On superpositions of continuous functions defined on the baire space

For continuous functions specified on the Baire space, conditions for the representability of a function of several variables as a superposition of functions of a smaller number of variables are considered. With the use of linear functions of the form (1+α)t, a boundary value of the modulus of continuity separating the positive from the negative solution of the problem is found. For the case in which the problem has a negative solution, a constructive method for obtaining (n+1)-variable continuous functions with modulus of continuity ϕ(t) that are not representable as superposition ofn-variable continuous functions with the same modulus of continuity ϕ(t) is suggested.

On the boundary value problem in a dihedral angle for normally hyperbolic systems of first order

Some structural properties as well as a general three-dimensional boundary value problem for normally hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations of first order are studied. A condition is given which enables one to reduce the system under consideration to a first-order system with the spliced principal part. It is shown that the initial problem is correct in a certain class of functions if some conditions are fulfilled.     

Non-monotonic iterative roots extended from characteristic intervals

It has been treated as a difficult problem to find iterative roots of non-monotonic functions. For some PM functions which do not increase the number of forts under iteration a method was given to obtain a non-monotonic iterative root by extending a monotone iterative root from the characteristic interval. In this paper we prove that every continuous iterative root is an extension from the characteristic interval and give various modes of extension for those iterative roots of PM functions.     

Override and update

Override and update are natural constructions for combining partial functions, which arise in various program specification contexts. We use an unexpected connection with combinatorial geometry to provide a complete finite system of equational axioms for the first order theory of the override and update constructions on partial functions, resolving the main unsolved problem in the area.

Traces of Sobolev functions on the Ahlfors sets of Carnot groups

We prove the converse of the trace theorem for the functions of the Sobolev spaces W _p ^l on a Carnot group on the regular closed subsets called Ahlfors d-sets (the direct trace theorem was obtained in one of our previous publications). The theorem generalizes Johnsson and Wallin’s results for Sobolev functions on the Euclidean space. As a consequence we give a theorem on the boundary values of Sobolev functions on a domain with smooth boundary in a two-step Carnot group. We consider an example of application of the theorems to solvability of the boundary value problem for one partial differential equation.     

On Oscillation of Functions with Bounded Spectral Band

In this paper, we consider extremal oscillatory properties of functions with bounded spectrum, i.e., with bounded support (in the sense of distributions) of the Fourier transform. For such functions f, we give criteria of extendability of }f} from the real axis to a function F on the complex plane with derivatives F ^(m) having no real zeros and without enlarging the width of spectrum. In particular, we give examples of functions $f$ from the real Paley–Wiener space such that every function f ^(m), m=0, 1,..., has a finite number of real zeros.     

Extension of functions preserving the modulus of continuity

The problem of the extension of a real-valued function from a subset of a metric space to the entire space is treated. An extension operator preserving the modulus of continuity of a function is proposed and its properties are studied. An application to the problem of the trace of a locally Lipschitz function on a compact subset of a metric space is given.

An extension of the method of quasilinearization

In this paper, the question of whether it is possible to develop monotone sequences that converge to the solution quadratically, when the function involved in the initial-value problem admits a decomposition into a difference of two convex functions, is answered positively. This extends the method of quasilinearization to a larger class.     

A New defy for iteration methods

The work presents an adaptation of iteration method for solving a class of thirst order partial nonlinear differential equation with mixed derivatives.The class of partial differential equations present here is not solvable with neither the method of Green function, the most usual iteration methods for instance variational iteration method, homotopy perturbation method and Adomian decomposition method, nor integral transform for instance Laplace,Sumudu, Fourier and Mellin transform. We presented the stability and convergence of the used method for solving this class of nonlinear chaotic equations.Using the proposed method, we obtained exact solutions to this kind of equations.     

The diffraction in a class of unbounded domains connected through a hole

In this paper, the unique solvability, Fredholm property, and the principle of limiting absorption are proved for a boundary value problem for the system of Maxwell's equations in a semi‐infinite rectangular cylinder coupled with a layer by an aperture of arbitrary shape. Conditions at infinity are taken in the form of the Sveshnikov–Werner partial radiation conditions. The method of solution employs Green's functions of the partial domains and reduction to vector pseudodifferential equations considered in appropriate vectorial Sobolev spaces. Singularities of Green's functions are separated both in the domain and on its boundary. The smoothness of solutions is established. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Extensions of positive definite functions on free groups

An analogue of Krein's extension theorem is proved for operator-valued positive definite functions on free groups. The proof gives also the parametrization of all extensions by means of a generalized type of Szegö parameters. One singles out a distinguished completion, called central, which is related to quasi-multiplicative positive definite functions. An application is given to factorization of noncommutative polynomials.     

Expansion in eigenfunctions of the Sturm-Liouville problem on a bundle graph

In this paper we consider the applicability of the Fourier method for partial differential equations on spatial grids (we choose a bundle graph as a model). This leads to an important problem, namely, to the expansion of a given function in eigenfunctions of the corresponding Sturm-Liouville problem on a grid. We study a model problem which describes a symmetric case, when one considers physically identical one-dimensional continuums on the bundle graph. Such problems arise, for example, in the modeling of oscillating processes of an elastic mast with supporting elastic ties.     

Function Decompositions Related to the Luzin N-property

We introduce a class of continuous completely regular functions satisfying the N-property. We obtain a decomposition of an arbitrary continuous function into the sum of two functions the first of which is completely regular and the second does not enjoy the N-property. We define a class of strongly regular Borel functions for which we prove the Luzin N-property. We demonstrate that the image of every Lebesgue measurable set of a strongly regular function is measurable. From an arbitrary Borel function we extract a strongly regular function and a function that does not enjoy the N-property.

On the Cauchy problem for a class of iterated Fuchsian partial differential equations

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem with ramified data for a class of iterated Fuchsian partial differential equations. We give an explicit representation of the solution in terms of Gauss hypergeometric functions. Our results are illustrated through some examples.     

Determination of a control parameter in a one-dimensional parabolic equation using the method of radial basis functions

In this work, the method of radial basis functions is used for finding the solution of an inverse problem with source control parameter. Because a much wider range of physical phenomena are modelled by nonclassical parabolic initial-boundary value problems, theoretical behavior and numerical approximation of these problems have been active areas of research. The radial basis functions (RBF) method is an efficient mesh free technique for the numerical solution of partial differential equations. The main advantage of numerical methods which use radial basis functions over traditional techniques is the meshless property of these methods. In a meshless method, a set of scattered nodes are used instead of meshing the domain of the problem. The results of numerical experiments are presented and some comparisons are made with several well-known finite difference schemes.     

Functions on Linear Spaces Associated with Finite Projective Planes

Using spread sets that define finite translation planes, we construct functions that map a finite linear space into itself. Properties of such functions, which are of interest from the standpoint of cryptography, are examined. We look into the relationship between these functions and corresponding translation planes.     

Sum of graphs of continuous functions and boundedness of additive operators

Assume that and are uniformly continuous functions, where D₁,D₂⊂X are nonempty open and arc-connected subsets of a real normed space X. We prove that then either f and g are affine functions, that is f(x)=x^∗(x)+a and g(x)=x^∗(x)+b with some x^∗∈X^∗ and a,b∈R or the algebraic sum of graphs of functions f and g has a nonempty interior in a product space X×R treated as a normed space with a norm .
