On Sikkema-Kantorovič polynomials of order K

Let a_n≥0 and F(u)∈C [0,1], Sikkema constructed polynomials: , ifα _n ≡0, then B_n (0, F, x) are Bernstein polynomials. Let , we constructe new polynomials in this paper: Q _n ^(k) (α _n ,f(t))=d ^k /dx ^k B _n+k (α _n ,F _k (u),x), which are called Sikkema-Kantorovic polynomials of order k. Ifα _n ≡0, k=1, then Q_n ⁽¹⁾ (0, f(t), x) are Kantorovič polynomials P_n(f). Ifα _n =0, k=2, then Q_n ⁽²⁾, (0, f(t), x) are Kantorovič polynomials of second order (see Nagel). The main result is: Theorem 2. Let 1≤p≤∞, in order that for every f∈L^P [0, 1], , it is sufficient and necessary that , § 1. Let f(t) de a continuous function on [a, b], i. e., f∈C [a, b], we define^{[1–2],[8–10]}: . As usual, for the space L^p [a,b](1≤p<∞), we have and L[a, b]=l¹[a, b].

On extremal properties for the polar derivative of polynomials

If p(z) is a polynomial of degree n having all its zeros on |z| = k, k ≤ 1, then it is proved[5] that max |z|=1 |p′(z)| ≤ kn1n + kn m|z|=ax1 |p(z)|. In this paper, we generalize the above inequality by extending it to the polar derivative of a polynomial of the type p(z) = cnzn + ∑n j=μ cn jzn j, 1 ≤μ≤ n. We also obtain certain new inequalities concerning the maximum modulus of a polynomial with restricted zeros.     

On estimation of a density and its derivatives

Summary Letf _n ^(p) be a recursive kernel estimate off ^(p) thepth order derivative of the probability density functionf, based on a random sample of sizen. In this paper, we provide bounds for the moments of and show that the rate of almost sure convergence of to zero isO(n ^−α), α<(r−p)/(2r+1), iff ^(r),r>p≧0, is a continuousL ₂(−∞, ∞) function. Similar rate-factor is also obtained for the almost sure convergence of to zero under different conditions onf. This work was supported in part by the Research Foundation of SUNY.

Moreover, when X^{\frac1120(1-\frac1k) +e}\leqq H\leqq XX^{\frac{11}{20}\left(1-\frac{1}{k}\right) +\varepsilon}\leqq H\leqq X, almost all integers n∈(X,X+H] can be represented as the sum of a prime and a k-th power of integer for k≧3.

Upper bound theorems for homology manifolds

In this paper we prove the Upper Bound Conjecture (UBC) for some classes of (simplicial) homology manifolds: we show that the UBC holds for all odd-dimensional homology manifolds and for all 2k-dimensional homology manifolds Δ such that β _k (Δ)⩽Σ{β _i (Δ):i ≠k-2,k,k+2 and 1 ⩽i⩽2k-1}, where β _i (Δ) are reduced Betti numbers of Δ. (This condition is satisfied by 2k-dimensional homology manifolds with Euler characteristic χ≤2 whenk is even or χ≥2 whenk is odd, and for those having vanishing middle homology.) We prove an analog of the UBC for all other even-dimensional homology manifolds. Kuhnel conjectured that for every 2k-dimensional combinatorial manifold withn vertices, . We prove this conjecture for all 2k-dimensional homology manifolds withn vertices, wheren≥4k+3 orn≤3k+3. We also obtain upper bounds on the (weighted) sum of the Betti numbers of odd-dimensional homology manifolds.     

Fourier sums for the banach indicatrix

We prove the existence of a functionf(t), which is continuous on the interval [0, 1], is of bounded variation, minf(t)=0, maxf(t)=1, for which the integral $$I(x) = \frac{1}{\pi }\int_0^\infty {\left[ {\int_0^1 {cos} y(f(l) - x)\left| {df(l)} \right|} \right]} dy$$ diverges for almost all X ∈ [0, 1]. This result gives a negative answer to a question posed by Z. Ciesielski.

Certain Ergodic Properties of a Differential System on a Compact Differentiable Manifold

Let M ⁿ be an n-dimensional compact C ^∞-differentiable manifold, n ≥ 2, and let S be a C ¹-differential system on M ⁿ . The system induces a one-parameter C ¹ transformation group φ _t (−∞ < t < ∞) over M ⁿ and, thus, naturally induces a one-parameter transformation group of the tangent bundle of M ⁿ . The aim of this paper, in essence, is to study certain ergodic properties of this latter transformation group. Among various results established in the paper, we mention here only the following, which might describe quite well the nature of our study. (A) Let M be the set of regular points in M ⁿ of the differential system S. With respect to a given C ^∞ Riemannian metric of M ⁿ , we consider the bundle of all (n−2) spheres Q _x ⁿ⁻², x∈M, where Q _x ⁿ⁻² for each x consists of all unit tangent vectors of M ⁿ orthogonal to the trajectory through x. Then, the differential system S gives rise naturally to a one-parameter transformation group ψ _t ^# (−∞<t<∞) of . For an l-frame α = (u ₁, u ₂,⋯, u _l ) of M ⁿ at a point x in M, 1 ≥ l ≥ n−1, each u _i being in , we shall denote the volume of the parallelotope in the tangent space of M ⁿ at x with edges u ₁, u ₂,⋯, u _l by υ(α), and let . This is a continuous real function of t. Let
