Planar Beurling Transform and Bergman Type Spaces

In this paper we describe the actions of the operator $S_\mathbb{D }$ or its adjoint $S_\mathbb{D }^*$ on the poly-Bergman spaces of the unit disk $\mathbb{D }.$ Let $k$ and $j$ be positive integers. We prove that $(S_\mathbb{D })^{j}$ is an isometric isomorphism between the true poly-Bergman subspace $\mathcal{A }_{(k)}^2(\mathbb{D })\ominus N_{(k),j}$ onto the true poly-Bergman space $\mathcal{A }_{(j+k)}^2(\mathbb{D }),$ where the linear space $N_{(k),j}$ have finite dimension $j.$ The action of $(S_\mathbb{D })^{j-1}$ on the canonical Hilbert base for the Bergman subspace $\mathcal{A }^2(\mathbb{D })\ominus \mathcal{P }_{j-1},$ gives a Hilbert base $\{ \phi _{ j , k } \}_{ k }$ for $\mathcal{A }_{(j)}^2(\mathbb{D }).$ It is shown that $\{ \phi _{ j , k } \}_{ j, k }$ is a Hilbert base for $L^2(\mathbb{D },d A)$ such that whenever $j$ and $k$ remain constant we obtain a Hilbert base for the true poly-Bergman space $\mathcal{A }_{(j)}^2(\mathbb{D })$ and $\mathcal{A }_{(-k)}^2(\mathbb{D }),$ respectively. The functions $\phi _{ j , k }$ are polynomials in $z$ and $\overline{z}$ and are explicitly given in terms of the $(2,1)$ -hypergeometric polynomials. We prove explicit representations for the true poly-Bergman kernels and the Koshelev representation for the poly-Bergman kernels of $\mathbb{D }.$ The action of $S_\Pi $ on the true poly-Bergman spaces of the upper half-plane $\Pi $ allows one to introduce Hilbert bases for the true poly-Bergman spaces, and to give explicit representations of the true poly-Bergman and poly-Bergman kernels.     

On the Generalized Feynman–Kac Transformation for?Nearly Symmetric Markov Processes

Suppose that X is a right process which is associated with a non-symmetric Dirichlet form $(\mathcal{E},D(\mathcal{E}))$ on L ²(E;m). For $u\in D(\mathcal{E})$ , we have Fukushima??s decomposition: $\tilde{u}(X_{t})-\tilde{u}(X_{0})=M^{u}_{t}+N^{u}_{t}$ . In this paper, we investigate the strong continuity of the generalized Feynman?CKac semigroup defined by $P^{u}_{t}f(x)=E_{x}[e^{N^{u}_{t}}f(X_{t})]$ . Let $Q^{u}(f,g)=\mathcal{E}(f,g)+\mathcal{E}(u,fg)$ for $f,g\in D(\mathcal{E})_{b}$ . Denote by J ₁ the dissymmetric part of the jumping measure J of $(\mathcal{E},D(\mathcal{E}))$ . Under the assumption that J ₁ is finite, we show that $(Q^{u},D(\mathcal{E})_{b})$ is lower semi-bounded if and only if there exists a constant ?? ₀??0 such that $\|P^{u}_{t}\|_{2}\leq e^{\alpha_{0}t}$ for every t>0. If one of these conditions holds, then $(P^{u}_{t})_{t\geq0}$ is strongly continuous on L ²(E;m). If X is equipped with a differential structure, then this result also holds without assuming that J ₁ is finite.     

A unified approach for minimizing composite norms

We propose a first-order augmented Lagrangian algorithm (FALC) to solve the composite norm minimization problem $$\begin{aligned} \begin{array}{ll} \min \limits _{X\in \mathbb{R }^{m\times n}}&\mu _1\Vert \sigma (\mathcal{F }(X)-G)\Vert _\alpha +\mu _2\Vert \mathcal{C }(X)-d\Vert _\beta ,\\ \text{ subject} \text{ to}&\mathcal{A }(X)-b\in \mathcal{Q }, \end{array} \end{aligned}$$ where $\sigma (X)$ denotes the vector of singular values of $X \in \mathbb{R }^{m\times n}$ , the matrix norm $\Vert \sigma (X)\Vert _{\alpha }$ denotes either the Frobenius, the nuclear, or the $\ell _2$ -operator norm of $X$ , the vector norm $\Vert .\Vert _{\beta }$ denotes either the $\ell _1$ -norm, $\ell _2$ -norm or the $\ell _{\infty }$ -norm; $\mathcal{Q }$ is a closed convex set and $\mathcal{A }(.)$ , $\mathcal{C }(.)$ , $\mathcal{F }(.)$ are linear operators from $\mathbb{R }^{m\times n}$ to vector spaces of appropriate dimensions. Basis pursuit, matrix completion, robust principal component pursuit (PCP), and stable PCP problems are all special cases of the composite norm minimization problem. Thus, FALC is able to solve all these problems in a unified manner. We show that any limit point of FALC iterate sequence is an optimal solution of the composite norm minimization problem. We also show that for all $\epsilon >0$ , the FALC iterates are $\epsilon $ -feasible and $\epsilon $ -optimal after $\mathcal{O }(\log (\epsilon ^{-1}))$ iterations, which require $\mathcal{O }(\epsilon ^{-1})$ constrained shrinkage operations and Euclidean projection onto the set $\mathcal{Q }$ . Surprisingly, on the problem sets we tested, FALC required only $\mathcal{O }(\log (\epsilon ^{-1}))$ constrained shrinkage, instead of the $\mathcal{O }(\epsilon ^{-1})$ worst case bound, to compute an $\epsilon $ -feasible and $\epsilon $ -optimal solution. To best of our knowledge, FALC is the first algorithm with a known complexity bound that solves the stable PCP problem.     

A zoo of diffeomorphism groups on \mathbb{R }^{n}

We consider the groups ${\mathrm{Diff }}_\mathcal{B }(\mathbb{R }^n)$ , ${\mathrm{Diff }}_{H^\infty }(\mathbb{R }^n)$ , and ${\mathrm{Diff }}_{\mathcal{S }}(\mathbb{R }^n)$ of smooth diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{R }^n$ which differ from the identity by a function which is in either $\mathcal{B }$ (bounded in all derivatives), $H^\infty = \bigcap _{k\ge 0}H^k$ , or $\mathcal{S }$ (rapidly decreasing). We show that all these groups are smooth regular Lie groups.     

AW*-algebras Which are Enveloping C*-algebras of JC-algebras

In the given article, enveloping C*-algebras of AJW-algebras are considered. Conditions are given, when the enveloping C*-algebra of an AJW-algebra is an AW*-algebra, and corresponding theorems are proved. In particular, we proved that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a real AW*-algebra, $\mathcal{A}_{sa}$ is the JC-algebra of all self-adjoint elements of $\mathcal{A}$ , $\mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ is an AW*-algebra and $\mathcal{A}\cap i\mathcal{A} = \{0\}$ then the enveloping C*-algebra $C^*(\mathcal{A}_{sa})$ of the JC-algebra $\mathcal{A}_{sa}$ is an AW*-algebra. Moreover, if $\mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ does not have nonzero direct summands of type I₂, then $C^*(\mathcal{A}_{sa})$ coincides with the algebra $\mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ , i.e. $C^*(\mathcal{A}_{sa})= \mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ .     

Cyclic symmetry of the scaled simplex

Let $\mathcal{Z}_{m}^{k}$ consist of the m ^k alcoves contained in the m-fold dilation of the fundamental alcove of the type A _k affine hyperplane arrangement. As the fundamental alcove has a cyclic symmetry of order k+1, so does $\mathcal{Z}_{m}^{k}$ . By bijectively exchanging the natural poset structure of $\mathcal{Z}_{m}^{k}$ for a natural cyclic action on a set of words, we prove that $(\mathcal{Z}_{m}^{k},\prod_{i=1}^{k} \frac{1-q^{m i}}{1-q^{i}},C_{k+1})$ exhibits the cyclic sieving phenomenon.     

True Poly-Bergman and Poly-Bergman Kernels for the Complement of a Closed Disk

Let $k$ and $j$ be positive integers. We prove that the action of the two-dimensional singular integral operators $(S_\Omega )^{j-1}$ and $(S_\Omega ^*)^{j-1}$ on a Hilbert base for the Bergman space $\mathcal{A }^2(\Omega )$ and anti-Bergman space $\mathcal{A }^2_{-1}(\Omega ),$ respectively, gives Hilbert bases $\{ \psi _{\pm j , k } \}_{ k }$ for the true poly-Bergman spaces $\mathcal{A }_{(\pm j)}^2(\Omega ),$ where $S_\Omega $ denotes the compression of the Beurling transform to the Lebesgue space $L^2(\Omega , dA).$ The functions $\psi _{\pm j,k}$ will be explicitly represented in terms of the $(2,1)$ -hypergeometric polynomials as well as by formulas of Rodrigues type. We prove explicit representations for the true poly-Bergman kernels and more transparent representations for the poly-Bergman kernels of $\Omega $ . We establish Rodrigues type formulas for the poly-Bergman kernels of $\mathbb{D }$ .     

Ranks of backward shift invariant subspaces of the Hardy space over the bidisk

Let $\{\varphi _n(z)\}_{n\ge 0}$ be a sequence of inner functions satisfying that $\zeta _n(z):=\varphi _n(z)/\varphi _{n+1}(z)\in H^\infty (z)$ for every $n\ge 0$ and $\{\varphi _n(z)\}_{n\ge 0}$ has no nonconstant common inner divisors. Associated with it, we have a Rudin type invariant subspace $\mathcal{M }$ of $H^2(\mathbb{D }^2)$ . The ranks of $\mathcal{M }\ominus w\mathcal{M }$ for $\mathcal{F }_z$ and $\mathcal{F }^*_z$ respectively are determined, where $\mathcal{F }_z$ is the fringe operator on $\mathcal{M }\ominus w\mathcal{M }$ . Let $\mathcal{N }= H^2(\mathbb{D }^2)\ominus \mathcal{M }$ . It is also proved that the rank of $\mathcal{M }\ominus w\mathcal{M }$ for $\mathcal{F }^*_z$ equals to the rank of $\mathcal{N }$ for $T^*_z$ and $T^*_w$ .     

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.     

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 ${\mathbb{P\ast P}}$ .     

The Generalization of the Decomposition of Functions by Energy Operators

This work starts with the introduction of a family of differential energy operators. Energy operators $({\varPsi}_{R}^{+}, {\varPsi}_{R}^{-})$ were defined together with a method to decompose the wave equation in a previous work. Here the energy operators are defined following the order of their derivatives $(\varPsi^{-}_{k}, \varPsi^{+}_{k}, k=\{0,\pm 1,\pm 2,\ldots\})$ . The main part of the work demonstrates for any smooth real-valued function f in the Schwartz space $(\mathbf{S}^{-}(\mathbb{R}))$ , the successive derivatives of the n-th power of f ( $n \in \mathbb{Z}$ and n≠0) can be decomposed using only $\varPsi^{+}_{k}$ (Lemma); or if f in a subset of $\mathbf{S}^{-}(\mathbb{R})$ , called $\mathbf{s}^{-}(\mathbb{R})$ , $\varPsi^{+}_{k}$ and $\varPsi^{-}_{k}$ ( $k\in \mathbb{Z}$ ) decompose in a unique way the successive derivatives of the n-th power of f (Theorem). Some properties of the Kernel and the Image of the energy operators are given along with the development. Finally, the paper ends with the application to the energy function.     

On the pullback of an arithmetic theta function

In this paper, we describe a relationship between the simplest examples of arithmetic theta series. The first of these are the weight 1 theta series ${\widehat{\phi}_{\mathcal C}(\tau)}$ defined using arithmetic 0-cycles on the moduli space ${\mathcal C}$ of elliptic curves with CM by the ring of integers ${O_{\kappa}}$ of an imaginary quadratic field. The second such series ${\widehat{\phi}_{\mathcal M}(\tau)}$ has weight 3/2 and takes values in the arithmetic Chow group ${\widehat{{\rm CH}}^1(\mathcal{M})}$ of the arithmetic surface associated to an indefinite quaternion algebra ${B/\mathbb{Q}}$ . For an embedding ${O_\kappa \rightarrow O_B}$ , a maximal order in B, and a two sided O _B -ideal Λ, there is a morphism ${j_\Lambda:{\mathcal C} \rightarrow {\mathcal M}}$ and a pullback ${j_\Lambda^*: \widehat{{\rm CH}}^1(\mathcal{M}) \rightarrow \widehat{{\rm CH}}^1(\mathcal C)}$ . Our main result is an expression for the pullback ${j^*_\Lambda \widehat{\phi}_{\mathcal M}(\tau)}$ as a linear combination of products of ${\widehat{\phi}_{\mathcal C}(\tau)}$ ’s and classical weight ${\frac{1}{2}}$ theta series.     

Supports of (\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{k})-modules of finite type

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a semisimple Lie algebra and $\mathfrak{k}$ be a reductive subalgebra in $\mathfrak{g}$ . We say that a $\mathfrak{g}$ -module M is a $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{k})$ -module if M, considered as a $\mathfrak{k}$ -module, is a direct sum of finite-dimensional $\mathfrak{k}$ -modules. We say that a $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{k})$ -module M is of finite type if all $\mathfrak{k}$ -isotopic components of M are finite-dimensional. In this paper we prove that any simple $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{k})$ -module of finite type is holonomic. A simple $\mathfrak{g}$ -module M is associated with the invariants V(M), V(LocM), and L(M) reflecting the ??directions of growth of M.?? We also prove that for a given pair $(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{k})$ the set of possible invariants is finite.     

Generalized Complex Spherical Harmonics, Frame Functions, and Gleason Theorem

Consider a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space ${\mathcal{H}}$ , with ${dim(\mathcal{H}) \geq 3}$ , define ${\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}):= \{x\in \mathcal{H} \:|\: \|x\|=1\}}$ , and let ${\nu_\mathcal{H}}$ be the unique regular Borel positive measure invariant under the action of the unitary operators in ${\mathcal{H}}$ , with ${\nu_\mathcal{H}(\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}))=1}$ . We prove that if a complex frame function ${f : \mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H})\to \mathbb{C}}$ satisfies ${f \in \mathbb{L}^2(\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}), \nu_\mathcal{H})}$ , then it verifies Gleason’s statement: there is a unique linear operator ${A: \mathcal{H} \to \mathcal{H}}$ such that ${f(u) = \langle u| A u\rangle}$ for every ${u \in \mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}).\,A}$ is Hermitean when f is real. No boundedness requirement is thus assumed on f a priori.     

On the Left and Right Brylinski-Kostant Filtrations

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex semisimple Lie algebra, $\mathfrak{b}$ a Borel subalgebra, and $\mathfrak{h}\subset\mathfrak{b}$ a Cartan subalgebra. Let V be a finite dimensional simple $U(\mathfrak{g})$ module. Based on a principal s-triple (e,h,f) and following work of Kostant, Brylinski (J Amer Math Soc 2(3):517–533, 1989) defined a filtration $\mathcal{F}_e$ for all weight subspaces V _μ of V and calculated the dimensions of the graded subspaces for μ dominant. In Joseph et al. (J Amer Math Soc 13(4):945–970, 2000) these dimensions were calculated for all μ. Let δM(0) be the finite dual of the Verma module of highest weight 0. It identifies with the global functions on a Weyl group translate of the open Bruhat cell and so inherits a natural degree filtration. On the other hand, up to an appropriate shift of weights, there is a unique $U(\mathfrak{b})$ module embedding of V into δM(0) and so the degree filtration induces a further filtration $\mathcal{F}$ on each weight subspace V _μ . A casual reading of Joseph et al. (J Amer Math Soc 13(4):945–970, 2000) might lead one to believe that $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{F}_e$ coincide. However this is quite false. Rather one should view $\mathcal{F}_e$ as coming from a left action of $U(\mathfrak{n})$ and then there is a second (Brylinski-Kostant) filtration $\mathcal{F}'_e$ coming from a right action. It is $\mathcal{F}'_e$ which may coincide with $\mathcal{F}$ . In this paper the above claim is made precise. First it is noted that $\mathcal{F}$ is itself not canonical, but depends on a choice of variables. Then it is shown that a particular choice can be made to ensure that $\mathcal{F}=\mathcal{F}'_e$ . An explicit form for the unique left $U(\mathfrak{b})$ module embedding $V\hookrightarrow\delta M(0)$ is given using the right action of $U(\mathfrak{n})$ . This is used to give a purely algebraic proof of Brylinski’s main result in Brylinski (J Amer Math Soc 2(3):517–533, 1989) which is much simpler than Joseph et al. (J Amer Math Soc 13(4):945–970, 2000). It is noted that the dimensions of the graded subspaces of $\rm{gr}_{\mathcal{F}_e} V_{\!\mu}$ and $\rm{gr}_{\mathcal{F}'_e} V_{\!\mu}$ can be very different. Their interrelation may involve the Kashiwara involution. Indeed a combinatorial formula for multiplicities in tensor products involving crystal bases and the Kashiwara involution is recovered. Though the dimensions for the graded subspaces of $\rm{gr}_{\mathcal{F}'_e} V_{\!\mu}$ are determined by polynomial degree, their values remain unknown.     

Spectral Properties of Two Classes of Averaging Operators on the Little Bloch Space and the Analytic Besov Spaces

We investigate spectral properties of operators of the form $$\begin{aligned} P_\mu f(z):=-\frac{1}{(1-z)^{\mu +1}}\int _1^z f(\zeta )(1-\zeta )^{\mu }\,d\zeta \end{aligned}$$ and $$\begin{aligned} Q_\mu f(z):=(1-z)^{\mu -1}\int _0^z f(\zeta )(1-\zeta )^{-\mu }\,d\zeta \quad (z\in \mathbb{D }) \end{aligned}$$ acting on the analytic Besov spaces $B_p$ and the little Bloch space $\mathcal B _0$ . For $X=B_p$ , $1\le p\le \infty $ , or $X=\mathcal B _0$ , we identify the spectra of $P_\mu $ and $Q_\mu $ in $\mathcal{L }(X)$ , as well as, in the case $X\ne B_\infty $ , the essential spectrum and index together with one sided analytic resolvents in the Fredholm regions of $P_\mu $ and $Q_\mu $ .     

On The Structure of A Commutative Banach Algebra Generated By Toeplitz Operators With Quasi-Radial Quasi-Homogeneous Symbols

Let ${\mathcal{A}_{\lambda}^2(\mathbb{B}^n)}$ denote the standard weighted Bergman space over the unit ball ${\mathbb{B}^n}$ in ${\mathbb{C}^n}$ . New classes of commutative Banach algebras ${\mathcal{T}(\lambda)}$ which are generated by Toeplitz operators on ${\mathcal{A}_{\lambda}^2(\mathbb{B}^n)}$ have been recently discovered in Vasilevski (Integr Equ Oper Theory 66(1):141?C152, 2010). These algebras are induced by the action of the quasi-elliptic group of biholomorphisms of ${\mathbb{B}^n}$ . In the present paper we analyze in detail the internal structure of such an algebra in the lowest dimensional case n?=?2. We explicitly describe the maximal ideal space and the Gelfand map of ${\mathcal{T}(\lambda)}$ . Since ${\mathcal{T}(\lambda)}$ is not invariant under the *-operation of ${\mathcal{L}(\mathcal{A}_{\lambda}^2(\mathbb{B}^n))}$ its inverse closedness is not obvious and is proved. We remark that the algebra ${\mathcal{T}(\lambda)}$ is not semi-simple and we derive its radical. Several applications of our results are given and, in particular, we conclude that the essential spectrum of elements in ${\mathcal{T}(\lambda)}$ is always connected.
