Uncertainty principles for the weinstein transform

The Weinstein transform satisfies some uncertainty principles similar to the Euclidean Fourier transform. A generalization and a variant of Cowling-Price theorem, Miyachi’s theorem, Beurling’s theorem, and Donoho-Stark’s uncertainty principle are obtained for the Weinstein transform.     

A Frobenius Theorem on Convenient Manifolds

 A Frobenius Theorem for finite dimensional, involutive subbundles of the tangent bundle of a convenient manifold is proved. As first key applications Lie’s second fundamental theorem and Nelson’s theorem are treated in the convenient case.     

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.     

Preface

We will interpret a partial theta identity in Ramanujan’s Lost Notebook as a weighted partition theorem involving partitions into distinct parts with smallest part odd. A special case of this yields a new result on the parity of the number of parts in such partitions, comparable to Euler’s pentagonal numbers theorem. We will provide simple and novel proofs of the weighted partition theorem and the special case. Our proof leads to a companion to Ramanujan’s partial theta identity which we will explain combinatorially.     

Carathéodory, Helly and the Others in the Max-Plus World

Carathéodory’s, Helly’s and Radon’s theorems are three basic results in discrete geometry. Their max-plus or tropical analogues have been proved by various authors. We show that more advanced results in discrete geometry also have max-plus analogues, namely, the colorful Carathéodory theorem and the Tverberg theorem. A conjecture connected to the Tverberg theorem—Sierksma’s conjecture—although still open for the usual convexity, is shown to be true in the max-plus setting.     

A Converse to Kluvánek’s Theorem

I. Kluvánek extended the Whittaker-Kotel’nikov-Shannon (WKS) theorem to the abstract harmonic analysis setting. To do this, the ‘band limited’ condition on the spectrum of a continuous square-integrable function (analogue signal) required for classical WKS theorem is replaced by an ‘almost disjoint’ translates condition arising from the Fourier transform of the function vanishing almost everywhere outside a transversal of a compact quotient group. A converse of Kluvánek’s theorem is established, i.e., if the representation given by the abstract WKS theorem holds for a continuous square-integrable function with support of its Fourier transform essentially A, then A is a subset of a transversals of Γ/Λ

The polarized Ramsey’s theorem

We study the effective and proof-theoretic content of the polarized Ramsey’s theorem, a variant of Ramsey’s theorem obtained by relaxing the definition of homogeneous set. Our investigation yields a new characterization of Ramsey’s theorem in all exponents, and produces several combinatorial principles which, modulo bounding for formulas, lie (possibly not strictly) between Ramsey’s theorem for pairs and the stable Ramsey’s theorem for pairs. We are grateful to D. Hirschfeldt, A. Montalbán, and R. Soare for making our collaboration possible and for helpful comments and suggestions. We thank J. Schmerl for first bringing the subject of polarized partitions to our attention and J. Mileti for his generous insights. We also thank one anonymous referee for valuable observations and corrections.

Fundamental Theorems for Clifford Algebra-Valued Distributions in Elliptic Clifford Analysis

A fundamental theorem in Elliptic Clifford Analysis (ECA), with the standard vector Dirac operator, is presented that is valid for Clifford algebra-valued distributions. This theorem holds under fairly general conditions on the allowed singularities of the right-hand side distributions and on the region of integration. Next a specialization of this fundamental theorem is proved that forms the starting point for solving boundary value problems with distributional sources in ECA. Finally, distributional equivalents of the Residue theorem, Cauchy’s theorem and Cauchy’s integral theorem are stated.     

A-Browder＇s Theorem and Generalized a-Weyl＇s Theorem

Two variants of the essential approximate point spectrum are discussed. We find for example that if one of them coincides with the left Drazin spectrum then the generalized a-Weyl＇s theorem holds, and conversely for a-isoloid operators. We also study the generalized a-Weyl＇s theorem for Class A operators.     

A simple proof of some ergodic theorems

Some ideas of T. Kamae’s proof using nonstandard analysis are employed to give a simple proof of Birkhoff’s theorem in a classical setting as well as Kingman’s subadditive ergodic theorem.     

On Ha＇s Version of Set-valued Ekeland＇s Variational Principle

By using the concept of cone extensions and Dancs-Hegedus-Medvegyev theorem, Ha [Some variants of the Ekeland variational principle for a set-valued map. J. Optim. Theory Appl., 124, 187–206 (2005)] established a new version of Ekeland’s variational principle for set-valued maps, which is expressed by the existence of strict approximate minimizer for a set-valued optimization problem. In this paper, we give an improvement of Ha’s version of set-valued Ekeland’s variational principle. Our proof is direct and it need not use Dancs-Hegedus-Medvegyev theorem. From the improved Ha’s version, we deduce a Caristi-Kirk’s fixed point theorem and a Takahashi’s nonconvex minimization theorem for set-valued maps. Moreover, we prove that the above three theorems are equivalent to each other.     

Weyl’s theorem and thin spectra

Using the notion of thin sets we prove a theorem of Weyl type for the Wolf essential spectrum ofT ∈β (H). *Further we show that Weyl’s theorem holds for a restriction convexoid operator and consequently modify some results of Berberian. Finally we show that Weyl’s theorem holds for a paranormal operator and that a polynomially compact paranormal operator is a compact perturbation of a diagnoal normal operator. A structure theorem for polynomially compact paranormal operators is also given.     

A Brauer’s theorem and related results

Given a square matrix A, a Brauer’s theorem [Brauer A., Limits for the characteristic roots of a matrix. IV. Applications to stochastic matrices, Duke Math. J., 1952, 19(1), 75–91] shows how to modify one single eigenvalue of A via a rank-one perturbation without changing any of the remaining eigenvalues. Older and newer results can be considered in the framework of the above theorem. In this paper, we present its application to stabilization of control systems, including the case when the system is noncontrollable. Other applications presented are related to the Jordan form of A and Wielandt’s and Hotelling’s deflations. An extension of the aforementioned Brauer’s result, Rado’s theorem, shows how to modify r eigenvalues of A at the same time via a rank-r perturbation without changing any of the remaining eigenvalues. The same results considered by blocks can be put into the block version framework of the above theorem.     

Ordering in mechanical geometry theorem proving

Ordering in mechanical geometry theorem proving is studied from geometric viewpoint and some new ideas are proposed. For Thebault’s theorem which is the most difficult theorem that has ever been proved by Wu’s method, a very simple proof using Wu’s method under a linear order is discovered.

Bordism classes represented by multiple point manifolds of immersed manifolds

We present a geometrical version of Herbert’s theorem determining the homology classes represented by the multiple point manifolds of a self-transverse immersion. Herbert’s theorem and generalizations can readily be read off from this result. The simple geometrical proof is based on ideas in Herbert’s paper. We also describe the relationship between this theorem and the homotopy theory of Thom spaces.     

On some generalizations of Ekeland��s principle and inward contractions in gauge spaces

We give generalizations in complete gauge spaces of the following results: Bishop-Phelps’ theorem, Ekeland’s variational principle, Caristi’s fixed point theorem, the drop theorem and the flower petal theorem. We show that our generalizations are equivalent. We apply those results to obtain fixed point theorems for multivalued contractions defined on a closed subset of a complete gauge space and satisfying a generalized inwardness condition.     

On the realization of symmetries in quantum mechanics

The aim of this paper is to give a simple, geometric proof of Wigner’s theorem on the realization of symmetries in quantum mechanics that clarifies its relation to projective geometry. Although several proofs exist already, it seems that the relevance of Wigner’s theorem is not fully appreciated in general. It is Wigner’s theorem which allows the use of linear realizations of symmetries and therefore guarantees that, in the end, quantum theory stays a linear theory. In the present paper, we take a strictly geometrical point of view in order to prove this theorem. It becomes apparent that Wigner’s theorem is nothing else but a corollary of the fundamental theorem of projective geometry. In this sense, the proof presented here is simple, transparent and therefore accessible even to elementary treatments in quantum mechanics.     

Arithmetic height functions over finitely generated fields

In this paper, we propose a new height function for a variety defined over a finitely generated field over ℚ. For this height function, we prove Northcott’s theorem and Bogomolov’s conjecture, so that we can recover the original Raynaud’s theorem (Manin-Mumford’s conjecture).
