Operator Equations and Duality Mappings in Sobolev Spaces with Variable Exponents

After studying in a previous work the smoothness of the space UΓ0={u∈W1,p(·)(Ω);u=0 on Γ0 Γ=Ω},where dΓ-measΓ0>0,with p(·)∈C(Ω)and p(x)>1 for all x∈Ω,the authors study in this paper the strict and uniform convexity as well as some special properties of duality mappings defined on the same space.The results obtained in this direction are used for proving existence results for operator equations having the form Ju=Nfu,where J is a duality mapping on UΓ0 corresponding to the gauge function,and Nf is the Nemytskij operator generated by a Carath′eodory function f satisfying an appropriate growth condition ensuring that Nf may be viewed as acting from UΓ0 into its dual.     

Existence and Uniqueness of Renormalized Solution of Nonlinear Degenerated Elliptic Problems

In this paper, We study a general class of nonlinear degenerated elliptic problems associated with the differential inclusion β(u)-div(a(x, Du)+ F(u)) ■ f in Ω, where f ∈ L1 Ω. A vector field a(·,·) is a Carath′eodory function. Using truncation techniques and the generalized monotonicity method in the functional spaces we prove the existence of renormalized solutions for general L1-data. Under an additional strict monotonicity assumption uniqueness of the renormalized solution is established.     

SUPERCONVERGENCE OF GRADIENT RECOVERY SCHEMES ON GRADED MESHES FOR CORNER SINGULARITIES

For the linear finite element solution to the Poisson equation, we show that supercon- vergence exists for a type of graded meshes for corner singularities in polygonal domains. In particular, we prove that the L^2-projection from the piecewise constant field △↓UN to the continuous and piecewise linear finite element space gives a better approximation of △↓U in the Hi-norm. In contrast to the existing superconvergence results, we do not assume high regularity of the exact solution.     

AN ANISOTROPIC NONCONFORMING FINITE ELEMENT METHOD FOR APPROXIMATING A CLASS OF NONLINEAR SOBOLEV EQUATIONS

An anisotropic nonconforming finite element method is presented for a class of nonlinear Sobolev equations. The optimal error estimates and supercloseness are obtained for both semi-discrete and fully-discrete approximate schemes, which are the same as the traditional finite element methods. In addition, the global superconvergence is derived through the postprocessing technique. Numerical experiments are included to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed method.     

Lower bound for quantum integration error on anisotropic Sobolev classes

We study the approximation of the integration of multivariate functions in the quantum model of computation. Using a new reduction approach we obtain a lower bound of the n-th minimal query error on anisotropic Sobolev class R（Wpr（[0, 1]d）） （r R＋d）. Then combining this result with our previous one we determine the optimal bound of n-th minimal query error for anisotropic Hblder- Nikolskii class R（H∞r（[0,1]d）） and Sobolev class R（W∞r（[0,1]d））. The results show that for these two types of classes the quantum algorithms give significant speed up over classical deterministic and randomized algorithms.

Sobolev spaces of Banach-valued functions associated with a Markov process

Summary We discuss Sobolev spaces of Banach-valued functions. They are extensions of Sobolev spaces of scalar functions. We use a gamma transform of a semigroup associated with a Markov process. A typical example is the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process on the Wiener space.     

PREDUAL SPACES FOR Q SPACES

To find the predual spaces Pα（R^n） of Qα（R^n） is an important motivation in the study of Q spaces. In this article, wavelet methods are used to solve this problem in a constructive way. First, an wavelet tent atomic characterization of Pα（Rn） is given, then its usual atomic characterization and Poisson extension characterization are given. Finally, the continuity on Pα of Calderon-Zygmund operators is studied, and the result can be also applied to give the Morrey characterization of Pα（Rn）.     

THE ERGODICITY FOR BI-IMMIGRATION BIRTH AND DEATH PROCESSES IN RANDOM ENVIRONMENT

The concepts of bi-immigration birth and death density matrix in random environment and bi-immigration birth and death process in random environment are introduced. For any bi-immigration birth and death matrix in random environment Q（θ） with birth rate λ 〈 death rate μ, the following results are proved, （1） there is an unique q-process in random environment, P^-（θ＊（0）;t） = （p^-（θ^＊（0）;t,i,j）,i,j ≥ 0）, which is ergodic, that is, lim t→∞（θ^＊（0）;t,i,j） = π^-（θ^＊（0）;j） ≥0 does not depend on i ≥ 0 and ∑j≥0π （θ＊（0）;j） = 1, （2） there is a bi-immigration birth and death process in random enjvironment （X^＊ = {X^＊,t ≥ 0},ε^＊ = {εt,t ∈ （-∞, ∞）}） with random transition matrix P^-（θ^＊ （0）;t） such that X^＊ is a strictly stationary process.     

Analytic regularity of Stokes flow on polygonal domains in countably weighted Sobolev spaces

We investigate the analytic regularity of the Stokes problem in a polygonal domain with straight sides and piecewise analytic data. We establish a shift theorem in weighted Sobolev spaces of arbitrary order with explicit control of the order-dependence of the constants. The shift-theorem in the framework of countably weighted Sobolev spaces implies in particular interior analyticity and Gevrey-type analytic regularity near the corners.     

Complex Interpolation of Weighted Besov and Lizorkin–Triebel Spaces

Semi-linear problems in infinite dimensions

We prove existence, smoothness and ergodicity results for semilinear parabolic problems on infinite dimensional spaces assuming the Logarithmic Sobolev inequality is satisfied. As a consequence we construct a class of nonlinear Markov semigroup which are hypercontractive.     

Nonlinear anisotropic elliptic equations in with variable exponents and locally integrable data

In this paper, we prove existence and regularity results for weak solutions in the framework of anisotropic Sobolev spaces for a class of nonlinear anisotropic elliptic equations in the whole with variable exponents and locally integrable data. Our approach is based on the anisotropic Sobolev inequality, a smoothness, and compactness results. The functional setting involves Lebesgue–Sobolev spaces with variable exponents.

Error estimates for scattered data interpolation on spheres

We study Sobolev type estimates for the approximation order resulting from using strictly positive definite kernels to do interpolation on the -sphere. The interpolation knots are scattered. Our approach partly follows the general theory of Golomb and Weinberger and related estimates. These error estimates are then based on series expansions of smooth functions in terms of spherical harmonics. The Markov inequality for spherical harmonics is essential to our analysis and is used in order to find lower bounds for certain sampling operators on spaces of spherical harmonics.

     

Characterizing centralizers and generalized derivations on triangular algebras by acting on zero product

Let U = Tri(A,M,B) be a triangular ring, where A and B are unital rings, and M is a faithful (A, B)-bimodule. It is shown that an additive map Φ on U is centralized at zero point (i.e., Φ(A)B = AΦ(B) = 0 whenever AB = 0) if and only if it is a centralizer. Let δ : U → U be an additive map. It is also shown that the following four conditions are equivalent: (1) δ is specially generalized derivable at zero point, i.e., δ(AB) = δ(A)B + Aδ(B) Aδ(I)B whenever AB = 0; (2) δ is generalized derivable at zero point, i.e., there exist additive maps τ1 and τ2 on U derivable at zero point such that δ(AB) = δ(A)B + Aτ1 (B) = τ2 (A)B + Aδ(B) whenever AB = 0; (3) δ is a special generalized derivation; (4) δ is a generalized derivation. These results are then applied to nest algebras of Banach space.     

Weighted Estimates for the Maximal Commutator of Singular Integral Operator on Spaces of Homogeneous Type

Weighted estimates with general weights are established for the maximal operator associated with the commutator generated by singular integral operator and BMO function on spaces of homogeneous type, where the associated kernel satisfies the HSlder condition on the first variable and some condition which is fairly weaker than the Holder condition on the second variable.     

Coarse Embedding into Uniformly Convex Banach Spaces

In this paper, the author studies the coarse embedding into uniformly convex Banach spaces. The author proves that the property of coarse embedding into Banach spaces can be preserved under taking the union of the metric spaces under certain conditions. As an application, for a group G strongly relatively hyperbolic to a subgroup H,the author proves that B(n) = {g ∈ G | |g|S∪H≤ n} admits a coarse embedding into a uniformly convex Banach space if H does.     

Boundedness for Hardy Type Operators on Herz Spaces with Variable Exponents

In this paper, we will prove the boundedness of Hardy type operators Hβ(x) and H*β(x) of variable order β(x) on Herz spaces Kα(·)p(·),q and Kα(·)p(·),q' where α(·) and p(·)are both variable.     

Regularity for quasi-linear degenerate elliptic equations with VMO coefficients

In this paper we establish an interior regularity of weak solution for quasi-linear degenerate elliptic equations under the subcritical growth if its coefficient matrix A（x, u） satisfies a VMO condition in the variable x uniformly with respect to all u, and the lower order item B（x, u, △↓u） satisfies the subcritical growth （1.2）. In particular, when F（x） ∈ L^q（Ω） and f（x） ∈ L^γ（Ω） with q,γ 〉 for any 1 〈 p 〈 ＋∞, we obtain interior HSlder continuity of any weak solution of （1.1） u with an index κ = min{1 - n/q, 1 - n/γ}.     

Discontinuous Sturm-Liouville problems involving an abstract linear operator

In this paper we introduce to consideration a new type boundary value problems consisting of an ``Sturm-Liouville" equation on two disjoint intervals as $$-p(x)y^{\prime \prime }+ q(x)y+\mathfrak{B}y|_{x} = \mu y , x\in [a,c)\cup(c,b]$$ together with two end-point conditions whose coefficients depend linearly on the eigenvalue parameter, and two supplementary so-called transmission conditions, involving linearly left-hand and right-hand values of the solution and its derivatives at point of interaction $x=c,$ where $\mathfrak{B}:L_{2}(a,c)\oplus L_{2}(c,b)\rightarrow L_{2}(a,c)\oplus L_{2}(c,b)$ is an abstract linear operator, non-selfadjoint in general. For self-adjoint realization of the pure differential part of the main problem we define ``alternative" inner products in Sobolev spaces, ``incorporating" with the boundary-transmission conditions. Then by suggesting an own approaches we establish such properties as topological isomorphism and coercive solvability of the corresponding nonhomogeneous problem and prove compactness of the resolvent operator in these Sobolev spaces. Finally, we prove that the spectrum of the considered eigenvalue problem is discrete and derive asymptotic formulas for the eigenvalues. Note that the obtained results are new even in the case when the equation is not involved an abstract linear operator $\mathfrak{B}.$
