Suites d’Applications Méromorphes Multivaluées et Courants Laminaires

Let F_n: X₁ → X₂ be a sequence of (multivalued) meromorphic maps between compact Kähler manifolds. We study the asymptotic distribution of preimages of points by F_n and, for multivalued self-maps of a compact Riemann surface, the asymptotic distribution of repelling fixed points. Let (Z_n) be a sequence of holomorphic images of ?^s in a projective manifold. We prove that the currents, defined by integration on Z_n, properly normalized, converge to currents which satisfy some laminarity property. We also show this laminarity property for the Green currents, of suitable bidimensions, associated to a regular polynomial automorphism of ?^k or an automorphism of a projective manifold.     

Variations of Dirichlet-to-Neumann map and deformation boundary rigidity of simple 2-manifolds

The Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DN) map Λ_g: C^∞ (?M) → C^∞(?M) on a compact Riemannian manifold (M, g) with boundary is defined by Λ_gh = ?u/?v¦in{t6M}, where u is the solution to the Dirichlet problem Δu = 0, u¦?M = h and v is the unit normal to the boundary. If g^t = g + t? is a variation of the metric g by a symmetric tensor field ?, then Λ_g ^t = Λ_g + tΛ_? + o(t). We study the question: How do tensor fields ? look like for which Λ_? =0? A partial answer is obtained for a general manifold, and the complete answer is given in the two cases: For the Euclidean metric and in the 2D-case. The latter result is used for proving the deformation boundary rigidity of a simple 2-manifold.     

THE FUNDAMENTAL GROUP IN FIBRATIONS

A generalized Mayer-Vietoris sequence involving crossed homomorphisms is established and the construction is applied to the homotopy sequence of the CW-pair (X.X¹) to relate the homotopy sequences of (X.X¹) and the fibre bundle F → E → X in low dimensions. If there is a partial cross-section of E → X over X², the classical form, π₁ E ～ π₁ [xtilde] π₁ F as a semidirect product, results. In case there is no extension over X² of any cross-section of the restricted bundle χ:π₂ (x², x¹) → X¹ the corresponding obstruction map X_E:π₂(x²,x¹) → π₁F is non-trivial and in case F → E → X is an SO(n)-bundle (n ≥ 3), χ_E maps into a subgroup of the centre, Z(π₁ F), of order at most 2.     

Algebraic morphisms into grassmannians:differential geometry and frobenius

Let Xbe a projective variety (over Spec(K)) and f:X→G(r,v) a morphism to a Grassmannian, i.e. a pair (E,V) where E is a rank r vector bundle on V?H^O(X,E) is a subspace spanning E with dim(V) = v. Here we study the differential properties of f and their relations to a sequence of quotient bundles E→E₁→E₂→of E called the derived bundles of (E,V). In the first 5 sections we study the case X a smooth curve, char(K) >0 (the case char(K) = 0, being due to D. Perkinson). Then we give a general duality theorem for the derived bundles when Xis any normal variety.     

Approximation of Solutions of Nonlinear Equations of Monotone and Hammerstein Type

Let X be a real uniformly smooth and uniformly convex Banach space with dual X ^*. Let A: X → X ^* be a bounded uniformly submonotone map. It is proved that a Mann-type approximation sequence converges strongly to Jx ^* where x ^* ∈ N(A). Furthermore, as an application of this result an iterative sequence which converges strongly to a solution of the Hammerstein equation u+KFu = 0 is constructed where, F:X→X^* and K:X^*→X are monotone-type mappings. No invertibility assumption is imposed on K. Moreover, neither K nor F need be compact. Finally, our method is of independent interest.     

An initial value problem for a singular parabolic equation of even order

At first Cauchy-problem for the equation: \(L[u(X,t)] \equiv \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {\frac{{\partial ^2 u}}{{\partial x_1^2 }} + \frac{{2v}}{{\left| X \right|^2 }}} \sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {x_i \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial x_i }} - \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}} = 0} \) wheren≥1,v—an arbitrary constant,t>0,X=(x ₁, …, x_n)∈E ⁿ/{0}, |X|= =(x ₁ ² +…+x _n ² )^1/2, with 0 being a centre of coordinate system, is studied. Basing on the above, the solution of Cauchy-Nicolescu problem is given which consist in finding a solution of the equationL ^p [u (X, t)]=0, withp∈N subject the initial conditions \(\mathop {\lim }\limits_{t \to \infty } L^k [u(X,t)] = \varphi _k (X)\) ,k=0, 1,…,p?1 and ?_k(X) are given functions.     

A general theory of surrogate dual and perturbational extended surrogate dual optimization problems

For the optimization problem (P) α = inf h(G), where G ≠ Ø is a subset of a locally convex space $\text{F}\text{and}\text{h: F →}\text{R}\text{?}$, we introduce and study two general concepts of dual problems, encompassing the classical surrogate dual problem. The first one involves only a family of surrogate constraints sets Δ_{G, Φ} ? F (Φ ∈ W), where W ? R^X, X being a locally convex space. The second one uses a perturbation functional $\text{?: F × X →}\text{R}\text{?}$ and a family of sets $\text{}\text{?}\text{gD}{}_{\mathrm{(F,x0),\Phi }}\text{? F × X (Φ ∈ W)}$, where W ? R^X. We give duality theorems, introduce Lagrangians, and show some relations between these problems and the dual problems to (P) defined with the aid of a perturbation and a concept of conjugation of functionals.     

On Gorenstein Projective Dimensions of Unbounded Complexes

Let R → S be a ring homomorphism and X be a complex of R-modules. Then the complex of S-modules S?_R~L X in the derived category D(S) is constructed in the natural way. This paper is devoted to dealing with the relationships of the Gorenstein projective dimension of an R-complex X(possibly unbounded) with those of the S-complex S?_R~L X.It is shown that if R is a Noetherian ring of finite Krull dimension and φ : R → S is a faithfully flat ring homomorphism, then for any homologically degree-wise finite complex X, there is an equality Gpd_RX = GpdS(S?_R~L X). Similar result is obtained for Ding projective dimension of the S-complex S?_R~L X.     

Simulation de lois conjuguées et application à l'estimation de la transformée de Cramer dans ℝd

Let X, X₁, X₂,… be a sequence of i.i.d. ℝ^d-valued random variables with distribution F. An algorithm for the simulation of random vectors with distribution dF_t (x):= e〈t,x〉dF(x)/(t), where (t):= Ee^ť,X〉 (cf. [2]) is used for the estimation of the Cramer transform H (x):= sup_t (〈t, X〉 − log(t)). This method, which belongs to the class of “acceptance-rejection” techniques, is fast and uses a random sieve on the sequence (X_i)_{i ≥ 1}; it does not assume any prior knowledge on F or . We state the asymptotic properties of this estimator calculated on a n-sample of simulated r.v. 's with distribution F_t. We also present some numerical simulations.     

Fixed point theory and product,sub-, super-spaces

In this paper, we definen-segmentwise metric spaces and then we prove the following results:

1. (i)|Let (X, d) be ann-segmentwise metric space. ThenX ⁿ has the fixed point property with respect to uniformly continuous bounded functions if and only if, for any continuous functionF: C ^*(X) → C^*(X) and for anyn-tuple of distinct points x₁, x₂, ?, x_n ∈X, there exists anh ∈C ^*(X) such that $$F(h)(x_1 ) = h(x_1 ),i = 1,2,...,n;$$ whereC ^*(X) has either the uniform topology or the subspace product (Tychonoff) topology \((C^ * (X) \subseteq X^X )\) .
2. LetX _i (i = 1, 2, ?) be countably compact Hausdorff spaces such thatX ₁ × ? × X_n has the fixed point property for alln ∈N Then the product spaceX ₁ × X₂ × ? has the fixed point property. We shall also discuss several problems in the Fixed Point Theory and give examples if necessary. Among these examples, we have:
3. There exists a connected metric spaceX which can be decomposed as a disjoint union of a closed setA and an open setB such thatA andB have the fixed point property andX does not have.
4. There exists a locally compact metrizable spaceX which has the fixed point property but its one-point compactificationX ⁺ does not have the fixed point property.

Other relevant results and examples will be presented in this paper.     

Growth properties of plurisubharmonic functions related to Fourier-Laplace transforms

The purpose of the paper is to study the behavior at infinity of Fourier-Laplace transforms of distributions or more generally plurisubharmonic functions u in Cⁿ with bounds of the form

Asymptotic equilibrium of ordinary differential systems

A theorem on asymptotic equilibrium is proved for the solutions of the system(1)X ⁿ=f(t,X), x ^t ₀=x_o where f(t,x) is majorized by a funciton g(t,u) which is non-increasing in u. It is of interest to notice that the funcitons f(t,x) and g(t,u) need not be defined for x=0 and u=0 respectively. Such majorant functions occur in gravitational problems and therefore the result is of pracitcal interest.Using this, the asymptotic relatiohship between the solutions of(2)y=A(t)y, y ^t _o=y_oand its nonlinear perturbation(3) X=A(t)x+f(t,x), X^t _o is investigated. This last result includes as a special case two theorems of Hallam[2]     

Convergence of the Kato approximants for evolution equations involving functional perturbations

The existence of a unique strong solution of the nonlinear abstract functional differential equation $\text{u′(t) + A(t)u(t) = F(t,u}{}_{\mathrm{t}}\text{), u}{}_0\text{= φεC}{}^1\text{(¦?r,0¦,X),tε¦0, T¦}$, (E) is established. X is a Banach space with uniformly convex dual space and, for $\text{t? ¦0, T¦, A(t)}$ is m-accretive and satisfies a time dependence condition suitable for applications to partial differential equations. The function F satisfies a Lipschitz condition. The novelty of the paper is that the solution u(t) of (E) is shown to be the uniform limit (as n → ∞) of the sequence u_n(t), where the functions u_n(t) are continuously differentiate solutions of approximating equations involving the Yosida approximants. Thus, a straightforward approximation scheme is now available for such equations, in parallel with the approach involving the use of nonlinear evolution operator theory.     

On intertwining operators

LetB(H) denote the algebra of operators on the Hilbert spaceH into itself. GivenA,BB(H), defineC (A, B) andR (A, B):B(H)B(H) byC (A, B) X=AX–XB andR(A, B) X=AXB–X. Our purpose in this note is a twofold one. we show firstly that ifA andB ^*B (H) are dominant operators such that the pure part ofB has non-trivial kernel, thenC ⁿ (A, B) X=0, n some natural number, implies thatC (A, B)X=C(A ^*,B ^*)X=0. Secondly, it is shown that ifA andB ^* are contractions withC ₀ completely non-unitary parts, thenR ⁿ (A, B) X=0 for some natural numbern implies thatR (A, B) X=R (A ^*,B ^*)X=C (A, B ^*)X=C (A ^*,B) X=0. In the particular case in whichX is of the Hilbert—Schmidt class, it is shown that his result extends to all contractionsA andB.     

Lower bounds for the blowup rate of solutions of the Zakharov equation in dimension two

We consider the blowup solution ( u,n,v )( t ) of the Zakharov equations where u : R ² → C, n : R ² → R, v: R² → R² in the energy space H₁ = {(u,n,v) η H¹ × L² × L²}. We show that there is a constant c depending on the L²-norm of u₀ such that where T is the blowup time. We check that this estimate is optimal and give further applications. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Duality theorems for perturbed convex optimization

We show that if F, X are two locally convex spaces and $\text{h: F →}\text{R}\text{?}\text{, ?: F × X → R}$ are two convex functionals satisfying h(y) = ?(y, x₀) (y?F) for some x₀?X, then, under suitable assumptions, the computation of inf h(F) can be reduced to the computation of inf ?(H) on certain hyperplanes H of F × X. We give some applications.     

Zeros of accretive operators

In the investigation of accretive operators in Banach spaces X, the existence of zeros plays an important role, since it yields surjectivity results as well as fixed point theorems for operators S such that I-S is accretive. Let D?X and T: D→X an operator such that the initial value problems (1) u′(t)=-Tu(t), u(0)=x εD are solvable. Then T has a zero iff (1) has a constant solution for some xεD. Under certain assumptions on D and T it is possible to show that (1) has a unique solution u(t,x) on [0,∞), for every xεD. In this case, define U(t): D→D by U(t)x=u(t,x). If T is accretive it turns out that U(t) is nonexpansive for every t≥0. This fact constitutes the basis for several authors concerned with this subject. They proceed with assumptions on D and X ensuring either that the U(t) must have a common fixed point x_o or that U(_p) has a fixed point x_p for every p≥0. In the first case, U(t)x_o is a constant solution of (1), whence Tx_o=0. In the second case, U(t)x_p is a p-periodic solution of (1). Hence, one has to impose additional conditions on T which imply that a p-periodic solution must be constant, for some p>0. The main purpose of the present paper is to show that, in certain situations, either the operators U(t) are actually strict contractions or T may be approximated by operators T_n such that the corresponding U_n(t) are strict contractions. Thus, we obtain several results in general Banach spaces and a unification of some results in special spaces.
