Isometric representations of some quotients ofH ∞ of an annulus

Let denote an annulus,E a finite subset of with at least three elements, and the ideal of functions in which vanish at the points ofE. The quotient does not have a completely isometric representation on a finite dimensional Hilbert space. This complements a result of [11] which implies that the quotient has an isometric representation on a Hilbert space of dimension twice the cardinality ofE.     

Einige Bemerkungen zum Goldbach'schen Problem

By combinatorial means the authors show the existence of thin sub-sets of primes, useful for Goldbach decompositions. For example, there is a set of primes with , such that all butO(x(ln x)^–A) even integersnx can be written as .

Given a sequence ( _n ) _n in with there are functions such that , is a dense subset of , and the set of functions with this property is residual in . We will show that in and some related Banach spaceX there are functionsf with is dense in , and we will give a sufficient condition when the set of such functions is residual inX.     

On posets with isomorphic interval posets

Let be a partially ordered set, Int the system of all (nonempty) intervals of partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion . We are interested in partially ordered sets with Int isomorphic to Int . We are going to show that they correspond to couples of binary relations on A satisfying some conditions. If is a directed partially ordered set, the only with Int isomorphic to Int are corresponding to direct decompositions of ( denotes the dual of . The present results include those presented in the paper [11] by V. Slavík. Systems of intervals, particularly of lattices, have been investigated by many authors, cf. [1]–[11].     

Limiting Laws for Entrance Times of Critical Mappings of a Circle

A renormalization group transformation R ₁ has a single stable point in the space of the analytic circle homeomorphisms with a single cubic critical point and with the rotation number (the golden mean). Let a homeomorphism T be the C ¹-conjugate of . We let denote the sequence of distribution functions of the time of the kth entrance to the nth renormalization interval for the homeomorphism T. We prove that for any , the sequence has a finite limiting distribution function , which is continuous in , and singular on the interval [0,1]. We also study the sequence for k>1.     

On some properties of the metric subalgebras ofℓ ∞

The objects studied are the subalgebras of which contain c_o. These are isometrically isomorphic to the algebras C( ) where is a compactification of a discrete denumerable set N . It is shown: 1) If is metric then there is a projection of norm 1, P: C( ) C( ) with kernel c_o defined by PF = f o where is a retraction of onto = – N . 2) If is metric, then the group of homeomorphisms of is isomorphic to a complete group of permutations of the natural numbers . 3) The group of homeomorphisms of a compact metric space is the homomorphic image of a complete group of permutations of ("complete" means "no outer automorphisms, trivial center").     

Hypersurfaces of restricted type in Minkowski space

A submanifold M _n ^r of Minkowski space is said to be of restricted type if its shape operator with respect to the mean curvature vector is the restriction of a fixed linear transformation of to the tangent space of M _n ^r at every point of M _n ^r . In this paper we completely classify hypersurfaces of restricted type in . More precisely, we prove that a hypersurface of is of restricted type if and only if it is either a minimal hypersurface, or an open part of one of the following hypersurfaces: S ^k × , S _k ¹ × , H ^k × , S _n ¹ , H ⁿ , with 1kn–1, or an open part of a cylinder on a plane curve of restricted type.This work was done when the first and fourth authors were visiting Michigan State University.Aangesteld Navorser N.F.W.O., Belgium.

Additive L-theory

The cobordism groups of quadratic Poincaré complexes in an additive category with involution are identified with the Wall L-groups of quadratic forms and formations in , generalizing earlier work for modules over a ring with involution by avoiding kernels and cokernels.

Tensor ideals in the category of tilting modules

We study the tensor category of tilting modules over a quantum groupU _q with divided powers. The setX ₊ of dominant weights is a union of closed alcoves numbered by the elementswW ^f of a certain subset of affine Weyl groupW. G. Lusztig and N. Xi defined a partition ofW ^f into canonical right cells and the right order _R on the set of cells. For a cellAW ^f we consider a full subcategory formed by direct sums of tilting modulesQ() with highest weights . We prove that is a tensor ideal in , generalizing H. Andersen's theorem about the ideal of negligible modules which in our notations is nothing else then . The proof is an application of a recent result by W. Soergel who has computed the characters of tilting modules.This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Civilian Research and Development Foundation under Award No. RM1-265.     

SU2ℍ als Kollineationsgruppe von sechzehndimensionalen lokalkompakten Translationsebenen

As a contribution to a classification of all sixteen-dimensional translation planes whose collineation group has dimension at least 38, this paper deals with the case that contains a subgroup (locally) isomorphic to SU₂Spin₅. Under various further assumptions, it is shown that such a plane satisfying dim 38 is necessarily isomorphic to the classical plane over the octonions.The complete classification will reveal that these further assumptions may in fact be omitted, except for the case that even contains a subgroup isomorphic to Spin₇. The latter planes have been explicitly determined in previous papers.

Stochastic Partial Differential Equations on Manifolds~II. Nonlinear Filtering

The conditional law of an unobservable component x(t) of a diffusion (x(t),y(t)) given the observations {y(s):s[0,t]} is investigated when x(t) lives on a submanifold of . The existence of the conditional density with respect to a given measure on is shown under fairly general conditions, and the analytical properties of this density are characterized in terms of the Sobolev spaces used in the first part of this series.

Topological and bornological characterisations of ideals in von Neumann algebras: I

Suppose is a von Neumann algebra on a Hilbert space and is any ideal in . We determine a topology on , for which the members of that are to norm continuous are exactly those in ; and a bornology on such that the elements of which map the unit ball to an element of , equivalently those members of that are norm to bounded, are exactly those in . This is achieved via analogues of the notions of injectivity and surjectivity in the theory of operator ideals on Banach spaces.

Summary Let (, , P) be a complete probability space; let _t0 be an increasing right-continuous family of -complete sub--fields of ; let be a sequence of semimartingales. Assume that for all positive t and for all bounded predictable processes H, the r.v.'s converge in probability to a limit J(t, H) when n tends to infinity. Then there exists a semimartingale X such that, for all t and H, J(t, H)= .
