ${LS_h(\mathcal{M})=\{T\in LS(\mathcal{M}): T^\ast=T\}}$ . We find that the topologies ${t(\mathcal{M})}$ and t _τ l (resp. ${t(\mathcal{M})}$ and t _{w τ l} ) coincide on ${S(\mathcal{M},\tau)}$ if and only if ${\mathcal{M}}$ is finite, and ${t(\mathcal{M})=t_o(\mathcal{M})}$ on ${LS_h(\mathcal{M})}$ holds if and only if ${\mathcal{M}}$ is a σ-finite and finite. Moreover, it turns out that the topology t _{τ l} (resp. t _{w τ l} ) coincides with the (o)-topology on ${S_h(\mathcal{M},\tau)}$ only for finite traces. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the topology ${t(\mathcal{M})}$ to be locally convex (resp., normable). We show that (o)-convergence of sequences in ${LS_h(\mathcal{M})}$ and convergence in the topology ${t(\mathcal{M})}$ coincide if and only if the algebra ${\mathcal{M}}$ is an atomic and finite algebra.     

The Range of the Restriction Map for a Multiplicity Variety in Hörmander Algebras of Entire Functions

Characterizations of interpolating multiplicity varieties for Hörmander algebras ${A_p(\mathbb{C})}$ and ${A^0_p(\mathbb{C})}$ of entire functions were obtained by Berenstein and Li (J Geom Anal 5(1):1–48, 1995) and Berenstein et al. (Can J Math 47(1):28–43, 1995) for a radial subharmonic weight p with the doubling property. In this note we consider the case when the multiplicity variety is not interpolating, we compare the range of the associated restriction map for two weights ${q \leq p}$ and investigate when the range of the restriction map on ${A_p(\mathbb{C})}$ or ${A^0_p(\mathbb{C})}$ contains certain subspaces associated in a natural way with the smaller weight q.     

Extinction profile of the logarithmic diffusion equation

Let ${N \geq 3}$ and u be the solution of u _t = Δ log u in ${\mathbb{R}^N \times (0, T)}$ with initial value u ₀ satisfying ${B_{k_1}(x, 0) \leq u_{0} \leq B_{k_2}(x, 0)}$ for some constants k ₁ > k ₂ > 0 where ${B_k(x, t) = 2(N - 2)(T - t)_{+}^{N/(N - 2)}/(k + (T - t)_{+}^{2/(N - 2)}|x|^{2})}$ is the Barenblatt solution for the equation and ${u_0 - B_{k_0} \in L^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{N})}$ for some constant k ₀ > 0 if ${N \geq 4}$ . We give a new different proof on the uniform convergence and ${L^1(\mathbb{R}^N)}$ convergence of the rescaled function ${\tilde{u}(x, s) = (T - t)^{-N/(N - 2)}u(x/(T - t)^{-1/(N - 2)}, t), s = -{\rm log}(T - t)}$ , on ${\mathbb{R}^N}$ to the rescaled Barenblatt solution ${\tilde{B}_{k_0}(x) = 2(N - 2)/(k_0 + |x|^{2})}$ for some k ₀ > 0 as ${s \rightarrow \infty}$ . When ${N \geq 4, 0 \leq u_0(x) \leq B_{k_0}(x, 0)}$ in ${\mathbb{R}^N}$ , and ${|u_0(x) - B_{k_0}(x, 0)| \leq f \in L^{1}(\mathbb{R}^{N})}$ for some constant k ₀ > 0 and some radially symmetric function f, we also prove uniform convergence and convergence in some weighted L ¹ space in ${\mathbb{R}^N}$ of the rescaled solution ${\tilde{u}(x, s)}$ to ${\tilde{B}_{k_0}(x)}$ as ${s \rightarrow \infty}$ .     

Spectrum of Functions and Distributions for the Jacobi-Dunkl Transform on {\mathbb{R}}

We establish real Paley-Wiener theorems for the Jacobi-Dunkl transform on ${\mathbb{R}}$ . More precisely, we characterize the functions in the generalized Schwartz space ${\mathcal{S}^{r}_{\alpha , \beta}(\mathbb{R})}$ and in ${L^{p}_{{A}_{\alpha , \beta}} \mathbb{R})}$ whose Jacobi-Dunkl transform has bounded, unbounded, convex and nonconvex support. Finally, we study the spectral problem on the generalized tempered distributions ${\mathcal{S}^{'r}_{\alpha , \beta}(\mathbb{R})}$ .     

Modular Decomposition of the Orlik-Terao Algebra

Let ${\mathcal{A}}$ be a collection of n linear hyperplanes in ${\mathbb{k}^\ell}$ , where ${\mathbb{k}}$ is an algebraically closed field. The Orlik-Terao algebra of ${\mathcal{A}}$ is the subalgebra ${{\rm R}(\mathcal{A})}$ of the rational functions generated by reciprocals of linear forms vanishing on hyperplanes of ${\mathcal{A}}$ . It determines an irreducible subvariety ${Y (\mathcal{A})}$ of ${\mathbb{P}^{n-1}}$ . We show that a flat X of ${\mathcal{A}}$ is modular if and only if ${{\rm R}(\mathcal{A})}$ is a split extension of the Orlik-Terao algebra of the subarrangement ${\mathcal{A}_X}$ . This provides another refinement of Stanley’s modular factorization theorem [34] and a new characterization of modularity, similar in spirit to the fibration theorem of [27]. We deduce that if ${\mathcal{A}}$ is supersolvable, then its Orlik-Terao algebra is Koszul. In certain cases, the algebra is also a complete intersection, and we characterize when this happens.     

The modal logic of {\beta(\mathbb{N})}

Let ${\beta(\mathbb{N})}$ denote the Stone–?ech compactification of the set ${\mathbb{N}}$ of natural numbers (with the discrete topology), and let ${\mathbb{N}^\ast}$ denote the remainder ${\beta(\mathbb{N})-\mathbb{N}}$ . We show that, interpreting modal diamond as the closure in a topological space, the modal logic of ${\mathbb{N}^\ast}$ is S4 and that the modal logic of ${\beta(\mathbb{N})}$ is S4.1.2.
