A Classification of Spectrum-determined Circulant Digraphs

Some researchers have proved that ádám’s conjecture is wrong. However, under special conditions, it is right. Let Z_n be a cyclic group of order n and C_n(S) be the circulant digraph of Z_n with respect to S ? Z_n\{0}. In the literature, some people have used a spectral method to solve the isomorphism for the circulants of prime-power order. In this paper, we also use the spectral method to characterize the circulants of order p^aq^bw^c(where p, q and w are all distinct primes), and to make ádám’s conjecture right.     

Liouville type results for a <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Laplace equation with negative exponent

Positive entire solutions of the equation \(\Delta _p u = u^{ - q} in \mathbb{R}^N (N \geqslant 2)\) where 1 < p ≤ N, q > 0, are classified via their Morse indices. It is seen that there is a critical power q = q _c such that this equation has no positive radial entire solution that has finite Morse index when q > q _c but it admits a family of stable positive radial entire solutions when 0 < q ≤ q _c. Proof of the stability of positive radial entire solutions of the equation when 1 < p < 2 and 0 < q ≤ q _c relies on Caffarelli–Kohn–Nirenberg’s inequality. Similar Liouville type result still holds for general positive entire solutions when 2 < p ≤ N and q > q _c. The case of 1 < p < 2 is still open. Our main results imply that the structure of positive entire solutions of the equation is similar to that of the equation with p = 2 obtained previously. Some new ideas are introduced to overcome the technical difficulties arising from the p-Laplace operator.     

Estimation of the depth of reversible circuits consisting of NOT,CNOT and 2-CNOT gates

The paper discusses the asymptotic depth of a reversible circuits consisting of NOT, CNOT and 2-CNOT gates. The reversible circuit depth function D(n, q) is introduced for a circuit implementing a mapping f: Z₂ⁿ → Z₂ⁿ as a function of n and the number q of additional inputs. It is proved that for the case of implementation of a permutation from A(Z₂ⁿ) with a reversible circuit having no additional inputs the depth is bounded as D(n, 0) ? 2ⁿ/(3log₂n). It is also proved that for the case of transformation f: Z₂ⁿ → Z₂ⁿ with a reversible circuit having q₀ ~ 2ⁿ additional inputs the depth is bounded as D(n,q₀) ? 3n.     

Information of orderα and typeβ

Information I_α ^β (Q/P) of orderα and typeβ is introduced and it is shown that for every fixedβ, this information is a monotonic increasing function ofα. It is also shown that information of orderα and type 1 is non-negative when\(\sum\limits_{k = 1}^N { q_k } \geqslant \sum\limits_{k = 1}^N { p_k } \), where (q ₁,q ₂ …,q _N) and (p ₁,p ₂, …,p _N) are generalised probability distributions for Q and P respectively.     

Seifert manifolds and (1, 1)-knots

The aim of this paper is to investigate the relations between Seifert manifolds and (1, 1)-knots. In particular, we prove that each orientable Seifert manifold with invariants

$\{ Oo,0| - 1;\underbrace {(p,q),...,(p,q)}_{n times},(l,l - 1)\} $

has the fundamental group cyclically presented by G _n ((x ₁ ^q ...x _n ^{q l} x _n ^?p ) and, moreover, it is the n-fold strongly-cyclic covering of the lens space L(|nlq ? p|, q) which is branched over the (1, 1)-knot K(q, q(nl ? 2), p ? 2q, p ? q) if p ≥ 2q and over the (1, 1)-knot K(p? q, 2q ? p, q(nl ? 2), p ? q) if p< 2q.

     

Blow-up of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Laplacian evolution equations with variable source power

We study the blow-up and/or global existence of the following p-Laplacian evolution equation with variable source power

$${s_j} = {\beta _j} + \overline {{\beta _{n - j}}}p$$

where Ω is either a bounded domain or the whole space ? ^N , q(x) is a positive and continuous function defined in Ω with 0 < q _? = inf q(x) ? q(x) ? sup q(x) = q+ < ∞. It is demonstrated that the equation with variable source power has much richer dynamics with interesting phenomena which depends on the interplay of q(x) and the structure of spatial domain Ω, compared with the case of constant source power. For the case that Ω is a bounded domain, the exponent p ? 1 plays a crucial role. If q+ > p ? 1, there exist blow-up solutions, while if q ₊ < p ? 1, all the solutions are global. If q _? > p ? 1, there exist global solutions, while for given q _? < p ? 1 < q ₊, there exist some function q(x) and Ω such that all nontrivial solutions will blow up, which is called the Fujita phenomenon. For the case Ω = ? ^N , the Fujita phenomenon occurs if 1 < q _? ? q ₊ ? p ? 1 + p/N, while if q _? > p ? 1 + p/N, there exist global solutions.

     

Frobenius nonclassicality of Fermat curves with respect to cubics

For Fermat curves F: aX ⁿ + bY ⁿ = Z ⁿ defined over F _q , we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for F to be F _q -Frobenius nonclassical with respect to the linear system of plane cubics. In the new F _q -Frobenius nonclassical cases, we determine explicit formulas for the number N _q (F) of F _q -rational points on F. For the remaining Fermat curves, nice upper bounds for N _q (F) are immediately given by the Stöhr–Voloch Theory.     

Stochastic Hamiltonian flows with singular coefficients

In this paper, we study the following stochastic Hamiltonian system in ?^2d (a second order stochastic differential equation):

$$d{\dot X_t} = b({X_t},{\dot X_t})dt + \sigma ({X_t},{\dot X_t})d{W_t},({X_0},{\dot X_0}) = (x,v) \in \mathbb{R}^{2d},$$

where b(x; v) : ?^2d → ?^d and σ(x; v): ?^2d → ?^d ? ?^d are two Borel measurable functions. We show that if σ is bounded and uniformly non-degenerate, and b ∈ H _p ^2/3,0 and ?σ ∈ L^p for some p > 2(2d+1), where H _p ^{α, β} is the Bessel potential space with differentiability indices α in x and β in v, then the above stochastic equation admits a unique strong solution so that (x, v) ? Z_t(x, v) := (X_t, ?_t)(x, v) forms a stochastic homeomorphism flow, and (x, v) ? Z_t(x, v) is weakly differentiable with ess.sup_{x, v} E(sup_{t∈[0, T]} |?Z_t(x, v)|^q) < ∞ for all q ? 1 and T ? 0. Moreover, we also show the uniqueness of probability measure-valued solutions for kinetic Fokker-Planck equations with rough coefficients by showing the well-posedness of the associated martingale problem and using the superposition principle established by Figalli (2008) and Trevisan (2016).

     

Bessel Property of the System of Root Functions of a Second-Order Singular Operator on an Interval

For the system of root functions of an operator defined by the differential operation ?u″ + p(x)u′ + q(x)u, x ∈ G = (0, 1), with complex-valued singular coefficients, sufficient conditions for the Bessel property in the space L₂(G) are obtained and a theorem on the unconditional basis property is proved. It is assumed that the functions p(x) and q(x) locally belong to the spaces L₂ and W₂^?1, respectively, and may have singularities at the endpoints of G such that q(x) = q_R(x) +q′S(x) and the functions q_S(x), p(x), q ₂ ^S (x)w(x), p²(x)w(x), and q_R(x)w(x) are integrable on the whole interval G, where w(x) = x(1 ? x).     

Representation and character varieties of the Baumslag-Solitar groups

Representation and character varieties of the Baumslag–Solitar groups BS(p, q) are analyzed. Irreducible components of these varieties are found, and their dimension is calculated. It is proved that all irreducible components of the representation variety R_n(BS(p, q)) are rational varieties of dimension n², and each irreducible component of the character variety X_n(BS(p, q)) is a rational variety of dimension k ≤ n. The smoothness of irreducible components of the variety R_n^s (BS(p, q)) of irreducible representations is established, and it is proved that all irreducible components of the variety R_n^s (BS(p, q)) are isomorphic to A¹ {0}.     

Lattices generated by joins of the flats in orbits under finite affine-singular symplectic group and its characteristic polynomials

Let ASG(2ν + l, ν;F _q ) be the (2ν + l)-dimensional affine-singular symplectic space over the finite field F _q and ASp_2ν+l,ν (F _q ) be the affine-singular symplectic group of degree 2ν + l over F _q . Let O be any orbit of flats under ASp_2ν+l,ν (F _q ). Denote by L ^J the set of all flats which are joins of flats in O such that O ? L ^J and assume the join of the empty set of flats in ASG(2ν + l, ν;F _q ) is ?. Ordering L ^J by ordinary or reverse inclusion, then two lattices are obtained. This paper firstly studies the inclusion relations between different lattices, then determines a characterization of flats contained in a given lattice L ^J , when the lattices form geometric lattice, lastly gives the characteristic polynomial of L ^J .     

Anisotropic Hardy-Lorentz spaces and their applications

Let p ∈(0, 1], q ∈(0, ∞] and A be a general expansive matrix on Rn. We introduce the anisotropic Hardy-Lorentz space H~(p,q)_A(R~n) associated with A via the non-tangential grand maximal function and then establish its various real-variable characterizations in terms of the atomic and the molecular decompositions, the radial and the non-tangential maximal functions, and the finite atomic decompositions. All these characterizations except the ∞-atomic characterization are new even for the classical isotropic Hardy-Lorentz spaces on Rn.As applications, we first prove that Hp,q A(Rn) is an intermediate space between H~(p1,q1)_A(Rn) and H~(p2,q2)_A(R~n) with 0 p1 p p2 ∞ and q1, q, q2 ∈(0, ∞], and also between H~(p,q1)_A(Rn) and H~(p,q2)_A(R~n) with p ∈(0, ∞)and 0 q1 q q2 ∞ in the real method of interpolation. We then establish a criterion on the boundedness of sublinear operators from H~(p,q)_A(R~n) into a quasi-Banach space; moreover, we obtain the boundedness of δ-type Calder′on-Zygmund operators from H~(p,∞)_A(R~n) to the weak Lebesgue space L~(p,∞)(R~n)(or to H~p_A(R~n)) in the ln λcritical case, from H~(p,q)_A(R~n) to L~(p,q)(R~n)(or to H~(p,q)_A(R~n)) with δ∈(0,(lnλ)/(ln b)], p ∈(1/(1+,δ),1] and q ∈(0, ∞], as well as the boundedness of some Calderon-Zygmund operators from H~(p,q)_A(R~n) to L~(p,∞)(R~n), where b := | det A|,λ_:= min{|λ| : λ∈σ(A)} and σ(A) denotes the set of all eigenvalues of A.     

Regularization of Mickelsson generators for nonexceptional quantum groups

Let g′ ? g be a pair of Lie algebras of either symplectic or orthogonal infinitesimal endomorphisms of the complex vector spaces C ^N?2 ? C ^N and U _q (g′) ? U _q (g) be a pair of quantum groups with a triangular decomposition U _q (g) = U _q (g_-)U _q (g₊)U _q (h). Let Z _q (g, g′) be the corresponding step algebra. We assume that its generators are rational trigonometric functions h ? → U _q (g_±). We describe their regularization such that the resulting generators do not vanish for any choice of the weight.     

Pointwise multipliers for Besov spaces of dominating mixed smoothness-Ⅱ

We continue our investigations on pointwise multipliers for Besov spaces of dominating mixed smoothness. This time we study the algebra property of the classes S_(p,q)~rB(R~d) with respect to pointwise multiplication. In addition, if p≤q, we are able to describe the space of all pointwise multipliers for S_(p,q)~rB(R~d).     

Equalities on the number of conjugacy classes of the Sylow p-subgroups of GL(n,q)

We denote by Gn the group of the upper unitriangular matrices over F_q, the finite field with q = p^t elements, and r(G_n) the number of conjugacy classes of G_n. In this paper, we obtain the value of r(G_n) modulo (q² -1)(q -1). We prove the following equalities     

Improved bounds on the Hadwiger–Debrunner numbers

Let HD _d (p, q) denote the minimal size of a transversal that can always be guaranteed for a family of compact convex sets in Rd which satisfy the (p, q)-property (p ≥ q ≥ d + 1). In a celebrated proof of the Hadwiger–Debrunner conjecture, Alon and Kleitman proved that HD _d (p, q) exists for all p ≥ q ≥ d + 1. Specifically, they prove that \(H{D_d}(p,d + 1)is\tilde O({p^{{d^2} + d}})\).We present several improved bounds: (i) For any \(q \geqslant d + 1,H{D_d}(p,d) = \tilde O({p^{d(\frac{{q - 1}}{{q - d}})}})\). (ii) For q ≥ log p, \(H{D_d}(p,q) = \tilde O(p + {(p/q)^d})\). (iii) For every ? > 0 there exists a p₀ = p₀(?) such that for every p ≥ p₀ and for every \(q \geqslant {p^{\frac{{d - 1}}{d} + \in }}\) we have p ? q + 1 ≤ HD _d (p, q) ≤ p ? q + 2. The latter is the first near tight estimate of HD _d (p, q) for an extended range of values of (p, q) since the 1957 Hadwiger–Debrunner theorem.We also prove a (p, 2)-theorem for families in R² with union complexity below a specific quadratic bound.     

Sharpened forms of the generalized Schwarz inequality on the boundary

In this paper, a boundary version of the Schwarz inequality is investigated. We obtain more general results at the boundary. If we know the second coefficient in the expansion of the function f(z) = 1 + c_pz^p + c_{p + 1}z^{p + 1}…, then we obtain new inequalities of the Schwarz inequality at boundary by taking into account c_{p + 1} and zeros of the function f(z) ? 1. The sharpness of these inequalities is also proved.     

On a Diophantine Inequality with Prime Numbers of a Special Type

We consider the Diophantine inequality |p ₁ ^c + p ₂ ^c + p ₃ ^c ? N| < (logN)^?E, where 1 < c < 15/14, N is a sufficiently large real number and E > 0 is an arbitrarily large constant. We prove that the above inequality has a solution in primes p₁, p₂, p₃ such that each of the numbers p₁ + 2, p₂ + 2 and p₃ + 2 has at most [369/(180 ? 168c)] prime factors, counted with multiplicity.
