On the rearrangement estimates and the boundedness of the generalized fractional integrals associated with the Laplace-Bessel differential operator

We introduce the generalized fractional integrals (generalized B-fractional integrals) generated by the Δ _B Laplace-Bessel differential operator and give some results for them. We obtain O’Neil type inequalities for the B-convolutions and give pointwise rearrangement estimates of the generalized B-fractional integrals. Then we get the L _p,γ -boundedness of the generalized B-convolution operator, the generalized B-Riesz potential and the generalized fractional B-maximal function. Finally, we prove a sharp pointwise estimate of the nonincreasing rearrangement of the generalized fractional B-maximal function. V. S.

Implicit multifunction theorems for the sensitivity analysis of variational conditions

We study implicit multifunctions (set-valued mappings) obtained from inclusions of the form 0∈M(p,x), whereM is a multifunction. Our basic implicit multifunction theorem provides an approximation for a generalized derivative of the implicit multifunction in terms of the derivative of the multifunctionM. Our primary focus is on three special cases of inclusions 0∈M(p,x) which represent different kinds of generalized variational inequalities, called “variational conditions”. Appropriate versions of our basic implicit multifunction theorem yield approximations for generalized derivatives of the solutions to each kind of variational condition. We characterize a well-known generalized Lipschitz property in terms of generalized derivatives, and use our implicit multifunction theorems to state sufficient conditions (and necessary in one case) for solutions of variational conditions to possess this Lipschitz, property. We apply our results to a general parameterized nonlinear programming problem, and derive a new second-order condition which guarantees that the stationary points associated with the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions exhibit generalized Lipschitz continuity with respect to the parameter.     

Bounds on the k-th generalized base of a primitive sign pattern matrix

You et al. [L. You, J. Shao, and H. Shan, Bounds on the bases of irreducible generalized sign pattern matrices, Lin. Alg. Appl. 427 (2007), pp. 285–300] extended the concept of the base of a powerful sign pattern matrix to the nonpowerful, irreducible sign pattern matrices. The key to their generalization was to view the relationship A ^l =A ^l?+?p as an equality of generalized sign patterns rather than of sign patterns. You, Shao and Shan showed that for primitive generalized sign patterns, the base is the smallest positive integer k such that all entries of A ^k are ambiguous. In this paper we study the k-th generalized base for nonpowerful primitive sign pattern matrices. For a primitive, nonpowerful sign pattern A, this is the smallest positive integer h such that A^k has h rows consisting entirely of ambiguous entries. Extending the work of You, Shao and Shan, we obtain sharp upper bounds on the k-th generalized base, together with a complete characterization of the equality cases for those bounds. We also show that there exist gaps in the k-th generalized base set of the classes of such matrices.     

The generalized centro‐symmetric and least squares generalized centro‐symmetric solutions of the matrix equation AYB + CYTD = E

An n×n real matrix P is said to be a symmetric orthogonal matrix if P = P^?1 = P^T. An n × n real matrix Y is called a generalized centro‐symmetric with respect to P, if Y = PYP. It is obvious that every matrix is also a generalized centro‐symmetric matrix with respect to I. In this work by extending the conjugate gradient approach, two iterative methods are proposed for solving the linear matrix equation and the minimum Frobenius norm residual problem over the generalized centro‐symmetric Y, respectively. By the first (second) algorithm for any initial generalized centro‐symmetric matrix, a generalized centro‐symmetric solution (least squares generalized centro‐symmetric solution) can be obtained within a finite number of iterations in the absence of round‐off errors, and the least Frobenius norm generalized centro‐symmetric solution (the minimal Frobenius norm least squares generalized centro‐symmetric solution) can be derived by choosing a special kind of initial generalized centro‐symmetric matrices. We also obtain the optimal approximation generalized centro‐symmetric solution to a given generalized centro‐symmetric matrix Y₀ in the solution set of the matrix equation (minimum Frobenius norm residual problem). Finally, some numerical examples are presented to support the theoretical results of this paper. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Isomorphisms of algebras of generalized functions

We show that for smooth manifolds X and Y, any isomorphism between the algebras of generalized functions (in the sense of Colombeau) on X, resp. Y is given by composition with a unique generalized function from Y to X. We also characterize the multiplicative linear functionals from the Colombeau algebra on X to the ring of generalized numbers. Up to multiplication with an idempotent generalized number, they are given by an evaluation map at a compactly supported generalized point on X.     

Generalized F-Modules and the Associated Primes of Local Cohomology Modules

We introduce a class of modules called generalized f-modules, which contains strictly all f-modules and generalized Cohen–Macaulay modules. The properties of multiplicity, local cohomology modules, localization, completion… of these modules are presented. A result concerning the finiteness of associated primes of local cohomology modules with respect to generalized f-modules is given. Some connections to the coordinate rings of algebraic varieties and Stanley-Reisner rings are considered.     

On choices of formulations of computing the generalized singular value decomposition of a large matrix pair

For the computation of the generalized singular value decomposition (GSVD) of a large matrix pair (A,B) of full column rank, the GSVD is commonly formulated as two mathematically equivalent generalized eigenvalue problems, so that a generalized eigensolver can be applied to one of them and the desired GSVD components are then recovered from the computed generalized eigenpairs. Our concern in this paper is, in finite precision arithmetic, which generalized eigenvalue formulation is numerically preferable to compute the desired GSVD components more accurately. We make a detailed perturbation analysis on the two formulations and show how to make a suitable choice between them. Numerical experiments illustrate the results obtained.

     

Generalized variational formulations of contact problems of the dynamic theory of elasticity and thermoelasticity

We state generalized variational formulations of dynamic contact problems in the presence of zones of nonideal contact. For a problem of the theory of elasticity we write a generalized functional of Hamiltonian type. The variational formulations of contact problems of coupled dynamic thermoelasticity are stated using a generalized functional of Gurtin type.Translated fromMatematicheskie Metody i Fiziko-Mekhanicheskie Polya, Issue 36, 1992, pp. 71–76.     

On the Jacobi series

Summary The Jacobi series of a functionf is an expansion in a series of ascending powers of a prescribed polynomialP of degreen in which the coefficients are polynomials of lesser degree. These coefficients are usually expressed as contour integrals or are determined by their interpolatory properties. We show how they may be expressed as generalized derivatives off with respect toP. In so doing we also show how the Jacobi series may be expressed (in yet another way) as a generalized Taylor series. In addition, we obtain a number of interesting relations among the generalized derivatives.Dedicated to Professor Otto Haupt with best wishes on his 100th birthday.     

On the triple points of singular maps

The number of triple points (mod 2) of a self-transverse immersion of a closed 2n-manifold M into 3n-space are known to equal one of the Stiefel-Whitney numbers of M. This result is generalized to the case of generic (i.e. stable) maps with singularities. Besides triple points and Stiefel-Whitney numbers, a certain linking number of the manifold of singular values with the rest of the image is involved in the generalized equation which corrects an erroneous formula in [9].? If n is even and the closed manifold is oriented then the equations mentioned above make sense over the integers. Together, the integer- and mod 2 generalized equations imply that a certain Stiefel-Whitney number of closed oriented 4k-manifolds vanishes. This Stiefel-Whitney number is in fact the first in a family which vanish on such manifolds. Received: October 12, 2001     

Recursive Formulas for the Generalized LM-Inverse of a Matrix

In this paper, we present recursive formulas for the sequential determination of the generalized LM-inverse of a general matrix. The formulas are developed for a matrix augmented by a column. These formulas are particularized to obtain also recursive relations for the generalized L-inverse of a general matrix augmented by a column.     

On the generalized Busemann-Petty problem

The generalized Busemann-Petty problem asks whether the origin-symmetric convex bodies in ℝ ⁿ with a larger volume of all i-dimensional sections necessarily have a larger volume. As proved by Bourgain and Zhang, the answer to this question is negative if i > 3. The problem is still open for i = 2, 3. In this article we prove two specific affirmative answers to the generalized Busemann-Petty problem if the body with a smaller i-dimensional volume belongs to given classes. Our results generalize Zhang’s specific affirmative answer to the generalized Busemann-Petty problem.

Automorphism groups of some algebras

The automorphism groups of algebras are found in many papers. Using auto-invariance, we find the automorphism groups of the Laurent extension of the polynomial ring and the quantum n-plane (respectively, twisting polynomial ring) in this work. As an application of the results of this work, we can find the automorphism group of a twisting algebra. We define a generalized Weyl algebra and show that the generalized Weyl algebra is simple. We also find the automorphism group of a generalized Weyl algebra. We show that the generalized Weyl algebra A _m,m+n is the universal enveloping algebra of the generalized Witt algebra W(m,m + n).

Generalized inverses and the maximal radius of regularity of a Fredholm operator

Operators possessing analytic generalized inverses satisfying the resolvent identity are studied. Several characterizations and necessary conditions are obtained. The maximal radius of regularity for a Fredholm operatorT is computed in terms of the spectral radius of a generalized inverse ofT. This provides a partial answer to a conjecture of J. Zemánek.     

On the Equivalence and Generalized of Weyl Theorem Weyl Theorem

We know that an operator T acting on a Banach space satisfying generalized Weyl＇s theorem also satisfies Weyl＇s theorem. Conversely we show that if all isolated eigenvalues of T are poles of its resolvent and if T satisfies Weyl＇s theorem, then it also satisfies generalized Weyl＇s theorem. We give also a sinlilar result for the equivalence of a-Weyl＇s theorem and generalized a-Weyl＇s theorem. Using these results, we study the case of polaroid operators, and in particular paranormal operators.     

On the number of eigenvalues of a matrix operator

We consider a matrix operator H in the Fock space. We prove the finiteness of the number of negative eigenvalues of H if the corresponding generalized Friedrichs model has the zero eigenvalue (0 = min σ _ess(H)). We also prove that H has infinitely many negative eigenvalues accumulating near zero (the Efimov effect) if the generalized Friedrichs model has zero energy resonance. We obtain asymptotics for the number of negative eigenvalues of H below z as z → −0.

On collineations and dualities of finite generalized polygons

In this paper we generalize a result of Benson to all finite generalized polygons. In particular, given a collineation θ of a finite generalized polygon S, we obtain a relation between the parameters of S and, for various natural numbers i, the number of points x which are mapped to a point at distance i from x by θ. As a special case we consider generalized 2n-gons of order (1, t) and determine, in the generic case, the exact number of absolute points of a given duality of the underlying generalized n-gon of order t.
