On certain character sums over p ‐adic rings and their L ‐functions

In this paper we present a new method for evaluating exponential sums associated to a restricted power series in one variable modulo p^l , a power of a prime. We show that for sufficiently large l, these sums can be expressed in terms of Gauss sums. Moreover, we study the associated L ‐functions; we show that they are rational, then we determine their degrees and the weights as Weil numbers of their reciprocal roots and poles.

Carleson measures and the BMO space on the p ‐adic vector space

For a prime number p, let Q _p be the p ‐adic field and let Q _p ^d denote a vector space over Q _p which consists of all d ‐tuples of Q _p . Then we study the p ‐adic version of the Calderón–Zygmund decomposition, Carleson measures on the vector space Q _p ^{d +1} and the space BMO ( Q _p ^d ) of functions of bounded mean oscillation on Q _p ^d . In particular, it turns out that the operator norms of various oncoming operators are independent of the dimension d and the prime number p, which is one of the big differences from that of the Euclidean case. Interestingly, the independence of the dimension d and p makes it possible to develop Harmonic Analysis on the infinite dimensional p ‐adic vector space as the importance had already been pointed out in the Euclidean case (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Peters type polynomials and numbers and their generating functions: Approach with p‐adic integral method

The aim of this paper is to introduce and investigate some of the primary generalizations and unifications of the Peters polynomials and numbers by means of convenient generating functions and p‐adic integrals method. Various fundamental properties of these polynomials and numbers involving some explicit series and integral representations in terms of the generalized Stirling numbers, generalized harmonic sums, and some well‐known special numbers and polynomials are presented. By using p‐adic integrals, we construct generating functions for Peters type polynomials and numbers (Apostol‐type Peters numbers and polynomials). By using these functions with their partial derivative eqautions and functional equations, we derive many properties, relations, explicit formulas, and identities including the Apostol‐Bernoulli polynomials, the Apostol‐Euler polynomials, the Boole polynomials, the Bernoulli polynomials, and numbers of the second kind, generalized harmonic sums. A brief revealing and historical information for the Peters type polynomials are given. Some of the formulas given in this article are given critiques and comments between previously well‐known formulas. Finally, two open problems for interpolation functions for Apostol‐type Peters numbers and polynomials are revealed.     

A characterization of generalized poles of generalized Nevanlinna functions

Generalized poles of a generalized Nevanlinna function Q ∈ ??_κ (??) are defined in terms of the operator representation of Q . In this paper those generalized poles that are not of positive type and their degrees of non‐positivity are characterized analytically by means of pole cancellation functions.

Suppleness of the sheaf of algebras of generalized functions on manifolds

We show that the sheaves of algebras of generalized functions Ω→G(Ω) and Ω→G^∞(Ω), Ω are open sets in a manifold X, are supple, contrary to the non-suppleness of the sheaf of distributions.     

An asymptotic expansion for the semi‐infinite sum of Dirac‐δ functions

In this paper, we derive an asymptotic expansion for the semi‐infinite sum of Dirac‐δ functions centered at discrete equidistant points defined by the set . The method relies on the Laplace transform of the semi‐infinite sum of Dirac‐δ functions. The derived series distribution takes the form of the Euler‐Maclaurin summation when the distributions are defined for complex or real‐valued continuous functions over the interval . For n=1, the series expansion contributes with a term equal to δ(x)/2, which survives in the limit when a→0⁺. This term represents a correction term, which is in general omitted in calculations of the density of states of quantum confined systems by finite‐size effects.     

Multiple and sign‐changing solutions for the multivalued p ‐Laplacian equation

We consider a class of elliptic inclusions under Dirichlet boundary conditions involving multifunctions of Clarke's generalized gradient. Under conditions given in terms of the first eigenvalue as well as the Fu?ik spectrum of the p ‐Laplacian we prove the existence of a positive, a negative and a sign‐changing solution. Our approach is based on variational methods for nonsmooth functionals (nonsmooth critical point theory, second deformation lemma), and comparison principles for multivalued elliptic problems. In particular, the existence of extremal constant‐sign solutions plays a key role in the proof of sign‐changing solutions (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

On the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the framework of generalized functions

In this work we study, in the framework of Colombeau?s generalized functions, the Hamilton-Jacobi equation with a given initial condition. We have obtained theorems on existence of solutions and in some cases uniqueness. Our technique is adapted from the classical method of characteristics with a wide use of generalized functions. We were led also to obtain some general results on invertibility and also on ordinary differential equations of such generalized functions.     

Positive solutions and multiple solutions for periodic problems driven by scalar p ‐Laplacian

In this paper we study a nonlinear second order periodic problem driven by a scalar p ‐Laplacian and with a nonsmooth, locally Lipschitz potential function. Using a variational approach based on the nonsmooth critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functions, we first prove the existence of nontrivial positive solutions and then establish the existence of a second distinct solution (multiplicity theorem) by strengthening further the hypotheses.

On the Riemann‐Hilbert boundary value problem for generalized analytic functions in the framework of variable exponent spaces

Let Γ be a simple closed curve that bounds the finite domain D , z =z (ζ )=z (r e ^{i ?} ) be the conformal mapping of the circle {ζ :|ζ |<1} onto the domain D . Furthermore, let the functions A (z ), B (z ) be given on D and U ^{s ,2}(A ;B ;D ) be the set of regular solutions of the equation . We call the Smirnov class E ^{p (t )}(A ;B ;D ) the set of those generalized functions W in D for which where p (t ) is a positive measurable function on Γ. We consider the Riemann‐Hilbert problem: Define a function W (z ) from the class E ^{p (t )}(A ;B ;D ) for which the equality, is fulfilled almost everywhere on Γ. It is assumed that Γ is a piecewise‐smooth curve without external peaks; , p is Log Hölder continuous and the function belongs to the class A (p (t );Γ), which is the generalization of the well‐known Simonenko class A (p ;Γ), where p is constant. The solvability conditions are established, and solutions are constructed.

Certain classes of potentials for p ‐Laplacian to be non‐degenerate

Given a positive integer n and an exponent 1 ≤ α ≤ ∞. We will find explicitly the optimal bound r_n such that if the L^α norm of a potential q (t ) satisfies ‖q ‖equation/tex2gif-inf-2.gif < r_n then the n ^th Dirichlet eigenvalue of the onedimensional p ‐Laplacian with the potential q (t ): (|u ′|^{p –2} u ′)′ + (λ + q (t )) |u |^{p –2}u = 0 (1 < p < ∞) will be positive. Using these bounds, we will construct, for the Dirichlet, the Neumann, the periodic or the antiperiodic boundary conditions, certain classes of potentials q (t ) so that the p ‐Laplacian with the potential q (t ) is non‐degenerate, which means that the above equation with λ = 0 has only the trivial solution verifying the corresponding boundary condition.

On the periodicity of trigonometric functions generalized to quotient rings of R[x]

We apply a method of Euler to algebraic extensions of sets of numbers with compound additive inverse which can be seen as quotient rings of R[x]. This allows us to evaluate a generalization of Riemann’s zeta function in terms of the period of a function which generalizes the function sin z. It follows that the functions generalizing the trigonometric functions on these sets of numbers are not periodic.     

On the new solutions of the generalized Burgers–Huxley equation

In this paper, we investigate a class of generalized Burgers–Huxley equation by employing the bifurcation method of planar dynamical systems. Firstly, we reduce the equation to a planar system via the traveling wave solution ansatz; then by computing the singular point quantities, we obtain the conditions of integrability and determine the existence of one stable limit cycle from Hopf bifurcation in the corresponding planar system. From this, some new exact solutions and a special periodic traveling wave solution, which is isolated as a limit, are obtained. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
