On the dynamics of the singularly perturbed rational maps

In this paper, we study the dynamics of the family of rational maps fλ,（z） = zn - λ/zm, n ≥2, m ≥ 1,λ ∈ C. We construct an example of buried Sierpinski curve Julia set in this family. We also give an estimate of the location of bifurcation locus of fλ.     

Differential sobordination and Bazilevič functions

LetM(z)=z ⁿ +…,N(z)=z ⁿ +… be analytic in the unit disc Δ and let λ(z)=N(z)/zN′(z). The classical result of Sakaguchi-Libera shows that Re(M′(z)/N′(z))<0 implies Re(M(z)/N(z))>0 in Δ whenever Re(λ(z))>0 in Δ. This can be expressed in terms of differential subordination as follows: for anyp analytic in Δ, withp(0)=1,p(z)+λ(z)zp′(z)<1+z/1−z impliesp(z)<1+z/1−z, for Reλ(z)>0,z∈Δ. In this paper we determine different type of general conditions on λ(z),h(z) and ϕ(z) for which one hasp(z)+λ(z)zp′(z)<h(z) impliesp(z)<ϕ(z)<h(z) z∈Δ. Then we apply the above implication to obtain new theorems for some classes of normalized analytic funotions. In particular we give a sufficient condition for an analytic function to be starlike in Δ.     

Properties of generalised juxtapolynomials

GivenF(z),f ₁(z), ..,f _n(z) defined on a finite point setE, and givenB — the set of generalised polynomials Σ _k ^=1/n a _kf_k(z) — the definition of a juxtapolynomial is extended in the following manner: for a fixedλ(0<λ≦1),f(z) εB is called a generalizedλ-weak juxtapolynomial toF(z) onE if and only if there exists nog(z) εB for whichg(z)=F(z) wheneverf(z)=F(z) and |g(z)−F(z) |<λ|f(z)−F(z)| wheneverf(z)≠F(z). The properties of suchf(z) are investigated with particular attention given to the real case. This note is an extension of a part of the author’s M.Sc. Thesis under the supervision of Prof. B. Grünbaum to whom the author wishes to express his sincerest appreciation. The author also wishes to thank Dr. J. Lindenstrauss for his valuable remarks in the preparation of this paper.     

Anharmonic Oscillators in the Complex Plane, $\boldsymbol{\mathcal{PT}}$-symmetry,and Real Eigenvalues

For integers m ≥ 3 and 1 ≤ ℓ ≤ m − 1, we study the eigenvalue problems − u ^″(z) + [( − 1)^ℓ(iz) ^m  − P(iz)]u(z) = λu(z) with the boundary conditions that u(z) decays to zero as z tends to infinity along the rays argz=-\fracp2±\frac(l+1)pm+2\arg z=-\frac{\pi}{2}\pm \frac{(\ell+1)\pi}{m+2} in the complex plane, where P is a polynomial of degree at most m − 1. We provide asymptotic expansions of the eigenvalues λ _n . Then we show that if the eigenvalue problem is PT\mathcal{PT}-symmetric, then the eigenvalues are all real and positive with at most finitely many exceptions. Moreover, we show that when gcd(m,l)=1\gcd(m,\ell)=1, the eigenvalue problem has infinitely many real eigenvalues if and only if one of its translations or itself is PT\mathcal{PT}-symmetric. Also, we will prove some other interesting direct and inverse spectral results.     

Dynamical convergence of polynomials to the exponential

In this paper we investigate the relationship between the dynamics of the polynomials maps p_d,λ(z)=(1+z/d)^d and the exponential family E_λ(z)=λc^z. We show that the hyperbolic components of the parameter planes for the polynomials converge to those for the exponential family as the degree d tends to infinity. We also show that certain "hairs"in the parameter plane for the exponential are limits of correspondings external rays for the polynomial families. For parameter values on the hairs, the Julia sets for the corresponding exponentials are the entire plane whereas, for polynomial parameters on the external rays, the Julia sets are Cantor sets     

Integral Equations and Operator Theory

A complex number λ is an extended eigenvalue of an operator A if there is a nonzero operator X such that AX = λ XA. We characterize the set of extended eigenvalues, which we call extended point spectrum, for operators acting on finite dimensional spaces, finite rank operators, Jordan blocks, and C₀ contractions. We also describe the relationship between the extended eigenvalues of an operator A and its powers. As an application, we show that the commutant of an operator A coincides with that of Aⁿ, n ≥ 2, n ∈ N if the extended point spectrum of A does not contain any n–th root of unity other than 1. The converse is also true if either A or A^* has trivial kernel.     

Inverse Scattering at Fixed Energy in de Sitter�CReissner�CNordstr?m Black Holes

In this paper, we consider massless Dirac fields propagating in the outer region of de Sitter–Reissner–Nordstr?m black holes. We show that the metric of such black holes is uniquely determined by the partial knowledge of the corresponding scattering matrix S(λ) at a fixed energy λ ≠ 0. More precisely, we consider the partial wave scattering matrices S(λ, n) (here λ ≠ 0 is the fixed energy and n ? \mathbbN^*{n \in \mathbb{N}^{*}} denotes the angular momentum) defined as the restrictions of the full scattering matrix on a well chosen basis of spin-weighted spherical harmonics. We prove that the mass M, the square of the charge Q ² and the cosmological constant Λ of a dS-RN black hole (and thus its metric) can be uniquely determined from the knowledge of either the transmission coefficients T(λ, n), or the reflexion coefficients R(λ, n) (resp. L(λ, n)), for all n ? L{n \in {\mathcal{L}}} where L{\mathcal{L}} is a subset of \mathbbN^*{\mathbb{N}^{*}} that satisfies the Müntz condition ?_{n ? L}\frac1n = +￥{\sum_{n \in{\mathcal{L}}}\frac{1}{n} = +\infty} . Our main tool consists in complexifying the angular momentum n and in studying the analytic properties of the “unphysical” scattering matrix S(λ, z) in the complex variable z. We show, in particular, that the quantities \frac1T(l,z){\frac{1}{T(\lambda,z)}}, \fracR(l,z)T(l,z){\frac{R(\lambda,z)}{T(\lambda,z)}} and \fracL(l,z)T(l,z){\frac{L(\lambda,z)}{T(\lambda,z)}} belong to the Nevanlinna class in the region ${\{z \in \mathbb{C}, Re(z) > 0 \}}${\{z \in \mathbb{C}, Re(z) > 0 \}} for which we have analytic uniqueness theorems at our disposal. Eventually, as a by-product of our method, we obtain reconstruction formulae for the surface gravities of the event and cosmological horizons of the black hole which have an important physical meaning in the Hawking effect.     

à propos de l’indice de composition des nombres

 We define the index of composition λ(n) of an integer n ⩾ 2 as λ(n) = log n/log γ(n), where γ(n) stands for the product of the primes dividing n, and first establish that λ and 1/λ both have asymptotic mean value 1. We then establish that, given any ɛ > 0 and any integer k ⩾ 2, there exist infinitely many positive integers n such that . Considering the distribution function F(z,x) := #{n < x : λ(n) > z}, we prove that, given 1 < z < 2 and ɛ > 0, then, if x is sufficiently large,

Completeness of the system {z^λn} in L^2[B,α0]

Let B be an unbounded domain located outside an angle domain with vertex at the origin, A ={λn}（n = 1,2,...） be a sequence of complex numbers satisfying sup ｜ arg（λn）｜ 〈 α 〈 π/2 and denote by M（∧） = {z^λ, λ ∈ ∧} the corresponding system of functions z^λ（λ∈∧）. Let α0（z） be a weight function defined on B. We obtain a completeness theorem for the system M（∧） in the Hilbert space L^2 [B, α0].

Topology of spaces of hyperbolic polynomials and combinatorics of resonances

In this paper we study the topology of the strata, indexed by number partitions λ, in the natural stratification of the space of monic hyperbolic polynomials of degreen. We prove stabilization theorems for removing an independent block or an independent relation in λ. We also prove contractibility of the ‘one-point compactifications of the strata indexed by a large class of number partitions, including λ=(k ^m , 1 ^r ), form≥2. Furthermore, we study the maps between the homology groups of the strata, induced by imposing additional relations (resonances) on the number partition λ, or by merging some of the blocks of λ.     

Hausdorff dimension of Julia set of a polynomial with a Siegel disk

Let f(z) = e2πiθz(1 z/d)d,θ∈R\Q be a polynomial. Ifθis an irrational number of bounded type, it is easy to see that f(z) has a Siegel disk centered at 0. In this paper, we will show that the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set of f(z) satisfies Dim(J(f))<2.     

On a nontraditional method of approximation

We study the approximation of functions f(z) that are analytic in a neighborhood of zero by finite sums of the form H _n (z) = H _n (h, f, {λ _k }; z) = Σ _k=1 ⁿ λ _k h(λ _k z), where h is a fixed function that is analytic in the unit disk |z| < 1 and the numbers λ _k (which depend on h, f, and n) are calculated by a certain algorithm. An exact value of the radius of the convergence H _n (z) → f(z), n → ∞, and an order-sharp estimate for the rate of this convergence are obtained; an application to numerical analysis is given.     

Directional derivatives for the value-function in semi-infinite programming

For the problemP(λ): Maximizec ^T z subject toz∈Z(λ), whereZ(λ) is defined by an in general infinite set of linear inequalities, it is shown that the value-function has directional derivatives at every point such thatP( ) and its dual are both superconsistent. To compute these directional derivatives a min-max-formula, well-known in convex programming, is derived. In addition, it is shown that derivatives can be obtained more easily by a limit-process using only convergent selections of solutions ofP(λ _n ), λ _n → and their duals.     

The Feichtinger Conjecture for Reproducing Kernels in Model Subspaces

We obtain two results concerning the Feichtinger conjecture for systems of normalized reproducing kernels in the model subspace K _Θ=H ²⊖ΘH ² of the Hardy space H ², where Θ is an inner function. First, we verify the Feichtinger conjecture for the kernels [(k)\tilde]_ln=k_ln/||k_ln||\tilde{k}_{\lambda_{n}}=k_{\lambda_{n}}/\|k_{\lambda _{n}}\| under the assumption that sup  _n |Θ(λ _n )|<1. Second, we prove the Feichtinger conjecture in the case where Θ is a one-component inner function, meaning that the set {z:|Θ(z)|<ε} is connected for some ε∈(0,1).

In this note,it is shown that if a rational function fofdegree≥2 has a nonempty set of buried points ,then for a generic choice of the point z in the Julia set ,z is a buried point ,and if the Julia set is disconnected,it has uncountably many buried components.     

A coefficient inequality for Bloch functions with applications to uniformly locally univalent functions

We give a Fekete-Szeg? type inequality for an analytic function on the unit disk with Bloch seminorm ≤1. As an application of it, we derive a sharp inequality for the third coefficient of a uniformly locally univalent function f(z) = z + a ₂ z ² + a ₃ z ³ + ⋯ on the unit disk with pre-Schwarzian norm ≤λ for a given λ > 0.

For given analytic functions ϕ(z) = z + Σ _n=2^∞ λ _n z ⁿ , Ψ(z) = z + Σ _n=2^∞ μ with λ _n ≥ 0, μ _n ≥ 0, and λ _n ≥ μ _n and for α, β (0≤α<1, 0<β≤1), let E(φ,ψ; α, β) be of analytic functions ƒ(z) = z + Σ _n=2^∞ a _n z ⁿ in U such that f(z)*ψ(z)≠0 and

Right triangles with algebraic sides and elliptic curves over number fields

Given any positive integer n, we prove the existence of infinitely many right triangles with area n and side lengths in certain number fields. This generalizes the famous congruent number problem. The proof allows the explicit construction of these triangles; for this purpose we find for any positive integer n an explicit cubic number field ℚ(λ) (depending on n) and an explicit point P _λ of infinite order in the Mordell-Weil group of the elliptic curve Y ² = X ³ − n ² X over ℚ(λ).
