The Connection Between the Metric and Generalized Projection Operators in Banach Spaces

In this paper we study the connection between the metric projection operator PK ： B →K, where B is a reflexive Banach space with dual space B^＊ and K is a non-empty closed convex subset of B, and the generalized projection operators ∏K ： B → K and πK ： B^＊ → K. We also present some results in non-reflexive Banach spaces.     

Sums of lengtht in Abelian groups

LetG be an Abelian group written additively,B a finite subset ofG, and lett be a positive integer. Fort≦|B|, letB _t denote the set of sums oft distinct elements overB. Furthermore, letK be a subgroup ofG and let σ denote the canonical homomorphism σ:G→G/K. WriteB _t (modB _t) forB _tσ and writeB _t (modK) forBσ. The following addition theorem in groups is proved. LetG be an Abelian group with no 2-torsion and letB a be finite subset ofG. Ift is a positive integer such thatt<|B| then |B _t (modK)|≧|B (modK)| for any finite subgroupK ofG.     

On linear versions of some addition theorems

Let K ? L be a field extension. Given K-subspaces A, B of L, we study the subspace ?AB? spanned by the product set AB = {ab∣ a ∈ A, b ∈ B}. We obtain some lower bounds on dim _K ?AB? and dim _K ?B ⁿ ? in terms of dim _K A, dim _K B and n. This is achieved by establishing linear versions of constructions and results in additive number theory mainly due to Kemperman and Olson.     

On the Metric Projection Operator and Its Applications to Solving Variational Inequalities in Banach Spaces

In this paper, we investigate the characteristics of the metric projection operator P _K : B → K, where B is a Banach space with dual space B?, and K is a nonempty closed convex subset of B. Then we apply its properties to study the existence of solutions of variational inequalities in uniformly convex and uniformly smooth Banach spaces.     

On the 3BD‐closed set B3({4,5,6})

Let B₃(K) = {v:? an S(3,K,v)}. For K = {4} or {4,6}, B₃(K) has been determined by Hanani, and for K = {4, 5} by a previous paper of the author. In this paper, we investigate the case of K = {4,5,6}. It is easy to see that if v ∈ B₃ ({4, 5, 6}), then v ≡ 0, 1, 2 (mod 4). It is known that B₃{4, 6}) = {v > 0: v ≡ 0 (mod 2)} ? B₃({4,5,6}) by Hanani and that B₃({4, 5}) = {v > 0: v ≡ 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10 (mod 12) and v ≠ 13} ? B₃({4, 5, 6}). We shall focus on the case of v ≡ 9 (mod 12). It is proved that B₃({4,5,6}) = {v > 0: v ≡ 0, 1, 2 (mod 4) and v ≠ 9, 13}. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Affine Hecke algebras and the Schubert calculus

Using a combinatorial approach that avoids geometry, this paper studies the structure of K_T(G/B), the T-equivariant K-theory of the generalized flag variety G/B. This ring has a natural basis (the double Grothendieck polynomials), where is the structure sheaf of the Schubert variety X_w. For rank two cases we compute the corresponding structure constants of the ring K_T(G/B) and, based on this data, make a positivity conjecture for general G which generalizes the theorems of M. Brion (for K(G/B)) and W. Graham (for H_T^*(G/B)). Let [X^λ]K_T(G/B) be the class of the homogeneous line bundle on G/B corresponding to the character of T indexed by λ. For general G we prove “Pieri–Chevalley formulas” for the products , , , and , where λ is dominant. By using the Chern character and comparing lowest degree terms the products which are computed in this paper also give results for the Grothendieck polynomials, double Schubert polynomials, and ordinary Schubert polynomials in, respectively K(G/B), H_T^*(G/B) and H^*(G/B).     

Défaut d'exactitude des modéles¶de Néron toriques sur un corps local

Let R be a complete discrete valuation ring with mixed characteristic. Denote by K its field of fractions and by k its residue field. Let 0 →A ^K →B ^K →C ^K → 0 be an exact sequence of abelian varieties over K and consider the corresponding complex of Nérons models 0 →A→B→C→ 0, over R. We assume that the identity component B _k ⁰ of the special fibre B _k of B is a torus and we study the defect of exactmess at B in this last sequence.

ComplexK-theory ofBSL3(Z)

ComplexK-theory ofBSL₃(Z) andBSt₃(Z) are computed. We first study a Brown-Peterson (BP) version of Soulé's arguments. Then we consider complexK-theory by using a Conner-Floyd type theorem.     

Bichromaticity of bipartite graphs

Let B be a bipartite graph with edge set E and vertex bipartition M, N. The bichromaticity β(B) is defined as the maximum number β such that a complete bipartite graph on β vertices is obtainable from B by a sequence of identifications of vertices of M or vertices of N. Let μ = max{∣M∣, ∣N∣}. Harary, Hsu, and Miller proved that β(B) ≥ μ + 1 and that β(T) = μ + 1 for T an arbitrary tree. We prove that β(B) ≤ μ + ∣E∣/μ yielding a simpler proof that β(T) = μ + 1. We also characterize graphs for which K_{μ, 2} is obtainable by such identifications. For Q_K. the graph of the K-dimensional cube, we obtain the inequality 2^K?1 + 2 ≤ β(Q_K) ≤ 2^K?1 + K, the upper bound attainable iff K is a power of 2.     

On Stable Equivalence of Tensor Products of Algebras

The paper investigates the following problem. Let bimodules N, M yield a stable equivalence of Morita type between self-injective K-algebras A and E. Further, let bimodules S, T yield a stable equivalence of Morita type between self-injective K-algebras B and F. Then we want to know whether the functor M ? _A  ? ? _B S: mod(A ? _K B ^op ) → mod(E ? _K F ^op ) induces a stable equivalence between A ? _K B ^op and E ? _K F ^op . There is given a reduction of this problem to some smaller subcategories for self-injective algebras. Moreover, new invariants of stable equivalences of Morita type are constructed in a general case of arbitrary finite-dimensional algebras over a field.     

Specht property for the 2-graded identities of the Jordan algebra of a bilinear form

Let K be a field of characteristic zero and V a vector space of dimension m>1 with a nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form f:V×V→K. The Jordan algebra B_m = K⊕V of the form f is a ?₂-graded algebra with this decomposition. We prove that the ideal of all the ?₂-graded identities of B_m satisfies the Specht property and we compute the ?₂-graded cocharacter sequence of B_m.     

The Translative Kissing Number of Cartesian Product of two Convex Bodies, one of which is Two-Dimensional

This article discusses the relation between the translative kissing numbers of convex bodies K ₁, K ₂ and K ₁ K ₂. As an application of the main theorem, we find that the translative kissing number of B Q, where B is a 24-dimensional ball and Q is a two-dimensional non-parallelogram convex domain, is 1375926.     

The Algebra of Flows in Graphs

We define a contravariant functorKfrom the category of finite graphs and graph morphisms to the category of finitely generated graded abelian groups and homomorphisms. For a graphX, an abelian groupB, and a nonnegative integerj, an element of Hom(K^j(X), B) is a coherent family ofB-valued flows on the set of all graphs obtained by contracting some (j − 1)-set of edges ofX; in particular, Hom(K¹(X), ) is the familiar (real) “cycle-space” ofX. We show thatK ^· (X) is torsion-free and that its Poincaré polynomial is the specializationt^{n − k}T_X(1/t, 1 + t) of the Tutte polynomial ofX(hereXhasnvertices andkcomponents). Functoriality ofK ^· induces a functorial coalgebra structure onK ^· (X); dualizing, for any ringBwe obtain a functorialB-algebra structure on Hom(K ^· (X), B). WhenBis commutative we present this algebra as a quotient of a divided power algebra, leading to some interesting inequalities on the coefficients of the above Poincaré polynomial. We also provide a formula for the theta function of the lattice of integer-valued flows inX, and conclude with 10 open problems.     

Restrictions of Irreducible Representations of Classical Algebraic Groups to Root A 1-Subgroups

Abstract

Restrictions of irreducible representations of classical algebraic groups to root A ₁-subgroups, i.e., subgroups of type A ₁ generated by root subgroups associated with two opposite roots, are studied. Composition factors of such restrictions are found in the following cases: for groups of types A _n with n > 2 and D _n , for groups of type B _n , n > 2, and long root subgroups, for groups of type C _n , n > 2, and short root subgroups, and for p-restricted representations of A ₂(K), C ₂(K) (recall that B ₂(K) ? C ₂(K)), and of B _n (K), n > 2, and short root subgroups. Here we assume that p > 2 for G = B _n (K) or C _n (K).     

The Derived Picard Group is a Locally Algebraic Group

Let A be a finite-dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field K. The derived Picard group DPic _K (A) is the group of two-sided tilting complexes over A modulo isomorphism. We prove that DPic _K (A) is a locally algebraic group, and its identity component is Out⁰ _K (A). If B is a derived Morita equivalent algebra then DPic _K (A)DPic _K (B) as locally algebraic groups. Our results extend, and are based on, work of Huisgen-Zimmermann, Saorín and Rouquier.     

A small generating set for the 3‐BD closed set of block sizes ≥ 6

Let v, k be positive integers and k ≥ 3, then K_k = : {v: v ≥ k} is a 3‐BD closed set. Two finite generating sets of 3‐BD closed sets K₄ and K₅ are obtained by H. Hanani [5] and Qiurong Wu [12] respectively. In this article we show that if v ≥ 6, then v ∈ B₃(K,1), where K = {6,7,…,41,45,46,47,51,52,53,83,84}\{22,26}; that is, we show that K is a generating set for K₆. Finally we show that v ∈ B₃(6,20) for all v ∈ K\{35,39,40,45}. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Combin Designs 16: 128–136, 2008

Weak Hausdorff Gaps and the 𝔭 ≤ t Problem

We find topological characterizations of the pseudointersection number ?? and the tower number t of the real line and we show that ?? < t iff there exists a compact separable T₂ space X of π-weight < ?? that can be covered by < t nowhere dense sets iff there exists a weak Hausdorff gap of size K < t, i. e., a pair ({A : i ≠ k}, {B_J : j ε K}) C [W]^W X [U]W such that A = {A_i : i ε K} is a decreasing tower, B = {B_j : j ε K) is a family of pseudointersections of A, and there is no pseudointersection S of A meeting each member of B in an infinite set.

Let A be a central simple algebra over its center F. Define CK₁ A = Coker(K₁ F → K₁ A). We prove that if A and B are F-central simple algebras of coprime degrees, then CK₁(A? _F B) = CK₁ A × CK₁ B.
