Density of the polynomials in Hardy and Bergman spaces of slit domains

It is shown that for any t, 0<t<∞, there is a Jordan arc Γ with endpoints 0 and 1 such that G\{1} í \mathbbD:={z:|z| < 1}\Gamma\setminus\{1\}\subseteq\mathbb{D}:=\{z:|z|<1\} and with the property that the analytic polynomials are dense in the Bergman space \mathbbA^t(\mathbbD\G)\mathbb{A}^{t}(\mathbb{D}\setminus\Gamma) . It is also shown that one can go further in the Hardy space setting and find such a Γ that is in fact the graph of a continuous real-valued function on [0,1], where the polynomials are dense in H^t(\mathbbD\G)H^{t}(\mathbb{D}\setminus\Gamma) ; improving upon a result in an earlier paper.     

Absolutely convergent fourier series. An improvement of the Beurling-Helson theorem

We consider the space A(\mathbbT)A(\mathbb{T}) of all continuous functions f on the circle \mathbbT\mathbb{T} such that the sequence of Fourier coefficients [^(f)] = { [^(f)]( k ), k ? \mathbbZ }\hat f = \left\{ {\hat f\left( k \right), k \in \mathbb{Z}} \right\} belongs to l ¹(ℤ). The norm on A(\mathbbT)A(\mathbb{T}) is defined by || f ||_A(\mathbbT) = || [^(f)] ||_{l¹ (\mathbbZ)}\left\| f \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = \left\| {\hat f} \right\|_{l^1 (\mathbb{Z})}. According to the well-known Beurling-Helson theorem, if f:\mathbbT ? \mathbbT\phi :\mathbb{T} \to \mathbb{T} is a continuous mapping such that || e^inf ||_A(\mathbbT) = O(1)\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = O(1), n ∈ ℤ then φ is linear. It was conjectured by Kahane that the same conclusion about φ is true under the assumption that || e^inf ||_A(\mathbbT) = o( log| n | )\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\log \left| n \right|} \right). We show that if $\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\left( {{{\log \log \left| n \right|} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\log \log \left| n \right|} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right)^{1/12} } \right)$\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\left( {{{\log \log \left| n \right|} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\log \log \left| n \right|} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right)^{1/12} } \right), then φ is linear.     

Composition Followed by Differentiation Between H ∞ and Zygmund Spaces

Let j{\varphi} be an analytic self-map of the unit disk \mathbbD{\mathbb{D}}, H(\mathbbD){H(\mathbb{D})} the space of analytic functions on \mathbbD{\mathbb{D}} and g ? H(\mathbbD){g \in H(\mathbb{D})}. The boundedness and compactness of the operator DC_j : H^￥ ? Z{DC_\varphi : H^\infty \rightarrow { \mathcal Z}} are investigated in this paper.     

Compact Operators that Commute with a Contraction

Let T be a C₀–contraction on a separable Hilbert space. We assume that I_H − T*T is compact. For a function f holomorphic in the unit disk \mathbbD{\mathbb{D}} and continuous on [`(\mathbbD)]\overline{{\mathbb{D}}}, we show that f(T) is compact if and only if f vanishes on s(T)?\mathbbT\sigma(T)\cap{\mathbb{T}}, where σ(T) is the spectrum of T and \mathbbT{\mathbb{T}} the unit circle. If f is just a bounded holomorphic function on \mathbbD{\mathbb{D}}, we prove that f(T) is compact if and only if lim_{n? ￥}||Tⁿf(T)|| = 0\lim\limits_{n\rightarrow \infty}\|T^{n}f(T)\| = 0.     

Fourier Series with the Continuous Primitive Integral

Fourier series are considered on the one-dimensional torus for the space of periodic distributions that are the distributional derivative of a continuous function. This space of distributions is denoted A_c(\mathbbT){\mathcal{A}}_{c}(\mathbb{T}) and is a Banach space under the Alexiewicz norm, ||f||_\mathbbT=sup_{|I| ￡ 2p}|ò_I f|\|f\|_{\mathbb{T}}=\sup_{|I|\leq2\pi}|\int_{I} f|, the supremum being taken over intervals of length not exceeding 2π. It contains the periodic functions integrable in the sense of Lebesgue and Henstock–Kurzweil. Many of the properties of L ¹ Fourier series continue to hold for this larger space, with the L ¹ norm replaced by the Alexiewicz norm. The Riemann–Lebesgue lemma takes the form [^(f)](n)=o(n)\hat{f}(n)=o(n) as |n|→∞. The convolution is defined for f ? A_c(\mathbbT)f\in{\mathcal{A}}_{c}(\mathbb{T}) and g a periodic function of bounded variation. The convolution commutes with translations and is commutative and associative. There is the estimate ||f*g||_￥ ￡ ||f||_\mathbbT ||g||_BV\|f\ast g\|_{\infty}\leq\|f\|_{\mathbb{T}} \|g\|_{\mathcal{BV}}. For g ? L¹(\mathbbT)g\in L^{1}(\mathbb{T}), ||f*g||_\mathbbT ￡ ||f||_{\mathbb T} ||g||₁\|f\ast g\|_{\mathbb{T}}\leq\|f\|_{\mathbb {T}} \|g\|_{1}. As well, [^(f*g)](n)=[^(f)](n) [^(g)](n)\widehat{f\ast g}(n)=\hat{f}(n) \hat{g}(n). There are versions of the Salem–Zygmund–Rudin–Cohen factorization theorem, Fejér’s lemma and the Parseval equality. The trigonometric polynomials are dense in A_c(\mathbbT){\mathcal{A}}_{c}(\mathbb{T}). The convolution of f with a sequence of summability kernels converges to f in the Alexiewicz norm. Let D _n be the Dirichlet kernel and let f ? L¹(\mathbbT)f\in L^{1}(\mathbb{T}). Then ||D_n*f-f||_\mathbbT?0\|D_{n}\ast f-f\|_{\mathbb{T}}\to0 as n→∞. Fourier coefficients of functions of bounded variation are characterized. The Appendix contains a type of Fubini theorem.     

On the sets of branch points of mappings more general than quasiregular

It is shown that if a point x ₀ ∊ ℝ ⁿ , n ≥ 3, is an essential isolated singularity of an open discrete Q-mapping f : D → [`(\mathbb R<sup>n</sup>)] \overline {\mathbb {R}^n} , B <sub>f</sub> is the set of branch points of f in D; and a point z <sub>0</sub> ∊ [`(\mathbb Rⁿ)] \overline {\mathbb {R}^n} is an asymptotic limit of f at the point x ₀; then, for any neighborhood U containing the point x ₀; the point z ₀ ∊ [`(f( B<sub>f</sub> ?U ))] \overline {f\left( {B_f \cap U} \right)} provided that the function Q has either a finite mean oscillation at the point x <sub>0</sub> or a logarithmic singularity whose order does not exceed n − 1: Moreover, for n ≥ 2; under the indicated conditions imposed on the function Q; every point of the set [`(\mathbb Rⁿ)] \overline {\mathbb {R}^n} \ f(D) is an asymptotic limit of f at the point x ₀. For n ≥ 3, the following relation is true: [`(\mathbbR<sup>n</sup> )] \f( D ) ì [`(f B_f )] \overline {\mathbb{R}^n } \backslash f\left( D \right) \subset \overline {f\,B_f } . In addition, if ￥ ? f( D ) \infty \notin f\left( D \right) , then the set f B _f is infinite and x₀ ? [`(B_f )] x_0 \in \overline {B_f } .     

Voronovskaja-Type Results in Compact Disks for Quaternion q-Bernstein Operators, q ≥ 1

Attaching to a compact disk [`(\mathbbD<sub>r</sub>)]{\overline{\mathbb{D}_{r}}} in the quaternion field \mathbbH{\mathbb{H}} and to some analytic function in Weierstrass sense on [`(\mathbbD_r)]{\overline{\mathbb{D}_{r}}} the so-called q-Bernstein operators with q ≥ 1, Voronovskaja-type results with quantitative upper estimates are proved. As applications, the exact orders of approximation in [`(\mathbbD_r)]{\overline{\mathbb{D}_{r}}} for these operators, namely \frac1n{\frac{1}{n}} if q = 1 and \frac1qⁿ{\frac{1}{q^{n}}} if q > 1, are obtained. The results extend those in the case of approximation of analytic functions of a complex variable in disks by q-Bernstein operators of complex variable in Gal (Mediterr J Math 5(3):253–272, 2008) and complete the upper estimates obtained for q-Bernstein operators of quaternionic variable in Gal (Approximation by Complex Bernstein and Convolution-Type Operators, 2009; Adv Appl Clifford Alg, doi:, 2011).     

On branch points of three-dimensional mappings with unbounded characteristic of quasiconformality

For open discrete mappings f:D\{ b } ? \mathbbR³ f:D\backslash \left\{ b \right\} \to {\mathbb{R}^3} of a domain D ì \mathbbR³ D \subset {\mathbb{R}^3} satisfying relatively general geometric conditions in D \ {b} and having an essential singularity at a point b ? \mathbbR³ b \in {\mathbb{R}^3} , we prove the following statement: Let a point y ₀ belong to [`(\mathbbR³)] \f( D\{ b } ) \overline {{\mathbb{R}^3}} \backslash f\left( {D\backslash \left\{ b \right\}} \right) and let the inner dilatation K _I (x, f) and outer dilatation K _O (x, f) of the mapping f at the point x satisfy certain conditions. Let B _f denote the set of branch points of the mapping f. Then, for an arbitrary neighborhood V of the point y ₀, the set V ∩ f(B _f ) cannot be contained in a set A such that g(A) = I, where I = { t ? \mathbbR:| t | < 1 } I = \left\{ {t \in \mathbb{R}:\left| t \right| < 1} \right\} and g:U ? \mathbbRⁿ g:U \to {\mathbb{R}^n} is a quasiconformal mapping of a domain U ì \mathbbRⁿ U \subset {\mathbb{R}^n} such that A ⊂ U.     

Exotic smooth structures on small 4-manifolds with odd signatures

Let M be (2n-1)\mathbbCP²#2n[`(\mathbbCP)]<sup>2</sup>(2n-1)\mathbb{CP}^{2}\#2n\overline{\mathbb{CP}}{}^{2} for any integer n≥1. We construct an irreducible symplectic 4-manifold homeomorphic to M and also an infinite family of pairwise non-diffeomorphic irreducible non-symplectic 4-manifolds homeomorphic to M. We also construct such exotic smooth structures when M is \mathbbCP<sup>2</sup>#4[`(\mathbbCP)]²\mathbb{CP}{}^{2}\#4\overline {\mathbb{CP}}{}^{2} or 3\mathbbCP²#k[`(\mathbbCP)]²3\mathbb{CP}{}^{2}\#k\overline{\mathbb{CP}}{}^{2} for k=6,8,10.     

Mass equidistribution of Hilbert modular eigenforms

Let \mathbbF\mathbb{F} be a totally real number field, and let f traverse a sequence of non-dihedral holomorphic eigencuspforms on \operatornameGL₂/\mathbbF\operatorname{GL}_{2}/\mathbb{F} of weight (k₁,?,k_{[\mathbbF:\mathbbQ]})(k_{1},\ldots,k_{[\mathbb{F}:\mathbb{Q}]}), trivial central character and full level. We show that the mass of f equidistributes on the Hilbert modular variety as max(k₁,?,k_{[\mathbbF:\mathbbQ]}) ? ￥\max(k_{1},\ldots,k_{[\mathbb{F}:\mathbb{Q}]}) \rightarrow \infty.     

Linear independence of time-frequency shifts under a generalized Schrödinger representation

Let r_\mathbbR \rho_{\mathbb{R}} be the classical Schrödinger representation of the Heisenberg group and let L \Lambda be a finite subset of \mathbbR ×\mathbbR \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R} . The question of when the set of functions {t ? e^{2 pi y t} f(t + x) = (r_\mathbbR(x, y, 1) f)(t) : (x, y) ? L} \{t \mapsto e^{2 \pi i y t} f(t + x) = (\rho_{\mathbb{R}}(x, y, 1) f)(t) : (x, y) \in \Lambda\} is linearly independent for all f ? L²(\mathbbR), f 1 0 f \in L^2(\mathbb{R}), f \neq 0 , arises from Gabor analysis. We investigate an analogous problem for locally compact abelian groups G. For a finite subset L \Lambda of G ×[^(G)] G \times \widehat{G} and r_G \rho_G the Schrödinger representation of the Heisenberg group associated with G, we give a necessary and in many situations also sufficient condition for the set {r_G (x, w, 1)f : (x, w) ? L} \{\rho_G (x, w, 1)f : (x, w) \in \Lambda\} to be linearly independent for all f ? L²(G), f 1 0 f \in L^2(G), f \neq 0 .     

Hyponormal Toeplitz Operators on the Weighted Bergman Space

Consider j = f +[`(g)]\varphi = f + \overline {g}, where f and g are polynomials, and let T_jT_{\varphi} be the Toeplitz operators with the symbol j\varphi. It is known that if T_jT_{\varphi} is hyponormal then |f￠(z)|² 3 |g￠(z)|²|f'(z)|^{2} \geq |g'(z)|^{2} on the unit circle in the complex plane. In this paper, we show that it is also a necessary and sufficient condition under certain assumptions. Furthermore, we present some necessary conditions for the hyponormality of T_jT_{\varphi} on the weighted Bergman space, which generalize the results of I. S. Hwang and J. Lee.     

On the openness and discreteness of mappings with unbounded characteristic of quasiconformality

The paper is devoted to the investigation of topological properties of space mappings. It is shown that orientation-preserving mappings f:D ?[`(\mathbbRⁿ)] f:D \to \overline {{\mathbb{R}^n}} in a domain D ì \mathbbRⁿ D \subset {\mathbb{R}^n} , n ≥ 2; which are more general than mappings with bounded distortion, are open and discrete if a function Q corresponding to the control of the distortion of families of curves under these mappings has slow growth in the domain f (D), e.g., if Q has finite mean oscillation at an arbitrary point y ₀ ∈ f (D).     

Triple Hilbert Transforms Along Polynomial Surfaces

Given W ì \mathbbZ₊³\Omega \subset {\mathbb{Z}}_{+}^{3}, we discuss a necessary and sufficient condition that the triple Hilbert transform associated with any polynomial of the form ($t_1, t_2, t_3,\sum_{m \in \Omega} a_{m} t^m$t_1, t_2, t_3,\sum_{m \in \Omega} a_{m} t^m) is bounded in L^p(\mathbbR⁴)L^p({\mathbb{R}}^4).     

The Problem of the Pointwise Fourier Inversion for Piecewise Smooth Functions of Several Variables

We study the pointwise convergence problem for the inverse Fourier transform of piecewise smooth functions, i.e., whether S_rD f (\bx) ? f (\bx)S_{\rho D} f (\bx) \to f (\bx) as r? ￥\rho \to \infty . r? ￥\rho \to \infty . Here for \bx,\bxi ? \Rn\bx,\bxi \in \Rn S_rDf(\bmx)=\dsf1(2p)^n/2\intli_rD [^(f)](\bxi) e^{\dst iá\bmx,\bxi?} d\bxi . S_{\rho D}f(\bm{x})=\dsf1{(2\pi)^{n/2}}\intli_{\rho D} \widehat{f}(\bxi) e^{\dst i\langle\bm{x},\bxi\rangle} d\bxi~. is the partial sum operator using a convex and open set DD containing the origin, and rD={ r\bxi:\bxi ? D }\rho D=\left\{ \rho \bxi:\bxi\in D \right\}.     

Quantization of Lie bialgebras and shuffle algebras of Lie algebras

To any field \Bbb K \Bbb K of characteristic zero, we associate a set (\mathbbK) (\mathbb{K}) and a group G₀(\Bbb K) {\cal G}_0(\Bbb K) . Elements of (\mathbbK) (\mathbb{K}) are equivalence classes of families of Lie polynomials subject to associativity relations. Elements of G₀(\Bbb K) {\cal G}_0(\Bbb K) are universal automorphisms of the adjoint representations of Lie bialgebras over \Bbb K \Bbb K . We construct a bijection between (\mathbbK)×G₀(\Bbb K) (\mathbb{K})\times{\cal G}_0(\Bbb K) and the set of quantization functors of Lie bialgebras over \Bbb K \Bbb K . This construction involves the following steps.? 1) To each element v \varpi of (\mathbbK) (\mathbb{K}) , we associate a functor \frak a?\operatornameSh^v(\frak a) \frak a\mapsto\operatorname{Sh}^\varpi(\frak a) from the category of Lie algebras to that of Hopf algebras; \operatornameSh^v(\frak a) \operatorname{Sh}^\varpi(\frak a) contains U\frak a U\frak a .? 2) When \frak a \frak a and \frak b \frak b are Lie algebras, and r_{\frak a\frak b} ? \frak a?\frak b r_{\frak a\frak b} \in\frak a\otimes\frak b , we construct an element ?^v (r_{\frak a\frak b}) {\cal R}^{\varpi} (r_{\frak a\frak b}) of \operatornameSh^v(\frak a)?\operatornameSh^v(\frak b) \operatorname{Sh}^\varpi(\frak a)\otimes\operatorname{Sh}^\varpi(\frak b) satisfying quasitriangularity identities; in particular, ?^v(r_{\frak a\frak b}) {\cal R}^\varpi(r_{\frak a\frak b}) defines a Hopf algebra morphism from \operatornameSh^v(\frak a)^* \operatorname{Sh}^\varpi(\frak a)^* to \operatornameSh^v(\frak b) \operatorname{Sh}^\varpi(\frak b) .? 3) When \frak a = \frak b \frak a = \frak b and r_\frak a ? \frak a?\frak a r_\frak a\in\frak a\otimes\frak a is a solution of CYBE, we construct a series r^v(r_\frak a) \rho^\varpi(r_\frak a) such that ?^v(r^v(r_\frak a)) {\cal R}^\varpi(\rho^\varpi(r_\frak a)) is a solution of QYBE. The expression of r^v(r_\frak a) \rho^\varpi(r_\frak a) in terms of r_\frak a r_\frak a involves Lie polynomials, and we show that this expression is unique at a universal level. This step relies on vanishing statements for cohomologies arising from universal algebras for the solutions of CYBE.? 4) We define the quantization of a Lie bialgebra \frak g \frak g as the image of the morphism defined by ?^v(r^v(r)) {\cal R}^\varpi(\rho^\varpi(r)) , where r ? \mathfrakg ?\mathfrakg^* r \in \mathfrak{g} \otimes \mathfrak{g}^* .<\P>     

Probabilistic Representation of Weak Solutions of Partial Differential Equations with Polynomial Growth Coefficients

In this paper we develop a new weak convergence and compact embedding method to study the existence and uniqueness of the L_r^2p(\mathbbR^d;\mathbbR¹)×L_r²(\mathbbR^d;\mathbbR^d)L_{\rho}^{2p}({\mathbb{R}^{d}};{\mathbb{R}^{1}})\times L_{\rho}^{2}({\mathbb{R}^{d}};{\mathbb{R}^{d}}) valued solution of backward stochastic differential equations with p-growth coefficients. Then we establish the probabilistic representation of the weak solution of PDEs with p-growth coefficients via corresponding BSDEs.     

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).
