Tauberian type theorem for operators with interpolation spectrum for Hölder classes

We consider an invertible operator on a Banach space whose spectrum is an interpolating set for Hölder classes. We show that if , , with and , then for all , assuming that satisfies suitable regularity conditions. When is a Hilbert space and (i.e. is a contraction), we show that under the same assumptions, is unitary and this is sharp.

We show that under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis that if is not or an imaginary quadratic field and if , then has infinitely many maximal subgroups with cusps. A key element in the proof is a connection to Artin's Primitive Root Conjecture.

Dynamics of the function and the Green-Tao theorem on arithmetic progressions in the primes

Let be the set of all positive integers , where are primes and possibly two, but not all three of them are equal. For any , define a function by where is the largest prime factor of . It is clear that if , then . For any , define , for . An element is semi-periodic if there exists a nonnegative integer and a positive integer such that . We use ind to denote the least such nonnegative integer . Wushi Goldring [Dynamics of the function and primes, J. Number Theory 119(2006), 86-98] proved that any element is semi-periodic. He showed that there exists such that , ind, and conjectured that ind can be arbitrarily large.

In this paper, it is proved that for any we have ind , and the Green-Tao Theorem on arithmetic progressions in the primes is employed to confirm Goldring's above conjecture.

     

The -primary classifying space of the fiber of the double suspension

Gray showed that the homotopy fiber of the double suspension has an integral classifying space , which fits in a homotopy fibration . In addition, after localizing at an odd prime , is an -space and if , then is homotopy associative and homotopy commutative, and is an -map. We positively resolve a conjecture of Gray's that the same multiplicative properties hold for as well. We go on to give some exponent consequences.

Let be a computable Boolean algebra with infinitely many atoms and be the Turing degree of the atom relation of . If is a c.e. degree such that , then there is a computable copy of where the atom relation has degree . In particular, for every c.e. degree , any computable Boolean algebra with infinitely many atoms has a computable copy where the atom relation has degree .

     

On the distribution of Kloosterman sums

For a prime , we consider Kloosterman sums

over a finite field of elements. It is well known that due to results of Deligne, Katz and Sarnak, the distribution of the sums when runs through is in accordance with the Sato-Tate conjecture. Here we show that the same holds where runs through the sums for , for any two sufficiently large sets .

We also improve a recent bound on the nonlinearity of a Boolean function associated with the sequence of signs of Kloosterman sums.

     

A remark on irregularity of the -Neumann problem on non-smooth domains

It is an observation due to J. J. Kohn that for a smooth bounded pseudoconvex domain in there exists such that the -Neumann operator on maps (the space of -forms with coefficient functions in -Sobolev space of order ) into itself continuously. We show that this conclusion does not hold without the smoothness assumption by constructing a bounded pseudoconvex domain in , smooth except at one point, whose -Neumann operator is not bounded on for any .

Fix integers such that and , and let be the set of all integral, projective and nondegenerate curves of degree in the projective space , such that, for all , does not lie on any integral, projective and nondegenerate variety of dimension and degree . We say that a curve satisfies the flag condition if belongs to . Define where denotes the arithmetic genus of . In the present paper, under the hypothesis , we prove that a curve satisfying the flag condition and of maximal arithmetic genus must lie on a unique flag such as , where, for any , denotes an integral projective subvariety of of degree and dimension , such that its general linear curve section satisfies the flag condition and has maximal arithmetic genus . This proves the existence of a sort of a hierarchical structure of the family of curves with maximal genus verifying flag conditions.

On the residual finiteness and other properties of (relative) one-relator groups

A relative one-relator presentation has the form where is a set, is a group, and is a word on . We show that if the word on obtained from by deleting all the terms from has what we call the unique max-min property, then the group defined by is residually finite if and only if is residually finite (Theorem 1). We apply this to obtain new results concerning the residual finiteness of (ordinary) one-relator groups (Theorem 4). We also obtain results concerning the conjugacy problem for one-relator groups (Theorem 5), and results concerning the relative asphericity of presentations of the form (Theorem 6).
