Operator-semistable,operator semi-selfdecomposable probability measures and related nested classes on <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic vector spaces

Let V be a finite dimensional p-adic vector space and let τ be an operator in GL(V). A probability measure μ on V is called τ-decomposable or if μ = τ(μ)* ρ for some probability measure ρ on V. Moreover, when τ is contracting, if ρ is infinitely divisible, so is μ, and if ρ is embeddable, so is μ. These two subclasses of are denoted by L ₀(τ) and L ₀ ^#(τ) respectively. When μ is infinitely divisible τ-decomposable for a contracting τ and has no idempotent factors, then it is τ-semi-selfdecomposable or operator semi-selfdecomposable. In this paper, sequences of decreasing subclasses of the above mentioned three classes, , are introduced and several properties and characterizations are studied. The results obtained here are p-adic vector space versions of those given for probability measures on Euclidean spaces.     

On a class of non-uniform average sampling expansions and partial reconstruction in subspaces of L 2(?)

Let ϕ be a function in the Wiener amalgam space W_￥(L₁)\emph{W}_{\infty}(L_1) with a non-vanishing property in a neighborhood of the origin for its Fourier transform [^(f)]\widehat{\phi}, t={t_n}_{n ? \mathbb Z}{\bf \tau}=\{\tau_n\}_{n\in {{\mathbb Z}}} be a sampling set on ℝ and V_f^tV_\phi^{\bf \tau} be a closed subspace of L₂(\mathbbR)L_2(\hbox{\ensuremath{\mathbb{R}}}) containing all linear combinations of τ-translates of ϕ. In this paper we prove that every function f ? V_f^tf\in V_\phi^{\bf \tau} is uniquely determined by and stably reconstructed from the sample set L_f^t(f)={ò_\mathbbR f(t)[`(f(t-t_n))] dt}_{n ? \mathbb Z}L_\phi^{\bf \tau}(f)=\Big\{\int_{\hbox{\ensuremath{\mathbb{R}}}} f(t) \overline{\phi(t-\tau_n)} dt\Big\}_{n\in {{\mathbb Z}}}. As our reconstruction formula involves evaluating the inverse of an infinite matrix we consider a partial reconstruction formula suitable for numerical implementation. Under an additional assumption on the decay rate of ϕ we provide an estimate to the corresponding error.     

The Ground State and the Long-Time Evolution in the CMC Einstein Flow

Let (g, K)(k) be a CMC (vacuum) Einstein flow over a compact three-manifold Σ with non-positive Yamabe invariant (Y(Σ)). As noted by Fischer and Moncrief, the reduced volume ${\mathcal{V}(k)=\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{3}{\rm Vol}_{g(k)}(\Sigma)}Let (g, K)(k) be a CMC (vacuum) Einstein flow over a compact three-manifold Σ with non-positive Yamabe invariant (Y(Σ)). As noted by Fischer and Moncrief, the reduced volume V(k)=(\frac-k3)³Vol_g(k)(S){\mathcal{V}(k)=\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{3}{\rm Vol}_{g(k)}(\Sigma)} is monotonically decreasing in the expanding direction and bounded below by V_inf=(\frac-16Y(S))^\frac32{\mathcal{V}_{\rm \inf}=\left(\frac{-1}{6}Y(\Sigma)\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}. Inspired by this fact we define the ground state of the manifold Σ as “the limit” of any sequence of CMC states {(g _i , K _i )} satisfying: (i) k _i  = −3, (ii) V_iˉ V_inf{\mathcal{V}_{i}\downarrow \mathcal{V}_{\rm inf}}, (iii) Q ₀((g _i , K _i )) ≤ Λ, where Q ₀ is the Bel–Robinson energy and Λ is any arbitrary positive constant. We prove that (as a geometric state) the ground state is equivalent to the Thurston geometrization of Σ. Ground states classify naturally into three types. We provide examples for each class, including a new ground state (the Double Cusp) that we analyze in detail. Finally, consider a long time and cosmologically normalized flow ([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])(s)=((\frac-k3)²g,(\frac-k3)K){(\tilde{g},\tilde{K})(\sigma)=\left(\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{2}g,\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)K\right)}, where s = -ln(-k) ? [a,￥){\sigma=-\ln (-k)\in [a,\infty)}. We prove that if [(E₁)\tilde]=E₁(([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])) ￡ L{\tilde{\mathcal{E}_{1}}=\mathcal{E}_{1}((\tilde{g},\tilde{K}))\leq \Lambda} (where E₁=Q₀+Q₁{\mathcal{E}_{1}=Q_{0}+Q_{1}}, is the sum of the zero and first order Bel–Robinson energies) the flow ([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])(s){(\tilde{g},\tilde{K})(\sigma)} persistently geometrizes the three-manifold Σ and the geometrization is the ground state if Vˉ V_inf{\mathcal{V}\downarrow \mathcal{V}_{\rm inf}}.     

Minimal rotational hypersurfaces in Minkowski (<Emphasis Type="Italic">α</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis>)-space

In Finsler geometry, minimal surfaces with respect to the Busemann-Hausdorff measure and the Holmes-Thompson measure are called BH-minimal and HT-minimal surfaces, respectively. In this paper, we give the explicit expressions of BH-minimal and HT-minimal rotational hypersurfaces generated by plane curves rotating around the axis in the direction of [(b)\tilde]^\sharp{\tilde{\beta}^{\sharp}} in Minkowski (α, β)-space (\mathbbVⁿ⁺¹,[(F_b)\tilde]){(\mathbb{V}^{n+1},\tilde{F_b})} , where \mathbbVⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb{V}^{n+1}} is an (n+1)-dimensional real vector space, [(F_b)\tilde]=[(a)\tilde]f([(b)\tilde]/[(a)\tilde]), [(a)\tilde]{\tilde{F_b}=\tilde{\alpha}\phi(\tilde{\beta}/\tilde{\alpha}), \tilde{\alpha}} is the Euclidean metric, [(b)\tilde]{\tilde{\beta}} is a one form of constant length b:=||[(b)\tilde]||_[(a)\tilde], [(b)\tilde]^\sharp{b:=\|\tilde{\beta}\|_{\tilde{\alpha}}, \tilde{\beta}^{\sharp}} is the dual vector of [(b)\tilde]{\tilde{\beta}} with respect to [(a)\tilde]{\tilde{\alpha}} . As an application, we first give the explicit expressions of the forward complete BH-minimal rotational surfaces generated around the axis in the direction of [(b)\tilde]^\sharp{\tilde{\beta}^{\sharp}} in Minkowski Randers 3-space (\mathbbV³,[(a)\tilde]+[(b)\tilde]){(\mathbb{V}^{3},\tilde{\alpha}+\tilde{\beta})} .     

A New Recursion in the Theory of Macdonald Polynomials

The bigraded Frobenius characteristic of the Garsia-Haiman module M _μ is known [7, 10] to be given by the modified Macdonald polynomial [(H)\tilde]_m[X; q, t]{\tilde{H}_{\mu}[X; q, t]}. It follows from this that, for m\vdash n{\mu \vdash n} the symmetric polynomial ?_p1 [(H)\tilde]_m[X; q, t]{{\partial_{p1}} \tilde{H}_{\mu}[X; q, t]} is the bigraded Frobenius characteristic of the restriction of M _μ from S _n to S _n-1. The theory of Macdonald polynomials gives explicit formulas for the coefficients c _{μ v} occurring in the expansion ?_p1 [(H)\tilde]_m[X; q, t] = ?_{v ? m}c_mv [(H)\tilde]_v[X; q, t]{{\partial_{p1}} \tilde{H}_{\mu}[X; q, t] = \sum_{v \to \mu}c_{\mu v} \tilde{H}_{v}[X; q, t]}. In particular, it follows from this formula that the bigraded Hilbert series F μ (q, t) of M _μ may be calculated from the recursion F_m (q, t) = ?_{v ? m}c_mv F_v (q, t){F_\mu (q, t) = \sum_{v \to \mu}c_{\mu v} F_v (q, t)}. One of the frustrating problems of the theory of Macdonald polynomials has been to derive from this recursion that Fm(q, t) ? N[q, t]{F\mu (q, t) \in \mathbf{N}[q, t]}. This difficulty arises from the fact that the c _{μ v} have rather intricate expressions as rational functions in q, t. We give here a new recursion, from which a new combinatorial formula for F _μ (q, t) can be derived when μ is a two-column partition. The proof suggests a method for deriving an analogous formula in the general case. The method was successfully carried out for the hook case by Yoo in [15].     

On the Number of i.i.d. Samples Required to Observe All of the Balls in an Urn

Suppose an urn contains m distinct balls, numbered 1,...,m, and let τ denote the number of i.i.d. samples required to observe all of the balls in the urn. We generalize the partial fraction expansion type arguments used by Pólya (Z Angew Math Mech 10:96–97, 1930) for approximating \mathbbE(t)\mathbb{E}(\tau) in the case of fixed sample sizes to obtain an approximation of \mathbbE(t)\mathbb{E}(\tau) when the sample sizes are i.i.d. random variables. The approximation agrees with that of Sellke (Ann Appl Probab 5(1):294–309, 1995), who made use of Wald’s equation and a Markov chain coupling argument. We also derive a new approximation of \mathbbV(t)\mathbb{V}(\tau), provide an (improved) bound on the error in these approximations, derive a recurrence for \mathbbE(t)\mathbb{E}(\tau), give a new large deviation type result for tail probabilities, and look at some special cases.     

Smooth and strongly smooth points in symmetric spaces of measurable operators

We investigate the relationships between smooth and strongly smooth points of the unit ball of an order continuous symmetric function space E, and of the unit ball of the space of τ-measurable operators E(M,t){E(\mathcal{M},\tau)} associated to a semifinite von Neumann algebra (M, t){(\mathcal{M}, \tau)}. We prove that x is a smooth point of the unit ball in E(M, t){E(\mathcal{M}, \tau)} if and only if the decreasing rearrangement μ(x) of the operator x is a smooth point of the unit ball in E, and either μ(∞; f) = 0, for the function f ? S_E^×{f\in S_{E^{\times}}} supporting μ(x), or s(x ^*) = 1. Under the assumption that the trace τ on M{\mathcal{M}} is σ-finite, we show that x is strongly smooth point of the unit ball in E(M, t){E(\mathcal{M}, \tau)} if and only if its decreasing rearrangement μ(x) is a strongly smooth point of the unit ball in E. Consequently, for a symmetric function space E, we obtain corresponding relations between smoothness or strong smoothness of the function f and its decreasing rearrangement μ(f). Finally, under suitable assumptions, we state results relating the global properties such as smoothness and Fréchet smoothness of the spaces E and E(M,t){E(\mathcal{M},\tau)}.     

Exact constants in Jackson-type inequalities and exact values of the widths of some classes of functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript>2</Subscript>

On the existence of a p-adic metaplectic Tate-type $\widetilde {\gamma}$-factor

Let \mathbbF\mathbb{F} be a p-adic field, let χ be a character of \mathbbF^*\mathbb{F}^{*}, let ψ be a character of \mathbbF\mathbb{F} and let g_y^-1\gamma_{\psi}^{-1} be the normalized Weil factor associated with a character of second degree. We prove here that one can define a meromorphic function [(g)\tilde](c,s,y)\widetilde{\gamma}(\chi ,s,\psi) via a similar functional equation to the one used for the definition of the Tate γ-factor replacing the role of the Fourier transform with an integration against y·g_y^-1\psi\cdot\gamma_{\psi}^{-1}. It turns out that γ and [(g)\tilde]\widetilde{\gamma} have similar integral representations. Furthermore, [(g)\tilde]\widetilde{\gamma} has a relation to Shahidi‘s metaplectic local coefficient which is similar to the relation γ has with (the non-metalpectic) Shahidi‘s local coefficient. Up to an exponential factor, [(g)\tilde](c,s,y)\widetilde{\gamma}(\chi,s,\psi) is equal to the ratio \fracg(c²,2s,y)g(c,s+\frac12,y)\frac{\gamma(\chi^{2},2s,\psi)}{\gamma(\chi,s+\frac{1}{2},\psi)}.

On Li’s coefficients for the Rankin–Selberg <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>-functions

We define a generalized Li coefficient for the L-functions attached to the Rankin–Selberg convolution of two cuspidal unitary automorphic representations π and π ^′ of GL_m(\mathbbA_F)GL_{m}(\mathbb{A}_{F}) and GL_m^￠(\mathbbA_F)GL_{m^{\prime }}(\mathbb{A}_{F}) . Using the explicit formula, we obtain an arithmetic representation of the n th Li coefficient l_p,p^￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) attached to L(s,p_f×[(p)\tilde]_f^￠)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}^{\prime }) . Then, we deduce a full asymptotic expansion of the archimedean contribution to l_p,p^￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) and investigate the contribution of the finite (non-archimedean) term. Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis (GRH) on non-trivial zeros of L(s,p_f×[(p)\tilde]_f^￠)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}^{\prime }) , the nth Li coefficient l_p,p^￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) is evaluated in a different way and it is shown that GRH implies the bound towards a generalized Ramanujan conjecture for the archimedean Langlands parameters μ _π (v,j) of π. Namely, we prove that under GRH for L(s,p_f×[(p)\tilde]_f)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}) one has |Rem_p(v,j)| ￡ \frac14|\mathop {\mathrm {Re}}\mu_{\pi}(v,j)|\leq \frac{1}{4} for all archimedean places v at which π is unramified and all j=1,…,m.     

The period function of a delay differential equation and an application

We consider the delay differential equation [(x)\dot](t) = - mx(t) + f(x(t - t))\dot x(t) = - \mu x(t) + f(x(t - \tau )), where μ, τ are positive parameters and f is a strictly monotone, nonlinear C ¹-function satisfying f(0) = 0 and some convexity properties. It is well known that for prescribed oscillation frequencies (characterized by the values of a discrete Lyapunov functional) there exists τ* > 0 such that for every τ > τ* there is a unique periodic solution. The period function is the minimal period of the unique periodic solution as a function of τ > τ*. First we show that it is a monotone nondecreasing Lipschitz continuous function of τ with Lipschitz constant 2. As an application of our theorem we give a new proof of some recent results of Yi, Chen and Wu [14] about uniqueness and existence of periodic solutions of a system of delay differential equations.     

Schlicht envelopes of holomorphy and topology

Let Ω be a domain in ${\mathbb{C}^{2}}Let Ω be a domain in \mathbbC²{\mathbb{C}^{2}}, and let p: [(W)\tilde]? \mathbbC²{\pi: \tilde{\Omega}\rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{2}} be its envelope of holomorphy. Also let W￠=p([(W)\tilde]){\Omega'=\pi(\tilde{\Omega})} with i: W\hookrightarrow W￠{i: \Omega \hookrightarrow \Omega'} the inclusion. We prove the following: if the induced map on fundamental groups i_*:p₁(W) ? p₁(W￠){i_{*}:\pi_{1}(\Omega) \rightarrow \pi_{1}(\Omega')} is a surjection, and if π is a covering map, then Ω has a schlicht envelope of holomorphy. We then relate this to earlier work of Fornaess and Zame.     

Coincidence theorems and its applications to equilibrium problems

Given two maps h : X ×K ? \mathbbR{h : X \times K \rightarrow \mathbb{R}} and g : X → K such that, for all x ? X, h(x, g(x)) = 0{x \in X, h(x, g(x)) = 0} , we consider the equilibrium problem of finding [(x)\tilde] ? X{\tilde{x} \in X} such that h([(x)\tilde], g(x)) 3 0{h(\tilde{x}, g(x)) \geq 0} for every x ? X{x \in X} . This question is related to a coincidence problem.     

Model problem for the motion of a compressible, viscous flow with the no-slip boundary condition

We consider the Navier–Stokes equations for the motion of a compressible, viscous, pressureless fluid in the domain W = \mathbbR³₊{\Omega = \mathbb{R}^3_+} with the no-slip boundary conditions. We construct a global in time, regular weak solution, provided that initial density ρ ₀ is bounded and the magnitude of the initial velocity u ₀ is suitably restricted in the norm ||?{r₀(·)}u₀(·)||_L²(W) + ||?u₀(·)||_L²(W){\|\sqrt{\rho_0(\cdot)}{\bf u}_0(\cdot)\|_{L^2(\Omega)} + \|\nabla{\bf u}_0(\cdot)\|_{L^2(\Omega)}}.     

On the 3-Torsion Part of the Homology of the Chessboard Complex

Let 1 ≤ m ≤ n. We prove various results about the chessboard complex M _m,n , which is the simplicial complex of matchings in the complete bipartite graph K _m,n . First, we demonstrate that there is nonvanishing 3-torsion in [(H)\tilde]_d(\sf M_m,n; \mathbb Z){{\tilde{H}_d({\sf M}_{m,n}; {\mathbb Z})}} whenever \fracm+n-43 ￡ d ￡ m-4{{\frac{m+n-4}{3}\leq d \leq m-4}} and whenever 6 ≤ m < n and d = m − 3. Combining this result with theorems due to Friedman and Hanlon and to Shareshian and Wachs, we characterize all triples (m, n, d ) satisfying [(H)\tilde]_d (\sf M_m,n; \mathbb Z) 1 0{{\tilde{H}_d \left({\sf M}_{m,n}; {\mathbb Z}\right) \neq 0}}. Second, for each k ≥ 0, we show that there is a polynomial f _k (a, b) of degree 3k such that the dimension of [(H)\tilde]_k+a+2b-2 (\sf M_{k+a+3b-1,k+2a+3b-1}; \mathbb Z₃){{\tilde{H}_{k+a+2b-2}}\,\left({{\sf M}_{k+a+3b-1,k+2a+3b-1}}; \mathbb Z_{3}\right)}, viewed as a vector space over \mathbbZ₃{\mathbb{Z}_3}, is at most f _k (a, b) for all a ≥ 0 and b ≥ k + 2. Third, we give a computer-free proof that [(H)\tilde]₂ (\sf M_5,5; \mathbb Z) @ \mathbb Z₃{{\tilde{H}_2 ({\sf M}_{5,5}; \mathbb {Z})\cong \mathbb Z_{3}}}. Several proofs are based on a new long exact sequence relating the homology of a certain subcomplex of M _m,n to the homology of M _m-2,n-1 and M _m-2,n-3.     

Compact Toeplitz Operators for Weighted Bergman Spaces on Bounded Symmetric Domains

Let W ì \mathbb C^d{\Omega \subset{\mathbb C}^{d}} be an irreducible bounded symmetric domain of type (r, a, b) in its Harish–Chandra realization. We study Toeplitz operators Tⁿ_g{T^{\nu}_{g}} with symbol g acting on the standard weighted Bergman space H_n²{H_\nu^2} over Ω with weight ν. Under some conditions on the weights ν and ν ₀ we show that there exists C(ν, ν ₀) > 0, such that the Berezin transform [(g)\tilde]_n0{\tilde{g}_{\nu_{0}}} of g with respect to H²_n0{H^2_{\nu_0}} satisfies:

Stability of unitary SK<Subscript>1</Subscript> of Azumaya algebras

For an Azumaya algebra A with center C of rank n ² and a unitary involution τ, we study the stability of the unitary SK₁ under reduction. We show that if R = C ^τ is a Henselian ring with maximal ideal \mathfrakm{\mathfrak{m}} and 2 and n are invertible in R then SK₁(A, t) @ SK₁(A/ \mathfrakm A, overline t){{{\rm SK}_1}(A, \tau) \cong {{\rm SK}_1}(A/ \mathfrak{m} A, overline \tau)}.     

Growth of generalized Temperley–Lieb algebras connected with simple graphs

We prove that the generalized Temperley–Lieb algebras associated with simple graphs Γ have linear growth if and only if the graph Γ coincides with one of the extended Dynkin graphs [(A)\tilde]_n {\tilde A_n} , [(D)\tilde]_n {\tilde D_n} , [(E)\tilde]₆ {\tilde E_6} , or [(E)\tilde]₇ {\tilde E_7} . An algebra TL_{G, t} T{L_{\Gamma, \tau }} has exponential growth if and only if the graph Γ coincides with none of the graphs A_n {A_n} , D_n {D_n} , E_n {E_n} , [(A)\tilde]_n {\tilde A_n} , [(D)\tilde]_n {\tilde D_n} , [(E)\tilde]₆ {\tilde E_6} , and [(E)\tilde]₇ {\tilde E_7} .
