Bases formed of successive primitives

Necessary and sufficient conditions are found in order for the system of successive primitives $$\left\{ {F_n (z) = \sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {\frac{{a_{k - n} }}{{k!}}z^k } } \right\}, n = 0,1,2, ...,$$ generated by the integer-valued function \(F_n (z) = \sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {\frac{{a_k }}{{k!}}zk} \) of growth no higher than first order of the normal typeσ(F₀(z) ε [1;σ] to form a quasi-power basis in the class [1; σ].     

Eine Verschärfung der Abschätzung des Restes Taylorscher Näherungspolynome

I begin with a new short proof of: (I) LetP(t) inR ^d be a function oft havingn continuous derivatives fora≤t≤x. ThenP(x)∈ convK, where $$K = \left\{ {\sum\limits_{j = 0}^{n - 1} {\frac{{(x - a)^j }}{{j!}}} P^{(j)} (a) + \frac{{(x - a)^n }}{{n!}}P^{(n)} (t),a \leqslant t \leqslant x} \right\}.$$ for applying (I) let bef(t) a real function such that the point ((t?a) ⁿ⁺¹,f(t)) fulfills the conditions of (I). Then (I) gives a sharper estimate of then ^th remainder term off(x) than the Lagrange remainder formula. Iff( ⁿ )(t) is also convex ina≤t≤x, thenf(x)∈[c,d], where $$\begin{gathered} c = \sum\limits_{j = 0}^{n - 1} {\frac{{(x - a)^j }}{{j!}}f^{(j)} (a) + \frac{{(x - a)^n }}{{n!}}f^{(n)} \left( {\frac{{na + x}}{{n + 1}}} \right)} , \hfill \\ d = \sum\limits_{j = 0}^{n - 1} {\frac{{(x - a)^j }}{{j!}}f^{(j)} (a) + \frac{{(x - a)^n }}{{n!}}} \frac{{nf^{(n)} (a) + f^{(n)} (x)}}{{n + 1}}. \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$      

On some new identities for the Fibonomial coefficients

Let F _n be the nth Fibonacci number. The Fibonomial coefficients \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ k \\ \end{array} } \right]_F\) are defined for n ≥ k > 0 as follows $$\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ k \\ \end{array} } \right]_F = \frac{{F_n F_{n - 1} \cdots F_{n - k + 1} }} {{F_1 F_2 \cdots F_k }},$$ with \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ 0 \\ \end{array} } \right]_F = 1\) and \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} n \\ k \\ \end{array} } \right]_F = 0\) . In this paper, we shall provide several identities among Fibonomial coefficients. In particular, we prove that $$\sum\limits_{j = 0}^{4l + 1} {\operatorname{sgn} (2l - j)\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {4l + 1} \\ j \\ \end{array} } \right]_F F_{n - j} = \frac{{F_{2l - 1} }} {{F_{4l + 1} }}\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {4l + 1} \\ {2l} \\ \end{array} } \right]_F F_{n - 4l - 1} ,}$$ holds for all non-negative integers n and l.     

Liouville Systems of Mean Field Equations

In this article, we discuss the recent work of Lin and Zhang on the Liouville system of mean field equations: $$\Delta{u}_i+\sum_{j}a_{ij}\rho_{j} ({\frac{{h_j}e^{u_{j}}}{\int_{M}{h_{j}e^{u_{j}}}}-{\frac{1}{|M|}}})=0\,\, \quad{\rm on}\, M,$$ where M is a compact Riemann surface and |M| is the area, or $$\Delta{u}_i+\sum_{j}a_{ij}\rho_{j} \frac{{h_j}e^{u_{j}}}{\int_{\Omega}{h_{j}e^{u_{j}}}}=0\,\, \quad{\rm in}\, \Omega,$$ $${u_j}=0,\,\, \quad{\rm on}\, \partial\Omega, $$ where ?? is a bounded domain in ${\mathbb{R}^2}$ . Among other things, we completely determine the set of non-critical parameters and derive a degree counting formula for these systems.     

On the rational (K + 1,K + 1)-type difference equation

In this paper we investigate the boundedness character of the positive solutions of the rational difference equation of the form $$x_{n + 1} = \frac{{a_0 + \sum\nolimits_{j = 1}^k {a_j x_{n - j + 1} } }}{{b_0 + \sum\nolimits_{j = 1}^k {b_j x_{n - j + 1} } }}, n = 0,1,...$$ where k ε N, andaj,bj, j = 0,1,…, k, are nonnegative numbers such thatb ₀+∑ _j=1 ^k b _j x _n-j+1>0 for everyn ∈N ∪{0}. In passing we confirm several conjectures recently posed in the paper: E. Camouzis, G. Ladas and E. P. Quinn, On third order rational difference equations (part 6).

On the normalizing multiplier of the generalized Jackson kernel

We consider the question of evaluating the normalizing multiplier $$\gamma _{n,k} = \frac{1}{\pi }\int_{ - \pi }^\pi {\left( {\frac{{sin\tfrac{{nt}}{2}}}{{sin\tfrac{t}{2}}}} \right)^{2k} dt} $$ for the generalized Jackson kernel J _n,k (t). We obtain the explicit formula $$\gamma _{n,k} = 2\sum\limits_{p = 0}^{\left[ {k - \tfrac{k}{n}} \right]} {( - 1)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {2k} \\ p \\ \end{array} } \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {k(n + 1) - np - 1} \\ {k(n - 1) - np} \\ \end{array} } \right)} $$ and the representation $$\gamma _{n,k} = \sqrt {\frac{{24}}{\pi }} \cdot \frac{{(n - 1)^{2k - 1} }}{{\sqrt {2k - 1} }}\left[ {1\frac{1}{8} \cdot \frac{1}{{2k - 1}} + \omega (n,k)} \right],$$ , where $$\left| {\omega (n,k)} \right| < \frac{4}{{(2k - 1)\sqrt {ln(2k - 1)} }} + \sqrt {12\pi } \cdot \frac{{k^{\tfrac{3}{2}} }}{{n - 1}}\left( {1 + \frac{1}{{n - 1}}} \right)^{2k - 2} .$$ .     

Asymptotic properties for the loglog laws under positive association

Let {X _n : n ?? 1} be a strictly stationary sequence of positively associated random variables with mean zero and finite variance. Set $S_n = \sum\limits_{k = 1}^n {X_k }$ , $Mn = \mathop {\max }\limits_{k \leqslant n} \left| {S_k } \right|$ , n ?? 1. Suppose that $0 < \sigma ^2 = EX_1^2 + 2\sum\limits_{k = 2}^\infty {EX_1 X_k < \infty }$ . In this paper, we prove that if E|X ₁|^2+?? < for some ?? ?? (0, 1], and $\sum\limits_{j = n + 1}^\infty {Cov\left( {X_1 ,X_j } \right) = O\left( {n^{ - \alpha } } \right)}$ for some ?? > 1, then for any b > ?1/2 $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\varepsilon \searrow 0} \varepsilon ^{2b + 1} \sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {\frac{{(\log \log n)^{b - 1/2} }} {{n^{3/2} \log n}}} E\left\{ {M_n - \sigma \varepsilon \sqrt {2n\log \log n} } \right\}_ + = \frac{{2^{ - 1/2 - b} E\left| N \right|^{2(b + 1)} }} {{(b + 1)(2b + 1)}}\sum\limits_{k = 0}^\infty {\frac{{( - 1)^k }} {{(2k + 1)^{2(b + 1)} }}}$$ and $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\varepsilon \nearrow \infty } \varepsilon ^{ - 2(b + 1)} \sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {\frac{{(\log \log n)^b }} {{n^{3/2} \log n}}E\left\{ {\sigma \varepsilon \sqrt {\frac{{\pi ^2 n}} {{8\log \log n}}} - M_n } \right\}} _ + = \frac{{\Gamma (b + 1/2)}} {{\sqrt 2 (b + 1)}}\sum\limits_{k = 0}^\infty {\frac{{( - 1)^k }} {{(2k + 1)^{2b + 2} }}} ,$$ where x ₊ = max{x, 0}, N is a standard normal random variable, and ??(·) is a Gamma function.     

On the derivative of the Minkowski question mark function ?(<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis>)

Let x?=?[0; a ₁ , a ₂ , …] be the regular continued fraction expansion of an irrational number x ∈ [0, 1]. For the derivative of the Minkowski function ?(x) we prove that ?′(x)?=?+∞, provided that \( \mathop {{\lim \sup }}\limits_{t \to \infty } \frac{{{a_1} + \cdots + {a_t}}}{t} < {\kappa_1} = \frac{{2\log {\lambda_1}}}{{\log 2}} = {1.388^{+} } \), and ?′(x)?=?0, provided that \( \mathop {{\lim \inf }}\limits_{t \to \infty } \frac{{{a_1} + \cdots + {a_t}}}{t} > {\kappa_2} = \frac{{4{L_5} - 5{L_4}}}{{{L_5} - {L_4}}} = {4.401^{+} } \), where \( {L_j} = \log \left( {\frac{{j + \sqrt {{{j^2} + 4}} }}{2}} \right) - j \cdot \frac{{\log 2}}{2} \). Constants κ₁, κ₂ are the best possible. It is also shown that ?′(x)?=?+∞ for all x with partial quotients bounded by 4.     

Best approximation and de la Vallée-Poussin sums

For the class C_ε={f∈C_2π: E_n, n≤Z₊} where \(\left\{ {\varepsilon _n } \right\}_{n \in Z_ + } \) is a sequence of numbers tending monotonically to zero, we establish the following precise (in the sense of order) bounds for the error of approximation by de la Vallée-Poussin sums: (1) $$c_1 \sum\nolimits_{j = n}^{2\left( {n + l} \right)} {\frac{{\varepsilon _j }}{{l + j - n + 1}}} \leqslant \mathop {\sup }\limits_{f \in C_\varepsilon } \left\| {f - V_{n, l} \left( f \right)} \right\|_C \leqslant c_2 \sum\nolimits_{j = n}^{2\left( {n + l} \right)} {\frac{{\varepsilon _j }}{{l + j - n + 1}}} \left( {n \in N} \right)$$ , where c₁ and c₂ are constants which do not depend on n orl. This solves the problem posed by S. B. Stechkin at the Conference on Approximation Theory (Bonn, 1976) and permits a unified treatment of many earlier results obtained only for special classes C_ε of (differentiable) functions. The result (1) substantially refines the estimate (see [1]) (2) $$\left\| {V_{n, l} \left( f \right) - f} \right\|_C = O\left( {\log {n \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {n {\left( {l + 1} \right) + 1}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\left( {l + 1} \right) + 1}}} \right) E_n \left[ f \right] \left( {n \to \infty } \right)$$ and includes as particular cases the estimates of approximations by Fejér sums (see [2]) and by Fourier sums (see [3]).

On Certain Integral Operators of Fractional Type

In this paper we study integral operators of the form $$T\,f\left( x \right) = \int {k_1 \left( {x - a_1 y} \right)k_2 \left( {x - a_2 y} \right)...k_m \left( {x - a_m y} \right)f\left( y \right)dy} ,$$ $$k_i \left( y \right) = \sum\limits_{j \in Z} {2^{\frac{{jn}}{{q_i }}} } \varphi _{i,j} \left( {2^j y} \right),\,1 \leqq q_i < \infty ,\frac{1}{{q_1 }} + \frac{1}{{q_2 }} + ... + \frac{1}{{q_m }} = 1 - r,$$ $0 \leqq r < 1$ , and $\varphi _{i,j}$ satisfying suitable regularity conditions. We obtain the boundedness of $T:L^p \left( {R^n } \right) \to T:L^q \left( {R^n } \right)$ for $1 < p < \frac{1}{r}$ and $\frac{1}{q} = \frac{1}{p} - r$ .     

Regularized sums of half-integer powers of a Sturm-Liouville operator

We investigate the question of the regularized sums of part of the eigenvalues z_n (lying along a direction) of a Sturm-Liouville operator. The first regularized sum is $$\sum\nolimits_{n = 1}^\infty {(z_n - n - \frac{{c_1 }}{n} + \frac{2}{\pi } \cdot z_n arctg \frac{1}{{z_n }} - \frac{2}{\pi }) = \frac{{B_2 }}{2} - c_1 \cdot \gamma + \int_1^\infty {\left[ {R(z) - \frac{{l_0 }}{{\sqrt z }} - \frac{{l_1 }}{z} - \frac{{l_2 }}{{z\sqrt z }}} \right]} } \sqrt z dz,$$ where the z_n are eigenvalues lying along the positive semi-axis, z _n ² =λ_n, $$l_0 = \frac{\pi }{2}, l_1 = - \frac{1}{2}, l_2 = - \frac{1}{4}\int_0^\pi {q(x) dx,} c_1 = - \frac{2}{\pi }l_2 ,$$ , B₂ is a Bernoulli number, γ is Euler's constant, and \(R(z)\) is the trace of the resolvent of a Sturm-Liouville operator.     

On a result of Hardy and Littlewood concerning Fourier series

Let f ∈ L ¹( $ \mathbb{T} $ ) and assume that $$ f\left( t \right) \sim \frac{{a_0 }} {2} + \sum\limits_{k = 1}^\infty {\left( {a_k \cos kt + b_k \sin kt} \right)} $$ Hardy and Littlewood [1] proved that the series $ \sum\limits_{k = 1}^\infty {\frac{{a_k }} {k}} $ converges if and only if the improper Riemann integral $$ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{\delta \to 0^ + } \int_\delta ^\pi {\frac{1} {x}} \left\{ {\int_{ - x}^x {f(t)dt} } \right\}dx $$ exists. In this paper we prove a refinement of this result.     

Estimation of the remainder of a cubature formula on a Chebyshev grid

Let C(Q) denote the space of continuous functions f(x, y) in the square Q = [?1, 1] × [?1, 1] with the norm $\begin{gathered} \left\| f \right\| = \max \left| {f(x,y)} \right|, \hfill \\ (x,y) \in Q. \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $ On a Chebyshev grid, a cubature formula of the form $\int\limits_{ - 1}^1 {\int\limits_{ - 1}^1 {\frac{1} {{\sqrt {(1 - x^2 )(1 - y^2 )} }}f(x,y)dxdy = \frac{{\pi ^2 }} {{mn}}\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {\sum\limits_{j = 1}^m {f\left( {\cos \frac{{2i - 1}} {{2n}}\pi ,\cos \frac{{2j - 1}} {{2m}}\pi } \right)} + R_{m,n} (f)} } } $ is considered in some class H(r ₁, r ₂) of functions f ?? C(Q) defined by a generalized shift operator. The remainder R _{m, n} (f) is proved to satisfy the estimate $\mathop {\sup }\limits_{f \in H(r_1 ,r_2 )} \left| {R_{m,n} (f)} \right| = O(n^{ - r_1 + 1} + m^{ - r_2 + 1} ), $ where r ₁, r ₂ > 1; ??^?1 ?? n/m ?? ?? with ?? > 0; and the constant in O(1) depends on ??.     

On Kantorovich-Stieltjes operators

Let ν be a finite Borel measure on[0,1]The Kantorovich-Stieltjes polynomials are de-fined byK_n ν=(n+1)N_(k,n)(nN),where N_(k,n)(x)=x~k(1-x)~(n-k)(x[0,1],k=1,2,…,n)are the basic Bernsteinpolynomials and I_(k,n):=[k/(n+1),(k+1)/(n+1)](k=0,1,…,n;nN).We prove that the maximaloperator of the sequence(K_n)is of weak type and the sequence of polynomials(K_n ν)con-verges a.e.on[0,1]to the Radon-Nikodym derivative of the absolutely continuous part of     

Absolute bounds on optimal cost for a class of set covering problems

We study the class of (m constraint,n variable) set covering problems which have no more thank variables represented in each constraint. Letd denote the maximum column sum in the constraint matrix, letr=[m/d]?1, and letZ _g denote the cost of a greedy heuristic solution. Then we prove $$\begin{gathered} Zg \leqslant 1 + r + m - d - \left[ {mk \cdot MAX\left\{ {\frac{{2r}}{{2n - r - 1}},\ln \frac{n}{{n - r}}} \right\}} \right. \hfill \\ \left. { - kd \cdot MIN\left\{ {\frac{{r(r + 1)}}{{2(n - r)}},n \cdot \ln \frac{{n - 1}}{{n - r - 1}} - 1} \right\}} \right]. \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ This provides the firsta priori nontrivial upper bound discovered on heuristic solution cost (and thus on optimal solution cost) for the set covering problem. An example demonstrates that this bound is attainable, both for a greedy heuristic solution and for the optimal solution. Numerical examples show that this bound is substantially better than existing bounds for many problem instances. An important subclass of these problems occurs when the constraint matrix is a circulant, in which casem=n andk=d=[αη] for some 0<α<1. For this subclass we prove $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } Zg/n \leqslant \frac{{\alpha ^2 }}{2}[1/\alpha ][1/\alpha ].$$

On the difference equationx_{n + 1} = \alpha + \frac{{x_n^p }}{{x_{n - 1}^p }}

We study, firstly, the dynamics of the difference equation $x_{n + 1} = \alpha + \frac{{x_n^p }}{{x_{n - 1}^p }}$ , withp ∈ (0,1) and α∈ [0, ∞). Then, we generalize our results to the (k + 1)th order difference equation $x_{n + 1} = \alpha + \frac{{x_n^p }}{{x_{n - k}^p }}$ ,k = 2, 3,... with positive initial conditions.
