A SIMPLIFIED BRAUER＇S THEOREM ON MATRIX EIGENVALUES

Let A=(a _ij)∈C ^n×n and . Suppose that for each row of A there is at least one nonzero off-diagonal entry. It is proved that all eigenvalues of A are contained in . The result reduces the number of ovals in original Brauer’s theorem in many cases. Eigenvalues (and associated eigenvectors) that locate in the boundary of are discussed.

Numerical bifurcation and stability analysis for steady-states of reaction diffusion equations

Solutions of a semilinear elliptic boundary value problem, (with bounded below) can be put into a one-to-one correspondence with zeros of a function . Often d is small. The function is called the bifurcation function. It can also be shown that the eigenvalues of the matrix characterize the stability properties of the solutions of the elliptic problem as rest points of . A finite element method that can be used for computing B and B _c has recently been proposed. An overview of these results and the finite element method is given.

On relatively aspherical presentations and their central extensions

Under the condition of asphericity of a quotient group , mutual commutants of the form in hyperbolic groups G are investigated together with the structure of central subgroups in central extensions of . In particular, quotients of the form G/[g ^m , G] are considered, where g is an element of infinite order from a hyperbolic group G and m is sufficiently large (depending on g). __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 11, No. 2, pp. 115–125, 2005.     

On the area swept under the occupation process of an M/M/1 queue in a busy period

We compute in this paper the distribution of the area swept under the occupation process of an M/M/1 queue during a busy period. For this purpose, we use the expression of the Laplace transform of the random variable established in earlier studies as a fraction of Bessel functions. To get information on the poles and the residues of , we take benefit of the fact that this function can be represented by a continued fraction. We then show that this continued fraction is the even part of an S fraction and we identify its successive denominators by means of Lommel polynomials. This allows us to numerically evaluate the poles and the residues. Numerical evidence shows that the poles are very close to the numbers as . This motivated us to formulate some conjectures, which lead to the derivation of the asymptotic behaviour of the poles and the residues. This is finally used to derive the asymptotic behaviour of the probability survivor function . The outstanding property of the random variable is that the poles accumulate at 0 and its tail does not exhibit a nice exponential decay but a decay of the form for some positive constants c and , which indicates that the random variable has a Weibull-like tail.

Holomorphic automorphisms and collective compactness in J*-algebras of operator

Let G be the Banach-Lie group of all holomorphic automorphisms of the open unit ball in a J^*-algebra of operators. Let be the family of all collectively compact subsets W contained in . We show that the subgroup F ⊂ G of all those g ∈ G that preserve the family is a closed Lie subgroup of G and characterize its Banach-Lie algebra. We make a detailed study of F when is a Cartan factor.      

Energy transfer in the Kuramoto-Sivashinskii equation on a multidimensional torus with Riemannian metric

In this paper, we consider the Kuramoto-Sivashinskii equation on the multidimensional torus with a Riemannian metric: where . For this equation the theorem on energy transfer holds. It is formulated in the following way. Let be the Fourier expansion of the function u. Denote by P _N and P _N ^⊥ the operators of rejection of the “leading” and, respectively, “lowest” terms of the Fourier expansion (harmonics), i.e., . For any ρ > 0,N ∈ ℕ, s ≥ n/2+5, and λ ∈ (0, 1), there exists R such that for any function. ϕ ∈ lying outside the ball in the ball , there exists an instant of time t ∈ (0, 1) such that g _KS ^t ϕ=ψ and . Here, R is a constant depending on the metric (g), n _s is the sth Sobolev norm, and is the C ¹-norm. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika i Ee Prilozheniya (Contemporary Mathematics and Its Applications), Vol. 24, Dynamical Systems and Optimization, 2005.     

Properties of Codes from Difference Sets in 2-Groups

A ( v, k, λ)-difference set D in a group G can be used to create a symmetric 2-( v, k, λ) design, , from which arises a code C, generated by vectors corresponding to the characteristic function of blocks of . This paper examines properties of the code C, and of a subcode, C ^o=JC, where J is the radical of the group algebra of G over . When G is a 2-group, it is shown that C^o is equivalent to the first-order Reed-Muller code, , precisely when the 2-divisor of C^o is maximal. In addition, ifD is a non-trivial difference set in an elementary abelian 2-group, and if D is generated by a quadratic bent function, then C^o is equal to a power of the radical. Finally, an example is given of a difference set whose characteristic function is not quadratic, although the 2-divisor of C^o is maximal.
