Corona problem with data in ideal spaces of sequences

Let E be a Banach lattice on \({\mathbb {Z}}\) with order continuous norm. We show that for any function \(f = \{f_j\}_{j \in {\mathbb {Z}}}\) from the Hardy space \(\mathrm H_{\infty }\left( E \right) \) such that \(\delta \leqslant \Vert f (z)\Vert _E \leqslant 1\) for all z from the unit disk \({\mathbb {D}}\) there exists some solution \(g = \{g_j\}_{j \in {\mathbb {Z}}} \in \mathrm H_{\infty }\left( E' \right) \), \(\Vert g\Vert _{\mathrm H_{\infty }\left( E' \right) } \leqslant C_\delta \) of the Bézout equation \(\sum _j f_j g_j = 1\), also known as the vector-valued corona problem with data in \(\mathrm H_{\infty }\left( E \right) \).     

Determination of cusp forms by central values of Rankin–Selberg <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">L</Emphasis>-functions<Superscript>*</Superscript>

Let f be a fixed holomorphic Hecke eigen cusp form of weight k for \( SL\left( {2,{\mathbb Z}} \right) \), and let \( {\mathcal U} = \left\{ {{u_j}:j \geqslant 1} \right\} \) be an orthonormal basis of Hecke–Maass cusp forms for \( SL\left( {2,{\mathbb Z}} \right) \). We prove an asymptotic formula for the twisted first moment of the Rankin–Selberg L-functions \( L\left( {s,f \otimes {u_j}} \right) \) at \( s = \frac{1}{2} \) as u _j runs over \( {\mathcal U} \). It follows that f is uniquely determined by the central values of the family of Rankin–Selberg L-functions \( \left\{ {L\left( {s,f \otimes {u_j}} \right):{u_j} \in {\mathcal U}} \right\} \).     

On a functional equation by Baak,Boo and Rassias

In Baak et al. (J Math Anal Appl 314(1):150–161, 2006) the authors considered the functional equation

$$\begin{aligned} r f\left( \frac{1}{r}\,\sum _{j=1}^{d}x_j\right)+ & {} \sum _{i(j)\in \{0,1\} \atop \sum _{1\le j\le d} i(j)=\ell }r f\left( \frac{1}{r}\,\sum _{j=1}^d (-1)^{i(j)}x_j\right) \\= & {} \left( {d-1\atopwithdelims ()\ell }-{d-1\atopwithdelims ()\ell -1} +1\right) \sum _{j=1}^{d} f(x_j) \end{aligned}$$

where \(d,\ell \in \mathbb {N}\), \(1<\ell <d/2\) and \(r\in \mathbb {Q}{\setminus }\{0\}\). The authors determined all odd solutions \(f:X\rightarrow Y\) for vector spaces X, Y over \(\mathbb {Q}\). In Oubbi (Can Math Bull 60:173–183, 2017) the author considered the same equation but now for arbitrary real \(r\not =0\) and real vector spaces X, Y. Generalizing similar results from (J Math Anal Appl 314(1):150–161, 2006) he additionally investigates certain stability questions for the equation above, but as for that equation itself for odd approximate solutions only. The present paper deals with the general solution of the equation and the corresponding stability inequality. In particular it is shown that under certain circumstances non-odd solutions of the equation exist.

     

Nonuniform Multiresolution Analysis on Local Fields of Positive Characteristic

A generalization of Mallat’s classic theory of multiresolution analysis (MRA) on local fields of positive characteristic was considered by Jiang et al. (J Math Anal Appl 294:523–532, 2004). In this paper, we present a notion of nonuniform MRA on local field \(K\) of positive characteristic. The associated subspace \(V_0\) of \(L^2(K)\) has an orthonormal basis, a collection of translates of the scaling function \(\varphi \) of the form \(\{ \varphi (x-\lambda ) \}_{ \lambda \in \Lambda }\) where \(\Lambda = \{ 0,r/N \}+ \mathcal{Z}, \,N \ge 1\) is an integer and \(r\) is an odd integer such that \(r\) and \(N\) are relatively prime and \(\mathcal{Z}=\{u(n): n\in \mathbb {N}_{0}\}\). We obtain the necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of associated wavelets and present an algorithm for the construction of nonuniform MRA on local fields starting from a low-pass filter \(m_{0}\) with appropriate conditions.     

The Frobenius problem for repunit numerical semigroups

A repunit is a number consisting of copies of the single digit 1. The set of repunits in base b is \(\big \{\frac{b^n-1}{b-1} ~|~ n\in {\mathbb N}\backslash \{0\}\big \}\). A numerical semigroup S is a repunit numerical semigroup if there exist integers \(b\in {\mathbb N}\backslash \left\{ 0,1\right\} \) and \(n\in {\mathbb N}\backslash \left\{ 0\right\} \) such that \(S=\big \langle \big \{\frac{b^{n+i}-1}{b-1} ~|~ i\in {\mathbb N}\big \}\big \rangle \). In this work, we give formulas for the embedding dimension, the Frobenius number, the type and the genus for a repunit numerical semigroup.     

Restricted partition functions and identities for degrees of syzygies in numerical semigroups

We derive a set of polynomial and quasipolynomial identities for degrees of syzygies in the Hilbert series of numerical semigroup \(\langle d_1,\ldots ,d_m\rangle \), \(m\ge 2\), generated by an arbitrary set of positive integers \(\left\{ d_1, \ldots ,d_m\right\} \), \(\gcd (d_1,\ldots ,d_m)=1\). These identities are obtained by studying the rational representation of the Hilbert series and the quasipolynomial representation of the Sylvester waves in the restricted partition function. In the cases of symmetric semigroups and complete intersections, these identities become more compact; for the latter we find a simple identity relating the degrees of syzygies with elements of generating set \(\left\{ d_1,\ldots ,d_m\right\} \) and give a new lower bound for the Frobenius number.     

The identification problem for complex-valued Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operators in $$L^p(\mathbb {R}^d,\mathbb {C}^N)$$

In this paper we study perturbed Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operators

$$\begin{aligned} \left[ \mathcal {L}_{\infty } v\right] (x)=A\triangle v(x) + \left\langle Sx,\nabla v(x)\right\rangle -B v(x),\,x\in \mathbb {R}^d,\,d\geqslant 2, \end{aligned}$$

for simultaneously diagonalizable matrices \(A,B\in \mathbb {C}^{N,N}\). The unbounded drift term is defined by a skew-symmetric matrix \(S\in \mathbb {R}^{d,d}\). Differential operators of this form appear when investigating rotating waves in time-dependent reaction diffusion systems. We prove under certain conditions that the maximal domain \(\mathcal {D}(A_p)\) of the generator \(A_p\) belonging to the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck semigroup coincides with the domain of \(\mathcal {L}_{\infty }\) in \(L^p(\mathbb {R}^d,\mathbb {C}^N)\) given by

$$\begin{aligned} \mathcal {D}^p_{\mathrm {loc}}(\mathcal {L}_0)=\left\{ v\in W^{2,p}_{\mathrm {loc}}\cap L^p\mid A\triangle v + \left\langle S\cdot ,\nabla v\right\rangle \in L^p\right\} ,\,1<p<\infty . \end{aligned}$$

One key assumption is a new \(L^p\)-dissipativity condition

$$\begin{aligned} |z|^2\mathrm {Re}\,\left\langle w,Aw\right\rangle + (p-2)\mathrm {Re}\,\left\langle w,z\right\rangle \mathrm {Re}\,\left\langle z,Aw\right\rangle \geqslant \gamma _A |z|^2|w|^2\;\forall \,z,w\in \mathbb {C}^N \end{aligned}$$

for some \(\gamma _A>0\). The proof utilizes the following ingredients. First we show the closedness of \(\mathcal {L}_{\infty }\) in \(L^p\) and derive \(L^p\)-resolvent estimates for \(\mathcal {L}_{\infty }\). Then we prove that the Schwartz space is a core of \(A_p\) and apply an \(L^p\)-solvability result of the resolvent equation for \(A_p\). In addition, we derive \(W^{1,p}\)-resolvent estimates. Our results may be considered as extensions of earlier works by Metafune, Pallara and Vespri to the vector-valued complex case.

     

Bumpy metrics on spheres and minimal index growth

The existence of two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on an n-dimensional sphere \(S^n\) with a non-reversible and bumpy Finsler metric was shown independently by Duan and Long [7] and the author [25]. We simplify the proof of this statement by the following observation: If for some \(N \in \mathbb {N}\) all closed geodesics of index \(\le \)N of a non-reversible and bumpy Finsler metric on \(S^n\) are geometrically equivalent to the closed geodesic c, then there is a covering \(c^r\) of minimal index growth, i.e.,

$$\begin{aligned} \mathrm{ind}(c^\mathrm{rm})=m \,\mathrm{ind}(c^r)-(m-1)(n-1), \end{aligned}$$

for all \(m \ge 1\) with \(\mathrm{ind}\left( c^\mathrm{rm}\right) \le N.\) But this leads to a contradiction for \(N =\infty \) as pointed out by Goresky and Hingston [13]. We also discuss perturbations of Katok metrics on spheres of even dimension carrying only finitely many closed geodesics. For arbitrarily large \(L>0\), we obtain on \(S^2\) a metric of positive flag curvature carrying only two closed geodesics of length \(<L\) which do not intersect.

     

Tightness of the maximum likelihood semidefinite relaxation for angular synchronization

Motivated by stochastic 0–1 integer programming problems with an expected utility objective, we study the mixed-integer nonlinear set: \(P = \big \{(w,x)\in \mathbb {R}\times \left\{ 0,1\right\} ^N: w \le f(a'x + d), b'x \le B\big \}\) where N is a positive integer, \(f:\mathbb {R}\mapsto \mathbb {R}\) is a concave function, \(a, b \in \mathbb {R}^N\) are nonnegative vectors, d is a real number and B is a positive real number. We propose a family of inequalities for the convex hull of P by exploiting submodularity of the function \(f(a'x + d)\) over \(\{0,1\}^N\) and the knapsack constraint \(b'x \le B\). Computational effectiveness of the proposed inequalities within a branch-and-cut framework is illustrated using instances of an expected utility capital budgeting problem.     

Local Maximum Modulus Property for Polyanalytic Functions

Let \(\Omega \subset {\mathbb {C}}\) be an open subset and let \({\mathcal {F}}\) be a space of functions defined on \(\Omega \). \({\mathcal {F}}\) is said to have the local maximum modulus property if: for every \(f\in {\mathcal {F}},p_0\in \Omega ,\) and for every sufficiently small domain \(D\subset \Omega ,\) with \(p_0\in D,\) it holds true that \(\max _{z\in \overline{D}}\left| f(z)\right| = \max _{z\in \Sigma \cup \partial D}\left| f(z)\right| ,\) where \(\Sigma \subset \Omega \) denotes the set of points at which \(\left| f\right| \) attains strict local maximum. This property fails for \({\mathcal {F}}=C^{\infty }.\) We verify it however for the set of complex-valued functions whose real and imaginary parts are real analytic. We show by example that the property cannot be improved upon whenever \({\mathcal {F}}\) is the set of n-analytic functions on \(\Omega \), \(n\ge 2,\) in the sense that locality cannot be removed as a condition and independently \(\Sigma \) cannot be removed from the conclusion.     

Reconstruction of the potential of the Sturm–Liouville operator from a finite set of eigenvalues and normalizing constants

It is well known that the potential q of the Sturm–Liouville operator L_y = ?y? + q(x)y on the finite interval [0, π] can be uniquely reconstructed from the spectrum \(\left\{ {{\lambda _k}} \right\}_1^\infty \) and the normalizing numbers \(\left\{ {{\alpha _k}} \right\}_1^\infty \) of the operator L_D with the Dirichlet conditions. For an arbitrary real-valued potential q lying in the Sobolev space \(W_2^\theta \left[ {0,\pi } \right],\theta > - 1\), we construct a function q_N providing a 2N-approximation to the potential on the basis of the finite spectral data set \(\left\{ {{\lambda _k}} \right\}_1^N \cup \left\{ {{\alpha _k}} \right\}_1^N\). The main result is that, for arbitrary τ in the interval ?1 ≤ τ < θ, the estimate \({\left\| {q - \left. {{q_N}} \right\|} \right._\tau } \leqslant C{N^{\tau - \theta }}\) is true, where \({\left\| {\left. \cdot \right\|} \right._\tau }\) is the norm on the Sobolev space \(W_2^\tau \). The constant C depends solely on \({\left\| {\left. q \right\|} \right._\theta }\).     

Scaling Limits for Mixed Kernels

Let \(\mu \) and \(\nu \) be measures supported on \(\left( -1,1\right) \) with corresponding orthonormal polynomials \(\left\{ p_{n}^{\mu }\right\} \) and \( \left\{ p_{n}^{\nu }\right\} \), respectively. Define the mixed kernel

$$\begin{aligned} K_{n}^{{\mu },\nu }\left( x,y\right) =\sum _{j=0}^{n-1}p_{j}^{\mu }\left( x\right) p_{j}^{\nu }\left( y\right) . \end{aligned}$$

We establish scaling limits such as

$$\begin{aligned}&\lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }\frac{\pi \sqrt{1-\xi ^{2}}\sqrt{\mu ^{\prime }\left( \xi \right) \nu ^{\prime }\left( \xi \right) }}{n}K_{n}^{\mu ,\nu }\left( \xi +\frac{a\pi \sqrt{1-\xi ^{2}}}{n},\xi +\frac{b\pi \sqrt{1-\xi ^{2}}}{n}\right) \\&\quad =S\left( \frac{\pi \left( a-b\right) }{2}\right) \cos \left( \frac{\pi \left( a-b\right) }{2}+B\left( \xi \right) \right) , \end{aligned}$$

where \(S\left( t\right) =\frac{\sin t}{t}\) is the sinc kernel, and \(B\left( \xi \right) \) depends on \({\mu },\nu \) and \(\xi \). This reduces to the classical universality limit in the bulk when \(\mu =\nu \). We deduce applications to the zero distribution of \(K_{n}^{{\mu },\nu }\), and asymptotics for its derivatives.

     

A new hyperstability result for the Apollonius equation on a restricted domain and some applications

Let \((G,+)\) be an abelian group equipped with a complete ultrametric d that is invariant (i.e., \(d(x + z, y + z)= d(x, y\)) for \(x, y, z \in G\)), X be a normed space and \(U\subset X\setminus \{0\} \) be a nonempty subset. Under some weak natural assumptions on U and on the function \(\chi :U^3\rightarrow [0,\infty )\), we study new hyperstability results when \(f:U\rightarrow G\) satisfy the following Apollonius inequality

$$\begin{aligned}&d\Big (4f\Big (z-\frac{x+y}{2}\Big )+f(x-y),2f(x-z)+2f(y-z)\Big )\leqslant \chi (x,y,z),\\ {}&\quad x, y, z\in U,\;\;x-z,y-z,x-y,z-\frac{x+y}{2}\in U. \end{aligned}$$

Moreover, we derive some consequences from our main results.

     

On a Fractional $$ p \& q$$ Laplacian Problem with Critical Sobolev–Hardy Exponents

We consider the following fractional \( p \& q\) Laplacian problem with critical Sobolev–Hardy exponents

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} (-\Delta )^{s}_{p} u + (-\Delta )^{s}_{q} u = \frac{|u|^{p^{*}_{s}(\alpha )-2}u}{|x|^{\alpha }}+ \lambda f(x, u) &{} \text{ in } \Omega \\ u=0 &{} \text{ in } \mathbb {R}^{N}{\setminus } \Omega , \end{array} \right. \end{aligned}$$

where \(0<s<1\), \(1\le q<p<\frac{N}{s}\), \((-\Delta )^{s}_{r}\), with \(r\in \{p,q\}\), is the fractional r-Laplacian operator, \(\lambda \) is a positive parameter, \(\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^{N}\) is an open bounded domain with smooth boundary, \(0\le \alpha <sp\), and \(p^{*}_{s}(\alpha )=\frac{p(N-\alpha )}{N-sp}\) is the so-called Hardy–Sobolev critical exponent. Using concentration-compactness principle and the mountain pass lemma due to Kajikiya [23], we show the existence of infinitely many solutions which tend to be zero provided that \(\lambda \) belongs to a suitable range.

     

Sharp Affine and Improved Moser–Trudinger–Adams Type Inequalities on Unbounded Domains in the Spirit of Lions

The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, we prove sharp singular affine Moser–Trudinger inequalities on both bounded and unbounded domains in \({\mathbb {R}}^{n}\). In particular, we will prove the following much sharper affine Moser–Trudinger inequality in the spirit of Lions (Rev Mat Iberoamericana 1(2):45–121, 1985) (see our Theorem 1.4): Let \(\alpha _{n}=n\left( \frac{n\pi ^{\frac{n}{2}}}{\Gamma (\frac{n}{2}+1)}\right) ^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\), \(0\le \beta <n\) and \(\tau >0\). Then there exists a constant \(C=C\left( n,\beta \right) >0\) such that for all \(0\le \alpha \le \left( 1-\frac{\beta }{n}\right) \alpha _{n}\) and \(u\in C_{0}^{\infty }\left( {\mathbb {R}}^{n}\right) \setminus \left\{ 0\right\} \) with the affine energy \(~{\mathcal {E}}_{n}\left( u\right) <1\), we have

$$\begin{aligned} {\displaystyle \int \nolimits _{{\mathbb {R}}^{n}}} \frac{\phi _{n,1}\left( \frac{2^{\frac{1}{n-1}}\alpha }{\left( 1+{\mathcal {E}}_{n}\left( u\right) ^{n}\right) ^{\frac{1}{n-1}}}\left| u\right| ^{\frac{n}{n-1}}\right) }{\left| x\right| ^{\beta }}dx\le C\left( n,\beta \right) \frac{\left\| u\right\| _{n}^{n-\beta }}{\left| 1-{\mathcal {E}}_{n}\left( u\right) ^{n}\right| ^{1-\frac{\beta }{n}}}. \end{aligned}$$

Moreover, the constant \(\left( 1-\frac{\beta }{n}\right) \alpha _{n}\) is the best possible in the sense that there is no uniform constant \(C(n, \beta )\) independent of u in the above inequality when \(\alpha >\left( 1-\frac{\beta }{n}\right) \alpha _{n}\). Second, we establish the following improved Adams type inequality in the spirit of Lions (Theorem 1.8): Let \(0\le \beta <2m\) and \(\tau >0\). Then there exists a constant \(C=C\left( m,\beta ,\tau \right) >0\) such that

$$\begin{aligned} \underset{u\in W^{2,m}\left( {\mathbb {R}}^{2m}\right) , \int _{ {\mathbb {R}}^{2m}}\left| \Delta u\right| ^{m}+\tau \left| u\right| ^{m} \le 1}{\sup } {\displaystyle \int \nolimits _{{\mathbb {R}}^{2m}}} \frac{\phi _{2m,2}\left( \frac{2^{\frac{1}{m-1}}\alpha }{\left( 1+\left\| \Delta u\right\| _{m}^{m}\right) ^{\frac{1}{m-1}}}\left| u\right| ^{\frac{m}{m-1}}\right) }{\left| x\right| ^{\beta }}dx\le C\left( m,\beta ,\tau \right) , \end{aligned}$$

for all \(0\le \alpha \le \left( 1-\frac{\beta }{2m}\right) \beta (2m,2)\). When \(\alpha >\left( 1-\frac{\beta }{2m}\right) \beta (2m,2)\), the supremum is infinite. In the above, we use

$$\begin{aligned} \phi _{p,q}(t)=e^{t}- {\displaystyle \sum \limits _{j=0}^{j_{\frac{p}{q}}-2}} \frac{t^{j}}{j!},\,\,\,j_{\frac{p}{q}}=\min \left\{ j\in {\mathbb {N}} :j\ge \frac{p}{q}\right\} \ge \frac{p}{q}. \end{aligned}$$

The main difficulties of proving the above results are that the symmetrization method does not work. Therefore, our main ideas are to develop a rearrangement-free argument in the spirit of Lam and Lu (J Differ Equ 255(3):298–325, 2013; Adv Math 231(6): 3259–3287, 2012), Lam et al. (Nonlinear Anal 95: 77–92, 2014) to establish such theorems. Third, as an application, we will study the existence of weak solutions to the biharmonic equation

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{l} \Delta ^{2}u+V(x)u=f(x,u)\text { in }{\mathbb {R}}^{4}\\ u\in H^{2}\left( {\mathbb {R}}^{4}\right) ,~u\ge 0 \end{array} \right. , \end{aligned}$$

where the nonlinearity f has the critical exponential growth.

     

On behavior of Fourier coefficients by Walsh system

The paper proves that for any ε > 0 there exists ameasurable set E ? [0, 1] with measure |E| > 1 ? ε such that for each f ∈ L¹[0, 1] there is a function \(\tilde f \in {L^1}\left[ {0,1} \right]\) coinciding with f on E whose Fourier-Walsh series converges to \(\tilde f\) in L¹[0, 1]-norm, and the sequence \(\left\{ {\left| {{c_k}\left( {\tilde f} \right)} \right|} \right\}_{n = 0}^\infty \) is monotonically decreasing, where \(\left\{ {{c_k}\left( {\tilde f} \right)} \right\}\) is the sequence of Fourier-Walsh coefficients of \(\left\{ {\left| {{c_k}\left( {\tilde f} \right)} \right|} \right\}_{n = 0}^\infty \).     

Random Walks in the Hyperbolic Plane and the Minkowski Question Mark Function

Consider \(G=SL_2(\mathbb {Z})/\{\pm I\}\) acting on the complex upper half plane H by \(h_M(z)=\frac{az\,+\,b}{cz\,+\,d}\) for \(M \in G\). Let \(D=\{z \in H: |z|\ge 1, |\mathfrak {R}(z)|\le 1/2\}\). We consider the set \({\mathcal {E}} \subset G\) with the nine elements M, different from the identity, such that \(\mathrm{tr\,}(MM^T)\le 3\). We equip the tiling of H defined by \(\mathbb {D}=\{h_M(D){:}\, M \in G\}\) with a graph structure where the neighbours are defined by \(h_M(D) \cap h_{M'}(D) \ne \emptyset \), equivalently \(M^{-1}M' \in {\mathcal {E}}\). The present paper studies several Markov chains related to the above structure. We show that the simple random walk on the above graph converges a.s. to a point X of the real line with the same distribution of \(S_2 W^{S_1}\), where \(S_1,S_2,W\) are independent with \(\Pr (S_i=\pm 1)=1/2\) and where W is valued in (0, 1) with distribution \(\Pr (W<w)=\mathbf ? (w)\). Here \(\mathbf ? \) is the Minkowski function. If \(K_1, K_2, \ldots \) are i.i.d with distribution \(\Pr (K_i=n)= 1/2^n\) for \(n=1,2,\ldots \), then \(W= \frac{1}{K_1+\frac{1}{K_2+\ldots }}\): this known result (Isola in Appl Math 5:1067–1090, 2014) is derived again here.     

Estimates for large solutions of a quasilinear elliptic equation

Let \(\Omega \) be a bounded smooth domain of \(R^{n}\). We study the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions to the equation \(\triangle u-|Du|^{q}=f(u)\) in \(\Omega , 1<q<2,\) which satisfy the boundary condition \(u(x)\rightarrow \infty \) as \(x\rightarrow \partial \Omega \). These solutions are called large or blowup solutions. Near the boundary we give lower and upper bounds for the ratio \(\psi (u)/\delta \), where \(\psi (u) = \int _{u}^{\infty }1/\sqrt{2F}dt\), \(F'=f\), \(\delta =dist(x,\partial \Omega )\) or for the ratio \(u/\delta ^{(2-q)/(1-q)}\). When in particular the ratio \(f/F^{q/2}\)is regular at infinity, we find again known results (Bandle and Giarrusso, in Adv Diff Equ 1, 133–150, 1996; Giarrusso, in Comptes Rendus de l’Acad Sci 331, 777–782 2000).     

Spectrality of infinite convolutions with three-element digit sets

Let \(0< \rho <1\) and let \(\{a_n, b_n\}_{n=1}^\infty \) be a sequence of integers with bounded from upper and lower. Associated with them there exists a unique Borel probability measure \(\mu _{\rho , \{0, a_n, b_n\}}\) generated by the following infinite convolution product

$$\begin{aligned} \mu _{\rho , \{0, a_n, b_n\}}=\delta _{\rho \{0, a_1, b_1\}} *\delta _{\rho ^2 \{0, a_2, b_2\}} *\delta _{\rho ^3 \{0, a_3, b_3\}} *\cdots \end{aligned}$$

in the weak convergence, where \(\delta _E=\frac{1}{\# E}\sum _{e \in E} \delta _e\) and \(\hbox {gcd}(a_n, b_n)=1\) for all \(n \in {{\mathbb {N}}}\). In this paper, we show that \(L^2(\mu _{\rho , \{0, a_n, b_n\}})\) admits an exponential orthonormal basis if and only if \(\rho ^{-1} \in 3{{\mathbb {N}}}\) and  \(\{a_n, b_n\} \equiv \{1, 2\} \ (\mathrm {mod} \ 3)\) for all \(n \in {{\mathbb {N}}}\).

     

$$L^{\infty }$$-norm and energy quantization for the planar Lane–Emden problem with large exponent

For any smooth bounded domain \(\Omega \subset {\mathbb {R}}^2\), we consider positive solutions to

$$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \begin{array}{lr}-\Delta u= u^p &{} \text{ in } \Omega \\ u=0 &{} \text{ on } \partial \Omega \end{array}\right. \end{aligned}$$

which satisfy the uniform energy bound

$$\begin{aligned}p\Vert \nabla u\Vert _{\infty }\le C\end{aligned}$$

for \(p>1\). We prove convergence to \(\sqrt{e}\) as \(p\rightarrow +\infty \) of the \(L^{\infty }\)-norm of any solution. We further deduce quantization of the energy to multiples of \(8\pi e\), thus completing the analysis performed in De Marchis et al. (J Fixed Point Theory Appl 19:889–916, 2017).
