Note On linear consistency of anonymous values for TU-games

In the framework of values for TU-games, it is shown that a particular type of consistency, called linear consistency, together with some kind of standardness for two-person games, imply efficiency, anonymity, linearity, as well as uniqueness of the value. Among others, this uniform treatment generalizes Sobolev's axiomatization of the Shapley value. Revised version: December 2001     

Meromorphic functions on compact Riemann surfaces and value sharing

Let X be a smooth and connected Riemann surface of genus g 0 and f: X P1, h: X P1 non-constant meromorphic functions on X. Fix an integer n 4 and assume the existence of n distinct points a1, , an P1 such that [image omitted] (set-theoretically) for every i. Here we prove that either f = h or [image omitted].     

Functions averages over the roots of unity,cauchy problems and addition formulas

An averaging operator over the roots of unity is defined on a class of analytic functions and its algebraic and analytic properties are investigated. A Cauchy like integral formula for this is obtained. This operator and its properties are then employed to solve higher order Cauchy problems, to derive addition formulas for hypergeometric functions and to obtain integral representations for special classes of hypergeometric functions.     

Characterization of Finite Groups With Some <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-quasinormal Subgroups

A subgroup of a finite group G is said to be S-quasinormal in G if it permutes with every Sylow subgroup of G. In this paper we give a characterization of a finite group G under the assumption that every subgroup of the generalized Fitting subgroup of prime order is S-quasinormal in G.     

Orthogonality of cosets relative to irreducible characters of finite groups

Studied is an assumption on a group that ensures that no matter how the group is embedded in a symmetric group, the corresponding symmetrized tensor space has an orthogonal basis of standard (decomposable) symmetrized tensors.     

Homogeneous nilmanifolds attached to representations of compact Lie groups

For each compact Lie algebra ? and each real representation V of ? we consider a two-step nilpotent Lie group N(?,V), endowed with a natural left-invariant riemannian metric. The homogeneous nilmanifolds so obtained are precisely those which are naturally reductive. We study some geometric aspects of these manifolds, finding many parallels with H-type groups. We also obtain, within the class of manifolds N(?,V), the first examples of non-weakly symmetric, naturally reductive spaces and new examples of non-commutative naturally reductive spaces.

Boundary behaviour of inner functions and holomorphic mappings

Let be a holomorphic function in the unit disk omitting a set of values of the complex plane. If has positive logarithmic capacity, R. Nevanlinna proved that has a radial limit at almost every point of the unit circle. If is any infinite set, we show that has a radial limit at every point of a set of Hausdorff dimension 1. A localization technique reduces this result to the following theorem on inner functions. If is an inner function omitting a set of values in the unit disk, then for any accumulation point of in the disk, there exists a set of Hausdorff dimension 1 of points in the circle where has radial limit .

Some Examples in the Theory of Subgroup Growth

By estimating the subgroup numbers associated with various classes of large groups, we exhibit a number of new phenomena in the theory of subgroup growth.     

Small functions and weighted sharing three values

This article studies the problem of the uniqueness of meromorphic functions that weighted sharing three values which improve some results given by Yi [Theorem 4, Yi, H.X., 1995, Unicity theorems for meromorphic functions that share three values. Kodai Mathematical Journal, 18, 300-314] and Ueda [Ueda, H., 1983, Unicity theorems for meromorphic or entire functions II. Kodai Mathematical Journal, 6, 26-36] and other authors. An application of these new results, if f and g are two distinct nonconstant meromorphic functions sharing 0, 1 and CM, and a is a nonconstant rational function, then N2)(r,1/(g-a))= [image omitted] An example shows that the latter result is not true for some transcendental small functions of f and g.     

Involutory Automorphisms of Groups of Odd Order

The following theorem is proved. Let G be a finite group of odd order admitting an involutory automorphism φ. Suppose that G has derived length d and that C_G(φ) is nilpotent of class c. Assume that C_G(φ) is a m-generator. Then [G,φ]^′ is nilpotent of {c,d,m}-bounded class.     

Le problème de Brill–Noether et le théorème de Teixidor

Let C be a smooth projective algebraic curve of genus g. The Brill–Noether problem is to determine at which conditions on n, d and k, there exists a stable vector bundle of rank n, degree d and with at least k independent global sections. Teixidor gave a rather general answer about the existence in her paper [Tei]. The result was available only for a generic curve, in a very imprecise sense, and the proof was really difficult. We show here, that the result is in fact true for all curves and a little more. Received: 5 September 1997 / Revised version: 15 June 1998     

Sampling measures for Bergman spaces on the unit disk

We provide a characterization of the sampling measures for the Bergman spaces. These are the positive measures on the unit disk for which there exists a constant such that These are the continuous analogues of the sets of sampling characterized by K. Seip [13,14] and A. Schuster [12]. Our characterization is in terms of weak* limits of the Moebius transformations of the measure , and mimics the notion for sequences that sampling means being uniformly far from zero sets.

Circularity of Finite Groups without Fixed Points

Let be a fixed point free group given by the presentation where and are relative prime numbers, t = /s and s = gcd( – 1,), and is the order of modulo . We prove that if (1) = 2, and (2) is embeddable into the multiplicative group of some skew field, then is circular. This means that there is some additive group N on which acts fixed point freely, and |((a)+b)((c)+d)| 2 whenever a,b,c,d N, a0c, are such that (a)+b(c)+d.     

The high temperature case for the random K-sat problem

We give a completely rigorous proof that the replica-symmetric solution holds at high enough temperature for the random K-sat problem. The most notable feature of this problem is that the order parameter of the system is a function and not a number.

Discrete isoperimetric and Poincaré-type inequalities

We study some discrete isoperimetric and Poincaré-type inequalities for product probability measures μ ⁿ on the discrete cube {0, 1} ⁿ and on the lattice Z ⁿ . In particular we prove sharp lower estimates for the product measures of boundaries of arbitrary sets in the discrete cube. More generally, we characterize those probability distributions μ on Z which satisfy these inequalities on Z ⁿ . The class of these distributions can be described by a certain class of monotone transforms of the two-sided exponential measure. A similar characterization of distributions on R which satisfy Poincaré inequalities on the class of convex functions is proved in terms of variances of suprema of linear processes.

The Projective Class Ring of Basic and Split Hopf Algebras

We describe the structure of the complexification of the projective class ring of a basic and split Hopf algebra using a positive integer determined by the composition series of the projective cover of the trivial module. If q is a root of unity of order n, the projective class algebra of u_q ⁺(sl₂) is the product of n–1 copies of the dual numbers over C and two copies of C.     

On Powerful Normal Subgroups of a p-Group

 In this paper we investigate the action of a p-group G on its powerful normal subgroup N. We shall mainly be concerned to find conditions which guarantee that G acts uniserially on N. We shall also study what consequences uniserial action on N has on the structure of N. (Received 21 August 1998; in revised form 28 June 1999)
