Approximation of discrete functions and Chebyshev polynomials orthogonal on the uniform grid

Let _N+2m ={−m, −m+1, …, −1, 0, 1, …,N−1,N, …,N−1+m}. The present paper is devoted to the approximation of discrete functions of the formf : _N+2m → ℝ by algebraic polynomials on the grid Ω _N ={0, 1, …,N−1}. On the basis of two systems of Chebyshev polynomials orthogonal on the sets Ω _N+m and Ω _N , respectively, we construct a linear operatorY _{n+2m, N} =Y _{n+2m, N} (f), acting in the space of discrete functions as an algebraic polynomial of degree at mostn+2m for which the following estimate holds (x ε Ω _N ):

Structural formulas and value regions of functionals in certain classes of regular functions

We study the structural properties of the class M_k,λ,b(k≥2, 0≤λ≤1, b∈ℂ\{0}) of functions f(z)=z+ ... which are regular in |z|<1 and satisfy the conditions f(z)f′(z)z⁻¹≠0 and , where J(z)=λ(1+b⁻¹zf″(z)/f′(z)+(1−λ)(b⁻¹zf′(z)/f(z)+1−b⁻¹). The value regions of some functionals on this class are found. The case λ=1 was considered in our previous paper. Bibliography: 4 titles.

On the Boundary Behaviour,Including Second Order Effects,of Solutions to Singular Elliptic Problems

For γ≥1 we consider the solution u=u（x） of the Dirichlet boundary value problem Δu ＋ u^-γ=0 in Ω, u=0 on δΩ. For γ= 1 we find the estimate u（x）=p（δ（x））[1＋A（x）（log 1/δ（x）^-6], where p（r） ≈ r r√2 log（1/r） near r = 0,δ（x） denotes the distance from x to δΩ, 0 〈ε 〈 1/2, and A（x） is a bounded function. For 1 〈 γ 〈 3 we find u（x）=（γ＋1/√2（γ-1）δ（x））^2/γ＋[1＋A（x）（δ（x））2γ-1/γ＋1] For γ3= we prove that u（x）=（2δ（x））^1/2[1＋A（x）δ（x）log 1/δ（x）]

Exchangeable Gibbs partitions and Stirling triangles

For two collections of nonnegative and suitably normalized weights W = (W_j) and V = (V_n,k), a probability distribution on the set of partitions of the set {1, …, n} is defined by assigning to a generic partition {A_j, j ≤ k} the probability V_n,k , where |A_j| is the number of elements of A_j. We impose constraints on the weights by assuming that the resulting random partitions Π _n of [n] are consistent as n varies, meaning that they define an exchangeable partition of the set of all natural numbers. This implies that the weights W must be of a very special form depending on a single parameter α ∈ [− ∞, 1]. The case α = 1 is trivial, and for each value of α ≠ = 1 the set of possible V-weights is an infinite-dimensional simplex. We identify the extreme points of the simplex by solving the boundary problem for a generalized Stirling triangle. In particular, we show that the boundary is discrete for − ∞ ≤ α < 0 and continuous for 0 ≤ α < 1. For α ≤ 0 the extremes correspond to the members of the Ewens-Pitman family of random partitions indexed by (α,θ), while for 0 < α < 1 the extremes are obtained by conditioning an (α,θ)-partition on the asymptotics of the number of blocks of Π_n as n tends to infinity.

Convergence of weighted sums of independent random variables

Let {X_k} be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with d.f. F(x). In the first part of the paper the weak convergence of the d.f.'s F_n(x) of sums is studied, where 0<α≤2, a_nk>0, 1≤k≤m_n, and, as n→∞, bothmax _1≤k≤mn_{a nk}→0 and . It is shown that such convergence, with suitably chosen A_n's and necessarily stable limit laws, holds for all such arrays {α_nk} provided it holds for the special case α_nk=1/n, 1≤k≤n. Necessary and sufficient conditions for such convergence are classical. Conditions are given for the convergence of the moments of the sequence {F_n(x)}, as well as for its convergence in mean. The second part of the paper deals with the almost sure convergence of sums , where a_n≠0, b_n>0, andmax _1≤k≤n a_k/b_n→0. The strong law is said to hold if there are constants A_n for which S_n→0 almost surely. Let N(0)=0 and N(x) equal the number of n≥1 for which b_n/|a_n|<x if x>0. The main result is as follows. If the strong law holds,EN (|X₁|)<∞. If for some 0<p≤2, then the strong law holds with if 1≤p≤2 and A_n=0 if 0<p<1. This extends the results of Heyde and of Jamison, Orey, and Pruitt. The strong law is shown to hold under various conditions imposed on F(x), the coefficients a_n and b_n, and the function N(x).

On the zeros of a class of generalised Dirichlet series-XIV

We prove a general theorem on the zeros of a class of generalised Dirichlet series. We quote the following results as samples. Theorem A.Let 0<θ<1/2and let {a _n }be a sequence of complex numbers satisfying the inequality for N = 1,2,3,…,also for n = 1,2,3,…let α _n be real and |α_n| ≤ C(θ)where C(θ) > 0is a certain (small)constant depending only on θ. Then the number of zeros of the function in the rectangle (1/2-δ⩽σ⩽1/2+δ,T⩽t⩽2T) (where 0<δ<1/2)is ≥C(θ,δ)T logT where C(θ,δ)is a positive constant independent of T provided T ≥T ₀(θ,δ)a large positive constant. Theorem B.In the above theorem we can relax the condition on a _n to and |a_N| ≤ (1/2-θ)^-1.Then the lower bound for the number of zeros in (σ⩾1/3−δ,T⩽t⩽2T)is > C(θ,δ) Tlog T(log logT)^-1.The upper bound for the number of zeros in σ⩾1/3+δ,T⩽t⩽2T) isO(T)provided for every ε > 0.

Inhomogeneous refinement equations

Equations with two time scales (refinement equations or dilation equations) are central to wavelet theory. Several applications also include an inhomogeneous forcing term F(t). We develop here a part of the existence theory for the inhomogeneous refinement equation

On the dependence of the growth rate on the length of the defining relator

Let { } be a sequence of finitely presented groups with generating setA={a1, …, am}, and letRk be the symmetrized set of words over the alphabetA∪A−1 obtained from the defining words and their inverses by all cyclic shifts. We shall assume that the words inRk are cyclically irreducible, and their lengths tend to ∞ ask increases. In the paper, it is proved that ifRk satisfies the small cancellation conditionC'(1/6) and the number of relators increases not very rapidly with increasingk, then the growth rate ψ(Gk) tends to 2m−1 ask→∞.

Completely monotone multisequences, symmetric probabilities and a normal limit theorem

Let G _n,k be the set of all partial completely monotone multisequences of ordern and degreek, i.e., multisequencesc _n(β₁,β₂,…, β _k ), β₁,β₂,…, β_k = 0,1,2,…, β₁+β₂ + … +β _k ≤n,c _n(0,0,…, 0) = 1 and whenever β₀ ≤n - (β₁ + β₂ + … + β _k ) where Δc _n(β₁,β₂,…, β _k ) =c _n(β₁ + 1, β₂,…, β _k )+c _n(β₁,β₂+1,…, β _k )+…+c _n (β₁,β₂,…, β _k +1) -c _n(β₁,β₂,…, β _k ). Further, let Π _n,k be the set of all symmetric probabilities on {0,1,2,…,k} ⁿ . We establish a one-to-one correspondence between the sets G _n,k and Π _n,k and use it to formulate and answer interesting questions about both. Assigning to G _n,k the uniform probability measure, we show that, asn→∞, any fixed section {it{c_n}(β₁,β₂,…, β _k ), 1 ≤ Σβ _i ≤m}, properly centered and normalized, is asymptotically multivariate normal. That is, converges weakly to MVN[0, Σ _m ]; the centering constantsc ₀(β₁, β₂,…, β _k ) and the asymptotic covariances depend on the moments of the Dirichlet (1, 1,…, 1; 1) distribution on the standard simplex inR ^k.
