Divisor Functions in the Ring of Gaussian Integers Weighted by the Generalized Klosterman Sum

Let _a,b,c () be the number of factorizations of a Gaussian number in the form = ₁ ^a ₂ ^b ₃ ^c , where a, b, and c are natural numbers. In the ring of Gaussian numbers, we construct an asymptotic formula for a summatory function of _a,b,c () weighted by the generalized Klosterman function.

Position and Height of the Global Maximum of a Twice Differentiable Stochastic Process

For a stochastic process with absolutely continuous sample path derivative, a formula for the joint density of (T, Z), the position and height of the global maximum of in a closed interval, is given. The formula is derived using the generalized Rices formula. The presented result can be applied both to stationary and non-stationary processes under mild assumptions on the process. The formula for the density is explicit but involves integrals that have to be computed using numerical integration. The computation of the density is discussed and some numerical examples are given.

On the Completeness and Decidability of the Horn‐Like Fragment of the First‐Order Linear Temporal Logic

We prove the completeness and decidability of the Hornlike sequents, specifically, the socalled D₂sequents (of the firstorder linear temporal logic) considered in the author's paper [Lith. Math. J., 41(3), 266–281 (2001)]. In this paper, with the help of the infinitary calculus G_L, grounded by the author in his earlier papers, for D₂sequents we construct a D₂Sat calculus of the socalled saturated type consisting of decidable deductive procedures replacing the omegarule for the always operator. In the present paper, in order to prove the completeness and decidability of the calculus D₂Sat, we construct the socalled invariant decidable calculus D₂IN. We prove the equivalence of the calculi D₂IN, D₂Sat, and G _L ^** for the socalled saturated D₂sequents. From this equivalence, by reducing an arbitrary D₂sequent to a saturated D₂sequent, and also from the completeness of the G _L ^** calculus and decidability of the invariant calculus D₂IN, we deduce the completeness and decidability of the calculus D₂Sat in the class of D₂sequents.

Products of Quasi-p-Pseudocompact Spaces

Given p () , we determine when a product of quasi-p-pseudocompact spaces preserves this property. In particular, we analyze the product of quasi-p-pseudocompact subspaces of () containing . We give examples of spaces X, Y, X _s , Ys which are quasi-p-pseudocompact for every p *, but X Y is not pseudocompact, and X _s Y _s is pseudocompact and it is not quasi-s-pseudocompact for each s *. Besides, we prove that every pseudocompact space X of with X, is quasi-p-pseudocompact for some p *. Finally, we introduce, for each p *, the class P _p of all spaces X such that X × Y is quasi-p-pseudocompact when so is Y; and we prove: (1) the intersection of classes P _p ( _p *) coincides with the Frol"ik class; (2) every class P _p is closed under arbitrary products; (3) the partial ordered set ( P _p p ,) is isomorphic to the set of equivalence classes of free ultrafilters on with the Rudin–Keisler order. A topological characterization of RK-minimal ultrafilters is also given.     

The Darboux-Type Theorems for ∂-Symplectic and ∂-Contact Structures

A -symplectic structure on a complex manifold M of complex dimension2n is given by a smooth -closed (2, 0)-form such that ⁿ is nonvanishing. We prove that a version of the Darboux theorem isvalid for such a structure: locally can be represented as _i=1 ⁿ f _i f _{n + i} for appropriate smooth complex valuedfunctions f ₁, ..., f _2n . We also present a contact version of this theorem.

An upper bound is established for the upper bounds of the Fourier-Walsh coefficients a_n(f) whose modulus of continuity (,f) does not exceed a given modulus of continuity (). In the case of convex majorants of (), these bounds are attained for individual ordinal numbers n.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 6, No. 6, pp. 725–736, December, 1969.     

On Piecewise-Constant Approximation of Continuous Functions of n Variables in Integral Metrics

We consider the approximation by piecewise-constant functions for classes of functions of many variables defined by moduli of continuity of the form (₁, ..., _n ) = ₁(₁) + ... + _n ( _n ), where _i ( _i ) are ordinary moduli of continuity that depend on one variable. In the case where _i ( _i ) are convex upward, we obtain exact error estimates in the following cases: (i) in the integral metric L ₂ for (₁, ..., _n ) = ₁(₁) + ... + _n ( _n ); (ii) in the integral metric L _p (p 1) for (₁, ..., _n ) = c ₁₁ + ... + c _{n n} ; (iii) in the integral metric L _{(2, ..., 2, 2r)} (r = 2, 3, ...) for (₁, ..., _n ) = ₁(₁) + ... + _{n – 1}( _{n – 1}) + c _{n n} .     

On the width of ordered sets and Boolean algebras

Thewidth (chain number) of a partial order P, < is the smallest cardinal such that ¦A¦< 1 + whenever A is an antichain (chain) in P. We prove that, if a partial order (P, <) has width and cf()=, then P contains antichains A_n (n<) such that ¦A ₀¦<¦A₁¦ <...<={¦A_n¦: n < < } and either A₀1 A₂< ... or A₀>A₁ >A₂> ... A similar structure result is obtained for partial orders with chain number if cf()=. As an application we solve a problem of van Douwen, Monk and Rubin [1] by showing that if a Boolean algebra has width , thencf() .This work has been partially supported by NATO grant No. 339/84.Presented by Bjarni Jonsson.     

Increase of stable processes

One says thatt>0 is an increase time for a real-valued path if stays above the level (t) immediately after timet, and below (t) immediately before timet. Dvoretzkyet al.,⁽¹⁰⁾ proved that Brownian motion has no increase times a.s. This result is extended here to (strictly) stable processes. Specifically, the probability that a stable processX possesses increase times is 0 if and only ifP(X ₁0)1/2.     

The transfer of the Lyapunov integral criterion to two-dimensional periodic systems of second order

Two possibilities of the transfer of the Lyapunov integral criterion [1, p. 203] (see also [2; 3, p. 177]) for the boundedness of all the solutions of the scalar equation x+(t)x=0 with nonnegative-periodic function(t) to the two-dimensional systems x=A(t)x with piecewise continuous -periodic matrix coefficients are indicated.     

Quasimonotonicity,regularity and duality for nonlinear systems of partial differential equations

Summary We prove partial regularity for the vector-valued differential forms solving the system (A(x, ))=0, d=0, and for the gradient of the vector-valued functions solving the system div A(x, Du)=B(x, u, Du). Here the mapping A, with A(x, w) (1+ + ¦¦²)^{(p – 2)/2} (p2), satisfies a quasimonotonicity condition which, when applied to the gradient A(x, )=Df(x, ) of a real-valued functionf, is analogous to but stronger than quasiconvexity for f.

Sufficient Conditions for the Existence of Disintegrations

Let be a probability space and a partition of . A necessary and sufficient condition is given for the existence of a -additive and measurable disintegration of P on . It is also shown that P admits a -additive (but not measurable) disintegration on whenever is a standard space and the set (₁, ₂):₁ and ₂ are in the same element of } is coanalytic in ×. Finally, sufficient statistics (in the classical Fisherian sense) are investigated by using -additive disintegrations as conditional probabilities.     

Linear response of a viscous liquid sheet to external pressure perturbation. Long wave approximations

This paper is concerned with the linear signal response analysis of a thin viscous liquid sheet which is at rest in an appropriate frame of reference and in contact with passive external media, and on which localized external pressures act from the passive media as sources of perturbation.The frame of the analysis is provided by general formulae for the response signals of the sheet in the two excitation modes, sinuous and varicose, which result as the solution of the appropriate fluid dynamic initial-boundary value problems by the Fourier-Laplace transform technique. These formulae display how the signals depend on the nature of the perturbation and on the spectrum of the (linear) eigenmodes of the sheet.The signals can be evaluated either numerically or, as initiated in this paper, analytically, in long wave approximations. The long wave approximation will be seen in the sequel to concentrate on particular eigenmodes of the sheet spectrum, with small values k of the wave vector along the sheet. The present paper is devoted mainly to a detailed analysis of the spectrum of eigenmodes of the sheet, and to the formulation of long wave approximations of (linear) response signals of the sheet in the context of this analysis.It turns out that the sheet spectrum of eigenmodes depends on only one characteristic number , which depends on the (positive) fluid parameters: the surface tension at (both) the interfaces of the sheet, the density of the fluid, its kinematic viscosity , and on the thickness h of the sheet: This number is closely related, by to the Ohnesorge number where is the dynamic viscosity of the liquid.It will be shown in the sequel that of the infinitely many branches of the sheet spectrum only two (pairs of) soft branches, one sinuous and one varicose, will be relevant for a long wave approximation. For these branches asymptotic expansions of the dispersion relations (k) between the (complex) mode frequencies and for long waves (i.e. for k  0), which obey (k)  0 with k  0, will be derived.The analytic long wave dispersion relations for the (soft) sinuous and varicose spectral branches allow a very favourable insight into the qualitative mode behaviour, including analogies beyond liquid sheets. They show e.g. that to their lowest orders in k the soft sinuous modes are nondispersive, i.e. and only weakly absorptive, i.e.   k² for low viscosity and   k⁴ for high viscosity ( < 0). Their signals are therefore expected to have some resemblance to signals of a flexible membrane on the one side and those of a (2-dimensional) diffusion process, or a hyperdiffusion process where is replaced by The behaviour of the soft varicose modes will be seen to depend on the value of : For ² < 4 the asymptotic expansion for k  0 gives

The Szlenk index and local ℓ<Subscript>1</Subscript>-indices

We introduce two new local ₁-indices of the same type as the Bourgain ₁-index; the ⁺₁-index and the ⁺₁-weakly null index. We show that the ⁺₁-weakly null index of a Banach space X is the same as the Szlenk index of X, provided X does not contain ₁. The ⁺₁-weakly null index has the same form as the Bourgain ₁-index: if it is countable it must take values for some <₁. The different ₁-indices are closely related and so knowing the Szlenk index of a Banach space helps us calculate its ₁-index, via the ⁺₁-weakly null index. We show that I(C(^{))=^1++1}.
