Projections on Lp-spaces of polyanalytic functions

The fundamental result: for an arbitrary bounded, simply connected domain in , the subspace L_n,m ^p() of the space L^p(, ) ( is the plane Lebesgue measure, p 1), consisting of the (m, n)-analytic functions in , is complemented in LP(, ) (a function f is said to be (m, n)-analytic if (^m+n/¯Z^mZⁿ)f=0 in ). Consequently, by virtue of a theorem of J. Lindenstrauss and A. Pelczyski, the space L_n,m ^P() is linearly homeomorphic to lP. In particular, for m=n=1 we obtain that the space of all harmonic L^P-functions in is complemented in L^P(, ). This result has been known earlier only for smooth domains.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im. V. A.

Boundary control of heat conduction

The paper considers control of the heat conduction process u_t — u = g from the initial state u(x, 0) to the final state u(x, t₁) in a fixed (finite) time t₁ via the coefficient (z) in the boundary condition Bu = (u/n) + (x)u. A uniqueness theorem is proved for the problem to find the process—control pair (u, ). The control problem is posed in terms of the coefficient in a boundary condition of the form Bu = (u/n) + (t)u.Translated from Nelineinye Dinamicheskie Sistemy: Kachestvennyi Analiz i Upravlenie — Sbornik Trudov, No. 3, pp. 93–97, 1993.     

Sufficient Conditions for the Existence of Disintegrations

Let be a probability space and a partition of . A necessary and sufficient condition is given for the existence of a -additive and measurable disintegration of P on . It is also shown that P admits a -additive (but not measurable) disintegration on whenever is a standard space and the set (₁, ₂):₁ and ₂ are in the same element of } is coanalytic in ×. Finally, sufficient statistics (in the classical Fisherian sense) are investigated by using -additive disintegrations as conditional probabilities.     

An Inequality for Tail Probabilities of Martingales with Bounded Differences

Let M _n =X₁+...+X_n be a martingale with bounded differences X_m=M_m-M_m-1 such that {|X_m| _m}=1 with some nonnegative _m. Write ²= ₁ ² + ... + _n ² . We prove the inequalities {M _nx}c(1-(x/)), {M _n x} 1- c(1- (-x/)) with a constant . The result yields sharp inequalities in some models related to the measure concentration phenomena.     

Vector Valued Differentiation Theorems for Multiparameter Additive Processes in Lp Spaces

Let X be a Banach space and (,,µ) be a -finite measure space. We consider a strongly continuous d-dimensional semigroup T={T(u):u=(u₁,..., u_d, u_i >0, 1 i d} of linear contractions on L_p((,,µ); X), with 1 p<. In this paper differentiation theorems are proved for d-dimensional bounded processes in L_p((,,µ); X) which are additive with respect to T. In the theorems below we assume that each T(u) possesses a contraction majorant P(u) defined on L_p((,,µ); R), that is, P(u) is a positive linear contraction on L_p((,,µ); R) such that T(u)f(w) P(u)f(·)() almost everywhere on for all f L_p((,,µ); X).     

Rigidity of circle domains whose boundary hasσ-finite linear measure

Summary Let be a circle domain in the Riemann sphere whose boundary has -finite linear measure. We show that is rigid in the sense that any conformal homeomorphism of onto any other circle domain is equal to the restriction of a Möbius transformation. Previously, Kaufman and Bishop have independently found examples of non-rigid circle, domains whose boundary is a Cantor set of (Hausdorff) dimension one.Oblatum 19-VI-1992 & 2-IV-1993Supported by NSF and Sloan Foundation     

On Generalized (σ,τ)-Derivations

We generalize the notion of (,)-derivation of Nakajima and Bresar. We define the generalized (,)-derivations, generalized Jordan (,)-derivations, and generalized Lie (,)-derivations, We study interrelations between these classes of derivations as well as their homological properties.

Central orderings in fields of real meromorphic function germs

Let X_oR ⁿ be an irreducible analytic germ and the order space of its field of meromorphicfunetion germs. A formal half-branch in X_o is a kind of C-map germ c[0,)X_o; an ordering is centered at c if it contains the functions which are positive on c. We obtain a partition ¹,...,^d, d=dim X_o, of the set ^* of central (i.e.: centered at some half-branch) orderings, according to the dimension of half-branches. Then we show that all ^e, e= 1,.,d, as well as the set \^* of noncentral orderings, are dense in . Finally, we solve the 17th Hubert Problem for analytic germs.     

Nonlinear Diffusion with Absorption

We consider the nonlinear diffusion-absorption problem in L¹() u - div a(, Du) + j (, u) f on , u = 0 on where is an arbitrary open set in ^N. Conditions for the existence of a strong solution are presented and the existence of a natural generalized solution in the general case is established. We study the dependence of the generalized solution on the absorption term j and characterize generalized solutions which are essentially bounded.

Summary Consider the Dirichlet problem for an elliptic equation in a domain , with coefficients having discontinuity on a surface . Suppose divides into _{1 2}(₂ the inner core), the thickness of ₁ is of order of magnitude , and the modulus of ellipticity in ₁ is of order magnitude ₁.

We study the regularity of the minimizer u for the functional F (u,f)=|u|² + |u–f{² over all maps uH ¹(, S ²). We prove that for some suitable functions f every minimizer u is smooth in if ₀ and for the same functions f, u has singularities when is large enough.

Characterizations of absolute F σδ-sets

We give several internal characterizations for the metrizable absolute F -spaces. The characterizing conditions involve the existence of compatible bicomplete quasi-metrics, of complete sequences of -discrete closed covers and of compact -discrete closed networks.     

Cofibrations of algebras

Summary The chain complex of a twisted free product A_*t, FK, is chain homotopy equivalent to a differential graded algebra, which is identified to be a confibration of algebras as defined by Quillen. Under certain connectivity conditions we obtain a long exact sequence connecting the homologies of A, K, and A_*t FK. In particular we derive a long exact sequence connecting the homologies of Y, X and (Y U_g CX) (, C, are the loop, the cone and the suspension constructions respectively). A chain complex equivalent to the chain complex of the Milnor free group FX is recognized, from which results a theorem of Bott and Samelson that H(X) is freely generated as a graded algebra by H(X).

The structure of () is determined, conditions for the splittingoff of () from an arbitrary matrix-valued function W(), j-expanding in ¦|< 1, are formed, a theorem on the parametrization of a j-elementary matrix-valued function () of full rank is proved, and a decomposition of () of full rank into the product of parametrized j-elementary factors of full rank with simple poles at the point ₀ is found.Translated from Teoriya Funktsii, Funktsional'nyi Analiz i Ikh Prilozheniya, No. 50, pp. 62–74, 1988.     

φ-Factors for Function Seminorms

Let (, A, ) be a measure space, a function seminorm on M, the space of measurable functions on , and M the space {f M : (f) < }. Every Borel measurable function : [0, ) [0, ) induces a function : M M by (f)(x) = (|f(x)|). We introduce the concepts of -factor and -invariant space. If is a -subadditive seminorm function, we give, under suitable conditions over , necessary and sufficient conditions in order that M be invariant and prove the existence of -factors for . We also give a characterization of the best -factor for a -subadditive function seminorm when is -finite. All these results generalize those about multiplicativity factors for function seminorms proved earlier.
