Axiomatizability of reducts of algebras of relations

In this paper, we prove that any subreduct of the class of representable relation algebras whose similarity type includes intersection, relation composition and converse is a non-finitely axiomatizable quasivariety and that its equational theory is not finitely based. We show the same result for subreducts of the class of representable cylindric algebras of dimension at least three whose similarity types include intersection and cylindrifications. A similar result is proved for subreducts of the class of representable sequential algebras. Received October 7, 1998; accepted in final form September 10, 1999.     

Characterization of types of asymptotic discernibility of families of hypotheses

We give a characterization of the types of asymptotic discernibility of families of hypotheses in the case of hypothetical measures that are not, in general, mutually absolutely continuous. The case when the logarithm of the likelihood ratio admits an asymptotic expansion of the type of an expansion with local asymptotic normality is examined in detail. Examples are studied.Translated fromTeoriya Sluchainykh Protsessov, Vol. 15, pp. 64–71, 1987.     

Isomorphisms of lattices of subalgebras of semirings of continuous nonnegative functions

In this work, lattice isomorphisms of semirings C ⁺(X) of continuous nonnegative functions over an arbitrary topological space X are characterized. It is proved that any isomorphism of lattices of all subalgebras with a unit of semirings C ⁺(X) and C ⁺(Y) is induced by a unique isomorphism of semirings. The same result is also correct for lattices of all subalgebras excepting the case of two-point Tychonovization of spaces.     

Lengths of periods of continued fractions of square roots of integers

Empirical study of the period’s length T of the continued fractions of $\sqrt{Q}$ (for growing integers Q) shows several strange asymptotical results, for instance, $T\leq C\sqrt{Q}\ln{Q}$ . These results show important differences between the statistics of the elements of the continued fractions of random real numbers and of square roots of random integers.     

Construction of normal bases of rings of integral elements of certain fields of algebraic functions

This article is devoted to the construction of normal bases of rings of integral elements of certain fields of algebraic functions. These fields are algebraic extensions of the initial fields, given by appropriate algebraic equations. The extensions are given only by the monodromy group. The device of the matrix Riemann boundary-value problem on a Riemann surface is used.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 42, No. 7, pp. 1004–1007, July, 1990.

Singularities of Solutions of One Class of Equations of Continuum Mechanics

We analyze one class of families of integral equations and describe the dependence of the singularities of solutions of integral equations on the dimensions of the families of kernels of equations. On the basis of these results, we propose procedures for the construction of approximate solutions for a small parameter.

Estimates of stability of characterization of additive types of distributions

An estimate of stability of characterization of distribution types is obtained for the case of additive types. Under some conditions, the estimate has the order ε^1/3L(ε), where L(ε) is a slowly varying function.

Orders of the torsion of points of curves of genus 1

Let K be an algebraic number field of degree n; let be the number of divisor classes of the field K; y: v²=u⁴+au²+B is the Jacobian curve over where C is an integral divisor, q₁, ..., q_N are distinct prime divisors. One proves that there exists an effectively computable constant c=c(n, h(K), N), such that the order m of the torsion of any primitive K-point on is bounded by it: mC.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Construction of a fundamental series of solutions of a pencil of matrices

Solution of spectral problems for a singular polynomial pencil of matrices D () of degree s1 and sizem×n is considered. Two algorithms for constructing polynomials solutions of pencils D () are considered: the first is a modification of an algorithm proposed earlier by one of the authors for determining polynomial solutions of a linear pencil; the second algorithm is based on other ideas and consists of two steps. At the first step a finite sequence of auxiliary pencils is constructed for each of which a basis of polynomial solutions of degree zero is found. At the second step the basis so constructed are rearranged into polynomial solutions of the original polynomial pencil D(). Both algorithms make it possible to find solutions of the original pencil in order of increasing degrees. For constructing a fundamental series of solutions of the pencil D() two new algorithms are proposed which work independently with either of the algorithms mentioned above for constructing polynomial solutions by rearranging them into linearly independent solutions of the pencil.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Emptiness of set of points of lower semicontinuity of Lyapunov exponents

We consider parametric families of differential systems with coefficients that are bounded and continuous on the half-line and uniformly in time continuously depend on a real parameter. For each Lyapunov exponent, we construct a family such that the Lyapunov exponent of its systems treated as a function of the parameter is not a lower semicontinuous function for any value of the parameter.     

Determination of asymptotic solutions of problems of nonlinear theories of thermoviscoelasticity

It is shown that the asymptotic solution of a problem of the nonlinear theory of thermoviscoelasticity, if it exists, can be found directly from the solution of the asymptotic boundary-value problem without completely solving the starting problem.M.

Variant of statistical interpretation of the formation of viscoelastic deformations of polymers

A variant of a statistical probability interpretation of elementary micromechanisms of formation of viscoelastic deformations of polymers is examined with the aid of the concept of dissymmetric media and the dissymmetry coefficient. A new rheological relationship is obtained, a particular case of which is the known equation of a typical linear viscoelastic body. A method is given for determining the relaxation spectrum for different intensity functions figuring in the rheological relationships. The results of the calculation are compared with the experimental data, exemplified by the creep of polyamide P-68.Institute of Polymer Mechanics, Academy of Sciences of the Latvian SSR, Riga.

Method of elastic solutions of problems of thermoviscoelasticity

The quasi-static mixed boundary value problem is considered for a viscoelastic body with time-dependent properties and a singular nondegenerate relaxation kernel. The existence of a time-temperature (or similar) analogy is not assumed. A method of reducing the viscoelastic problem to the solution of a series of uniform elastic problems is proposed and its convergence proved. The method is illustrated with reference to examples of solutions of specific viscoelastic problems.Lomonosov Moscow State University.
