Interlacing of zeros of Gegenbauer polynomials of non-consecutive degree from different sequences

A theorem due to Stieltjes’ states that if \({\{p_n\}_{n=0}^\infty}\) is any orthogonal sequence then, between any two consecutive zeros of p _k , there is at least one zero of p _n whenever k < n, a property called Stieltjes interlacing. We show that Stieltjes interlacing extends to the zeros of Gegenbauer polynomials \({C_{n+1}^{\lambda}}\) and \({C_{n-1}^{\lambda+t}}\), \({\lambda > -\frac 12}\), if 0 < t ≤ k + 1, and also to the zeros of \({C_{n+1}^{\lambda}}\) and \({C_{n-2}^{\lambda +k}}\) if \({k\in\{1,2,3\}}\). More generally, we prove that Stieltjes interlacing holds between the zeros of the kth derivative of \({C_{n}^{\lambda}}\) and the zeros of \({C_{n+1}^{\lambda}}\), \({k\in\{1,2,\dots,n-1\}}\) and we derive associated polynomials that play an analogous role to the de Boor–Saff polynomials in completing the interlacing process of the zeros.     

Boundedness of Sublinear Operators and Commutators on Generalized Morrey Spaces

In this paper the authors study the boundedness for a large class of sublinear operators \({T_{\alpha}, \alpha \in [0,n)}\) generated by Calderón–Zygmund operators (α = 0) and generated by Riesz potential operator (α > 0) on generalized Morrey spaces \({M_{p,\varphi}}\) . As an application of the above result, the boundeness of the commutator of sublinear operators \({T_{b,\alpha}, \alpha \in [0,n)}\) on generalized Morrey spaces is also obtained. In the case \({b \in BMO}\) and T _b,α is a sublinear operator, we find the sufficient conditions on the pair \({(\varphi_1,\varphi_2)}\) which ensures the boundedness of the operators \({T_{b,\alpha}, \alpha \in [0,n)}\) from one generalized Morrey space \({M_{p,\varphi_1}}\) to another \({M_{q,\varphi_2}}\) with 1/p ? 1/q = α/n. In all the cases the conditions for the boundedness are given in terms of Zygmund-type integral inequalities on \({(\varphi_1,\varphi_2)}\) , which do not assume any assumption on monotonicity of \({\varphi_1, \, \varphi_2}\) in r. Conditions of these theorems are satisfied by many important operators in analysis, in particular, Littlewood–Paley operator, Marcinkiewicz operator and Bochner–Riesz operator.     

Some estimates for the Schrödinger type operators with nonnegative potentials

In this paper we consider the Schrödinger operator ?Δ + V on \({\mathbb R^d}\), where the nonnegative potential V belongs to the reverse Hölder class \({B_{q_{_1}}}\) for some \({q_{_1}\geq \frac{d}{2}}\) with d ≥ 3. Let \({H^1_L(\mathbb R^d)}\) denote the Hardy space related to the Schrödinger operator L = ?Δ + V and \({BMO_L(\mathbb R^d)}\) be the dual space of \({H^1_L(\mathbb R^d)}\). We show that the Schrödinger type operator \({\nabla(-\Delta +V)^{-\beta}}\) is bounded from \({H^1_L(\mathbb R^d)}\) into \({L^p(\mathbb R^d)}\) for \({p=\frac{d}{d-(2\beta-1)}}\) with \({ \frac{1}{2}<\beta<\frac{3}{2} }\) and that it is also bounded from \({L^p(\mathbb R^d)}\) into \({BMO_L(\mathbb R^d)}\) for \({p=\frac{d}{2\beta-1}}\) with \({ \frac{1}{2}<\beta< 2}\).     

Lifting Fixed Points of Completely Positive Semigroups

Let \({\{\phi_s\}_{s\in S}}\) be a commutative semigroup of completely positive, contractive, and weak*-continuous linear maps acting on a von Neumann algebra N. Assume there exists a semigroup \({\{\alpha_s\}_{s\in S}}\) of weak*-continuous *-endomorphisms of some larger von Neumann algebra \({M\supset N}\) and a projection \({p\in M}\) with N = pMp such that α _s (1 ? p) ≤ 1 ? p for every \({s\in S}\) and \({\phi_s(y)=p\alpha_s(y)p}\) for all \({y\in N}\). If \({\inf_{s \in S}\alpha_s(1-p)=0}\) then we show that the map \({E:M\to N}\) defined by E(x) = pxp for \({x\in M}\) induces a complete isometry between the fixed point spaces of \({\{\alpha_s\}_{s\in S}}\) and \({\{\phi_s\}_{s\in S}}\).     

A Unified Framework for Linear Dimensionality Reduction in L1

For a family of interpolation norms \({\| \cdot \|_{1,2,s}}\) on \({\mathbb{R}^{n}}\), we provide a distribution over random matrices \({\Phi_s \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}}\) parametrized by sparsity level s such that for a fixed set X of K points in \({\mathbb{R}^{n}}\), if \({m \geq C s \log(K)}\) then with high probability, \({\frac{1}{2}\| \varvec{x} \|_{1,2,s} \leq \| \Phi_s (\varvec{x}) \|_1 \leq 2 \| \varvec{x} \|_{1,2,s}}\) for all \({\varvec{x} \in X}\). Several existing results in the literature roughly reduce to special cases of this result at different values of s: For s = n, \({\| \varvec{x} \|_{1,2,n}\equiv \| \varvec{x} \|_{1}}\) and we recover that dimension reducing linear maps can preserve the ?₁-norm up to a distortion proportional to the dimension reduction factor, which is known to be the best possible such result. For s = 1, \({\| \varvec{x} \|_{1,2,1}\equiv \| \varvec{x} \|_{2}}\), and we recover an ?₂/?₁ variant of the Johnson–Lindenstrauss Lemma for Gaussian random matrices. Finally, if \({\varvec{x}}\) is s- sparse, then \({\| \varvec{x} \|_{1,2,s} = \| \varvec{x} \|_1}\) and we recover that s-sparse vectors in \({\ell_1^n}\) embed into \({\ell_1^{\mathcal{O}(s \log(n))}}\) via sparse random matrix constructions.     

Isoperimetric inequality for the polydisk

Let \({n\in\mathbb{N}}\). For \({k\in\{1,\dots,n\}}\) let \({\Omega_k\subset \mathbb{C}}\) be a simply connected domain with a rectifiable boundary. Let \({\Omega^n=\prod_{k=1}^n\Omega_k\subset \mathbb{C}^n}\) be a generalized polydisk with distinguished boundary \({\partial\Omega^n=\prod_{k=1}^n\partial\Omega_k}\). Let E ^r (Ω ⁿ ) be the holomorphic Smirnov class on Ω ⁿ with index r. We show that the generalized isoperimetric inequality

$ \int\limits_{\Omega^n} |f_1|^p|f_2|^qdV\le \frac{1}{(4\pi)^n}\int\limits_{\partial \Omega^n}|f_1|^pdS \int\limits_{\partial \Omega^n} |f_2|^qdS, $

holds for arbitrary \({f_1\in E^p(\Omega^n)}\) and \({f_2\in E^q(\Omega^n)}\), where 0 < p, q < ∞. We also determine necessary and sufficient conditions for equality.

     

On complete sequences

A sequence A of nonnegative integers is called complete if all sufficiently large integers can be represented as the sum of distinct terms taken form A. For a sequence \({S=\{s_{1}, s_{2}, \dots\}}\) of positive integers and a positive real number α, let S _α denote the sequence \({\{\lfloor\alpha s_{1}\rfloor, \lfloor\alpha s_{2}\rfloor, \dots\}}\), where \({\lfloor x \rfloor}\) denotes the greatest integer not greater than x. Let \({{U_S = \{\alpha \mid S_\alpha} \, is complete\}}\). Hegyvári [6] proved that if \({\lim_{n\to\infty} (s_{n+1}-s_{n})=+ \infty}\), \({s_{n+1} < \gamma s_{n}}\) for all integers \({n \geqq n_{0}}\), where \({1 < \gamma < 2}\), and \({U_{S}\ne\emptyset}\), then \({\mu(U_{S}) > 0}\), where \({\mu(U_{S})}\) is the Lebesgue measure of U _S . Yong-Gao Chen and the first author [4] proved that, if \({s_{n+1} < \gamma s_{n}}\) for all integers \({n \geqq n_{0}}\), where \({1 < \gamma \leqq 7/4=1.75}\), then \({\mu(U_{S}) > 0}\). In this paper, we prove that the conclusion holds for \({1 < \gamma \leqq \sqrt[4]{13}=1.898\dots\;}\).     

Toeplitz Operators from One Fock Space to Another

In this paper, we study Toeplitz operators T _μ from one Fock space \({F^{p}_{\alpha}}\) to another \({F^{q}_{\alpha}}\) for 1 < p, q < ∞ with positive Borel measures μ as symbols. We characterize the boundedness (and compactness) of \({T_\mu: F^{p}_{\alpha} \to F^{q}_{\alpha}}\) in terms of the averaging function \({\widehat{\mu}_r}\) and the t-Berezin transform \({\widetilde{\mu}_t}\) respectively. Quite differently from the Bergman space case, we show that T _μ is bounded (or compact) from \({F^{p}_{\alpha}}\) to \({F^{q}_{\alpha}}\) for some p ≤ q if and only if T _μ is bounded (or compact) from \({F^{p}_{\alpha}}\) to \({F^{q}_{\alpha}}\) for all p ≤ q. In order to prove our main results on T _μ , we introduce and characterize (vanishing) (p, q)-Fock Carleson measures on C ⁿ .     

Strichartz estimates via the Schrödinger maximal operator

We consider the Schrödinger operator \({e^{it\Delta}}\) acting on initial data f in \({\dot{H}^s}\). We show that an affirmative answer to a question of Carleson, concerning the sharp range of s for which \({\lim_{t\to 0}e^{it\Delta}f(x)=f(x)}\) a.e. \({x\in \mathbb {R}^n}\), would imply an affirmative answer to a question of Planchon, concerning the sharp range of q and r for which \({e^{it\Delta}}\) is bounded in \({L_x^q(\mathbb {R}^n,L^r_t(\mathbb {R}))}\). When n  =  2, we unconditionally improve the range for which the mixed norm estimates hold.     

Generalized commutativity of lattice-ordered groups II

Commutative \({\ell}\)-groups G (in which for all \({x, y \in G, xy = yx}\)) were studied long ago. This was then generalized to the study of \({\ell}\)-groups G in which for a given integer n and for all \({x, y \in G, x^{n}y^{n} = y^{n}x^{n}}\). It was then discovered that if for all \({x, y \in G}\), both \({x^{n}y^{n} = y^{n}x^{n}}\) and \({x^{m}y^{m} = y^{m}x^{m}}\) for two different integers m, n, then also \({x^{d}y^{d} = y^{d}x^{d}}\), where d is the greatest common divisor of m, n.
