New applications of Besov-type and Triebel-Lizorkin-type spaces

In this paper, the authors prove that Besov-Morrey spaces are proper subspaces of Besov-type spaces and that Triebel-Lizorkin-Morrey spaces are special cases of Triebel-Lizorkin-type spaces . The authors also establish an equivalent characterization of when τ∈[0,1/p). These Besov-type spaces and Triebel-Lizorkin-type spaces were recently introduced to connect Besov spaces and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces with Q spaces. Moreover, for the spaces and , the authors investigate their trace properties and the boundedness of the pseudo-differential operators with homogeneous symbols in these spaces, which generalize the corresponding classical results of Jawerth and Grafakos-Torres by taking τ=0.

Quasi-convex density and determining subgroups of compact abelian groups

For an abelian topological group G, let denote the dual group of all continuous characters endowed with the compact open topology. Given a closed subset X of an infinite compact abelian group G such that w(X)<w(G), and an open neighborhood U of 0 in T, we show that . (Here, w(G) denotes the weight of G.) A subgroup D of G determines G if the map defined by r(χ)=χ?D for , is an isomorphism between and . We prove that

Decompositions of Besov-Hausdorff and Triebel-Lizorkin-Hausdorff spaces and their applications

Let p∈(1,∞), q∈[1,∞), s∈R and . In this paper, the authors establish the φ-transform characterizations of Besov-Hausdorff spaces and Triebel-Lizorkin-Hausdorff spaces (q>1); as applications, the authors then establish their embedding properties (which on is also sharp), smooth atomic and molecular decomposition characterizations for suitable τ. Moreover, using their atomic and molecular decomposition characterizations, the authors investigate the trace properties and the boundedness of pseudo-differential operators with homogeneous symbols in and (q>1), which generalize the corresponding classical results on homogeneous Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces when p∈(1,∞) and q∈[1,∞) by taking τ=0.

A remark on Ricceri's conjecture for a class of nonlinear eigenvalue problems

Consider the eigenvalue problem : −Δu=λf(x,u) in Ω, u=0 on ∂Ω, where Ω is a bounded smooth domain in RN. Denote by the set of all Carathéodory functions f:Ω×R→R such that for a.e. x∈Ω, f(x,⋅) is Lipschitzian with Lipschitz constant L, f(x,0)=0 and , and denote by (resp. ) the set of λ>0 such that has at least one nonzero classical (resp. weak) solution. Let λ₁ be the first eigenvalue for the Laplacian-Dirichlet problem. We prove that and . Our result is a positive answer to Ricceri's conjecture if use f(x,u) instead of f(u) in the conjecture.     

New Pólya-Schoenberg type theorems

In this paper the theory of Hadamard product multipliers is extended from the unit disk in the complex plane to arbitrary so-called disk-like domains, i.e. such domains which are the union of disks or half-planes, all containing the origin. In such a domain, say Ω, we define (the class of) generalized prestarlike functions of order α?1 and ask for Hadamard multipliers g analytic at z=0 for which implies . We prove that such a multiplier necessarily has to be analytic in

     

Simultaneous bifurcation of limit cycles from two nests of periodic orbits

Let be an holomorphic differential equation having a center at p, and consider the following perturbation . We give an integral expression, similar to an Abelian integral, whose zeroes control the limit cycles that bifurcate from the periodic orbits of the period annulus of p. This expression is given in terms of the linearizing map of at p. The result is applied to control the simultaneous bifurcation of limit cycles from the two period annuli of , after a polynomial perturbation.     

Large deviations for martingales and derivatives

Integral bilinear forms, Coxeter transformations and Coxeter polynomials of finite posets

Linear algebra technique in the study of linear representations of finite posets is developed in the paper. A concept of a quadratic wandering on a class of posets I is introduced and finite posets I are studied by means of the four integral bilinear forms (1.1), the associated Coxeter transformations, and the Coxeter polynomials (in connection with bilinear forms of Dynkin diagrams, extended Dynkin diagrams and irreducible root systems are also studied). Bilinear equivalences between some of the forms are established and equivalences with the bilinear forms of Dynkin diagrams and extended Dynkin diagrams are discussed. A homological interpretation of the bilinear forms (1.1) is given and Z-bilinear equivalences between them are discussed. By applying well-known results of Bongartz, Loupias, and Zavadskij-Shkabara, we give several characterisations of posets I, with the Euler form weakly positive (resp. with the reduced Euler form weakly positive), and posets I, with the Tits form weakly positive.
