Special John-Nirenberg-Campanato spaces via congruent cubes

Let p ∈ [1, ∞), q ∈ [1, ∞), α∈ R, and s be a non-negative integer. Inspired by the space JNp introduced by John and Nirenberg(1961) and the space B introduced by Bourgain et al.(2015), we introduce a special John-Nirenberg-Campanato space JN^con_(p,q,s) over Rⁿ or a given cube of R;with finite side length via congruent subcubes, which are of some amalgam features. The limit space of such spaces as p →∞ is just the Campanato space which coincides with the space BMO(the space of functions with bounded mean oscillations)when α = 0. Moreover, a vanishing subspace of this new space is introduced, and its equivalent characterization is established as well, which is a counterpart of the known characterization for the classical space VMO(the space of functions with vanishing mean oscillations) over Rⁿ or a given cube of Rⁿ with finite side length.Furthermore, some VMO-H¹-BMO-type results for this new space are also obtained, which are based on the aforementioned vanishing subspaces and the Hardy-type space defined via congruent cubes in this article. The geometrical properties of both the Euclidean space via its dyadic system and congruent cubes play a key role in the proofs of all these results.     

Extension of Laguerre polynomials with negative arguments

We consider the irreducibility of polynomial $L_n^{\left(\alpha \right)}\left(x\right)$ where $\alpha$ is a negative integer. We observe that the constant term of $L_n^{\left(\alpha \right)}\left(x\right)$ vanishes if and only if $n\ge \left|\alpha \right|=?\alpha$. Therefore we assume that $\alpha =?n?s?1$ where $s$ is a non-negative integer. Let $g\left(x\right)={(?1)}^n{L}_n^{(?n?s?1)}\left(x\right)=\sum _{j=0}^n{a}_j\frac{x^j}{j!}$ and more general polynomial, let $G\left(x\right)=\sum _{j=0}^n{a}_j{b}_j\frac{x^j}{j!}$ where $b_j$ with $0\le j\le n$ are integers such that $\left|b_0\right|=\left|b_n\right|=1$. Schur was the first to prove the irreducibility of $g\left(x\right)$ for $s=0$. It has been proved that $g\left(x\right)$ is irreducible for $0\le s\le 60$. In this paper, by a different method, we prove: Apart from finitely many explicitly given possibilities, either $G\left(x\right)$ is irreducible or $G\left(x\right)$ is linear factor times irreducible polynomial. This is a consequence of the estimate $s>1.9k$ whenever $G\left(x\right)$ has a factor of degree $k\ge 2$ and $(n,k,s)\ne (10,5,4)$. This sharpens earlier estimates of Shorey and Tijdeman and Nair and Shorey.     

Concentrated steady vorticities of the Euler equation on 2-d domains and their linear stability

We consider concentrated vorticities for the Euler equation on a smooth domain $\mathrm{\Omega }?{\mathbf{R}}^2$ in the form of

$\omega =\sum _{j=1}^N{\omega }_j{\chi }_{{\mathrm{\Omega }}_j},|{\mathrm{\Omega }}_j|=\pi r_j^2,\underset{{\mathrm{\Omega }}_j}{\int }{\omega }_{j}d\mu ={\mu }_j\ne 0,$

supported on well-separated vortical domains ${\mathrm{\Omega }}_j$, $j=1,\dots ,N$, of small diameters $O(r_j)$. A conformal mapping framework is set up to study this free boundary problem with ${\mathrm{\Omega }}_j$ being part of unknowns. For any given vorticities ${\mu }_1,\dots ,{\mu }_N$ and small $r_1,\dots ,r_N\in {\mathbf{R}}^{+}$, through a perturbation approach, we obtain such piecewise constant steady vortex patches as well as piecewise smooth Lipschitz steady vorticities, both concentrated near non-degenerate critical configurations of the Kirchhoff–Routh Hamiltonian function. When vortex patch evolution is considered as the boundary dynamics of $?{\mathrm{\Omega }}_j$, through an invariant subspace decomposition, it is also proved that the spectral/linear stability of such steady vortex patches is largely determined by that of the 2N-dimensional linearized point vortex dynamics, while the motion is highly oscillatory in the 2N-codim directions corresponding to the vortical domain shapes.
