A-stable spline-collocation methods of multivalue type

In this paper the general classV of spline-collocation methods presented by Mülthei is investigated. The methods ofV approximate solutions of first order initial value problems. ClassV contains as subclass the methods of so-called multivalue type, and in particular contains the generalized singly-implicit methods treated by Butcher.Any multivalue type representativeU V yields a matrix valued function corresponding toU, which characterizes the region of absolute stability ofU. If a sequence (U()) of multivalue type representatives ofV tending to some singlevalue type representative V is considered, it can easily be seen by the structure of , that the sequence of the greatest eigenvalues of the (.,) tends to the stability function corresponding to . This fact allows one to construct one-parameter families of A-stable methods of multivalue type.     

Positivity notions for coherent sheaves over compact complex spaces

LetX be a reduced compact complex space, X a coherent sheaf, andV=V() its associated linear fiber space. LetV _R be the reduction ofV, letA be the analytic set inX over which is not locally-free, and letV be the closure inV _R ofV _R |(X–A). is (primary) weakly positive if the zerosection ofV (V) is exceptional. is (primary) cohomologically positive if, for any coherent sheaf X, for all 0,k1. Then is (primary) weakly positive if and only if is (primary) cohomologically positive.LetX be a normal irreducible compact complex space. ThenX is Moishezon if and only if it carries a primary weakly positive, and hence primary cohomologically positive, coherent sheaf.Several other positivity notions are also discussed.

Summary The time dependent solution is determined for the state probabilities and for some characteristic values of queuing systems with a single server, an infinite number of waiting places, exponentially distributed inter-arrival and service times, and any initial state. The state probabilitiesP _v (), i.e. the probabilities for units in the system at time, are given in the form of integrals in which modifiedBessel functions of the first kind occur. Integrating the state probalityP ₀() over leads to the meanL() and the varianceV() of the number of units in the system.For<1 and the systems tend to a steady state (for which the solution is known); for1 and we haveP _v ()0 for all, L(),V().If>1 asymptotic expansions for large are found givingL() andV() proportional to. If=1 simple approximate formulas for large are obtained givingL() and the standard deviation() proportional to .

Classification of pairs of subspaces in scalar product spaces

Up to the classification of Hermitian forms a classification has been given of triplesP=(V_F; U₁, U₂), consisting of a finite dimensional vector space V over a field of characteristic 2 with a symmetric, or a skew-symmetric, or Hermitian form F and two subspaces U₁, U₂. Two triplesP andP are identified with each other if there exists an isometry V_f V_f such that (U_i)=U_i, i=1, 2.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 42, No. 4, pp. 549–554, April, 1990.     

Connections between the approximative and spectral properties of metric automorphisms

To each automorphism T of a Lebesgue space (X, @#@) there corresponds a unitary operator U_T in the space L²(X,), defined by the formula (U_Tf) (x) = f (Tx),f L²(X,), x X. In this note we investigate the special properties of the operator U_T as a function of the rate of approximation of the automorphism T by periodic transformations (for the definition of the rate of approximation of a metric automorphism see [1]).Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 13, No. 3, pp.403–409, March, 1973.     

Group automorphisms with finite entropy

A compact metrie abelian group X with the normalized Haar measure is a Lebesgue probability space. A group automorphism ofX is an invertible measure preserving transformation of the probability space. This paper is to show that if the entropy of is finite, then there exist totally disconnected subgroupsH andN, a finite-dimensional subgroupS and a subgroupT satisfying the conditions: (i)H, N, S andT are strictly -invariant, (ii)N=HST, (iii)h(| _N )=0, (iv) ifS/N is non-trivial then it is a finite-dimensional solenoidal group with condition (**) (see the definition in §1), (v) ifT/N is non-trivial then it is connected and locally connected, such thatX/N splits into a direct sumX/N=H/NS/NT/N. This result characterizes the structure of finite entropy automorphisms.     

On Ω-closed sets and Ωs-closed sets in topological spaces

Commutativity of operators on the lattice of existence varieties

In a previous paper the authors introduced seven complete congruences on the lattice _ev(I of e-varieties of regular semigroups of the form _P :U _P VPU=PV, whereP is drawn from a small set of e-varieties: left zero, right zero, rectangular bands, groups, left groups, right groups and completely simple semigroups. Four new complete congruences are introduced here of the form _P :U _P VPU=PV, whereP is one of the following classes of regular semigroups: left monoids, right monoids, monoids, idempotent generated semigroups. For each complete congruence on _ev(I) and eachU_ev(I), the -class ofU is an interval [U ,U ] so that there is associated with each such congruence an idempotent operatorUU on _ev(I). This paper establishes numerous results concerning the commutativity of operators of this form.This work was supported in part by NSERC Grant 4044.     

Onp-hyponormal operators for 0<p<1

The distance formula Tt-I)^–1=[Dist(, (T)]^–1, (T), for hyponormal operators, is generalized top-hyponormal operators for 0<p<1. Several other results involving eigenspaces ofU and |T|, the joint point spectrum, and the spectral radius are also otained, where |T|=(T ^* T)^1/2 andU is the unitary operator in the polar decomposition of thep-hyponormal operatorT=U|T|.     

A spectral mapping theorem for scalar-type spectral operators in locally convex spaces

LetT be a continuous scalar-type spectral operator defined on a quasi-complete locally convex spaceX, that is,T=fdP whereP is an equicontinuous spectral measure inX andf is aP-integrable function. It is shown that (T) is precisely the closedP-essential range of the functionf or equivalently, that (T) is equal to the support of the (unique) equicontinuous spectral measureQ ^* defined on the Borel sets of the extended complex plane ^* such thatQ ^*({})=0 andT=zdQ _*(z). This result is then used to prove a spectral mapping theorem; namely, thatg((T))=(g(T)) for anyQ ^*-integrable functiong: ^{* *} which is continuous on (T). This is an improvement on previous results of this type since it covers the case wheng((T))/{} is an unbounded set in a phenomenon which occurs often for continuous operatorsT defined in non-normable spacesX.     

The singularH 2,2-invariant quartic surfaces in ℙ3

AnH _2,2-invariant quartic surface in ₃ is a quartic surface in ₃ invariant under the Heisenberg groupH _2,2 of level (2, 2), the family ofH _2,2-invariant quartic surfaces is parametrized by ₄. For each ₄, the corresponding quartic surfaceX will be a Kummer surface, ifX is singular. The equation for { = 0} ₄ parametrizing all Kummer surfaces is well known. We find another more symmetric form (with respect to a 5-dimensional representation of the symmetric group S₆) for this equation.The aim of this note is to describe all singularH _2,2-invariant quartic surfaces in ₃.

Complemented Topologies on Abelian Groups

A topology on a group G is complemented if there exists an indiscrete topology ' on G such that UV={0} for suitable neighborhoods of zero U and V in the topologies and . The authors give a complementation test for an arbitrary topology. Locally compact groups with complemented topologies have been described. A group all of whose continuous homomorphic images are complete is proved to be compact. A family of 2 topologies that are pairwise complementary to one another is defined for an arbitrary group.

We study uniqueness property for the Cauchy problemxV(x), x(0)=, whereVR ⁿR is a locally Lipschitz continuous, quasiconvex function (i.e. the sublevel sets {Vc} are convex) and V(x) is the generalized gradient ofV atx. We prove that if 0V(x) forV(x)b, then the set of initial data {V=b} yielding non uniqueness of solution in a geometric sense has (n–1)-dimensional Hausdorff measure zero in {V=b}.

The Busy Period of the M/GI/∞ Queue

An equation for the distribution Z() of the duration T of the busy period in a stationary M/GI/ service system is constructed from first principles. Two scenarios are examined, being distinguished by the half-plane Re()>₀ for some ₀0 in which the generic service time random variable S, always assumed to have a finite mean E(S), has an analytic Laplace–Stieltjes transform E(e^–S ). If ₀<0 then E(e^–T ) is analytic in a half-plane (₁,), where ₀₁<0 and ₁ is determined by the distribution of S; then for any 0<s<|₁|.When ₀=0, E(e^–T ) is analytic in (0,), and now more is known about T. Inequalities on the tail () are used to show that for any 1, E(T ) is finite if and only if E(S ) is finite. It follows that the point process consisting of the starting epochs of busy periods is long range dependent if and only if E(S ²)=, in which case it has Hurst index equal to [frac12](3–), where is the moment index of S.If also the tail (x)=Pr{Sx} of the service time distribution satisfies the subexponential density condition ₀ ^x (x–u) (u)du/ (x)2E(S) as x, then (x)/ (x)e^E(S), where is the arrival rate.
