Equivalence of regularity for the Bergman projection and the\bar \partial-neumann operator

A necessary and sufficient condition for regularity of the -Neumann operator on (0,q)-forms in a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain in Cⁿ is that the orthogonal projections onto -closed forms of degrees (0,q−1), (0,q), and (0,q+1) all be regular.

On some generalizations of the factorization method

The classical factorization method reduces the study of a system of ordinary differential equations U_t=[U₊, U] to solving algebraic equations. Here U(t) belongs to a Lie algebra which is the direct sum of its subalgebras and , where “+” signifies the projection on . We generalize this method to the case . The corresponding quadratic systems are reducible to a linear system with variable coefficients. It is shown that the generalized version of the factorization method can also be applied to Liouville equation-type systems of partial differential equations.

A class of multipliers for $$\mathcal{W}^ \bot $$

Let denote the class of ergodic probability preserving transformations which are disjoint from every weakly mixing system. Let be the class of multipliers for , i.e. ergodic transformations whose all ergodic joinings with any element of are also in . Fix an ergodic rotationT, a mildly mixing actionS of a locally compact second countable groupG and an ergodic cocycle ϕ forT with values inG. The main result of the paper is a sufficient (and also necessary by [LeP] whenG is countable Abelian andS is Bernoullian) condition for the skew product build fromT, ϕ andS to be an element of . Moreover, the self-joinings of such extensions ofT are described with an application to study semisimple extensions of rotations.

Quantum duality in quantum deformations

In accordance with the quantum duality principle, the twisted algebra is equivalent to the quantum group and has two preferred bases: one inherited from the universal enveloping algebra and the other generated by coordinate functions of the dual Lie group . We show howthe transformation can be explicitly obtained for any simple Lie algebra and a factorable chain of extended Jordanian twists. In the algebra , we introduce a natural vector grading , compatible with the adjoint representation of the algebra. Passing to the dual-group coordinates allows essentially simplifying the costructure of the deformed Hopf algebra , considered as a quantum group . The transformation can be used to construct new solutions of the twist equations. We construct a parameterized family of extended Jordanian deformations and study it in terms of ; we find new realizations of the parabolic twist.

LetW be an open Riemann surface and ap-sheeted (1<p<∞) unlimited covering surface ofW. Denote by Δ¹ (resp., ) the minimal Martin boundary ofW (resp., ). For ζ ∈ Δ, let ζ be the (cardinal) number of the set of pionts which lie over ζ and the class of open connected subsetsM ofW such thatM∪{ζ} is a minimal fine neighborhood of ζ. Our main result is the following: , where is the number of components of π^-1 M and π is the projection of ontoW. Moreover, some applications of the above results are discussed whenW is the unit disc.

Dispersion of Lagrangian trajectories in a random large-scale velocity field

We study the distribution of the distance R(t) between two Lagrangian trajectories in a spatially smooth turbulent velocity field with an arbitrary correlation time and a non-Gaussian distribution. There are two dimensionless parameters, the degree of deviation from the Gaussian distribution α and β=τD, where τ is the velocity correlation time and D is a characteristic velocity gradient. Asymptotically, R(t) has a lognormal distribution characterized by the mean runaway velocity and the dispersion Δ. We use the method of higher space dimensions d to estimate and Δ for different values of α and β. It was shown previously that for β≪ 1 and for β≫ 1. The estimate of Δ is then nonuniversal and depends on details of the two-point velocity correlator. Higher-order velocity correlators give an additional contribution to Δ estimated as αD²τ for β≪1 and αβ/τ for β≫1. For α above some critical value σ_cr, the values of and Δ are determined by higher irreducible correlators of the velocity gradient, and our approach loses its applicability. This critical value can be estimated as for β≪1 and for β≫1. Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 122, No. 3, pp. 456–467, March, 2000.

R-Matrix quantization of the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Schneider model

It is shown that the classical L-operator algebra of the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Schneider model can be realized as a subalgebra of the algebra of functions on the cotangent bundle over the centrally extended current group in two dimensions. It is governed by two dynamic τ and -matrices satisfying a closed system of equations. The corresponding quantum R- and -matrices are found as solutions to quantum analogues of these equations. We present the quantum L-operator algebra and show that the system of equations for R and arises as the compatibility condition for this algebra. It turns out that the R-matrix is twist-equivalent to the Felder elliptic R^F-matrix, with playing the role of the twist. The simplest representation of the quantum L-operator algebra corresponding to the elliptic Ruijsenaars-Schneider model is obtained. The connection of the quantum L-operator algebra to the fundamental relation R^B LL=LLR^B with the Belavin elliptic R-matrix is established. As a by-product of our construction, we find a new N-parameter elliptic solution to the classical Yang-Baxter equation. This paper was written at the request of the Editorial Board.

A new class of contact riemannian manifolds

N. Tanaka ([10]) defined the canonical affine connection on a nondegenerate integrable CR manifold. In the present paper, we introduce a new class of contact Riemannian manifolds satisfying (C) ( for any unit -geodesic ( , where is the generalized Tanaka connection. In particular, when the associated CR structure of a given contact Riemannian manifold is integrable we have a structure theorem and find examples which are neither Sasakian nor locally symmetric but satisfy the condition (C).

A flow built under a step function with a multi-step Markov partition on the base is a direct product of a Bernoulli flow with a finite rotation. A of the flows in this family cannot have two irrationally related rotation factors. of this family is shown to consist of all direct products of Bernoulli flows and flows of rational pure point spectrum with respect to some number.     

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.     

The limits in\bar d of multi-step Markov chainsof multi-step Markov chains

The of the class of multi-step Markov chains is shown to consist of all direct products of Bernoulli processes with processes of rational pure point spectrum. The class of processes that are approached in by their canonical multi-step Markov approximations is also studied. It is found to be strictly smaller than the former class, dense in it, and characterized within it by a certain (noninvariant) property of its rotation factors.     

Topological and metric product\mathbb{Z}^d -actions and their applications-actions and their applications

We show that for a -action Ψ being the Kronecker sum of a symbolic strictly ergodic -actionT and a Chacon -actionS, the rank (covering number) of Ψ is the same as that forT. Using this result we construct, for a given natural numberr≥2 and a real numberb∈(0,1) withr\b≥1, a -action with rankr, covering numberb and a simple spectrum. On the other hand, for any positive integersr, m with 1≤m≤r≤∞ we construct a -action with rankr and spectral multiplicitym.     

Primitive systems of elements in the variety\mathfrak{A}\mathfrak{N}_2 and some locally finite varieties of groupsand some locally finite varieties of groups

Part of any basis of a relatively free group in the variety is called a primitive system of elements. We provide a criterion of being primitive for , where is a variety of Abelian groups satisfying x^m=1, and a variety generated by a finite group. Let be a variety of nilpotent groups of class ≤c. It is proved that, for the group , the property of being primitive for an element g is stronger than the condition of being unimodular on a vector composed of values of Fox derivatives in the ring . The group is not residually finite whenever a system of elements is primitive. Supported by RFFR grant No. 96-01-01948.

Extension theory approach to scattering and annihilation in the\bar pd system

We consider the problems of three-particle scattering and annihilation in a system of three strongly interacting charged particles ( pn). We propose a model for the elastic scattering and the breakup process in the nucleon channel as well as for the annihilation into mesons. The mathematical foundation of the model is the extension theory of symmetrical operators. In the framework of this model, we construct the modified integral Faddeev equations with energy-dependent interactions taking the annihilation processes into account. These equations are uniquely resolvable for suitable classes of functions. On this basis, we deduce the corresponding differential Faddeev equations, construct asymptotic boundary conditions for wave function components, and formulate boundary problems for a system composed of nucleonic and mesonic channels. The results obtained are applied to scattering and annihilation processes in the three-particle system .
