On additive properties of product sets in an arbitrary finite field

It is proved that for any two subsets A and B of an arbitrary finite field $ \mathbb{F}_q $ \mathbb{F}_q such that |A||B| > q, the identity 10AB = $ \mathbb{F}_q $ \mathbb{F}_q holds. Under the assumption |A||B| ⩾2q, this improves to 8AB = $ \mathbb{F}_q $ \mathbb{F}_q .     

Dual Riemannian spaces of constant curvature on a normalized hypersurface

In this paper, the following results are obtained: 1) It is proved that, in the fourth order differential neighborhood, a regular hypersurface V _n−1 embedded into a projective-metric space K _n , n ≥ 3, intrinsically induces a dual projective-metric space $ \bar K_n $ \bar K_n . 2) An invariant analytical condition is established under which a normalization of a hypersurface V _n−1 ⊂ K _n (a tangential hypersurface $ \bar V_{n - 1} $ \bar V_{n - 1} ⊂ $ \bar K_n $ \bar K_n ) by quasitensor fields H _n ⁱ , H _i ($ \bar H_n^i $ \bar H_n^i , $ \bar H_i $ \bar H_i ) induces a Riemannian space of constant curvature. If the two conditions are fulfilled simultaneously, the spaces R _n−1 and $ \bar R_{n - 1} $ \bar R_{n - 1} are spaces of the same constant curvature $ K = - \tfrac{1} {c} $ K = - \tfrac{1} {c} . 3) Geometric interpretations of the obtained analytical conditions are given.

The bubble tree compactified instanton moduli space -Mκ （X） is introduced. Its singularity set Singκ（X） is described. By the standard gluing theory, one can show that- Mκ（X） - Singκ（X） is a topological orbifold. In this paper, we give an argument to construct smooth structures on it.     

Boundedness and compactness of the embedding between spaces with multiweighted derivatives when 1 ⩽ <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis> < <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> < ∞

We consider a new Sobolev type function space called the space with multiweighted derivatives $ W_{p,\bar \alpha }^n $ W_{p,\bar \alpha }^n , where $ \bar \alpha $ \bar \alpha = (α ₀, α ₁,…, α _n ), α _i ∈ ℝ, i = 0, 1,…, n, and $ \left\| f \right\|W_{p,\bar \alpha }^n = \left\| {D_{\bar \alpha }^n f} \right\|_p + \sum\limits_{i = 0}^{n - 1} {\left| {D_{\bar \alpha }^i f(1)} \right|} $ \left\| f \right\|W_{p,\bar \alpha }^n = \left\| {D_{\bar \alpha }^n f} \right\|_p + \sum\limits_{i = 0}^{n - 1} {\left| {D_{\bar \alpha }^i f(1)} \right|} ,

On the homology groups of arrangements of complex planes of codimension two

In the study of two-dimensional compact toric varieties, there naturally appears a set of coordinate planes of codimension two $ Z = {*{20}c} \cup \\ {1 < \left| {i - j} \right| < d - 1} \\ \{ z_i = z_j = 0\} $ Z = \begin{array}{*{20}c} \cup \\ {1 < \left| {i - j} \right| < d - 1} \\ \end{array} \{ z_i = z_j = 0\} in ℂ ^d . Based on the Alexander-Pontryagin duality theory, we construct a cycle that is dual to the generator of the highest dimensional nontrivial homology group of the complement in ℂ ^d of the set of planes Z. We explicitly describe cycles that generate groups H _d+2(ℂ ^d \ Z) and H _d−3($ \bar Z $ \bar Z ), where $ \bar Z $ \bar Z = Z ∪ {∞}.     

Transient phenomena for random walks in the absence of the expected value of jumps

Let ξ, ξ₁, ξ₂, ... be independent identically distributed random variables, and S _n :=Σ _j=1 ⁿ ,ξ _j , $ \bar S $ \bar S := sup _n≥0 S _n . If Eξ = −a < 0 then we call transient those phenomena that happen to the distribution $ \bar S $ \bar S as a → 0 and $ \bar S $ \bar S tends to infinity in probability. We consider the case when Eξ fails to exist and study transient phenomena as a → 0 for the following two random walk models:

Asymptotic property of approximation to x αsgn x by Newman Type Operators

Approximation to the function ｜x｜ plays an important role in approximation theory. This paper studies the approximation to the function xαsgn x, which equals ｜x｜ if α = 1. We construct a Newman Type Operator rn（x） and prove max ｜x｜≤1｜xαsgn x-rn（x）｜～Cn1/4e-π1/2（1/2）αn.     

A note on asymptotics of linear combinations of iid random variables

Let X₁,X₂, ... be iid random variables, and let a _n = (a ₁,n, ..., a _n,n ) be an arbitrary sequence of weights. We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the linear combination $ S_{a_n } $ S_{a_n } = a _1,n X ₁ + ... + a _n,n X _n under the natural negligibility condition lim _n→∞ max{|a _k,n |: k = 1, ..., n} = 0. We prove that if $ S_{a_n } $ S_{a_n } is asymptotically normal for a weight sequence a _n , in which the components are of the same magnitude, then the common distribution belongs to $ \mathbb{D} $ \mathbb{D} (2).     

Imaginary powers of a Laguerre differential operator

Imaginary powers associated to the Laguerre differential operator $ L_\alpha = - \Delta + |x|^2 + \sum _{i = 1}^d \frac{1} {{x_i^2 }}(\alpha _i^2 - 1/4) $ L_\alpha = - \Delta + |x|^2 + \sum _{i = 1}^d \frac{1} {{x_i^2 }}(\alpha _i^2 - 1/4) are investigated. It is proved that for every multi-index α = (α₁,...α _d ) such that α _i ≧ −1/2, α _i ∉ (−1/2, 1/2), the imaginary powers $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } ,\gamma \in \mathbb{R} $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } ,\gamma \in \mathbb{R} , of a self-adjoint extension of L _α, are Calderón-Zygmund operators. Consequently, mapping properties of $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } follow by the general theory.     

Convergence rates of the LIL for random fields in Hilbert spaces

Considering the positive d-dimensional lattice point Z ₊ ^d (d ≥ 2) with partial ordering ≤, let {X _k: k ∈ Z ₊ ^d } be i.i.d. random variables taking values in a real separable Hilbert space (H, ‖ · ‖) with mean zero and covariance operator Σ, and set $ S_n = \sum\limits_{k \leqslant n} {X_k } $ S_n = \sum\limits_{k \leqslant n} {X_k } , n ∈ Z ₊ ^d . Let σ _i ², i ≥ 1, be the eigenvalues of Σ arranged in the non-increasing order and taking into account the multiplicities. Let l be the dimension of the corresponding eigenspace, and denote the largest eigenvalue of Σ by σ ². Let logx = ln(x ∨ e), x ≥ 0. This paper studies the convergence rates for $ \sum\limits_n {\frac{{\left( {\log \log \left| n \right|} \right)^b }} {{\left| n \right|\log \left| n \right|}}} P\left( {\left\| {S_n } \right\| \geqslant \sigma \varepsilon \sqrt {2\left| n \right|\log \log \left| n \right|} } \right) $ \sum\limits_n {\frac{{\left( {\log \log \left| n \right|} \right)^b }} {{\left| n \right|\log \left| n \right|}}} P\left( {\left\| {S_n } \right\| \geqslant \sigma \varepsilon \sqrt {2\left| n \right|\log \log \left| n \right|} } \right) . We show that when l ≥ 2 and b > −l/2, E[‖X‖²(log ‖X‖) ^d−2(log log ‖X‖) ^b+4] < ∞ implies $ \begin{gathered} \mathop {\lim }\limits_{\varepsilon \searrow \sqrt {d - 1} } (\varepsilon ^2 - d + 1)^{b + l/2} \sum\limits_n {\frac{{\left( {\log \log \left| n \right|} \right)^b }} {{\left| n \right|\log \left| n \right|}}P\left( {\left\| {S_n } \right\| \geqslant \sigma \varepsilon \sqrt 2 \left| n \right|\log \log \left| n \right|} \right)} \hfill \\ = \frac{{K(\Sigma )(d - 1)^{\frac{{l - 2}} {2}} \Gamma (b + l/2)}} {{\Gamma (l/2)(d - 1)!}} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $ \begin{gathered} \mathop {\lim }\limits_{\varepsilon \searrow \sqrt {d - 1} } (\varepsilon ^2 - d + 1)^{b + l/2} \sum\limits_n {\frac{{\left( {\log \log \left| n \right|} \right)^b }} {{\left| n \right|\log \left| n \right|}}P\left( {\left\| {S_n } \right\| \geqslant \sigma \varepsilon \sqrt 2 \left| n \right|\log \log \left| n \right|} \right)} \hfill \\ = \frac{{K(\Sigma )(d - 1)^{\frac{{l - 2}} {2}} \Gamma (b + l/2)}} {{\Gamma (l/2)(d - 1)!}} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} , where Γ(·) is the Gamma function and $ \prod\limits_{i = l + 1}^\infty {((\sigma ^2 - \sigma _i^2 )/\sigma ^2 )^{ - {1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} } $ \prod\limits_{i = l + 1}^\infty {((\sigma ^2 - \sigma _i^2 )/\sigma ^2 )^{ - {1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} } .     

Strict topology over the space of measures with continuous translations on a locally compact foundation semigroup

Let $ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} be a locally compact semigroup, ω be a weight function on $ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , and M _a ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω) be the weighted semigroup algebra of $ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} . Let L ₀^∞ ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} ; M _a ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω)) be the C*-algebra of all M _a ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω)-measurable functions g on $ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} such that g/ω vanishes at infinity. We introduce and study a strict topology β ¹($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω) on M _a ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω) and show that the Banach space L ₀^∞ ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} ; M _a ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω)) can be identified with the dual of M _a ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω) endowed with β ¹($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω). We finally investigate some properties of the locally convex topology β ¹($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω) on M _a ($ \mathfrak{S} $ \mathfrak{S} , ω).     

Wavelet approximation and Fourier widths of classes of periodic functions of several variables. I

We obtain characterizations (and prove the corresponding equivalence of norms) of function spaces B _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) and L _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) of Nikol’skii-Besov and Lizorkin-Triebel types, respectively, in terms of representations of functions in these spaces by Fourier series with respect to a multiple system $ \mathcal{W}_m^\mathbb{I} $ \mathcal{W}_m^\mathbb{I} of Meyer wavelets and in terms of sequences of the Fourier coefficients with respect to this system. We establish order-sharp estimates for the approximation of functions in B _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ) and L _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) by special partial sums of these series in the metric of L _r ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) for a number of relations between the parameters s, p, q, r, and m (s = (s ₁, ..., s _n ) ∈ ℝ₊ ⁿ , 1 ≤ p, q, r ≤ ∞, m = (m ₁, ..., m _n ) ∈ ℕ ⁿ , k = m ₁ +... + m _n , and $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} = ℝ or $ \mathbb{T} $ \mathbb{T} ). In the periodic case, we study the Fourier widths of these function classes.

In this paper using δ-quasi-monotone sequences a theorem on summability factors of infinite series, which generalizes a theorem of Bor [4] on summability factors of infinite series, is proved. Also, in the special case this theorem includes a result of Mazhar [8] on |C, 1|_k summability factors.     

Deforming the Lie superalgebra of contact vector fields on <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript>1|2</Superscript> inside the Lie superalgebra of pseudodifferential operators on <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript>1|2</Superscript>

We classify deformations of the standard embedding of the Lie superalgebra $ \mathcal{K} $ \mathcal{K} (2) of contact vector fields on the (1, 2)-dimensional supercircle into the Lie superalgebra SΨD(S ^1|2 ) of pseudodifferential operators on the supercircle S ^1|2 . The proposed approach leads to the deformations of the central charge induced on $ \mathcal{K} $ \mathcal{K} (2) by the canonical central extension of SΨD(S ^1|2 ).     

Problem of the first passage time for <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic diffusion

This work is a continuation of paper [1], where was considered analog of the problem of the first return for ultrametric diffusion. The main result of this paper consists in construction and investigation of stochastic quantity $ \tau _{B_r (a)} $ \tau _{B_r (a)} (ω), which has meaning of the first passage time into domain B _r (a) by trajectories of the Markov stochastic process ζ(t, ω).Markov stochastic process is given by distribution density f(x, t), x ∈ ℚ _p , t ∈ R ₊, which is solution of the Cauchy problem

On $$ \mathfrak{F}_h $$-normal subgroups of finite groups

Let G be a finite group, and let $ \mathfrak{F} $ \mathfrak{F} be a formation of finite groups. We say that a subgroup H of G is $ \mathfrak{F}_h $ \mathfrak{F}_h -normal in G if there exists a normal subgroup T of G such that HT is a normal Hall subgroup of G and (H ∩ T)H _G /H _G is contained in the $ \mathfrak{F} $ \mathfrak{F} -hypercenter $ Z_\infty ^\mathfrak{F} $ Z_\infty ^\mathfrak{F} (G/H _G ) of G/H _G . In this paper, we obtain some results about the $ \mathfrak{F}_h $ \mathfrak{F}_h -normal subgroups and then use them to study the structure of finite groups.     

Generalized three-point difference schemes of high-order accuracy for systems of second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations

For systems of second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equations with the Dirichlet boundary conditions, we develop generalized three-point difference schemes of high-order accuracy on a nonuniform grid. The construction of the suggested schemes requires solving four auxiliary Cauchy problems (two problems for systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations and two problems for matrix linear ordinary differential equations) on the intervals [x _j−1, x _j ] (forward) and [x _j , x _j+1] (backward) at each grid point; this is done at each step by any single-step method of accuracy order $ \bar m $ \bar m = 2[(m+1)/2]. (Here m is a given positive integer, and [·] is the integer part of a number.) We prove that such three-point difference schemes have the accuracy order $ \bar m $ \bar m for the approximation to both the solution u of the boundary value problem and the flux K(x)d u/dx at the grid points.
