Cyclic Functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Bold">R</Emphasis>), 1 \le <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> < \infty

Functions whose translates span L ^p (R) are called L ^p-cyclic functions. For a fixed p \memb [1, \infty], we construct Schwartz-class functions which are L ^r -cyclic for r > p and not L ^r - cyclic for r \le p. We then construct Schwartz-class functions which are L ^r -cyclic for r \ge p and not L ^r -cyclic for r < p. The constructions differ for p \memb (1, 2) and p > 2.     

Approximation by K-finite functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> spaces

Let Γ ⊂ ℝⁿ, n ≥ 2, be the boundary of a bounded domain. We prove that the translates by elements of Γ of functions which transform according to a fixed irreducible representation of the orthogonal group form a dense class in L ^p (ℝⁿ) for . A similar problem for noncompact symmetric spaces of rank one is also considered. We also study the connection of the above problem with the injectivity sets for weighted spherical mean operators.

Some cyclic codes of length 2<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

Explicit expressions for 4n + 2 primitive idempotents in the semi-simple group ring $R_{2p^{n}}\equiv \frac{GF(q)[x]}{p and q are distinct odd primes; n ≥ 1 is an integer and q has order \fracf(2pⁿ)2{\frac{\phi(2p^{n})}{2}} modulo 2p ⁿ . The generator polynomials, the dimension, the minimum distance of the minimal cyclic codes of length 2p ⁿ generated by these 4n + 2 primitive idempotents are discussed. For n = 1, the properties of some (2p, p) cyclic codes, containing the above minimal cyclic codes are analyzed in particular. The minimum weight of some subset of each of these (2p, p) codes are observed to satisfy a square root bound.     

Atomic hardy-type spaces between <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> on metric spaces with non-doubling measures

Let ( Y,d,dl )\left( {\mathcal{Y},d,d\lambda } \right) be (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, μ), where |·| is the Euclidean distance, μ is a nonnegative Radon measure on ℝ ⁿ satisfying the polynomial growth condition, or the Gauss measure metric space (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, d _λ ), or the space (S, d, ρ), where S ≡ ℝ ⁿ ⋉ ℝ⁺ is the (ax + b)-group, d is the left-invariant Riemannian metric and ρ is the right Haar measure on S with exponential growth. In this paper, the authors introduce and establish some properties of the atomic Hardy-type spaces { X_s ( Y ) }_{0 < s \leqslant ￥}\left\{ {X_s \left( \mathcal{Y} \right)} \right\}_{0 < s \leqslant \infty } and the BMO-type spaces { BMO( Y, s ) }_{0 < s \leqslant ￥}\left\{ {BMO\left( {\mathcal{Y}, s} \right)} \right\}_{0 < s \leqslant \infty }. Let H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) be the known atomic Hardy space and L ₀¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) the subspace of f ∈ L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) with integral 0. The authors prove that the dual space of X _s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) is BMO( Y,s )BMO\left( {\mathcal{Y},s} \right) when s ∈ (0,∞), X _s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) = H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) when s ∈ (0, 1], and X _∞ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) = L ₀¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) (or L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right)). As applications, the authors show that if T is a linear operator bounded from H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) and from L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to L ^1,∞ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right), then for all r ∈ (1,∞) and s ∈ (r,∞], T is bounded from X _r ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to the Lorentz space L ^1,s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right), which applies to the Calderón-Zygmund operator on (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, μ), the imaginary powers of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator on (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, d _γ ) and the spectral operator associated with the spectral multiplier on (S, d, ρ). All these results generalize the corresponding results of Sweezy, Abu-Shammala and Torchinsky on Euclidean spaces.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> approximation capability of RBF neural networks

L ^p approximation capability of radial basis function (RBF) neural networks is investigated. If g: R ₊¹ → R ¹ and ∈ L _loc ^p (R ⁿ ) with 1 ≤ p < ∞, then the RBF neural networks with g as the activation function can approximate any given function in L ^p (K) with any accuracy for any compact set K in R ⁿ , if and only if g(x) is not an even polynomial.

On the <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>-conjecture for locally compact groups

Let G be a locally compact group. For 1 < p < ∞, it is well-known that f * g exists and belongs to L^p(G) for all f, g L^p (G) if and only if G is compact. Here, for 2 < p < ∞, we show that f * g exists for all f, g L^p(G) if and only if G is compact. We also show that this result does not remain true for 1 < p ≤ 2. Received: 23 April 2006

A Noncommutative Version of <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> and Characterizations of Subdiagonal Algebras

Let M{\mathcal M} be a σ-finite von Neumann algebra and \mathfrak A{\mathfrak A} a maximal subdiagonal algebra of M{\mathcal M} with respect to a faithful normal conditional expectation F{\Phi} . Based on Haagerup’s noncommutative L ^p space L^p(M){L^p(\mathcal M)} associated with M{\mathcal M} , we give a noncommutative version of H ^p space relative to \mathfrak A{\mathfrak A} . If h ₀ is the image of a faithful normal state j{\varphi} in L¹(M){L^1(\mathcal M)} such that j°F = j{\varphi\circ \Phi=\varphi} , then it is shown that the closure of {\mathfrak Ah₀^\frac1p}{\{\mathfrak Ah_0^{\frac1p}\}} in L^p(M){L^p(\mathcal M)} for 1 ≤ p < ∞ is independent of the choice of the state preserving F{\Phi} . Moreover, several characterizations for a subalgebra of the von Neumann algebra M{\mathcal M} to be a maximal subdiagonal algebra are given.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">r</Emphasis></Superscript> convergence for <Emphasis Type="Italic">B</Emphasis>-valued random elements

The paper investigates L ^p convergence and Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund strong laws of large numbers for random elements in a Banach space under the condition that the Banach space is of Rademacher type p, 1 < p < 2. The paper also discusses L ^r convergence and L ^r bound for random elements without any geometric restriction condition on the Banach space.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis>-bounded Representations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> (<Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>)

We investigate R-bounded representations , where X is a Banach space and G is a lca group. Observing that Ψ induces a (strongly continuous) group homomorphism , we are then able to analyze certain classical homomorphisms U (e.g. translations in L^p (G)) from the viewpoint of R-boundedness and the theory of scalar-type spectral operators.

The complexity and depth of Boolean circuits for multiplication and inversion in some fields <Emphasis Type="Italic">GF</Emphasis>(2<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>)

Let n = (p − 1) · p ^k , where p is a prime number such that 2 is a primitive root modulo p, and 2 ^p−1 − 1 is not a multiple of p ². For a standard basis of the field GF(2 ⁿ ), a multiplier of complexity O(log log p)n log n log log _p n and an inverter of complexity O(log p log log p)n log n log log _p n are constructed. In particular, in the case p = 3 the upper bound

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-Approximation Order of Surface Spline Interpolation for 1 \leq <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> \leq 2

We show that the L_p-approximation order of surface spline interpolation equals m+1/p for p in the range 1 \leq p \leq 2, where m is an integer parameter which specifies the surface spline. Previously it was known that this order was bounded below by m + &frac; and above by m+1/p. With h denoting the fill-distance between the interpolation points and the domain , we show specifically that the L_p()-norm of the error between f and its surface spline interpolant is O(h^{m + 1/p}) provided that f belongs to an appropriate Sobolev or Besov space and that \subset R^d is open, bounded, and has the C^2m-regularity property. We also show that the boundary effects (which cause the rate of convergence to be significantly worse than O(h^2m)) are confined to a boundary layer whose width is no larger than a constant multiple of h |log h|. Finally, we state numerical evidence which supports the conjecture that the L_p-approximation order of surface spline interpolation is m + 1/p for 2 < p \leq \infty.     

Semiclassical <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> Estimates of Quasimodes on Curved Hypersurfaces

Let M be a compact manifold of dimension n, P=P(h) a semiclassical pseudodifferential operator on M, and u=u(h) an L ² normalized family of functions such that P(h)u(h) is O(h) in L ²(M) as h↓0. Let H⊂M be a compact submanifold of M. In a previous article, the second-named author proved estimates on the L ^p norms, p≥2, of u restricted to H, under the assumption that the u are semiclassically localized and under some natural structural assumptions about the principal symbol of P. These estimates are of the form Ch ^−δ(n,k,p) where k=dim H (except for a logarithmic divergence in the case k=n−2, p=2). When H is a hypersurface, i.e., k=n−1, we have δ(n,n−1, 2)=1/4, which is sharp when M is the round n-sphere and H is an equator.     

Optimal Domains and Integral Representations of Convolution Operators in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>)

Given , a compact abelian group G and a function , we identify the maximal (i.e. optimal) domain of the convolution operator (as an operator from L^p(G) to itself). This is the largest Banach function space (with order continuous norm) into which L^p(G) is embedded and to which has a continuous extension, still with values in L^p(G). Of course, the optimal domain depends on p and g. Whereas is compact, this is not always so for the extension of to its optimal domain. Several characterizations of precisely when this is the case are presented.

Let p be an odd prime number, and p^n₀{p^{n_0}} the highest power of p dividing 2 ^p−1 − 1. Let K_n=Q(z_pⁿ⁺¹){K_n={\bf Q}(\zeta_{p^{n+1}})} and L_n,j=K_n⁺(z_2^j+2){L_{n,j}=K_n^+(\zeta_{2^{j+2}})} for j ≥ 0. Let h_n^*{h_n^*} be the relative class number of K _n , and h _n,j the class number of L _n,j , respectively. Let n be an integer with n ≥ n ₀. We prove that if the ratio h_n^*/h_n-1^*{h_n^*/h_{n-1}^*} is odd, then h _n,j /h _n−1,j is odd for any j ≥ 0.

We prove that a typical measure μ is as irregular as possible: for all q ≥ 1, the lower L^q-dimension attains the smallest possible value and the upper L^q-dimension attains the largest possible value.

We study the approximation of the classes of functions by the manifold R _n formed by all possible linear combinations of n ridge functions of the form r(a · x)): It is proved that, for any 1 ≤ q ≤ p ≤ ∞, the deviation of the Sobolev class W ^r _p from the set R _n of ridge functions in the space L _q (B ^d ) satisfies the sharp order n ^-r/(d-1).
