Model-theory of vector-spaces over unspecified fields

Vector spaces over unspecified fields can be axiomatized as one-sorted structures, namely, abelian groups with the relation of parallelism. Parallelism is binary linear dependence. When equipped with the n-ary relation of linear dependence for some positive integer n, a vector-space is existentially closed if and only if it is n-dimensional over an algebraically closed field. In the signature with an n-ary predicate for linear dependence for each positive integer n, the theory of infinite-dimensional vector spaces over algebraically closed fields is the model-completion of the theory of vector spaces.      

Note on Weakly n-Dimensional Spaces

 Weakly n-dimensional spaces were first distinguished by Karl Menger. In this note we shall discuss three topics concerning this class of spaces: universal spaces, products, and the sum theorem. We prove that there is a universal space for the class of all weakly n-dimensional spaces, present a simpler proof of Tomaszewski’s result about the dimension of a product of weakly n-dimensional spaces, and show that there is an n-dimensional space which admits a pairwise disjoint countable closed cover by weakly n-dimensional subspaces but is not weakly n-dimensional itself.

On Countable Products of Finite Hausdorff Spaces

We investigate in ZF (i.e., Zermelo‐Fraenke set theory without the axiom of choice) conditions that are necessary and sufficient for countable products ∏_m∈ℕX_m of (a) finite Hausdorff spaces X_m resp. (b) Hausdorff spaces X_m with at most n points to be compact resp. Baire. Typica results: (i) Countable products of finite Hausdorff spaces are compact (resp. Baire) if and only if countable products of non‐empty finite sets are non‐empty. (ii) Countable products of discrete spaces with at most n + 1 points are compact (resp. Baire) if and only if countable products of non‐empty sets with at most n points are non‐empty.     

Products of compact spaces and the axiom of choice II

This is a continuation of [2]. We study the Tychonoff Compactness Theorem for various definitions of compactness and for various types of spaces (first and second countable spaces, Hausdorff spaces, and subspaces of ?^K). We also study well ordered Tychonoff products and the effect that the multiple choice axiom has on such products.

Summability Properties for Multiplication Operators on Banach Function Spaces

Consider a couple of Banach function spaces X and Y over the same measure space and the space X ^Y of multiplication operators from X into Y. In this paper we develop the setting for characterizing certain summability properties satisfied by the elements of X ^Y . At this end, using the “generalized Köthe duality” for Banach function spaces, we introduce a new class of norms for spaces consisting of infinite sums of products of the type xy with ${x \in X}Consider a couple of Banach function spaces X and Y over the same measure space and the space X ^Y of multiplication operators from X into Y.

Vertex operators and the geometry of moduli spaces of framed torsion-free sheaves

We define complexes of vector bundles on products of moduli spaces of framed rank r torsion-free sheaves on \mathbbP²{\mathbb{P}^2} . The top non-vanishing equivariant Chern classes of the cohomology of these complexes yield actions of the r-colored Heisenberg and Clifford algebras on the equivariant cohomology of the moduli spaces. In this way we obtain a geometric realization of the boson-fermion correspondence and related vertex operators.     

Multidimensional ultrametric pseudodifferential equations

We develop an analysis of wavelets and pseudodifferential operators on multidimensional ultrametric spaces which are defined as products of locally compact ultrametric spaces. We introduce bases of wavelets, spaces of generalized functions and the space D′₀(X) of generalized functions on a multidimensional ultrametric space. We also consider some family of pseudodifferential operators on multidimensional ultrametric spaces. The notions of Cauchy problem for ultrametric pseudodifferential equations and of ultrametric characteristics are introduced. We prove an existence theorem and describe all solutions for the Cauchy problem (an analog of the Kovalevskaya theorem).     

Bitopologies on products and ratios

The purpose of the paper is to extend the notions of splitting and jointly continuous topologies on function spaces to products of spaces, to present a new theory of duality between topologies on function spaces and topologies on products of spaces, and to generalize these theories to bitopological spaces. The author starts from the definitions well known in the literature. Bibliography: 1 title. Translated fromZapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 242, 1997, pp. 217–229. Translated by N. Yu.

On the Countable Tightness of Product Spaces

In this paper, we discuss the countable tightness of products of spaces which are quotient simages of locally separable metric spaces, or k-spaces with a star-countable k-network. The main result is that the following conditions are equivalent： （1） b = ω1; （2） t（Sω×Sω1） 〉 ω; （3） For any pair （X, Y）, which are k-spaces with a point-countable k-network consisting of cosmic subspaces, t（X×Y）≤ω if and only if one of X, Y is first countable or both X, Y are locally cosmic spaces. Many results on the k-space property of products of spaces with certain k-networks could be deduced from the above theorem.

Sobolev,Besov and Nikolskii fractional spaces: Imbeddings and comparisons for vector valued spaces on an interval

Summary We consider various fractional properties of regularity for vector valued functions defined on an interval I. In other words we study the functions in the Sobolev spaces W^s,p(I;E), in the Nikolskii spaces N^s,p(I;E), or in the Besov spaces B _{s, p} (I; E). Theses spaces are defined by integration and translation, and E is a Banach space. In particular we study the dependence on the parameters s, p and , that is imbeddings for different parameters. Moreover we compare each space to the others, and we give Lipschits continuity, existence of traces and q-integrability properties. These results rely only on integration techniques.     

Amenability of Banach algebras of compact operators

In this paper we study conditions on a Banach spaceX that ensure that the Banach algebraК(X) of compact operators is amenable. We give a symmetrized approximation property ofX which is proved to be such a condition. This property is satisfied by a wide range of Banach spaces including all the classical spaces. We then investigate which constructions of new Banach spaces from old ones preserve the property of carrying amenable algebras of compact operators. Roughly speaking, dual spaces, predual spaces and certain tensor products do inherit this property and direct sums do not. For direct sums this question is closely related to factorization of linear operators. In the final section we discuss some open questions, in particular, the converse problem of what properties ofX are implied by the amenability ofК(X).

Tensor products of Sobolev–Besov spaces and applications to approximation from the hyperbolic cross

Besov as well as Sobolev spaces of dominating mixed smoothness are shown to be tensor products of Besov and Sobolev spaces defined on R. Using this we derive several useful characterizations from the one-dimensional case to the d-dimensional situation. Finally, consequences for hyperbolic cross approximations, in particular for tensor product splines, are discussed.     

On ordinary and standard products of infinite family of <Emphasis Type="Italic">σ</Emphasis>-finite measures and some of their applications

We introduce notions of ordinary and standard products of σ-finite measures and prove their existence. This approach allows us to construct invariant extensions of ordinary and standard products of Haar measures. In particular, we construct translation-invariant extensions of ordinary and standard Lebesgue measures on ℝ^∞ and Rogers-Fremlin measures on ℓ ^∞, respectively, such that topological weights of quasi-metric spaces associated with these measures are maximal (i.e., 2 ^c ). We also solve some Fremlin problems concerned with an existence of uniform measures in Banach spaces.     

Generalized composition and Volterra type operators between QK spaces

Abstract

In this paper, the boundedness and compactness of the generalized composition operators and the products of Volterra type operators a nd composition operators between Q_K spaces are investigated. We also give a necessary condition for multiplication operators between Q_K spaces to be bounded or compact.     

Generalized Interpolation in Bergman Spaces and Extremal Functions

In a recent paper A. Schuster and K. Seip [SchS] have characterized interpolating sequences for Bergman spaces in terms of extremal functions (or canonical divisors). As these are natural analogues in Bergman spaces of Blaschke products, this yields a Carleson type condition for interpolation. We intend to generalize this idea to generalized free interpolation in weighted Bergman spaces B^{p, α} as was done by V. Vasyunin [Va1] and N. Nikolski [Ni1] (cf.also [Ha2]) in the case of Hardy spaces. In particular we get a strong necessary condition for free interpolation in B^{p, α} on zero–sets of B^{p, α}–functions that in the special case of finite unions of B^{p, α}–interpolating sequences turns out to be also sufficient.     

Anti-Wick Symbols for Infinite Products in K-Homology

We consider infinite products in K-homology. We study these products in relation with operators on filtered Hilbert spaces, and infinite iterations of universal constructions on C*-algebras. In particular, infinite tensor power of extensions of pseudodifferential operators on R are considered. We extend anti-Wick pseudodifferential operators to infinite tensor products of spaces of the type L ²(R), and compare our infinite tensor power construction with an extension of pseudodifferential operators on R . We show that the K-theory connecting maps coincide. We propose a natural definition of ellipticity for anti-Wick operators on R, compute the corresponding index, and draw some consequences concerning these operators.     

The Cauchy–Riemann equations on product domains

We establish the L ² theory for the Cauchy–Riemann equations on product domains provided that the Cauchy–Riemann operator has closed range on each factor. We deduce regularity of the canonical solution on (p, 1)-forms in special Sobolev spaces represented as tensor products of Sobolev spaces on the factors of the product. This leads to regularity results for smooth data.     

Convolution operators on spaces of entire functions

We show that nontrivial convolution operators on certain spaces of entire functions on E are frequently hypercyclic when E is a normed space and when E is the strong dual of a Fréchet nuclear space. We also obtain results of existence and approximation for convolution equations on certain spaces of entire functions on arbitrary locally convex spaces.
