Superstability of the generalized orthogonality equation on restricted domains

Chmielinski has proved in the paper [4] the superstability of the generalized orthogonality equation |〈f(x), f(y)〉| = |〈x,y〉|. In this paper, we will extend the result of Chmielinski by proving a theorem: LetD _n be a suitable subset of ℝⁿ. If a function f:D _n → ℝⁿ satisfies the inequality ∥〈f(x), f(y)〉| |〈x,y〉∥ ≤ φ(x,y) for an appropriate control function φ(x, y) and for allx, y ∈ D _n, thenf satisfies the generalized orthogonality equation for anyx, y ∈ D _n.     

Multipliers for logarithmic Cauchy integrals in the ball

Let B _n denote the unit ball in \mathbbC \mathbb{C} ⁿ , n ≥ 1. Let K \mathcal{K} ₀(n) denote the class of functions defined for z ∈ B _n as a constant plus the integral of the kernel log(1/(1 −〈z, ζ〉)) against a complex Borel measure on the sphere {ζ ∈ \mathbbC \mathbb{C} ⁿ ,: |ζ| = 1}. Properties of holomorphic functions g such that fg ∈ K \mathcal{K} ₀(n) for all f ∈ K \mathcal{K} ₀(n) are studied. The extended Cesàro operators are investigated on the spaces K \mathcal{K} ₀(n), n ≥ 1. Bibliography: 15 titles.     

Wavelet expansions of fractal measures

Let μ be a measure on ℝⁿ that satisfies the estimate μ(B _r(x))≤cr ^α for allx ∈ ℝⁿ and allr ≤ 1 (B _r(x) denotes the ball of radius r centered atx. Let ϕ _j,k ^(ɛ) (x)=2 ^nj2ϕ^(ɛ)(2 ^j x-k) be a wavelet basis forj ∈ ℤ, κ ∈ ℤⁿ, and ∈ ∈E, a finite set, and letP _j (T)=Σ_ɛ,k <T,ϕ _j,k ^(ɛ) >ϕ _j,k ^(ɛ) denote the associated projection operators at levelj (T is a suitable measure or distribution). Iff ∈Ls ^p(dμ) for 1 ≤p ≤ ∞, we show thatP _j(f dμ) ∈ L^p(dx) and ||P _j (fdμ)||L _p(dx)≤c2 ^{j((n-α)/p′))}||f||L _p(dμ) for allj ≥ 0. We also obtain estimates for the limsup and liminf of ||P _j (fdμ)||L _p(dx) under more restrictive hypotheses. Communicated by Guido Weiss     

Some simple Haar-type wavelets in higher dimensions

An orthonormal wavelet system in ℝ^d, d ∈ ℕ, is a countable collection of functions {ψ _j,k ^ℓ }, j ∈ ℤ, k ∈ ℤ^d, ℓ = 1,..., L, of the form that is an orthonormal basis for L² (ℝ^d), where a ∈ GL_d (ℝ) is an expanding matrix. The first such system to be discovered (almost 100 years ago) is the Haar system for which L = d = 1, ψ¹(x) = ψ(x) = κ[0,1/2)^(x) − κ_[l/2,1) ^(x), a = 2. It is a natural problem to extend these systems to higher dimensions. A simple solution is found by taking appropriate products Φ(x₁, x₂, ..., x_d) = φ₁ (x₁)φ₂(x₂) ... φ_d(x_d) of functions of one variable. The obtained wavelet system is not always convenient for applications. It is desirable to find “nonseparable” examples. One encounters certain difficulties, however, when one tries to construct such MRA wavelet systems. For example, if a = ( _1-1 ^{1 1} ) is the quincunx dilation matrix, it is well-known (see, e.g., [5]) that one can construct nonseparable Haar-type scaling functions which are characteristic functions of rather complicated fractal-like compact sets. In this work we shall construct considerably simpler Haar-type wavelets if we use the ideas arising from “composite dilation” wavelets. These were developed in [7] and involve dilations by matrices that are products of the form a^jb, j ∈ ℤ, where a ∈ GL_d(ℝ) has some “expanding” property and b belongs to a group of matrices in GL_d(ℝ) having |det b| = 1.     

A Robin boundary problem with Hardy potential and critical nonlinearities

Sharp estimates for maximal operators associated to the wave equation

The wave equation, ∂ _tt u=Δu, in ℝ ⁿ⁺¹, considered with initial data u(x,0)=f∈H ^s (ℝ ⁿ ) and u’(x,0)=0, has a solution which we denote by . We give almost sharp conditions under which and are bounded from H ^s (ℝ ⁿ ) to L ^q (ℝ ⁿ ).     

A characterization of the higher dimensional groups associated with continuous wavelets

A subgroup D of GL (n, ℝ) is said to be admissible if the semidirect product of D and ℝ ⁿ , considered as a subgroup of the affine group on ℝ ⁿ , admits wavelets ψ ∈ L²(ℝ ⁿ ) satisfying a generalization of the Calderón reproducing, formula. This article provides a nearly complete characterization of the admissible subgroups D. More precisely, if D is admissible, then the stability subgroup D_x for the transpose action of D on ℝ ⁿ must be compact for a. e. x. ∈ ℝ ⁿ ; moreover, if Δ is the modular function of D, there must exist an a ∈ D such that |det a| ≠ Δ(a). Conversely, if the last condition holds and for a. e. x ∈ ℝ ⁿ there exists an ε > 0 for which the ε-stabilizer D _x ^ε is compact, then D is admissible. Numerous examples are given of both admissible and non-admissible groups.     

Existence and analyticity of eigenvalues of a two-channel molecular resonance model

We consider a family of operators H_γμ(k), k ∈ \mathbbT^d \mathbb{T}^d := (−π,π]^d, associated with the Hamiltonian of a system consisting of at most two particles on a d-dimensional lattice ℤ^d, interacting via both a pair contact potential (μ > 0) and creation and annihilation operators (γ > 0). We prove the existence of a unique eigenvalue of H_γμ(k), k ∈ \mathbbT^d \mathbb{T}^d , or its absence depending on both the interaction parameters γ,μ ≥ 0 and the system quasimomentum k ∈ \mathbbT^d \mathbb{T}^d . We show that the corresponding eigenvector is analytic. We establish that the eigenvalue and eigenvector are analytic functions of the quasimomentum k ∈ \mathbbT^d \mathbb{T}^d in the existence domain G ⊂ \mathbbT^d \mathbb{T}^d .

Construction of a class of multivariate compactly supported wavelet bases for L 2(? d )

In this paper, for a given d×d expansive matrix M with |detM| = 2, we investigate the compactly supported M-wavelets for L ²(ℝ ^d ). Starting with a pair of compactly supported refinable functions ϕ and [(j)\tilde]\tilde \varphi satisfying a mild condition, we obtain an explicit construction of a compactly supported wavelet ψ such that {2 ^j/2 ψ(M ^j · −k): j ∈ ℤ, k ∈ ℤd} forms a Riesz basis for L ²(ℝ ^d ). The (anti-)symmetry of such ψ is studied, and some examples are also provided.

Let T_R be the class of functions that are regular and typically real in the disk E={z:⋱z⋱<1}. For this class, the region of values of the system {f(z₀), f(r)} for z₀ ∈ ℝ, r∈(-1,1) is studied. The sets D_r={f(z₀):f∈T_R, f(r)=a} for −1≤r≤1 and Δ_r={(c₂, c₃): f ∈ T_R, −f(−r)=a} for 0<r≤1 are found, where aε(r(1+r)⁻², r(1−r)⁻²) is an arbitrary fixed number. Bibliography: 11 titles.

Riesz multiwavelet bases generated by vector refinement equation

In this paper, we investigate compactly supported Riesz multiwavelet sequences and Riesz multiwavelet bases for L ₂(ℝ ^s ). Suppose ψ = (ψ¹,..., ψ ^r ) ^T and are two compactly supported vectors of functions in the Sobolev space (H ^μ(ℝ ^s )) ^r for some μ > 0. We provide a characterization for the sequences {ψ _jk ^l : l = 1,...,r, j ε ℤ, k ε ℤ ^s } and to form two Riesz sequences for L ₂(ℝ ^s ), where ψ _jk ^l = m ^j/2ψ ^l (M ^j ·−k) and , M is an s × s integer matrix such that lim _n→∞ M ⁻ⁿ = 0 and m = |detM|. Furthermore, let ϕ = (ϕ¹,...,ϕ ^r ) ^T and be a pair of compactly supported biorthogonal refinable vectors of functions associated with the refinement masks a, and M, where a and are finitely supported sequences of r × r matrices. We obtain a general principle for characterizing vectors of functions ψ^ν = (ψ^ν1,...,ψ^νr ) ^T and , ν = 1,..., m − 1 such that two sequences {ψ _jk ^νl : ν = 1,..., m − 1, l = 1,...,r, j ε ℤ, k ε ℤ ^s } and { : ν=1,...,m−1,ℓ=1,...,r, j ∈ ℤ, k ∈ ℤ ^s } form two Riesz multiwavelet bases for ^L ₂(ℝ ^s ). The bracket product [f, g] of two vectors of functions f, g in (L ₂(ℝ ^s )) ^r is an indispensable tool for our characterization.

Gauss Sum of Index 4： （1） Cyclic Case

Let p be a prime, m ≥ 2, and （m,p（p - 1）） = 1. In this paper, we will calculate explicitly the Gauss sum G（X） = ∑x∈F＊qX（x）ζ^Tp^（x） in the case of [（Z/mZ）＊ ： （p）] = 4, and -1 （不属于） （p）, where q P^f, f =φ（m）/4, X is a multiplicative character of Fq with order m, and T is the trace map for Fq/Fp. Under the assumptions [（Z/mZ）＊ ： （p）] = 4 and 1（不属于） （p）, the decomposition field of p in the cyclotomic field Q（ζm） is an imaginary quartic （abelian） field. And G（X） is an integer in K. We deal with the case where K is cyclic in this oaDer and leave the non-cvclic case to the next paper.     

The density of rational points on non-singular hypersurfaces

LetF(x) =F[x₁,…,x_n]∈ℤ[x₁,…,x_n] be a non-singular form of degree d≥2, and letN(F, X)=#{xεℤ ⁿ ;F(x)=0, |x|⩽X}, where . It was shown by Fujiwara [4] [Upper bounds for the number of lattice points on hypersurfaces,Number theory and combinatorics, Japan, 1984, (World Scientific Publishing Co., Singapore, 1985)] thatN(F, X)≪X ^n−2+2/n for any fixed formF. It is shown here that the exponent may be reduced ton - 2 + 2/(n + 1), forn ≥ 4, and ton - 3 + 15/(n + 5) forn ≥ 8 andd ≥ 3. It is conjectured that the exponentn - 2 + ε is admissable as soon asn ≥ 3. Thus the conjecture is established forn ≥ 10. The proof uses Deligne’s bounds for exponential sums and for the number of points on hypersurfaces over finite fields. However a composite modulus is used so that one can apply the ‘q-analogue’ of van der Corput’s AB process. Dedicated to the memory of Professor K G Ramanathan     

A Characterization of Quadric Constant Mean Curvature Hypersurfaces of Spheres

Let be an immersion of a complete n-dimensional oriented manifold. For any v∈ℝ ⁿ⁺², let us denote by ℓ _v :M→ℝ the function given by ℓ _v (x)=〈φ(x),v〉 and by f _v :M→ℝ, the function given by f _v (x)=〈ν(x),v〉, where is a Gauss map. We will prove that if M has constant mean curvature, and, for some v≠0 and some real number λ, we have that ℓ _v =λ f _v , then, φ(M) is either a totally umbilical sphere or a Clifford hypersurface. As an application, we will use this result to prove that the weak stability index of any compact constant mean curvature hypersurface M ⁿ in which is neither totally umbilical nor a Clifford hypersurface and has constant scalar curvature is greater than or equal to 2n+4.

Comonotone approximation of twice differentiable periodic functions

In the case where a 2π-periodic function f is twice continuously differentiable on the real axis ℝ and changes its monotonicity at different fixed points y _i ∈ [− π, π), i = 1,…, 2s, s ∈ ℕ (i.e., on ℝ, there exists a set Y := {y _i } _i∈ℤ of points y _i = y _i+2s + 2π such that the function f does not decrease on [y _i , y _i−1] if i is odd and does not increase if i is even), for any natural k and n, n ≥ N(Y, k) = const, we construct a trigonometric polynomial T _n of order ≤n that changes its monotonicity at the same points y _i ∈ Y as f and is such that

Orthogonality criteria for compactly supported refinable functions and refinable function vectors

A refinable function φ(x):ℝⁿ→ℝ or, more generally, a refinable function vector Φ(x)=[φ₁(x),...,φ_r(x)]^T is an L¹ solution of a system of (vector-valued) refinement equations involving expansion by a dilation matrix A, which is an expanding integer matrix. A refinable function vector is called orthogonal if {φ_j(x−α):α∈ℤⁿ, 1≤j≤r form an orthogonal set of functions in L²(ℝⁿ). Compactly supported orthogonal refinable functions and function vectors can be used to construct orthonormal wavelet and multiwavelet bases of L²(ℝⁿ). In this paper we give a comprehensive set of necessary and sufficient conditions for the orthogonality of compactly supported refinable functions and refinable function vectors.
