Distribution Modulo 1 of Some Oscillating Sequences. III

For some oscillating functions, such as , we consider the distribution properties modulo 1 (density, uniform distribution) of the sequence , . We obtain positive and negative results covering the case when the factor is replaced by an arbitrary function of at most polynomial growth belonging to any Hardy field. (The latter condition may be viewed as a regularity growth condition on .) Similar results are obtained for the subsequence , taken over the primes

Varieties Defined by Permutations

We continue to study interrelations between permutative varieties and the cyclic varieties defined by cycles of the form . A criterion is given determining whether a cyclic variety is interpretable in . For a permutation without fixed elements, it is stated that a set of primes for which is interpretable in in the lattice is finite. It is also proved that for distinct primes , the Helly number of a type in coincides with dimension of the dual type and equals .

On the Existence of Relative Injective Covers

Let be a hereditary torsion theory for the category -mod of unital left -modules over an associative ring with an identity element. The purpose of this note is to prove that if the associated Gabriel filter consists of finitely presented left ideals, then every module has a -injective cover and if contains a cofinal subset of finitely presented left ideals, then every module has a -torsionfree -injective cover. The methods used working with pure submodules contained in ``large" submodules also allow to unify the proofs of some previously known results.     

Algebras between C *(X) and C(X) that are closed under countable composition

Let be the algebra of all real-valued continuous functions on a completely regular space X, and the subalgebra of bounded functions. We show that the space of real maximal ideals of an intermediate algebra between and is a -embedded closed subspace of the product of with a product of copies of the real line. We make use of this embedding to provide a new characterization of the intermediate algebras that are closed under countable composition, and to exhibit an example of an intermediate algebra on that is closed under countable composition but not isomorphic to any .     

Bernstein-Type Theorems and Uniqueness Theorems

Let be an entire function of finite type with respect to finite order and let be a subset of an open cone in a certain n-dimensional subspace (the smaller , the sparser ). We assume that this cone contains a ray 0} \right\}$$ " align="middle" border="0"> . It is shown that the radial indicator of at any point may be evaluated in terms of function values at points of the discrete subset . Moreover, if tends to zero fast enough as over , then this function vanishes identically. To prove these results, a special approximation technique is developed. In the last part of the paper, it is proved that, under certain conditions on and , which are close to exact conditions, the function bounded on is bounded on the ray.     

On posets with isomorphic interval posets

Let be a partially ordered set, Int the system of all (nonempty) intervals of partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion . We are interested in partially ordered sets with Int isomorphic to Int . We are going to show that they correspond to couples of binary relations on A satisfying some conditions. If is a directed partially ordered set, the only with Int isomorphic to Int are corresponding to direct decompositions of ( denotes the dual of . The present results include those presented in the paper [11] by V. Slavík. Systems of intervals, particularly of lattices, have been investigated by many authors, cf. [1]–[11].     

Test Rank for Some Free Polynilpotent Groups

Quotient Groups of Groups of Certain Classes

For an arbitrary variety of groups and an arbitrary class of groups that is closed on quotient groups, we prove that a quotient group G/N of the group G possesses an invariant system with - and -factors (respectively, is a residually -group) if G possesses an invariant system with - and -factors (respectively, is a residually -group) and N (respectively, N is a maximal invariant -subgroup of the group G).     

On the Irreducibility of Commuting Varieties Associated with Involutions of Simple Lie Algebras

Let be a reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and an arbitrary -grading. We consider the variety , which is called the commuting variety associated with the -grading. Earlier it was proved by the author that is irreducible, if the -grading is of maximal rank. Now we show that is irreducible for and (E₆,F₄). In the case of symmetric pairs of rank one, we show that the number of irreducible components of is equal to that of nonzero non--regular nilpotent G ₀-orbits in . We also discuss a general problem of the irreducibility of commuting varieties.     

Minihypers and Linear Codes Meeting the Griesmer Bound: Improvements to Results of Hamada, Helleseth and Maekawa

This article improves results of Hamada, Helleseth and Maekawa on minihypers in projective spaces and linear codes meeting the Griesmer bound.In [10,12],it was shown that any -minihyper, with , where , is the disjoint union of points, lines,..., -dimensional subspaces. For q large, we improve on this result by increasing the upper bound on non-square, to non-square, square, , and (4) for square, p prime, p<3, to . In the case q non-square, the conclusion is the same as written above; the minihyper is the disjoint union of subspaces. When q is square however, the minihyper is either the disjoint union of subspaces, or the disjoint union of subspaces and one subgeometry . For the coding-theoretical problem, our results classify the corresponding codes meeting the Griesmer bound.     

Spin Models and Strongly Hyper-Self-Dual Bose-Mesner Algebras

We introduce the notion of hyper-self-duality for Bose-Mesner algebras as a strengthening of formal self-duality. Let denote a Bose-Mesner algebra on a finite nonempty set X. Fix p X, and let and denote respectively the dual Bose-Mesner algebra and the Terwilliger algebra of with respect to p. By a hyper-duality of , we mean an automorphism of such that for all ; and is a duality of . is said to be hyper-self-dual whenever there exists a hyper-duality of . We say that is strongly hyper-self-dual whenever there exists a hyper-duality of which can be expressed as conjugation by an invertible element of . We show that Bose-Mesner algebras which support a spin model are strongly hyper-self-dual, and we characterize strong hyper-self-duality via the module structure of the associated Terwilliger algebra.     

Trajectory and Global Attractors of Three-Dimensional Navier--Stokes Systems

We construct the trajectory attractor of a three-dimensional Navier--Stokes system with exciting force . The set consists of a class of solutions to this system which are bounded in , defined on the positive semi-infinite interval of the time axis, and can be extended to the entire time axis so that they still remain bounded-in- solutions of the Navier--Stokes system. In this case any family of bounded-in- solutions of this system comes arbitrary close to the trajectory attractor . We prove that the solutions are continuous in t if they are treated in the space of functions ranging in . The restriction of the trajectory attractor to , , is called the global attractor of the Navier--Stokes system. We prove that the global attractor thus defined possesses properties typical of well-known global attractors of evolution equations. We also prove that as the trajectory attractors and the global attractors of the -order Galerkin approximations of the Navier--Stokes system converge to the trajectory and global attractors and , respectively. Similar problems are studied for the cases of an exciting force of the form depending on time and of an external force rapidly oscillating with respect to the spatial variables or with respect to time .

Some Generalizations of the Notion of Length

Two numerical characteristics of a nonrectifiable arc generalizing the notion of length are introduced. Geometrically, this notion can naturally be generalized as the least upper bound of the sums , where are the lengths of segments of a polygonal line inscribed in the curve and is a given function. On the other hand, the length of is the norm of the functional in the space ; its norms in other spaces can be considered as analytical generalizations of length. In this paper, we establish conditions under which the generalized geometric rectifiability of a curve implies its generalized analytic rectifiability.

Sharp Conditions for the CLT of Linear Processes in a Hilbert Space

In this paper we study the behavior of sums of a linear process associated to a strictly stationary sequence with values in a real separable Hilbert space and are linear operators from H to H. One of the results is that satisfies the CLT provided are i.i.d. centered having finite second moments and . We shall provide an example which shows that the condition on the operators is essentially sharp. Extensions of this result are given for sequences of weak dependent random variables under minimal conditions.     

Equational Theories for Classes of Finite Semigroups

It is proved that there exists an infinite sequence of finitely based semigroup varieties such that, for all i, an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is undecidable while an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is decidable. An infinite sequence of finitely based semigroup varieties is constructed so that, for all i, an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is decidable whicle an equational theory for and for the class of all finite semigroups in is not.
