A note on Besov regularity of layer potentials and solutions of elliptic PDE's

Let be a second order, (variable coefficient) elliptic differential operator and let , , 0$">, satisfy in the Lipschitz domain . We show that can exhibit more regularity on Besov scales for which smoothness is measured in with . Similar results are valid for functions representable in terms of layer potentials.

     

The first coordination compound containing three different types of spin carriers: 2p-3d-4f (TCNQ.-, Cu2+ and Gd3+)

A novel heterospin system, [(CuL)2Gd(TCNQ)2].TCNQ-.CH3OH.2CH3CN, is obtained by reacting the mononuclear complex, [CuL], with gadolinium(III) nitrate, followed by the substitution of the nitrato ions with anionic organic radicals.     

Using conjoined rigid body/torsion angle simulated annealing to determine the relative orientation of covalently linked protein domains from dipolar couplings

A simple and robust method for determining the relative orientations of covalently linked protein domains using conjoined rigid body/torsion angle dynamics simulated annealing on the basis of residual dipolar couplings is presented. In this approach each domain is treated as a rigid body and the relevant degrees of conformational freedom are restricted to the backbone torsion angles (phi, psi) of the linker between the domains. By this means translational information afforded by the presence of an intact linker is preserved. We illustrate this approach using the domain-swapped dimer of the HIV-inactivating protein cyanovirin-N as an example.     

Convergence of Appell Polynomials of Long Range Dependent Moving Averages in Martingale Differences

We study limit distribution of partial sums S_N,k(t) = _{s = 1} ^{[N t]} A_k(X_s) of Appell polynomials of the long-range dependent moving average process X_t> = _{i t} b_{t - i i}, where {_i} is a strictly stationary and weakly dependent martingale difference sequence, and b_i i^{d - 1} (0 < d < 1/2). We show that if k(1-2 d)<1, then suitably normalized partial sums S_N,k(t) converge in distribution to the kth order Hermite process. This result generalizes the corresponding results of Surgailis, and Avram and Taqqu obtained in the case of the i.i.d. sequence { _i}.     

Cyclic Cohomology of étale Groupoids: The General Case

We give a general method for computing the cyclic cohomology of crossed products by étale groupoids, extending the Feigin–Tsygan–Nistor spectral sequences. In particular we extend the computations performed by Brylinski, Burghelea, Connes, Feigin, Karoubi, Nistor, and Tsygan for the convolution algebra C _c (G) of an étale groupoid, removing the Hausdorffness condition and including the computation of hyperbolic components. Examples like group actions on manifolds and foliations are considered.     

The Stationary Navier-Stokes System in Nonsmooth Manifolds: The Poisson Problem in Lipschitz and <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> Domains

We consider the linearized version of the stationary Navier-Stokes equations on a subdomain of a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold M. The emphasis is on regularity: the boundary of is assumed to be only C¹ and even Lipschitz, and the data are selected from appropriate Sobolev-Besov scales. Our approach relies on the method of boundary integral equations, suitably adapted to the variable-coefficient setting we are considering here. Applications to the stationary, nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations in this context are also discussed.     

Transmission problems and spectral theory for singular integral operators on Lipschitz domains

We prove the well-posedness of the transmission problem for the Laplacian across a Lipschitz interface, with optimal non-tangential maximal function estimates, for data in Lebesgue and Hardy spaces on the boundary. As a corollary, we show that the spectral radius of the (adjoint) harmonic double layer potential K∗ in is less than , whenever is a bounded convex domain and 1<p?2.
