On Bounded Positive(m,p)-Circle Domains

Let D be a bounded positive(m, p)-circle domain in C~2. The authors prove that if dim(Iso(D)~0) = 2, then D is holomorphically equivalent to a Reinhardt domain; if dim(Iso(D)~0) = 4, then D is holomorphically equivalent to the unit ball in C~2. Moreover,the authors prove the Thullen's classification on bounded Reinhardt domains in C~2 by the Lie group technique.     

Characterization of convex domains in ℂ<Superscript>2</Superscript> with non-compact automorphism group

In the field of several complex variables, the Greene-Krantz Conjecture, whose consequences would be far reaching, has yet to be proven. The conjecture is as follows: Let D be a smoothly bounded domain in ?ⁿ. Suppose there exists {g _j} ? Aut(D) such that {g _j(z)} accumulates at a boundary point p ∈ ?D for some z ∈ D. Then ?D is of finite type at p. In this paper, we prove the following result, yielding further evidence to the probable veracity of this important conjecture: Let D be a bounded convex domain in ?² with C ² boundary. Suppose that there is a sequence {g _j} ? Aut(D) such that {g _j(z)} accumulates at a boundary point for some point z ∈ D. Then if p ∈ ?D is such an orbit accumulation point, ?D contains no non-trivial analytic variety passing through p.     

Sturm–Liouville problems in weighted spaces in domains with non-smooth edges. II

We consider a (generally, noncoercive) mixed boundary value problem in a bounded domain D of Rⁿ for a second order elliptic differential operator A(x, ?). The differential operator is assumed to be of divergent form in D and the boundary operator B(x, ?) is of Robin type on ?D. The boundary of D is assumed to be a Lipschitz surface. Besides, we distinguish a closed subset Y ? ?D and control the growth of solutions near Y. We prove that the pair (A, B) induces a Fredholm operator L in suitable weighted spaces of Sobolev type, the weight function being a power of the distance to the singular set Y. Moreover, we prove the completeness of root functions related to L.     

The Cauchy problem for operators with injective symbol in the Lebesgue space <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript> in a domain

Let D be a bounded domain in ? ⁿ (n ≥ 2) with infinitely smooth boundary ?D. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the Cauchy problem to be solvable in the Lebesgue space L ²(D) in D for an arbitrary differential operator A having an injective principal symbol. Furthermore, using bases with double orthogonality, we construct Carleman’s formula that restores a (vector-)function in L ²(D) from the Cauchy data given on a relatively open connected set Γ ? ?D and the values Au in D whenever the data belong to L ²(Γ) and L ²(D) respectively.     

Sturm–Liouville problems in weighted spaces in domains with nonsmooth edges. I

We consider (in general noncoercive) mixed problems in a bounded domain D in ? ⁿ for a second-order elliptic partial differential operator A(x, ?). It is assumed that the operator is written in divergent form in D, the boundary operator B(x, ?) is the restriction of a linear combination of the function and its derivatives to ?D and the boundary of D is a Lipschitz surface. We separate a closed set Y ? ?D and control the growth of solutions near Y. We prove that the pair (A,B) induces a Fredholm operator L in suitable weighted spaces of Sobolev type, where the weight is a power of the distance to the singular set Y. Finally, we prove the completeness of the root functions associated with L.The article consists of two parts. The first part published in the present paper, is devoted to exposing the theory of the special weighted Sobolev–Slobodetskii? spaces in Lipschitz domains. We obtain theorems on the properties of these spaces; namely, theorems on the interpolation of these spaces, embedding theorems, and theorems about traces. We also study the properties of the weighted spaces defined by some (in general) noncoercive forms.     

Spectral asymptotics of a nonself-adjoint elliptic differential operator with an indefinite weight function

In the present paper, we compute the leading term of the asymptotics of the angular eigenvalue distribution function of the problem Au = λω(x)u(x) in a bounded domain Ω ? R ⁿ , where A is an elliptic differential operator of order 2m with domain D(A) ? W _m ^2m (Ω). The weight function ω(x) (x ∈ Ω) is indefinite and can also take zero values on a set of positive measure.     

Mappings connected with the gradient of conformal radius

In this paper we prove the following conformity criterion for the gradient of conformal radius ?R(D, z) of a convex domain D: the boundary ?D has to be a circumference. We calculate coefficients K(r) for K(r)-quasiconformal mappings ?R(D(r), z), D(r) ? D, 0 < r < 1, and complete the results obtained by F. G. Avkhadiev and K.-J. Wirths for the structure of boundary elements of quasiconformal mappings of the domain D.     

Endomorphism Algebras of 2-term Silting Complexes

We study possible values of the global dimension of endomorphism algebras of 2-term silting complexes. We show that for any algebra A whose global dimension gl.dim A ≤ 2 and any 2-term silting complex P in the bounded derived category D ^b (A) of A, the global dimension of \(\text {End}_{{D^b(A)}}(\mathbf {P})\) is at most 7. We also show that for each n > 2, there is an algebra A with gl.dim A = n such that D ^b (A) admits a 2-term silting complex P with \(\mathrm {gl. dim~}\text {End}_{{D^b(A)}}(\mathbf {P})\) infinite.     

Conformal invariants associated with quadratic differentials

We associate a functional of pairs of simply-connected regions D₂ ? D₁ to any quadratic differential on D₁ with specified singularities. This functional is conformally invariant, monotonic, and negative. Equality holds if and only if the inner domain is the outer domain minus trajectories of the quadratic differential. This generalizes the simply-connected case of results of Z. Nehari [20], who developed a general technique for obtaining inequalities for conformal maps and domain functions from contour integrals and the Dirichlet principle for harmonic functions. Nehari’s method corresponds to the special case that the quadratic differential is of the form (?q)² for a singular harmonic function q on D₁.As an application we give a one-parameter family of monotonic, conformally invariant functionals which correspond to growth theorems for bounded univalent functions. These generalize and interpolate the Pick growth theorems, which appear in a conformally invariant form equivalent to a two-point distortion theorem of W. Ma and D. Minda [16].     

Removable Singularities of Solutions of the Minimal Surface Equation

Suppose that G is a bounded domain in ? ⁿ (n ? 2), E ≠ G is a relatively closed set in G, and 0 < α < 1. We prove that E is removable for solutions of the minimal surface equation in the class C ^1,α(G)_loc if and only if the (n ? 1 + α)-dimensional Hausdorff measure of E is zero.     

Calculation of Geometric Probabilities Using Covariogram of Convex Bodies

In the paper, a formula to calculate the probability that a random segment L(ω, u) in R ⁿ with a fixed direction u and length l lies entirely in the bounded convex body D ? R ⁿ (n ≥ 2) is obtained in terms of covariogram of the body D. For any dimension n ≥ 2, a relationship between the probability P(L(ω, u) ? D) and the orientation-dependent chord length distribution is also obtained. Using this formula, we obtain the explicit form of the probability P(L(ω, u) ? D) in the cases where D is an n-dimensional ball (n ≥ 2), or a regular triangle on the plane.     

Catenoidal Layers for the Allen-Cahn Equation in Bounded Domains

This paper presents a new family of solutions to the singularly perturbed Allen-Cahn equation α~2Δu + u(1- u~2) = 0 in a smooth bounded domain Ω R~3, with Neumann boundary condition and α 0 a small parameter. These solutions have the property that as α→ 0, their level sets collapse onto a bounded portion of a complete embedded minimal surface with finite total curvature intersecting ?Ω orthogonally and that is non-degenerate respect to ?Ω. The authors provide explicit examples of surfaces to which the result applies.     

Quasiconformality of the injective mappings transforming spheres to quasispheres

We prove that every injective mapping of a domain \(D \subset \overline {{\mathbb{R}^n}} \) transforming spheres Σ ? D to K-quasispheres (the images of spheres under K-quasiconformal automorphisms of \(\overline {{\mathbb{R}^n}} \)) is K′-quasiconformal with K′ depending only on K and tending to 1 as K → 1. This is a quasiconformal analog of the classical Carathéodory Theorem on the Möbius property of an injective mapping of a domain D ? Rⁿ which sends spheres to spheres.     

The Arc Distortion in QH Inner ψ-uniform （or Convex） Domains in Real Banach Spaces

Let D and D′ be domains in real Banach spaces of dimension at least 2. The main aim of this paper is to study certain arc distortion properties in the quasihyperbolic metric defined in real Banach spaces. In particular, when D′ is a QH inner ψ-uniform domain with ψ being a slow (or a convex domain), we investigate the following: For positive constants c,h,C,M, suppose a homeomorphism f: D → D′ takes each of the 10-neargeodesics in D to (c, h)-solid in D′. Then f is C-coarsely M-Lipschitz in the quasihyperbolic metric. These are generalizations of the corresponding result obtained recently by Väisälä.     

Yamabe-Type Equations on Carnot Groups

This article is concerned with a class of elliptic equations on Carnot groups depending of one real positive parameter and involving a critical nonlinearity. As a special case of our results we prove the existence of at least one nontrivial solution for a subelliptic critical equation defined on a smooth and bounded domain D of the Heisenberg group ? ⁿ = ? ⁿ × ?. Our approach is based on pure variational methods and locally sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous arguments.     

Holomorphic extension of functions along finite families of complex straight lines in an <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-circular domain

We consider the continuous functions on the boundary of a bounded n-circular domain D in ?ⁿ, n > 1, which admit one-dimensional holomorphic extension along a family of complex straight lines passing through finitely many points of D. The question is addressed of the existence of a holomorphic extension of these functions to D.     

On the lower order of mappings with finite length distortion

We study the problem of the so-called lower order for one kind of mappings with finite distortion, actively investigated in the recent 15–20 years.We prove that mappings with finite length distortion f: D → ? ⁿ , n ≥ 2, whose outer dilatation is integrable to the power α > n ? 1 with finite asymptotic limit have lower order bounded from below.     

The existence of eigenvalues for operators acting in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>)

We present conditions that allow us to prove the existence of eigenvalues and characteristic values for operator F(D) ? C(λ): L ²(R ^m ) → L ²(R ^m ), where F(D) is a pseudo-differential operator with a symbol F(iξ) and C(λ): L ²(R ^m ) → L ²(R ^m ) is a linear continuous operator.     

Categorical resolutions of a class of derived categories

We clarify the relation between the subcategory D_(hf)~b(A) of homological finite objects in D~b(A)and the subcategory K~b(P) of perfect complexes in D~b(A), by giving two classes of abelian categories A with enough projective objects such that D_(hf)~b(A) = K~b(P), and finding an example such that D_(hf)~b(A)≠K~b(P). We realize the bounded derived category D~b(A) as a Verdier quotient of the relative derived category D_C~b(A), where C is an arbitrary resolving contravariantly finite subcategory of A. Using this relative derived categories, we get categorical resolutions of a class of bounded derived categories of module categories of infinite global dimension.We prove that if an Artin algebra A of infinite global dimension has a module T with inj.dimT ∞ such that ~⊥T is finite, then D~b(modA) admits a categorical resolution; and that for a CM(Cohen-Macaulay)-finite Gorenstein algebra, such a categorical resolution is weakly crepant.
