The approximation property for spaces of holomorphic functions on infinite dimensional spaces II

Let H(U) denote the vector space of all complex-valued holomorphic functions on an open subset U of a Banach space E. Let τω and τδ respectively denote the compact-ported topology and the bornological topology on H(U). We show that if E is a Banach space with a shrinking Schauder basis, and with the property that every continuous polynomial on E is weakly continuous on bounded sets, then (H(U),τω) and (H(U),τδ) have the approximation property for every open subset U of E. The classical space c₀, the original Tsirelson space T^∗ and the Tsirelson^∗-James space are examples of Banach spaces which satisfy the hypotheses of our main result. Our results are actually valid for Riemann domains.     

Strongly quasibounded maximal monotone perturbations for the Berkovits-Mustonen topological degree theory

Let X be a real reflexive Banach space with dual X^∗. Let L:X⊃D(L)→X^∗ be densely defined, linear and maximal monotone. Let T:X⊃D(T)→X^∗2, with 0∈D(T) and 0∈T(0), be strongly quasibounded and maximal monotone, and C:X⊃D(C)→X^∗ bounded, demicontinuous and of type (S₊) w.r.t. D(L). A new topological degree theory has been developed for the sum L+T+C. This degree theory is an extension of the Berkovits-Mustonen theory (for T=0) and an improvement of the work of Addou and Mermri (for T:X→X^∗2 bounded). Unbounded maximal monotone operators with are strongly quasibounded and may be used with the new degree theory.     

Hyponormal operators with rank-two self-commutators

In this paper it is shown that if T∈L(H) satisfies

(i)

T is a pure hyponormal operator;

(ii)

[T^∗,T] is of rank two; and

(iii)

ker[T^∗,T] is invariant for T,

then T is either a subnormal operator or the Putinar's matricial model of rank two. More precisely, if T_|ker[T^∗,T] has a rank-one self-commutator then T is subnormal and if instead T_|ker[T^∗,T] has a rank-two self-commutator then T is either a subnormal operator or the kth minimal partially normal extension, , of a (k+1)-hyponormal operator Tk which has a rank-two self-commutator for any k∈Z₊. Hence, in particular, every weakly subnormal (or 2-hyponormal) operator with a rank-two self-commutator is either a subnormal operator or a finite rank perturbation of a k-hyponormal operator for any k∈Z₊.     

Convergence theorems for fixed points of uniformly continuous generalized Φ-hemi-contractive mappings

Let E be a real normed linear space, K be a nonempty subset of E and be a uniformly continuous generalized Φ-hemi-contractive mapping, i.e., , and there exist x^∗∈F(T) and a strictly increasing function , Φ(0)=0 such that for all x∈K, there exists j(x−x^∗)∈J(x−x^∗) such that

Nonlinear conditions for weighted composition operators between Lipschitz algebras

Let T:Lip₀(X)→Lip₀(Y) be a surjective map between pointed Lipschitz ^∗-algebras, where X and Y are compact metric spaces. On the one hand, we prove that if T satisfies the non-symmetric norm ^∗-multiplicativity condition:

     

Elementary operators on self-adjoint operators

Let H be a Hilbert space and let A and B be standard ∗-operator algebras on H. Denote by As and Bs the set of all self-adjoint operators in A and B, respectively. Assume that and are surjective maps such that M(AM^∗(B)A)=M(A)BM(A) and M^∗(BM(A)B)=M^∗(B)AM^∗(B) for every pair A∈As, B∈Bs. Then there exist an invertible bounded linear or conjugate-linear operator and a constant c∈{−1,1} such that M(A)=cTAT^∗, A∈As, and M^∗(B)=cT^∗BT, B∈Bs.     

The sum of unitary similarity orbits containing only special operators

Let B(H) be the algebra of bounded linear operator acting on a Hilbert space H (over the complex or real field). Characterization is given to A₁,…,A_k∈B(H) such that for any unitary operators is always in a special class S of operators such as normal operators, self-adjoint operators, unitary operators. As corollaries, characterizations are given to A∈B(H) such that complex, real or nonnegative linear combinations of operators in its unitary orbit U(A)={U^∗AU:Uunitary} always lie in S.     

Toeplitz operators associated to commuting row contractions

Let H be a complex Hilbert space and let {Tn}_n?1 be a sequence of commuting bounded operators on H such that . Let denote the space of all operators X in B(H) for which and suppose that . We will show that there exists a triple {K,Γ,{Un}_n?1} where K is a Hilbert space, Γ:K→H is a bounded operator and {Un}_n?1⊂B(K) is a sequence of commuting normal operators with such that TnΓ=ΓUn for n?1, and for which the mapping Y?ΓYΓ^∗ is a complete isometry from the commutant of {Un}_n?1 onto the space . Moreover we show that the inverse of this mapping can be extended to a ^∗-homomorphism

     

A formula for the central value of certain Hecke L-functions

Let be the negative of a prime, and O_K its ring of integers. Let D be a prime ideal in O_K of prime norm congruent to . Under these assumptions, there exists Hecke characters ψ_D of K with conductor (D) and infinite type (1,0). Their L-series L(ψ_D,s) are associated to a CM elliptic curve A(N,D) defined over the Hilbert class field of K. We will prove a Waldspurger-type formula for L(ψ_D,s) of the form L(ψ_D,1)=Ω∑_[A],Ir(D,[A],I)m_[A],I([D]) where the sum is over class ideal representatives I of a maximal order in the quaternion algebra ramified at |N| and infinity and [A] are class group representatives of K. An application of this formula for the case N=-7 will allow us to prove the non-vanishing of a family of L-series of level 7|D| over K.     

A completion theorem for pro-G-spectra

We give a very general completion theorem for pro-spectra. We show that, if G is a compact Lie group, M[∗] is a pro-G-spectrum, and F is a family of (closed) subgroups of G, then the mapping pro-spectrum F(EF₊,M[∗]) is the F-adic completion of M[∗], in the sense that the map M[∗]→F(EF₊,M[∗]) is the universal map into an algebraically F-adically complete pro-spectrum. Here, F(EF₊,M[∗]) denotes the pro-G-spectrum , where runs over the finite subcomplexes of EF₊.

Representations of matroids and free resolutions for multigraded modules

Let k be a field, let R=k[x₁,…,xm] be a polynomial ring with the standard Zm-grading (multigrading), let L be a Noetherian multigraded R-module, and let be a finite free multigraded presentation of L over R. Given a choice S of a multihomogeneous basis of E, we construct an explicit canonical finite free multigraded resolution T_•(Φ,S) of the R-module L. In the case of monomial ideals our construction recovers the Taylor resolution. A main ingredient of our work is a new linear algebra construction of independent interest, which produces from a representation ? over k of a matroid M a canonical finite complex of finite dimensional k-vector spaces T_•(?) that is a resolution of Ker?. We also show that the length of T_•(?) and the dimensions of its components are combinatorial invariants of the matroid M, and are independent of the representation map ?.     

Hypergeometric series solutions of linear operator equations

Let K be a field and L:K[x]→K[x] be a linear operator acting on the ring of polynomials in x over the field K. We provide a method to find a suitable basis {b_k(x)} of K[x] and a hypergeometric term c_k such that is a formal series solution to the equation L(y(x))=0. This method is applied to construct hypergeometric representations of orthogonal polynomials from the differential/difference equations or recurrence relations they satisfied. Both the ordinary cases and the q-cases are considered.     

Semigroup crossed products and the induced algebras of lattice-ordered groups

Let (G,G₊) be a quasi-lattice-ordered group with positive cone G₊. Laca and Raeburn have shown that the universal C^∗-algebra C^∗(G,G₊) introduced by Nica is a crossed product BG₊α_×G₊ by a semigroup of endomorphisms. The goal of this paper is to extend some results for totally ordered abelian groups to the case of discrete lattice-ordered abelian groups. In particular given a hereditary subsemigroup H₊ of G₊ we introduce a closed ideal IH₊ of the C^∗-algebra BG₊. We construct an approximate identity for this ideal and show that IH₊ is extendibly α-invariant. It follows that there is an isomorphism between C^∗-crossed products and B₊(G/H)β_×G₊. This leads to our main result that B₊(G/H)β_×G₊ is realized as an induced C^∗-algebra .     

On the regularity of the Navier-Stokes equation in a thin periodic domain

We address the global regularity of solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in a thin domain Ω=[0,L₁]×[0,L₂]×[0,?] with periodic boundary conditions, where L₁,L₂>0 and ?∈(0,1/2). We prove that if

     

Stability of associated primes of integral closures of monomial ideals

Let I be a monomial ideal of a polynomial ring R=K[X₁,…,Xr] and d(I) the maximal degree of minimal generators of I. In this paper, we explicitly determine a number n₀ in terms of r and d(I) such that for all n?n₀. Furthermore, our n₀ is almost sharp.     

Two-sided hyperbolic SVD

In this paper, we propose the two-sided hyperbolic SVD (2HSVD) for square matrices, i.e., A=UΣV^[∗], where U and V^[∗] are J-unitary (J=diag(±1)) and Σ is a real diagonal matrix of “double-hyperbolic” singular values. We show that, with some natural conditions, such decomposition exists without the use of hyperexchange matrices. In other words, U and V^[∗] are really J-unitary with regard to J and not some matrix which is permutationally similar to matrix J. We provide full characterization of 2HSVD and completely relate it to the semidefinite J-polar decomposition.     

On the value distribution and moments of the Epstein zeta function to the right of the critical strip

We study the Epstein zeta function En(L,s) for and a random lattice L of large dimension n. For any fixed we determine the value distribution and moments of En(⋅,cn) (suitably normalized) as n→∞. We further discuss the random function c?En(⋅,cn) for c∈[A,B] with and determine its limit distribution as n→∞.     

The minimum distance of sets of points and the minimum socle degree

Let K be a field of characteristic 0. Let be a reduced finite set of points, not all contained in a hyperplane. Let be the maximum number of points of Γ contained in any hyperplane, and let . If I⊂R=K[x₀,…,x_n] is the ideal of Γ, then in Tohaˇneanu (2009) [12] it is shown that for n=2,3, d(Γ) has a lower bound expressed in terms of some shift in the graded minimal free resolution of R/I. In these notes we show that this behavior holds true in general, for any n≥2: d(Γ)≥A_n, where A_n=min{a_i−n} and ⊕_iR(−a_i) is the last module in the graded minimal free resolution of R/I. In the end we also prove that this bound is sharp for a whole class of examples due to Juan Migliore (2010) [10].
