Blow-up criterion for 2-D Boussinesq equations in bounded domain

We extend the results for 2-D Boussinesq equations from ℝ² to a bounded domain Ω. First, as for the existence of weak solutions, we transform Boussinesq equations to a nonlinear evolution equation U _t + A(t, U) = 0. In stead of using the methods of fundamental solutions in the case of entire ℝ², we study the qualities of F(u, υ) = (u · ▽)υ to get some useful estimates for A(t, U), which helps us to conclude the local-in-time existence and uniqueness of solutions. Second, as for blow-up criterions, we use energy methods, Sobolev inequalities and Gronwall inequality to control and by and . Furthermore, can control by using vorticity transportation equations. At last, can control . Thus, we can find a blow-up criterion in the form of .

Birkhoff coordinates for KdV on phase spaces of distributions

The purpose of this paper is to extend the construction of Birkhoff coordinates for the KdV equation from the phase space of square integrable 1-periodic functions with mean value zero to the phase space of mean value zero distributions from the Sobolev space endowed with the symplectic structure More precisely, we construct a globally defined real-analytic symplectomorphism where is a weighted Hilbert space of sequences supplied with the canonical Poisson structure so that the KdV Hamiltonian for potentials in is a function of the actions alone.     

Localization Operators and Exponential Weights for Modulation Spaces

We study localization operators within the framework of ultradistributions. More precisely, given a symbol a and two windows φ₁, φ₂, we investigate the multilinear mapping from to the localization operator Results are formulated in terms of modulation spaces with weights which may have exponential growth. We give sufficient and necessary conditions for a to be bounded or to belong to a Schatten class. As an application, we study symbols defined by ultra-distributions with compact support, that give trace class localization operators.     

A band limited and Besov class functional calculus for Tadmor-Ritt operators

For Banach space operators T satisfying the Tadmor-Ritt condition a band limited H^∞ calculus is established, where and a is at most of the order C(T)⁵. It follows that such a T allows a bounded Besov algebra B_{∞ 1}⁰ functional calculus, These estimates are sharp in a convenient sense. Relevant embedding theorems for B_{∞ 1}⁰ are derived.

Uniformly summing sets of operators on spaces of vector–valued continuous functions

Let X, Y be Banach spaces. We say that a set is uniformly p–summing if the series is uniformly convergent for whenever (x_n) belongs to . We consider uniformly summing sets of operators defined on a -space and prove, in case X does not contain a copy of c₀, that is uniformly summing iff is, where T (φ x) = (T^#φ) x for all and x∈X. We also characterize the sets with the property that is uniformly summing viewed in . Received: 1 July 2005     

Symmetrization of Closure Operators and Visibility

For an arbitrary set E and a given closure operator , we want to construct a symmetric closure operator via some – possibly infinite – iteration process. If E is finite, the corresponding symmetric closure operator . defines a matroid. If and is the convex closure operator, turns out to be the affine closure operator. Moreover, we apply the symmetrization process to closure operators induced by visibility. Received March 9, 2005

On the Schwarz reflection principle for monogenic functions

Let ∑ be either an oriented hyperplane or the unit sphere in , let be open and connected and let be an open and connected domain in such that . If in is a null solution of the Dirac operator (also called a monogenic function in ) which is continuously extendable to , then conditions upon are given enabling the monogenic extension of across . In such a way Schwarz reflection type principles for monogenic functions are established in the Spin (1) and Spin cases. The Spin (1) case includes the classical Schwarz reflection principle for holomorphic functions in the plane. The Spin case deals with so-called “half boundary value problems” for the Dirac operator.

Equidistribution of Rational Matrices in their Conjugacy Classes

Let G be a connected simply connected almost -simple algebraic group with non-compact and a cocompact congruence subgroup. For any homogeneous manifold of finite volume, and a , we show that the Hecke orbit T _a (x ₀ H) is equidistributed on as , provided H is a non-compact commutative reductive subgroup of G. As a corollary, we generalize the equidistribution result of Hecke points ([COU], [EO1]) to homogeneous spaces G/H. As a concrete application, we describe the equidistribution result in the rational matrices with a given characteristic polynomial. The second author partially supported by DMS 0333397.
