Some estimates of Schrödinger type operators on the Heisenberg group

In this paper, we consider the Schrödinger type operator ${H = (-\Delta _{\mathbb {H}}^n)^2 +V ^{2}}In this paper, we consider the Schr?dinger type operator H = (-D_{\mathbb H}ⁿ)² +V ²{H = (-\Delta _{\mathbb {H}}^n)^2 +V ^{2}}, where the nonnegative potential V belongs to the reverse H?lder class B_q1 for q₁ 3 \frac Q 2,Q 3 6{B_{{q}_{1}}\, {\rm for}\, q_{1}\geq {\frac {Q}{ 2}},Q \geq 6}, and D_{\mathbb Hⁿ}{\Delta_{\mathbb {H}^n}} is the sublaplacian on the Heisenberg group \mathbb Hⁿ{\mathbb {H}^n}. An L ^p estimate and a weak type L ¹ estimate for the operator ?⁴_{\mathbb Hⁿ} H^-1{\nabla^4_{\mathbb {H}^n} H^{-1}} when V ? B_q1{V \in B_{{q}_{1}}} for 1 < p ￡ \fracq₁2{1 < p \leq \frac{q_{1}}{2}} are obtained.     

A topological version of the Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem with two fixed points

The main result of this paper gives a topological property satisfied by any homeomorphism of the annulus \mathbb A = \mathbb S¹ ×[-1, 1]{\mathbb {A} = \mathbb {S}^1 \times [-1, 1]} isotopic to the identity and with at most one fixed point. This generalizes the classical Poincaré-Birkhoff theorem because this property certainly does not hold for an area preserving homeomorphism h of \mathbb A{\mathbb {A}} with the usual boundary twist condition. We also have two corollaries of this result. The first one shows in particular that the boundary twist assumption may be weakened by demanding that the homeomorphism h has a lift H to the strip [(\mathbbA)\tilde] = \mathbbR ×[-1, 1]{\tilde{\mathbb{A}} = \mathbb{R} \times [-1, 1]} possessing both a forward orbit unbounded on the right and a forward orbit unbounded on the left. As a second corollary we get a new proof of a version of the Conley–Zehnder theorem in \mathbb A{\mathbb {A}} : if a homeomorphism of \mathbb A{\mathbb {A}} isotopic to the identity preserves the area and has mean rotation zero, then it possesses two fixed points.     

New Besov-type spaces and Triebel–Lizorkin-type spaces including Q spaces

Let ${s,\,\tau\in\mathbb{R}}Let s, t ? \mathbbR{s,\,\tau\in\mathbb{R}} and q ? (0,￥]{q\in(0,\infty]} . We introduce Besov-type spaces [(B)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ){{{{\dot B}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}}} for p ? (0, ￥]{p\in(0,\,\infty]} and Triebel–Lizorkin-type spaces [(F)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ) for p ? (0, ￥){{{{\dot F}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}}\,{\rm for}\, p\in(0,\,\infty)} , which unify and generalize the Besov spaces, Triebel–Lizorkin spaces and Q spaces. We then establish the j{\varphi} -transform characterization of these new spaces in the sense of Frazier and Jawerth. Using the j{\varphi} -transform characterization of [(B)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ) and [(F)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ){{{{\dot B}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}\, {\rm and}\, {{\dot F}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}}} , we obtain their embedding and lifting properties; moreover, for appropriate τ, we also establish the smooth atomic and molecular decomposition characterizations of [(B)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ) and [(F)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ){{{{\dot B}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}\,{\rm and}\, {{\dot F}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}}} . For s ? \mathbbR{s\in\mathbb{R}} , p ? (1, ￥), q ? [1, ￥){p\in(1,\,\infty), q\in[1,\,\infty)} and t ? [0, \frac1(max{p, q})￠]{\tau\in[0,\,\frac{1}{(\max\{p,\,q\})'}]} , via the Hausdorff capacity, we introduce certain Hardy–Hausdorff spaces B[(H)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ){{{{B\dot{H}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}}}} and prove that the dual space of B[(H)\dot]^s, t_p, q(\mathbbRⁿ){{{{B\dot{H}^{s,\,\tau}_{p,\,q}(\mathbb{R}^{n})}}}} is just [(B)\dot]^-s, t_p￠, q￠(\mathbbRⁿ){\dot{B}^{-s,\,\tau}_{p',\,q'}(\mathbb{R}^{n})} , where t′ denotes the conjugate index of t ? (1,￥){t\in (1,\infty)} .     

Hypersurfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space satisfying Lkψ?=?Aψ?+?b

We study hypersurfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space \mathbbLⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb{L}^{n+1}} whose position vector ψ satisfies the condition L _k ψ = Aψ + b, where L _k is the linearized operator of the (k + 1)th mean curvature of the hypersurface for a fixed k = 0, . . . , n − 1, A ? \mathbbR^(n+1)×(n+1){A\in\mathbb{R}^{(n+1)\times(n+1)}} is a constant matrix and b ? \mathbbLⁿ⁺¹{b\in\mathbb{L}^{n+1}} is a constant vector. For every k, we prove that the only hypersurfaces satisfying that condition are hypersurfaces with zero (k + 1)th mean curvature, open pieces of totally umbilical hypersurfaces \mathbbSⁿ₁(r){\mathbb{S}^n_1(r)} or \mathbbHⁿ(-r){\mathbb{H}^n(-r)}, and open pieces of generalized cylinders \mathbbS^m₁(r)×\mathbbR^n-m{\mathbb{S}^m_1(r)\times\mathbb{R}^{n-m}}, \mathbbH^m(-r)×\mathbbR^n-m{\mathbb{H}^m(-r)\times\mathbb{R}^{n-m}}, with k + 1 ≤ m ≤ n − 1, or \mathbbL^m×\mathbbS^n-m(r){\mathbb{L}^m\times\mathbb{S}^{n-m}(r)}, with k + 1 ≤ n − m ≤ n − 1. This completely extends to the Lorentz-Minkowski space a previous classification for hypersurfaces in \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb{R}^{n+1}} given by Alías and Gürbüz (Geom. Dedicata 121:113–127, 2006).     

Study of Some Fundamental Projective Quadrics Associated with a Standard Pseudo-Hermitian Space H p,q

This self-contained short note deals with the study of the properties of some real projective compact quadrics associated with a a standard pseudo-hermitian space H _p,q , namely [(Q(p, q))\tilde], [(Q_2p+1,1)\tilde], [(Q_1,2q+1)\tilde], [(H_p,q)\tilde].  [(Q(p, q))\tilde]{\widetilde{Q(p, q)}, \widetilde{Q_{2p+1,1}}, \widetilde{Q_{1,2q+1}}, \widetilde{H_{p,q}}. \, \widetilde{Q(p, q)}} is the (2n – 2) real projective quadric diffeomorphic to (S ^2p–1 × S ^2q–1)/Z ₂. inside the real projective space P(E ₁), where E ₁ is the real 2n-dimensional space subordinate to H _p,q . The properties of [(Q(p, q))\tilde]{\widetilde{Q(p, q)}} are investigated. [(H_p,q)\tilde]{\widetilde{H_p,q}} is the real (2n – 3)-dimensional compact manifold-(projective quadric)- associated with H _p,q , inside the complex projective space P(H _p,q ), diffeomorphic to (S ^2p–1 × S ^2q–1)/S ¹. The properties of [(H_p,q)\tilde]{\widetilde{H_{p,q}}} are studied. [(Q_2p+1,1)\tilde]{\widetilde{Q_{2p+1,1}}} is a 2p-dimensional standard real projective quadric, and [(Q_1,2q+1)\tilde]{\widetilde{Q_{1,2q+1}}} is another standard 2q-dimensional projective quadric. [(Q_2p+1,1)\tilde] è[(Q_1,2q+1)\tilde]{\widetilde{Q_{2p+1,1}} \cup \widetilde{Q_{1,2q+1}}}, union of two compact quadrics plays a part in the understanding of the "special pseudo-unitary conformal compactification" of H _p,q . It is shown how a distribution y → D _y , where y ? H\{0},H{y \in H\backslash\{0\},H} being the isotropic cone of H _p,q allows to [(H_p+1,q+1)\tilde]{\widetilde{H_{p+1,q+1}}} to be considered as a "special pseudo-unitary conformal compactified" of H _p,q × R. The following results precise the presentation given in [1,c].

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)}.     

Bi-Parametric Potentials, Relevant Function Spaces and Wavelet-Like Transforms

We introduce new potential type operators J^a_b = (E+(-D)^b/2)^-a/bJ^{\alpha}_{\beta} = (E+(-\Delta)^{\beta/2})^{-\alpha/\beta}, (α > 0, β > 0), and bi-parametric scale of function spaces H^a_{b, p}(\mathbbRⁿ)H^{\alpha}_{\beta , p}({\mathbb{R}}^n) associated with J^α_β. These potentials generalize the classical Bessel potentials (for β = 2), and Flett potentials (for β = 1). A characterization of the spaces H^a_{b, p}(\mathbbRⁿ)H^{\alpha}_{\beta, p}({\mathbb{R}}^n) is given with the aid of a special wavelet–like transform associated with a β-semigroup, which generalizes the well-known Gauss-Weierstrass semigroup (for β = 2) and the Poisson one (for β = 1).     

Uniform rates of approximation by short asymptotic expansions in the CLT for quadratic forms

Let X, X ₁, X ₂,… be i.i.d. \mathbbR^d {\mathbb{R}^d} -valued real random vectors. Assume that E X = 0 and that X has a nondegenerate distribution. Let G be a mean zero Gaussian random vector with the same covariance operator as that of X. We study the distributions of nondegenerate quadratic forms \mathbbQ[ S_N ] \mathbb{Q}\left[ {{S_N}} \right] of the normalized sums S _N  = N ^−1/2 (X ₁ + ⋯ + X _N ) and show that, without any additional conditions,

Entropy bounds and second cohomology

When X is a finite complex and p₁X\pi_{1}X acts on \mathbbR²{\mathbb{R}}^2 by translations we give criteria involving H²X for an equivariant map F : [(X)\tilde] ? \mathbbR²F : \tilde{X} \rightarrow {\mathbb{R}}^2 to be onto. Following work of Manning and Shub, this leads to entropy bounds related to Shub’s entropy conjecture.

Complete hypersurfaces with constant scalar curvature in spheres

To a given immersion i:Mⁿ? \mathbb Sⁿ⁺¹{i:M^n\to \mathbb S^{n+1}} with constant scalar curvature R, we associate the supremum of the squared norm of the second fundamental form sup |A|². We prove the existence of a constant C _n (R) depending on R and n so that R ≥ 1 and sup |A|² = C _n (R) imply that the hypersurface is a H(r)-torus \mathbb S¹(?{1-r²})×\mathbb S^n-1 (r){\mathbb S^1(\sqrt{1-r^2})\times\mathbb S^{n-1} (r)}. For R > (n − 2)/n we use rotation hypersurfaces to show that for each value C > C _n (R) there is a complete hypersurface in \mathbb Sⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb S^{n+1}} with constant scalar curvature R and sup |A|² = C, answering questions raised by Q. M. Cheng.     

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.     

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.

A New Recursion in the Theory of Macdonald Polynomials      A. M. Garsia  J.

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].      20.

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]}.

In particular, when p = 1, then ρ(t) ≡ 1 and (VMO1, L(\mathbb Rn))*=HL*1(\mathbb Rn){({\mathop{\rm VMO}_{1, L}({\mathbb R}^n)})^\ast=H_{L^\ast}^1({\mathbb R}^n)}, where HL*1(\mathbb Rn){H_{L^\ast}^1({\mathbb R}^n)} was the Hardy space introduced by Hofmann and Mayboroda.
