Growth along a ray of a subharmonic function,having a mass distributed on the negative axis

Let U be a subharmonic function in C with a Riesz mass , distributed on the negative semiaxis without some neighborhood of zero, let and be its order and lower order, and let B(r, U) be the maximum of U(z) for ¦z¦=r. Estimates are obtained for the measure of sets of those values of r 0 for which certain inequalities hold. The following result is typical. LetE = {r:u(re ^l)–cosB<(r,U) > 0}. If < < 1, ¦¦=., then the lower logarithmic density of the set E is at least 1 – /. If < > 1,¦¦ ., then the upper logarithmic density of the set E is at least 1 – /.Translated from Teoriya Funktsii, Funktsional'nyi Analiz i Ikh Prilozheniya, No. 50, pp. 31–38, 1988.     

Reverse Functional Inequalities and Their Applications to Nonlinear Elliptic Boundary Value Problems

We establish some reverse inequalities. We give applications to nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems containing a parameter which have two branches of solutions u (0) and U (>0) of which the first is continuous at the origin and the second increases indefinitely as 0.     

The spectral bound of Schrödinger operators

Let V: R ^N [0, ] be a measurable function, and >0 be a parameter. We consider the behaviour of the spectral bound of the operator 1/2–V as a function of . In particular, we give a formula for the limiting value as , in terms of the integrals of V over subsets of R ^N on which the Laplacian with Dirichlet boundary conditions has prescribed values. We also consider the question whether this limiting value is attained for finite .     

Principal part of resolvent and factorization of an increasing nonanalytic operator-function

Let a selfadjoint operator-valued functionL() be given on the interval [a,b] such thatL(a)0,L(b)0,L()0 (ab), andL() has a certain smoothness (for instance, it satisfies Hölder's condition). It turns out that the spectral theory of the operator-valued functionL() can be reduced to the spectral theory of one operatorZ, the spectrum of which lies on (a, b) and which is similar to a selfadjoint operator. In particular, the factorization takes place:L()=M()(I–Z), where the operator-valued functionM() is invertible on [a, b]. Earlier similar results were known only for analytic operator-valued functions. The authors had to use new methods for the proof of the described theorem. The key moment is the decomposition ofL ^–1() into the sume of its principal and regular parts.     

Ultrafilter translations

We develop a method for extending results about ultrafilters into a more general setting. In this paper we shall be mainly concerned with applications to cardinality logics. For example, assumingV=L, Gödel's Axiom of Constructibility, we prove that if > then the logic with the quantifier there exist many is (,)-compact if and only if either is weakly compact or is singular of cofinality<. As a corollary, for every infinite cardinals and , there exists a (,)-compact non-(,)-compact logic if and only if either < orcf<cf or < is weakly compact.Counterexamples are given showing that the above statements may fail, ifV=L is not assumed.However, without special assumptions, analogous results are obtained for the stronger notion of [,]-compactness.     

Preassigning the boundary of diametrically-complete sets

In a Minkowski space with unit ballS, a setD() is diametrically complete ifD()={. In this paper a method is given for generating such setsD() which contain an arbitrary setX. This technique is then employed to find necessary and sufficient conditions for a setA to lie on the boundary of some suchD() and bounds are given on the acceptable values of .     

Divisible designs and groups

We study (s, k, ₁, ₂)-translation divisible designs with ₁0 in the singular and semi-regular case. Precisely, we describe singular (s, k, ₁, ₂)-TDD's by quasi-partitions of suitable quotient groups or subgroups of their translation groups. For semi-regular (s, k, ₁, ₂)-TDD's (and, more general, for the case ₂>₁) we prove that their translation groups are either Frobenius groups or p-groups of exponent p. Some examples are given for the singular, semi-regular and regular case.     

Resolution of the Symmetric Nonnegative Inverse Eigenvalue Problem for Matrices Subordinate to a Bipartite Graph

There is a symmetric nonnegative matrix A, subordinate to a given bipartite graph G on n vertices, with eigenvalues _{12 n} if and only if, ₁ + _n 0, ₂ + _n-10,..., _m + _{n - m + 1}0, _{m + 1}0,..., _{n - m} 0, in which m is the matching numberof G. Other observations are also made about the symmetric nonnegative inverse eigenvalue problem with respect to a graph     

Transformation de Fourier et temps d'occupation browniens

Summary In this paper, we study oscillatory stochastic integrals of the form where is a non zero parameter andg a square integrable function. We study integrability properties of () and its behavior as a function of , using stochastic calculus techniques: martingale theory, representation of Itô for a random variable of the Wiener space, lemma of Garsia-Rodemich-Rumsey .... We also obtain limit theorems in law related to the variables () based upon an asymptotic version of a theorem of Knight on orthogonal continuous martingales.We consider the random measure, image by the Brownian motion of the unbounded measure 1_[0,] (s)g(s) ds; we prove the existence and the continuity of an occupation time density.Finally, under a stronger integrability condition ong, we show the existence of a density for the law of (), using Malliavin's calculus.     

Minimality of root vectors of operator functions analytic in an angle

We study the minimality of elementsx _h,j,k of canonical systems of root vectors. These systems correspond to the characteristic numbers _k of operator functionsL() analytic in an angle; we assume that operators act in a Hilbert space . In particular, we consider the case whereL()=I+T()c, >0,I is an identity operator,C is a completely continuous operator, (I- C)^–1c for ¦arg¦, 0<<, the operator functionT() is analytic, and T()c for ¦arg¦<. It is proved that, in this case, there exists >0 such that the system of vectorsC ^v x _h,j,k is minimal in for arbitrary positive <1+, provided that ¦_k¦>.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 46, No. 5, pp. 545–566, May, 1994.This research was partially supported by the Ukrainian State Committee of Science and Technology.     

D λ -cycles in 3-cyclable graphs

Letk and be positive integers, andG a 2-connected graph of ordern with minimum degree and independence number. A cycleC ofG is called aD -cycle if every component ofG – V(C) has order smaller than. The graphG isk-cyclable if anyk vertices ofG lie on a common cycle. A previous result of the author is that if k 2, G isk-connected and every connected subgraphH ofG of order has at leastn +k ² + 1/k + 1 – vertices outsideH adjacent to at least one vertex ofH, thenG contains aD -cycle. Here it is conjectured that k-connected can be replaced by k-cyclable, and this is proved fork = 3. As a consequence it is shown that ifn 4 – 6, or ifG is triangle-free andn 8 – 10, thenG contains aD ₃-cycle orG , where denotes a well-known class of nonhamiltonian graphs of connectivity 2. As an analogue of a result of Nash-Williams it follows that ifn 4 – 6 and – 1, thenG is hamiltonian orG . The results are all best possible and compare favorably with recent results on hamiltonicity of graphs which are close to claw-free.     

Equivalent conditions for representing analytic functions by exponential series

Let L() be an entire function of exponential type with simple zeros ₁, ₂, ...; let ¯D be the smallest closed convex set which contains all of the singularities of the function which is associated with L() in the sense of Borel. In [1] there are necessary and sufficient conditions on L() under which a function f(z) which is analytic in ¯D can be represented in D by a Dirichlet series with exponents ₁, ₂, ... We obtain new equivalent conditions on L().Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 20, No. 1, pp. 91–104, July, 1976.     

Factorization of a selfadjoint nonanalytic operator function II. Single spectral zone

We consider a selfadjoint and smooth enough operator-valued functionL() on the segment [a, b]. LetL(a)0,L(b)0, and there exist two positive numbers and such that the inequality |(L()f, f)|< ([a, b] f=1) implies the inequality (L'()f, f)>. Then the functionL() admits a factorizationL()=M()(I-Z) whereM() is a continuous and invertible on [a, b] operator-valued function, and operatorZ is similar to a selfadjoint one. This result was obtained in the first part of the present paper [10] under a stronge conditionL()0 ( [a,b]). For analytic functionL() the result of this paper was obtained in [13].     

Vector measure range duality and factorizations of (<Emphasis Type="Italic">D,p</Emphasis>)-summing operators from Banach function spaces

We characterize the relationship between the space L₁() and the dual L₁() of the space L₁(), where (, ) is a dual pair of vector measures with associated spaces of integrable functions L₁() and L₁() respectively. Since the result is rather restrictive, we introduce the notion of range duality in order to obtain factorizations of operators from Banach function spaces that are dominated by the integration map associated to the vector measure . We obtain in this way a generalization of the Grothendieck-Pietsch Theorem for p-summing operators.*The research was partially supported by MCYT DGI project BFM 2001-2670.**The research was partially supported by MCYT DGI project BFM 2000-1111.     

A variational principle for eigenvalues of pencils of Hermitian matrices

LetH=(A, B) be a pair of HermitianN×N matrices. A complex number is an eigenvalue ofH ifdet(A–B)=0 (we include = ifdetB=0). For nonsingularH (i.e., for which some is not an eigenvalue), we show precisely which eigenvalues can be characterized as _k ⁺ =sup{inf{*A:*B=1,S},SS _k},S _k being the set of subspaces of C ^N of codimensionk–1.Dedicated to the memory of our friend and colleague Branko NajmanResearch supported by NSERC of Canada and the I.W.Killam FoundationProfessor Najman died suddenly while this work was at its final stage.

Conditions for eigenvectors of a selfadjoint operator-function to form a basis

Consider a functionL() defined on an interval of the real axis whose values are linear bounded selfadjoint operators in a Hilbert spaceH. A point ₀ and a vector ₀ H( ₀ 0) are called eigenvalue and eigenvector ofL() ifL() ifL(₀) ₀ = 0. Supposing that the functionL() can be represented as an absolutely convergent Fourier integral, the interval is sufficiently small and the derivative will be positive at some point, it has been proved that all the eigenvectors of the operator-functionL() corresponding to the eigenvalues from the interval form an unconditional basis in the subspace spanned by them.     

On some properties of multiple conjugate trigonometric series

We have obtained an estimate, in terms of partial and mixed moduli, of the continuity of deviation of the Cesáro (C, ) means ( = (₁,...,_n),_i , ₁ > –1, ) of the sequence of rectangular partial sums ofn-multiple (n>1) conjugate trigonometric series from then-multiple truncated conjugate function. This estimate implies the result on them -convergence (1) of (C, ) means (₁ > 0, ) provided that the essential conditions are imposed on the partial moduli of continuity. Finally, it is shown that them -convergence cannot be replaced by ordinary convergence.

On eigenvalues of perturbed quadratic matrix polynomials

Among other results, it is shown that ifC andK are arbitrary complexn×n matrices and if det( ₀ ² I₀ C+K)=0 for some ₀0 (resp. ₀=0), then the Newton diagram of the polynomialt(, ) = det(² I+(1+)C+K expanded in (–₀) and , has at least a point on or below the linex+y=b (resp. has no expanded in (–₀) and , has at least a point on or below the of 0 as an eigenvalue of ₀ ² I+₀ C+K. These are extensions of similar results deu to H. Langer, B. Najman, and K. Veseli proved for diagonable matricesC, and shed light on the eigenvalues of the perturbed quadratic matrix polynomials. Our proofs are independent and seem to be simpler
