Rigidity around Poisson submanifolds

We prove a rigidity theorem in Poisson geometry around compact Poisson submanifolds, using the Nash–Moser fast convergence method. In the case of one-point submanifolds (fixed points), this implies a stronger version of Conn’s linearization theorem [2], also proving that Conn’s theorem is a manifestation of a rigidity phenomenon; similarly, in the case of arbitrary symplectic leaves, it gives a stronger version of the local normal form theorem [7]. We can also use the rigidity theorem to compute the Poisson moduli space of the sphere in the dual of a compact semisimple Lie algebra [17].     

The General Solution of Abel-Type Functional Equations

The general measurable solution of (A) was found by Stamate [8]. Aczél [3] and Lajkô [6] proved that the general solution of (A) for unknown functions ψ, g, h: ? → ? are (1), (2) and (3), respectively. Filipescu [5] found the general measurable solution of (B). We establish an elementary prof for the general solution of equation (A) (Theorem 1.). Our method is suitable for finding the general solution of (B) (Theorem 2.).     

On complex lie supergroups and split homogeneous supermanifolds

It is well known that the category of real Lie supergroups is equivalent to the category of the so-called (real) Harish-Chandra pairs, see [DM], [Kost], [Kosz]. That means that a Lie supergroup depends only on the underlying Lie group and its Lie superalgebra with certain compatibility conditions. More precisely, the structure sheaf of a Lie supergroup and the supergroup morphisms can be explicitly described in terms of the corresponding Lie superalgebra. In this paper we give a proof of this result in the complex-analytic case. Furthermore, if (G, $ \mathcal{O} $ _G ) is a complex Lie supergroup and H ? G is a closed Lie subgroup, i.e., it is a Lie subsupergroup of (G, $ \mathcal{O} $ _G ) and its odd dimension is zero, we show that the corresponding homogeneous supermanifold (G/H, $ \mathcal{O} $ _G/H ) is split. In particular, any complex Lie supergroup is a split supermanifold. It is well known that a complex homogeneous supermanifold may be nonsplit (see, e.g., [OS1]). We find here necessary and sufficient conditions for a complex homogeneous supermanifold to be split.     

A Weighted Generalization of the Classical Kantorovich Operator. II: Saturation

In [1], we have introduced a new weighted type of modification of the classical Kantorovich operator. The advantage of this operator is that there is no restriction on the parameters of the weight, and the class of functions is wider than in the earlier version of the weighted operator (cf. the monograph of Ditzian and Totik [3]). Direct and converse theorems and a Voronovskaya-type relation were proved. Here we solve the saturation problem of the operator (Theorem 2.1). We follow the method developed in [3], but the details are much more involved. A surprising fact emerges in determining the trivial class of saturation (Theorem 3.1).     

Erratum to: Algèbres de lie quasi-réductives

In Corollary 12(ii) and Theorem 13(v) of [1] we omitted the hypothesis dim $ \mathfrak{z}\leq 1 $ . Moreover, in some places the symbol $ \mathbb{K} $ must be replaced by the symbol $ {{\mathbb{K}}^{\times }} $ .     

Quasi-stationary stefan problem with values on the front depending on its geometry

The problem presented below is a singular-limit problem of the extension of the Cahn-Hilliard model obtained via introducing the asymmetry of the surface tension tensor under one of the truncations (approximations) of the inner energy [2, 5–8, 10, 12, 13].     

Exponential polynomials on commutative hypergroups

Polynomials and exponential polynomials play a fundamental role in the theory of spectral analysis and spectral synthesis on commutative groups. Recently several new results have been published in this field [2–4,6]. Spectral analysis and spectral synthesis has been studied on some types of commutative hypergroups, as well. However, a satisfactory definition of exponential monomials on general commutative hypergroups has not been available so far. In [5,7,8] and [9], the authors use a special concept on polynomial and Sturm–Liouville-hypergroups. Here we give a general definition which covers the known special cases.     

Further results on factorization of meromorphic solutions of partial differential equations

This paper is a continuation of Hu-Yang [2]. Here we extend Malmquist type theorem ofalgebraic differential equations of Steinmetz [3] and Tu [4] to higher order partial differential equations. The results also generalize Theorems 4.2 and 4.3 in [2].     

The Mixed Curvatures on C N

The aim of the present paper is devoted to the investigation of some geometrical properties on the middle envelope in terms of the invariants of the third quadratic form of the normal line congruence C_N . The mixed middle curvature and mixed curvature on C_N are obtained in tenus of the Mean and Gauss curvatures of the surface of reference. Our study is considered as a continuation to Stephanidis ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5]). The technique adapted here is based on the methods of moving frames and their related exteriour forms [6] and [7].     

F-harmonic maps as global maxima

In this note, we show that some $F$ -harmonic maps into spheres are global maxima of the variations of their energy functional on the conformal group of the sphere. Our result extends partially those obtained in El Soufi and Lejune [C.R.A.S. 315(Serie I):1189–1192, 1992] and El Soufi [Compositio Math 95:343–362,1995] for harmonic and $p$ -harmonic maps.     

Constructive finite free resolutions

Northcott’s book Finite Free Resolutions (1976), as well as the paper (J. Reine Angew. Math. 262/263:205–219, 1973), present some key results of Buchsbaum and Eisenbud (J. Algebra 25:259–268, 1973; Adv. Math. 12: 84–139, 1974) both in a simplified way and without Noetherian hypotheses, using the notion of latent nonzero divisor introduced by Hochster. The goal of this paper is to simplify further the proofs of these results, which become now elementary in a logical sense (no use of prime ideals, or minimal prime ideals) and, we hope, more perspicuous. Some formulations are new and more general than in the references (J. Algebra 25:259–268, 1973; Adv. Math. 12: 84–139, 1974; Finite Free Resolutions 1976) (Theorem 7.2, Lemma 8.2 and Corollary 8.5).     

A note on the global convergence theorem of the scaled conjugate gradient algorithms proposed by Andrei

In (Andrei, Comput. Optim. Appl. 38:402?C416, 2007), the efficient scaled conjugate gradient algorithm SCALCG is proposed for solving unconstrained optimization problems. However, due to a wrong inequality used in (Andrei, Comput. Optim. Appl. 38:402?C416, 2007) to show the sufficient descent property for the search directions of SCALCG, the proof of Theorem?2, the global convergence theorem of SCALCG, is incorrect. Here, in order to complete the proof of Theorem?2 in (Andrei, Comput. Optim. Appl. 38:402?C416, 2007), we show that the search directions of SCALCG satisfy the sufficient descent condition. It is remarkable that the convergence analyses in (Andrei, Optim. Methods Softw. 22:561?C571, 2007; Eur. J. Oper. Res. 204:410?C420, 2010) should be revised similarly.     

Nilpotent Gelfand pairs and spherical transforms of Schwartz functions I: rank-one actions on the centre

The spectrum of a Gelfand pair of the form ${(K\ltimes N,K)}$ , where N is a nilpotent group, can be embedded in a Euclidean space ${{\mathbb R}^d}$ . The identification of the spherical transforms of K-invariant Schwartz functions on N with the restrictions to the spectrum of Schwartz functions on ${{\mathbb R}^d}$ has been proved already when N is a Heisenberg group and in the case where N?=?N _3,2 is the free two-step nilpotent Lie group with three generators, with K?=?SO₃ (Astengo et?al. in J Funct Anal 251:772–791, 2007; Astengo et?al. in J Funct Anal 256:1565–1587, 2009; Fischer and Ricci in Ann Inst Fourier Gren 59:2143–2168, 2009). We prove that the same identification holds for all pairs in which the K-orbits in the centre of N are spheres. In the appendix, we produce bases of K-invariant polynomials on the Lie algebra ${{\mathfrak n}}$ of N for all Gelfand pairs ${(K\ltimes N,K)}$ in Vinberg’s list (Vinberg in Trans Moscow Math Soc 64:47–80, 2003; Yakimova in Transform Groups 11:305–335, 2006).     

A tableau formula for eta polynomials

We use the Pieri and Giambelli formulas of Buch et al. (Invent Math 178:345–405, 2009; J Reine Angew, 2013) and the calculus of raising operators developed in Buch et al. (A Giambelli formula for isotropic Grassmannians, arXiv:0811.2781, 2008) and Tamvakis (J Reine Angew Math 652, 207–244, 2011) to prove a tableau formula for the eta polynomials of Buch et al. (J Reine Angew, 2013) and the Stanley symmetric functions which correspond to Grassmannian elements of the Weyl group $\widetilde{W}_n$ of type $\text {D}_n$ . We define the skew elements of $\widetilde{W}_n$ and exhibit a bijection between the set of reduced words for any skew $w\in \widetilde{W}_n$ and a set of certain standard typed tableaux on a skew shape $\lambda /\mu $ associated to $w$ .     

Half-flat structures on indecomposable Lie groups

This article can be viewed as a continuation of the articles [SH] and [FS] in which the decomposable Lie algebras admitting half-flat SU(3)-structures are classified. The new main result is the classification of the indecomposable six-dimensional Lie algebras with five-dimensional nilradicals which admit a half-flat SU(3)-structure. As an important step of the proof, a considerable refinement of the classification of six-dimensional Lie algebras with five-dimensional non-Abelian nilradicals is established. Additionally, it is proved that all non-solvable six-dimensional Lie algebras admit half-flat SU(3)-structures.     

An inverse-free Newton-Jarratt-type iterative method for solving equations under the gamma condition

A local as well as a semilocal convergence analysis for Newton–Jarratt–type iterative method for solving equations in a Banach space setting is studied here using information only at a point via a gamma-type condition (Argyros in Approximate Solution of Operator Equations with Applications, [2005]; Wang in Chin. Sci. Bull. 42(7):552–555, [1997]). This method has already been examined by us in (Argyros et al. in J. Comput. Appl. Math. 51:103–106, [1994]; Argyros in Comment. Mat. XXIII:97–108, [1994]), where the order of convergence four was established using however information on the domain of the operator. In this study we also establish the same order of convergence under weaker conditions. Moreover we show that all though we use weaker conditions the results obtained here can be used to solve equations in cases where the results in (Argyros et al. in J. Comput. Appl. Math. 51:103–106, [1994]; Argyros in Comment. Mat. XXIII:97–108, [1994]) cannot apply. Our method is inverse free, and therefore cheaper at the second step in contrast with the corresponding two–step Newton methods. Numerical Examples are also provided.     

To the question on the almost everywhere convergence of the Riesz means of double orthogonal series

Sufficient conditions of the classical type ensuring the almost everywhere (a.e.) convergence of the nonnegative-order Riesz means of double orthogonal series are indicated. Analogies of the onedimensional results of Kolmogoroff [7] and Kaczmarz?CZygmund [5, 12] have been obtained for the Cesaro means and those of Zygmund [13] for the Riesz means. These analogies establish the a.e. equiconvergence of the lacunary subsequences of rectangular partial sums and of the entire sequence of Riesz means, generalize the corresponding results of Moricz [9] for the Cesaro a.e. summability by (C, 1, 1), (C, 1, 0), and (C, 0, 1) methods of double orthogonal series, and were announced earlier without proofs in the author??s work [3].     

Correction: Nearly Quartic Mappings in β-Homogeneous F-Spaces [Results Math. 63 (2013) 529–541]

In Chang et al. (Results Math. 63:529–541, 2013), Eshaghi Gordji et al. proved the Hyers-Ulam stability of a quartic functional equation in β-homogeneous F-spaces. In the main step of the proof of Chang et al. (Results Math. 63:529–541, 2013, Theorem 2.2), there is a fatal error. We correct the statement of Chang et al. (Results Math. 63:529–541, 2013, Theorem 2.2).     

A symmetry property for q-weighted Robinson–Schensted and other branching insertion algorithms

In [19], a \(q\) -weighted version of the Robinson–Schensted algorithm was introduced. In this paper, we show that this algorithm has a symmetry property analogous to the well-known symmetry property of the usual Robinson–Schensted algorithm. The proof uses a generalisation of the growth diagram approach introduced by Fomin [5–8]. This approach, which uses ‘growth graphs’, can also be applied to a wider class of insertion algorithms which have a branching structure, including some of the other \(q\) -weighted versions of the Robinson–Schensted algorithm which have recently been introduced by Borodin–Petrov [2].
