On the Sets of Values of the Initial Coefficients in Class of Typically Real Functions

Let be the class of functions satisfying the following conditions: these functions are regular and typically real in the unit disk, they have the form , and the equality holds for some fixed and with . We find the set of values of the first two coefficients for functions from this class. Boundary functions for these sets of values are found. Some previous results of the author are supplemented. Boundary functions for the sets of values for the functionals and in the class are found. Bibliography: 5 titles.     

On the Spectrum of Degenerate Operator Equations

Here and A is a model operator acting in . Criterial conditions on the parameter for the eigenfunctions of the operator to form a complete and minimal system as well as a Riesz basis in the Hilbert space H are given.

On the mixed problem for hyperbolic partial differential-functional equations of the first order

We consider the mixed problem for the hyperbolic partial differential-functional equation of the first order where is a function defined by z _(x,y)(t, s) = z(x + t, y + s), (t, s) [–, 0] × [0, h]. Using the method of bicharacteristics and the method of successive approximations for a certain integral-functional system we prove, under suitable assumptions, a theorem of the local existence of generalized solutions of this problem.     

On the Continuity of the Generalized Nemytskii Operator on Spaces of Differentiable Functions

We obtain sufficient conditions for the continuity of the general nonlinear superposition operator (generalized Nemytskii operator) acting from the space of differentiable functions on a bounded domain to the Lebesgue space . The values of operators on a function are locally determined by the values of both the function itself and all of its partial derivatives up to order inclusive. In certain particular cases, the sufficient conditions obtained are proved to be necessary as well. The results are illustrated by several examples, and an application to the theory of Sobolev spaces is also given.     

On a Two-Point Boundary Value Problem for Second Order Singular Equations

The problem on the existence of a positive in the interval ]a, b[ solution of the boundary value problem is considered, where the functions f and satisfy the local Carathéodory conditions. The possibility for the functions f and g to have singularities in the first argument (for t = a and t = b) and in the phase variable (for u = 0) is not excluded. Sufficient and, in some cases, necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of that problem are established.     

Subdifferentials with respect to dualities

LetX andW be two sets and: ¯R^X ¯R^W a duality (i.e., a mapping such that for all and all index setsI). We introduce and study the subdifferential of a function at a pointx _o X, with respect to. We also consider the particular cases when is a (Fenchel-Moreau) conjugation, or a -duality, or a -duality, in the sense of [8].

The Local Stark Conjecture at a Real Place

A refinement of the rank 1 Abelian Stark conjecture has been formulated by B.Gross. This conjecture predicts some -adic analytic nature of a modification of the Stark unit. The conjecture makes perfect sense even when is an Archimedean place. Here we consider the conjecture when is a real place, and interpret it in terms of 2-adic properties of special values of L-functions. We prove the conjecture for CM extensions; here the original Stark conjecture is uninteresting, but the refined conjecture is nontrivial. In more generality, we show that, under mild hypotheses, if the subgroup of the Galois group generated by complex conjugations has less than full rank, then the refined conjecture implies that the Stark unit should be a square. This phenomenon has been discovered by Dummit and Hayes in a particular type of situation. We show that it should hold in much greater generality.     

Bounds for the Characteristic Functions of the System of Monomials in Random Variables and of Its Trigonometric Analogue

Using a multidimensional analogue of Vinogradov's inequality for a trigonometric integral, the upper bounds are constructed for the moduli of the characteristic functions both of the system of monomials in components of a random vector with an absolutely continuous distribution in and of the system where is uniformly distributed in [0, l]^s.     

Exponential Stability of Semigroups Related to Operator Models in Mechanics

In this paper, we consider equations of the form , where is a function with values in the Hilbert space , the operator B is symmetric, and the operator A is uniformly positive and self-adjoint in . The linear operator generating the C ₀-semigroup in the energy space is associated with this equation. We prove that this semigroup is exponentially stable if the operator B is uniformly positive and the operator A dominates B in the sense of quadratic forms.     

On the Possibility of Stabilization of Evolution Systems of Partial Differential Equations on ℝ n × [0, + ∞) Using One-Dimensional Feedback Controls

We establish conditions for the stabilizability of evolution systems of partial differential equations on by one-dimensional feedback controls. To prove these conditions, we use the Fourier-transform method. We obtain estimates for semialgebraic functions on semialgebraic sets by using the Tarski–Seidenberg theorem and its corollaries. We also give examples of stabilizable and nonstabilizable systems.     

Symmetry of Sections in Fields of Formal Power Series and a Non-Standard Real Line

Let be a field of formal power series with real coefficients, whose supports are well ordered subsets of an Abelian group of cardinality strictly less than . For , we give criteria of a section being symmetric and of a symmetric section being Dedekind. It is proved that an -saturated non-standard real line is isomorphic to some field of the form . For , some consequences are inferred regarding symmetric sections, and the cofinality of banks of the sections.     

Application of Upper Hemi-Continuous Operators on Generalized Bi-quasi-variational Inequalities in Locally Convex Topological Vector Spaces

Let and be Hausdorff topological vector spaces over the field , let be a bilinear functional, and let be a non-empty subset of . Given a set-valued map and two set-valued maps , the generalized bi-quasi-variational inequality (GBQVI) problem is to find a point and a point such that and for all and for all or to find a point a point and a point such that and for all . The generalized bi-quasi-variational inequality was introduced first by Shih and Tan [8] in 1989. In this paper we shall obtain some existence theorems of generalized bi-quasi-variational inequalities as application of upper hemi-continuous operators [4] in locally convex topological vector spaces on compact sets.     

Integration with respect to local time

Let be the local time process of a linear Brownian motion B. We integrate the Borel functions on with respect to . This allows us to write Itôrs formula for new classes of functions, and to define a local time process of B on any borelian curve. Some results are extended from deterministic to random functions.     

Epsilon-inflation with contractive interval functions

For contractive interval functions [g] we show that results from the iterative process after finitely many iterations if one uses the epsilon-inflated vector as input for [g] instead of the original output vector [x] ^k . Applying Brouwer's fixed point theorem, zeros of various mathematical problems can be verified in this way.

Differenzverfahren für Schwingungen mit trockener und zäher Reibung und für Regelungssysteme

Summary In the present article we show that the solutions of initial value problems in ordinary differential equations with discontinuous right-hand side can be approximated by a slight modification of the Euler-Cauchy method. The method is succesfully applied to and for some initial values. By a solution of a differential equation with discontinuous right-hand side we mean the concept given by A. F. Filippov.
