Submanifolds of complex space forms admitting an almost contact metric compound structure

Summary Real hypersurfaces of an almost Hermitian manifold naturally admit an almost contact metric structure and the (f, g, u, v, w, , , )-structure is defined on submanifolds of codimension 3 of an almost Hermitian manifold. We study the so-called semi-invariant submanifolds of a complex space form with almost contact metric compound structure which is a general notion of (f, g, u, v, w, , , )-structure.Dedicated to professor Eulyong Pak on his 60th birthdayThis research was partially supported by Korean Science and Engineering Foundation Grant.     

Large-Deviation Local Theorem for Additive Functionals of a Markov Gaussian Field. I

We prove a local limit theorem (LLT) on Cramer-type large deviations for sums S _V = _t V ( _t ), where _t , t Z , 1, is a Markov Gaussian random field, V Z , and is a bounded Borel function. We get an estimate from below for the variance of S _V and construct two classes of functions , for which the LLT of large deviations holds.     

Decktransformationen transnormaler Mannigfaltigkeiten

For every transnormal m-manifold V (see [3] or [7]) in ⁿ :VW, mapping pV into its normal plane (p) is a covering map onto a submanifold W of the open Grassmannian H_n,n–m of all (n–m)-dimensional planes in ⁿ. The transnormal frame T:=^–1((p)) admits a transitive operation by a group J of isometries. The group action of the covering transformations of (V,,W) on T commutes with the action of J. The elements of J, which are restrictions of covering transformations to T, are exactly the elements of the centre of J. This property is applied to show the existence of nontrivial covering transformations of (V,,W) for n–m3.

Plane Partitions and Characters of the Symmetric Group

In this paper we show that the existence of plane partitions, which are minimal in a sense to be defined, yields minimal irreducible summands in the Kronecker product of two irreducible characters of the symmetric group S(n). The minimality of the summands refers to the dominance order of partitions of n. The multiplicity of a minimal summand equals the number of pairs of Littlewood-Richardson multitableaux of shape (, ), conjugate content and type . We also give lower and upper bounds for these numbers.     

Aperture-Angle Optimization Problems in Three Dimensions

Let [a,b] be a line segment with end points a, b and a point at which a viewer is located, all in R ³. The aperture angle of [a,b] from point , denoted by (), is the interior angle at of the triangle (a,b,). Given a convex polyhedron P not intersecting a given segment [a,b] we consider the problem of computing _max() and _min(), the maximum and minimum values of () as varies over all points in P. We obtain two characterizations of _max(). Along the way we solve several interesting special cases of the above problems and establish linear upper and lower bounds on their complexity under several models of computation.     

Fourier series of additive vector measures and their term-by-term differentiation

On a measurable space (T, , ) we choose an additive measure: Z (Z is a Banach space) with the following property: for alle , we have ; this measure defines an indefinite integral over the measure onL ² (T, ,). We prove that if { _n (t)} _n ^=1/ is an orthonormal basis inL ² and _n (e)=e _n (t) d, then any additive measure: Z whose Radon-Nikodým derivatived/d belongs toL ² is uniquely expandable in a series(e)= _n ^=1/ _n n(e) that converges to(e) uniformly with respect toe can be differentiated term-by-term, and satisfies _n ^=1/ _n ^/2 <. In the caseL ²[0,2],Z=, the Fourier series of a 2-periodic absolutely continuous functionF(t) such thatF'(t) L ²[0, 2] is superuniformly convergent toF(t).Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 64, No. 2, pp. 180–184, August, 1998.     

Compact Toeplitz operators via the Berezin transform on bounded symmetric domains

Let be an irreducible bounded symmetric domain of genusp, h(x, y) its Jordan triple determinant, andA ² () the standard weighted Bergman space of holomorphic functions on square-integrable with respect to the measureh(z, z) ^–p dz. Extending the recent result of Axler and Zheng for =D, =p=2 (the unweighted Bergman space on the unit disc), we show that ifS is a finite sum of finite products of Toeplitz operators onA ² () and is sufficiently large, thenS is compact if and only if the Berezin transform ofS tends to zero asz approaches . An analogous assertion for the Fock space is also obtained.The author's research was supported by GA AV R grant A1019701 and GA R grant 201/96/0411.     

A global pinching theorem for compact surfaces inS 3 with constant mean curvature

LetM be a compact minimal surface inS ³. Y. J. Hsu^[5] proved that if S₂22, thenM is either the equatorial sphere or the Clifford torus, whereS is the square of the length of the second fundamental form ofM, ·₂ denotes theL ²-norm onM. In this paper, we generalize Hsu's result to any compact surfaces inS ³ with constant mean curvature.Supported by NSFH.     

Central Limit Theorem for a Class of Nonhomogeneous Random Walks

A spatially nonhomogeneous random walk _t on the grid =^m X ⁿ is considered. Let _t ⁰ be a random walk homogeneous in time and space, and let _t be obtained from it by changing transition probabilities on the set A= X ⁿ, || < , so that the walk remains homogeneous only with respect to the subgroup ⁿ of the group . It is shown that if >m 2 or the drift is distinct from zero, then the central limit theorem holds for _t.     

Generalization of some classical inequalities in the theory of orthogonal series

Let {X_i} _– be a sequence of random variables, E(X_i) 0. If 1, estimates for the -th moments can be derived from known estimates of the -th moment. Here we generalized the Men'shov-Rademacher inequality for =2 for orthonormal X_i, to the case 1 and dependent random variables. The Men'shov-Payley inequality >2 for orthonormal X_i) is generalized for >2 to general random variables. A theorem is also proved that contains both the Erdös -Stechkin theorem and Serfling's theorem withv > 2 for dependent random variables.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 17, No. 2, pp. 219–230, February, 1975.This article was written while the author was working in the V.

Weak Sequential Completeness of β-duals of Double Sequence Spaces

We consider dual pairs E,E ⁽⁾ of double sequence spaces E and E ⁽⁾, where E ⁽⁾ is the -dual space of E with respect to the -convergence of double sequences for = p (Pringsheim convergence), bp (bounded p-convergence) and r (regular convergence). Motivated by Boos, Fleming and Leiger [3], we introduce two oscillating properties (signed P_OSCP(k), k {1,2}) for a double sequence space E such that the signed P_OSCP(1) guarantees the (E ^(p), E)-sequential completeness of E ^(p), whereas the signed P_OSCP(2) implies the equalities E ^(r) = E ^(bp) = E ^(p) and the (E ⁽⁾, E)-sequentialcompleteness of E ⁽⁾ for = bp and r.

Limits of balayage measures

LetA be a subset of a balayage space (X,W) and a measure onX. It is shown that for every sequence _n of measures such that lim_nn and lim_{n n} ^A = the limit measure is of the formf+[(1-f)]^A for some (unique) Borel function 0f1_Cb(A). Furthermore, conditions are given such that any such functionf occurs.     

Directed packings with block size 5 and even ν

Let andk be positive integers. A transitively orderedk-tuple (a ₁,a ₂,...,a _k) is defined to be the set {(a _i, a_j) 1i<jk} consisting ofk(k–1)/2 ordered pairs. A directed packing with parameters ,k and index =1, denoted byDP(k, 1; ), is a pair (X, A) whereX is a -set (of points) andA is a collection of transitively orderedk-tuples ofX (called blocks) such that every ordered pair of distinct points ofX occurs in at most one block ofA. The greatest number of blocks required in aDP(k, 1; ) is called packing number and denoted byDD(k, 1; ). It is shown in this paper that for all even integers , where [x] is the floor ofx.     

Asymptotic limit law for the close approach of two trajectories in expanding maps of the circle

Summary Given two pointsx, yS ¹ randomly chosen independently by a mixing absolutely continuous invariant measure of a piecewise expanding and smooth mapf of the circle, we consider for each >0 the point process obtained by recording the timesn>0 such that |f ⁿ (x)–f ⁿ (y)|. With the further assumption that the density of is bounded away from zero, we show that when tends to zero the above point process scaled by –1 converges in law to a marked Poisson point process with constant parameter measure. This parameter measure is given explicity by an average on the rate of expansion off.Partially supported by FAPESP grant number 90/3918-5     

A phase transition for the coupled branching process

Summary We consider a particular Markov process _t ^u on ^S ,S= ⁿ . The random variable _t ^u (x) is interpreted as the number of particles atx at timet. The initial distribution of this process is a translation invariant measure withf(x)d<. The evolution is as follows: At rateb(x) a particle is born atx but moves instantaneously toy chosen with probabilityq(x, y). All particles at a site die at ratepd withp[0, 1],d, ⁺ and individual particles die independently from each other at rate (1–p)d. Every particle moves independently of everything else according to a continuous time random walk.We are mainly interested in the caseb=d andn3. The process exhibits a phase transition with respect to the parameterp: Forp<p ^* all weak limit points of ( _t ^µ ) ast still have particle density (x)d. Forp>p ^*, _t ^µ ) converges ast to the measure concentrated on the configuration identically 0. We calculatep ^* as well asp ⁽ⁿ⁾ , the points with the property that the extremal invariant measures have forp>p ⁽ⁿ⁾ infiniten-th moment of (x) and forp<p ⁽ⁿ⁾ finiten-th moment. We show the case 1>p ^*>p⁽²⁾>p⁽³⁾...p ⁽ⁿ⁾ >0, p⁽ⁿ⁾0 occurs for suitable values of the other parameters. Forp<p ⁽²⁾ we prove the system has a one parameter set of extremal invariant measures and we determine their domain of attraction. Part I contains statements of all results but only the proofs of the results about the process for values ofp withp<p ⁽²⁾ and the behaviour of then-th moments andp ⁽ⁿ⁾ .     

Inductive Construction of Repletion

The aim of this paper is to give a purely logical construction of repletion, i.e. the reflection of an arbitrary set to a replete one. Replete sets within constructive logic were introduced independently by M. Hyland and P. Taylor as the most restrictive but sufficiently general notion of predomain suitable for the purposes of denotational semantics à la Scott.For any set A its repletion R(A) appears as an inductively defined subset of S²(A) (A S) S which can be expressed within the internal language of a model of type theory. More explicitly, R(A) is the least subset of S²(A) containing all point filters and closed under a class of generalised limit processes. Improvements of our construction arise from several results saying that it suffices for the purpose of repletion to consider more restrictive classes of generalised limit processes.     

The caratheodory number for thek-core

Thek-core of the setS ⁿ is the intersection of the convex hull of all setsA S with ¦SA¦<-k. The Caratheodory number of thek-core is the smallest integerf (d,k) with the property thatx core _{kS, S} ⁿ implies the existence of a subsetT S such thatx core_kT and ¦T¦f (d, k). In this paper various properties off(d, k) are established.Research of this author was partially supported by Hungarian National Science Foundation grant no. 1812.     

Characterizations of logA≥logB and normaloid operators via Heinz inequality

In 1951, Heinz showed the following useful norm inequality:If A, B0and XB(H), then AXB ^r X^1–r A ^r XB ^r holds for r [0, 1]. In this paper, we shall show the following two applications of this inequality:Firstly, by using Furuta inequality, we shall show an extension of Cordes inequality. And we shall show a characterization of chaotic order (i.e., logAlogB) by a norm inequality.Secondly, we shall study the condition under which , where is Aluthge transformation ofT. Moreover we shall show a characterization of normaloid operators (i.e.,r(T)=T) via Aluthge transformation.
