WEIGHTED A PRIORI ESTIMATES FOR SOLUTION OF (-△)~mu = f WITH HOMOGENEOUS DIRICHLET CONDITIONS

Let u be a weak solution of (-△)mu = f with Dirichlet boundary conditions in a smooth bounded domain Ω  Rn. Then, the main goal of this paper is to prove the following a priori estimate:‖u‖ Wω2 m,p(Ω) ≤ C ‖f‖ Lωp (Ω),where ω is a weight in the Muckenhoupt class Ap.     

Complete classification of the positive solutions of −Δ<Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis> + <Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Superscript>

We study the equation −Δu + u ^q = 0, q > 1, in a bounded C ² domain Ω ⊂ ℝ ^N . A positive solution of the equation is moderate if it is dominated by a harmonic function and σ-moderate if it is the limit of an increasing sequence of moderate solutions. It is known that in the subcritical case, 1 < q <, q _c = (N + 1)/(N − 1), every positive solution is σ-moderate [32]. More recently, Dynkin proved, by probabilistic methods, that this remains valid in the supercritical case for q ≤ 2, [15]. The question remained open for q > 2. In this paper, we prove that for all q ≥ q _c , every positive solution is σ-moderate. We use purely analytic techniques, which apply to the full supercritical range. The main tools come from linear and non-linear potential theory. Combined with previous results, our result establishes a one-to-one correspondence between positive solutions and their boundary traces in the sense of [36].     

On the equation Δ<Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis> + <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis>)<Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis> = 0

Sufficient conditions for the blow-up of nontrivial generalized solutions of the interior Dirichlet problem with homogeneous boundary condition for the homogeneous elliptic-type equation Δu + q(x)u = 0, where either q(x) ≠ const or q(x) = const= λ > 0, are obtained. A priori upper bounds (Theorem 4 and Remark 6) for the exact constants in the well-known Sobolev and Steklov inequalities are established.     

Solutions of Δ<Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis>=4<Emphasis Type="Italic">u</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">2</Emphasis></Superscript> with Neumann’s conditions using the Brownian snake

We consider a Brownian snake (W_s,s0) with underlying process a reflected Brownian motion in a bounded domain D. We construct a continuous additive functional (L_s,s0) of the Brownian snake which counts the time spent by the end points _s of the Brownian snake paths on D. The random measure Z=_sdLs is supported by D. Then we represent the solution v of u=4u² in D with weak Neumann boundary condition 0 by using exponential moment of (Z,) under the excursion measure of the Brownian snake. We then derive an integral equation for v. For small it is then possible to describe negative solution of u=4u² in D with weak Neumann boundary condition . In contrast to the exit measure of the Brownian snake out of D, the measure Z is more regular. In particular we show it is absolutely continuous with respect to the surface measure on D for dimension 2 and 3.Mathematics Subject Classification (2000):60J55, 60J80, 60H30, 60G57, 35C15, 35J65     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>∞</Superscript> Estimates of solution for <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-Laplacian parabolic equation with a nonlocal term

In this paper, we consider the global existence, uniqueness and L ^∞ estimates of weak solutions to quasilinear parabolic equation of m-Laplacian type u _t − div(|∇u| ^m−2∇u) = u|u| ^β−1 ∫_Ω |u| ^α dx in Ω × (0,∞) with zero Dirichlet boundary condition in tdΩ. Further, we obtain the L ^∞ estimate of the solution u(t) and ∇u(t) for t > 0 with the initial data u ₀ ∈ L ^q (Ω) (q > 1), and the case α + β < m − 1.     

Difference sets with <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis> = 5<Emphasis Type="Italic"> p</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">r</Emphasis></Superscript>

Let D be a (v, k, λ)-difference set in an abelian group G, and (v, 31) = 1. If n = 5p ^r with p a prime not dividing v and r a positive integer, then p is a multiplier of D. In the case 31|v, we get restrictions on the parameters of such difference sets D for which p may not be a multiplier.      

The smooth structure set of <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> × <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Superscript>

We calculate \({\mathcal{S}^{{\it Diff}}(S^p \times S^q)}\), the smooth structure set of S ^p × S ^q , for p, q ≥ 2 and p + q ≥ 5. As a consequence we show that in general \({\mathcal{S}^{Diff}(S^{4j-1}\times S^{4k})}\) cannot admit a group structure such that the smooth surgery exact sequence is a long exact sequence of groups. We also show that the image of the forgetful map \({\mathcal{S}^{Diff}(S^{4j}\times S^{4k}) \rightarrow \mathcal{S}^{Top}(S^{4j}\times S^{4k})}\) is not in general a subgroup of the topological structure set.     

Period of the adelic Ikeda lift for <Emphasis Type="Italic">U</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>)

We give a period formula for the adelic Ikeda lift of an elliptic modular form f for U(m, m) in terms of special values of the adjoint L-functions of f. This is an adelic version of Ikeda’s conjecture on the period of the classical Ikeda lift for U(m, m).     

The growth of solutions of <Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>″ + e<Superscript>-z</Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>′+ Q(z)<Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis> = 0 where the order (Q) = 1

This paper investigates the growth of solutions of the equation f″ + e^-z f′ + Q(z)f = 0 where the order (Q) = 1. When Q(z) = h(z)e^bz, h(z) is nonzero polynomial, b ≠ - 1 is a complex constant, every solution of the above equation has infinite order and the hyper-order 1. We improve the results of M. Frei, M. Ozawa, G. Gundersen and J. K. Langley.

In this paper theI andII regularn-simplices are introduced. We prove that the sufficient and necessary conditions for existence of anI regularn-simplex in ℝ ⁿ are that ifn is even thenn = 4m(m + 1), and ifn is odd thenn = 4m + 1 with thatn + 1 can be expressed as a sum of two integral squares orn = 4m - 1, and that the sufficient and necessary condition for existence of aII regularn-simplex in ℝ ⁿ isn = 2m ² - 1 orn = 4m(m + 1)(m ∈ ℕ). The connection between regularn-simplex in ℝ ⁿ and combinational design is given.

This paper is concerned with the bound of the cost of approximate controllability and null controllability of heat equations, i.e., the minimal Lp norm and L∞ norm of a control needed to control the system approximately or a control needed to steer the state of the system to zero. The methods we use combine observability inequalities, energy estimates for heat equations and the dual theory.

For a commutative ring A with identity, and for infinite cardinals α as well as the symbol ∞, which indicates the situation in which there are no cardinal restrictions, one defines A to be α-regular if for each subset D of A, with |D| < α and de = 0, for any two distinct d, e ∈ D, there is an s ∈ A such that d ² s = d, for each d ∈ D, and if xd = 0, for each d ∈ D, then xs = 0     

Cycles in <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>-orbits in <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">ℂ</Emphasis></Superscript>-flag manifolds

There is a natural duality between orbits of a real form G of a complex semisimple group G on a homogeneous rational manifold Z=G /P and those of the complexification K of any of its maximal compact subgroups K: (,) is a dual pair if is a K-orbit. The cycle space C() is defined to be the connected component containing the identity of the interior of {g:g() is non-empty and compact}. Using methods which were recently developed for the case of open G-orbits, geometric properties of cycles are proved, and it is shown that C() is contained in a domain defined by incidence geometry. In the non-Hermitian case this is a key ingredient for proving that C() is a certain explicitly computable universal domain.Research of the first author partially supported by Schwerpunkt Global methods in complex geometry and SFB-237 of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.The second author was supported by a stipend of the Deutsche Akademische Austauschdienst.     

Free involutions on <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> × <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

Topological free involutions on S ¹ × S ⁿ are classified up to conjugation. We prove that this is the same as classifying quotient manifolds up to homeomorphism. There are exactly four possible homotopy types of such quotients, and surgery theory is used to classify all manifolds within each homotopy type.

We show, conditional on a uniform version of the prime k-tuples conjecture, that there are x/(log x)^1+o(1) numbers not exceeding x common to the ranges of φ and σ. Here φ is Euler’s totient function and σ is the sum-of-divisors function.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">μ</Emphasis>) for vector-valued measure <Emphasis Type="Italic">μ</Emphasis>

Let μ be a measure from a σ-algebra of subsets of a set T into a sequentially complete Hausdorff topological vector space X. Assume that μ is convexly bounded, i.e., the convex hull of its range is bounded in X, and denote by L ¹(μ) the space of scalar valued functions on T which are integrable with respect to the vector measure μ. We study the inheritance of some properties from X to L ¹(μ). We show that the bounded multiplier property passes from X to L ¹(μ). Answering a 1972 problem of Erik Thomas, we show that for a rather large class of F-spaces X the non-containment of c ₀ passes from X to L ¹(μ).

We use the method of local representation and original method of Brauer to study the block with K(B)−L(B)=1, and get some properties on the defect group and the structure of this kind of blocks. Then, we show that K(B) conjecture holds for this kind of blocks.
