Conversely, if for some p, , then the series in * converges.     

Typical <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Superscript>-Dimensions of Measures

For a probability measure μ on a subset of , the lower and upper L^q-dimensions of order are defined by We study the typical behaviour (in the sense of Baire’s category) of the L^q-dimensions and . We prove that a typical measure μ is as irregular as possible: for all q ≥ 1, the lower L^q-dimension attains the smallest possible value and the upper L^q-dimension attains the largest possible value.     

Embedding metric spaces into normed spaces and estimates of metric capacity

Let be an arbitrary real normed space of finite dimension d ≥ 2. We define the metric capacity of as the maximal such that every m-point metric space is isometric to some subset of (with metric induced by ). We obtain that the metric capacity of lies in the range from 3 to , where the lower bound is sharp for all d, and the upper bound is shown to be sharp for d ∈ {2, 3}. Thus, the unknown sharp upper bound is asymptotically linear, since it lies in the range from d + 2 to . Research supported by the German Research Foundation, Project AV 85/1-1.     

Arithmetic mean of differences of Dedekind sums

Recently, Girstmair and Schoissengeier studied the asymptotic behavior of the arithmetic mean of Dedekind sums , as N → ∞. In this paper we consider the arithmetic mean of weighted differences of Dedekind sums in the form , where is a continuous function with , runs over , the set of Farey fractions of order Q in the unit interval [0,1] and are consecutive elements of . We show that the limit lim _Q→∞ A _h (Q) exists and is independent of h.     

Smooth Universal Taylor Series

Let be a simply connected domain in , such that is connected. If g is holomorphic in Ω and every derivative of g extends continuously on , then we write g ∈ A^∞ (Ω). For g ∈ A^∞ (Ω) and we denote . We prove the existence of a function f ∈ A^∞(Ω), such that the following hold:

Unlösbarkeit der Gleichung $\alpha x^n + \beta y^n = z^n$ und Gleichverteilung von $\root n \of{\alpha x^n + \beta y^n}$

We show that the unsolvability of the Diophantine equation is equivalent to a good uniform distribution of the set . The proof depends on the asymptotic evaluation of the Gauss sum .     

Tameness of Pseudovariety Joins Involving ${\sf R}$

In this paper, we establish several decidability results for pseudovariety joins of the form , where is a subpseudovariety of or the pseudovariety . Here, (resp. ) denotes the pseudovariety of all -trivial (resp. -trivial) semigroups. In particular, we show that the pseudovariety is (completely) κ-tame when is a subpseudovariety of with decidable κ-word problem and is (completely) κ-tame. Moreover, if is a κ-tame pseudovariety which satisfies the pseudoidentity x₁ ⋯ x_ry^ω+1zt^ω = x₁ ⋯ x_ryzt^ω, then we prove that is also κ-tame. In particular the joins , , , and are decidable.

Moments of Brownian Motions on Lie Groups

Let (B_t)_{t ≥ 0} be a Brownian motion on with the corresponding Gaussian convolution semigroup (μ_t)_{t ≥ 0} and generator L. We show that algebraic relations between L and the generators of the matrix semigroups lead to for t → s, k ≥ 1, and all coordinates i,j. These relations will form the basis for a martingale characterization of (B_t)_{t ≥ 0} in terms of generalized heat polynomials. This characterization generalizes a corresponding result for the Brownian motion on in terms of Hermite polynomials due to J. Wesolowski and may be regarded as a variant of the Lévy characterization without continuity assumptions.     

Inequalities for irregular Gabor frames

In [C.K. Chui and X.L. Shi, Inequalities of Littlewood-Paley type for frames and wavelets, SIAM J. Math. Anal., 24 (1993), 263–277], the authors proved that if is a Gabor frame for with frame bounds A and B, then the following two inequalities hold: and . In this paper, we show that similar inequalities hold for multi-generated irregular Gabor frames of the form , where Δ _k and Λ _k are arbitrary sequences of points in and , 1 ≤ k ≤ r.

Punishing Factors for Finitely Connected Domains

Let Ω and Π be two finitely connected hyperbolic domains in the complex plane and let R(z, Ω) denote the hyperbolic radius of Ω at z and R(w, Π) the hyperbolic radius of Π at w. We consider functions f that are analytic in Ω and such that all values f(z) lie in the domain Π. This set of analytic functions is denoted by A(Ω, Π). We prove among other things that the quantities are finite for all if and only if ∂Ω and ∂Π do not contain isolated points.

Topological dimensions and multifractal Rényi dimensions of Polish spaces: a multifractal Szpilrajn type theorem

In this paper we consider the relationship between the topological dimension and the lower and upper q-Rényi dimensions and of a Polish space X for q ∈ [1, ∞]. Let and denote the Hausdorff dimension and the packing dimension, respectively. We prove that for all analytic metric spaces X (whose upper box dimension is finite) and all q ∈ (1, ∞); of course, trivially, for all q ∈ [1, ∞]. As a corollary to this we obtain the following result relating the topological dimension and the lower and upper q-Rényi dimensions: for all Polish spaces X and all q ∈ [1, ∞]; in (1) and (2) we have used the following notation, namely, for two metric spaces X and Y, we write X ∼ Y if and only if X is homeomorphic to Y. Equality (1) has recently been proved for q = ∞ by Myjak et al. Author’s address: Department of Mathematics, University of St. Andrews, St. Andrews, Fife KY16 9SS, Scotland     

Higher-order energy expansions and spike locations

Associated with (I) is the energy functional defined by where . Ni and Takagi ([29, 30]) proved that for a single boundary spike solution , the following asymptotic expansion holds: where c ₁ > 0 is a generic constant, is the unique local maximum point of and is the boundary mean curvature function at . In this paper, we obtain a higher-order expansion of where c ₂, c ₃ are generic constants and is the scalar curvature at . In particular c ₃ > 0.

Hypersurfaces and Codazzi tensors

In this paper we deal with the following problem. Let (M ⁿ ,〈,〉) be an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold and an isometric immersion. Find all Riemannian metrics on M ⁿ that can be realized isometrically as immersed hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space . More precisely, given another Riemannian metric on M ⁿ , find necessary and sufficient conditions such that the Riemannian manifold admits an isometric immersion into the Euclidean space . If such an isometric immersion exists, how can one describe in terms of f?

Regularity and relaxed problems of minimizing biharmonic maps into spheres

For and , we show that any minimizing biharmonic map from to S^k is smooth off a closed set whose Hausdorff dimension is at most n-5. When n = 5 and k = 4, for a parameter we introduce a -relaxed energy of the Hessian energy for maps in so that each minimizer of is also a biharmonic map. We also establish the existence and partial regularity of a minimizer of for .Received: 5 April 2004, Accepted: 19 October 2004, Published online: 10 December 2004     

Covering and packing in ${\Bbb Z}^n$ and ${\Bbb R}^n$, (I)

Given a finite subset of an additive group such as or , we are interested in efficient covering of by translates of , and efficient packing of translates of in . A set provides a covering if the translates with cover (i.e., their union is ), and the covering will be efficient if has small density in . On the other hand, a set will provide a packing if the translated sets with are mutually disjoint, and the packing is efficient if has large density. In the present part (I) we will derive some facts on these concepts when , and give estimates for the minimal covering densities and maximal packing densities of finite sets . In part (II) we will again deal with , and study the behaviour of such densities under linear transformations. In part (III) we will turn to .

Resonance Free Domains for Non Globally Analytic Potentials

We study the resonances of the semiclassical Schr?dinger operator near a non-trapping energy level in the case when the potential V is not necessarily analytic on all of but only outside some compact set. Then we prove that for some and for any C > 0, P admits no resonance in the domain if V is , and if V is Gevrey with index s. Here does not depend on h and the results are uniform with respect to h > 0 small enough. Submitted 05/02/02, accepted 06/05/02 An erratum to this article is available at .
