Equivalent characterization of centralizers on <Emphasis Type="Italic">B</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)

Let H be a Hilbert space with dim H≥2 and Z∈ß(H) be an arbitrary but fixed operator. In this paper we show that an additive map Φ:ß(H) → ß(H) satisfies Φ(AB)=Φ(A)B=AΦ(B) for any A,B∈ß(H) with AB=Z if and only if Φ(AB)=Φ(A)B=AΦ(B), ∀A, B∈ß(H), that is, Φ is a centralizer. Similar results are obtained for Hilbert space nest algebras. In addition, we show that Φ(A²)=AΦ(A)=Φ(A)A for any A∈ ß(H) with AA²=0 if and only if Φ(A)=AΦ(I)=Φ(I)A, ∀A∈ß(H), and generalize main results in Linear Algebra and its Application, 450, 243-249 (2014) to infinite dimensional case. New equivalent characterization of centralizers on ß(H) is obtained.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">LJ</Emphasis>-spaces

In this paper LJ-spaces are introduced and studied. They are a common generalization of Lindelöf spaces and J-spaces researched by E. Michael. A space X is called an LJ-space if, whenever {A, B} is a closed cover of X with A ∩ B compact, then A or B is Lindelöf. Semi-strong LJ-spaces and strong LJ-spaces are also defined and investigated. It is demonstrated that the three spaces are different and have interesting properties and behaviors.     

Modular <Emphasis Type="Italic">W</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis> Type Lie Algebras

The modular Witt algebra W(p, n) and H(p, 2n) are defined on the polynomial rings Z_p[x₁,...,x_n] and Z_p[X₁,...,x_n, y₁,...,y_n] respectively. We generalize Z_p[x₁,...,xn] and Zp[x₁,...,xn, y₁,...,y_n], so we get the generalized W-type and H-type modular Lie algebras. We find all the derivations of W(p, 1).AMS Subject Classification: Primary 17B40, 17B56.     

Extending Lipschitz maps into <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis>)-spaces

We show that if K is a compact metric space then C(K) is a 2-absolute Lipschitz retract. We then study the best Lipschitz extension constants for maps into C(K) from a given metric space M, extending recent results of Lancien and Randrianantoanina. They showed that a finite-dimensional normed space which is polyhedral has the isometric extension property for C(K)-spaces; here we show that the same result holds for spaces with Gateaux smooth norm or of dimension two; a three-dimensional counterexample is also given. We also show that X is polyhedral if and only if every subset E of X has the universal isometric extension property for C(K)-spaces. We also answer a question of Naor on the extension of Hölder continuous maps.     

Largest <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-eigenvalue of uniform <Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis>-hypertrees

The k-uniform s-hypertree G = (V,E) is an s-hypergraph, where 1 ≤ s ≤ k - 1; and there exists a host tree T with vertex set V such that each edge of G induces a connected subtree of T. In this paper, some properties of uniform s-hypertrees are establised, as well as the upper and lower bounds on the largest H-eigenvalue of the adjacency tensor of k-uniform s-hypertrees in terms of the maximal degree Δ. Moreover, we also show that the gap between the maximum and the minimum values of the largest H-eigenvalue of k-uniform s-hypertrees is just Θ(Δ ^s/k ).     

A note on transitively <Emphasis Type="Italic">D</Emphasis>-spaces

In this note, we show that if for any transitive neighborhood assignment φ for X there is a point-countable refinement ? such that for any non-closed subset A of X there is some V ∈ ? such that |V ∩ A| ? ω, then X is transitively D. As a corollary, if X is a sequential space and has a point-countable wcs*-network then X is transitively D, and hence if X is a Hausdorff k-space and has a point-countable k-network, then X is transitively D. We prove that if X is a countably compact sequential space and has a pointcountable wcs*-network, then X is compact. We point out that every discretely Lindelöf space is transitively D. Let (X, τ) be a space and let (X, ?) be a butterfly space over (X, τ). If (X, τ) is Fréchet and has a point-countable wcs*-network (or is a hereditarily meta-Lindelöf space), then (X, ?) is a transitively D-space.     

Self-maps of <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript> homotopic to a smooth map with a single <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-periodic point

We show for which (d,n) ∈ Z×N there exists a smooth self-map f:S² → S² so that deg(f)=d and Fix(fⁿ) is a point.     

Rate of convergence to stationarity of the system <Emphasis Type="Italic">M</Emphasis>/<Emphasis Type="Italic">M</Emphasis>/<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>/<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>+<Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis>

We consider the M/M/N/N+R service system, characterized by N servers, R waiting positions, Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. We discuss representations and bounds for the rate of convergence to stationarity of the number of customers in the system, and study its behaviour as a function of R, N and the arrival rate λ, allowing λ to be a function of N.     

Nonlinear Preserver Problems on B（H）

Let H be a complex Hilbert space of dimension greater than 2, and B(H) denote the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on H. For A, B ∈ B(H), define the binary relation A ≤* B by A*A = A*B and AA* = AB*. Then (B(H), “≤*”) is a partially ordered set and the relation “≤*” is called the star order on B(H). Denote by Bs(H) the set of all self-adjoint operators in B(H). In this paper, we first characterize nonlinear continuous bijective maps on B _s (H) which preserve the star order in both directions. We characterize also additive maps (or linear maps) on B(H) (or nest algebras) which are multiplicative at some invertible operator.     

Non-homogeneous <Emphasis Type="Italic">Tb</Emphasis> Theorem for Bi-parameter <Emphasis Type="Italic">g</Emphasis>-function

The main result of this paper is a bi-parameter Tb theorem for Littlewood–Paley g-function, where b is a tensor product of two pseudo-accretive function. Instead of the doubling measure, we work with a product measure μ = μ_n × μ_m, where the measures μ_n and μ_m are only assumed to be upper doubling. The main techniques of the proof include a bi-parameter b-adapted Haar function decomposition and an averaging identity over good double Whitney regions. Moreover, the non-homogeneous analysis and probabilistic methods are used again.     

Best approximation by ridge functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-spaces

We study the approximation of the classes of functions by the manifold R _n formed by all possible linear combinations of n ridge functions of the form r(a · x)): It is proved that, for any 1 ≤ q ≤ p ≤ ∞, the deviation of the Sobolev class W ^r _p from the set R _n of ridge functions in the space L _q (B ^d ) satisfies the sharp order n ^-r/(d-1).     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>*</Superscript>-Subalgebras Generated by a Single Operator in <Emphasis Type="Italic">B</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)

In this paper, we characterize a C ^*-subalgebra C ^*(x) of B(H), generated by a single operator x. We show that if x is polar-decomposed by aq, where a is the partial isometry part and q is the positive operator part of x, then C ^*(x) is *-isomorphic to the groupoid crossed product algebra A_q×_a\mathbbG_a\mathcal{A}_{q}\times_{\alpha }\mathbb{G}_{a} , where A_q=C^*(q)\mathcal{A}_{q}=C^{*}(q) and \mathbbG_a\mathbb{G}_{a} is the graph groupoid induced by a partial isometry part a of x.     

Interpolation of nonlinear operators in weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-spaces

We show that Peetre’s classical interpolation theorem in weighted L _p -spaces is carried over to some classes of nonlinear operators containing in particular the Lipschitz operators and operators close to them in the properties satisfying less restrictive conditions than Lipschitz in each of the spaces of a Banach pair.     

A generalization of Lie <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>-pseudobialgebras

We investigate Hom–Lie H-pseudobialgebras. We present some examples and a theorem that allows constructing these new algebraic structures. We consider coboundary Hom–Lie H-pseudobialgebras and the corresponding classical Hom–Yang–Baxter equations.     

A Singular Parabolic Boundary Value Problem in Weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>-spaces

We consider the operator ${\cal A}$ formally defined by ${\cal A}u(x)=\alpha(x)\Delta u(x)$ for any $x$ in a sufficiently smooth bounded open set $\Om\subset\R^N$ ($N\ge 1$), where $\alpha\in C(\ov\Omega)$ is a continuous nonnegative function vanishing only on $\partial\Omega$, and such that $1/\alpha$ is integrable in $\Omega$. We prove that the realization $A_p$ of ${\cal A}$, equipped with suitable nonlinear boundary conditions is an m-dissipative operator in suitably weighted $L^p(\Omega)$-spaces in the case where either $(p,N)\in (1,+\infty)\times\{1\}$ or $(p,N)=\{2\}\times\N$. Moreover, we prove that $A_p$ is a densely defined closed operator. We consider nonlinear boundary conditions of the following type: in the one dimensional case we take $\Omega=(0,1)$ and we assume that $u(j)=(-1)^j\beta_j(u(j))$ ($j=0,1$), $\beta_0$ and $\beta_1$ being nondecreasing continuous functions in $\R$ such that $\beta_0(0)=\beta_1(0)=0$; in the $N$-dimensional setting we assume that $(D_{\nu}u)_{|\partial\Omega}=-\beta(u_{|\partial\Omega})$, $\beta$ being a nondecreasing Lipschitz continuous function in $\R$ such that $\beta(0)=0$. Here $\nu$ denotes the unit outward normal to $\partial\Om$.     

Eigenvalues of the Manifold Sp（n）/U（n）

In this paper, we give the eigenvalues of the manifold Sp(n)/U(n). We prove that an eigenvalue λ _s (f ₂, f ₂, …, f _n ) of the Lie group Sp(n), corresponding to the representation with label (f ₁, f ₂, ..., f _n ), is an eigenvalue of the manifold Sp(n)/U(n), if and only if f ₁, f ₂, …, f _n are all even.     

Cyclotomic Hecke Algebras of <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">r</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>)

In this note, we find a monomial basis of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra \({\mathcal{H}_{r,p,n}}\) of G(r,p,n) and show that the Ariki-Koike algebra \({\mathcal{H}_{r,n}}\) is a free module over \({\mathcal{H}_{r,p,n}}\), using the Gröbner-Shirshov basis theory. For each irreducible representation of \({\mathcal{H}_{r,p,n}}\), we give a polynomial basis consisting of linear combinations of the monomials corresponding to cozy tableaux of a given shape.     

A study of (<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis> + 1), <Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis>; 2, <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>)-minihypers

In this paper, we study the weighted (x(q + 1), x; 2, q)-minihypers. These are weighted sets of x(q + 1) points in PG(2, q) intersecting every line in at least x points. We investigate the decomposability of these minihypers, and define a switching construction which associates to an (x(q + 1), x; 2, q)-minihyper, with x ≤ q ² − q, not decomposable in the sum of another minihyper and a line, a (j(q + 1), j; 2, q)-minihyper, where j = q ² − q − x, again not decomposable into the sum of another minihyper and a line. We also characterize particular (x(q + 1), x; 2, q)-minihypers, and give new examples. Additionally, we show that (x(q + 1), x; 2, q)-minihypers can be described as rational sums of lines. In this way, this work continues the research on (x(q + 1), x; 2, q)-minihypers by Hill and Ward (Des Codes Cryptogr 44:169–196, 2007), giving further results on these minihypers.     

(<Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">t</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>)-bi-Koszul algebras

The paper focuses on the 1-generated positively graded algebras with non-pure resolutions and mainly discusses a new kind of algebras called(s,t,d)-bi-Koszul algebras as the generalization of bi-Koszul algebras. An(s,t,d)-bi-Koszul algebra can be obtained from two periodic algebras with pure resolutions. The generation of the Koszul dual of an(s,t,d)-bi-Koszul algebra is discussed. Based on it,the notion of strongly(s,t,d)-bi-Koszul algebras is raised and their homological properties are further discussed.
