Concave univalent functions and Dirichlet finite integral

The article deals with the class consisting of non‐vanishing functions f that are analytic and univalent in such that the complement is a convex set, and the angle at ∞ is less than or equal to for some . Related to this class is the class of concave univalent mappings in , but this differs from with the standard normalization A number of properties of these classes are discussed which includes an easy proof of the coefficient conjecture for settled by Avkhadiev et al. 3 . Moreover, another interesting result connected with the Yamashita conjecture on Dirichlet finite integral for is also presented.     

The Radon‐Nikodym property,generalized bounded variation and the average range

A generalized bounded variation characterization of Banach spaces possessing the Radon‐Nikodym property is given in terms of the average range. We prove that a Banach space X has the Radon‐Nikodym property if and only if for each function of generalized bounded variation on [0, 1], the average range is a nonempty set at almost all .     

On the extremal Betti numbers of the binomial edge ideal of closed graphs

We study the equality of the extremal Betti numbers of the binomial edge ideal and those of its initial ideal for a closed graph G. We prove that in some cases there is a unique extremal Betti number for and as a consequence there is a unique extremal Betti number for and these extremal Betti numbers are equal.     

Cohomological characterisation of monads

Let X be an n‐dimensional smooth projective variety with an n‐block collection , with , of coherent sheaves on X that generate the bounded derived category . We give a cohomological characterisation of torsion‐free sheaves on X that are the cohomology of monads of the form where . We apply the result to get a cohomological characterisation when X is the projective space, the smooth hyperquadric or the Fano threefold V₅. We construct a family of monads on a Segre variety and apply our main result to this family.     

Spectrality of certain self‐affine measures on the generalized spatial Sierpinski gasket

The self‐affine measure corresponding to a upper or lower triangle expanding matrix M and the digit set in the space is supported on the generalized spatial Sierpinski gasket, where are the standard basis of unit column vectors in . We consider in this paper the existence of orthogonal exponentials on the Hilbert space , i.e., the spectrality of . Such a property is directly connected with the entries of M and is not completely determined. For this generalized spatial Sierpinski gasket, we present a method to deal with the spectrality or non‐spectrality of . As an application, the spectral property of a class of such self‐affine measures are clarified. The results here generalize the corresponding results in a simple manner.     

Integral means and Dirichlet integral for analytic functions

For normalized analytic functions f in the unit disk, the estimate of the integral means is important in certain problems in fluid dynamics, especially when the functions are non‐vanishing in the punctured unit disk . We consider the problem of finding the extremal function f which maximizes the integral means for f belong to certain classes of analytic functions related to sufficient conditions of univalence. In addition, for certain subclasses of the class of normalized univalent and analytic functions, we solve the extremal problem for the Yamashita functional where denotes the area of the image of under . The first problem was originally discussed by Gromova and Vasil'ev in 2002 while the second by Yamashita in 1990.     

Equimatchable Graphs on Surfaces

A graph G is equimatchable if each matching in G is a subset of a maximum‐size matching and it is factor critical if has a perfect matching for each vertex v of G. It is known that any 2‐connected equimatchable graph is either bipartite or factor critical. We prove that for 2‐connected factor‐critical equimatchable graph G the graph is either or for some n for any vertex v of G and any minimal matching M such that is a component of . We use this result to improve the upper bounds on the maximum number of vertices of 2‐connected equimatchable factor‐critical graphs embeddable in the orientable surface of genus g to if and to if . Moreover, for any nonnegative integer g we construct a 2‐connected equimatchable factor‐critical graph with genus g and more than vertices, which establishes that the maximum size of such graphs is . Similar bounds are obtained also for nonorientable surfaces. In the bipartite case for any nonnegative integers g, h, and k we provide a construction of arbitrarily large 2‐connected equimatchable bipartite graphs with orientable genus g, respectively nonorientable genus h, and a genus embedding with face‐width k. Finally, we prove that any d‐degenerate 2‐connected equimatchable factor‐critical graph has at most vertices, where a graph is d‐degenerate if every its induced subgraph contains a vertex of degree at most d.     

Solvability near the characteristic set for a class of first‐order linear partial differential operators

In this work we deal with solvability of first‐order differential equations in the form , where L is a planar complex vector field, elliptic everywhere except along a simple closed curve Σ on which it is tangent and vanishes of order . In contrast with the local solvability, it is shown that the zero order term p has influence in the solvability in a full neighborhood of Σ.     

Gonality of complete graphs with a small number of omitted edges

Let be the complete metric graph on d vertices. We compute the gonality of graphs obtained from by omitting edges forming a , or general configurations of at most edges. We also investigate if these graphs can be lifted to curves with the same gonality. We lift the former graphs and the ones obtained by removing up to edges not forming a K ₃ using models of plane curves with certain singularities. We also study the gonality when removing edges not forming a K ₃. We use harmonic morphism to lift these graphs to curves with the same gonality because in this case plane singular models can no longer be used due to a result of Coppens and Kato.     

Microlocal analysis on wonderful varieties. Regularized traces and global characters

Let be a connected reductive complex algebraic group with split real form . Consider a strict wonderful ‐variety X equipped with its σ‐equivariant real structure, and let X be the corresponding real locus. Further, let E be a real differentiable G‐vector bundle over X . In this paper, we introduce a distribution character for the regular representation of G on the space of smooth sections of E given in terms of the spherical roots of , and show that on a certain open subset of G of transversal elements it is locally integrable and given by a sum over fixed points.     

Infinitely many homoclinic solutions for a second‐order Hamiltonian system

In this paper, we study the homoclinic solutions of the following second‐order Hamiltonian system where , and . Applying the symmetric Mountain Pass Theorem, we establish a couple of sufficient conditions on the existence of infinitely many homoclinic solutions. Our results significantly generalize and improve related ones in the literature. For example, is not necessary to be uniformly positive definite or coercive; through is still assumed to be superquadratic near , it is not assumed to be superquadratic near .     

On rotationally starlike logharmonic mappings

This paper considers the class of all mappings of the form where h and g are analytic in the unit disk U, normalized by , and such that is logharmonic with respect to an analytic self‐map a of U. A distortion estimate and the radius of starlikeness are obtained for this class. Additionally, a solution to the problem of minimizing the moments of order p over the class is found, as well as an estimate for arclength.     

On semi‐classical d‐orthogonal polynomials

In this paper a general theory of semi‐classical d‐orthogonal polynomials is developed. We define the semi‐classical linear functionals by means of a distributional equation , where Φ and Ψ are matrix polynomials. Several characterizations for these semi‐classical functionals are given in terms of the corresponding d‐orthogonal polynomials sequence. They involve a quasi‐orthogonality property for their derivatives and some finite‐type relations.     

Duality for frames in Krein spaces

A J‐frame for a Krein space is in particular a frame for (in the Hilbert space sense). But it is also compatible with the indefinite inner‐product of , meaning that it determines a pair of maximal uniformly definite subspaces, an analogue to the maximal dual pair associated with an orthonormal basis in a Krein space. This work is devoted to study duality for J‐frames in Krein spaces. Also, tight and Parseval J‐frames are defined and characterized.     

Flat connections and cohomology invariants

The main goal of this article is to construct some geometric invariants for the topology of the set of flat connections on a principal G‐bundle . Although the characteristic classes of principal bundles are trivial when , their classical Chern–Weil construction can still be exploited to define a homomorphism from the set of homology classes of maps to the cohomology group , where S is null‐cobordant ‐manifold, once a G‐invariant polynomial p of degree r on is fixed. For , this gives a homomorphism . The map is shown to be globally gauge invariant and furthermore it descends to the moduli space of flat connections , modulo cohomology with integer coefficients. The construction is also adapted to complex manifolds. In this case, one works with the set of connections with vanishing (0, 2)‐part of the curvature, and the Dolbeault cohomology. Some examples and applications are presented.     

Two lower bounds for the Stanley depth of monomial ideals

Let be two monomial ideals of the polynomial ring . In this paper, we provide two lower bounds for the Stanley depth of . On the one hand, we introduce the notion of lcm number of , denoted by , and prove that the inequality holds. On the other hand, we show that , where denotes the order dimension of the lcm lattice of . We show that I and satisfy Stanley's conjecture, if either the lcm number of I or the order dimension of the lcm lattice of I is small enough. Among other results, we also prove that the Stanley–Reisner ideal of a vertex decomposable simplicial complex satisfies Stanley's conjecture.     

Eigenvalues of the k‐th power of a graph

The k‐th power of a graph G, denoted by , is a graph with the same set of vertices as G such that two vertices are adjacent in if and only if their distance in G is at most k. In this paper, we give the bounds on the spectral radius of and . The Nordhaus–Gaddum‐type inequality for the spectral radius of the graph is also presented. Moreover, we obtain an upper bound on the energy of the second power of graphs.     

On Fejér's inequalities for the Legendre polynomials

We present various inequalities for the sum where denotes the Legendre polynomial of degree k . Among others we prove that the inequalities hold for all and . The constant factors 2/5 and are sharp. This refines a classical result of Fejér, who proved in 1908 that is nonnegative for all and .     

Note on Nikodym maximal in the variable Lebesgue spaces

In this paper we consider the k‐plane Nikodym maximal estimates in the variable Lebesgue spaces . We first formulate the problem about the boundedness of the k‐plane Nikodym maximal and show that the maximal estimate in is equivalent to that in for . So, the optimal Nikodym maximal estimate in follows from Cordoba's estimate.     

Bohr radius for locally univalent harmonic mappings

We consider the class of all sense‐preserving harmonic mappings of the unit disk , where h and g are analytic with , and determine the Bohr radius if any one of the following conditions holds:

• 1. h is bounded in .
• 2. h satisfies the condition in with .
• 3. both h and g are bounded in .
• 4. h is bounded and .

We also consider the problem of determining the Bohr radius when the supremum of the modulus of the dilatation of f in is strictly less than 1. In addition, we determine the Bohr radius for the space of analytic Bloch functions and the space of harmonic Bloch functions. The paper concludes with two conjectures.
