Zeros ofA p functions and related classes of analytic functions

The functionf(z), analytic in the unit disc, is inA ^p if \(\int {\int {_{\left| z \right|< 1} \left| {f(z)} \right|^p dxdy< \infty } } \) . A necessary condition on the moduli of the zeros ofA ^p functions is shown to be best possible. The functionf(z) belongs toB ^p if \(\int {\int {_{\left| z \right|< 1} \log ^ + \left| {f(z)} \right|)^p } } \) . Let {z _n } be the zero set of aB ^p function. A necessary condition on |z _n | is obtained, which, in particular, implies that Σ(1?|z _n |)^1+(1/p)+g <∞ for all ε>0 (p≧1). A condition on the Taylor coefficients off is obtained, which is sufficient for inclusion off inB ^p. This in turn shows that the necessary condition on |z _n | is essentially the best possible. Another consequence is that, forq≧1,p<q, there exists aB ^p zero set which is not aB ^q zero set.     

Weighted inequalities for fractional type operators with some homogeneous kernels

In this paper, we study integral operators of the form Tαf(x)=∫Rn|x-A1y|-α1 ··· |x-Amy|-αmf(y)dy,where Ai are certain invertible matrices, αi 0, 1 ≤ i ≤ m, α1 + ··· + αm = n-α, 0 ≤α n. For 1/q = 1/p-α/n , we obtain the Lp (Rn, wp)-Lq(Rn, wq) boundedness for weights w in A(p, q) satisfying that there exists c 0 such that w(Aix) ≤ cw(x), a.e. x ∈ Rn , 1 ≤ i ≤ m.Moreover, we obtain theappropriate weighted BMO and weak type estimates for certain weights satisfying the above inequality. We also give a Coifman type estimate for these operators.     

On error bounds forG-stable methods

Error bounds for numerical solutions of the initial value problem $$y' = f(y), y(0) = \bar y \in R^d ,$$ are derived. The methods (?,σ) are assumed to beG-stable [2], andf satisfies for someμ teR and for some inner product 〈, 〉 the relation $$\left\langle {u - v,f(u)} \right\rangle \leqq \mu \left\| {u - v} \right\|^2 ,u,v \in R^d $$ As corollaries of the bounds we get, forμ=0, the result that whenever the local errors {q _n } ∈l ¹ then the global errors {z _n } ∈l ^∞. Forμ<0, assuming in addition that the zeros ofσ(ζ) lie inside the unit circle, {q _n } tel ^p implies {z _n } tel ^p forp ≧ 2.     

Commutators of the fractional maximal function on variable exponent Lebesgue spaces

Let \({M_\beta }\) be the fractional maximal function. The commutator generated by \({M_\beta }\) and a suitable function b is defined by \([{M_\beta },b]f = {M_\beta }(bf) - b{M_\beta }(f)\) . Denote by P(? ⁿ ) the set of all measurable functions p(·): ? ⁿ → [1,∞) such that $1 < p_ - : = \mathop {es\sin fp(x)}\limits_{x \in \mathbb{R}^n } andp_ + : = \mathop {es\operatorname{s} \sup p(x) < \infty }\limits_{x \in \mathbb{R}^n } ,$ and by B(? ⁿ ) the set of all p(·) ∈ P(? ⁿ ) such that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function M is bounded on L ^p(·)(? ⁿ ). In this paper, the authors give some characterizations of b for which \([{M_\beta },b]\) is bounded from L ^p(·)(? ⁿ ) into L ^q(·)(? ⁿ ), when p(·) ∈ P(? ⁿ ), 0 < β < n/p ₊ and 1/q(·) = 1/p(·) ? β/n with q(·)(n ? β)/n ∈ B(? ⁿ ).     

Existence and asymptotic behaviour of solutions of the very fast diffusion equation

Let n ≥ 3, 0 < m ≤ (n ? 2)/n, p > max(1, (1 ? m)n/2), and ${0 \le u_0 \in L_{loc}^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ satisfy ${{\rm lim \, inf}_{R\to\infty}R^{-n+\frac{2}{1-m}} \int_{|x|\le R}u_0\,dx = \infty}$ . We prove the existence of unique global classical solution of u _t = Δu ^m , u > 0, in ${\mathbb{R}^n \times (0, \infty), u(x, 0) = u_0(x)}$ in ${\mathbb{R}^n}$ . If in addition 0 < m < (n ? 2)/n and u ₀(x) ≈ A|x|^?q as |x| → ∞ for some constants A > 0, q < n/p, we prove that there exist constants α, β, such that the function v(x, t) = t ^α u(t ^β x, t) converges uniformly on every compact subset of ${\mathbb{R}^n}$ to the self-similar solution ψ(x, 1) of the equation with ψ(x, 0) = A|x|^?q as t → ∞. Note that when m = (n ? 2)/(n + 2), n ≥ 3, if ${g_{ij} = u^{\frac{4}{n+2}}\delta_{ij}}$ is a metric on ${\mathbb{R}^n}$ that evolves by the Yamabe flow ?g _ij /?t = ?Rg _ij with u(x, 0) = u ₀(x) in ${\mathbb{R}^n}$ where R is the scalar curvature, then u(x, t) is a global solution of the above fast diffusion equation.     

The generating function for traces of singular moduli and an application to Borcherds products

Let p be a prime and f(z)=∑ n a(n)q n be a weakly holomorphic modular function for \varGamma 0*(p2)\varGamma _{0}^{*}(p^{2}) with a(0)=0. We use Bruinier and Funke’s work to find the generating series of modular traces of f(z) as Jacobi forms. And as an application we construct Borcherds products related to the Hauptmoduln jp2*j_{p^{2}}^{*} for genus zero groups \varGamma 0*(p2)\varGamma _{0}^{*}(p^{2}).     

On the functions counting walks with small steps in the quarter plane

Models of spatially homogeneous walks in the quarter plane $\mathbf{ Z}_{+}^{2}$ with steps taken from a subset $\mathcal{S}$ of the set of jumps to the eight nearest neighbors are considered. The generating function (x,y,z)?Q(x,y;z) of the numbers q(i,j;n) of such walks starting at the origin and ending at $(i,j) \in\mathbf{ Z}_{+}^{2}$ after n steps is studied. For all non-singular models of walks, the functions x?Q(x,0;z) and y?Q(0,y;z) are continued as multi-valued functions on C having infinitely many meromorphic branches, of which the set of poles is identified. The nature of these functions is derived from this result: namely, for all the 51 walks which admit a certain infinite group of birational transformations of C ², the interval $]0,1/|\mathcal{S}|[$ of variation of z splits into two dense subsets such that the functions x?Q(x,0;z) and y?Q(0,y;z) are shown to be holonomic for any z from the one of them and non-holonomic for any z from the other. This entails the non-holonomy of (x,y,z)?Q(x,y;z), and therefore proves a conjecture of Bousquet-Mélou and Mishna in Contemp. Math. 520:1?C40 (2010).     

On the best polynomial approximation of entire transcendental functions in banach spaces. I

We study the behavior of the best approximationsE _n (?) _p of entire transcendental functions ?(z) of the order ρ=∞ by polynomials of at mostn th degree in the metric of the Banach space E′_p(Ω) of functions /tf(z) analytic in a bounded simply connected domain Ω with rectifiable Jordan boundary and such that $$\left\| f \right\|_{E'_p } = \left\{ {\iint_\Omega {\left| {f\left( z \right)} \right|^p }dxdy} \right\}^{{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 p}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} p}}< \infty $$ . In particular, we describe the relationship between the best approximationsE _n (?)_p and theq-order andq-type of the function ?(z).     

Sharp estimates for the convergence rate of “hyperbolic” partial sums of double fourier series in orthogonal polynomials

Two-variable functions f(x, y) from the class L ₂ = L ₂((a, b) × (c, d); p(x)q(y)) with the weight p(x)q(y) and the norm $$\left\| f \right\| = \sqrt {\int\limits_a^b {\int\limits_c^d {p(x)q(x)f^2 (x,y)dxdy} } }$$ are approximated by an orthonormal system of orthogonal P _n (x)Q _n (y), n, m = 0, 1, ..., with weights p(x) and q(y). Let $$E_N (f) = \mathop {\inf }\limits_{P_N } \left\| {f - P_N } \right\|$$ denote the best approximation of f ?? L ₂ by algebraic polynomials of the form $$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {P_N (x,y) = \sum\limits_{0 < n,m < N} {a_{m,n} x^n y^m ,} } \\ {P_1 (x,y) = const.} \\ \end{array}$$ . Consider a double Fourier series of f ?? L ₂ in the polynomials P _n (x)Q _m (y), n, m = 0, 1, ..., and its ??hyperbolic?? partial sums $$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {S_1 (f;x,y) = c_{0,0} (f)P_o (x)Q_o (y),} \\ {S_N (f;x,y) = \sum\limits_{0 < n,m < N} {c_{n,m} (f)P_n (x)Q_m (y), N = 2,3, \ldots .} } \\ \end{array}$$ A generalized shift operator Fh and a kth-order generalized modulus of continuity ?? _k (A, h) of a function f ?? L ₂ are used to prove the following sharp estimate for the convergence rate of the approximation: $\begin{gathered} E_N (f) \leqslant (1 - (1 - h)^{2\sqrt N } )^{ - k} \Omega _k (f;h),h \in (0,1), \hfill \\ N = 4,5,...;k = 1,2,... \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $ . Moreover, for every fixed N = 4, 9, 16, ..., the constant on the right-hand side of this inequality is cannot be reduced.     

Limit ultraspherical series and their approximation properties

We study new series of the form $\sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {f_k^{ - 1} \hat P_k^{ - 1} (x)} $ in which the general term $f_k^{ - 1} \hat P_k^{ - 1} (x)$ , k = 0, 1, …, is obtained by passing to the limit as α→?1 from the general term $\hat f_k^\alpha \hat P_k^{\alpha ,\alpha } (x)$ of the Fourier series $\sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {f_k^\alpha \hat P_k^{\alpha ,\alpha } (x)} $ in Jacobi ultraspherical polynomials $\hat P_k^{\alpha ,\alpha } (x)$ generating, for α> ?1, an orthonormal system with weight (1 ? x ₂)α on [?1, 1]. We study the properties of the partial sums $S_n^{ - 1} (f,x) = \sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^n {f_k^{ - 1} \hat P_k^{ - 1} (x)} $ of the limit ultraspherical series $\sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {f_k^{ - 1} \hat P_k^{ - 1} (x)} $ . In particular, it is shown that the operator S _n ^?1 (f) = S _n ^?1 (f, x) is the projection onto the subspace of algebraic polynomials p _n = p _n (x) of degree at most n, i.e., S _n (p _n ) = p _n ; in addition, S _n ^?1 (f, x) coincides with f(x) at the endpoints ±1, i.e., S _n ^?1 (f,±1) = f(±1). It is proved that the Lebesgue function Λ _n (x) of the partial sums S _n ^?1 (f, x) is of the order of growth equal to O(ln n), and, more precisely, it is proved that $\Lambda _n (x) \leqslant c(1 + \ln (1 + n\sqrt {1 - x^2 } )), - 1 \leqslant x \leqslant 1$ .     

Isometric embed-dings between classical Banach spaces,cubature formulas,and spherical designs

If an isometric embeddingl _p ^m →l _q ⁿ with finitep, q>1 exists, thenp=2 andq is an even integer. Under these conditions such an embedding exists if and only ifn?N(m, q) where $$\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {m + q/2 - 1} \\ {m - 1} \\ \end{array} } \right) \leqslant N(m,q) \leqslant \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {m + q - 1} \\ {m - 1} \\ \end{array} } \right).$$ To construct some concrete embeddings, one can use orbits of orthogonal representations of finite groups. This yields:N(2,q)=q/2+1 (by regular (q+2)-gon),N(3, 4)=6 (by icosahedron),N(3, 6)?11 (by octahedron), etc. Another approach is based on relations between embeddings, Euclidean or spherical designs and cubature formulas. This allows us to sharpen the above lower bound forN(m, q) and obtain a series of concrete values, e.g.N(3, 8)=16 andN(7, 4)=28. In the cases (m, n, q)=(3, 6, 10) and (3, 8, 15) some ε-embeddings with ε ～ 0.03 are constructed by the orbit method. The rigidness of spherical designs in Bannai's sense and a similar property for the embeddings are considered, and a conjecture of [7] is proved for any fixed (m, n, q).     

Boundedness of maximal,potential type,and singular integral operators in the generalized variable exponent Morrey type spaces

We consider generalized Morrey type spaces M^{p( ·),q( ·),w( ·)}( W) {\mathcal{M}^{p\left( \cdot \right),\theta \left( \cdot \right),\omega \left( \cdot \right)}}\left( \Omega \right) with variable exponents p(x), θ(r) and a general function ω(x, r) defining a Morrey type norm. In the case of bounded sets W ì \mathbbRⁿ \Omega \subset {\mathbb{R}^n} , we prove the boundedness of the Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator and Calderón–Zygmund singular integral operators with standard kernel. We prove a Sobolev–Adams type embedding theorem M^{p( ·),q₁( ·),w₁( ·)}( W) ? M^{q( ·),q₂( ·),w₂( ·)}( W) {\mathcal{M}^{p\left( \cdot \right),{\theta_1}\left( \cdot \right),{\omega_1}\left( \cdot \right)}}\left( \Omega \right) \to {\mathcal{M}^{q\left( \cdot \right),{\theta_2}\left( \cdot \right),{\omega_2}\left( \cdot \right)}}\left( \Omega \right) for the potential type operator I ^α(·) of variable order. In all the cases, we do not impose any monotonicity type conditions on ω(x, r) with respect to r. Bibliography: 40 titles.     

Dilation of Newton Polytope and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic Estimate

Let f(X) be a polynomial in n variables over the finite field  \mathbbF_q\mathbb{F}_{q}. Its Newton polytope Δ(f) is the convex closure in ℝ ⁿ of the origin and the exponent vectors (viewed as points in ℝ ⁿ ) of monomials in f(X). The minimal dilation of Δ(f) such that it contains at least one lattice point of $\mathbb{Z}_{>0}^{n}$\mathbb{Z}_{>0}^{n} plays a vital pole in the p-adic estimate of the number of zeros of f(X) in  \mathbbF_q\mathbb{F}_{q}. Using this fact, we obtain several tight and computational bounds for the dilation which unify and improve a number of previous results in this direction.     

Uniform and mean approximation by certain weighted polynomials,with applications

LetW(x):= exp(-{tiQ(x})), where, for example, Q(x) is even and convex onR, and Q(x)/logx → ∞ asx → ∞. A result of Mhaskar and Saff asserts that ifa _n =a _n (W) is the positive root of the equation $$n = ({2 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {2 \pi }} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} \pi })\int_0^1 {{{a_n xQ'(a_n x)} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{a_n xQ'(a_n x)} {\sqrt {1 - x^2 } }}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\sqrt {1 - x^2 } }}dx,}$$ then, given any polynomialP _n(x) of degree at mostn, the sup norm ofP _n(x)W(a _n x) overR is attained on [-1, 1]. In addition, any sequence of weighted polynomials {p _n (x)W(a _n x)} ₁ ^∞ that is uniformly bounded onR will converge to 0, for ¦x¦>1. In this paper we show that under certain conditions onW, a function g(x) continuous inR can be approximated in the uniform norm by such a sequence {p _n (x)W(a _n x)} ₁ ^∞ if and only if g(x)=0 for ¦x¦? 1. We also prove anL _p analogue for 0W(x)=exp(?|x| ^α ), when α >1. Further applications of our results are upper bounds for Christoffel functions, and asymptotic behavior of the largest zeros of orthogonal polynomials. A final application is an approximation theorem that will be used in a forthcoming proof of Freud's conjecture for |x| ^p exp(?|x| ^α ),α > 0,p > ?1.     

A limit theorem for matrix-solutions of Hamiltonian systems

The following limit theorem on Hamiltonian systems (resp. corresponding Riccati matrix equations) is shown: Given(N, N)-matrices,A, B, C andn ∈ {1,…, N} with the following properties:A and kemelB(x) are constant, rank(I, A, …, A ^n?1) B(x)≠N,B(x)∈C _n(R), andB(x)(A ^T)^j-1 C(x)∈C _n-j(R) forj=1, …, n. Then \(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to x_0 } \eta _1^T \left( x \right)V\left( x \right)U^{ - 1} \left( x \right)\eta _2 \left( x \right) = d_1^T \left( {x_0 } \right)U\left( {x_0 } \right)d_2 \) forx ₀∈R, whenever the matricesU(x), V(x) are a conjoined basis of the differential systemU′=AU + BV, V′=CU?A ^TV, and whenever η_i(x)∈R ^N satisfy η_i(x ₀)=U(x ₀)d _i ∈ imageU(x ₀) η′_i-Aη_ni(x) ∈ imageB(x),B(x)(η′_i(x)-Aη_i(x)) ∈C _n-1 R fori=1,2.     

Orlicz-Hardy spaces and their duals

We establish the theory of Orlicz-Hardy spaces generated by a wide class of functions.The class will be wider than the class of all the N-functions.In particular,we consider the non-smooth atomic decomposition.The relation between Orlicz-Hardy spaces and their duals is also studied.As an application,duality of Hardy spaces with variable exponents is revisited.This work is different from earlier works about Orlicz-Hardy spaces H(Rn)in that the class of admissible functions is largely widened.We can deal with,for example,(r)≡(rp1(log(e+1/r))q1,0r 6 1,rp2(log(e+r))q2,r1,with p1,p2∈(0,∞)and q1,q2∈(.∞,∞),where we shall establish the boundedness of the Riesz transforms on H(Rn).In particular,is neither convex nor concave when 0p11p2∞,0p21p1∞or p1=p2=1 and q1,q20.If(r)≡r(log(e+r))q,then H(Rn)=H(logH)q(Rn).We shall also establish the boundedness of the fractional integral operators I of order∈(0,∞).For example,I is shown to be bounded from H(logH)1./n(Rn)to Ln/(n.)(log L)(Rn)for 0n.

Rate of decay of weakly lacunary series

Let function f(z) ≠ 0 be analytic in the unit disk and have sparse nonzero Taylor coefficients. Then the rate of decay of the function f as x → 1 − 0 depends on the rate of sparseness of its nonzero Taylor coefficients. In this paper, we consider the case f(z) = $ \sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {a_k z^{n_k } } $ \sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {a_k z^{n_k } } , where n _k ≥ A ₀(k + 2) ^p logb(k + 2).     

Refinement of an inequality of P. L. Chebyshev

Let P _n denote the linear space of polynomials p(z:=Σ _k=0 ⁿ a _k (p)z ^k of degree ≦ n with complex coefficients and let |p|_[?1,1]: = max _x∈[?1,1]|p(x)| be the uniform norm of a polynomial p over the unit interval [?1, 1]. Let t _n ∈ P _n be the n ^th Chebyshev polynomial. The inequality $$ \frac{{\left| p \right|_{\left[ { - 1,1} \right]} }} {{\left| {a_n (p)} \right|}} \geqq \frac{{\left| {t_n } \right|_{\left[ { - 1,1} \right]} }} {{\left| {a_n (t_n )} \right|}},p \in P_n $$ due to P. L. Chebyshev can be considered as an extremal property of the Chebyshev polynomial t _n in P _n . The present note contains various extensions and improvements of the above inequality obtained by using complex analysis methods.
