Phragmén-Lindelöf theorems for second-order quasilinear elliptic equations

Analogues are formulated of the well-known, in the theory of analytic functions, Phragmen-Lindelöf theorem for the gradients of solutions of a broad class of quasilinear equations of elliptic type. Examples are given illustrating the accuracy of the results obtained for the gradients of solutions of the equations of the form div(|U|^–2u)=f(x, u, u), where f(x, u, u) is a function locally bounded in ²ⁿ⁺¹. f(x, 0, u)=0, uf(x, u, u) c¦u¦1+q(1+ ¦u|), > 1, c > 0, q > 0, is an arbitrary real number, and n >- 2. The basic role in the technique employed in the paper is played by the apparatus of capacitary characteristics.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 44, No. 10, pp. 1376–1381, October, 1992.The author sincerely appreciates E.

In the class F₁ of functions f(), regular and univalent in the annulus ={<||<1} and satisfying the conditions ¦f()¦ < 1 and f() 0 for , ¦f()¦=1 ¦¦=1, for f(l)=1, one finds the set of the values D(A)=f(A): f for an arbitrary fixed point A.

Existence and regularity of solutions for a semilinear first-order equation on the torus

The problem is considered on the N-dimensional torus with a_i and g a continuous function satisfying a growth condition as ¦u¦. We show the existence of bounded solutions that are continuous if g is strictly increasing in u.     

The arithmetic of the characteristic Pólya functions

In the framework of the theory of D. Kendall's delphic semigroups are considered problems of divisibility in the semigroup of convex characteristic functions on the semiaxis (0,). Letn ()={:₁¦₁1 or ₁=}, and I_o()={: ₁¦ ₁ N()}. The following results are proved: 1) The semigroup is almost delphic in the sense of R. Davidson. 2) N() is a set of the type G which is dense in (in the topology of uniform convergence on compacta). 3) The class I_o() contains only the function identically equal to one.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 21, No. 5, pp. 717–725, May, 1977.The author thanks I. V. Ostrovskii for the formulation of the problem and valuable remarks.     

Range of the posterior probability of an interval for priors with unimodality preserving contaminations

Range of the posterior probability of an interval over the -contamination class ={=(1–)₀+q:qQ} is derived. Here, ₀ is the elicited prior which is assumed unimodal, is the amount of uncertainty in ₀, andQ is the set of all probability densitiesq for which =(1–)₀+q is unimodal with the same mode as that of ₀. We show that the sup (resp. inf) of the posterior probability of an interval is attained by a prior which is equal to (1–)₀ except in one interval (resp. two disjoint intervals) where it is constant.

Singular perturbations in foliations

Die Nuklearität der Ultradistributionsräume und der Satz vom Kern II

Continuing the research of part I conditions equivalent to ()- or ()-nuclearity of spaces of ultradifferential functions and their duals as well as some applications are given. To get these results it is shown that tensor products of smooth sequence spaces, power series spaces, and spaces S(M_q) introduced in part I are isomorphic to suitable sequence spaces of the same class, which are stable provided the factors are stable power series spaces. Hence it is possible to establish isomorphisms between different functions spaces, to calculate the nuclearity types of tensor products by the nuclearity types of the factors, and to prove that the class of ()- or ()-nuclear spaces is closed under forming tensor products iff is multiplicatively stable.     

Relaxation of a Quadratic Functional Defined by a Nonnegative Unbounded Matrix

We study the lower semicontinuous envelope in L^p(), F, of a functional F of the form F(u)=A uudx where A=A(x) is not strictly elliptic and not bounded. We prove that F; may also be written as F;(u)= Buudx with B=AP A for a matrix P which is the matrix of an orthogonal projection. In the one-dimensional case, we characterize the domain of F and we explicit the matrix P.     

Eulerian numbers with fractional order parameters

Summary The aim of this paper is to generalize the well-known Eulerian numbers, defined by the recursion relationE(n, k) = (k + 1)E(n – 1, k) + (n – k)E(n – 1, k – 1), to the case thatn is replaced by . It is shown that these Eulerian functionsE(, k), which can also be defined in terms of a generating function, can be represented as a certain sum, as a determinant, or as a fractional Weyl integral. TheE(, k) satisfy recursion formulae, they are monotone ink and, as functions of , are arbitrarily often differentiable. Further, connections with the fractional Stirling numbers of second kind, theS(, k), > 0, introduced by the authors (1989), are discussed. Finally, a certain counterpart of the famous Worpitzky formula is given; it is essentially an approximation ofx in terms of a sum involving theE(, k) and a hypergeometric function.Dedicated to the memory of Alexander M. Ostrowski on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his birth.
