Yangians and cohomology rings of Laumon spaces

Laumon moduli spaces are certain smooth closures of the moduli spaces of maps from the projective line to the flag variety of GL _n . We construct the action of the Yangian of \mathfraksl_n{\mathfrak{sl}_n} in the cohomology of Laumon spaces by certain natural correspondences. We construct the action of the affine Yangian (two-parametric deformation of the universal enveloping algebra of the universal central extension of \mathfraksl_n[s^±1,t]{\mathfrak{sl}_n[s^{\pm1},t]}) in the cohomology of the affine version of Laumon spaces. We compute the matrix coefficients of the generators of the affine Yangian in the fixed point basis of cohomology. This basis is an affine analog of the Gelfand-Tsetlin basis. The affine analog of the Gelfand-Tsetlin algebra surjects onto the equivariant cohomology rings of the affine Laumon spaces. The cohomology ring of the moduli space \mathfrakM_n,d{\mathfrak{M}_{n,d}} of torsion free sheaves on the plane, of rank n and second Chern class d, trivialized at infinity, is naturally embedded into the cohomology ring of certain affine Laumon space. It is the image of the center Z of the Yangian of \mathfrakgl_n{\mathfrak{gl}_n} naturally embedded into the affine Yangian. In particular, the first Chern class of the determinant line bundle on \mathfrakM_n,d{\mathfrak{M}_{n,d}} is the image of a noncommutative power sum in Z.     

Completely integrable equations on homogeneous spaces

Completely integrable linear Pfaff systems are investigated, and some of their generalizations to manifolds M=G/, where G is a Lie group and is a discrete subgroup of G, are studied. The reducibility of such a system to a system with constant coefficients with respect to a natural parallelism on M is considered.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 9, No. 4, pp. 365–373, April, 1971.     

Twistors, 4-symmetric spaces and integrable systems

An order four automorphism of a Lie algebra gives rise to an integrable system introduced by Terng. We show that solutions of this system may be identified with certain vertically harmonic twistor lifts of conformal maps of surfaces in a Riemannian symmetric space. As applications, we find that surfaces with holomorphic mean curvature in 4-dimensional real or complex space forms constitute an integrable system as do Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian surfaces in 4-dimensional Hermitian symmetric spaces (this last providing a conceptual explanation of a result of Hélein-Romon).     

Distances to spaces of measurable and integrable functions

Given a complete probability space and a Banach space X we establish formulas to compute the distance from a function to the spaces of strongly measurable functions and Bochner integrable functions. We study the relationship between these distances and use them to prove some quantitative counterparts of Pettis’ measurability theorem. We also give several examples showing that some of our estimates are sharp.     

Approximations in spaces of locally integrable functions

We study approximations of functions from the sets $\hat L_\beta ^\psi \mathfrak{N}$ , which are determined by convolutions of the following form: $$f\left( x \right) = A_0 + \int\limits_{ - \infty }^\infty {\varphi \left( {x + t} \right)\hat \psi _\beta \left( t \right)dt, \varphi \in \mathfrak{N}, \hat \psi _\beta \in L\left( { - \infty ,\infty } \right),} $$ where η is a fixed subset of functions with locally integrablepth powers (p≥1). As approximating aggregates, we use the so-called Fourier operators, which are entire functions of exponential type ≤ σ. These functions turn into trigonometric polynomials if the function ?(·) is periodic (in particular, they may be the Fourier sums of the function approximated). The approximations are studied in the spacesL _p determined by local integral norms ∥·∥_-p . Analogs of the Lebesgue and Favard inequalities, wellknown in the periodic case, are obtained and used for finding estimates of the corresponding best approximations which are exact in order. On the basis of these inequalities, we also establish estimates of approximations by Fourier operators, which are exact in order and, in some important cases, exact with respect to the constants of the principal terms of these estimates.     

A new discrete integrable system and its discrete integrable coupling system

In terms of the properties of the known loop algebra and difference operators, a new algebraic system X is constructed, which is devote to working out the well-known generalized cubic Volterra lattice equations hierarchy. Then an extended algebraic system of X is presented, from which the integrable coupling system of generalized cubic Volterra lattice equations are obtained.     

Ordered representations of spaces of integrable functions

Let X be a Banach space, (Ω,Σ) a measurable space and let m : Σ → X be a (countably additive) vector measure. Consider the corresponding space of integrable functions L¹(m). In this paper we analyze the set of (countably additive) vector measures n satisfying that L¹(n) = L¹(m). In order to do this we define a (quasi) order relation on this set to obtain under adequate requirements the simplest representation of the space L¹(m) associated to downward directed subsets of the set of all the representations.

On the convergence of series in spaces of integrable functions

A sufficient condition for the convergence of series in the spaces L _p on a set of infinite measure is obtained.     

Weak continuity of Riemann integrable functions in Lebesgue-Bochner spaces

In general, Banach space-valued Riemann integrable functions defined on [0, 1] （equipped with the Lebesgue measure） need not be weakly continuous almost everywhere. A Banach space is said to have the weak Lebesgue property if every Riemann integrable function taking values in it is weakly continuous almost everywhere. In this paper we discuss this property for the Banach space LX^1 of all Bochner integrable functions from [0, 1] to the Banach space X. We show that LX^1 has the weak Lebesgue property whenever X has the Radon-Nikodym property and X＊ is separable. This generalizes the result by Chonghu Wang and Kang Wan [Rocky Mountain J. Math., 31（2）, 697-703 （2001）] that L^1[0, 1] has the weak Lebesgue property.     

Inductive limits of spaces of vector- valued integrable functions

For an order-continuous Banach function space Λ and a separated inductive limit E:= ind_n E _n, we prove that ind_n A {E_n} is a topological subspace of Λ {E}; moreover, both spaces coincide if the inductive limit is hyperstrict. As a consequence, we deduce that if E is an LF-space, then L ^p {E} is barrelled for 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞.     

Discrete Zakharov-Shabat system and integrable equations

The method of dressing is carried over to the case of discrete spectral problems. As a result one obtains new differential-difference analogues of completely integrable equations: the sine-Gordon equation, the nonlinear Schrö'dinger vector equation, and the system of N-wave equations.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Differential equations with non-absolutely integrable functions in ordered Banach spaces

In this paper we derive existence and comparison results for initial value problems in ordered Banach spaces. The considered problems can be implicit, singular, functional, discontinuous and nonlocal. The main tools are fixed point results in ordered spaces and theory of HL integrable vector-valued functions. Concrete examples are presented and solved.     

Extensions of certain operators to spaces of abstract integrable functions

In this paper we discuss the extension of operators onL ₁ ^R spaces to operators onL ₁ ^E andP ₁ ^E spaces (see Section 1), whereE is a Banach space. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the extension to a spaceP ₁ ^E is given (see Section 3) whenE has the weak Radon-Nikodym property. The paper contains certain applications to ergodic theory and a theorem giving a characterization of weakly conditionally compact sets.     

Conditional expectations and weak and strong compactness in spaces of Bochner integrable functions

In [6, theorem IV.8.18], relatively norm compact sets K in L^p(μ) are characterized by means of strong convergence of conditional expectations, E_πf → f in L^p(μ), uniformly for f ∈ K, where (E_π) is the family of conditional expectations corresponding to the net of all finite measurable partitions.In this paper we extend the above result in several ways: we consider nets of not necessarily finite partitions; we consider spaces $\text{L}{}_{\mathrm{E}}{}^{\mathrm{p}}\text{(μ)}$ of vector valued pth power Bochner integrable functions (and spaces M(Σ, E) of vector valued measures with finite variation); we characterize relatively strong compact sets K in $\text{L}{}_{\mathrm{E}}{}^{\mathrm{p}}\text{(μ)}$ by means of uniform strong convergence E_πf → f, as well as relatively weak compact sets K by means of uniform weak convergence E_πf → f. Previously, in [4], uniform strong convergence (together with some other conditions) was proved to be sufficient (but not necessary) for relative weak compactness.
