On some Dirichlet series related to the Riemann zeta function,I

On the assumption of the truth of the Riemann hypothesis for the Riemann zeta function we construct a class of modified von-Mangoldt functions with slightly better mean value properties than the well known function L\Lambda . For every e ? (0,1/2)\varepsilon \in (0,1/2) there is a [(L)\tilde] : \Bbb N ? \Bbb C\tilde {\Lambda} : \Bbb N \to \Bbb C such that¶ i) [(L)\tilde] (n) = L (n) (1 + O(n^-1/4  logn))\tilde {\Lambda} (n) = \Lambda (n) (1 + O(n^{-1/4\,} \log n)) and¶ii) ?_{n \leqq x} [(L)\tilde] (n) (1- [(n)/(x)]) = [(x)/2] + O(x^1/4+e) (x \geqq 2).\sum \limits_{n \leqq x} \tilde {\Lambda} (n) \left(1- {{n}\over{x}}\right) = {{x}\over{2}} + O(x^{1/4+\varepsilon }) (x \geqq 2).¶Unfortunately, this does not lead to an improved error term estimation for the unweighted sum ?_{n \leqq x} [(L)\tilde] (n)\sum \limits_{n \leqq x} \tilde {\Lambda} (n), which would be of importance for the distance between consecutive primes.     

Minimal rotational hypersurfaces in Minkowski (<Emphasis Type="Italic">α</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis>)-space

In Finsler geometry, minimal surfaces with respect to the Busemann-Hausdorff measure and the Holmes-Thompson measure are called BH-minimal and HT-minimal surfaces, respectively. In this paper, we give the explicit expressions of BH-minimal and HT-minimal rotational hypersurfaces generated by plane curves rotating around the axis in the direction of [(b)\tilde]^\sharp{\tilde{\beta}^{\sharp}} in Minkowski (α, β)-space (\mathbbVⁿ⁺¹,[(F_b)\tilde]){(\mathbb{V}^{n+1},\tilde{F_b})} , where \mathbbVⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb{V}^{n+1}} is an (n+1)-dimensional real vector space, [(F_b)\tilde]=[(a)\tilde]f([(b)\tilde]/[(a)\tilde]), [(a)\tilde]{\tilde{F_b}=\tilde{\alpha}\phi(\tilde{\beta}/\tilde{\alpha}), \tilde{\alpha}} is the Euclidean metric, [(b)\tilde]{\tilde{\beta}} is a one form of constant length b:=||[(b)\tilde]||_[(a)\tilde], [(b)\tilde]^\sharp{b:=\|\tilde{\beta}\|_{\tilde{\alpha}}, \tilde{\beta}^{\sharp}} is the dual vector of [(b)\tilde]{\tilde{\beta}} with respect to [(a)\tilde]{\tilde{\alpha}} . As an application, we first give the explicit expressions of the forward complete BH-minimal rotational surfaces generated around the axis in the direction of [(b)\tilde]^\sharp{\tilde{\beta}^{\sharp}} in Minkowski Randers 3-space (\mathbbV³,[(a)\tilde]+[(b)\tilde]){(\mathbb{V}^{3},\tilde{\alpha}+\tilde{\beta})} .     

The Ground State and the Long-Time Evolution in the CMC Einstein Flow

Let (g, K)(k) be a CMC (vacuum) Einstein flow over a compact three-manifold Σ with non-positive Yamabe invariant (Y(Σ)). As noted by Fischer and Moncrief, the reduced volume ${\mathcal{V}(k)=\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{3}{\rm Vol}_{g(k)}(\Sigma)}Let (g, K)(k) be a CMC (vacuum) Einstein flow over a compact three-manifold Σ with non-positive Yamabe invariant (Y(Σ)). As noted by Fischer and Moncrief, the reduced volume V(k)=(\frac-k3)³Vol_g(k)(S){\mathcal{V}(k)=\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{3}{\rm Vol}_{g(k)}(\Sigma)} is monotonically decreasing in the expanding direction and bounded below by V_inf=(\frac-16Y(S))^\frac32{\mathcal{V}_{\rm \inf}=\left(\frac{-1}{6}Y(\Sigma)\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}. Inspired by this fact we define the ground state of the manifold Σ as “the limit” of any sequence of CMC states {(g _i , K _i )} satisfying: (i) k _i  = −3, (ii) V_iˉ V_inf{\mathcal{V}_{i}\downarrow \mathcal{V}_{\rm inf}}, (iii) Q ₀((g _i , K _i )) ≤ Λ, where Q ₀ is the Bel–Robinson energy and Λ is any arbitrary positive constant. We prove that (as a geometric state) the ground state is equivalent to the Thurston geometrization of Σ. Ground states classify naturally into three types. We provide examples for each class, including a new ground state (the Double Cusp) that we analyze in detail. Finally, consider a long time and cosmologically normalized flow ([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])(s)=((\frac-k3)²g,(\frac-k3)K){(\tilde{g},\tilde{K})(\sigma)=\left(\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{2}g,\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)K\right)}, where s = -ln(-k) ? [a,￥){\sigma=-\ln (-k)\in [a,\infty)}. We prove that if [(E₁)\tilde]=E₁(([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])) ￡ L{\tilde{\mathcal{E}_{1}}=\mathcal{E}_{1}((\tilde{g},\tilde{K}))\leq \Lambda} (where E₁=Q₀+Q₁{\mathcal{E}_{1}=Q_{0}+Q_{1}}, is the sum of the zero and first order Bel–Robinson energies) the flow ([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])(s){(\tilde{g},\tilde{K})(\sigma)} persistently geometrizes the three-manifold Σ and the geometrization is the ground state if Vˉ V_inf{\mathcal{V}\downarrow \mathcal{V}_{\rm inf}}.     

Tight Lower Bounds for Halfspace Range Searching

We establish two new lower bounds for the halfspace range searching problem: Given a set of n points in ℝ ^d , where each point is associated with a weight from a commutative semigroup, compute the semigroup sum of the weights of the points lying within any query halfspace. Letting m denote the space requirements, we prove a lower bound for general semigroups of [\varOmega\tilde](n^1-1/(d+1)/m^1/(d+1))\widetilde{\varOmega}(n^{1-1/(d+1)}/m^{1/(d+1)}) and for integral semigroups of [\varOmega\tilde](n/m^1/d)\widetilde{\varOmega}(n/m^{1/d}).     

On the existence of a p-adic metaplectic Tate-type $\widetilde {\gamma}$-factor

Let \mathbbF\mathbb{F} be a p-adic field, let χ be a character of \mathbbF^*\mathbb{F}^{*}, let ψ be a character of \mathbbF\mathbb{F} and let g_y^-1\gamma_{\psi}^{-1} be the normalized Weil factor associated with a character of second degree. We prove here that one can define a meromorphic function [(g)\tilde](c,s,y)\widetilde{\gamma}(\chi ,s,\psi) via a similar functional equation to the one used for the definition of the Tate γ-factor replacing the role of the Fourier transform with an integration against y·g_y^-1\psi\cdot\gamma_{\psi}^{-1}. It turns out that γ and [(g)\tilde]\widetilde{\gamma} have similar integral representations. Furthermore, [(g)\tilde]\widetilde{\gamma} has a relation to Shahidi‘s metaplectic local coefficient which is similar to the relation γ has with (the non-metalpectic) Shahidi‘s local coefficient. Up to an exponential factor, [(g)\tilde](c,s,y)\widetilde{\gamma}(\chi,s,\psi) is equal to the ratio \fracg(c²,2s,y)g(c,s+\frac12,y)\frac{\gamma(\chi^{2},2s,\psi)}{\gamma(\chi,s+\frac{1}{2},\psi)}.     

Generalized time-dependent conditional linear models under left truncation and right censoring

Consider the model f(S(z|X)){\phi(S(z|X))} = \pmbb(z) [(X)\vec]{\pmb{\beta}(z) {\vec{X}}}, where f{\phi} is a known link function, S(·|X) is the survival function of a response Y given a covariate X, [(X)\vec]{\vec{X}} = (1, X, X ² , . . . , X ^p ) and \pmbb(z){\pmb{\beta}(z)} is an unknown vector of time-dependent regression coefficients. The response is subject to left truncation and right censoring. Under this model, which reduces for special choices of f{\phi} to e.g. Cox proportional hazards model or the additive hazards model with time dependent coefficients, we study the estimation of the vector \pmbb(z){\pmb{\beta}(z)} . A least squares approach is proposed and the asymptotic properties of the proposed estimator are established. The estimator is also compared with a competing maximum likelihood based estimator by means of simulations. Finally, the method is applied to a larynx cancer data set.     

Operator-semistable, operator semi-selfdecomposable probability measures and related nested classes on p-adic vector spaces

Let V be a finite dimensional p-adic vector space and let τ be an operator in GL(V). A probability measure μ on V is called τ-decomposable or m ? [(L)\tilde]₀(t)\mu\in {\tilde L}_0(\tau) if μ = τ(μ)* ρ for some probability measure ρ on V. Moreover, when τ is contracting, if ρ is infinitely divisible, so is μ, and if ρ is embeddable, so is μ. These two subclasses of [(L)\tilde]₀(t){\tilde L}_0(\tau) are denoted by L ₀(τ) and L ₀ ^#(τ) respectively. When μ is infinitely divisible τ-decomposable for a contracting τ and has no idempotent factors, then it is τ-semi-selfdecomposable or operator semi-selfdecomposable. In this paper, sequences of decreasing subclasses of the above mentioned three classes, [(L)\tilde]_m(t) é L_m(t) é L^#_m(t), 1 ￡ m ￡ ￥{\tilde L}_m(\tau)\supset L_m(\tau) \supset L^\#_m(\tau), 1\le m\le \infty , are introduced and several properties and characterizations are studied. The results obtained here are p-adic vector space versions of those given for probability measures on Euclidean spaces.

Some Poincaré-type inequalities for functions of bounded deformation involving the deviatoric part of the symmetric gradient

It is proved that if Ω ⊂ Rⁿ {R^n}  is a bounded Lipschitz domain, then the inequality || u ||₁ \leqslant c(n)\textdiam( W)ò_W | e^D(u) | {\left\| u \right\|_1} \leqslant c(n){\text{diam}}\left( \Omega \right)\int\limits_\Omega {\left| {{\varepsilon^D}(u)} \right|} is valid for functions of bounded deformation vanishing on ∂Ω. Here e^D(u) {\varepsilon^D}(u) denotes the deviatoric part of the symmetric gradient and ò_W | e^D(u) | \int\limits_\Omega {\left| {{\varepsilon^D}(u)} \right|} stands for the total variation of the tensor-valued measure e^D(u) {\varepsilon^D}(u) . Further results concern possible extensions of this Poincaré-type inequality. Bibliography: 27 titles.     

A Property of Isometric Mappings Between Dual Polar Spaces of Type {DQ (2n, {\mathbb K})}

Let f be an isometric embedding of the dual polar space ${\Delta = DQ(2n, {\mathbb K})}Let f be an isometric embedding of the dual polar space D = DQ(2n, \mathbb K){\Delta = DQ(2n, {\mathbb K})} into D￠ = DQ(2n, \mathbb K￠){\Delta^\prime = DQ(2n, {\mathbb K}^\prime)}. Let P denote the point-set of Δ and let e￠: D￠? S￠ @ PG(2ⁿ - 1, \mathbb K￠){e^\prime : \Delta^\prime \rightarrow {\Sigma^\prime} \cong {\rm PG}(2^n - 1, {{\mathbb K}^\prime})} denote the spin-embedding of Δ′. We show that for every locally singular hyperplane H of Δ, there exists a unique locally singular hyperplane H′ of Δ′ such that f(H) = f(P) ?H￠{f(H) = f(P) \cap H^\prime}. We use this to show that there exists a subgeometry S @ PG(2ⁿ - 1, \mathbb K){\Sigma \cong {\rm PG}(2^n - 1, {\mathbb K})} of Σ′ such that: (i) e￠°f (x) ? S{e^\prime \circ f (x) \in \Sigma} for every point x of D; (ii) e : = e￠°f{\Delta; ({\rm ii})\,e := e^\prime \circ f} defines a full embedding of Δ into Σ, which is isomorphic to the spin-embedding of Δ.     

Speed of Arnold diffusion for analytic Hamiltonian systems

For a convex, real analytic, ε-close to integrable Hamiltonian system with n≥5 degrees of freedom, we construct an orbit exhibiting Arnold diffusion with the diffusion time bounded by exp(Ce^{-\frac12(n-2)})\exp(C\epsilon^{-\frac{1}{2(n-2)}}). This upper bound of the diffusion time almost matches the lower bound of order exp(e^{-\frac12(n-1)})\exp(\epsilon ^{-\frac{1}{2(n-1)}}) predicted by the Nekhoroshev-type stability results. Our method is based on the variational approach of Bessi and Mather, and includes a new construction on the space of frequencies.     

Schlicht envelopes of holomorphy and topology

Let Ω be a domain in ${\mathbb{C}^{2}}Let Ω be a domain in \mathbbC²{\mathbb{C}^{2}}, and let p: [(W)\tilde]? \mathbbC²{\pi: \tilde{\Omega}\rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{2}} be its envelope of holomorphy. Also let W￠=p([(W)\tilde]){\Omega'=\pi(\tilde{\Omega})} with i: W\hookrightarrow W￠{i: \Omega \hookrightarrow \Omega'} the inclusion. We prove the following: if the induced map on fundamental groups i_*:p₁(W) ? p₁(W￠){i_{*}:\pi_{1}(\Omega) \rightarrow \pi_{1}(\Omega')} is a surjection, and if π is a covering map, then Ω has a schlicht envelope of holomorphy. We then relate this to earlier work of Fornaess and Zame.     

Gaussian upper bounds for fundamental solutions of a family of parabolic equations

We study the family of divergence-type second-order parabolic equations w_e(x)\frac?u?t=div(a(x)w_e(x) ?u), x ? \mathbbRⁿ{\omega_\varepsilon(x)\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}={\rm div}(a(x)\omega_\varepsilon(x) \nabla u), x \in \mathbb{R}^n} , with parameter ${\varepsilon >0 }${\varepsilon >0 } , where a(x) is uniformly elliptic matrix and w_e=1{\omega_\varepsilon=1} for x _n  < 0 and w_e=e{\omega_\varepsilon=\varepsilon} for x _n  > 0. We show that the fundamental solution obeys the Gaussian upper bound uniformly with respect to e{\varepsilon} .     

On wave equations with supercritical nonlinearities

We prove that the solution operators e_t (f, y){\cal e}_t (\phi , \psi ) for the nonlinear wave equations with supercritical nonlinearities are not Lipschitz mappings from a subset of the finite-energy space ([(H)\dot]¹ ?L_r+1) ×L₂(\dot {H}^1 \cap L_{\rho +1}) \times L_2 to [(H)\dot]^s_q￠\dot {H}^s_{q'} for t 1 0t\neq 0, and 0 ￡ s ￡ 1,0\leq s\leq 1, (n+1)/(1/2-1/q￠) = 1(n+1)/(1/2-1/q')= 1. This is in contrast to the subcritical case, where the corresponding operators are Lipschitz mappings ([3], [6]). Here e_t(f, y)=u(·, t){\cal e}_t(\phi , \psi )=u(\cdot , t), where u is a solution of {

On quasiorder lattices and topology lattices of algebras

In this paper, it is shown that the dual [(\textQord)\tilde]\mathfrakA \widetilde{\text{Qord}}\mathfrak{A} of the quasiorder lattice of any algebra \mathfrakA \mathfrak{A} is isomorphic to a sublattice of the topology lattice á( \mathfrakA ) \Im \left( \mathfrak{A} \right) . Further, if \mathfrakA \mathfrak{A} is a finite algebra, then [(\textQord)\tilde]\mathfrakA @ á( \mathfrakA ) \widetilde{\text{Qord}}\mathfrak{A} \cong \Im \left( \mathfrak{A} \right) . We give a sufficient condition for the lattices [(\textCon)\tilde]\mathfrakA\text, [(\textQord)\tilde]\mathfrakA \widetilde{\text{Con}}\mathfrak{A}{\text{,}} \widetilde{\text{Qord}}\mathfrak{A} , and á( \mathfrakA ) \Im \left( \mathfrak{A} \right) . to be pairwise isomorphic. These results are applied to investigate topology lattices and quasiorder lattices of unary algebras.     

A polynomial path-following interior point algorithm for general linear complementarity problems

Linear Complementarity Problems (LCPs) belong to the class of \mathbbNP{\mathbb{NP}} -complete problems. Therefore we cannot expect a polynomial time solution method for LCPs without requiring some special property of the coefficient matrix. Our aim is to construct interior point algorithms which, according to the duality theorem in EP (Existentially Polynomial-time) form, in polynomial time either give a solution of the original problem or detects the lack of property P_*([(k)\tilde]){\mathcal{P}_*(\tilde\kappa)} , with arbitrary large, but apriori fixed [(k)\tilde]{\tilde\kappa}). In the latter case, the algorithms give a polynomial size certificate depending on parameter [(k)\tilde]{\tilde{\kappa}} , the initial interior point and the input size of the LCP). We give the general idea of an EP-modification of interior point algorithms and adapt this modification to long-step path-following interior point algorithms.     

Toeplitz Operators on Generalized Bergman Spaces

We consider the weighted Bergman spaces HL²(\mathbb B^d, m_l){\mathcal {H}L^{2}(\mathbb {B}^{d}, \mu_{\lambda})}, where we set dm_l(z) = c_l(1-|z|²)^l dt(z){d\mu_{\lambda}(z) = c_{\lambda}(1-|z|^2)^{\lambda} d\tau(z)}, with τ being the hyperbolic volume measure. These spaces are nonzero if and only if λ > d. For 0 < λ ≤ d, spaces with the same formula for the reproducing kernel can be defined using a Sobolev-type norm. We define Toeplitz operators on these generalized Bergman spaces and investigate their properties. Specifically, we describe classes of symbols for which the corresponding Toeplitz operators can be defined as bounded operators or as a Hilbert–Schmidt operators on the generalized Bergman spaces.     

Singularly perturbed 1D Cahn–Hilliard equation revisited

We construct a family of exponential attractors ${\{{\mathcal M}_\epsilon\}, \epsilon\geq 0}We consider a singular perturbation of the one-dimensional Cahn–Hilliard equation subject to periodic boundary conditions. We construct a family of exponential attractors {M_e}, e 3 0{\{{\mathcal M}_\epsilon\}, \epsilon\geq 0} being the perturbation parameter, such that the map e? M_e{\epsilon \mapsto {\mathcal M}_\epsilon} is H?lder continuous. Besides, the continuity at e = 0{\epsilon=0} is obtained with respect to a metric independent of e.{\epsilon.} Continuity properties of global attractors and inertial manifolds are also examined.
