A Review of Results on Axially Symmetric Navier-Stokes Equations,with Addendum by X. Pan and Q. Zhang

In this paper, we give a brief survey of recent results on axially symmetric Navier-Stokes equations (ASNS) in the following categories: regularity criterion, Liouville property for ancient solutions, decay and vanishing of stationary solutions. Some discussions also touch on the full 3 dimensional equations. Two results, closing of the scaling gap for ASNS and vanishing of homogeneous D solutions in 3 dimensional slabs will be described in more detail.In the addendum, two new results in the 3rd category will also be presented, which are generalizations of recently published results by the author and coauthors.     

Symmetric K-Theory Spectra of C*-Categories

We define K-theory groups and symmetric K-theory spectra associated to ₂-graded C ^*-categories and show that the exterior product of K-theory groups can be expressed in terms of the smash product of symmetric spectra.     

Sobolev Space and Dirichlet Space Associated with Symmetric Markov Process on a Local Field

The space ℱ_r,p, which was designed so as to play similar roles to the ordinary Sobolev space W^r,p(ℝⁿ), introduced as a cornerstone for analyzing nonlinear potential theoretic features of the state space with a measure-symmetric transition probability semi-group. The aim of this article is revealing a sufficient condition for the counterpart of the Sobolev space to coincide with domain of some Dirichlet form on a local field and discussing some other features of those counterparts on the non-Archimedean metric space. For example, we will see a sufficient condition for the space ℱ_r,2 to be viewed as domain of some Dirichlet form and microscopic property such as polarity of singleton will be investigated.

Recurrence and Transience Criteria for Symmetric Hunt Processes

In this paper, we will discuss recurrence, transience and other potential theoretic aspects based on symmetric regular Dirichlet space. We will first deal with Dirichlet space with the strong local property and give a recurrence criterion in terms of exhaustion function. This criterion shows that recurrence automatically provides us with an exhaustion function which is usable to verify a Liouville property on subharmonic functions. Secondly, a recurrence criterion and a transience criterion for a Nonlocal Dirichlet space will be presented. Those criteria can be applied to Albeverio–Karwowski"s random walks on p-adic number field. Lastly, we will prove the assertions which cover other potential theoretic aspect of p-adic number field such as Liouville property on harmonic functions.     

On the Extreme-Value Theory for Stationary Diffusions Under Power Normalization

We consider regular positive recurrent diffusion processes on an open interval (l,r) R ¹ with inaccessible end points. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given in terms of the scale functions describing the domains of attraction of the nondegenerate limiting probability laws for the extreme-values under power normalization. Sufficient von Mises-type conditions and formulas for norming constants are also obtained.     

The Bruhat Order on the Involutions of the Symmetric Group

In this paper we study the partially ordered set of the involutions of the symmetric group S _n with the order induced by the Bruhat order of S _n. We prove that this is a graded poset, with rank function given by the average of the number of inversions and the number of excedances, and that it is lexicographically shellable, hence Cohen-Macaulay, and Eulerian.     

Nonlinear Dynamics Equation in p-Adic String Theory

We investigate nonlinear pseudodifferential equations with infinitely many derivatives. These are equations of a new class, and they originally appeared in p-adic string theory. Their investigation is of interest in mathematical physics and its applications, in particular, in string theory and cosmology. We undertake a systematic mathematical investigation of the properties of these equations and prove the main uniqueness theorem for the solution in an algebra of generalized functions. We discuss boundary problems for bounded solutions and prove the existence theorem for spatially homogeneous solutions for odd p. For even p, we prove the absence of a continuous nonnegative solution interpolating between two vacuums and indicate the possible existence of discontinuous solutions. We also consider the multidimensional equation and discuss soliton and q-brane solutions.     

On the p-Length of a Product of Two Schmidt Groups

It is established that a finite p-solvable group presenting the product of two of its Schmidt subgroups has p-length at most 2.     

p-Adic Dynamics and Sullivan's No Wandering Domains Theorem

In this paper we study dynamics on the Fatou set of a rational function . Using a notion of components of the Fatou set defined by Benedetto, we state and prove an analogue of Sullivan's No Wandering Domains Theorem for p-adic rational functions which have no wild recurrent Julia critical points.     

The automorphism group of a split metacyclic 2-group and some groups of crossed homomorphisms

In this paper we find the structure for the automorphism group of a split metacyclic 2-group G. It can be seen as a continuation of the paper (Curran in Arch. Math. 89 (2007), 10–23) and it makes it complete. We propose a different approach to the problem than in the paper (Curran in Arch. Math. 89 (2007), 10–23). Our intention is to show that apart from some cases of 2-groups AutG has a structure similar to that of a direct product of two groups with no common direct factor [which was considered in Bidwell, Curran, and McCaughan (Arch. Math. 86 (2006), 481–489)].      

Existence and iteration of positive solutions for a singular two-point boundary value problem with a <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-Laplacian operator

In the paper, we obtain the existence of symmetric or monotone positive solutions and establish a corresponding iterative scheme for the equation (ϕ _p (u′))′+q(t)f(u) = 0, 0 < t < 1, where ϕ _p (s):= |s| ^p−2 s, p > 1, subject to nonlinear boundary condition. The main tool is the monotone iterative technique. Here, the coefficient q(t) may be singular at t = 0; 1.     

Feynman-Kac Formula for Left Continuous Additive Functionals and Extended Kato Class Measures

The perturbation of the generator of a Borel right process by a signed measure is investigated, using probabilistic and analytic potential theoretical methods. We establish a Feynman-Kac formula associated with measures charging no polar set and belonging to an extended Kato class. A main tool of this approach is the validity of a Khas’minskii Lemma for Stieltjes exponentials of positive left continuous additive functionals.      

A New Construction of Central Relative (p a , p a , p a , 1)-Difference Sets

Semiregular relative difference sets (RDS) in a finite group E which avoid a central subgroup C are equivalent to orthogonal cocycles. For example, every abelian semiregular RDS must arise from a symmetric orthogonal cocycle, and vice versa. Here, we introduce a new construction for central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS which derives from a novel type of orthogonal cocycle, an LP cocycle, defined in terms of a linearised permutation (LP) polynomial and multiplication in a finite presemifield. The construction yields many new non-abelian (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS. We show that the subset of the LP cocycles defined by the identity LP polynomial and multiplication in a commutative semifield determines the known abelian (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS, and give a second new construction using presemifields.We use this cohomological approach to identify equivalence classes of central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS with elementary abelian C and E/C. We show that for p = 2, a 3 and p = 3, a 2, every central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS is equivalent to one arising from an LP cocycle, and list them all by equivalence class. For p = 2, a = 4, we list the 32 distinct equivalence classes which arise from field multiplication. We prove that, for any p, there are at least a equivalence classes of central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS, of which one is abelian and a – 1 are non-abelian.     

On the regular Sylow p-subgroups of Chevalley groups over \mathbb{Z}_{p^m }

We prove that a Sylow p-subgroup of the general linear group of dimension n over the residue ring modulo p ^m is regular for n ² < p and powerful if and only if n = 2 and m = 1. We obtain similar results for the Sylow p-subgroups of normal types over the same ring.     

Transient and Stationary Distributions for the GI/G/k Queue with Lebesgue-Dominated Inter-Arrival Time Distribution

In this paper, the multi-server queue with general service time distribution and Lebesgue-dominated iid inter-arival times is analyzed. This is done by introducing auxiliary variables for the remaining service times and then examining the embedded Markov chain at arrival instants. The concept of piecewise-deterministic Markov processes is applied to model the inter-arrival behaviour. It turns out that the transition probability kernel of the embedded Markov chain at arrival instants has the form of a lower Hessenberg matrix and hence admits an operator–geometric stationary distribution. Thus it is shown that matrix–analytical methods can be extended to provide a modeling tool even for the general multi-server queue.     

Finite p-groups with automorphism of a special form

Research on finite solvable groups with C-closed invariant subgroups has given rise to groups structured as follows. Let p, q₁, q₂, ..., q_m be distinct primes, n_i be the exponent of p modulo q_i, and n be the exponent of p modulo . Then G = Pλ〈x〉, where P is a group and ; Z_i; here, Z_i and P/Z(P) are elementary Abelian groups of respective orders and pⁿ, |x| = r, the element x acts irreducibly on P/Z(P) and on each of the subgroups Z_i, and . We state necessary and sufficient conditions for such groups to exist. __________ Translated from Algebra i Logika, Vol. 45, No. 4, pp. 379–389, July–August, 2006.     

Exact axially symmetric wave solutions of the Yang-Mills equations

We find a class of exact axially symmetric wave solutions of the Yang-Mills equations with SU(2) symmetry. The solutions in this class describe running waves propagating at the speed of light in a vacuum and contain two arbitrary differentiable functions of their phase. We consider properties of field sources that can generate such running waves. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 148, No. 2, pp. 243–248, August, 2006.

The L p -curvature images of convex bodies and L p -projection bodies

Associated with the L _p -curvature image defined by Lutwak, some inequalities for extended mixed p-affine surface areas of convex bodies and the support functions of L _p -projection bodies are established. As a natural extension of a result due to Lutwak, an L _p -type affine isoperimetric inequality, whose special cases are L _p -Busemann-Petty centroid inequality and L _p -affine projection inequality, respectively, is established. Some L _p -mixed volume inequalities involving L _p -projection bodies are also established.
