Boundedness properties of the difference equation x n+1=(α+βx n +δx n−2)/(x n−1)

Consider the third-order difference equation x _n+1 = (α+βx _n +δx _n ? 2)/(x _n ? 1) with α ∈ [0,∞) and β,δ ∈ (0,∞). It is shown that this difference equation has unbounded solutions if and only if δ>β.     

Regularity and explicit representation of (0,1,...,m−2,m) interpolation on the zeros of (1−x 2)P n −2/(α,β) (x)

Necessary and sufficient conditions for the regularity andq-regularity of (0,1,...,m–2,m) interpolation on the zeros of (1–x ²)P _n ^–2/(,) (x) (,>–1) in a manageable form are established, whereP _n ^–2/(,) (x) stands for the (n–2)th Jacobi polynomial. Meanwhile, the explicit representation of the fundamental polynomials, when they exist, is given. Moreover, we show that under a mild assumption if the problem of (0,1,...,m–2,m) interpolation has an infinity of solutions then the general form of the solutions isf ₀(x)+C f(x) with an arbitrary constantC.This work is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

This paper deals with orthogonal polynomials for Jacobi-exponential weights (1?x ²) ^ρ e ^?Q(x) on (?1,1) and gives bounds on orthogonal polynomials, zeros, and Christofel functions. In addition, restricted range inequalities are also obtained.     

On the neutrix composition of the distributions x −s ln m |x| and x r

Let F be a distribution and let f be a locally summable function. The distribution F(f) is defined as the neutrix limit of the sequence {F _n (f)}, where F _n (x) = F(x) * δ _n (x) and {δ _n (x)} is a certain sequence of infinitely differentiable functions converging to the Dirac delta-function δ(x). The composition of the distributions x ^?s ln ^m |x| and x ^r is proved to exist and be equal to r ^m x ^?rs ln ^m |x| for r, s, m = 2, 3….

Series ∑F(m)qm,where F(m) is the number of odd classes of binary quadratic forms of determinant −m

Consideration of the analytic continuation of the Eisenstein series of weight 3/2 for the group ₀(4) leads to a new proof of Mordell's formula connecting the values X()= _m=1 F(m)e^im, Im > 0, and (–1/). The behavior of the function () for ₀(4) is examined by the same method.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im. V. A.

On the dispersion law of the form ɛ(p) = ħ 2 p 2/2m + \tilde V(p) − \tilde V(0) for elementary excitations of a nonideal fermi gas in the pair interaction approximation (i ↔ j), V(|x x − x j |)

We give a derivation of the dispersion law ?(p) = ? ² p ²/2m + $\tilde V$ (p) ? $\tilde V$ (0), where $\tilde V$ (p) is the Fourier transform of the pair interaction potential V(r). (The interaction between particles x _x and x _j is V(|x _i ? x _j |).)

On the number of invariant polynomials of the matrix XAX−1+B

Let F be a field. If A is an n×n matrix over F, we denote by i(A) the number of invariant polynomials of A different from 1. We shall prove that if A,B are n×n matrices over F and t ∈ {1,…,n}, then i(A)+i(B)⩽n+t if and only if there exists a nonsingular matrix X over F such that i(XAX⁻¹+B)⩽t, except in a few cases.     

Bounds on the degree of APN polynomials: the case of x ?1?+?g(x)

In this paper we consider APN functions ${f:\mathcal{F}_{2^m}\to \mathcal{F}_{2^m}}$ of the form f(x) = x ^?1 + g(x) where g is any non ${\mathcal{F}_{2}}$ -affine polynomial. We prove a lower bound on the degree of the polynomial g. This bound in particular implies that such a function f is APN on at most a finite number of fields ${\mathcal{F}_{2^m}}$ . Furthermore we prove that when the degree of g is less than 7 such functions are APN only if m ?? 3 where these functions are equivalent to x ³.     

The integral points on elliptic curves y 2 = x 3 + (36n 2 − 9)x − 2(36n 2 − 5)

Let n be a positive odd integer. In this paper, combining some properties of quadratic and quartic diophantine equations with elementary analysis, we prove that if n > 1 and both 6n ² ? 1 and 12n ² + 1 are odd primes, then the general elliptic curve y ² = x ³+(36n ²?9)x?2(36n ²?5) has only the integral point (x, y) = (2, 0). By this result we can get that the above elliptic curve has only the trivial integral point for n = 3, 13, 17 etc. Thus it can be seen that the elliptic curve y ² = x ³ + 27x ? 62 really is an unusual elliptic curve which has large integral points.     

Sections of U(2n)/Sp(s) over S4n−1

We describe the sections of U(2n)/Sp(s) over S⁴ⁿ⁻¹ in terms of the sections of the symplectic Stiefel manifold Sp(n)/Sp(s) and we express the orders of obstructions to sectioning U(2n)/Sp(s) in terms of orders of obstructions to sectioning Sp(n)/Sp(s). In certain cases we give the exact values of these orders.
