Duality for frames in Krein spaces

A J‐frame for a Krein space is in particular a frame for (in the Hilbert space sense). But it is also compatible with the indefinite inner‐product of , meaning that it determines a pair of maximal uniformly definite subspaces, an analogue to the maximal dual pair associated with an orthonormal basis in a Krein space. This work is devoted to study duality for J‐frames in Krein spaces. Also, tight and Parseval J‐frames are defined and characterized.     

On regularization of a certain class of distributions

We construct a regularization of a distribution of the form , where f is a tempered distribution and a function is infinitely differentiable outside a semialgebraic set N and has power singularities together with any its derivative.     

Behaviors of multivariable finite Euler products in probabilistic view

The finite Euler product is known one of the classical zeta functions in number theory. In [1], [2] and [3], we have introduced some multivariable zeta functions and studied their definable probability distributions on . They include functions which generate infinitely divisible, not infinitely divisible characteristic functions and not even to be characteristic functions. In this paper, we treat some multivariable finite Euler products and show how they behave in view of such properties.     

Maximal functions for multipliers on stratified groups

In this paper we obtain a refined $L^p$ bound for maximal functions of the multiplier operators on stratified groups and maximal functions of the multi‐parameter multipliers on product spaces of stratified groups. As an application we find a refined $L^p$ bound for maximal functions of joint spectral multipliers on Heisenberg group.     

Generalized Cauchy–Hankel matrices and their applications to subnormal operators

It is well‐known that for a general operator T on Hilbert space, if T is subnormal, then is subnormal for all natural numbers . It is also well‐known that if T is hyponormal, then T ² need not be hyponormal. However, for a unilateral weighted shift , the hyponormality of (detected by the condition for all ) does imply the hyponormality of every power . Conversely, we easily see that for a weighted shift is not hyponormal, therefore not subnormal, but is subnormal for all . Hence, it is interesting to note when for some , the subnormality of implies the subnormality of T . In this article, we construct a non trivial large class of weighted shifts such that for some , the subnormality of guarantees the subnormality of . We also prove that there are weighted shifts with non‐constant tail such that hyponormality of a power or powers does not guarantee hyponormality of the original one. Our results have a partial connection to the following two long‐open problems in Operator Theory: (i) characterize the subnormal operators having a square root; (ii) classify all subnormal operators whose square roots are also subnormal. Our results partially depend on new formulas for the determinant of generalized Cauchy–Hankel matrices and on criteria for their positive semi‐definiteness.     

On admissible topologies in JB*‐triples

Given a complex JB*‐triple X, we define and study admissible topologies on X, i.e., locally convex topologies τ on X coarser than the norm topology, invariant under the group of surjective linear isometries of X, and such that the triple product is jointly ‐continuous on bounded subsets of X. As a consequence of the joint ‐continuity of the triple product, all holomorphic automorphisms of the open unit ball are homeomorphisms of and the natural action is jointly ‐continuous on .     

On the discretisation in time of the stochastic Allen–Cahn equation

We consider the stochastic Allen–Cahn equation perturbed by smooth additive Gaussian noise in a bounded spatial domain with smooth boundary in dimension , and study the semidiscretisation in time of the equation by an Euler type split‐step method with step size . We show that the method converges strongly with a rate . By means of a perturbation argument, we also establish the strong convergence of the standard backward Euler scheme with the same rate.

However, for special cases the solution is known for some parameters p and q . In this paper the current status of this problem is described and discussed mainly for the case In particular, some new scales of characterizations in classical situations are described, some new proofs and results are given and open questions are raised.     

A note about Volterra operators on weighted Banach spaces of entire functions

We characterize boundedness, compactness and weak compactness of Volterra operators acting between different weighted Banach spaces of entire functions with sup‐norms in terms of the symbol g; thus we complement recent work by Bassallote, Contreras, Hernández‐Mancera, Martín and Paul 3 for spaces of holomorphic functions on the disc and by Constantin and Peláez 16 for reflexive weighted Fock spaces.     

Cohomological characterisation of monads

Let X be an n‐dimensional smooth projective variety with an n‐block collection , with , of coherent sheaves on X that generate the bounded derived category . We give a cohomological characterisation of torsion‐free sheaves on X that are the cohomology of monads of the form where . We apply the result to get a cohomological characterisation when X is the projective space, the smooth hyperquadric or the Fano threefold V₅. We construct a family of monads on a Segre variety and apply our main result to this family.     

Necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness of weighted Hardy operators in Hölder spaces

We study one‐ and multi‐dimensional weighted Hardy operators on functions with Hölder‐type behavior. As a main result, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on the power weight under which both the left and right hand sided Hardy operators map, roughly speaking, functions with the Hölder behavior only at the singular point to functions differentiable for and bounded after multiplication by a power weight. As a consequence, this implies necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness in Hölder spaces due to the corresponding imbeddings. In the multi‐dimensional case we provide, in fact, stronger Hardy inequalities via spherical means. We also separately consider the case of functions with Hölder‐type behavior at infinity (Hölder spaces on the compactified ).     

Nefness of adjoint bundles for ample vector bundles of corank 3

We show that a continuum of solutions bifurcates out from the principal eigenvalue λ₁ of the problem and, conversely.     

On massive sets for subordinated random walks

We study massive (reccurent) sets with respect to a certain random walk defined on the integer lattice , . Our random walk is obtained from the simple random walk S on by the procedure of discrete subordination. can be regarded as a discrete space and time counterpart of the symmetric α‐stable Lévy process in . In the case we show that some remarkable proper subsets of , e.g. the set of primes, are massive whereas some proper subsets of such as the Leitmann primes are massive/non‐massive depending on the function h. Our results can be regarded as an extension of the results of McKean (1961) about massiveness of the set of primes for the simple random walk in . In the case we study massiveness of thorns and their proper subsets. The case is presented in the recent paper Bendikov and Cygan 2 .     

A note on a generalization of the Schwarz theorem about the equality of mixed partial derivatives

We provide a generalization of the classical Schwarz theorem about the equality of mixed partial derivatives. More precisely we extend it to a Riemannian manifold , by proving the following statement: if is a couple of commuting vector fields on M and are such that the set is superdense at a certain point , then .
