On the homotopy type of (<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-1)-connected (3<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>+1)-dimensional free chain Lie algebra

Let R be a subring ring of Q. We reserve the symbol p for the least prime which is not a unit in R; if R ?Q, then p=∞. Denote by DGL _n ^np , n≥1, the category of (n-1)-connected np-dimensional differential graded free Lie algebras over R. In [1] D. Anick has shown that there is a reasonable concept of homotopy in the category DGL _n ^np . In this work we intend to answer the following two questions: Given an object (L(V), ?) in DGL _n ³ⁿ⁺² and denote by S(L(V), ?) the class of objects homotopy equivalent to (L(V), ?). How we can characterize a free dgl to belong to S(L(V), ?)? Fix an object (L(V), ?) in DGL _n ³ⁿ⁺² . How many homotopy equivalence classes of objects (L(W), δ) in DGL _n ³ⁿ⁺² such that H _* (W, d′)?H _* (V, d) are there? Note that DGL _n ³ⁿ⁺² is a subcategory of DGL _n ^np when p>3. Our tool to address this problem is the exact sequence of Whitehead associated with a free dgl.     

Geometric Realizations of Lusztig’s Symmetries of Symmetrizable Quantum Groups

Let U be the quantum group and f be the Lusztig’s algebra associated with a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix. The algebra f can be viewed as the positive part of U. Lusztig introduced some symmetries T _i on U for all i ∈ I. Since T _i (f) is not contained in f, Lusztig considered two subalgebras _i f and ⁱ f of f for any i ∈ I, where _i f={x ∈ f | T _i (x) ∈ f} and \({^{i}\mathbf {f}}=\{x\in \mathbf {f}\,\,|\,\,T^{-1}_{i}(x)\in \mathbf {f}\}\). The restriction of T _i on _i f is also denoted by \(T_{i}:{_{i}\mathbf {f}}\rightarrow {^{i}\mathbf {f}}\). The geometric realization of f and its canonical basis are introduced by Lusztig via some semisimple complexes on the variety consisting of representations of the corresponding quiver. When the generalized Cartan matrix is symmetric, Xiao and Zhao gave geometric realizations of Lusztig’s symmetries in the sense of Lusztig. In this paper, we shall generalize this result and give geometric realizations of _i f, ⁱ f and \(T_{i}:{_{i}\mathbf {f}}\rightarrow {^{i}\mathbf {f}}\) by using the language ’quiver with automorphism’ introduced by Lusztig.     

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic order of some fibonomial coefficients whose entries are powers of <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>

Let (F _n ) _n≥0 be the Fibonacci sequence. For 1 ≤ k ≤ m, the Fibonomial coefficient is defined as

$${\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} m \\ k \end{array}} \right]_F} = \frac{{{F_{m - k + 1}} \cdots {F_{m - 1}}{F_m}}}{{{F_1} \cdots {F_k}}}$$

. In 2013, Marques, Sellers and Trojovský proved that if p is a prime number such that p ≡ ±2 (mod 5), then \(p{\left| {\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]} \right._F}\) for all integers a ≥ 1. In 2015, Marques and Trojovský worked on the p-adic order of \({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_F}\) for all a ≥ 1 when p ≠ 5. In this paper, we shall provide the exact p-adic order of \({\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{p^{a + 1}}} \\ {{p^a}} \end{array}} \right]_F}\) for all integers a, b ≥ 1 and for all prime number p.

     

Endomorphism Algebras of 2-term Silting Complexes

We study possible values of the global dimension of endomorphism algebras of 2-term silting complexes. We show that for any algebra A whose global dimension gl.dim A ≤ 2 and any 2-term silting complex P in the bounded derived category D ^b (A) of A, the global dimension of \(\text {End}_{{D^b(A)}}(\mathbf {P})\) is at most 7. We also show that for each n > 2, there is an algebra A with gl.dim A = n such that D ^b (A) admits a 2-term silting complex P with \(\mathrm {gl. dim~}\text {End}_{{D^b(A)}}(\mathbf {P})\) infinite.     

Continuous wavelets on compact manifolds

Let M be a smooth compact oriented Riemannian manifold, and let Δ _M be the Laplace–Beltrami operator on M. Say \({0 \neq f \in \mathcal{S}(\mathbb {R}^+)}\) , and that f (0)  =  0. For t  >  0, let K _t (x, y) denote the kernel of f (t ² Δ _M ). We show that K _t is well-localized near the diagonal, in the sense that it satisfies estimates akin to those satisfied by the kernel of the convolution operator f (t ²Δ) on \({\mathbb {R}^n}\) . We define continuous \({\mathcal {S}}\)-wavelets on M, in such a manner that K _t (x, y) satisfies this definition, because of its localization near the diagonal. Continuous \({\mathcal {S}}\)-wavelets on M are analogous to continuous wavelets on \({\mathbb {R}^n}\) in \({\mathcal {S}}\) (\({\mathbb {R}^n}\)). In particular, we are able to characterize the Hölder continuous functions on M by the size of their continuous \({\mathcal {S}}\)-wavelet transforms, for Hölder exponents strictly between 0 and 1. If M is the torus \({\mathbb T^2}\) or the sphere S ², and f (s)  =  se ^?s (the “Mexican hat” situation), we obtain two explicit approximate formulas for K _t , one to be used when t is large, and one to be used when t is small.     

Asymptotic Analysis for Random Walks with Nonidentically Distributed Jumps Having Finite Variance

Let ξ₁,ξ₂,... be independent random variables with distributions F₁F₂,... in a triangular array scheme (F _i may depend on some parameter). Assume that Eξ _i = 0, Eξ _i ² < ∞, and put \(S_n = \sum {_{i = 1}^n \;} \xi _i ,\;\overline S _n = \max _{k \leqslant n} S_k\). Assuming further that some regularly varying functions majorize or minorize the “averaged” distribution \(F = \frac{1}{n}\sum {_{i = 1}^n F_i }\), we find upper and lower bounds for the probabilities P(S _n > x) and \(P(\bar S_n > x)\). We also study the asymptotics of these probabilities and of the probabilities that a trajectory {S _k } crosses the remote boundary {g(k)}; that is, the asymptotics of P(max_k≤n(S _k ? g(k)) > 0). The case n = ∞ is not excluded. We also estimate the distribution of the first crossing time.     

Rational frames of minimal twist along space curves under specified boundary conditions

An adapted orthonormal frame (f₁(ξ),f₂(ξ),f₃(ξ)) on a space curve r(ξ), ξ ∈ [ 0, 1 ] comprises the curve tangent \(\mathbf {f}_{1}(\xi ) =\mathbf {r}^{\prime }(\xi )/|\mathbf {r}^{\prime }(\xi )|\) and two unit vectors f₂(ξ),f₃(ξ) that span the normal plane. The variation of this frame is specified by its angular velocity Ω = Ω₁f₁ + Ω₂f₂ + Ω₃f₃, and the twist of the framed curve is the integral of the component Ω₁ with respect to arc length. A minimal twist frame (MTF) has the least possible twist value, subject to prescribed initial and final orientations f₂(0),f₃(0) and f₂(1),f₃(1) of the normal–plane vectors. Employing the Euler–Rodrigues frame (ERF) — a rational adapted frame defined on spatial Pythagorean–hodograph curves — as an intermediary, an exact expression for an MTF with Ω₁ = constant is derived. However, since this involves rather complicated transcendental terms, a construction of rational MTFs is proposed by the imposition of a rational rotation on the ERF normal–plane vectors. For spatial PH quintics, it is shown that rational MTFs compatible with the boundary conditions can be constructed, with only modest deviations of Ω₁ about the mean value, by a rational quartic normal–plane rotation of the ERF. If necessary, subdivision methods can be invoked to ensure that the rational MTF is free of inflections, or to more accurately approximate a constant Ω₁. The procedure is summarized by an algorithm outline, and illustrated by a representative selection of computed examples.     

Some <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> Rigidity Results for Complete Manifolds with Harmonic Curvature

Let (M ⁿ , g)(n ≥ 3) be an n-dimensional complete Riemannian manifold with harmonic curvature and positive Yamabe constant. Denote by R and R m? the scalar curvature and the trace-free Riemannian curvature tensor of M, respectively. The main result of this paper states that R m? goes to zero uniformly at infinity if for \(p\geq \frac n2\), the L ^p -norm of R m? is finite. Moreover, If R is positive, then (M ⁿ , g) is compact. As applications, we prove that (M ⁿ , g) is isometric to a spherical space form if for \(p\geq \frac n2\), R is positive and the L ^p -norm of R m? is pinched in [0, C ₁), where C ₁ is an explicit positive constant depending only on n, p, R and the Yamabe constant. We give an isolation theorem of the trace-free Ricci curvature tensor of compact locally conformally flat Riemannian n-manifolds with constant positive scalar curvature, which extends Theorem 1 of Hebey and M. Vaugon (J. Geom. Anal. 6, 531–553, 1996). This result is sharp, and we can precisely characterize the case of equality. In particular, when n = 4, we recover results by Gursky (Indiana Univ. Math. J. 43, 747–774, 1994; Ann. Math. 148, 315–337, 1998).     

Characterization of 2-Local Derivations and Local Lie Derivations on Some Algebras

We prove that each 2-local derivation from the algebra M_n(A ) (n > 2) into its bimodule M_n(M) is a derivation, where A is a unital Banach algebra and M is a unital A -bimodule such that each Jordan derivation from A into M is an inner derivation, and that each 2-local derivation on a C*-algebra with a faithful traceable representation is a derivation. We also characterize local and 2-local Lie derivations on some algebras such as von Neumann algebras, nest algebras, the Jiang–Su algebra, and UHF algebras.     

Order of magnitude of multiple Fourier coefficients of functions of bounded <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-variation

For a Lebesgue integrable complex-valued function f defined over the n-dimensional torus \(\mathbb{T}^n \):= [0, 2π) ⁿ , let \(\hat f\)(k) denote the Fourier coefficient of f, where k = (k ₁, … k _n ) ∈ ? ⁿ . In this paper, defining the notion of bounded p-variation (p ≧ 1) for a function from [0, 2π] ⁿ to ? in two diffierent ways, the order of magnitude of Fourier coefficients of such functions is studied. As far as the order of magnitude is concerned, our results with p = 1 give the results of Móricz [5] and Fülöp and Móricz [3].     

Derivative at s = 1 of the p-adic L-function of the symmetric square of a Hilbert modular form

Let p ≥ 3 be a prime and F a totally real number field. Let f be a Hilbert cuspidal eigenform of parallel weight 2, trivial Nebentypus and ordinary at p. It is possible to construct a p-adic L function which interpolates the complex L-function associated with the symmetric square representation of f. This p-adic L-function vanishes at s = 1 even if the complex L-function does not. Assuming p inert and f Steinberg at p, we give a formula for the p-adic derivative at s = 1 of this p-adic L-function, generalizing unpublished work of Greenberg and Tilouine. Under some hypotheses on the conductor of f we prove a particular case of a conjecture of Greenberg on trivial zeros.     

Searching for a Best Least Absolute Deviations Solution of an Overdetermined System of Linear Equations Motivated by Searching for a Best Least Absolute Deviations Hyperplane on the Basis of Given Data

We consider the problem of searching for a best LAD-solution of an overdetermined system of linear equations Xa=z, X∈?^m×n, m≥n, \(\mathbf{a}\in \mathbb{R}^{n}, \mathbf {z}\in\mathbb{R}^{m}\). This problem is equivalent to the problem of determining a best LAD-hyperplane x?a ^T x, x∈? ⁿ on the basis of given data \((\mathbf{x}_{i},z_{i}), \mathbf{x}_{i}= (x_{1}^{(i)},\ldots,x_{n}^{(i)})^{T}\in \mathbb{R}^{n}, z_{i}\in\mathbb{R}, i=1,\ldots,m\), whereby the minimizing functional is of the form

$F(\mathbf{a})=\|\mathbf{z}-\mathbf{Xa}\|_1=\sum_{i=1}^m|z_i-\mathbf {a}^T\mathbf{x}_i|.$

An iterative procedure is constructed as a sequence of weighted median problems, which gives the solution in finitely many steps. A criterion of optimality follows from the fact that the minimizing functional F is convex, and therefore the point a ^?∈? ⁿ is the point of a global minimum of the functional F if and only if 0∈?F(a ^?).

Motivation for the construction of the algorithm was found in a geometrically visible algorithm for determining a best LAD-plane (x,y)?αx+βy, passing through the origin of the coordinate system, on the basis of the data (x _i ,y _i ,z _i ),i=1,…,m.     

Hochschild Cohomology of Deformation Quantizations over ℤ/<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>ℤ

Let A ₁ be an Azumaya algebra over a smooth affine symplectic variety X over Spec F _p , where p is an odd prime. Let A be a deformation quantization of A ₁ over the p-adic integers. In this note we show that for all n ≥ 1, the Hochschild cohomology of A/p ⁿ A is isomorphic to the de Rham-Witt complex \(W_{n}{\Omega }^{\ast }_{X}\) of X over \(\mathbb {Z}/p^{n}\mathbb {Z}\). We also compute the center of deformations of certain affine Poisson varieties over F _p .     

Weak module amenability of triangular Banach algebras

Let A and B be unital Banach algebras and let M be a unital Banach A,B-module. Forrest and Marcoux [6] have studied the weak amenability of triangular Banach algebra \(\mathcal{T} = \left[ {_B^{AM} } \right]\) and showed that T is weakly amenable if and only if the corner algebras A and B are weakly amenable. When \(\mathfrak{A}\) is a Banach algebra and A and B are Banach \(\mathfrak{A}\)-module with compatible actions, and M is a commutative left Banach \(\mathfrak{A}\)-A-module and right Banach \(\mathfrak{A}\)-B-module, we show that A and B are weakly \(\mathfrak{A}\)-module amenable if and only if triangular Banach algebra T is weakly \(\mathfrak{T}\)-module amenable, where \(\mathfrak{T}: = \{ [^\alpha _\alpha ]:\alpha \in \mathfrak{A}\} \).     

Bimodule and twisted representation of vertex operator algebras

In this paper, for a vertex operator algebra V with an automorphism g of order T, an admissible V-module M and a fixed nonnegative rational number n ∈1/T Z_+, we construct an A_(g,n)(V)-bimodule Ag,n(M) and study its properties, discuss the connections between bimodule A_(g,n)(M) and intertwining operators. Especially, bimodule A _(g,n)-1T(M) is a natural quotient of A_(g,n)(M) and there is a linear isomorphism between the space IM~k M Mjof intertwining operators and the space of homomorphisms HomA_(g,n)(V)(A_(g,n)(M)  A_(g,n)(V)M~j(s), M~k(t)) for s, t ≤ n, M~j, M~k are g-twisted V modules, if V is g-rational.     

Generalized fractional integrals in <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic morrey and Herz spaces

For Riesz potential I ^β (f) on p-adic linear space Q _p ⁿ and its modification \(\widetilde{I^\beta }(f)\) we give sufficient conditions of their boundedness from radialMorrey space to anotherMorrey or Campanato space. Also we study the boundedness of modified Riesz potential \(\widetilde{I^\beta }(f)\) from Herz space to special Campanato spaces.     

Asymptotics of the Codimensions <Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Subscript> in the Algebra <Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis><Superscript>(7)</Superscript>

The paper studies the additive structure of the algebra F⁽⁷⁾, i.e., a relatively free associative countably generated algebra with the identity [x₁,..., x₇] = 0 over an infinite field of characteristic ≠ 2, 3. First, the space of proper multilinear polynomials in this algebra is investigated. As an application, estimates for the codimensions c_n = dimF_n⁽⁷⁾ are obtained, where F_n⁽⁷⁾ stands for the subspace of multilinear polynomials of degree n in the algebra F⁽⁷⁾.     

On Linear Preservers of Two-Sided Gut-Majorization On <Emphasis Type="Bold">M</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis></Subscript>

For X, Y ∈ M_n,m it is said that X is gut-majorized by Y, and we write X ?_gutY, if there exists an n-by-n upper triangular g-row stochastic matrix R such that X = RY. Define the relation ~_gut as follows. X ~_gutY if X is gut-majorized by Y and Y is gut-majorized by X. The (strong) linear preservers of ?_gut on ?ⁿ and strong linear preservers of this relation on M_n,m have been characterized before. This paper characterizes all (strong) linear preservers and strong linear preservers of ~_gut on ?ⁿ and M_n,m.     

Phragmén-Lindelöf Theorems and p-harmonic Measures for Sets Near Low-dimensional Hyperplanes

We prove estimates of a p-harmonic measure, p∈(n?m,∞], for sets in Rⁿ which are close to an m-dimensional hyperplane Λ?Rⁿ, m∈[0,n?1]. Using these estimates, we derive results of Phragmén-Lindelöf type in unbounded domains Ω?Rⁿ?Λ for p-subharmonic functions. Moreover, we give local and global growth estimates for p-harmonic functions, vanishing on sets in Rⁿ, which are close to an m-dimensional hyperplane.
