Hulls for Various Kinds of α-Completeness in Archimedean Lattice-Ordered Groups

Within Archimedean -groups, and with an infinite cardinal or , we consider X-hulls where X stands for any of the following classes of -groups: -projectable; laterally -complete; boundedly laterally -complete; conditionally -complete; combinations of the preceding, together with divisibility and/or relative uniform completeness. All these hulls exist, and may be obtained by iterated adjunction of the required extra elements, within the essential hull. When the -groups is relatively -complemented one step in the iteration suffices for several crucial properties. We derive from the above a considerable number of equations involving combinations of these hull operators.     

Properties of the Set of Extreme Solutions for a Class of Nonlinear Second-Order Evolution Inclusions

We establish the existence of extreme solutions for a class of nonlinear second-order evolution inclusions with a nonconvex right-hand side defined on an evolution triple of Banach spaces. Then we show that extreme solutions which belong to the solution set of the original system are in fact dense and codense in the solution set of a system with a convexified right-hand side. The necessary and sufficient conditions for closedness of the solution set for the original system in an appropriate spaces of functions are given as well. Finally, an example of a nonlinear hyperbolic distributed parameter system is worked out in detail.

On the variational convergence of non-coercive quadratic integral functionals and semicontinuity problems

In this paper we give some results about convergence of non coercive quadratic integral functionals by examining the behaviour of coefficients. We apply our results to semicontinuity problems and we illustrate them by some examples.AMS Subject Classification: 40A10, 49J45.     

On a One-Parameter Generalization of the Brownian Bridge and Associated Quadratic Functionals

A one-parameter generalization of the Brownian bridge is studied. These processes are then used to compute the laws of some quadratic functionals of Brownian motion, and to obtain identities in law involving local time of modified Bessel processes up to their first hitting time.     

On θ-Principal Extension and H-Closedness

A type of extensions called the -extention of topological spaces and their -equivalence and -trace systems are introduced, which ultimately characterize H-closed -extensions of a Hausdorff topological space. Also, the notion of -principal extensions is defined. A typical -principal extension consisting of certain grills on a Hausdorff space is constructed, and finally, some characterizations of H-closedness of a Hausdorff space are obtained.AMS Subject Classification (2000) 54D30 54D99     

Semi-groupes de Riesz d'ordre α sur le demi-espace

Nous donnons une forme équivalente de la densité du semi-groupe de Riesz d'ordre sur le demi-espace. La nouvelle forme nous permet d'établir des critères de comparaison du semi-groupe de Riesz d'ordre et de la résolvante associée avec leurs perturbés par une mesure de Radon positive. Abstract. We give an equivalent form of the density of the Riesz semigroup on the half space. The new form allows us to establish criterions of comparison of the Riesz semigroup and the associated resolvent with their perturbed by a nonnegative Radon measure.     

On some classes of modules

The aim of this paper is to investigate quasi-corational, comonoform, copolyform and -(co)atomic modules. It is proved that for an ordinal a right R-module M is -atomic if and only if it is -coatomic. And it is also shown that an -atomic module M is quasi-projective if and only if M is quasi-corationally complete. Some other results are developed.     

Maximum likelihood estimation in exponential orthogeodesic models

An orthogeodesic statistical model is defined in terms of five conditions of differential geometric nature. These conditions are reviewed together with a characterization theorem for exponential orthogeodesic models. Orthogonal projections, relevant for maximum likelihood estimation in exponential orthogeodesic models, are described in a simple way in terms of some of the quantities in the characterization theorem. A unified procedure for performing maximum likelihood estimation in exponential orthogenodesic models is given and the use of this procedure is illustrated for some of the most important models of this kind such as -parallel models, -parallel models and certain transformation models.

A Note on π-Engel Conditions

In this paper we show that the weakly -Engel conditions are closely related to the existance of normal -complements; while the -Engel conditions are closely related to the -nilpotent groups.AMS Subject Classification (2000): 20D20     

Multivalued Parametric Variational Inequalities with α-Pseudomonotone Maps

In this paper, we consider variational inequalities with pseudomonotone maps which depend on a parameter and study the behavior of their solutions. The main result gives sufficient conditions for the stability of the initial variational inequality problem under small perturbations of the parameter. As an application, we obtain a stability result for a class of parametric optimization problems.

A New Class of Improved Convex Underestimators for Twice Continuously Differentiable Constrained NLPs

We present a new class of convex underestimators for arbitrarily nonconvex and twice continuously differentiable functions. The underestimators are derived by augmenting the original nonconvex function by a nonlinear relaxation function. The relaxation function is a separable convex function, that involves the sum of univariate parametric exponential functions. An efficient procedure that finds the appropriate values for those parameters is developed. This procedure uses interval arithmetic extensively in order to verify whether the new underestimator is convex. For arbitrarily nonconvex functions it is shown that these convex underestimators are tighter than those generated by the BB method. Computational studies complemented with geometrical interpretations demonstrate the potential benefits of the proposed improved convex underestimators.

On the a.s. Cesàro-α convergence for stationary or orthogonal random variables

We give a new direct proof of the a.s. convergence of the Cesàro- means of a stationary process (X _n) when 0<<1 andE(X _n ^p )<+ with p>1 and we show that this result does not hold in general for p=1. We also consider similar questions for orthogonal random variables. Finally, we study the a.s. convergence of Riesz harmonic means.     

A closed formula for the čebyšev barycentric weights of optimal approximation in H2

The barycentric formula has several advantages over other means of evaluating the polynomial interpolating a function betweenn points in an interval. In particular, it is much more stable for sets of points clustered at the extremities of the interval, as are all the sets guaranteeing a good approximation forn sufficiently large. Also, it requires onlyO(n) operations for every function to be interpolated, once some weights, which depend only on the points, have been computed. Computing those weights usually requiresO(n²) operations; for ebyev points, however,O(n) operations suffice. We show here that all the above is also true for the optimal evaluation of functionals in H² by giving a closed formula for the corresponding weights.
