Sobolev Inequalities on Forms and <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Superscript>-Cohomology on Complete Riemannian Manifolds

We prove some Sobolev inequalities on differential forms over a class of complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds with suitable geometric conditions. Moreover, we establish some L ^p,q -estimates and existence theorems of the Cartan-De Rham equation and the Hodge systems. As applications, we prove some vanishing theorems of the L ^p,q -cohomology and prove the L ^q -solvability of the nonlinear p-Laplace equation on forms on complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds with suitable geometric conditions.     

Elliptic operators with general Wentzell boundary conditions,analytic semigroups and the angle concavity theorem

We prove a very general form of the Angle Concavity Theorem, which says that if (T (t)) defines a one parameter semigroup acting over various L^p spaces (over a fixed measure space), which is analytic in a sector of opening angle θ_p, then the maximal choice for θ_p is a concave function of 1 – 1/p. This and related results are applied to give improved estimates on the optimal L^p angle of ellipticity for a parabolic equation of the form ?u /?t = Au, where A is a uniformly elliptic second order partial differential operator with Wentzell or dynamic boundary conditions. Similar results are obtained for the higher order equation ?u /?t = (–1)^{m +l}A^mu, for all positive integers m.     

Bessel (Riesz) potentials on banach function spaces and their applications I theory

In this paper, we shall introduce the concept of the Bessel (Riesz) potential Köthe function spacesX ^s (X ^s ) and give some dual estimates for a class of operators determined by a semi-group in the spacesL ^q (?T, T; X ^s ) (L ^q (?T, T; X ^s )). Moreover, some time-spaceL ^p ?L ^p′ estimates for the semi-group exp(it(-Δ) ^m/2) and the operatorA:=∫ ₀ ^t exp(i(t-τ)(-Δ) ^m/2)·dτ in the Lebesgue-Besov spacesL ^q (?T,T;B _p,2 ^s are given. On the basis of these results, in a subsequent paper we shall present some further applications to a class of nonlinear wave equations.     

Embedding Theorems for Hölder Classes Defined on p-Adic Linear Spaces

We prove analogues of P. L. Ul’yanov and V. A. Andrienko results concerning embeddings of L^q Hölder spaces into Lebesgue spaces L^r or L^r Hölder spaces in the case 1 ≤ q < r ≤ 2 for functions defined on p-adic linear spaces. The conditions presented in these theorems are sharp. Also we give necessary and sufficient conditions for such embeddings in the case 1 ≤ q < r < ∞ that generalize recent results of S. S. Platonov.

     

Periodic solutions of second order differential equations in Banach spaces

We use operator-valued Fourier multiplier theorems to study second order differential equations in Banach spaces. We establish maximal regularity results in L^p and C^s for strong solutions of a complete second order equation. In the second part, we study mild solutions for the second order problem. Two types of mild solutions are considered. When the operator A involved is the generator of a strongly continuous cosine function, we give characterizations in terms of Fourier multipliers and spectral properties of the cosine function. The results obtained are applied to elliptic partial differential operators.

Time decay of the solution to the Cauchy problem for a three-dimensional model of nonsimple thermoelasticity

This paper is devoted to the investigation of the solution to the Cauchy problem for a system of partial differential equations describing thermoelasticity of nonsimple materials in a three-dimensional space. The model of linear dynamical thermoelasticity of nonsimple materials is considered as the system of partial differential equations of fourth order. In this paper, we proposed a convenient evolutionary method of approach to the system of equations of nonsimple thermoelasticity. We proved the L^p−L^q time decay estimates for the solution to the Cauchy problem for linear thermoelasticity of nonsimple materials.     

On Singular Integral Operators with Rough Kernel Along Surface

In this note we give a simple method to transfer the effect of the surface to the radial function in the kernel of singular integral along surface. Using this idea, we give some continuity of the singular integrals along surface with Hardy space function kernels on some function spaces, such as L^p(\mathbb Rⁿ),L^p(\mathbb Rⁿ,w){L^p({\mathbb R}^n),L^p({\mathbb R}^n,\omega)}, Triebel–Lizorkin spaces [(F)\dot]_p^s,q(\mathbb Rⁿ){{\dot F}_{p}^{s,q}({\mathbb R}^n)}, Besov spaces [(B)\dot]_p^s,q(\mathbb Rⁿ){{\dot B}_{p}^{s,q}({\mathbb R}^n)}, generalized Morrey spaces L^p,f(\mathbb Rⁿ){L^{p,\phi}({\mathbb R}^n)} and Herz spaces [(K)\dot]_p^{a, q}(\mathbb Rⁿ){\dot K_p^{\alpha, q}({\mathbb R}^n)}. Our results improve and extend substantially some known results on the singular integral operators along surface.     

Differentiable functions defined in closed sets. A problem of Whitney

In 1934, Whitney raised the question of how to recognize whether a function f defined on a closed subset X of ℝ ⁿ is the restriction of a function of class 𝒞 ^p . A necessary and sufficient criterion was given in the case n=1 by Whitney, using limits of finite differences, and in the case p=1 by Glaeser (1958), using limits of secants. We introduce a necessary geometric criterion, for general n and p, involving limits of finite differences, that we conjecture is sufficient at least if X has a “tame topology”. We prove that, if X is a compact subanalytic set, then there exists q=q _X (p) such that the criterion of order q implies that f is 𝒞 ^p . The result gives a new approach to higher-order tangent bundles (or bundles of differential operators) on singular spaces.

Spaces of functions of fractional smoothness on an irregular domain

On the Theory of <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Subscript>)-Banach Lattices

Given 1≤ p,q < ∞, let BL_pL_q be the class of all Banach lattices X such that X is isometrically lattice isomorphic to a band in some L_p(L_q)-Banach lattice. We show that the range of a positive contractive projection on any BL_pL_q-Banach lattice is itself in BL_pL_q. It is a consequence of this theorem and previous results that BL_pL_q is first-order axiomatizable in the language of Banach lattices. By studying the pavings of arbitrary BL_pL_q-Banach lattices by finite dimensional sublattices that are themselves in this class, we give an explicit set of axioms for BL_pL_q. We also consider the class of all sublattices of L_p(L_q)-Banach lattices; for this class (when p/q is not an integer) we give a set of axioms that are similar to Krivine’s well-known axioms for the subspaces of L_p-Banach spaces (when p/2 is not an integer). We also extend this result to the limiting case q = ∞.     

Global solution of the Cauchy problem in nonlinear thermodi.usion in solid body

We prove a theorem about global existence (in time) of the solution to the initial‐value problem for a nonlinear hyperbolic parabolic system of coupled partial differential equation of second order describing the process of thermodiffusion in solid body. The corresponding global existence theorems has been proved using the L^p ‐ L^q time decay estimates for the solution of the associated linearized problem. Next, we proved the energy estimate in the Sobolev space with constant independent of time. Such an energy estimate allows us to apply the standard (continuation argument and to continue the local solution to one de.ned for all t ∈ 〈0, ∞)).     

Quantitative property A, Poincaré inequalities, Lp-compression and Lp-distortion for metric measure spaces

We introduce a quantitative version of Property A in order to estimate the L ^p -compressions of a metric measure space X. We obtain various estimates for spaces with sub-exponential volume growth. This quantitative property A also appears to be useful to yield upper bounds on the L ^p -distortion of finite metric spaces. Namely, we obtain new optimal results for finite subsets of homogeneous Riemannian manifolds. We also introduce a general form of Poincaré inequalities that provide constraints on compressions, and lower bounds on distortion. These inequalities are used to prove the optimality of some of our results.      

Spaces of functions with dominating mixed properties of smoothness as <Emphasis Type="Italic">B</Emphasis>-products

It is proved, that certain known function spaces (such as S _p,q ^s B, S _p,q ^s F spaces of functions of mixed smoothness and approximation spaces A _p,q ^s ) can be characterized in terms of spaces of Sobolev-Liouville and Nikolskii-Besov type spaces and so called “B-products”. The representation theorems of S _p,q ^s B spaces are proved using B-products and covering method. It is proved that space S _p,q ^s B is a “real” method interpolation space for the pair of corresponding spaces of Nikolskii-Besov type.     

Elementary aspects ofB p,q s (Kn) andF p,q s (Kn) spaces

In the first part of this paper, we discuss some properties of S^Ω(K_n), L _P ^Ω (K_n) and L _P ^Ω (K_n;l_q) spaces, give the Plancherel-Polya-Nikol’skij type inequalities and some multiplier theorems. In the second part of this paper, using the results of Part I we prove some preliminary results for the spaces B _p,q ^s (K_n) and F _p,q ^s (K_n).     

The Stability in W s,p (Γ) Spaces of L 2-Projections on Some Convex Sets

ABSTRACT

For a polygonal open bounded subset of ?², of boundary Γ, we study stability estimates for the projection operator from L ¹(Γ) on a convex set K _h of continuous piecewise affine functions satisfying bound constraints. We establish stability estimates in L ^p (Γ) and in W ^s,p (Γ) for 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞ and 0 < s ≤ 1. This kind of result plays a crucial role in error estimates for the numerical approximation of optimal control problems of partial differential equations with bilateral control constraints.     

Equazioni quasi ellittiche e spaziL p, θ (ω, δ) (I)

Summary Regularity theorems inL ^{2, θ} (ω, δ) spaces are proved for weak solutions of quasielliptic differential equations. In particular, regularization results are obtained in the class of holder continuous functions (with respect to a suitable metric related to the operator). As a consequence, we obtain results and estimates in L^p andL ^{p, θ} spaces for the solution of the Dirichlet problem.

A note on operator‐valued Fourier multipliers on Besov spaces

Let X be a Banach space. We show that each m : ? \ {0} → L (X ) satisfying the Mikhlin condition sup_{x ≠0}(‖m (x )‖ + ‖xm ′(x )‖) < ∞ defines a Fourier multiplier on B ^s _p,q (?; X ) if and only if 1 < p < ∞ and X is isomorphic to a Hilbert space; each bounded measurable function m : ? → L (X ) having a uniformly bounded variation on dyadic intervals defines a Fourier multiplier on B ^s _p,q (?; X ) if and only if 1 < p < ∞ and X is a UMD space.

Kolmogorov and linear widths of classes of <Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis>-monotone integrable functions

Let s ∈ ℕ and let Δ ₊ ^s be the set of functions x: I ↦ ℝ on a finite interval I such that the divided differences [x; t ₀, ..., t _s ] of order s of these functions are nonnegative for all collections of s + 1 different points t ₀, ..., t _s ∈ I. For the classes Δ ₊ ^s B _p : = Δ ₊ ^s ∩ B _p , where B _p is the unit ball in L _p , we determine the orders of Kolmogorov and linear widths in the spaces _Lq for 1 ≤ q > p ≤ ∞. __________ Translated from Ukrains’kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 57, No. 12, pp. 1633–1652, December, 2005.
