Inheritance of hyper-duality in imprimitive Bose–Mesner algebras

We prove the following result concerning the inheritance of hyper-duality by block and quotient Bose–Mesner algebras associated with a hyper-dual pair of imprimitive Bose–Mesner algebras. Let and denote Bose–Mesner algebras. Suppose there is a hyper-duality ψ from the subconstituent algebra of with respect to p to the subconstituent algebra of with respect to . Also suppose that is imprimitive with respect to a subset of Hadamard idempotents, so is dual imprimitive with respect to the subset of primitive idempotents, where is the formal duality associated with ψ. Let denote the block Bose–Mesner algebra of on the block containing p, and let denote the quotient Bose–Mesner algebra of with respect to . Then there is a hyper-duality from the subconstituent algebra of with respect to p to the subconstituent algebra of with respect to .     

Configurations in abelian categories. II. Ringel–Hall algebras

This is the second in a series on configurations in an abelian category . Given a finite poset (I,), an (I,)-configuration (σ,ι,π) is a finite collection of objects σ(J) and morphisms ι(J,K) or in satisfying some axioms, where J,KI. Configurations describe how an object X in decomposes into subobjects.The first paper defined configurations and studied moduli spaces of (I,)-configurations in , using the theory of Artin stacks. It showed well-behaved moduli stacks of objects and configurations in exist when is the abelian category coh(P) of coherent sheaves on a projective scheme P, or mod- of representations of a quiver Q.Write for the vector space of -valued constructible functions on the stack . Motivated by the idea of Ringel–Hall algebras, we define an associative multiplication * on using pushforwards and pullbacks along 1-morphisms between configuration moduli stacks, so that is a -algebra. We also study representations of , the Lie subalgebra of functions supported on indecomposables, and other algebraic structures on .Then we generalize all these ideas to stack functions , a universal generalization of constructible functions, containing more information. When Extⁱ(X,Y)=0 for all and i>1, or when for P a Calabi–Yau 3-fold, we construct (Lie) algebra morphisms from stack algebras to explicit algebras, which will be important in the sequels on invariants counting τ-semistable objects in .     

Semifields of order with left nucleus and center

In [G. Marino, O. Polverino, R. Trombetti, On -linear sets of PG(3,q³) and semifields, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 114 (5) (2007) 769–788] it has been proven that there exist six non-isotopic families (i=0,…,5) of semifields of order q⁶ with left nucleus and center , according to the different geometric configurations of the associated -linear sets. In this paper we first prove that any semifield of order q⁶ with left nucleus , right and middle nuclei and center is isotopic to a cyclic semifield. Then, we focus on the family by proving that it can be partitioned into three further non-isotopic families: , , and we show that any semifield of order q⁶ with left nucleus , right and middle nuclei and center belongs to the family .

Lattices generated by orbits of subspaces under finite singular pseudo-symplectic groups I

Let be the (2ν+1+l)-dimensional vector space over the finite field . In the paper we assume that is a finite field of characteristic 2, and the singular pseudo-symplectic groups of degree 2ν+1+l over . Let be any orbit of subspaces under . Denote by the set of subspaces which are intersections of subspaces in and the intersection of the empty set of subspaces of is assumed to be . By ordering by ordinary or reverse inclusion, two lattices are obtained. This paper studies the inclusion relations between different lattices, a characterization of subspaces contained in a given lattice , and the characteristic polynomial of .     

A characterization of the natural embedding of the split Cayley hexagon in by intersection numbers

In this paper, we prove that a set of q⁵+q⁴+q³+q²+q+1 lines of with the properties that (1) every point of is incident with either 0 or q+1 elements of , (2) every plane of is incident with either 0, 1 or q+1 elements of , (3) every solid of is incident with either 0, 1, q+1 or 2q+1 elements of , and (4) every hyperplane of is incident with at most q³+3q²+3q members of , is necessarily the set of lines of a regularly embedded split Cayley generalized hexagon in .     

On ternary Kloosterman sums modulo 12

Let K(a) denote the Kloosterman sum on . It is easy to see that for all . We completely characterize those for which , and . The simplicity of the characterization allows us to count the number of the belonging to each of these three classes. As a byproduct we offer an alternative proof for a new class of quasi-perfect ternary linear codes recently presented by Danev and Dodunekov.     

Weak and point-wise convergence in for filter convergence

We study those filters on for which weak -convergence of bounded sequences in C(K) is equivalent to point-wise -convergence. We show that it is sufficient to require this property only for C[0,1] and that the filter-analogue of the Rainwater extremal test theorem arises from it. There are ultrafilters which do not have this property and under the continuum hypothesis there are ultrafilters which have it. This implies that the validity of the Lebesgue dominated convergence theorem for -convergence is more restrictive than the property which we study.

Generalized rough approximations in

In this paper we will treat a generalization of inner and outer approximations of fuzzy sets, which we will call -inner and -outer approximations respectively ( being any finite set of rational numbers in [0,1]). In particular we will discuss the case of those fuzzy sets which are definable in the logic by means of step functions from the hypercube [0,1]^k and taking value in an arbitrary (finite) subset of . Then, we will show that if a fuzzy set is definable as truth table of a formula of , then both its -inner and -outer approximation are definable as truth table of formulas of . Finally, we will introduce a generalization of abstract approximation spaces and compare our approach with the notion of fuzzy rough set.     

-structure on the deformation complex of a morphism

-structure is shown to exist on the deformation complex of a morphism of associative algebras. The main step of the construction is the extension of a -algebra by an associative algebra. Actions of -algebras on associative and -algebras are analyzed; extensions of -algebras by associative and -algebras that they act upon are constructed. The resulting -algebra on the deformation complex of a morphism is shown to be quasi-isomorphic to the -algebra on the deformation complex of the corresponding diagram algebra.     

Sur le groupe d'automorphismes des géométries paraboliques de rang 1

The aim of this article is to prove the following result, which generalizes the Ferrand–Obata theorem, concerning the conformal group of a Riemannian manifold, and the Schoen–Webster theorem about the automorphism group of a strictly pseudo-convex CR structure: let M be a connected manifold endowed with a regular Cartan geometry, modelled on the boundary of the hyperbolic space of dimension d2 over , being , , or the octonions . If the automorphism group of M does not act properly on M, then M is isomorphic, as a Cartan geometry, to X, or X minus a point.     

Spaces of holomorphic functions in regular domains

Let Ω be a regular domain in the complex plane , . Let be the linear space over of the holomorphic functions f in Ω such that f⁽ⁿ⁾ is bounded in Ω and is continuously extendible to the closure of Ω, n=0,1,2,… . We endow , in a natural manner, with a structure of Fréchet space and we obtain dense subspaces F of , with good topological linear properties, also satisfying that each function f of F, distinct from zero, does not extend holomorphically outside Ω.     

Two canonical passive state/signal shift realizations of passive discrete time behaviors

A discrete time invariant linear state/signal system Σ with a Hilbert state space and a Kren signal space has trajectories (x(),w()) that are solutions of the equation , where F is a bounded linear operator from into with a closed domain whose projection onto is all of . This system is passive if the graph of F is a maximal nonnegative subspace of the Kren space . The future behavior of a passive system Σ is the set of all signal components w() of trajectories (x(),w()) of Σ on with x(0)=0 and . This is always a maximal nonnegative shift-invariant subspace of the Kren space , i.e., the space endowed with the indefinite inner product inherited from . Subspaces of with this property are called passive future behaviors. In this work we study passive state/signal systems and passive behaviors (future, full, and past). In particular, we define and study the input and output maps of a passive state/signal system, and the past/future map of a passive behavior. We then turn to the inverse problem, and construct two passive state/signal realizations of a given passive future behavior , one of which is observable and backward conservative, and the other controllable and forward conservative. Both of these are canonical in the sense that they are uniquely determined by the given data , in contrast earlier realizations that depend not only on , but also on some arbitrarily chosen fundamental decomposition of the signal space . From our canonical realizations we are able to recover the two standard de Branges–Rovnyak input/state/output shift realizations of a given operator-valued Schur function in the unit disk.     

On fractional maximal function and fractional integral on the Laguerre hypergroup

Let be the Laguerre hypergroup which is the fundamental manifold of the radial function space for the Heisenberg group.

Additive maps preserving Jordan zero-products on nest algebras

Let and be nest algebras associated with the nests and on Banach Spaces. Assume that and are complemented whenever N_-=N and M_-=M. Let be a unital additive surjection. It is shown that Φ preserves Jordan zero-products in both directions, that is Φ(A)Φ(B)+Φ(B)Φ(A)=0AB+BA=0, if and only if Φ is either a ring isomorphism or a ring anti-isomorphism. Particularly, all unital additive surjective maps between Hilbert space nest algebras which preserves Jordan zero-products are characterized completely.     

Positive solutions of singular p-Laplacian dynamic equations with sign changing nonlinearity

Let be a time scale such that . By the Schauder fixed-point theorem and the upper and lower solution method, we present some existence criteria of the positive solution of m-point singular p-Laplacian dynamic equation with boundary conditions , where φ_p(s)=|s|^p-2s with p>1, is continuous for i=1,2,…,m-1 and nonincreasing if . The nonlinear term may be singular in its dependent variable and is allowed to change sign. Our results are new even for the corresponding differential and difference equations . As an application, an example is given to illustrate our result.

In this paper, we propose necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of common hermitian and positive solutions to the equations , and obtain the formulae for the general forms of these solutions. Some results, known for finite matrices and Hilbert space operators, are extended to the adjointable operators acting on Hilbert C^*-modules.
