Linear natural operators lifting p-vectors to tensors of type (q, 0) on Weil bundles

We give a classification of all linear natural operators transforming p-vectors (i.e., skew-symmetric tensor fields of type (p, 0)) on n-dimensional manifolds M to tensor fields of type (q, 0) on T^AM, where T^A is a Weil bundle, under the condition that p ≥ 1, n ≥ p and n ≥ q. The main result of the paper states that, roughly speaking, each linear natural operator lifting p-vectors to tensor fields of type (q, 0) on T^A is a sum of operators obtained by permuting the indices of the tensor products of linear natural operators lifting p-vectors to tensor fields of type (p, 0) on T^A and canonical tensor fields of type (q ? p, 0) on T^A.     

Inversion of matrices over a pseudocomplemented lattice

We compute the greatest solutions of systems of linear equations over a lattice (P, ≤). We also present some applications of the results obtained to lattice matrix theory. Let (P, ≤) be a pseudocomplemented lattice with and and let A = ‖a _ij ‖ _n×n , where a _ij ∈ P for i, j = 1,..., n. Let A* = ‖a _ij ^′ ‖ _n×n and for i, j = 1,..., n, where a* is the pseudocomplement of a ∈ P in (P, ≤). A matrix A has a right inverse over (P, ≤) if and only if A · A* = E over (P, ≤). If A has a right inverse over (P, ≤), then A* is the greatest right inverse of A over (P, ≤). The matrix A has a right inverse over (P, ≤) if and only if A is a column orthogonal over (P, ≤). The matrix D = A · A* is the greatest diagonal such that A is a left divisor of D over (P, ≤). Invertible matrices over a distributive lattice (P, ≤) form the general linear group GL _n (P, ≤) under multiplication. Let (P, ≤) be a finite distributive lattice and let k be the number of components of the covering graph Γ(join(P,≤) − , ≤), where join(P, ≤) is the set of join irreducible elements of (P, ≤). Then GL _a (P, ≤) ≅ = S _n ^k . We give some further results concerning inversion of matrices over a pseudocomplemented lattice. __________ Translated from Fundamentalnaya i Prikladnaya Matematika, Vol. 11, No. 3, pp. 139–154, 2005.

Suppose thatm, n are positive even integers andp is a prime number such thatp-1 is not a divisor ofm. For any non-negative integerN, the classical Kummer’s congruences on Bernoulli numbersB _n(n = 1,2,3,...) assert that (1-p ^m-1)B _m/m isp-integral and

Convex mappings on some Reinhardt domains

In this paper, we consider the following Reinhardt domains. Let M = （M1, M2,..., Mn） ： [0,1] → [0,1]^n be a C2-function and Mj（0） = 0, Mj（1） = 1, Mj″ 〉 0, C1jr^pj-1 〈 Mj′（r） 〈 C2jr^pj-1, r∈ （0, 1）, pj 〉 2, 1 ≤ j ≤ n, 0 〈 C1j 〈 C2j be constants. Define

Then DM C^n is a convex Reinhardt domain. We give an extension theorem for a normalized biholomorphic convex mapping f ： DM -→ C^n.     

Linear liftings of skew symmetric tensor fields of type (1, 2) to Weil bundles

The paper contains a classification of linear liftings of skew symmetric tensor fields of type (1, 2) on n-dimensional manifolds to tensor fields of type (1, 2) on Weil bundles under the condition that n ⩾ 3. It complements author’s paper “Linear liftings of symmetric tensor fields of type (1, 2) to Weil bundles” (Ann. Polon. Math. 92, 2007, pp. 13–27), where similar liftings of symmetric tensor fields were studied. We apply this result to generalize that of author’s paper “Affine liftings of torsion-free connections to Weil bundles” (Colloq. Math. 114, 2009, pp. 1–8) and get a classification of affine liftings of all linear connections to Weil bundles.     

On some number-theoretic conjectures of V. Arnold

In [1], V.I. Arnold conjectured “the matrix Euler congruence” for any integer matrix A, prime p, and natural number n. He proved it for p ≤ 5, n ≤ 4. In fact the conjecture immediately follows from a result of C.J. Smyth [5]. We give a simple proof of this result and discuss a related conjecture of Arnold concerning some congruences for multinomial coefficients.

Strong monotonicity of operator functions

LetA, B be bounded selfadjoint operators on a Hilbert space. We will give a formula to get the maximum subspace such that is invariant forA andB, and . We will use this to show strong monotonicity or strong convexity of operator functions. We will see that when 0≤A≤B, andB−A is of finite rank,A ^t ≤B ^t for somet>1 if and only if the null space ofB−A is invariant forA.     

A pull back theorem in the Adams spectral sequence

This paper proves that, for any generator x∈ExtA^s,tq（Zp,Zp）, if （1L ∧i）＊Ф＊（x）∈ExtA^s＋1,tq＋2q（H＊L∧M, Zp） is a permanent cycle in the Adams spectral sequence （ASS）, then b0x ∈ExtA^s＋1,tq＋q（Zp, Zp） also is a permenent cycle in the ASS. As an application, the paper obtains that h0hnhm∈ExtA^3,pnq＋p^mq＋q（Zp, Zp） is a permanent cycle in the ASS and it converges to elements of order p in the stable homotopy groups of spheres πp^nq＋p^mq＋q-3S, where p ≥5 is a prime, s ≤ 4, n ≥m＋2≥4 and M is the Moore spectrum.     

On Ricci curvature ofC-totally real submanifolds in Sasakian space forms

LetM ⁿ be a Riemanniann-manifold. Denote byS(p) and Ric(p) the Ricci tensor and the maximum Ricci curvature onM _n, respectively. In this paper we prove that everyC-totally real submanifold of a Sasakian space formM ^2m+1(c) satisfies , whereH ² andg are the square mean curvature function and metric tensor onM ⁿ, respectively. The equality holds identically if and only if eitherM ⁿ is totally geodesic submanifold or n = 2 andM ⁿ is totally umbilical submanifold. Also we show that if aC-totally real submanifoldM ⁿ ofM ²ⁿ⁺¹ (c) satisfies identically, then it is minimal.

Sets of rigged paths with Virasoro characters

Let {M _r,s ^(p,p′)}_{1≤r≤p−1,1≤s≤p′−1} be the irreducible Virasoro modules in the (p,p′)-minimal series. In our previous paper, we have constructed a monomial basis of ⊕ _r=1 ^p−1 M _r,s ^(p,p′) in the case 1<p′/p<2. By ‘monomials’ we mean vectors of the form , where φ _−n ^(r′,r):M _r,s ^(p,p′)→M _r′,s ^(p,p′) are the Fourier components of the (2,1)-primary field and |r ₀,s〉 is the highest weight vector of . In this article, we introduce for all p<p′ with p≥3 and s=1 a subset of such monomials as a conjectural basis of ⊕ _r=1 ^p−1 M _r,1^(p,p′). We prove that the character of the combinatorial set labeling these monomials coincides with the character of the corresponding Virasoro module. We also verify the conjecture in the case p=3.      

Finitary reconstruction of a measure preserving transformation

This paper considers thefinitary reconstruction of an ergodic measure preserving transformationT of a complete separable metric spaceX from a single trajectoryx, Tx, …, or more generally, from a suitable reconstruction sequence x=x ₁,x ₂, … withx _i∈X. Ann-sample reconstruction is a functionT _n: X ⁿ⁺¹ →X; the map (·;x ₁, …,x _n)is treated as an estimate ofT(·) based on then initial elements of x. Given a reference probability measureμ ₀ and constantM>1, functionsT ₁,T ₂, … are defined, and it is shown that for everyμ with 1/M≤dμ/dμ ₀≤M, everyμ-preserving transformationT, and every reconstruction sequence x forT, the estimates (·;x ₁, …,x _nconverge toT in the weak topology. For the family of interval exchange transformations of [0, 1] a simple family of estimates is described and shown to be consistent both pointwise and in the strong topology. However, it is also shown that no finitary estimation scheme is consistent in the strong topology for the family of all ergodic Lebesgue measure preserving transformations of the unit interval, even if x is assumed to be a generic trajectory ofT.

A variant of Davenport’s constant

Let p be a prime number. Let G be a finite abelian p-group of exponent n (written additively) and A be a non-empty subset of ]n[≔ {1, 2,…, n} such that elements of A are incongruent modulo p and non-zero modulo p. Let k ≥ D(G/|A| be any integer where D(G) denotes the well-known Davenport’s constant. In this article, we prove that for any sequence g ₁, g ₂,…, g _k (not necessarily distinct) in G, one can always extract a subsequence with 1 ≤ ℓ ≤ k such that

Transversals of additive Latin squares

LetA={a ₁, …,a _k} andB={b ₁, …,b _k} be two subsets of an Abelian groupG, k≤|G|. Snevily conjectured that, whenG is of odd order, there is a permutationπ ∈S _ksuch that the sums α _i +b _i , 1≤i≤k, are pairwise different. Alon showed that the conjecture is true for groups of prime order, even whenA is a sequence ofk<|G| elements, i.e., by allowing repeated elements inA. In this last sense the result does not hold for other Abelian groups. With a new kind of application of the polynomial method in various finite and infinite fields we extend Alon’s result to the groups (ℤ _p ) ^a and in the casek<p, and verify Snevily’s conjecture for every cyclic group of odd order.

Distribution of the maxima of random Takagi functions

This paper concerns the maximum value and the set of maximum points of a random version of Takagi’s continuous, nowhere differentiable function. Let F(x):=∑ _n=1^∞ ε _n ϕ(2 ⁿ⁻¹ x), x ∈ R, where ɛ ₁, ɛ ₂, ... are independent, identically distributed random variables taking values in {−1, 1}, and ϕ is the “tent map” defined by ϕ(x) = 2 dist (x, Z). Let p:= P (ɛ ₁ = 1), M:= max {F(x): x ∈ R}, and := {x ∈ [0, 1): F(x) = M}. An explicit expression for M is given in terms of the sequence {ɛ _n }, and it is shown that the probability distribution μ of M is purely atomic if p < , and is singular continuous if p ≧ . In the latter case, the Hausdorff dimension and the multifractal spectrum of μ are determined. It is shown further that the set is finite almost surely if p < , and is topologically equivalent to a Cantor set almost surely if p ≧ . The distribution of the cardinality of is determined in the first case, and the almost-sure Hausdorff dimension of is shown to be (2p − 1)/2p in the second case. The distribution of the leftmost point of is also given. Finally, some of the results are extended to the more general functions Σa ^{n − 1} ɛ _n ϕ(2 ^{n − 1} x), where 0 < a < 1.      

A joint norm control Nehari type theorem forN-tuples of Hardy spaces

If N ∈ ℕ, 0 < p ≤ 1, and(X_k) _k=1 ^N are r.i.p-spaces, it is shown that there is C(= C(p, N)) > 0, such that for every ƒ ∈ ∩ _k=1 ^N X_k, there exists with , for every 1 ≤ k ≤ N. Also, if ⊓ is a convex polygon in ℝ², it is proved that the N-tuple (H(X₁),…, H(X_n)) is K_⊓-closed with respect to (X₁,…, X_N) in the sense of Pisier. Everything follows from Theorem 2.1, which is a general analytic partition of unity type result.
