On a Test Statistic for Linear Trend

Let {W(s)} _s 0 be a standard Wiener process. The supremum of the squared Euclidian norm Y (t)², of the R²-valued process Y(t)=(1/t W(t), {12/t ³ int_{0 t} s dW (s)– {3/t} W(t)), t [, 1], is the asymptotic, large sample distribution, of a test statistic for a change point detection problem, of appearance of linear trend. We determine the asymptotic behavior P {sup _t [, 1] Y(t)² > u as u , of this statistic, for a fixed (0,1), and for a moving = (u) 0 at a suitable rate as u . The statistical interest of our results lie in their use as approximate test levels.     

Computational complexity of the integration problem for anisotropic classes

We determine the exact order of -complexity of the numerical integration problem for the anisotropic class W^r(I^d) and H^r(I^d) with respect to the worst case randomized methods and the average case deterministic methods. We prove this result by developing a decomposition technique of Borel measure on unit cube of d-dimensional Euclidean space. Moreover by the imbedding relationship between function classes we extend our results to the classes of functions W_p(I^d) and H_p(I^d). By the way we highlight some typical results and stress the importance of some open problems related to the complexity of numerical integration.

Existence and construction of Δ1-splines of class Ck on a three-directional mesh

Let ^* be the equilateral triangulation of the plane and let ₁ ^* be the equilateral triangle formed by four triangles of ^*. We study the space of piecewise polynomial functions in C ^k (R ²) with support ₁ ^*, having a sufficiently high degree n and which are invariant with respect to the group of symmetries of ₁ ^*. Such splines are called ₁ ^*-splines. We first compute the dimension of this space in function of n and k. Then, for any fixed k0, we prove the existence of ₁ ^*-splines of class C ^k and minimal degree, but these splines are not unique. Finally, we describe an algorithm computing the Bernstein–Bézier coefficients of these splines.     

A Note on μ(Z)-homeomorphisms

This paper is a continuation work of the authors on (z)-homeomorphisms. We establish similar relationships between quasisymmetric function and dilatation function as in quasiconformal mappings under (z)-homeomorphisms. Furthermore, a weighted quasiisometric inequality is presented.AMS Subject Classification (1991) 30C62 30C65     

C k -B-splines with Square Support on a Three-Direction Mesh of the Plane

Let be the uniform triangulation generated by the usual three-directional mesh of the plane and let ₁ be the unit square consisting of two triangles of . We study the space of piecewise polynomial functions in C ^k (R ²) with support ₁ having a sufficiently high degree n, which are symmetrical with respect to the first diagonal of ₁. Such splines are called ₁-splines. We first compute the dimension of this space in function of n and k. Then, for any fixed k0, we prove the existence of ₁-splines of class C ^k and minimal degree. These splines are not unique. Finally, we describe an algorithm computing the Bernstein–Bézier coefficients of these splines, and we give an example.

On the unique finite (SI) decomposition of the Jordan operator ⊕ i=1 n S(θ) for certain inner function θ

In this paper, we have proven that for the Jordan blockS() withS() (SI), _i=1 ⁿ S() =S() ⁽ⁿ⁾ (n 1) has unique finite (SI) decomposition up to a similarity. As result, we obtain that ifV is a Volterra operator onH=L ²([0, 1]), thenV ⁽ⁿ⁾ has unique finite (SI) decomposition.This project was supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China.     

A Generalized Double Crossproduct and Drinfeld Double

In this paper we construct a new and more complicated algebra construction of two algebras B and H, a generalized double crossproduct B H. The left generalized smash product, the right generalized smash product, Majids double crossproduct, especially, the smash product, the Drinfeld Double D(H) and Doi-Takeuchi algebra B H are all special cases as our algebra structure. Next, we analyze conditions under which this new algebra B H is a Hopf algebra termed a generalized double crossproduct of Hopf algebra, and describe a coquasitriangular structure over the generalized double crossproduct Hopf algebra B H. Finally, what we do is to construct a new braided monoidal category ^J_JMod^Q_Q obtained from the structure of the generalized double crossproduct, and establish a kind of new quantum Yang-Baxter operators.AMS Subject Classification (1991): 16W20, 16D90, 16S40, 16W30     

Sensitivity analysis of the greatest eigenvalue of a symmetric matrix via the ɛ-subdifferential of the associated convex quadratic form

LetA(·) be ann × n symmetric affine matrix-valued function of a parameteruR ^m , and let (u) be the greatest eigenvalue ofA(u). Recently, there has been interest in calculating (u), the subdifferential of atu, which is useful for both the construction of efficient algorithms for the minimization of (u) and the sensitivity analysis of (u), namely, the perturbation theory of (u). In this paper, more generally, we investigate the Legendre-Fenchel conjugate function of (·) and the -subdifferential (u) of atu. Then, we discuss relations between the set (u) and some perturbation bounds for (u).The author is deeply indebted to Professor J. B. Hiriart-Urruty who suggested this study and provided helpful advice and constant encouragement. The author also thanks the referees and the editors for their substantial help in the improvement of this paper.

A r (Ω)-Weighted Imbedding Inequalities for A-Harmonic Tensors

We prove the basic A _r ()-weighted imbedding inequalities for A-harmonic tensors. These results can be used to estimate the integrals for A-harmonic tensors and to study the integrability of A-harmonic tensors and the properties of the homotopy operator T: C (D, ^l )C (D, ^l–1).     

Cardinal Invariants of λ-Topologies

We study the basic cardinal-valued invariants of C (X) such as weight, density, network weight, i-weight, and tightness, where C (X) is the space of all continuous real functions on X in the -topology.     

K-theory of reduced C*-algebras and rapidly decreasing functions on groups

We associate to any length function L on a group a space of rapidly decreasing functions on (in the l ² sense), denoted by H _L (). When H _L () is contained in the reduced C*-algebra C _r ^* () of (), then it is a dense *-subalgebra of C _r ^* () and we prove a theorem of A. Connes which asserts that under this hypothesis H _L () has the same K-theory as C _r ^* (). We introduce another space of rapidly decreasing functions on (in the l ¹ sense), denoted by H _L ^1, (), which is always a dense *-subalgebra of the Banach algebra l ¹(), and we show that H _L ^1, () has the same K-theory as l ¹().

IfA andB are two bounded domains in _n and (A), (B) are the lowest eigenvalues of – with Dirichlet boundary conditions then there is some translate,B _x, ofB such that (AB _x)<(A)+(B). A similar inequality holds for .There are two corollaries of this theorem: (i) A lower bound for sup _x {volume (AB _x)} in terms of (A), whenB is a ball; (ii) A compactness lemma for certain sequences inW ^1,p ( _n ).Work partially supported by U.S. National Science Foundation grant PHY-8116101 A01.

On Compensated Compactness for Nonlinear Elliptic Problems in Perforated Domains

We consider a sequence of Dirichlet problems for a nonlinear divergent operator A: W _m ¹( _s ) [W _m ¹( _s )]^* in a sequence of perforated domains _s . Under a certain condition imposed on the local capacity of the set \ _s , we prove the following principle of compensated compactness: , where r _s(x) and z _s(x) are sequences weakly convergent in W _m ¹() and such that r _s(x) is an analog of a corrector for a homogenization problem and z _s(x) is an arbitrary sequence from whose weak limit is equal to zero.     

An infinite dimensional analogue of the Albeverio-Röckner's theorem on Fukushima's conjecture

LetX be the solution of the SDE:dX _t = (X _t)dB _t +b(X _t)dt, with andb C _b (R) such that >0 for some constant , andB a real Brownian motion. Let be the law ofX onE=C([0, 1],R) andk E* – {0}, whereE* is the topological dual space ofE. Consider the classical form: _k (u, v)=u / kv / kd, whereu andv are smooth functions onE. We prove that, if _k is closable for anyk in a dense subset ofE* and if the smooth functions are contained in the domain of the generator of the closure of _k , must be a constant function.     

The Hilbert–Poincaré Series for Some Algebras of Invariants of Cyclic Groups

Let be a linear representation of a finite group over a field of characteristic 0. Further, let R be the corresponding algebra of invariants, and let P (t) be its Hilbert–Poincaré series. Then the series P (t) represents a rational function (t)/(t). If R is a complete intersection, then (t) is a product of cyclotomic polynomials. Here we prove the inverse statement for the case where is an almost regular (in particular, regular) representation of a cyclic group. This yields an answer to a question of R.

We consider the (&, )-fragment of the intuitionistic propositional calculus. It is proved that under the standard transformation of a Gentzen derivation into a natural derivation(), the length of (())2^2·length( ). There is constructed a sequence of Gentzen derivations of length _i, for which the length of (( _i))2^{1/3·length(i}), which shows that the upper bound obtained is not too weak.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Stability for Quadratic K1

The general quadratic group GQ _2n and its elementary subgroup EQ _2n are analogs in the theory of quadratic forms of the general linear group GL _n and its elementary subgroup E _n . This article proves that the stabilization map GQ _2n /EQ _2n GQ _2(n+1) /EQ _2(n+1) is an isomorphism whenever n +1 and S denotes the -stable rank of rings with anti-involution. As a corollary, a result is obtained which has been anticipated since the late 1960s: over rings of finite Bass–Serre dimension d, the stabilization map is an isomorphism whenever n d + 2.     

Radical Classes of Lattice-Ordered Groups vs. Classes of Compact Spaces

For a given class T of compact Hausdorff spaces, let Y(T) denote the class of -groups G such that for each gG, the Yosida space Y(g) of g belongs to T. Conversely, if R is a class of ;-groups, then T(R) stands for the class of all spaces which are homeomorphic to a Y(g) for some gGR. The correspondences TY(T) and RT(R) are examined with regard to several closure properties of classes. Several sections are devoted to radical classes of -groups whose Yosida spaces are zero-dimensional. There is a thorough discussion of hyper-projectable -groups, followed by presentations on Y(e.d.), where e.d. denotes the class of compact extremally disconnected spaces, and, for each regular uncountable cardinal , the class Y(disc), where disc stands for the class of all compact -disconnected spaces. Sample results follow. Every strongly projectable -group lies in Y(e.d.). The -group G lies in Y(e.d.) if and only if for each gG Y(g) is zero-dimensional and the Boolean algebra of components of g, comp(g), is complete. Corresponding results hold for Y(disc). Finally, there is a discussion of Y(F), with F standing for the class of compact F-spaces. It is shown that an Archimedean -group G is in Y(F) if and only if, for each pair of disjoint countably generated polars P and Q, G=P +Q .
