Actions of symbolic dynamical systems on C*-algebras. II. Simplicity of C*-symbolic crossed products and some examples

A C*-symbolic dynamical system ${(\mathcal{A}, \rho, \Sigma)}A C*-symbolic dynamical system (A, r, S){(\mathcal{A}, \rho, \Sigma)} consists of a unital C*-algebra A{\mathcal{A}} and a finite family { r_a }_{a ? S}{\{ \rho_\alpha \}_{\alpha \in \Sigma}} of endomorphisms ρ _α of A{\mathcal{A}} indexed by symbols α of Σ satisfying some conditions. The endomorphisms r_a, a ? S{\rho_\alpha, \alpha \in \Sigma } yield both a subshift Λ and a C*-algebra of a Hilbert C*-bimodule. The obtained C*-algebra is regarded as a crossed product of A{\mathcal{A}} by the subshift Λ. We will study simplicity condition of these C*-algebras. Some examples such as irrational rotation Cuntz–Krieger algebras will be studied.     

On the Right (Left) Invertible Completions for Operator Matrices

Let ${\mathcal {H}_{1}}Let H₁{\mathcal {H}_{1}} and H₂{\mathcal {H}_{2}} be separable Hilbert spaces, and let A ? B(H₁), B ? B(H₂){A \in \mathcal {B}(\mathcal {H}_{1}),\, B \in \mathcal {B}(\mathcal {H}_{2})} and C ? B(H₂, H₁){C \in \mathcal {B}(\mathcal {H}_{2},\, \mathcal {H}_{1})} be given operators. A necessary and sufficient condition is given for ${\left(\begin{smallmatrix}A &\enspace C\\ X &\enspace B \end{smallmatrix}\right)}${\left(\begin{smallmatrix}A &\enspace C\\ X &\enspace B \end{smallmatrix}\right)} to be a right (left) invertible operator for some X ? B(H₁, H₂){X \in \mathcal {B}(\mathcal {H}_{1},\, \mathcal {H}_{2})}. Furthermore, some related results are obtained.     

A Noncommutative Version of <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> and Characterizations of Subdiagonal Algebras

Let M{\mathcal M} be a σ-finite von Neumann algebra and \mathfrak A{\mathfrak A} a maximal subdiagonal algebra of M{\mathcal M} with respect to a faithful normal conditional expectation F{\Phi} . Based on Haagerup’s noncommutative L ^p space L^p(M){L^p(\mathcal M)} associated with M{\mathcal M} , we give a noncommutative version of H ^p space relative to \mathfrak A{\mathfrak A} . If h ₀ is the image of a faithful normal state j{\varphi} in L¹(M){L^1(\mathcal M)} such that j°F = j{\varphi\circ \Phi=\varphi} , then it is shown that the closure of {\mathfrak Ah₀^\frac1p}{\{\mathfrak Ah_0^{\frac1p}\}} in L^p(M){L^p(\mathcal M)} for 1 ≤ p < ∞ is independent of the choice of the state preserving F{\Phi} . Moreover, several characterizations for a subalgebra of the von Neumann algebra M{\mathcal M} to be a maximal subdiagonal algebra are given.     

Counting Ω-ideals

Let ${\mathbb{A}}Let \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} be a universal algebra of signature Ω, and let I{\mathcal{I}} be an ideal in the Boolean algebra P_\mathbbA{\mathcal{P}_{\mathbb{A}}} of all subsets of \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} . We say that I{\mathcal{I}} is an Ω-ideal if I{\mathcal{I}} contains all finite subsets of \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} and f(Aⁿ) ? I{f(A^{n}) \in \mathcal{I}} for every n-ary operation f ? W{f \in \Omega} and every A ? I{A \in \mathcal{I}} . We prove that there are 2^2à₀{2^{2^{\aleph_0}}} Ω-ideals in P_\mathbbA{\mathcal{P}_{\mathbb{A}}} provided that \mathbbA{\mathbb{A}} is countably infinite and Ω is countable.     

The Asymptotic Schottky Problem

Let ${\mathcal{M}_g}Let M_g{\mathcal{M}_g} denote the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces of genus g and let A_g{\mathcal{A}_g} be the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension g. Let J : M_g ? A_g{J : \mathcal{M}_g \rightarrow \mathcal{A}_g} be the map which associates to a Riemann surface its Jacobian. The map J is injective, and the image J_g : = J(M_g){\mathcal{J}_g := J(\mathcal{M}_g)} is contained in a proper subvariety of A_g{\mathcal{A}_g} when g ≥  4. The classical and long-studied Schottky problem is to characterize the Jacobian locus J_g{\mathcal{J}_g} in A_g{\mathcal{A}_g}. In this paper we address a large scale version of this problem posed by Farb and called the coarse Schottky problem: What does J_g{\mathcal{J}_g} look like “from far away”, or how “dense” is J_g{\mathcal{J}_g} in the sense of coarse geometry? The large scale geometry of A_g{\mathcal{A}_g} is encoded in its asymptotic cone, Cone_￥(A_g){{\rm Cone}_\infty(\mathcal{A}_g)}, which is a Euclidean simplicial cone of real dimension g. Our main result asserts that the Jacobian locus J_g{\mathcal{J}_g} is “coarsely dense” in A_g{\mathcal{A}_g}, which implies that the subset of Cone_￥(A_g){{\rm Cone}_\infty(\mathcal{A}_g)} determined by J_g{\mathcal{J}_g} actually coincides with this cone. The proof shows that the Jacobian locus of hyperelliptic curves is coarsely dense in A_g{\mathcal{A}_g} as well. We also study the boundary points of the Jacobian locus J_g{\mathcal{J}_g} in A_g{\mathcal{A}_g} and in the Baily–Borel and the Borel–Serre compactification. We show that for large genus g the set of boundary points of J_g{\mathcal{J}_g} in these compactifications is “small”.     

Averaging of directional derivatives in vertices of nonobtuse regular triangulations

For a shape-regular triangulation ${\mathcal{T}_h}For a shape-regular triangulation _h{\mathcal{T}_h} without obtuse angles of a bounded polygonal domain W ì ?²{\Omega\subset\Re^2} , let L_h{\mathcal L_h} be the space of continuous functions linear on the triangles from T_h{\mathcal{T}_h} and Π _h the interpolation operator from C([`(W)]){C(\overline\Omega)} to L<sub>h</sub>{\mathcal L_h} . This paper is devoted to the following classical problem: Find a second-order approximation of the derivative ?u/?z(a){\partial u/\partial z(a)} in a direction z of a function u ? C<sup>3</sup>([`(W)]){u\in C^3(\overline\Omega)} in a vertex a in the form of a linear combination of the constant directional derivatives ?P_h(u)/?z{\partial \Pi_h(u)/\partial z} on the triangles surrounding a. An effective procedure for such an approximation is presented, its error is proved to be of the size O(h ²), an operator W_h: L_h?L_h×L_h{\mbox{W}_h: \mathcal L_h\longrightarrow\mathcal L_h\times\mathcal L_h} relating a second-order approximation W _h [Π _h (u)] of ?u{\nabla u} to every u ? C³([`(W)]){u\in C^3(\overline\Omega)} is constructed and shown to be a so-called recovery operator. The accuracy of the presented approximation is compared with the accuracies of the local approximations by other known techniques numerically.     

A priori estimates for a class of degenerate elliptic equations

In this paper we investigate the regularity of solutions for the following degenerate partial differential equation $$\left \{\begin{array}{ll} -\Delta_p u + u = f \qquad {\rm in} \,\Omega,\\ \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu} = 0 \qquad \qquad \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, {\rm on} \,\partial \Omega, \end{array}\right.$$ when ${f \in L^q(\Omega), p > 2}$ and q ≥ 2. If u is a weak solution in ${W^{1, p}(\Omega)}$ , we obtain estimates for u in the Nikolskii space ${\mathcal{N}^{1+2/r,r}(\Omega)}$ , where r = q(p ? 2) + 2, in terms of the L ^q norm of f. In particular, due to imbedding theorems of Nikolskii spaces into Sobolev spaces, we conclude that ${\|u\|^r_{W^{1 + 2/r - \epsilon, r}(\Omega)} \leq C(\|f\|_{L^q(\Omega)}^q + \| f\|^{r}_{L^q(\Omega)} + \|f\|^{2r/p}_{L^q(\Omega)})}$ for every ${\epsilon > 0}$ sufficiently small. Moreover, we prove that the resolvent operator is continuous and compact in ${W^{1,r}(\Omega)}$ .     

Solutions to Polynomial Generalized Bers–Vekua Equations in Clifford Analysis

In this paper, we mainly study polynomial generalized Vekua-type equation _boxclose)w=0{p(\mathcal{D})w=0} and polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation p(D)w=0{p(\mathcal{\underline{D}})w=0} defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}} where D{\mathcal{D}} and D{\mathcal{\underline{D}}} mean generalized Vekua-type operator and generalized Bers–Vekua operator, respectively. Using Clifford algebra, we obtain the Fischer-type decomposition theorems for the solutions to these equations including (D-l)^kw=0,(D-l)^kw=0(k ? \mathbbN){\left(\mathcal{D}-\lambda\right)^{k}w=0,\left(\mathcal {\underline{D}}-\lambda\right)^{k}w=0\left(k\in\mathbb{N}\right)} with complex parameter λ as special cases, which derive the Almansi-type decomposition theorems for iterated generalized Bers–Vekua equation and polynomial generalized Cauchy–Riemann equation defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}}. Making use of the decomposition theorems we give the solutions to polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}} under some conditions. Furthermore we discuss inhomogeneous polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation p(D)w=v{p(\mathcal{\underline{D}})w=v} defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}}, and develop the structure of the solutions to inhomogeneous polynomial generalized Bers–Vekua equation p(D)w=v{p(\mathcal{\underline{D}})w=v} defined in W ì \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}}.     

Operator-valued H ∞-calculus in Inter- and Extrapolation Spaces

We generalize a Hilbert space result by Auscher, McIntosh and Nahmod to arbitrary Banach spaces X and to not densely defined injective sectorial operators A. A convenient tool proves to be a certain universal extrapolation space associated with A. We characterize the real interpolation space ( X,D( A^a ) ?R( A^a ) )_q,p{\left( {X,\mathcal{D}{\left( {A^{\alpha } } \right)} \cap \mathcal{R}{\left( {A^{\alpha } } \right)}} \right)}_{{\theta ,p}} as

Absolutely convergent fourier series. An improvement of the Beurling-Helson theorem

We consider the space A(\mathbbT)A(\mathbb{T}) of all continuous functions f on the circle \mathbbT\mathbb{T} such that the sequence of Fourier coefficients [^(f)] = { [^(f)]( k ), k ? \mathbbZ }\hat f = \left\{ {\hat f\left( k \right), k \in \mathbb{Z}} \right\} belongs to l ¹(ℤ). The norm on A(\mathbbT)A(\mathbb{T}) is defined by || f ||_A(\mathbbT) = || [^(f)] ||_{l¹ (\mathbbZ)}\left\| f \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = \left\| {\hat f} \right\|_{l^1 (\mathbb{Z})}. According to the well-known Beurling-Helson theorem, if f:\mathbbT ? \mathbbT\phi :\mathbb{T} \to \mathbb{T} is a continuous mapping such that || e^inf ||_A(\mathbbT) = O(1)\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = O(1), n ∈ ℤ then φ is linear. It was conjectured by Kahane that the same conclusion about φ is true under the assumption that || e^inf ||_A(\mathbbT) = o( log| n | )\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\log \left| n \right|} \right). We show that if $\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\left( {{{\log \log \left| n \right|} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\log \log \left| n \right|} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right)^{1/12} } \right)$\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\left( {{{\log \log \left| n \right|} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\log \log \left| n \right|} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right)^{1/12} } \right), then φ is linear.     

Jordan Derivations of Reflexive Algebras

Let ${\mathcal L}Let L{\mathcal L} be a subspace lattice on a Banach space X and suppose that ú{L ? L: L_- < X}=X{\vee\{L\in\mathcal L: L_- < X\}=X} or ${\land\{L_- : L \in \mathcal L, L>(0)\}=(0)}${\land\{L_- : L \in \mathcal L, L>(0)\}=(0)} . Then each Jordan derivation from AlgL{\mathcal L} into B(X) is a derivation. This result can apply to completely distributive subspace lattice algebras, J{\mathcal J} -subspace lattice algebras and reflexive algebras with the non-trivial largest or smallest invariant subspace.     

Cartan-Dieudonné Theorem for {\mathcal {A}}-Modules

Like the classical Cartan-Dieudonné theorem, the sheaf-theoretic version shows that A{\mathcal {A}}-isometries on a convenient A{\mathcal {A}}-module E{\mathcal {E}} of rank n can be decomposed in at most n orthogonal symmetries (reflections) with respect to non-isotropic hyperplanes. However, the coefficient sheaf of \mathbb C{\mathbb {C}}-algebras A{\mathcal {A}} is assumed to be a PID \mathbb C{\mathbb {C}}-algebra sheaf and, if (E,f){(\mathcal {E},\phi)} is a pairing with f{\phi} a non-degenerate A{\mathcal {A}}-bilinear morphism, we assume that E{\mathcal {E}} has nowhere-zero (local) isotropic sections; but, for Riemannian sheaves of A{\mathcal {A}}-modules, this is not necessarily required.     

Applications of Operator Space Theory to Nest Algebra Bimodules

Recently, Blecher and Kashyap have generalized the notion of W ^*-modules over von Neumann algebras to the setting where the operator algebras are σ closed algebras of operators on a Hilbert space. They call these modules weak* rigged modules. We characterize the weak* rigged modules over nest algebras. We prove that Y is a right weak* rigged module over a nest algebra Alg(M){\rm{Alg}(\mathcal M)} if and only if there exists a completely isometric normal representation F{\Phi } of Y and a nest algebra Alg(N){\rm{Alg}(\mathcal N)} such that Alg(N) F(Y)Alg(M) ì F(Y){\rm{Alg}(\mathcal N) \Phi (Y)\rm{Alg}(\mathcal M)\subset \Phi (Y)} while F(Y){\Phi (Y)} is implemented by a continuous nest homomorphism from M{\mathcal M} onto N{\mathcal N} . We describe some properties which are preserved by continuous CSL homomorphisms.     

Inverse Scattering at Fixed Energy in de Sitter�CReissner�CNordstr?m Black Holes

In this paper, we consider massless Dirac fields propagating in the outer region of de Sitter–Reissner–Nordstr?m black holes. We show that the metric of such black holes is uniquely determined by the partial knowledge of the corresponding scattering matrix S(λ) at a fixed energy λ ≠ 0. More precisely, we consider the partial wave scattering matrices S(λ, n) (here λ ≠ 0 is the fixed energy and n ? \mathbbN^*{n \in \mathbb{N}^{*}} denotes the angular momentum) defined as the restrictions of the full scattering matrix on a well chosen basis of spin-weighted spherical harmonics. We prove that the mass M, the square of the charge Q ² and the cosmological constant Λ of a dS-RN black hole (and thus its metric) can be uniquely determined from the knowledge of either the transmission coefficients T(λ, n), or the reflexion coefficients R(λ, n) (resp. L(λ, n)), for all n ? L{n \in {\mathcal{L}}} where L{\mathcal{L}} is a subset of \mathbbN^*{\mathbb{N}^{*}} that satisfies the Müntz condition ?_{n ? L}\frac1n = +￥{\sum_{n \in{\mathcal{L}}}\frac{1}{n} = +\infty} . Our main tool consists in complexifying the angular momentum n and in studying the analytic properties of the “unphysical” scattering matrix S(λ, z) in the complex variable z. We show, in particular, that the quantities \frac1T(l,z){\frac{1}{T(\lambda,z)}}, \fracR(l,z)T(l,z){\frac{R(\lambda,z)}{T(\lambda,z)}} and \fracL(l,z)T(l,z){\frac{L(\lambda,z)}{T(\lambda,z)}} belong to the Nevanlinna class in the region ${\{z \in \mathbb{C}, Re(z) > 0 \}}${\{z \in \mathbb{C}, Re(z) > 0 \}} for which we have analytic uniqueness theorems at our disposal. Eventually, as a by-product of our method, we obtain reconstruction formulae for the surface gravities of the event and cosmological horizons of the black hole which have an important physical meaning in the Hawking effect.     

Triangulating Smooth Submanifolds with Light Scaffolding

We propose an algorithm to sample and mesh a k-submanifold M{\mathcal{M}} of positive reach embedded in \mathbbR^d{\mathbb{R}^{d}} . The algorithm first constructs a crude sample of M{\mathcal{M}} . It then refines the sample according to a prescribed parameter e{\varepsilon} , and builds a mesh that approximates M{\mathcal{M}} . Differently from most algorithms that have been developed for meshing surfaces of \mathbbR ³{\mathbb{R} ^3} , the refinement phase does not rely on a subdivision of \mathbbR ^d{\mathbb{R} ^d} (such as a grid or a triangulation of the sample points) since the size of such scaffoldings depends exponentially on the ambient dimension d. Instead, we only compute local stars consisting of k-dimensional simplices around each sample point. By refining the sample, we can ensure that all stars become coherent leading to a k-dimensional triangulated manifold [^(M)]{\hat{\mathcal{M}}} . The algorithm uses only simple numerical operations. We show that the size of the sample is O(e^-k){O(\varepsilon ^{-k})} and that [^(M)]{\hat{\mathcal{M}}} is a good triangulation of M{\mathcal{M}} . More specifically, we show that M{\mathcal{M}} and [^(M)]{\hat{\mathcal{M}}} are isotopic, that their Hausdorff distance is O(e²){O(\varepsilon ^{2})} and that the maximum angle between their tangent bundles is O(e){O(\varepsilon )} . The asymptotic complexity of the algorithm is T(e) = O(e^-k2-k){T(\varepsilon) = O(\varepsilon ^{-k^2-k})} (for fixed M, d{\mathcal{M}, d} and k).     

On Representations of Integers in Thin Subgroups of {{\rm SL}_2({\mathbb {Z}})}

Let ${\Gamma < {\rm SL}(2, {\mathbb Z})}Let G < SL(2, \mathbb Z){\Gamma < {\rm SL}(2, {\mathbb Z})} be a free, finitely generated Fuchsian group of the second kind with no parabolics, and fix two primitive vectors v₀, w₀ ? \mathbb Z²  \  {0}{v_{0}, w_{0} \in \mathbb {Z}^{2} \, {\backslash} \, \{0\}}. We consider the set S{\mathcal {S}} of all integers occurring in áv₀g, w₀?{\langle v_{0}\gamma, w_{0}\rangle}, for g ? G{\gamma \in \Gamma} and the usual inner product on \mathbb R²{\mathbb {R}^2}. Assume that the critical exponent δ of Γ exceeds 0.99995, so that Γ is thin but not too thin. Using a variant of the circle method, new bilinear forms estimates and Gamburd’s 5/6-th spectral gap in infinite-volume, we show that S{\mathcal {S}} contains almost all of its admissible primes, that is, those not excluded by local (congruence) obstructions. Moreover, we show that the exceptional set \mathfrak E(N){\mathfrak {E}(N)} of integers |n| < N which are locally admissible (n ? S   (mod  q)   for all   q 3 1){(n \in \mathcal {S} \, \, ({\rm mod} \, q) \, \, {\rm for\,all} \,\, q \geq 1)} but fail to be globally represented, n ? S{n \notin \mathcal {S}}, has a power savings, |\mathfrak E(N)| << N^1-e₀{|\mathfrak {E}(N)| \ll N^{1-\varepsilon_{0}}} for some ${\varepsilon_{0} > 0}${\varepsilon_{0} > 0}, as N → ∞.     

The Ground State and the Long-Time Evolution in the CMC Einstein Flow

Let (g, K)(k) be a CMC (vacuum) Einstein flow over a compact three-manifold Σ with non-positive Yamabe invariant (Y(Σ)). As noted by Fischer and Moncrief, the reduced volume ${\mathcal{V}(k)=\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{3}{\rm Vol}_{g(k)}(\Sigma)}Let (g, K)(k) be a CMC (vacuum) Einstein flow over a compact three-manifold Σ with non-positive Yamabe invariant (Y(Σ)). As noted by Fischer and Moncrief, the reduced volume V(k)=(\frac-k3)³Vol_g(k)(S){\mathcal{V}(k)=\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{3}{\rm Vol}_{g(k)}(\Sigma)} is monotonically decreasing in the expanding direction and bounded below by V_inf=(\frac-16Y(S))^\frac32{\mathcal{V}_{\rm \inf}=\left(\frac{-1}{6}Y(\Sigma)\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}. Inspired by this fact we define the ground state of the manifold Σ as “the limit” of any sequence of CMC states {(g _i , K _i )} satisfying: (i) k _i  = −3, (ii) V_iˉ V_inf{\mathcal{V}_{i}\downarrow \mathcal{V}_{\rm inf}}, (iii) Q ₀((g _i , K _i )) ≤ Λ, where Q ₀ is the Bel–Robinson energy and Λ is any arbitrary positive constant. We prove that (as a geometric state) the ground state is equivalent to the Thurston geometrization of Σ. Ground states classify naturally into three types. We provide examples for each class, including a new ground state (the Double Cusp) that we analyze in detail. Finally, consider a long time and cosmologically normalized flow ([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])(s)=((\frac-k3)²g,(\frac-k3)K){(\tilde{g},\tilde{K})(\sigma)=\left(\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)^{2}g,\left(\frac{-k}{3}\right)K\right)}, where s = -ln(-k) ? [a,￥){\sigma=-\ln (-k)\in [a,\infty)}. We prove that if [(E₁)\tilde]=E₁(([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])) ￡ L{\tilde{\mathcal{E}_{1}}=\mathcal{E}_{1}((\tilde{g},\tilde{K}))\leq \Lambda} (where E₁=Q₀+Q₁{\mathcal{E}_{1}=Q_{0}+Q_{1}}, is the sum of the zero and first order Bel–Robinson energies) the flow ([(g)\tilde],[(K)\tilde])(s){(\tilde{g},\tilde{K})(\sigma)} persistently geometrizes the three-manifold Σ and the geometrization is the ground state if Vˉ V_inf{\mathcal{V}\downarrow \mathcal{V}_{\rm inf}}.     

Linear Maps Preserving Operators of Local Spectral Radius Zero

Let X be a complex Banach space and let B(X){\mathcal{B}(X)} be the space of all bounded linear operators on X. For x ? X{x \in X} and T ? B(X){T \in \mathcal{B}(X)}, let r_T(x) = limsup_{n ? ￥} || Tⁿx|| ^1/n{r_{T}(x) =\limsup_{n \rightarrow \infty} \| T^{n}x\| ^{1/n}} denote the local spectral radius of T at x. We prove that if j: B(X) ? B(X){\varphi : \mathcal{B}(X) \rightarrow \mathcal{B}(X)} is linear and surjective such that for every x ? X{x \in X} we have r _T (x) = 0 if and only if r_j(T)(x) = 0{r_{\varphi(T)}(x) = 0}, there exists then a nonzero complex number c such that j(T) = cT{\varphi(T) = cT} for all T ? B(X){T \in \mathcal{B}(X) }. We also prove that if Y is a complex Banach space and j:B(X) ? B(Y){\varphi :\mathcal{B}(X) \rightarrow \mathcal{B}(Y)} is linear and invertible for which there exists B ? B(Y, X){B \in \mathcal{B}(Y, X)} such that for y ? Y{y \in Y} we have r _T (By) = 0 if and only if r_{j( T)} (y)=0{ r_{\varphi ( T) }(y)=0}, then B is invertible and there exists a nonzero complex number c such that j(T) = cB^-1TB{\varphi(T) =cB^{-1}TB} for all T ? B(X){T \in \mathcal{B}(X)}.     

Generalised Gagliardo–Nirenberg Inequalities Using Weak Lebesgue Spaces and BMO

Using elementary arguments based on the Fourier transform we prove that for ${1 \leq q < p < \infty}$ and ${s \geq 0}$ with s > n(1/2 ? 1/p), if ${f \in L^{q,\infty} (\mathbb{R}^n) \cap \dot{H}^s (\mathbb{R}^n)}$ , then ${f \in L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ and there exists a constant c _p,q,s such that $$\| f \|_{L^{p}} \leq c_{p,q,s} \| f \|^\theta _{L^{q,\infty}} \| f \|^{1-\theta}_{\dot{H}^s},$$ where 1/p = θ/q + (1?θ)(1/2?s/n). In particular, in ${\mathbb{R}^2}$ we obtain the generalised Ladyzhenskaya inequality ${\| f \| _{L^4} \leq c \| f \|^{1/2}_{L^{2,\infty}} \| f \|^{1/2}_{\dot{H}^1}}$ .We also show that for s = n/2 and q > 1 the norm in ${\| f \|_{\dot{H}^{n/2}}}$ can be replaced by the norm in BMO. As well as giving relatively simple proofs of these inequalities, this paper provides a brief primer of some basic concepts in harmonic analysis, including weak spaces, the Fourier transform, the Lebesgue Differentiation Theorem, and Calderon–Zygmund decompositions.     

A sharp equivalence between H ∞ functional calculus and square function estimates

Let (T _t ) _{t?≥ 0} be a bounded analytic semigroup on L ^p (Ω), with 1?<?p?<?∞. Let ?A denote its infinitesimal generator. It is known that if A and A ^* both satisfy square function estimates ${\bigl\|\bigl(\int_{0}^{\infty} \vert A^{\frac{1}{2}} T_t(x)\vert^2 {\rm d}t \bigr)^{\frac{1}{2}}\bigr\|_{L^p} \lesssim \|x\|_{L^p}}$ and ${\bigl\|\bigl(\int_{0}^{\infty} \vert A^{*\frac{1}{2}} T_t^*(y) \vert^2 {\rm d}t \bigr)^{\frac{1}{2}}\bigr\|_{L^{p^\prime}} \lesssim \|y\|_{L^{p^\prime}}}$ for ${x\in L^p(\Omega)}$ and ${y\in L^{p^\prime}(\Omega)}$ , then A admits a bounded ${H^{\infty}(\Sigma_\theta)}$ functional calculus for any ${\theta>\frac{\pi}{2}}$ . We show that this actually holds true for some ${\theta<\frac{\pi}{2}}$ .
