1. T can be extended to be a bounded operator on L²(γ);
2. there exists a function ?₁ ∈H ^∞(S _ω ⁰ ) such that ?′₁(z)=?(z)+?(-z), ?z∈S _ω ⁰ ?z∈S _w ⁰ .

Über Deformationen von analytischen Abbildungskeimen

The notion of deformations of germs of k-analytic mappings generalizes the one of deformations of germs of k-analytic spaces. Using algebraic terms, we prove:

1. The morphism f: A→B of analytic algebras is rigid, iff it is infinitesimally rigid. Moreover, this is equivalent to Ex_A (B,B)=0. This theorem generalizes a result of SCHUSTER [11].
2. Let A be a regular analytic algebra. Then f is rigid iff there exists a rigid analytic algebra B_o such that f is equivalent to the canonic injection A→A?B_o.
3. If f is “almost everywhere” rigid or smooth, then the injection Ext _B ^l (Ω_B|A, Bⁿ)→Ex_A(B, Bⁿ) is an isomorphism.

     

Basis of graded identities of the superalgebra M 1,2(F)

Denote by Mat _k,l (F) the algebraM _n (F) of matrices of order n = k + l with the grading (Mat _k,l ⁰ (F),Mat _k,l ¹ (F)), where Mat _k,l ⁰ (F) admits the basis $$ \{ e_{ij} ,i \leqslant k,j \leqslant k\} \cup \{ e_{ij} ,i > k,j > k\} $$ and Mat _k,l ¹ (F) admits the basis $$ \{ e_{ij} ,i \leqslant k,j > k\} \cup \{ e_{ij} ,i > k,j \geqslant k\} . $$ . Denote byM _k,l (F) the Grassmann envelope of the superalgebra Mat _k,l (F). In the paper, bases of the graded identities of the superalgebras Mat_1,2(F) and M _1,2(F) are described.     

A generalization of the katona theorem for crosst-intersecting families

LetX be ann-element set and letA and? be families of subsets ofX. We say thatA and? are crosst-intersecting if |A ∩ B| ≥ t holds for all A ∈A and for allB ∈ ?. Suppose thatA and ? are crosst-intersecting. This paper first proves a crosst-intersecting version of Harper's Theorem:

1. There are two crosst-intersecting Hamming spheresA ₀,? ₀ with centerX such that |A| ≤ |A ₀| and|?| ≤ |? ₀| hold.
2. Suppose thatt ≥ 2 and that the pair of integers (|A) is maximal with respect to direct product ordering among pairs of crosst-intersecting families. Then,A and? are Hamming spheres with centerX.

Using these claims, the following conjecture of Frankl is proven:

1. Ifn + t = 2k ? 1 then |A| |?| ≤ max \(\left\{ {\left( {K_k^n + \left( {_{k - 1}^{n - 1} } \right)} \right)^2 ,K_k^n K_{k - 1}^n } \right\}\) holds, whereK _l ⁿ is defined as \(\left( {_n^n } \right)\left( {_{n - 1}^n } \right) + \cdots + \left( {_l^n } \right).\)
2. Ifn + t = 2k then |A| |? ≤ (K _k ⁿ )² holds.

The extremal configurations are also determined.

Scalar-type spectral operators and holomorphic semigroups

We show that a linear operator (possibly unbounded), A, on a reflexive Banach space, X, is a scalar-type spectral operator, with non-negative spectrum, if and only if the following conditions hold.

1. A generates a uniformly bounded holomorphic semigroup {e?^zA}_Re(z)≥0.
2. If \(F_N (s) \equiv \int_{ - N}^N {\tfrac{{\sin (sr)}}{r}} e^{irA} dr\) , then {‖F_N‖} _N=1 ^∞ is uniformly bounded on [0,∞) and, for all x in X, the sequence {F_N(s)x} _N=1 ^∞ converges pointwise on [0, ∞) to a vector-valued function of bounded variation.

The projection-valued measure, E, for A, may be constructed from the holomorphic semigroup {e^?zA}_Re(z)≥0 generated by A, as follows. $$\frac{1}{2}(E\{ s\} )x + (E[0,s)) x = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{N \to \infty } \int_{ - N}^N {\frac{{\sin (sr)}}{r}} e^{irA} x\frac{{dr}}{\pi }$$ for any x in X.     

ON possible Turán densities

The Turán density π(F) of a family F of k-graphs is the limit as n → ∞ of the maximum edge density of an F-free k-graph on n vertices. Let Π _∞ ^(k) consist of all possible Turán densities and let Π _fin ^(k) ? Π _∞ ^(k) be the set of Turán densities of finite k-graph families. Here we prove that Π _fin ^(k) contains every density obtained from an arbitrary finite construction by optimally blowing it up and using recursion inside the specified set of parts. As an application, we show that Π _fin ^(k) contains an irrational number for each k ≥ 3. Also, we show that Π _∞ ^(k) has cardinality of the continuum. In particular, Π _∞ ^(k) ≠ Π _fin ^(k) .     

Strong capacity-estimates for “fractional” norms

It is proved that for all fractionall the integral \(\int\limits_0^\infty {(p,\ell ) - cap(M_t )} dt^p\) is majorized by the P-th power norm of the functionu in the space ? _p ^l (Rⁿ) (here M_t={x∶¦u(x)¦?t} and (p,l)-cap(e) is the (p,l)-capacity of the compactum e?Rⁿ). Similar results are obtained for the spaces W _p ^l (Rⁿ) and the spaces of M. Riesz and Bessel potentials. One considers consequences regarding imbedding theorems of “fractional” spaces in ?_q(dμ), whereμ is a nonnegative measure in Rⁿ. One considers specially the case p=1.     

Some results on the nonstationary ideal

The strength of precipitousness, presaturatedness and saturatedness of NS_κ and NS _κ ^λ is studied. In particular, it is shown that:

1. The exact strength of “ $NS_{\mu ^ + }^\lambda $ for a regularμ > max(λ, ?₁)” is a (ω,μ)-repeat point.
2. The exact strength of “NS_κ is presaturated over inaccessible κ” is an up-repeat point.
3. “NS_κ is saturated over inaccessible κ” implies an inner model with ?αo(α) =α ⁺⁺.

     

Dirichlet polyhedra for dihedral groups acting on complex hyperbolic space

We consider groups Γ generated by inversions in a pair of asymptotic complex hyperplanes in complex hyperbolic spaceH _? ⁿ . We show that there exists a Γ-invariant real hypersurfaceF ?H _? ⁿ such that the Dirichlet fundamental polyhedron for Γ centered at z₀ has two sides (resp. infinitely many sides) if and only ifz ₀ ∈F (resp.z ₀ ?F). The Dirichlet regions are determined explicitly in terms of coordinates on Γ-invariant horospheres and the geometry ofH _? ⁿ is developed in terms of these horospherical coordinates.     

Extension of functions from Sobolev spaces

By definition, the domain Ω ??ⁿ belongs to the class EW _p ^l if there exists a continuous linear extension operator . An example is given of a domain Ω ??² with compact closure and Jordan boundary, having the following properties: (1) The curve ?Ω is not a quasicircle, has finite length and is Lipschitz in a neighborhood of any of its points except one. (2) Ω ε EW _p ¹ for p<2. and Ω ? EW _p ¹ for p?2. (3) for p>2 and for p?2.     

On the number of non-isomorphic subgraphs

Let $\mathcal{K}$ be the family of graphs on ω₁ without cliques or independent subsets of sizew ₁. We prove that

2. the following proposition holds in L: (*)there is a Gε $\mathcal{K}$ such that for each partition (A, B) of ω₁ either G?G[A] orG?G[B],
3. the failure of (*) is consistent with ZFC.

Discretization and best approximation in Besov spaces

In this paper we prove a theorem about existence of best approximation in a class of spaces involving Besov spaces, via a discretization technique. It is a consequence of this theorem that rational functions and exponencial sums are proximinal subsets of B _∞,q ^a (π). It is also proved the proximinality of R _m ⁿ [a, b] in B _p,q ^a (π) for arbitrary p,q and a.     

A short note on the Frobenius norm of the commutator

This note mainly aims to improve the inequality, proposed by Böttcher and Wenzel, giving the upper bound of the Frobenius norm of the commutator of two particular matrices in ? ^n×n . We first propose a new upper bound on basis of the Böttcher and Wenzel’s inequality. Motivated by the method used, the inequality ‖XY ? XY‖ _F ² ≤ 2‖X‖ _F ² ‖Y‖ _F ² is finally improved into $$ \left\| {XY - YX} \right\|_F^2 \leqslant 2\left\| X \right\|_F^2 \left\| Y \right\|_F^2 - 2[tr(X^T Y)]^2 . $$ . In addition, a further improvement is made.     

Uniform stability of the inverse Sturm-Liouville problem with respect to the spectral function in the scale of Sobolev spaces

We consider the inverse problem of recovering the potential for the Sturm-Liouville operator Ly = ?y″ + q(x)y on the interval [0, π] from the spectrum of the Dirichlet problem and norming constants (from the spectral function). For a fixed θ ≥ 0, with this problem we associate a map F: W ₂ ^θ → l _D ^θ , F(σ) = {s _k } ₁ ^∞ , where W ₂ ^θ = W ₂ ^θ [0, π] is the Sobolev space, σ = ∫ q is a primitive of the potential q ∈ W ₂ ^{θ ? 1} , and l _D ^θ is a specially constructed finite-dimensional extension of the weighted space l ₂ ^θ ; this extension contains the regularized spectral data s = {s _k } ₁ ^∞ for the problem of recovering the potential from the spectral function. The main result consists in proving both lower and upper uniform estimates for the norm of the difference ‖σ ? σ ₁‖ _θ in terms of the l _D ^θ norm of the difference of the regularized spectral data ‖s ? s₁‖ _θ . The result is new even for the classical case q ∈ L ₂, which corresponds to the case θ = 1.     

Normalizers,Centralizers and Action Representability in Semi-Abelian Categories

We introduce the notion of normalizer as motivated by the classical notion in the category of groups. We show for a semi-abelian category ? that the following conditions are equivalent:

1. ? is action representable and normalizers exist in ?;
2. the category Mono(?) of monomorphisms in ? is action representable;
3. the category ?² of morphisms in ? is action representable;
4. for each category \(\mathbb {D}\) with a finite number of morphisms the category \({\mathbb {C}} ^{\mathbb {D}}\) is action representable.

Moreover, when in addition ? is locally well-presentable, we show that these conditions are further equivalent to:

1. ? satisfies the amalgamation property for protosplit normal monomorphism and ? satisfies the axiom of normality of unions;
2. for each small category \(\mathbb {D}\) , the category \({\mathbb {C}} ^{\mathbb {D}}\) is action representable.

We also show that if ? is homological, action accessible, and normalizers exist in ?, then ? is fiberwise algebraically cartesian closed.
