Maximal, potential and singular operators in vanishing generalized Morrey spaces

We introduce vanishing generalized Morrey spaces ${V\mathcal{L}^{p,\varphi}_\Pi (\Omega), \Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n}$ with a general function ${\varphi(x, r)}$ defining the Morrey-type norm. Here ${\Pi \subseteq \Omega}$ is an arbitrary subset in Ω including the extremal cases ${\Pi = \{x_0\}, x_0 \in \Omega}$ and Π = Ω, which allows to unify vanishing local and global Morrey spaces. In the spaces ${V\mathcal{L}^{p,\varphi}_\Pi (\mathbb{R}^n)}$ we prove the boundedness of a class of sublinear singular operators, which includes Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator and Calderon-Zygmund singular operators with standard kernel. We also prove a Sobolev-Spanne type ${V\mathcal{L}^{p,\varphi}_\Pi (\mathbb{R}^n) \rightarrow V\mathcal{L}^{q,\varphi^\frac{q}{p}}_\Pi (\mathbb{R}^n)}$ -theorem for the potential operator I ^α . The conditions for the boundedness are given in terms of Zygmund-type integral inequalities on ${\varphi(x, r)}$ . No monotonicity type condition is imposed on ${\varphi(x, r)}$ . In case ${\varphi}$ has quasi- monotone properties, as a consequence of the main results, the conditions of the boundedness are also given in terms of the Matuszeska-Orlicz indices of the function ${\varphi}$ . The proofs are based on pointwise estimates of the modulars defining the vanishing spaces     

Stability of contact discontinuity for steady Euler system in infinite duct

In this paper, we prove stability of contact discontinuities for full Euler system. We fix a flat duct ${\mathcal{N}_0}$ of infinite length in ${\mathbb{R}^2}$ with width W ₀ and consider two uniform subsonic flow ${{U_l}^{\pm}=(u_l^{\pm}, 0, pl,\rho_l^{\pm})}$ with different horizontal velocity in ${\mathcal{N}_0}$ divided by a flat contact discontinuity ${\Gamma_{cd}}$ . And, we slightly perturb the boundary of ${\mathcal{N}_0}$ so that the width of the perturbed duct converges to ${W_0+\omega}$ for ${|\omega| < \delta}$ at ${x=\infty}$ for some ${\delta >0 }$ . Then, we prove that if the asymptotic state at left far field is given by ${{U_l}^{\pm}}$ , and if the perturbation of boundary of ${\mathcal{N}_0}$ and ${\delta}$ is sufficiently small, then there exists unique asymptotic state ${{U_r}^{\pm}}$ with a flat contact discontinuity ${\Gamma_{cd}^*}$ at right far field( ${x=\infty}$ ) and unique weak solution ${U}$ of the Euler system so that U consists of two subsonic flow with a contact discontinuity in between, and that U converges to ${{U_l}^{\pm}}$ and ${{U_r}^{\pm}}$ at ${x=-\infty}$ and ${x=\infty}$ respectively. For that purpose, we establish piecewise C ¹ estimate across a contact discontinuity of a weak solution to Euler system depending on the perturbation of ${\partial\mathcal{N}_0}$ and ${\delta}$ .     

Scaling relationship between the copositive cone and Parrilo’s first level approximation

We investigate the relation between the cone ${\mathcal{C}^{n}}$ of n × n copositive matrices and the approximating cone ${\mathcal{K}_{n}^{1}}$ introduced by Parrilo. While these cones are known to be equal for n ≤ 4, we show that for n ≥ 5 they are not equal. This result is based on the fact that ${\mathcal{K}_{n}^{1}}$ is not invariant under diagonal scaling. We show that for any copositive matrix which is not the sum of a nonnegative and a positive semidefinite matrix we can find a scaling which is not in ${\mathcal{K}_{n}^{1}}$ . In fact, we show that if all scaled versions of a matrix are contained in ${\mathcal{K}_{n}^{r}}$ for some fixed r, then the matrix must be in ${\mathcal{K}_{n}^{0}}$ . For the 5 × 5 case, we show the more surprising result that we can scale any copositive matrix X into ${\mathcal{K}_{5}^{1}}$ and in fact that any scaling D such that ${(DXD)_{ii} \in \{0,1\}}$ for all i yields ${DXD \in \mathcal{K}_{5}^{1}}$ . From this we are able to use the cone ${\mathcal{K}_{5}^{1}}$ to check if any order 5 matrix is copositive. Another consequence of this is a complete characterisation of ${\mathcal{C}^{5}}$ in terms of ${\mathcal{K}_{5}^{1}}$ . We end the paper by formulating several conjectures.     

Donsker-type theorems for nonparametric maximum likelihood estimators

Let ${\mathcal{P}}$ be a nonparametric probability model consisting of smooth probability densities and let ${\hat{p}_{n}}$ be the corresponding maximum likelihood estimator based on n independent observations each distributed according to the law ${\mathbb{P}}$ . With $\hat{\mathbb{P}}_{n}$ denoting the measure induced by the density ${\hat{p}_{n}}$ , define the stochastic process ${\hat{\nu}}_{n}: f\longmapsto \sqrt{n} \int fd({\hat{\mathbb{P}}}_{n} -\mathbb{P})$ where f ranges over some function class ${\mathcal{F}}$ . We give a general condition for Donsker classes ${\mathcal{F}}$ implying that the stochastic process $\hat{\nu}_{n}$ is asymptotically equivalent to the empirical process in the space ${\ell ^{\infty }(\mathcal{F})}$ of bounded functions on ${ \mathcal{F}}$ . This implies in particular that $\hat{\nu}_{n}$ converges in law in ${\ell ^{\infty }(\mathcal{F})}$ to a mean zero Gaussian process. We verify the general condition for a large family of Donsker classes ${\mathcal{ F}}$ . We give a number of applications: convergence of the probability measure ${\hat{\mathbb{P}}_{n}}$ to ${\mathbb{P}}$ at rate ${\sqrt{n}}$ in certain metrics metrizing the topology of weak(-star) convergence; a unified treatment of convergence rates of the MLE in a continuous scale of Sobolev-norms; ${\sqrt{n}}$ -efficient estimation of nonlinear functionals defined on ${\mathcal{P}}$ ; limit theorems at rate ${\sqrt{n}}$ for the maximum likelihood estimator of the convolution product ${\mathbb{P\ast P}}$ .     

Linear recurring sequences and subfield subcodes of cyclic codes

Linear recurring sequences over finite fields play an important role in coding theory and cryptography. It is known that subfield subcodes of linear codes yield some good codes. In this paper, we study linear recurring sequences and subfield subcodes. Let Mqm(f(x)) denote the set of all linear recurring sequences over Fqm with characteristic polynomial f(x) over Fqm . Denote the restriction of Mqm(f(x)) to sequences over Fq and the set after applying trace function to each sequence in Mqm(f(x)) by Mqm(f(x)) | Fq and Tr( Mqm(f(x))), respectively. It is shown that these two sets are both complete sets of linear recurring sequences over Fq with some characteristic polynomials over Fq. In this paper, we firstly determine the characteristic polynomials for these two sets. Then, using these results, we determine the generator polynomials of subfield subcodes and trace codes of cyclic codes over Fqm .     

Characterization of (generalized) Lie derivations on {\mathcal{J}}-subspace lattice algebras by local action

Let ${\mathcal{L}}$ be a ${\mathcal{J}}$ -subspace lattice on a Banach space X over the real or complex field ${\mathbb{F}}$ with dim X ≥ 2 and Alg ${\mathcal{L}}$ be the associated ${\mathcal{J}}$ -subspace lattice algebra. For any scalar ${\xi \in \mathbb{F}}$ , there is a characterization of any linear map L : Alg ${\mathcal{L} \rightarrow {\rm Alg} {\mathcal{L}}}$ satisfying ${L([A,B]_\xi) = [L(A),B]_\xi + [A,L(B)]_\xi}$ for any ${A, B \in{\rm Alg} {\mathcal{L}}}$ with AB = 0 (rep. ${[A,B]_ \xi = AB - \xi BA = 0}$ ) given. Based on these results, a complete characterization of (generalized) ξ-Lie derivations for all possible ξ on Alg ${\mathcal{L}}$ is obtained.     

The average size of Ramanujan sums over quadratic number fields

This article is concerned with Ramanujan sums ${c_{\mathcal{I}_1}(\mathcal{I}),}$ where ${\mathcal{I},\mathcal{I}_1}$ are integral ideals in an arbitrary quadratic number field ${\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d}).}$ In particular, the asymptotic behavior of sums of ${c_{\mathcal{I}_1}(\mathcal{I}),}$ over both ${\mathcal{I}}$ and ${c_{\mathcal{I}_1}(\mathcal{I}),}$ is investigated.     

Howe correspondence and Springer correspondence for real reductive dual pairs

We consider a real reductive dual pair (G′, G) of type I, with rank ${({\rm G}^{\prime}) \leq {\rm rank(G)}}$ . Given a nilpotent coadjoint orbit ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime} \subseteq \mathfrak{g}^{{\prime}{*}}}$ , let ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime}_\mathbb{C} \subseteq \mathfrak{g}^{{\prime}{*}}_\mathbb{C}}$ denote the complex orbit containing ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}$ . Under some condition on the partition λ′ parametrizing ${\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}$ , we prove that, if λ is the partition obtained from λ by adding a column on the very left, and ${\mathcal{O}}$ is the nilpotent coadjoint orbit parametrized by λ, then ${\mathcal{O}_\mathbb{C}= \tau (\tau^{\prime -1}(\mathcal{O}_\mathbb{C}^{\prime}))}$ , where ${\tau, \tau^{\prime}}$ are the moment maps. Moreover, if ${chc(\hat\mu_{\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}) \neq 0}$ , where chc is the infinitesimal version of the Cauchy-Harish-Chandra integral, then the Weyl group representation attached by Wallach to ${\mu_{\mathcal{O}^{\prime}}}$ with corresponds to ${\mathcal{O}_\mathbb{C}}$ via the Springer correspondence.     

Height of a Superposition

We observe that, given a poset ${\left( {E,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}} \right)}$ and a finite covering ${\user1{\mathcal{R}}} = {\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{1} \cup \cdots \cup {\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{n} $ of its ordering, the height of the poset does not exceed the natural product of the heights of the corresponding sub-relations: $$\mathfrak{h}{\left( {E,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}} \right)} \leqslant \mathfrak{h}{\left( {E,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{1} } \right)} \otimes \cdots \otimes \mathfrak{h}{\left( {E,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{n} } \right)}.$$ Conversely for every finite sequence $(\xi_1,\cdots,\xi_n)$ of ordinals, every poset ${\left( {E,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}} \right)}$ of height at most $\xi_1\otimes\cdots\otimes\xi_n$ admits a partition ${\left( {{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{1} , \cdots ,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{n} } \right)}$ of its ordering ${\user1{\mathcal{R}}}$ such that each ${\left( {E,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{k} } \right)}$ has height at most $\xi_k$ . In particular for every finite sequence $(\xi_1,\cdots,\xi_n)$ of ordinals, the ordinal $$\xi _{1} \underline{ \otimes } \cdots \underline{ \otimes } \xi _{n} : = \sup {\left\{ {{\left( {\xi ^{\prime }_{1} \otimes \cdots \otimes \xi ^{\prime }_{n} } \right)} + 1:\xi ^{\prime }_{1} < \xi _{1} , \cdots ,\xi ^{\prime }_{n} < \xi _{n} } \right\}}$$ is the least $\xi$ for which the following partition relation holds $$\mathfrak{H}_{\xi } \to {\left( {\mathfrak{H}_{{\xi _{1} }} , \cdots ,\mathfrak{H}_{{\xi _{n} }} } \right)}^{2} $$ meaning: for every poset ${\left( {A,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}} \right)}$ of height at least $\xi$ and every finite covering ${\left( {{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{1} , \cdots ,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{n} } \right)}$ of its ordering ${\user1{\mathcal{R}}}$ , there is a $k$ for which the relation ${\left( {A,{\user1{\mathcal{R}}}_{k} } \right)}$ has height at least $\xi_k$ . The proof will rely on analogue properties of vertex coverings w.r.t. the natural sum.     

Split Partial Isometries

A partial isometry V is said to be a split partial isometry if ${\mathcal{H}=R(V) + N(V)}$ , with R(V) ∩ N(V) = {0} (R(V) = range of V, N(V) = null-space of V). We study the topological properties of the set ${\mathcal{I}_0}$ of such partial isometries. Denote by ${\mathcal{I}}$ the set of all partial isometries of ${\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})}$ , and by ${\mathcal{I}_N}$ the set of normal partial isometries. Then $$\mathcal{I}_N\subset \mathcal{I}_0\subset \mathcal{I}, $$ and the inclusions are proper. It is known that ${\mathcal{I}}$ is a C ^∞-submanifold of ${\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})}$ . It is shown here that ${\mathcal{I}_0}$ is open in ${\mathcal{I}}$ , therefore is has also C ^∞-local structure. We characterize the set ${\mathcal{I}_0}$ , in terms of metric properties, existence of special pseudo-inverses, and a property of the spectrum and the resolvent of V. The connected components of ${\mathcal{I}_0}$ are characterized: ${V_0,V_1\in \mathcal{I}_0}$ lie in the same connected component if and only if $${\rm dim}\, R(V_0)= {\rm dim}\, R(V_1) \,\,{\rm and}\,\,\, {\rm dim}\, R(V_0)^\perp = {\rm dim}\, R(V_1)^\perp.$$ This result is known for normal partial isometries.     

Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for Associated Differential Operators in Quaternionic Analysis and Applications to Initial Value Problems

This paper deals with the initial value problem of type $$\begin{array}{ll} \qquad \frac{\partial u}{\partial t} = \mathcal{L} u := \sum \limits^3_{i=0} A^{(i)} (t, x) \frac{\partial u}{\partial x_{i}} + B(t, x)u + C(t, x)\\ u (0, x) = u_{0}(x)\end{array}$$ in the space of generalized regular functions in the sense of Quaternionic Analysis satisfying the differential equation $$\mathcal{D}_{\lambda}u := \mathcal{D} u + \lambda u = 0,$$ where ${t \in [0, T]}$ is the time variable, x runs in a bounded and simply connected domain in ${\mathbb{R}^{4}, \lambda}$ is a real number, and ${\mathcal{D}}$ is the Cauchy-Fueter operator. We prove necessary and sufficient conditions on the coefficients of the operator ${\mathcal{L}}$ under which ${\mathcal{L}}$ is associated with the operator ${\mathcal{D}_{\lambda}}$ , i.e. ${\mathcal{L}}$ transforms the set of all solutions of the differential equation ${\mathcal{D}_{\lambda}u = 0}$ into solutions of the same equation for fixedly chosen t. This criterion makes it possible to construct operators ${\mathcal{L}}$ for which the initial value problem is uniquely soluble for an arbitrary initial generalized regular function u ₀ by the method of associated spaces constructed by W. Tutschke (Teubner Leipzig and Springer Verlag, 1989) and the solution is also generalized regular for each t.     

Irregular and Singular Loci of Commuting Varieties

Let $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}} $ be the commuting variety of the Lie algebra $ \mathfrak{g} $ of a connected noncommutative reductive algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{sing}}}} $ be the singular locus of $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}} $ and let $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{irr}}}} $ be the locus of points whose G-stabilizers have dimension > rk G. We prove that: (a) $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{sing}}}} $ is a nonempty subset of $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{irr}}}} $ ; (b) $ {\text{codim}}_{{\user1{\mathcal{C}}}} \,{\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{irr}}}} = 5 - {\text{max}}\,l{\left( \mathfrak{a} \right)} $ where the maximum is taken over all simple ideals $ \mathfrak{a} $ of $ \mathfrak{g} $ and $ l{\left( \mathfrak{a} \right)} $ is the “lacety” of $ \mathfrak{a} $ ; and (c) if $ \mathfrak{t} $ is a Cartan subalgebra of $ \mathfrak{g} $ and $ \alpha \in \mathfrak{t}^{*} $ root of $ \mathfrak{g} $ with respect to $ \mathfrak{t} $ , then $ \overline{{G{\left( {{\text{Ker}}\,\alpha \times {\text{Ker }}\alpha } \right)}}} $ is an irreducible component of $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{irr}}}} $ of codimension 4 in $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}} $ . This yields the bound $ {\text{codim}}_{{\user1{\mathcal{C}}}} \,{\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{sing}}}} \geqslant 5 - {\text{max}}\,l{\left( \mathfrak{a} \right)} $ and, in particular, $ {\text{codim}}_{{\user1{\mathcal{C}}}} \,{\user1{\mathcal{C}}}^{{{\text{sing}}}} \geqslant 2 $ . The latter may be regarded as an evidence in favor of the known longstanding conjecture that $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}} $ is always normal. We also prove that the algebraic variety $ {\user1{\mathcal{C}}} $ is rational.     

Composition Operators on Spaces of Fractional Cauchy Transforms

For ?? > 0, the Banach space ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ is defined as the collection of functions f which can be represented as integral transforms of an appropriate kernel against a Borel measure defined on the unit circle T. Let ?? be an analytic self-map of the unit disc D. The map ?? induces a composition operator on ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ if ${C_{\Phi}(f) = f \circ \Phi \in \mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ for any function ${f \in \mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ . Various conditions on ?? are given, sufficient to imply that C _?? is bounded on ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ , in the case 0 < ?? < 1. Several of the conditions involve ???? and the theory of multipliers of the space ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ . Relations are found between the behavior of C _?? and the membership of ?? in the Dirichlet spaces. Conditions given in terms of the generalized Nevanlinna counting function are shown to imply that ?? induces a bounded composition operator on ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ , in the case 1/2 ?? ?? < 1. For such ??, examples are constructed such that ${\| \Phi \|_{\infty} = 1}$ and ${C_{\Phi}: \mathcal{F}_{\alpha} \rightarrow \mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ is bounded.     

Graded Antisimple Primitive Radical

We introduce the graded version of the antisimple primitive radical $ {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}} $ , the graded antisimple primitive radical $ {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}}_{G} $ . We show that $ {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}}_{G} = {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}}_{{{\text{ref}}}} = {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}}^{G} $ when |G| < ∞, where $ {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}}_{{{\text{ref}}}} $ denotes the reflected antisimple primitive radical and $ {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}}^{G} $ denotes the restricted antisimple primitive radical. Furthermore, we discuss the graded supplementing radical of $ {\user1{\mathcal{S}\mathcal{J}}}^{G} $ .     

Order Bounded Weighted Composition Operators Mapping into the Bergman Space

We will investigate the order boundedness of weighted composition operators ${uC_{\varphi}}$ from weighted Bergman spaces ${L_{a}^p(dA_{\alpha})}$ , weighted-type spaces ${H_{\alpha}^{\infty}}$ or Bloch-type spaces ${\mathcal{B}_{\alpha}}$ into the space ${L_{a}^q(dA_{\beta})}$ .     

Atomic intersection of σ-fields and some of its consequences

Let ${(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, P)}$ be a probability space. For each ${\mathcal{G}\subset\mathcal{F}}$ , define ${\overline{\mathcal{G}}}$ as the σ-field generated by ${\mathcal{G}}$ and those sets ${F\in \mathcal{F}}$ satisfying ${P(F)\in\{0,1\}}$ . Conditions for P to be atomic on ${\cap_{i=1}^k\overline{\mathcal{A}_i}}$ , with ${\mathcal{A }_1,\ldots,\mathcal{A}_k\subset\mathcal{F}}$ sub-σ-fields, are given. Conditions for P to be 0-1-valued on ${\cap_{i=1}^k \overline{\mathcal{A}_i}}$ are given as well. These conditions are useful in various fields, including Gibbs sampling, iterated conditional expectations and the intersection property.
