Localized Polynomial Frames on the Interval with Jacobi Weights

As is well known the kernel of the orthogonal projector onto the polynomials of degree n in L²(w_α,β, [−1, 1]), w_α,β(t) = (1 − t)^α(1 + t)^β, can be written in terms of Jacobi polynomials. It is shown that if the coefficients in this kernel are smoothed out by sampling a compactly supported C^∞ function then the resulting function has nearly exponential (faster than any polynomial) rate of decay away from the main diagonal. This result is used for the construction of tight polynomial frames for L²(w_α,β) with elements having almost exponential localization.

On Lp-convergence of Grunwald interpolation

In this paper, the L_p-convergence of Grünwald interpolation G_n(f,x) based on the zeros of Jacobi polynomials J _n ^(α,β) (x)(−1<α,β<1) is considered. L_p-convergence (0<p<2) of Grünwald interpolation G_n(f,x) is proved for p·Max(α,β)<1. Moreover, L_p-convergence (p>0) of G_n(f,x) is obtained for −1<α,β≤0. Therefore, the results of [1] and [3–5] are improved.

Bounds for Relative Projection Constants in L 1 (-1,1)

For n -dimensional subspaces E _n , F _n of L ¹ (-1,1) with E _n spanned by Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind and F _n the set of Müntz polynomials with , , it is shown that the relative projection constants satisfy (E _n , L ¹ (-1,1)) C log n and (F _n , L ¹ (-1,1)) = O(1) , . The spaces L ¹ _w(α,β) , where w _α,β is the weight function of the Jacobi polynomials and , are also studied. The Jacobi partial sum projections, which are used in connection with E _n , are not minimal. September 26, 1996.     

The maximal (C,α,β) operator on Hp(T×T)

The two-dimensional classical Hardy space H_p(T×T) on the bidisc are introduced, and it is shown that the maximal operator of the (C,α,β) means of a distribution is bounded from the space H_p(T×T) to L_p(T²) (1/(α+1), 1/(β+1)<p≤∞), and is of weak type (H ₁ ^# (T×T), L₁(T²)), where the Hardy space H ₁ ^# (T×T) is defined by the hybrid maximal function. As a consequence we obtain that the (C, α, β) means of a function f∈H ₁ ^# (T×T)⊃LlogL(T ²) convergs a. e. to the function in question. Moreover, we prove that the (C, α, β) means are uniformly bounded on the spaces H_p(T×T) whenever 1/(α+1), 1(β+1)<p<∞. Thus, in case f∈H_p(T×T), the (C, α, β) means convergs to f in H_p(T×T) norm whenever (1/(α+1), 1/(β+1)<p<∞). The same results are proved for the conjugate (C, α, β) means, too. This research was made while the author was visiting the Humboldt University in Berlin supported by the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.

Analogues of the “zero-two” law for positive linear contractions inL p andC(X)

LetT be a positive linear contraction inL ^p (1≦p<∞), then we show that lim ‖T ^pf −T ⁿ⁺¹ f‖ _p ≦(1 − ε)2^1/p (f∈L _p ⁺ , ε>0 independent off) implies already lim_n n→∞ ‖T ⁿf −T ⁿ⁺¹ n+1f ‖_p p=0. Several other related results as well as uniform variants of these are also given. Finally some similar results inLsu/t8 andC(X) are shown.     

On a Banach space approximable by Jacobi polynomials

Let X represent either the space C[-1,1] L _p ^(α,β) (w), 1 ≦ p < ∞ on [-1, 1]. Then Xare Banach spaces under the sup or the p norms, respectively. We prove that there exists a normalized Banach subspace X ¹ _αβ of Xsuch that every f ∈ X ¹ _αβ can be represented by a linear combination of Jacobi polynomials to any degree of accuracy. Our method to prove such an approximation problem is Fourier–Jacobi analysis based on the convergence of Fourier–Jacobi expansions.

Global existence and time decay of small solutions to the landau-ginzburg type equations

The maximal (C,α,β) operator on Hp(T×T)

The two-dimensional classical Hardy space H_p(T×T) on the bidisc are introduced, and it is shown that the maximal operator of the (C,α,β) means of a distribution is bounded from the space H_p(T×T) to L_p(T²) (1/(α+1), 1/(β+1)<p≤∞), and is of weak type (H ₁ ^# (T×T), L₁(T²)), where the Hardy space H ₁ ^# (T×T) is defined by the hybrid maximal function. As a consequence we obtain that the (C, α, β) means of a function f∈H ₁ ^# (T×T)⊃LlogL(T ²) convergs a. e. to the function in question. Moreover, we prove that the (C, α, β) means are uniformly bounded on the spaces H_p(T×T) whenever 1/(α+1), 1(β+1)<p<∞. Thus, in case f∈H_p(T×T), the (C, α, β) means convergs to f in H_p(T×T) norm whenever (1/(α+1), 1/(β+1)<p<∞). The same results are proved for the conjugate (C, α, β) means, too.

Let f∈C _[−1,1] ^″ (r≥1) and R_n(f,α,β,x) be the generalized Pál interpolation polynomials satisfying the conditions R_n(f,α,β,x_k)=f(x_k),R_n ^′(f,α,β,x_k)=f′(x_k)(k=1,2,…,n), where {x_k} are the roots of n-th Jacobi polynomial P_n(α,β,x),α,β>−1 and {x _k ^″ } are the roots of (1−x²)P_n″(α,β,x).

We establish the relation between the increase of the quantityM(σ,F) = ∣a ₀∣ + ∑ _n=1 ^∞ ∣a _n ∣ exp (σλ _n ) and the behavior of sequences (|a _n |) and (λ _n ), where (λ _n ) is a sequence of nonnegative numbers increasing to + ∞, andF(s) =a ₀ + ∑ _n=1 ^∞ a _n e ^sλn ,s=σ+it, is the Dirichlet entire series.

Norms of powers of absolutely convergent fourier series

Letf(t) = ∑a _k e ^ikt be infinitely differentiable on R, |f(t)|<1. It is known that under these assumptions ‖ⁿ‖ converges to a finite limitl asn → ∞ (l ² = sec(arga),a = (f′(0))² -f″(0)). We obtain here more precise results: (i) an asymptotic series (in powers ofn ^-1/2) for the Fourier coefficientsa _nk off ⁿ , which holds uniformly ink asn → ∞; (ii) an asymptotic series (this time only powers ofn ^-1 are present!) for ‖f ⁿ ‖; (iii) the fact that ifi ^j f ^(j)(0) is real forj = 1,2,..., 2h + 2 then ‖f ⁿ ‖ = l + o(n ^-h ),n → ∞. More generally, we obtain analogous finite asymptotic expansions whenf is assumed to be differentiable only finitely many times.     

On perturbations of differentiable semigroups

LetX be a Banach space and letA be the infinitesimal generator of a differentiable semigroup {T(t) |t ≥ 0}, i.e. aC ₀-semigroup such thatt ↦T(t)x is differentiable on (0, ∞) for everyx εX. LetB be a bounded linear operator onX and let {S(t) |t ≥ 0} be the semigroup generated byA +B. Renardy recently gave an example which shows that {S(t) |t ≥ 0} need not be differentiable. In this paper we give a condition on the growth of ‖T′(t)‖ ast ↓ 0 which is sufficient to ensure that {S(t) |t ≥ 0} is differentiable. Moreover, we use Renardy’s example to study the optimality of our growth condition. Our results can be summarized roughly as follows:

Gumbel statistics for the longest interval of identical spins in a one-dimensional Gibbs measure

We consider one-dimensional Gibbs measures on spin configurations σ ∈ {–1,+1}^ℤ. For N ∈ ℕ let l _N denote the length of the longest interval of consecutive spins of the same kind in the interval [0,N]. We show that the distribution of a suitable continuous modification l _c (N) of l _N converges to the Gumbel distribution, i.e., for some α, β ∈ (0, ∞) and γ ∈ ℝ, lim _{N →∞} ℙ(l _c (N) ≤ α log N + βx + γ) = e ^{–e –x} .

The weighted Herz-type Hardy spaces hK q α,p (ω1,ω2)

Let 1<q<∞, n(1−1/q)≤α<∞, 0<p<∞ and ω₁,ω₂ ɛA ₁(R ⁿ ) (the Muckenhoupt class). In this paper, the author introduce the weighted Herz-type Hardy spaces hk _q ^α,p (gw₁,ω₂) and present their atomic decomposition. Using the atomic decomposition, the author find out their dual spaces, establish the boundedness on these spaces of the pseudo-differential operators of order zero and show thatD(R ⁿ ), the class of C^∞(Rⁿ)-functions with compactly support, is dense inhK _q ^α,p (ω₁,ω₂) and there is a subsequence, which converges in distrbutional sense to some distribution ofhK _q ^α,p (ω₁,ω₂), of any bounded sequence inhK _q ^α,p (ω₁,ω₂). In addition, the author also set up the boundedness of some non-linear quantities in compensated compactness. Supported by the NECF and the NECF and the NNSF of China.     

Estimates of the periods of periodic points for nonexpansive operators

Suppose thatE is a finite-dimensional Banach space with a polyhedral norm ‖·‖, i.e., a norm such that the unit ball inE is a polyhedron. ℝ ⁿ with the sup norm or ℝ ⁿ with thel ₁-norm are important examples. IfD is a bounded set inE andT:D→D is a map such that ‖T(y)−T(z)‖≤ ‖y−z‖ for ally andz inE, thenT is called nonexpansive with respect to ‖·‖, and it is known that for eachx ∈D there is an integerp=p(x) such that lim _j→∞ T ^jp (x) exists. Furthermore, there exists an integerN, depending only on the dimension ofE and the polyhedral norm onE, such thatp(x)≤N: see [1,12,18,19] and the references to the literature there. In [15], Scheutzow has raised a question about the optimal choice ofN whenE=ℝ ⁿ ,D=K ⁿ , the set of nonnegative vectors in ℝ ⁿ , and the norm is thel ₁-norm. We provide here a reasonably sharp answer to Scheutzow’s question, and in fact we provide a systematic way to generate examples and use this approach to prove that our estimates are optimal forn≤24. See Theorem 2.1, Table 2.1 and the examples in Section 3. As we show in Corollary 2.3, these results also provide information about the caseD=ℝ ⁿ , i.e.,T:ℝ ⁿ →ℝ ⁿ isl ₁-nonexpansive. In addition, it is conjectured in [12] thatN=2 ⁿ whenE=ℝ ⁿ and the norm is the sup norm, and such a result is optimal, if true. Our theorems here show that a sharper result is true for an important subclass of nonexpansive mapsT:(ℝ ⁿ ,‖ · ‖_∞)→(ℝ ⁿ ,‖ · ‖_∞). Partially supported by NSF DMS89-03018.
