On Some Isomorphism on the Category of b-Spaces

Given a nuclear b-space N, we show that if is a finite or -finite measure space and 1p, then the functors L _loc ^p (,N.) and NL ^p (,.) are isomorphic on the category of b-spaces of L. Waelbroeck.     

Subsets with Restricted Movement

Let G be a finite permutation group on a set with no fixed points in and let m and k be integers with 0 < m < k. For a finite subset of the movement of is defined as move() = max_gG| ^g \ |. Suppose further that G is not a 2-group and that p is the least odd prime dividing |G| and move() m for all k-element subsets of . Then either || k + m or k (7m – 5) / 2, || (9m – 3)/2. Moreover when || > k + m, then move() m for every subset of .     

On the Movement of Transitive Permutation p-Groups

Let G be a transitive permutation group on a set and m a positive integer. If | – | m for every subset of and all g G, then || 2mp/(p – 1) where p is the least odd prime dividing |G|. It was shown by Mann and Praeger [13] that, for p = 3, the 3-groups G which attain this bound have exponent p. In this paper we will show a generalization of this result for any odd primes.AMS Subject Classification (2000), 20BXX     

Harmonic analysis on tori

We consider measurable subsets {ofR}ⁿ with 0<m()<, and we assume that has a spectral set . (In the special case when is also assumed open, may be obtained as the joint spectrum of a family of commuting self-adjoint operators {H _k: 1kn} in L ² () such that each H _k is an extension of i(/x _k) on C _c (), k=1, ..., n.)It is known that is a fundamental domain for a lattice if is itself a lattice. In this paper, we consider a class of examples where is not assumed to be a lattice. Instead is assumed to have a certain inhomogeneous form, and we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for to be a fundamental domain for some lattice in {ofR}ⁿ. We are thus able to decide the question, fundamental domain or not, by considering only properties of the spectrum . Our criterion is obtained as a corollary to a theorem concerning partitions of sets which have a spectrum of inhomogeneous form.Work supported in part by the NSF.Work supported in part by the NSRC, Denmark.     

A r (Ω)-Weighted Imbedding Inequalities for A-Harmonic Tensors

We prove the basic A _r ()-weighted imbedding inequalities for A-harmonic tensors. These results can be used to estimate the integrals for A-harmonic tensors and to study the integrability of A-harmonic tensors and the properties of the homotopy operator T: C (D, ^l )C (D, ^l–1).     

Cohomological characterization of pseudoconvexity in a Banach space

Let X be a Banach space with a countable unconditional basis (e.g., X=₂), X open. We show that is pseudoconvex if and only if for each affine complex line L in X the sheaf cohomology group H ¹ (,I) vanishes, where I is the ideal sheaf of all holomorphic functions on that vanish on L. We also give an example that the condition H ^q (,)=0 for all q1 unlike in finite dimensions does not imply the pseudoconvexity of . Lastly, we prove an interpolation result.

Total flux estimates for a finite element approximation of the Dirichlet problem using the boundary penalty method

Summary This paper considers a fully practical piecewise linear finite element approximation of the Dirichlet problem for a second order self-adjoint elliptic equation,Au=f, in a smooth region< ⁿ (n=2 or 3) by the boundary penalty method. Using an unfitted mesh; that is ^h , an approximation of with dist (, ^h )Ch ² is not in general a union of elements; and assuminguH ⁴ () we show that one can recover the total flux across a segment of the boundary of with an error ofO(h ²⁾. We use these results to study a fully practical piecewise linear finite element approximation of an elliptic equation by the boundary penalty method when the prescribed data on part of the boundary is the total flux.Supported by a SERC research studentship     

Isoperimetric inequalities in a boundary value problem on a Riemannian manifold

In this paper the problem u+1=0 in ,u=0 on is considered. Here is a finite domain on a Riemannian manifold and the associated Laplace-Beltrami operator. By means of maximum principles isoperimetric bounds for the maximum ofu and the maximum of the absolute value of the gradient ofu, as well as some related bounds are derived.

Projections on Lp-spaces of polyanalytic functions

The fundamental result: for an arbitrary bounded, simply connected domain in , the subspace L_n,m ^p() of the space L^p(, ) ( is the plane Lebesgue measure, p 1), consisting of the (m, n)-analytic functions in , is complemented in LP(, ) (a function f is said to be (m, n)-analytic if (^m+n/¯Z^mZⁿ)f=0 in ). Consequently, by virtue of a theorem of J. Lindenstrauss and A. Pelczyski, the space L_n,m ^P() is linearly homeomorphic to lP. In particular, for m=n=1 we obtain that the space of all harmonic L^P-functions in is complemented in L^P(, ). This result has been known earlier only for smooth domains.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im. V. A.
