A conditional dilatation equation

Summary The following theorem holds true. Theorem. Let X be a normed real vector space of dimension 3 and let k > 0 be a fixed real number. Suppose that f: X X and g: X × X are functions satisfying x – y = k f(x) – f(y) = g(x, y)(x – y) for all x, y X. Then there exist elements and t X such that f(x) = x + t for all x X and such that g(x, y) = for all x, y X with x – y = k.     

Über die Minimalflächen des isotropen Raumes,welche zugleich Affinminimalflächen sind

One determines all the minimal surfaces of the isotropic space, which simultaneously are affinminimal surfaces. A characteristic property of those surfaces is that the isotropic spherical imagines of the asymptotic lines of form two orthogonal pencils of circles. There are three types of such surfaces : first the well known right helicoid _I , second an interesting transcendental surface _II , and third the isotropic analogy _III of the minimal surface ofEnneper. The surfaces permit cinematic generations. Especially _II and _III can be generated byClifford screws in a certain indefinite quasielliptic space.In the isotropic space conjugate to the surfaces are isotropic minimal surfaces ^* with plane lines of curvature. There are also three types of such surfaces: _I ^* is a logarithmic surface of revolution, _II ^* is an interesting transcendental surface, and _III ^* is again the isotropic minimal surface ofEnnerper.

Zusammenfassung Die zeitabhängige (instationäre) Lösung für die Zustandswahrscheinlichkeiten und für einige Kenngrößen von Warteschlangensystemen mit einer Bedienungsstation, unendlich vielen Warteplätzen, exponentiellem Zu- und Abgang und beliebigem Anfangszustand wird bestimmt.

Summary The time dependent solution is determined for the state probabilities and for some characteristic values of queuing systems with a single server, an infinite number of waiting places, exponentially distributed inter-arrival and service times, and any initial state. The state probabilitiesP _v (), i.e. the probabilities for units in the system at time, are given in the form of integrals in which modifiedBessel functions of the first kind occur. Integrating the state probalityP ₀() over leads to the meanL() and the varianceV() of the number of units in the system.For<1 and the systems tend to a steady state (for which the solution is known); for1 and we haveP _v ()0 for all, L(),V().If>1 asymptotic expansions for large are found givingL() andV() proportional to. If=1 simple approximate formulas for large are obtained givingL() and the standard deviation() proportional to .

On the optimality of a characterization theorem for the gamma function using the multiplication formula

Summary The following Artin type characterization of : _{+ +} is proved: Assume thatf: _{+ +} satisfies the Gauss multiplication formula for some fixedp 2,f is absolutely continuous on [l/p, 1 + ] for some > 0 and lim _{x 0} xf(x) = 1. Thenf(x) = (x) forx > 0.The optimality of this result is checked by means of counterexamples. For instance, it is shown that the result is no longer true, if f is absolutely continuous is replaced by f is continuous and of finite variation.

Some functional inequalities and their Baire category properties

Summary In the paper we consider, from a topological point of view, the set of all continuous functionsf:I I for which the unique continuous solution:I – [0, ) of(f(x)) (x, (x)) and(x, (x)) (f(x)) (x, (x)), respectively, is the zero function. We obtain also some corollaries on the qualitative theory of the functional equation(f(x)) = g(x, (x)). No assumption on the iterative behaviour off is imposed.

A sandwich theorem and Hyers—Ulam stability of affine functions

It is shown that two real functionsf andg, defined on a real intervalI, satisfy the inequalitiesf(x + (1 – )y) g(x) + (1 – )g(y) andg(x + (1 – )y) f(x) + (1 – )f(y) for allx, y I and [0, 1], iff there exists an affine functionh: I such thatf h g. As a consequence we obtain a stability result of Hyers—Ulam type for affine functions.     

The Discrete Spectrum Asymptotics with Respect to a Large Coupling Constant under Strong Nonnegative Perturbations

Let A be a self-adjoint operator, let (, ) be an inner gap in the spectrum of the operator A, and let B(t) = A + tW ^* W, where the operator W(A – iI)^-1 is not necessarily bounded. Conditions are obtained under which the spectrum of B(t) in (, ) is discrete. Let N(, A, W, ), (, ), > 0, be the number of eigenvalues of the operator B(t) passing the point (, ) as t increases from 0 to . The asymptotics of N(, A, W, ) as + is obtained in terms of the spectral asymptotics of a certain self-adjoint compact operator. Bibliography: 5 titles.     

A Selection Theorem for Strongly Regular Multivalued Mappings

We prove the following generalization of a theorem of Ferry concerning selections of strongly regular multivalued maps onto the class of paracompact spaces: Let : X (Z, ) be a map of a paracompact space X into a metric space (Z, ) whose values (x) are complete subspaces of Z and absolute extensors (AE), for every x X. Suppose that can be represented as = , where : X Y is a continuous singlevalued map of X onto some finite-dimensional paracompact space Y and : Y (Z, ) is a strongly regular map. Then for every closed subset A X and every selection r : A Z of the map |A : A Z, there exists an extension : X Z of r such that is a selection of the map . We also prove a local version of this theorem.     

Constraint decomposition algorithms in global optimization

Many global optimization problems can be formulated in the form min{c(x, y): x X, y Y, (x, y) Z, y G} where X, Y are polytopes in ^p , ⁿ , respectively, Z is a closed convex set in ^p+n, while G is the complement of an open convex set in ⁿ . The function c: ^p+n is assumed to be linear. Using the fact that the nonconvex constraints depend only upon they-variables, we modify and combine basic global optimization techniques such that some new decomposition methods result which involve global optimization procedures only in ⁿ . Computational experiments show that the resulting algorithms work well for problems with smalln.

The Milnor–Totaro Theorem for Space Polygons

If denotes the curvature and the torsion of a closed, generic, and oriented polygonal space curve X in , then we show that _X (² + ²) ds = _X ds + _X | | ds > 4 if is positive. We also show that _X (² + ²) ds 2n if no four consecutive vertices lie in a plane and X has linking number n with a straight line. These extend theorems of Milnor and Totaro.     

Sûto's method applied to a problem of Färe and Mitchell

Summary A real solution of the functional equation(x + (y – x)) = f(x) + g(y) + h(x)k(y) on a set ² is a 6-tuple (f, g, h, k, , ) of real valued functions such that the equation is identically fulfilled on. Except for cases known before—e.g. when is linear—we present all real solutions in an arbitrary region where the functions have derivatives of second order.
