Int-decomposable algebras

Let D be a Dedekind domain with fraction field k. Let A be a D-algebra that, as a D-module, is free of finite rank. Let B be the extension of A to a k-algebra. The set of integer-valued polynomials over A   is defined to be Int(A)={f∈B[x]|f(A)⊆A}$\mathrm{Int}(A)=\{f\in B[x]|f(A)\subseteq A\}$. Restricting the coefficients to elements of k  , we obtain the commutative ring _Intk(A)={f∈k[x]|f(A)⊆A}${\mathrm{Int}}_k(A)=\{f\in k[x]|f(A)\subseteq A\}$; this makes Int(A)$\mathrm{Int}(A)$ a left _Intk(A)${\mathrm{Int}}_k(A)$-module. Previous researchers have noted instances when a D-module basis for A   is also an _Intk(A)${\mathrm{Int}}_k(A)$-basis for Int(A)$\mathrm{Int}(A)$. We classify all the D-algebras A   with this property. Along the way, we prove results regarding Int(A)$\mathrm{Int}(A)$, its localizations at primes of D, and finite residue rings of A.     

Quasi-Banach spaces of almost universal disposition

We show that for each p∈(0,1]$p\in (0,1]$ there exists a separable p  -Banach space _Gp${\mathbb{G}}_p$ of almost universal disposition, that is, having the following extension property: for each ε>0$\epsilon >0$ and each isometric embedding g:X→Y$g:X\to Y$, where Y is a finite-dimensional p-Banach space and X   is a subspace of _Gp${\mathbb{G}}_p$, there is an ε  -isometry f:Y→_Gp$f:Y\to {\mathbb{G}}_p$ such that x=f(g(x))$x=f(g(x))$ for all x∈X$x\in X$.     

The reduced expressions in a Coxeter system with a strictly complete Coxeter graph

Let (W,S)$(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system with a strictly complete Coxeter graph. The present paper concerns the set Red(z)$\mathrm{Red}(z)$ of all reduced expressions for any z∈W$z\in W$. By associating each bc-expression to a certain symbol, we describe the set Red(z)$\mathrm{Red}(z)$ and compute its cardinal |Red(z)|$|\mathrm{Red}(z)|$ in terms of symbols. An explicit formula for |Red(z)|$|\mathrm{Red}(z)|$ is deduced, where the Fibonacci numbers play a crucial role.     

Regularity for the fractional Gelfand problem up to dimension 7

We study the problem (−Δ)^su=λe^u${(-\mathrm{\Delta })}^{s}u=\lambda e^u$ in a bounded domain Ω⊂Rⁿ$\Omega \subset {\mathbb{R}}^n$, where λ   is a positive parameter. More precisely, we study the regularity of the extremal solution to this problem. Our main result yields the boundedness of the extremal solution in dimensions n≤7$n\le 7$ for all s∈(0,1)$s\in (0,1)$ whenever Ω   is, for every i=1,...,n$i=1,...,n$, convex in the _xi$x_i$-direction and symmetric with respect to {_xi=0}$\{x_i=0\}$. The same holds if n=8$n=8$ and s?0.28206...$s?0.28206...$, or if n=9$n=9$ and s?0.63237...$s?0.63237...$. These results are new even in the unit ball Ω=_B1$\Omega =B_1$.     

The inverse inertia problem for the complements of partial k-trees

Let F$\mathbb{F}$ be an infinite field with characteristic not equal to two. For a graph G=(V,E)$G=(V,E)$ with V={1,…,n}$V=\{1,\dots ,n\}$, let S(G;F)$S(G;\mathbb{F})$ be the set of all symmetric n×n$n\times n$ matrices A=[_ai,j]$A=[a_{i,j}]$ over F$\mathbb{F}$ with _ai,j≠0$a_{i,j}\ne 0$, i≠j$i\ne j$ if and only if ij∈E$ij\in E$. We show that if G is the complement of a partial k  -tree and m?k+2$m?k+2$, then for all nonsingular symmetric m×m$m\times m$ matrices K   over F$\mathbb{F}$, there exists an m×n$m\times n$ matrix U   such that U^TKU∈S(G;F)$U^{T}KU\in S(G;\mathbb{F})$. As a corollary we obtain that, if k+2?m?n$k+2?m?n$ and G is the complement of a partial k-tree, then for any two nonnegative integers p and q   with p+q=m$p+q=m$, there exists a matrix in S(G;R)$S(G;\mathbb{R})$ with p positive and q negative eigenvalues.     

Best quadrature formula on Sobolev class with Chebyshev weight

Using best interpolation function based on a given function information, we present a best quadrature rule of function on Sobolev class KW^r[-1,1]${\mathit{KW}}^r[-1,1]$ with Chebyshev weight. The given function information means that the values of a function f∈KW^r[-1,1]$f\in {\mathit{KW}}^r[-1,1]$ and its derivatives up to r-1$r-1$ order at a set of nodes x$\mathbf{x}$ are given. Error bounds are obtained, and the method is illustrated by some examples.     

An approximation method for strictly pseudocontractive mappings

Let K$K$ be a closed convex subset of a q$q$-uniformly smooth separable Banach space, T:K→K$T:K\to K$ a strictly pseudocontractive mapping, and f:K→K$f:K\to K$ an L$L$-Lispschitzian strongly pseudocontractive mapping. For any t∈(0,1)$t\in (0,1)$, let _xt$x_t$ be the unique fixed point of tf+(1-t)T$\mathit{tf}+(1-t)T$. We prove that if T$T$ has a fixed point, then {_xt}$\{x_t\}$ converges to a fixed point of T$T$ as t$t$ approaches to 0.     

Description of extended eigenvalues and extended eigenvectors of integration operators on the Wiener algebra

In the present paper we consider the Volterra integration operator V   on the Wiener algebra W(D)$W(\mathbb{D})$ of analytic functions on the unit disc D$\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane C$\mathbb{C}$. A complex number λ$\lambda$ is called an extended eigenvalue of V if there exists a nonzero operator A   satisfying the equation AV=λVA$\mathit{AV}=\lambda \mathit{VA}$. We prove that the set of all extended eigenvalues of V   is precisely the set C?{0}$\mathbb{C}?\{0\}$, and describe in terms of Duhamel operators and composition operators the set of corresponding extended eigenvectors of V$V$. The similar result for some weighted shift operator on _?p${?}_p$ spaces is also obtained.     

On characterized subgroups of compact abelian groups

Let X be a compact abelian group. A subgroup H of X   is called characterized if there exists a sequence u=(_un)$\mathbf{u}=(u_n)$ of characters of X   such that H=_su(X)$H=s_{\mathbf{u}}(X)$, where _su(X):={x∈X:(_un,x)→0 in T}$s_{\mathbf{u}}(X):=\{x\in X:(u_n,x)\to 0\text{in}\mathbb{T}\}$. Every characterized subgroup is an _Fσδ$F_{\sigma \delta }$-subgroup of X  . We show that every _Gδ$G_{\delta }$-subgroup of X is characterized. On the other hand, X   has non-characterized _Fσ$F_{\sigma }$-subgroups.     

Time-discretization scheme for quasi-static Maxwell's equations with a non-linear boundary condition

We study a time dependent eddy current equation for the magnetic field H$\mathit{H}$ accompanied with a non-linear degenerate boundary condition (BC), which is a generalization of the classical Silver–Müller condition for a non-perfect conductor. More exactly, the relation between the normal components of electrical E$\mathit{E}$ and magnetic H$\mathit{H}$ fields obeys the following power law ν×E=ν×(|H×ν|^α-1H×ν)$\mathit{\nu }\times \mathit{E}=\mathit{\nu }\times (|\mathit{H}\times \mathit{\nu }{|}^{\alpha -1}\mathit{H}\times \mathit{\nu })$ for some α∈(0,1]$\alpha \in (0,1]$. We establish the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution in a suitable function space under the minimal regularity assumptions on the boundary Γ$\Gamma$ and the initial data _H0${\mathit{H}}_0$. We design a non-linear time discrete approximation scheme based on Rothe's method and prove convergence of the approximations to a weak solution. We also derive the error estimates for the time-discretization.
