On the usage of refined linear models for determiningN-way classification designs which are optimal for comparing test treatments with a standard treatment

Summary In this paper we consider experimental settings in whichv test treatments are to be compared to some control or standard treatment and where heterogeneity needs to be eliminated inn-directions. Using techniques similar to those used by Kunnert (1983,Ann. Statist.,11, 247–257) concerning the determination of optimal designs under a refined linear model, some methods are given for constructingn-way classification designs which areA- andMV-optimal for estimating elementary treatment differences involving the standard treatment fromm-way classification designs,m<n, which areA- andMV-optimal for estimating the same treatment differences. Examples are given for the casen=2 to show how the results obtained can be applied. This research was supported by NSF grant No. DMS-8401943.     

On -topological vector spaces generated by a co-tower of L-topological vector spaces

In this paper, a characterization for an I(L)-topological space to be generated by a given co-tower of L-topological spaces is obtained. Moreover, the relationship between some properties of an I(L)-topological vector space generated by a co-tower of L-topological vector spaces and the corresponding properties of the given co-tower of L-topological vector spaces is investigated. Our results show that if an I(L)-topological vector space generated by a co-tower of L-topological vector spaces has some properties, such as local convexity and local boundedness, then all L-topological vector spaces in the co-tower also have the same properties. But the converse is incorrect even in the case of I-topological vector space generated by a co-tower of classical topological vector spaces. Finally, we supply a necessary and sufficient condition for an I(L)-topological vector space generated by a co-tower of L-topological vector spaces with some properties, such as local convexity and local boundedness, to have such properties too.     

Residues of higher order and holomorphic vector fields

LetX ₁ andX ₂ be two holomorphic vector fields on a manifoldV with complex dimensionp. Assume that they have the same singular set . For all , it is known (after Chern-Bott) that each of the vector fields defines a residual characteristic classC ₁(V,X ₁)(resp.C ₁(V,X ₂)) inH ^2p (V, V-), which is a lift of the usual characteristic classC ₁ (V) of the tangent bundle. The differenceC ₁ (V,X ₂)-C ₁ (V,X ₁) belongs then to the image of in the exact sequence. In fact, there exists a canonical liftC ₁ (V,X ₁,X ₂) of this difference inH ^2p–1(V-): we will call itthe residual class of order 2 (associated toI, X ₁ andX ₂). This class is localized near the points whereX ₁ andX ₂ are colinear: we will explain this precisely in terms of Grothendieck residues. The formula that we obtain can be interpreted as a generalization of the purely algebraic identity, obtained from the general one as a byproduct: where ( ₁, , _p) and ( ₁,, _p ) denote two families of non-zero complex numbers, such that all denominators in this formula do not vanish. (This identity corresponds in fact to the case whereX ₁ andX ₂ are non-degenerate at the same isolated singular point.)If the _i 's (1ip) depend now differentiably (resp. holomorphically) on a real (resp. complex) parametert then, denoting by the derivative with respect tot, and assuming all numbers lying in a denominator not to be 0, we can deduce from the above identity the following derivation formula:     

Matrix problems and stable homotopy types of polyhedra

Adaptive application of operators in standard representation

Recently adaptive wavelet methods have been developed which can be shown to exhibit an asymptotically optimal accuracy/work balance for a wide class of variational problems including classical elliptic boundary value problems, boundary integral equations as well as certain classes of noncoercive problems such as saddle point problems. A core ingredient of these schemes is the approximate application of the involved operators in standard wavelet representation. Optimal computational complexity could be shown under the assumption that the entries in properly compressed standard representations are known or computable in average at unit cost. In this paper we propose concrete computational strategies and show under which circumstances this assumption is justified in the context of elliptic boundary value problems. Dedicated to Charles A. Micchelli on the occasion of his 60th birthday Mathematics subject classifications (2000) 41A25, 41A46, 65F99, 65N12, 65N55.

On a family of vector space categories

In continuation of our earlier work [2] we describe the indecomposable representations and the Auslander-Reiten quivers of a family of vector space categories playing an important role in the study of domestic finite dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field. The main results of the paper are applied in our paper [3] where we exhibit a wide class of almost sincere domestic simply connected algebras of arbitrary large finite global dimensions and describe their Auslander-Reiten quivers.

On the area swept under the occupation process of an M/M/1 queue in a busy period

We compute in this paper the distribution of the area swept under the occupation process of an M/M/1 queue during a busy period. For this purpose, we use the expression of the Laplace transform of the random variable established in earlier studies as a fraction of Bessel functions. To get information on the poles and the residues of , we take benefit of the fact that this function can be represented by a continued fraction. We then show that this continued fraction is the even part of an S fraction and we identify its successive denominators by means of Lommel polynomials. This allows us to numerically evaluate the poles and the residues. Numerical evidence shows that the poles are very close to the numbers as . This motivated us to formulate some conjectures, which lead to the derivation of the asymptotic behaviour of the poles and the residues. This is finally used to derive the asymptotic behaviour of the probability survivor function . The outstanding property of the random variable is that the poles accumulate at 0 and its tail does not exhibit a nice exponential decay but a decay of the form for some positive constants c and , which indicates that the random variable has a Weibull-like tail. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Global solutions of the Navier-Stokes equation with strong viscosity

Following Ebin and Marsden the Navier-Stokes equation is viewed as a perturbation of a geodesic flow on the group of volume preserving diffeomorphisms on a compact Riemannian manifold. Existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions for all position time is shown by taking a higher order diffusion term.Partial y supported by Alexander von Humboldt Foundation     

Non-linear partial differential equations via vector fields on homogeneous Banach manifolds

The vector field formulation of and the Sato-Segal-Wilson approach to soliton equations are related to each other in this paper. From Banach Lie groups associated with the MKdV hierarchy of differential equations, we derive homogeneous Banach manifolds of solutions on which these equations are realized by vector fields. In the same way, we obtain homogeneous Banach manifolds of solutions to the sine-Gordon equation. The scattering and inverse scattering maps in this set-up are also discussed.     

On vector variational inequalities

In this paper, we study vector variational inequalities. The concept of weaklyC-pseudomonotone operator is introduced. By employing the Fan lemma, we establish several existence results. The new results extend and unify existence results of vector variational inequalities for monotone operators under a Banach space setting. In particular, existence results for the generalized vector complementarity problem with weaklyC-pseudomonotone operators in Banach space are obtained.This research was partially supported by the National Science Council of the Republic of China under Contract NSC 84-2121-M-110-008.     

Implicit vector equilibrium problems with applications

Let X and Y be Hausdorff topological vector spaces, K a nonempty, closed, and convex subset of X, C : K → 2^Y a point-to-set mapping such that for any χ ε K, C(χ) is a pointed, closed, and convex cone in Y and int C(χ) ≠ 0. Given a mapping g : K → K and a vector valued bifunction f : K × K → Y, we consider the implicit vector equilibrium problem (IVEP) of finding χ^* ε K such that f g(χ^*), y) -int C(χ) for all y ε K. This problem generalizes the (scalar) implicit equilibrium problem and implicit variational inequality problem. We propose the dual of the implicit vector equilibrium problem (DIVEP) and establish the equivalence between (IVEP) and (DIVEP) under certain assumptions. Also, we give characterizations of the set of solutions for (IVP) in case of nonmonotonicity, weak C-pseudomonotonicity, C-pseudomonotonicity, and strict C-pseudomonotonicity, respectively. Under these assumptions, we conclude that the sets of solutions are nonempty, closed, and convex. Finally, we give some applications of (IVEP) to vector variational inequality problems and vector optimization problems.

Finiteness of the strong global dimension of radical square zero algebras

The strong global dimension of a finite dimensional algebra A is the maximum of the width of indecomposable bounded differential complexes of finite dimensional projective A-modules. We prove that the strong global dimension of a finite dimensional radical square zero algebra A over an algebraically closed field is finite if and only if A is piecewise hereditary. Moreover, we discuss results concerning the finiteness of the strong global dimension of algebras and the related problem on the density of the push-down functors associated to the canonical Galois coverings of the trivial extensions of algebras by their repetitive algebras.     

Rank 4 vector bundles on the quintic threefold

By the results of the author and Chiantini in [3], on a general quintic threefold X⊂P ⁴ the minimum integer p for which there exists a positive dimensional family of irreducible rank p vector bundles on X without intermediate cohomology is at least three. In this paper we show that p≤4, by constructing series of positive dimensional families of rank 4 vector bundles on X without intermediate cohomology. The general member of such family is an indecomposable bundle from the extension class Ext ¹ (E, F), for a suitable choice of the rank 2 ACM bundles E and F on X. The existence of such bundles of rank p=3 remains under question.

Stability of the Reeb vector field of H-contact manifolds

It is well known that a Hopf vector field on the unit sphere S ²ⁿ⁺¹ is the Reeb vector field of a natural Sasakian structure on S ²ⁿ⁺¹. A contact metric manifold whose Reeb vector field ξ is a harmonic vector field is called an H-contact manifold. Sasakian and K-contact manifolds, generalized (k, μ)-spaces and contact metric three-manifolds with ξ strongly normal, are H-contact manifolds. In this paper we study, in dimension three, the stability with respect to the energy of the Reeb vector field ξ for such special classes of H-contact manifolds (and with respect to the volume when ξ is also minimal) in terms of Webster scalar curvature. Finally, we extend for the Reeb vector field of a compact K-contact (2n+1)-manifold the obtained results for the Hopf vector fields to minimize the energy functional with mean curvature correction.

On the technique for passing to the limit in nonlinear elliptic equations

We consider the problem of passing to the limit in a sequence of nonlinear elliptic problems. The “limit” equation is known in advance, but it has a nonclassical structure; namely, it contains the p-Laplacian with variable exponent p = p(x). Such equations typically exhibit a special kind of nonuniqueness, known as the Lavrent’ev effect, and this is what makes passing to the limit nontrivial. Equations involving the p(x)-Laplacian occur in many problems of mathematical physics. Some applications are included in the present paper. In particular, we suggest an approach to the solvability analysis of a well-known coupled system in non-Newtonian hydrodynamics (“stationary thermo-rheological viscous flows”) without resorting to any smallness conditions.
