Invariant and quasi-invariant transformations of measures that correspond to stable processes with independent increments

Let ξ(t), t ∈ [0, 1], be a strictly stable process with an index of stability α ∈ (0, 2). By we denote the law of ξ in the Skorokhod space [0,1]. For arbitrary strictly stable process ξ, we construct a semigroup of transformations of [0, 1] for which the measure is quasi-invariant. For strictly stable processes with positive and negative jumps, we construct a group of transformations of [0, 1] for which the measure is quasi-invariant. In the symmetric case, this group is a group of invariant transformations. Bibliography: 10 titles. __________ Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 339, 2006, pp. 135–149.

Some Integral Transformations with Reproducing Properties

By means of an elementary consideration, families of integral transformations in certain spaces (e.g., in , where is the unit disk) are constructed. These transformations map elements of certain subspaces either to itself or to their derivatives, respectively. As a special case, we obtain a family of integral transformations generating a decomposition of into a direct sum. By introducing appropriate new scalar products, these direct sums become decompositions into orthogonal complements, and the corresponding integral transformations become self-adjoint operators of into itself positive with respect to the new scalar products. In further special cases, these integral transformations possess bounded and injective extensions mapping onto well-defined subspaces of . The latter property is a consequence of the connection of our transformations with the complex Hilbert transformation. Bibliography: 10 titles.     

Some characterizations of weighted Herz-type Hardy spaces and their applications

In this paper, the authors first establish some new real-variable characterizations of Herz-type Hardy spaces and , where ω₁,ω₃ ∈ A₁-weight, 1<q>∞,n(1−1/q)≤α<∞ and 0<p<∞. Then, using these new characterizations, they investigate the convergence of a bounded set in these spaces, and study the boundedness of some potential operators on these spaces.

Let ξ(t), t ∈ [0, 1], be a jump Lévy process. We denote by the law of ξ in the Skorokhod space [0, 1].

Cobordisms of Embeddings with Codimension Two

We single out the obstruction for a closed -null-homologous submanifold of codimension 2 to be the boundary of a submanifold of codimension 1.

Large deviations of the steady-state distribution of reflected processes with applications to queueing systems

We consider a Skorohod map which takes paths in to paths which stay in the positive orthant . We let be the domain of definition of . A convex and lower semi-continuous function and a set are given. We are concerned with the calculation of the infimum of the value for t ⩾ 0 and absolutely continuous subject to the conditions and . We show that such minimization problems characterize large deviation asymptotics of tail probabilities of the steady-state distribution of certain reflected processes. We approximate the infimum by a sequence of finite-dimensional minimization problems. This approximation allows to formulate an algorithm for the calculation of the infimum and to derive analytical bounds for its value. Several applications are discussed including large deviations of generalized processor sharing and large deviations of heavily loaded queueing networks. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Arithmetic Interpretability Types of Varieties and Some Additive Problems with Primes

We deal with varieties with one basic operation f(x₁,...,x_n) and one defining identity f(x₁,..., x_n) = f(x_π(1),...,x_π(n)), where π is a permutation whose cyclic set consists of distinct primes p₁,...,p_r, with the sum p₁+...+p_r = n. Their interpretability types, together with the greatest element 1 in a lattice ^int, are said to be arithmetic. It is proved that the arithmetic types constitute a distributive lattice _ar, which is dual to a lattice Sub _fΠ of finite subsets of the set Π of all primes. It is shown that for n ⩾ 2, the poset _ar( _n) of arithmetic types defined by permutations in _n, for n fixed, is a lattice iff n = 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 11. __________ Translated from Algebra i Logika, Vol. 44, No. 5, pp. 622–630, September–October, 2005.

Classical r-matrices with a parabolic carrier

Using a graphic presentation of the dual Lie algebra ^# (r) for a simple algebra , it is possible to show that there always exist solutions r_ech of the classical Yang—Baxter equation with a parabolic carrier. To get a closed-form expression for r_ech, we find dual coordinates in which the adjoint action of the carrier _c is reducible. This allows us to find the structure of Jordanian r-matrices r_J which are candidates for enlarging the initial full chain r_fch and realize the desired solution r_ech in the factorized form r_ech ≈ r_fch + r_J. We obtain a unique transformation: the canonical chain has to be replaced by a special kind of peripheric r-matrices, r_fch → r_rfch. To illustrate the method, the case of =sl(11) is considered in the full detail. Bibliography: 11 titles.

Deformations with Section: Cotangent Cohomology, Flatness Conditions, and Modular Subgerms

We study modular subspaces corresponding to two deformation functors associated with an isolated singularity X ₀: the functor of deformations of X ₀ and the functor of deformations with section of X ₀. After recalling some standard facts on the cotangent cohomology of analytic algebras and the general theory of deformations with section, we give several criteria for modularity in terms of the relative cotangent cohomology modules of a deformation. In particular, it is shown that the modular strata for the functors and of quasi-homogeneous complete intersection singularities coincide. Then flatness conditions for the first cotangent cohomology modules of the deformation functors under consideration are compared. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika i Ee Prilozheniya (Contemporary Mathematics and Its Applications), Vol. 15, Theory of Functions, 2004.
