Pushing the envelope of the test functions in the Szegö and Avram–Parter theorems

The Szegö and Avram–Parter theorems give the limit of the arithmetic mean of the values of certain test functions at the eigenvalues of Hermitian Toeplitz matrices and the singular values of arbitrary Toeplitz matrices, respectively, as the matrix dimension goes to infinity. The question on whether these theorems are true whenever they make sense is essentially the question on whether they are valid for all continuous, nonnegative, and monotonously increasing test functions. We show that, surprisingly, the answer to this question is negative. On the other hand, we prove the two theorems in a general form which includes all versions known so far.

On lengths of filling closed geodesics of hyperbolic punctured Riemann spheres

Let S be a Riemann sphere with n ≥ 4 points deleted. In this article we investigate certain filling closed geodesics of S and give quantitative common lower bounds for the hyperbolic lengths of those geodesics with respect to any hyperbolic structure on S (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Existence of T-solution for degenerated problem via Minty’s lemma

We study the existence result of solutions for the nonlinear degenerated elliptic problem of the form, -div（a（x, u,△↓u）） = F in Ω, where Ω is a bounded domain of R^N, N≥2, a ：Ω×R×R^N→R^N is a Carathéodory function satisfying the natural growth condition and the coercivity condition, but they verify only the large monotonicity. The second term F belongs to W^-1,p′（Ω, w^＊）. The existence result is proved by using the L^1-version of Minty＇s lemma.

Matrix and vector models in the strong coupling limit

We consider matrix and vector models in the large-N limit: we study N × N matrices and vectors with N² components. In the case of a zero-dimensional model (D = 0), we prove that in the strong coupling limit (g → ∞), the partition functions of the two models coincide up to a coefficient. This also holds for D = 1. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 155, No. 2, pp. 236–243, May, 2008.

Estimating the covariance matrix and the generalized variance under a symmetric loss

For estimating the power of a generalized variance under a multivariate normal distribution with unknown means, the inadmissibility of the best affine equivariant estimator relative to the symmetric loss is shown, and a class of improved estimators is given. The problem of estimating the covariance matrix is also discussed.
