Maximal regularity for evolution equations in weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-spaces

Let X be a Banach space and let A be a closed linear operator on X. It is shown that the abstract Cauchy problem enjoys maximal regularity in weighted L _p -spaces with weights , where , if and only if it has the property of maximal L _p -regularity. Moreover, it is also shown that the derivation operator admits an -calculus in weighted L _p -spaces. Received: 26 February 2003     

Multiple equilibria,periodic solutions and a priori bounds for solutions in superlinear parabolic problems

Consider the Dirichlet problem for the parabolic equation in , where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain in and f has superlinear subcritical growth in u. If f is independent of t and satisfies some additional conditions then using a dynamical method we find multiple (three, six or infinitely many) nontrivial stationary solutions. If f has the form where m is periodic, positive and m,g satisfy some technical conditions then we prove the existence of a positive periodic solution and we provide a locally uniform bound for all global solutions.

Another way to say caloric

This paper offers characterizations of subsolutions of the heat equation (the subcaloric functions) and the infinity heat equation (the infinity-subcaloric functions) by means of comparison properties with explicit families of solutions of the corresponding equations. The primary ingredients of functions in these families are translates of solutions which depend radially on the space variables. Results of independent interest include the presentation and study of the class of infinity-caloric functions employed in the characterization.     

A characterization of the periods of periodic points of 1-norm nonexpansive maps

In this paper the set of minimal periods of periodic points of 1-norm nonexpansive maps is studied. This set is denoted by R(n). The main goal is to present a characterization of R(n) by arithmetical and combinatorial constraints. More precisely, it is shown that , where denotes the set of periods of restricted admissible arrays on 2n symbols. The important point of this equality is that is determined by arithmetical and combinatorial constraints only, and that it can be computed in finite time. By using this equality the set R(n) is computed for . Furthermore it is shown that the largest element of R(n) satisfies:

Algebras Generated by the Bergman and Anti-Bergman Projections and by Multiplications by Piecewise Continuous Functions

The C*-algebra generated by the Bergman and anti-Bergman projections and by the operators of multiplication by piecewise continuous functions on the Lebesgue space L²(Π) over the upper half-plane is studied. Making use of a local principle, limit operators techniques, and the Plamenevsky results on two-dimensional singular integral operators with coefficients admitting homogeneous discontinuities we reduce the study to simpler C*-algebras associated with points and pairs We construct a symbol calculus for unital C*-algebras generated by n orthogonal projections sum of which equals the unit and by m one-dimensional orthogonal projections. Such algebras are models of local algebras at points z ∈∂Π being the discontinuity points of coefficients. A symbol calculus for the C*- algebra and a Fredholm criterion for the operators are obtained. Finally, a C*-algebra isomorphism between the quotient algebra where is the ideal of compact operators, and its analogue for the unit disk is constructed.     

Uniqueness of entropy solutions for nonlinear degenerate parabolic problems

We consider the general degenerate parabolic equation: We prove existence of Kruzkhov entropy solutions of the associated Cauchy problem for bounded data where the flux function F is supposed to be continuous. Uniqueness is established under some additional assumptions on the modulus of continuity of F and b.
