On Markov operators preserving polynomials

The paper is concerned with a special class of positive linear operators acting on the space C(K)$C(K)$ of all continuous functions defined on a convex compact subset K   of R^d${\mathbf{R}}^d$, d?1$d?1$, having non-empty interior. Actually, this class consists of all positive linear operators T   on C(K)$C(K)$ which leave invariant the polynomials of degree at most 1 and which, in addition, map polynomials into polynomials of the same degree. Among other things, we discuss the existence of such operators in the special case where K is strictly convex by also characterizing them within the class of positive projections. In particular we show that such operators exist if and only if ∂K   is an ellipsoid. Furthermore, a characterization of balls of R^d${\mathbf{R}}^d$ in terms of a special class of them is furnished. Additional results and illustrative examples are presented as well.     

An infinite-dimensional version of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem

We study the solvability of the equation a(x) = f(x) on a sphere in a Banach space, where a is a closed surjective linear operator and f is an odd a-compact map. We also estimate the topological dimension of the solution set and give applications of the corresponding theorem to some problems in differential equations and other fields of mathematics.Translated from Funktsionalnyi Analiz i Ego Prilozheniya, Vol. 38, No. 4, pp. 1–5, 2004Original Russian Text Copyright © by B.

On the cauchy problem for a class of degenerate differential equations with Lipschitz right-hand side

This note deals with an application of the fixed point theorem for multivalued contraction mappings to the study of degenerate differential equations with Lipschitz right-hand side and with degeneration determined by a closed surjective linear operator.     

Doubly stochastic operators on a finite-dimensional simplex

Generalizing the concept of a quadratic doubly stochastic operator, we introduce the concept of an arbitrary doubly stochastic operator. We give a necessary condition for double stochasticity. Moreover, we prove an ergodic theorem for doubly stochastic operators. Original Russian Text Copyright ? 2009 Shahidi F. A. __________ Tashkent.

Conditional cubic stochastic operator

We introduce the concept of conditional cubic stochastic operator in this study. We show that any conditional cubic stochastic operator has a unique fixed point and such an operator has the property of being regular.     

Nonlinear boundary value problems

In this paper we consider two quasilinear boundary value problems. The first is vector valued and has periodic boundary conditions. The second is scalar valued with nonlinear boundary conditions determined by multivalued maximal monotone maps. Using the theory of maximal monotone operators for reflexive Banach spaces and the Leray-Schauder principle we establish the existence of solutions for both problems.     

Zero product preserving maps on

The main result of the paper characterizes continuous bilinear maps from C¹[0,1]×C¹[0,1] into a Banach space X with the property that (f,g)=0 whenever fg=0. This is applied to the study of zero product preserving operators on C¹[0,1], and operators on C¹[0,1] satisfying a version of the condition of the locality of an operator.     

Doubly stochastic quadratic operators and Birkhoff’s problem

In the present we introduce a concept of doubly stochastic quadratic operator. We study necessary and sufficient conditions for doubly stochasticity of operator. Moreover, we study analogue of Birkhoff’s theorem for the class of doubly stochastic operators.     

Analysis of a 6-point binary subdivision scheme

In this paper, a linear 6-point binary approximating subdivision scheme with support [−6, 5] is fully investigated. It is shown that the scheme is simple and has elegant properties. We prove that the scheme can have high order continuity, polynomial reproduction and convexity preserving properties simultaneously. Furthermore, we explore the trade-offs among these properties. Examples are given to demonstrate the efficiency and flexibility of the scheme.     

Disjointness Preserving Operators on Complex Riesz Spaces

It is proven that ifE and F are complex Riesz spaces and ifT is an order bounded disjointness preserving operator fromE intoF , then This fundamental result of M. Meyer is obtained by elementary means using as the main tool the functional calculus derived from the Freudenthal spectral theorem. It is also shown that ifT is an order bounded disjointness preserving operator, a formula of the form holds. It implies a polar decomposition of an order bounded disjointness preserving operator as the product of a Riesz homomorphism and an orthomorphism. Results of P. Meyer-Nieberg in this regard are generalized.

Completely bounded disjointness preserving operators between Fourier algebras

In this paper, we characterize surjective completely bounded disjointness preserving linear operators on Fourier algebras of locally compact amenable groups. We show that such operators are given by weighted homomorphisms induced by piecewise affine proper maps.
