Asymptotic Expansions of the Heat Kernel of the Laplacian for General Annular Bounded Domains with Robin Boundary Conditions：Further Results

The asymptotic expansions of the trace of the heat kernel θ(t)=∑^∞v=1^exp(-tλv) for small positive t,where {λv} are the eigenvalues of the negative Laplacian -△n=-∑^ni=1(D/Dx^1)^2 in R^2(n=2 or 3),are studied for a general annular bounded domain Ω with a smooth inner boundary DΩ1 and a smooth outer boundary DΩ2,where a finite number of piecewise smooth Robin boundary conditions(D/Dnj γh)Ф=0 on the components Гj(j= 1,...,m) of (DΩ1 and on the components Гj (j=k 1,…,m) of of DΩ2 are considered such that DΩl=U^kj=lГj and DΩ2= U^m=k 1Гj and where the coefficients γj(j=1,...,m) are piecewise smooth positive functions. Some applications of θ(t) for an ideal gas enclosed in the general annular bounded domain Ω are given. Further results are also obtained.

The 3D Inverse Problem of the Wave Equation for a General Multi-connected Vibrating Membrane with a Finite Number of Piecewise Smooth Boundary Conditions

The trace of the wave kernel μ（t） =∑ω=1^∞ exp（-itEω^1/2）, where {Eω}ω^∞=1 are the eigenvalues of the negative Laplacian -△↓2 = -∑k^3=1 （δ/δxk）^2 in the （x^1, x^2, x^3）-space, is studied for a variety of bounded domains, where -∞ 〈 t 〈 ∞ and i= √-1. The dependence of μ （t） on the connectivity of bounded domains and the Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin boundary conditions are analyzed. Particular attention is given for a multi-connected vibrating membrane Ω in Ra surrounded by simply connected bounded domains Ω j with smooth bounding surfaces S j （j = 1,……, n）, where a finite number of piecewise smooth Dirichlet, Neumann and Robin boundary conditions on the piecewise smooth components Si^＊ （i = 1 ＋ kj-1,……, kj） of the bounding surfaces S j are considered, such that S j = Ui-1＋kj-1^kj Si^＊, where k0=0. The basic problem is to extract information on the geometry Ω by using the wave equation approach from a complete knowledge of its eigenvalues. Some geometrical quantities of Ω （e.g. the volume, the surface area, the mean curvuture and the Gaussian curvature） are determined from the asymptotic expansion ofexpansion of μ（t） for small │t│.     

A Representation of the Lorentz Spin Group and Its Application

For an integer m ≥ 4, we define a set of 2[m/2] × 2[m/2] matrices γj （m）, （j = 0, 1,..., m - 1） which satisfy γj （m）γk （m） ＋γk （m）γj （m） = 2ηjk （m）I[m/2], where （ηjk （m）） 0≤j,k≤m-1 is a diagonal matrix, the first diagonal element of which is 1 and the others are -1, I[m/2] is a 2[m/1] × 2[m/2] identity matrix with [m/2] being the integer part of m/2. For m = 4 and 5, the representation （m） of the Lorentz Spin group is known.

The asymptotic expansion for small |t| of the trace of the wave kernel ∧↑μ(t) =∑v=1^∞exp(-it μv^1/2), where i= √-1 and {μv}v=1^∞ are the eigenvalues of the negative Laplacian -△=-∑β=1^2(δ/δx^β)^2 in the (x^1, x^2)-plane, is studied for a multi-connected vibrating membrane Ω in R^2 surrounded by simply connected bounded domains Ωj with smooth boundaries δΩj(j=1,...,n), where a finite number of piecewise smooth Robin boundary conditions on the piecewise smooth components Гi(i=1 κj-1,...,κj) of the boundaries δΩj are considered, such that δΩj=∪i=1 κj-1^κj Гi and κ0=0. The basic problem is to extract information on the geometry of Ω using the wave equation approach. Some geometric quantities of Ω (e.g. the area of Ω, the total lengths of its boundary, the curvature of its boundary, the number of the holes of Ω, etc.) are determined from the asymptotic expansion of the trace of the wave kernel ∧↑μ(t) for small |t|.

Wavelets and Geometric Structure for Function Spaces

Abstract With Littlewood–Paley analysis, Peetre and Triebel classified, systematically, almost all the usual function spaces into two classes of spaces: Besov spaces and Triebel–Lizorkin spaces ; but the structure of dual spaces of is very different from that of Besov spaces or that of Triebel–Lizorkin spaces, and their structure cannot be analysed easily in the Littlewood–Paley analysis. Our main goal is to characterize in tent spaces with wavelets. By the way, some applications are given: (i) Triebel–Lizorkin spaces for p = ∞ defined by Littlewood–Paley analysis cannot serve as the dual spaces of Triebel–Lizorkin spaces for p = 1; (ii) Some inclusion relations among these above spaces and some relations among and L ¹ are studied.

Some Limit Theorems for a Particle System of Single Point Catalytic Branching Random Walks

We study the scaling limit for a catalytic branching particle system whose particles perform random walks on Z and can branch at 0 only. Varying the initial （finite） number of particles, we get for this system different limiting distributions. To be more specific, suppose that initially there are n^β particles and consider the scaled process Zt^n（·） = Znt（√n·）, where Zt is the measure-valued process 1 and to a representing the original particle system. We prove that Ztn converges to 0 when β 〈1/4 and to a nondegenerate discrete distribution when β=1/4.In addition,if 1/4〈β〈1/2 then n-^（2β-1/2）Zt^n converges to a random limit,while if β 〉21then n^-βZtn converges to a deterministic limit.     

On the Convergence of Products γ^-sh1hn in the Adams Spectral Sequence

Abstract Let A be the mod p Steenrod algebra and S the sphere spectrum localized at p, where p is an odd prime. In 2001 Lin detected a new family in the stable homotopy of spheres which is represented by （b0hn-h1bn-1）∈ ExtA^3,（p^n＋p）q（Zp,Zp） in the Adams spectral sequence. At the same time, he proved that i.（hlhn） ∈ExtA^2,（p^n＋P）q（H^＊M, Zp） is a permanent cycle in the Adams spectral sequence and converges to a nontrivial element ξn∈π（p^n＋p）q-2M. In this paper, with Lin＇s results, we make use of the Adams spectral sequence and the May spectral sequence to detect a new nontrivial family of homotopy elements jj′j^-γsi^-i′ξn in the stable homotopy groups of spheres. The new one is of degree p^nq ＋ sp^2q ＋ spq ＋ （s - 2）q ＋ s - 6 and is represented up to a nonzero scalar by hlhnγ-s in the E2^s＋2,＊-term of the Adams spectral sequence, where p ≥ 7, q = 2（p - 1）, n ≥ 4 and 3 ≤ s 〈 p.

Semi-Fredholm Spectrum and Weyl＇s Theorem for Operator Matrices

When A ∈ B（H） and B ∈ B（K） are given, we denote by Mc an operator acting on the Hilbert space HΘ K of the form Me = （ A0 CB）. In this paper, first we give the necessary and sufficient condition for Mc to be an upper semi-Fredholm （lower semi-Fredholm, or Fredholm） operator for some C ∈B（K,H）. In addition, let σSF＋（A） = {λ ∈ C ： A-λI is not an upper semi-Fredholm operator} bc the upper semi-Fredholm spectrum of A ∈ B（H） and let σrsF- （A） = {λ∈ C ： A-λI is not a lower semi-Fredholm operator} be the lower semi Fredholm spectrum of A. We show that the passage from σSF±（A） U σSF±（B） to σSF±（Mc） is accomplished by removing certain open subsets of σSF-（A） ∩σSF＋ （B） from the former, that is, there is an equality σSF±（A） ∪σSF± （B） = σSF± （Mc） ∪＆ where L is the union of certain of the holes in σSF±（Mc） which ilappen to be subsets of σSF- （A） A σSF＋ （B）. Weyl＇s theorem and Browder＇s theorem are liable to fail for 2 × 2 operator matrices. In this paper, we also explore how Weyl＇s theorem, Browder＇s theorem, a-Weyl＇s theorem and a-Browder＇s theorem survive for 2 × 2 upper triangular operator matrices on the Hilbert space.

Let p = （pk）k=0^∞ be a bounded sequence of positive reals, m C N and u be s sequence of nonzero terms. If x = （xk）k=0^∞ is any sequence of complex numbers we write Δ（m）x for the sequence of the m th order differences of x and Δu^（m）X = {x=（x）k=0^∞ uΔ（m）x ∈ X} for any set X of sequences. We determine the α-, β- and γ-duals of the sets Δμ^（m）X for X=co（p）,c（p）,l∞（p） and characterize some matrix transformations between these spaces Δ^（m）X.

The Cauchy Problem for the Generalized Korteweg-de Vries-Benjamin-Ono Equation with Low Regularity Data

The Cauchy problem of the generalized Korteweg-de Vries-Benjamin-Ono equation is considered, and low regularity and limit behavior of the solutions are obtained. For k = 1, local well- posedness is obtained for data in H^s（R）（s 〉 -3/4）. For k = 2, local result for data in H^S（R）（s 〉1/4） is obtained. For k = 3, local result for data in H^S（R）（s 〉 -1/6） is obtained. Moreover, the solutions of generalized Korteweg-de Vries-Benjamin-Ono equation converge to the solutions of KdV equation if the term of Benjamin-Ono equation tends to zero.
