Differential operators on Hermitian Jacobi forms

We study multilinear differential operators on a space of Hermitian Jacobi forms as well as on a space of Hermitian modular forms of degree 2. First we define a heat operator and construct multilinear differential operators on a space of Hermitian Jacobi forms of degree 2. As a special case of these operators, we also study Rankin-Cohen type differential operators on a space of Hermitian Jacobi forms. And we construct multilinear differential operators on a space of Hermitian modular forms of degree 2 as an application of multilinear differential operators on Hermitian Jacobi forms.     

Boundary Value Problems for Various Boundaries of Hermitian Symmetric Spaces

The image of the Poisson transform on a principal series representations on a boundary component of a Hermitian symmetric space is considered. We prove that the image is characterized by a covariant differential operator on a homogeneous line bundle on the symmetric space.     

Maximal success durations for a semi-Markov process

Asymptotic distributional theorems are presented for the maximal sojourn duration on a semi-Markov chain and for the first passage time until a lengthy duration. Our analysis characterizes the limiting behavior of the longest “generalized success outcome” on a semi-Markov chain. The models include long runs on a single state, on a group of states, and on a set of transitions between states. Applications to success durations containing interruptions and to durations having infinite mean length are also presented.     

Dilations for systems of imprimitivity acting on Banach spaces

Motivated by a general dilation theory for operator-valued measures, framings and bounded linear maps on operator algebras, we consider the dilation theory of the above objects with special structures. We show that every operator-valued system of imprimitivity has a dilation to a probability spectral system of imprimitivity acting on a Banach space. This completely generalizes a well-known result which states that every frame representation of a countable group on a Hilbert space is unitarily equivalent to a subrepresentation of the left regular representation of the group. We also prove that isometric group representation induced framings on a Banach space can be dilated to unconditional bases with the same structure for a larger Banach space. This extends several known results on the dilations of frames induced by unitary group representations on Hilbert spaces.     

Measure free martingales

We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a sequence of functions on a set Ω under which there is a measure on Ω which renders the given sequence of functions a martingale. Further such a measure is unique if we impose a natural maximum entropy condition on the conditional probabilities.     

球面上的曲面插值

<正>1引言随着现代工业生产的飞速发展,航空、气象、环境监测等领域需要研究解决限制在曲面上的四维数据插值问题,即由有限个位置处的信息推测其它若干位置点的信息.例如,地球上某个地区的温度分布、降雨量分布、大气层的"温室效应"等;飞行器(飞机、火箭、导弹等)表面压力分布规律、肿瘤的生长规律等.这些在数学上都可归结为限制在曲面上的曲面插值与逼近问题.这个问题自Barnhill提出以后,人们针对限制在球面上     

Dixmier's theorem for sequentially order continuous Baire measures on compact spaces

We prove that a Baire measure (or a regular Borel measure) on a compact Hausdorff space is sequentially order continuous as a linear functional on the Banach space of all continuous functions if and only if it vanishes on meager Baire subsets, a result parallel to a much earlier theorem of Dixmier. We also give some results on the relation between sequentially order continuous measures on compact spaces and countably additive measures on Boolean algebras.

     

Irreducible projective representations of finite groups

The purpose of this paper is to prove a result on the number of irreducible projective representations of a finite group with respect to a given factor set and a group of linear characters acting on them. It includes a determination of the number of classes of projectively equivalent representations as well as a result of M. Osima on the classes of linearly equivalent representations. Osima proved his result by defining and calculating on irreducible projective Brauer characters, whereas the method used here is based on Brauer's well-known result for the linear modular representations and an induction argument on suitable coverings.     

Rotational symmetry and properties of the ancient solutions of Ricci flow on surfaces

We give a simple proof for the rotational symmetry of ancient solutions of Ricci flow on surfaces. As a consequence we obtain a simple proof of some results of Daskalopoulos, Hamilton and Sesum on the a priori estimates for the ancient solutions of Ricci flow on surfaces. We also give a simple proof for the solution to be a Rosenau solution under some mild conditions on the solutions of Ricci flow on surfaces.     

On the existence of nontrivial extremal metrics on complete noncompact surfaces

In this paper, we consider the 2-dimensional local Calabi flow on a complete noncompact surface . Then, based on the Harnack-type estimate, we show the long-time existence and asymptotic convergence of a subsequence of solutions of such a flow on with and bounded from above by a negative constant on a ball. For its applications, this will lead to the existence of extremal metrics on a complete noncompact surface of finite topological type. In particular, there exists an extremal metric of nonconstant Gaussian curvature on or Received: 21 June 2001 / 18 January 2002 / Published online: 27 June 2002 Research supported in part by NSC and NCTS.     

Approximations of stable actions on $ \Bbb {R} $-trees

This article shows how to approximate a stable action of a finitely presented group on an -tree by a simplicial one while keeping control over arc stabilizers. For instance, every small action of a hyperbolic group on an -tree can be approximated by a small action of the same group on a simplicial tree. The techniques we use highly rely on Rips's study of stable actions on -trees and on the dynamical study of exotic components by D. Gaboriau. Received: 22 October, 1997

Intrinsic equations for a relaxed elastic line on an oriented surface

Hilbert and Cohn-Vossen [2, p. 221] incorrectly suggested a flexible knitting needle, constrained to conform to a surface, as one model for a geodesic on a surface. This model actually gives a relaxed elastic line on the surface, and is not generally a geodesic unless the surface lies in a plane or on a sphere.In this paper we derive the intrinsic equations for a relaxed elastic line on an oriented surface. This formulation should give a more direct and more geometric approach to questions concerning relaxed elastic lines on a surface. We apply this formulation to give alternate proofs of some results of [3] found by the less direct method of Lagrange multipliers and to give additional results about relaxed elastic lines on various surfaces. For further considerations of a relaxed elastic line on a surface as a model of the DNA molecule, see [3].Partially supported by NIH grant GM 36284-01.     

Extension of Bernstein polynomials to infinite dimensional case

The purpose of this paper is to study some new concrete approximation processes for continuous vector-valued mappings defined on the infinite dimensional cube or on a subset of a real Hilbert space. In both cases these operators are modelled on classical Bernstein polynomials and represent a possible extension to an infinite dimensional setting.The same idea is generalized to obtain from a given approximation process for function defined on a real interval a new approximation process for vector-valued mappings defined on subsets of a real Hilbert space.     

Reconstruction matrices and calibration relations for minimal splines

On a nonuniform gird, we consider twice continuously differentiable splines of third order and obtain calibration relations expressing the coordinate splines on the original grid as a linear combination of splines of the same type on a refined grid. We also obtain calibration relations representing the coordinate splines on an enlarged grid as a linear combination of splines of the same type on the original grid. We derive the reconstruction matrices on an interval and on a segment for the space of third order splines associated with infinite and finite nonuniform grids respectively.

Minisum collection depots location problem with multiple facilities on a network

We investigate the problem of locating a set of service facilities that need to service customers on a network. To provide service, a server has to visit both the demand node and one of several collection depots. We employ the criterion of minimizing the weighted sum of round trip distances. We prove that there exists a dominating location set for the problem on a general network. The properties of the solution on a tree and on a cycle are discussed. The problem of locating service facilities and collection depots simultaneously is also studied. To solve the problem on a general network, we suggest a Lagrangian relaxation imbedded branch-and-bound algorithm. Computational results are reported.     

Paths on polymatroids

This paper establishes bounds on the length of certain strictly monotone paths, relative to a given linear objective function, on a polymatroid or on the base of a polymatroid. Specialized bounds are given for a strict polymatroid and for a matroid polyhedron. Bounds on the diameter are included.     

Nonsmooth Optimization Techniques on Riemannian Manifolds

We present the notion of weakly metrically regular functions on manifolds. Then, a sufficient condition for a real valued function defined on a complete Riemannian manifold to be weakly metrically regular is obtained, and two optimization problems on Riemannian manifolds are considered. Moreover, we present a generalization of the Palais–Smale condition for lower semicontinuous functions defined on manifolds. Then, we use this notion to obtain necessary conditions of optimality for a general minimization problem on complete Riemannian manifolds.
