Bilinear decompositions for the product space

In this paper, we improve a recent result by Li and Peng on products of functions in and , where is a Schrödinger operator with V satisfying an appropriate reverse Hölder inequality. More precisely, we prove that such products may be written as the sum of two continuous bilinear operators, one from into , the other one from into , where the space is the set of distributions f whose grand maximal function satisfies      

Determinants of classical SG‐pseudodifferential operators

We introduce a generalized trace functional TR in the spirit of Kontsevich and Vishik's canonical trace for classical SG‐pseudodifferential operators on and suitable manifolds, using a finite‐part integral regularization technique. This allows us to define a zeta‐regularized determinant for parameter‐elliptic operators , , . For , the asymptotics of as and of as are derived. For suitable pairs we show that coincides with the so‐called relative determinant .     

On unique continuation for Schrödinger operators of fractional and higher orders

In this note we study the property of unique continuation for solutions of , where V is in a function class of potentials including for . In particular, when , our result gives a unique continuation theorem for the fractional Schrödinger operator in the full range of α values.     

Pre‐Hilbert spaces with anomalous splitting and orthogonally‐closed subspace structures

Four classes of closed subspaces of an inner product space S that can naturally replace the lattice of projections in a Hilbert space are: the complete/cocomplete subspaces , the splitting subspaces , the quasi‐splitting subspaces and the orthogonally‐closed subspaces . It is well‐known that in general the algebraic structure of these families differ remarkably and they coalesce if and only if S is a Hilbert space. It is also known that when S is a hyperplane in its completion i.e. then and . On the other extreme, when i.e. then and . Motivated by this and in contrast to it, we show that in general the codimension of S in bears very little relation to the properties of these families. In particular, we show that the equalities and can hold for inner product spaces with arbitrary codimension in . At the end we also contribute to the study of the algebraic structure of by testing it for the Riesz interpolation property. We show that may fail to enjoy the Riesz interpolation property in both extreme situations when S is “very small” (i.e. and when S is ‘very big’ (i.e. .

The results extend and improve some known results in the literature on higher order nonlinear dynamic equations.     

Fractional integration operators of variable order: continuity and compactness properties

Let be a Lebesgue‐almost everywhere positive function. We consider the Riemann‐Liouville operator of variable order defined by as an operator from to . Our first aim is to study its continuity properties. For example, we show that is always bounded (continuous) in provided that . Surprisingly, this becomes false for . In order to be bounded in L₁[0, 1], the function has to satisfy some additional assumptions. In the second, central part of this paper we investigate compactness properties of . We characterize functions for which is a compact operator and for certain classes of functions we provide order‐optimal bounds for the dyadic entropy numbers .     

Common properties of bounded linear operators AC and BA: Spectral theory

Let X, Y be Banach spaces, and B, be bounded linear operators satisfying the operator equation . Recently, as extensions of Jacobson's lemma, Corach, Duggal and Harte studied common properties of and in algebraic viewpoint and also obtained some topological analogues. In this note, we continue to investigate common properties of AC and BA from the viewpoint of spectral theory. In particular, we give an affirmative answer to one question posed by Corach et al. by proving that has closed range if and only if has closed range.     

Volume estimates for sections of certain convex bodies

This paper deals with volume estimates for hyperplane sections of the simplex and for m‐codimensional sections of powers of m‐dimensional Euclidean balls. In the first part we consider sections through the centroid of the n‐dimensional regular simplex. We state a volume formula and give a lower bound for the volume of sections through the centroid. In the second part we study the extremal volumes of m‐codimensional sections “perpendicular” to of unit balls in the space for all . We give volume formulas and use them to show that the normal vector (1, 0, …, 0) yields the minimal volume. Furthermore we give an upper bound for the ‐dimensional volumes for natural numbers . This bound is asymptotically attained for the normal vector as .     

Nonlinear differential identities for cnoidal waves

This article presents a family of nonlinear differential identities for the spatially periodic function , which is essentially the Jacobian elliptic function with one non‐trivial parameter . More precisely, we show that this function fulfills equations of the form for all . We give explicit expressions for the coefficients and for given s. Moreover, we show that for any s the set of functions constitutes a basis for . By virtue of our formulas the problem of finding a periodic solution to any nonlinear wave equation reduces to a problem in the coefficients. A finite ansatz exactly solves the KdV equation (giving the well‐known cnoidal wave solution) and the Kawahara equation. An infinite ansatz is expected to be especially efficient if the equation to be solved can be considered a perturbation of the KdV equation.     

Uniqueness results for semilinear elliptic systems on

In this paper we establish uniqueness criteria for positive radially symmetric finite energy solutions of semilinear elliptic systems of the form As an application we consider the nonlinear Schrödinger system for and exponents q which satisfy in case and in case . Generalizing the results of Wei and Yao for we find new sufficient conditions and necessary conditions on such that precisely one positive solution exists. Our results dealing with the special case are optimal. Finally, an application to a multi‐component nonlinear Schrödinger system is given.

It will be proved an existence and location result in presence of non ordered lower and upper solutions.     

On convolution in weighted ‐spaces

A distributional generalization of Young's inequality was stated by L. Schwartz. It asserts that convolution yields a continuous bilinear map if A generalization to the weighted ‐spaces in the form was given by N. Ortner and the author in 1989. By means of interpolation theory, we improve this result with respect to the image space under certain restrictions on μ and ν. This implies limit relations in for the Poisson kernel and yields a solution of the Dirichlet problem for the half‐space with boundary values in the space By this we generalize a former result of J. Alvarez, M. Guzmán‐Partida and S. Pérez‐Esteva referring to the special case of      

Precise rates of the first moment convergence in the LIL for NA sequences

Let be a strictly stationary sequence of negatively associated random variables with zero mean and finite variance. We set and , . If , then for any , we show the precise rates of the first moment convergence in the law of the iterated logarithm for a kind of weighted infinite series of and as , and as .     

Cohomological characterisation of monads

Let X be an n‐dimensional smooth projective variety with an n‐block collection , with , of coherent sheaves on X that generate the bounded derived category . We give a cohomological characterisation of torsion‐free sheaves on X that are the cohomology of monads of the form where . We apply the result to get a cohomological characterisation when X is the projective space, the smooth hyperquadric or the Fano threefold V₅. We construct a family of monads on a Segre variety and apply our main result to this family.     

Lorentz spaces with variable exponents

We introduce Lorentz spaces and with variable exponents. We prove several basic properties of these spaces including embeddings and the identity . We also show that these spaces arise through real interpolation between and . Furthermore, we answer in a negative way the question posed in 12 whether the Marcinkiewicz interpolation theorem holds in the frame of Lebesgue spaces with variable integrability.     

On the ‐action on G‐semistable locally free sheaves on

We show that the divisor of jumping lines of any , the moduli space of Gieseker‐semistable locally free sheaves of rank 2 on with , is reduced for . By a lemma of Artamkin this implies, that there are exactly ‐orbits in , the subset of those , which are trivial at a certain line .
