Cyclicity of bicyclic operators and completeness of translates

We study cyclicity of operators on a separable Banach space which admit a bicyclic vector such that the norms of its images under the iterates of the operator satisfy certain growth conditions. A simple consequence of our main result is that a bicyclic unitary operator on a Banach space with separable dual is cyclic. Our results also imply that if is the shift operator acting on the weighted space of sequences , if the weight ω satisfies some regularity conditions and ω(n) = 1 for nonnegative n, then S is cyclic if . On the other hand one can see that S is not cyclic if the series diverges. We show that the question of Herrero whether either S or S* is cyclic on admits a positive answer when the series is convergent. We also prove completeness results for translates in certain Banach spaces of functions on .     

Dilation of Newton Polytope and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic Estimate

Let f(X) be a polynomial in n variables over the finite field  \mathbbF_q\mathbb{F}_{q}. Its Newton polytope Δ(f) is the convex closure in ℝ ⁿ of the origin and the exponent vectors (viewed as points in ℝ ⁿ ) of monomials in f(X). The minimal dilation of Δ(f) such that it contains at least one lattice point of $\mathbb{Z}_{>0}^{n}$\mathbb{Z}_{>0}^{n} plays a vital pole in the p-adic estimate of the number of zeros of f(X) in  \mathbbF_q\mathbb{F}_{q}. Using this fact, we obtain several tight and computational bounds for the dilation which unify and improve a number of previous results in this direction.     

On Representations of Integers in Thin Subgroups of {{\rm SL}_2({\mathbb {Z}})}

Let ${\Gamma < {\rm SL}(2, {\mathbb Z})}Let G < SL(2, \mathbb Z){\Gamma < {\rm SL}(2, {\mathbb Z})} be a free, finitely generated Fuchsian group of the second kind with no parabolics, and fix two primitive vectors v₀, w₀ ? \mathbb Z²  \  {0}{v_{0}, w_{0} \in \mathbb {Z}^{2} \, {\backslash} \, \{0\}}. We consider the set S{\mathcal {S}} of all integers occurring in áv₀g, w₀?{\langle v_{0}\gamma, w_{0}\rangle}, for g ? G{\gamma \in \Gamma} and the usual inner product on \mathbb R²{\mathbb {R}^2}. Assume that the critical exponent δ of Γ exceeds 0.99995, so that Γ is thin but not too thin. Using a variant of the circle method, new bilinear forms estimates and Gamburd’s 5/6-th spectral gap in infinite-volume, we show that S{\mathcal {S}} contains almost all of its admissible primes, that is, those not excluded by local (congruence) obstructions. Moreover, we show that the exceptional set \mathfrak E(N){\mathfrak {E}(N)} of integers |n| < N which are locally admissible (n ? S   (mod  q)   for all   q 3 1){(n \in \mathcal {S} \, \, ({\rm mod} \, q) \, \, {\rm for\,all} \,\, q \geq 1)} but fail to be globally represented, n ? S{n \notin \mathcal {S}}, has a power savings, |\mathfrak E(N)| << N^1-e₀{|\mathfrak {E}(N)| \ll N^{1-\varepsilon_{0}}} for some ${\varepsilon_{0} > 0}${\varepsilon_{0} > 0}, as N → ∞.     

M?bius transform, moment-angle complexes and Halperin–Carlsson conjecture

The motivation for this paper comes from the Halperin–Carlsson conjecture for (real) moment-angle complexes. We first give an algebraic combinatorics formula for the M?bius transform of an abstract simplicial complex K on [m]={1,…,m} in terms of the Betti numbers of the Stanley–Reisner face ring k(K) of K over a field k. We then employ a way of compressing K to provide the lower bound on the sum of those Betti numbers using our formula. Next we consider a class of generalized moment-angle complexes Z_K^{(\mathbb D, \mathbb S)}\mathcal{Z}_{K}^{(\underline{\mathbb{ D}}, \underline{\mathbb{ S}})}, including the moment-angle complex Z_K\mathcal{Z}_{K} and the real moment-angle complex \mathbbRZ_K\mathbb{R}\mathcal {Z}_{K} as special examples. We show that H^*(Z_K^{(\mathbb D, \mathbb S)};k)H^{*}(\mathcal{Z}_{K}^{(\underline{\mathbb{ D}}, \underline{\mathbb{ S}})};\mathbf{k}) has the same graded k-module structure as Tor  ^k[v](k(K),k). Finally we show that the Halperin–Carlsson conjecture holds for Z_K\mathcal{Z}_{K} (resp. \mathbb RZ_K\mathbb{ R}\mathcal{Z}_{K}) under the restriction of the natural T ^m -action on Z_K\mathcal{Z}_{K} (resp. (ℤ₂) ^m -action on \mathbb RZ_K\mathbb{ R}\mathcal{Z}_{K}).     

Hypersurfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space satisfying Lkψ?=?Aψ?+?b

We study hypersurfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski space \mathbbLⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb{L}^{n+1}} whose position vector ψ satisfies the condition L _k ψ = Aψ + b, where L _k is the linearized operator of the (k + 1)th mean curvature of the hypersurface for a fixed k = 0, . . . , n − 1, A ? \mathbbR^(n+1)×(n+1){A\in\mathbb{R}^{(n+1)\times(n+1)}} is a constant matrix and b ? \mathbbLⁿ⁺¹{b\in\mathbb{L}^{n+1}} is a constant vector. For every k, we prove that the only hypersurfaces satisfying that condition are hypersurfaces with zero (k + 1)th mean curvature, open pieces of totally umbilical hypersurfaces \mathbbSⁿ₁(r){\mathbb{S}^n_1(r)} or \mathbbHⁿ(-r){\mathbb{H}^n(-r)}, and open pieces of generalized cylinders \mathbbS^m₁(r)×\mathbbR^n-m{\mathbb{S}^m_1(r)\times\mathbb{R}^{n-m}}, \mathbbH^m(-r)×\mathbbR^n-m{\mathbb{H}^m(-r)\times\mathbb{R}^{n-m}}, with k + 1 ≤ m ≤ n − 1, or \mathbbL^m×\mathbbS^n-m(r){\mathbb{L}^m\times\mathbb{S}^{n-m}(r)}, with k + 1 ≤ n − m ≤ n − 1. This completely extends to the Lorentz-Minkowski space a previous classification for hypersurfaces in \mathbbRⁿ⁺¹{\mathbb{R}^{n+1}} given by Alías and Gürbüz (Geom. Dedicata 121:113–127, 2006).     

On the Similarity of Analytic Matrix Functions

Consider a domain , and two analytic matrix-valued functions functions . Consider also points and positive integers n ₁, n ₂, . . . , n _N . We are interested in the existence of an analytic function such that X(ω) is invertible, and G(ω) coincides with X(ω)F(ω)X(ω)⁻¹ up to order n _j at the point ω _j . We will see that such a function exists provided that F(ω _j ),G(ω _j ) have cyclic vectors, and the characteristic polynomials of F,G coincide up to order n _j at ω _j . This allows one to give a short proof to a result of Huang, Marcantognini and Young concerning spectral interpolation in the unit disk.

On the spectral norm of algebraic numbers

In this paper we continue to study the spectral norms and their completions ([4]) in the case of the algebraic closure $ \overline {\mathbb Q} $ of ? in ?. Let $ \widetilde{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}} $ be the completion of $ \overline {\mathbb Q} $ relative to the spectral norm. We prove that $ \widetilde{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}} $ can be identified with the R‐subalgebra of all symmetric functions of C(G), where C(G) denotes the ?‐Banach algebra of all continuous functions defined on the absolute Galois group G = Gal$ {\overline {\mathbb Q}} / {\mathbb Q} $. We prove that any compact, closed to conjugation subset of ? is the pseudo‐orbit of a suitable element of $ \widetilde{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}} $. We also prove that the topological closure of any algebraic number field in $ \widetilde{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}} $ is of the form $\widetilde{\mathbb{Q}[x]}$ with x in $ \widetilde{\overline{\mathbb{Q}}} $.

Periodicity of Non-Central Integral Arrangements Modulo Positive Integers      Hidehiko Kamiya  Akimichi Takemura  Hiroaki Terao 《Annals of Combinatorics》2011,15(3):449-464 An integral coefficient matrix determines an integral arrangement of hyperplanes in \mathbbRm{\mathbb{R}^m} . After modulo q reduction ${(q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }})}${(q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }})} , the same matrix determines an arrangement Aq{\mathcal{A}_q} of “hyperplanes” in \mathbbZmq{\mathbb{Z}^m_q} . In the special case of central arrangements, Kamiya, Takemura, and Terao [J. Algebraic Combin. 27(3), 317–330 (2008)] showed that the cardinality of the complement of Aq{\mathcal{A}_q} in \mathbbZmq{\mathbb{Z}^m_q} is a quasi-polynomial in ${q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }}}${q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }}} . Moreover, they proved in the central case that the intersection lattice of Aq{\mathcal{A}_q} is periodic from some q on. The present paper generalizes these results to the case of non-central arrangements. The paper also studies the arrangement [^(B)]m[0,a]{\hat{\mathcal{B}}_m^{[0,a]}} of Athanasiadis [J.

A spherical n-design is a point set on S 2 that gives rise to an equal weight cubature rule which is exact for all spherical polynomials of degree ≤n. The s-energy E s (X) of a point set of m distinct points is the sum of the potential for all pairs of distinct points . A sequence Ξ = {X m } of point sets X m ⊂S 2, where X m has the cardinality card(X m )=m, is well separated if for each pair of distinct points , where the constant λ is independent of m and X m . For all s>0, we derive upper bounds in terms of orders of n and m(n) of the s-energy E s (X m(n)) for well separated sequences Ξ = {X m(n)} of spherical n-designs X m(n) with card(X m(n))=m(n).       13.

For the general multipliers M we establish that [`(m(W))]{\overline{\mu(\Omega)}} is included in σ(M).

The Epstein zeta-function attached to Q is initially defined by for Re s>1, where the term with m=n=0 is to be omitted. We deduce complete asymptotic expansions of as y→+∞ (Theorem 1 in Sect. 2), and of its weighted mean value (with respect to y) in the form of a Laplace-Mellin transform of (Theorem 2 in Sect. 2). Prior to the proofs of these asymptotic expansions, the meromorphic continuation of over the whole s-plane is prepared by means of Mellin-Barnes integral transformations (Proposition 1 in Sect. 3). This procedure, differs slightly from other previously known methods of the analytic continuation, gives a new alternative proof of the Fourier expansion of (Proposition 2 in Sect. 3). The use of Mellin-Barnes type of integral formulae is crucial in all aspects of the proofs; several transformation properties of hypergeometric functions are especially applied with manipulation of these integrals.

Then, we deduce a full asymptotic expansion of the archimedean contribution to lp,p￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) and investigate the contribution of the finite (non-archimedean) term. Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis (GRH) on non-trivial zeros of L(s,pf×[(p)\tilde]f￠)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}^{\prime }) , the nth Li coefficient lp,p￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) is evaluated in a different way and it is shown that GRH implies the bound towards a generalized Ramanujan conjecture for the archimedean Langlands parameters μ π (v,j) of π. Namely, we prove that under GRH for L(s,pf×[(p)\tilde]f)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}) one has |Remp(v,j)| ￡ \frac14|\mathop {\mathrm {Re}}\mu_{\pi}(v,j)|\leq \frac{1}{4} for all archimedean places v at which π is unramified and all j=1,…,m.

Periodicity of Non-Central Integral Arrangements Modulo Positive Integers

An integral coefficient matrix determines an integral arrangement of hyperplanes in \mathbbR^m{\mathbb{R}^m} . After modulo q reduction ${(q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }})}${(q \in {\mathbb{Z}_{ >0 }})} , the same matrix determines an arrangement A_q{\mathcal{A}_q} of “hyperplanes” in \mathbbZ^m_q{\mathbb{Z}^m_q} . In the special case of central arrangements, Kamiya, Takemura, and Terao [J.

We show that if $\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\left( {{{\log \log \left| n \right|} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\log \log \left| n \right|} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right)^{1/12} } \right)$\left\| {e^{in\phi } } \right\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} = o\left( {\left( {{{\log \log \left| n \right|} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\log \log \left| n \right|} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\log \log \log \left| n \right|}}} \right)^{1/12} } \right), then φ is linear.     

On Li’s coefficients for the Rankin–Selberg <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>-functions

We define a generalized Li coefficient for the L-functions attached to the Rankin–Selberg convolution of two cuspidal unitary automorphic representations π and π ^′ of GL_m(\mathbbA_F)GL_{m}(\mathbb{A}_{F}) and GL_m^￠(\mathbbA_F)GL_{m^{\prime }}(\mathbb{A}_{F}) . Using the explicit formula, we obtain an arithmetic representation of the n th Li coefficient l_p,p^￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) attached to L(s,p_f×[(p)\tilde]_f^￠)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}^{\prime }) . Then, we deduce a full asymptotic expansion of the archimedean contribution to l_p,p^￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) and investigate the contribution of the finite (non-archimedean) term. Under the generalized Riemann hypothesis (GRH) on non-trivial zeros of L(s,p_f×[(p)\tilde]_f^￠)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}^{\prime }) , the nth Li coefficient l_p,p^￠(n)\lambda _{\pi ,\pi ^{\prime }}(n) is evaluated in a different way and it is shown that GRH implies the bound towards a generalized Ramanujan conjecture for the archimedean Langlands parameters μ _π (v,j) of π. Namely, we prove that under GRH for L(s,p_f×[(p)\tilde]_f)L(s,\pi _{f}\times \widetilde{\pi}_{f}) one has |Rem_p(v,j)| ￡ \frac14|\mathop {\mathrm {Re}}\mu_{\pi}(v,j)|\leq \frac{1}{4} for all archimedean places v at which π is unramified and all j=1,…,m.
