On Well-posed Mutually Nearest and Mutually Furthest Point Problems in Banach Spaces

Let G be a non-empty closed(resp．bounded closed)boundedly relatively weakly compact subset in a strictly convex Kadec Banach space X．Let K(X)denote the space of all non-empty compact convex subsets of X endowed with the Hausdorff distance．Moreover,let KG(X)denote the closure of the set {A∈K(x)：A∩G=0}．We prove that the set of all A∈KG(X)(resp．A∈K(X)),such that the minimization (resp．maximization)problem min(A,G)(resp．max(A,G))is well posed,contains a dense Gδ-subset of KG(X)(resp．K(X))．thus extending the recent results due to Blasi,Myjak and Papini and Li．     

Some Limit Theorems for a Particle System of Single Point Catalytic Branching Random Walks

We study the scaling limit for a catalytic branching particle system whose particles perform random walks on Z and can branch at 0 only. Varying the initial （finite） number of particles, we get for this system different limiting distributions. To be more specific, suppose that initially there are n^β particles and consider the scaled process Zt^n（·） = Znt（√n·）, where Zt is the measure-valued process 1 and to a representing the original particle system. We prove that Ztn converges to 0 when β 〈1/4 and to a nondegenerate discrete distribution when β=1/4.In addition,if 1/4〈β〈1/2 then n-^（2β-1/2）Zt^n converges to a random limit,while if β 〉21then n^-βZtn converges to a deterministic limit.

More on Bounding Introspection in Modal Nonmonotonic Logics

Abstract By we denote the set of all propositional formulas. Let be the set of all clauses. Define . In Sec. 2 of this paper we prove that for normal modal logics , the notions of -expansions and -expansions coincide. In Sec. 3, we prove that if I consists of default clauses then the notions of -expansions for I and -expansions for I coincide. To this end, we first show, in Sec. 3, that the notion of -expansions for I is the same as that of -expansions for I. The project is supported by NSFC

On Mane＇s Proof of the C^1 Stability Conjecture

It seems that in Mane＇s proof of the C^1 Ω-stability conjecture containing in the famous paper which published in I. H. E. S. （1988）, there exists a deficiency in the main lemma which says that for f ∈F^1 （M） there exists a dominated splitting TMPi（f） =Ei^s the direlf sum of E and F Fi^u（O 〈 i 〈 dim M） such that if Ei^s is contracting, then Fi^u is expanding. In the first part of the paper, we give a proof to fill up this deficiency. In the last part of the paper, we, under a weak assumption, prove a result that seems to be useful in the study of dynamics in some other stability context.     

A Class Of Counterexamples Concerning an Open Problem

Kenneth R. Davidson raised ten open problems in the book Nest Algebras. One of theseopen problems isProblem 7 If K（交集）AlgL is weak^* dense in AlgL, where K is the set of all compact operators in B(H）,is L completely distributive? In this note, we prove that there is a reflexive subspace lattice L on some Hilbert space, which satisfies the following conditions: (a)F(AlgL) is dense in AlgL in the ultrastrong operator topology, where F(AlgL) is the set of all finite rank operators in AlgL; (b) L isn‘t a completely distributive lattice. The subspace lattices that satisfy the above conditions form a large class of lattices. As a special case of the result, it easy to see that the answer to Problem 7 is negative.

For any element a in a generalized 2^n-dimensional Clifford algebra Lln （F） over an arbitrary field F of characteristic not equal to two, it is shown that there exits a universal invertible matrix Pn over Lln（F） such that Pn^-1DnPn= φ（α）∈F^2n×2n, where φ（a） is a matrix representation of α over and Dα is a diagonal matrix consisting of a or its conjugate.     

Asymptotic Expansions of the Heat Kernel of the Laplacian for General Annular Bounded Domains with Robin Boundary Conditions：Further Results

The asymptotic expansions of the trace of the heat kernel θ(t)=∑^∞v=1^exp(-tλv) for small positive t,where {λv} are the eigenvalues of the negative Laplacian -△n=-∑^ni=1(D/Dx^1)^2 in R^2(n=2 or 3),are studied for a general annular bounded domain Ω with a smooth inner boundary DΩ1 and a smooth outer boundary DΩ2,where a finite number of piecewise smooth Robin boundary conditions(D/Dnj γh)Ф=0 on the components Гj(j= 1,...,m) of (DΩ1 and on the components Гj (j=k 1,…,m) of of DΩ2 are considered such that DΩl=U^kj=lГj and DΩ2= U^m=k 1Гj and where the coefficients γj(j=1,...,m) are piecewise smooth positive functions. Some applications of θ(t) for an ideal gas enclosed in the general annular bounded domain Ω are given. Further results are also obtained.     

Weak Hopf Algebras Corresponding to Borcherds-Cartan Matrices

Let y be a generalized Kac-Moody algebra with an integral Borcherds-Cartan matrix. In this paper, we define a d-type weak quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebra wUq^d（y）, which is a weak Hopf algebra. We also study the highest weight module over the weak quantum algebra wUdq^d（y） and weak A-forms of wUq^d（y）.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-Besselian Frames in Banach Spaces

In this paper, we introduce the concepts of q-Besselian frame and （p, σ）-near Riesz basis in a Banach space, where a is a finite subset of positive integers and 1/p＋1/q = 1 with p 〉 1, q 〉 1, and determine the relations among q-frame, p-Riesz basis, q-Besselian frame and （p, σ）-near Riesz basis in a Banach space. We also give some sufficient and necessary conditions on a q-Besselian frame for a Banach space. In particular, we prove reconstruction formulas for Banach spaces X and X^＊ that if {xn}n=1^∞ C X is a q-Besselian frame for X, then there exists a p-Besselian frame {y＆＊}n=1^∞ belong to X^＊ for X^＊ such that x = ∑n=1^∞ yn^＊（x）xn for all x ∈ X, and x^＊ =∑n=1^∞ x^＊（xn）yn^＊ for all x^＊ ∈ X^＊. Lastly, we consider the stability of a q-Besselian frame for the Banach space X under perturbation. Some results of J. R. Holub, P. G. Casazza, O. Christensen and others in Hilbert spaces are extended to Banach spaces.

Semi-Fredholm Spectrum and Weyl＇s Theorem for Operator Matrices

When A ∈ B（H） and B ∈ B（K） are given, we denote by Mc an operator acting on the Hilbert space HΘ K of the form Me = （ A0 CB）. In this paper, first we give the necessary and sufficient condition for Mc to be an upper semi-Fredholm （lower semi-Fredholm, or Fredholm） operator for some C ∈B（K,H）. In addition, let σSF＋（A） = {λ ∈ C ： A-λI is not an upper semi-Fredholm operator} bc the upper semi-Fredholm spectrum of A ∈ B（H） and let σrsF- （A） = {λ∈ C ： A-λI is not a lower semi-Fredholm operator} be the lower semi Fredholm spectrum of A. We show that the passage from σSF±（A） U σSF±（B） to σSF±（Mc） is accomplished by removing certain open subsets of σSF-（A） ∩σSF＋ （B） from the former, that is, there is an equality σSF±（A） ∪σSF± （B） = σSF± （Mc） ∪＆ where L is the union of certain of the holes in σSF±（Mc） which ilappen to be subsets of σSF- （A） A σSF＋ （B）. Weyl＇s theorem and Browder＇s theorem are liable to fail for 2 × 2 operator matrices. In this paper, we also explore how Weyl＇s theorem, Browder＇s theorem, a-Weyl＇s theorem and a-Browder＇s theorem survive for 2 × 2 upper triangular operator matrices on the Hilbert space.     

Blow-up criterion for 2-D Boussinesq equations in bounded domain

We extend the results for 2-D Boussinesq equations from ℝ² to a bounded domain Ω. First, as for the existence of weak solutions, we transform Boussinesq equations to a nonlinear evolution equation U _t + A(t, U) = 0. In stead of using the methods of fundamental solutions in the case of entire ℝ², we study the qualities of F(u, υ) = (u · ▽)υ to get some useful estimates for A(t, U), which helps us to conclude the local-in-time existence and uniqueness of solutions. Second, as for blow-up criterions, we use energy methods, Sobolev inequalities and Gronwall inequality to control and by and . Furthermore, can control by using vorticity transportation equations. At last, can control . Thus, we can find a blow-up criterion in the form of .      

The Resolvent Problem and $${{H^{\infty}}}$$ -calculus of the Stokes Operator in Unbounded Cylinders with Several Exits to Infinity

It is proved that the Stokes operator in L^q -space on an infinite cylindrical domain of , , with several exits to infinity generates a bounded and exponentially decaying analytic semigroup and admits a bounded -calculus. For the resolvent estimates, the Stokes resolvent system with a prescribed divergence in an infinite straight cylinder with bounded cross-section is studied in L ^q where and is an arbitrary Muckenhoupt weight. The proofs use cut-off techniques and the theory of Schauder decomposition of UMD spaces based on -boundedness of operator families and on square function estimates involving Muckenhoupt weights.
