On integrality of Eisenstein liftings

Letf be a holomorphic Siegel modular form of integral weightk for Sp_2r (Z). Forn≥r, let[f] _r ⁿ be the lift off to Sp_2n (Z) via the Klingen type Eisenstein series, which is defined under some conditions onk. We study an integrality property of the Fourier coefficients of[f] _r ⁿ . A common denominator for them is described in terms of a critical value of the standardL-function attached tof, some Bernoulli numbers, and a certain ideal depending only onf. The result specialized to the caser=0 coincides with the Siegel-Böcherer theorem on the Siegel type Eisenstein series.     

Propagation des singularités des courants positifs fermés

Given a closed positive currentT on a bounded Runge open subset Ω ofC ⁿ , we study sufficient conditions for the existence of a global extension ofT toC ⁿ . WhenT has a sufficiently low density, we show that the extension is possible and that there is no propagation of singularities, i.e.T may be extended by a closed positiveC ^∞-form outside \(\bar \Omega \) . Conversely, using recent results ofH. Skoda andH. El Mir, we give examples of non extendable currents showing that the above sufficient conditions are optimal in bidegree (1, 1).     

Additive operators preserving rank-additivity on symmetry matrix spaces

We characterize the additive operators preserving rank-additivity on symmetry matrix spaces. LetS _n(F) be the space of alln×n symmetry matrices over a fieldF with 2,3 ∈F ^*, thenT is an additive injective operator preserving rank-additivity onS _n(F) if and only if there exists an invertible matrixU∈M _n(F) and an injective field homomorphism ? ofF to itself such thatT(X)=cUX ^?U^T, ?X=(x_ij)∈S_n(F) wherec∈F ^*,X ^?=(?(x _ij)). As applications, we determine the additive operators preserving minus-order onS _n(F) over the fieldF.     

Полиномиаляная аппроксимация на компактах нулевои логарифмическии емкости и аналитичностя функции

For compact setsK $K \subseteq C$ C of zero logarithmic capacity we obtain the analogue of the well-known Bernstein-Walsh theorem that describes the relation between the decreasing rate of the best uniform polynomial approximation to a functionf onK and the possibility of its analytic extension into the “canonical” domain bounded by the level line of the Green functiongK.     

Hankel operators on planar domains

Let Ω be a bounded domain in the plane whose boundary consists of a finite number of disjoint analytic simple closed curves LetA denote the space of analytic functions on Ω which are square integrable over Ω with respect to area measure and letP denote the orthogonal projection ofL ²(Ω,dA) ontoA. A functionb inA induces a Hankel operator (densely defined) onA by the ruleH _b (g)=(I?P)bg. This paper continues earlier investigations of the authors and others by determining conditions under whichH _b is bounded, compact, or lies in the Schatten-von Neumann idealS _p , 1<p<∞

Letf:V→R be a function defined on a subsetV ofR ⁿ ×R ^d let?:x→inf{f(x t);t such that(x t)∈V} denote theshadow off and letΦ={(x t)∈V; f(x t)=?(x)} This paper deals with the characterization of some properties of ? in terms of the infinitesimal behavior off near points ζ∈Φ proving in particular a conjecture of J M Trépreau concerning the cased=1 Characterizations of this type are provided for the convexity the subharmonicity or theC ^{1 1} regularity of ? in the interior ofI={x∈ R ⁿ;εR ^d (x t)∈V} and in theC ^{1 1} case an expression forD ²? is given To some extent an answer is given to the following question: which convex function ?:I→R I interval ?R (resp which function √:I→R of classC ^{1 1}) is the shadow of aC ² functionf:I×R→R?     

Variational Inequalities: an Elementary Approach

We will deal with the following problem: Let M be an n×n matrix with real entries. Under which conditions the family of inequalities: x∈? ⁿ ;x?0;M·x?0has non–trivial solutions? We will prove that a sufficient condition is given by m_i,j+m_j,i?0 (1?i,j?n); from this result we will derive an elementary proof of the existence theorem for Variational Inequalities in the framework of Monotone Operators.     

The Zygmund Morse-Sard Theorem

The classical Morse-Sard Theorem says that the set of critical values off:R ^n+k →R ⁿ has Lebesgue measure zero iff ∈C ^k+1. We show theC ^k+1 smoothness requirement can be weakened toC ^k+Zygmund. This is corollary to the following theorem: For integersn >m >r > 0, lets = (n ?r)/(m ?r); iff:R ⁿ →R ^m belongs to the Lipschitz class Λ _s andE is a set of rankr forf, thenf(E) has measure zero.     

CAT(0) 4-manifolds possessing a single tame point are Euclidean

The concepts of geometric and topological tame point are introduced for a space of nonpositive curvature. These concepts are applied to the characterization problem forCAT(0) 4-manifolds. It is shown that everyCAT(0)M ⁴ having a single (geometric or topological) tame point is homeomorphic toR ⁴. Davis and Januszkiewicz have recently constructedCAT(0)n-manifolds,M ⁿ withn ≥ 5 such that the set of tame points form a dense open subset ofM ⁿ , butM ⁿ ≠R ⁿ .     

On lattices of congruences of relational systems and universal algebras

Let \(\mathfrak{X}\) =〈X;R〉 be a relational system.X is a non-empty set andR is a collection of subsets ofX ^α, α an ordinal. The system of equivalence relations onX having the substitution property with respect to members ofR form a complete latticeC( \(\mathfrak{X}\) ) containing the identity but not necessarilyX×X. It is shown that for any relational system (X;R) there is a groupoid definable onX whose congruence lattice isC( \(\mathfrak{X}\) )U{X×X} . Theorem 2 and Corollary 2 contain some interesting combinatorial pecularities associated with oriented complete graphs and simple groupoids.     

The properties of orthogonal matrix-valued wavelet packets in higher dimensions

In the paper matrix-valued multiresolution analysis and matrix-valued wavelet packets of spaceL ²(R ⁿ ,C ^{s x s}) are introduced. A procedure for constructing a class of matrix-valued wavelet packets in higher dimensions is proposed. The properties for the matrix-valued multivariate wavelet packets are investigated by using integral transform, algebra theory and operator theory. Finally, a new orthonormal basis ofL ²(R ⁿ ,C ^{s x s}) is derived from the orthogonal multivariate matrix-valued wavelet packets.     

Existence and non-existence of positive solutions of the scalar field system in R n,I

Letn > 3 andΩ be either the entire spaceR ⁿ or a Euclidean ball in R ⁿ . Consider the following boundary value problem (I) $$\{ _{\Delta v - u + u^q = 0,}^{\Delta u - v + v^p = 0,} u,v > 0, x \in \Omega $$ with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary data (replaced byu, v → 0 as ¦x¦ → ∞ when Ω=R ⁿ ), where p > 1 and q > 1. In this paper, we investigate the question of existence and non-existence of solutions of (I) and prove that (I) admits a solution if and only if $$\frac{1}{{p + 1}} + \frac{1}{{q + 1}} > \frac{{n - 2}}{n}$$ . The existence on a ball and onR ⁿ are established by a variational approach and an approximation argument respectively. The Pohozaev identity is used to show non-existence onR ⁿ .     

On the classification of conditionally integrable evolution systems in (1 + 1) dimensions

We generalize earlier results of Fokas and Liu and find all locally analytic (1 + 1)-dimensional evolution equations of order n that admit an N-shock-type solution with N ≤ n + 1. For this, we develop a refinement of the technique from our earlier work, where we completely characterized all (1+1)-dimensional evolution systems u _t = F (x, t, u, ?u/?x,..., ?ⁿ u/? x ⁿ) that are conditionally invariant under a given generalized (Lie-Bäcklund) vector field Q(x, t, u, ?u/?x,..., ?^k u/?x ^k)?/?u under the assumption that the system of ODEs Q = 0 is totally nondegenerate. Every such conditionally invariant evolution system admits a reduction to a system of ODEs in t, thus being a nonlinear counterpart to quasi-exactly solvable models in quantum mechanics.     

Approximation by antiderivatives

Let Ω ?C be an open set with simply connected components and suppose that the functionφ is holomorphic on Ω. We prove the existence of a sequence {φ ^(?n)} ofn-fold antiderivatives (i.e., we haveφ ⁽⁰⁾(z)∶=φ(z) andφ ^(?n)(z)=dφ ^(?n?1)(z)/dz for alln ∈ N₀ and z ∈ Ω) such that the following properties hold:

1. For any compact setB ?Ω with connected complement and any functionf that is continuous onB and holomorphic in its interior, there exists a sequence {n _k} such that {φ^?nk} converges tof uniformly onB.
2. For any open setU ?Ω with simply connected components and any functionf that is holomorphic onU, there exists a sequence {m _k} such that {φ^?mk} converges tof compactly onU.
3. For any measurable setE ?Ω and any functionf that is measurable onE, there exists a sequence {p _k} such that {φ ^(-Pk)} converges tof almost everywhere onE.

     

Approximation of measures by Markov processes and homogeneous affine iterated function systems

It is shown that under certain conditions, attractive invariant measures for iterated function systems (indeed for Markov processes on locally compact spaces) depend continuously on parameters of the system. We discuss a special class of iterated function systems, the homogeneous affine ones, for which an inverse problem is easily solved in principle by Fourier transform methods. We show that a probability measureμ onR ⁿ can be approximated by invariant measures for finite iterated function systems of this class if \(\hat \mu (t)/\hat \mu (a^T t)\) is positive definite for some nonzero contractive linear mapa:R ⁿ →R ⁿ . Moments and cumulants are also discussed.     

On diversity and stability of unit bases for the Euclidean metric

We prove the existence of a family Ω(n) of 2 ^c (where c is the cardinality of the continuum) subgraphs of the unit distance graph (E ⁿ , 1) of the Euclidean space E ⁿ , n ≥ 2, such that (a) for each graph G ? Ω(n), any homomorphism of G to (E ⁿ , 1) is an isometry of E ⁿ ; moreover, for each subgraph G ₀ of the graph G obtained from G by deleting less than c vertices, less than c stars, and less than c edges (we call such a subgraph reduced), any homomorphism of G ₀ to (E ⁿ , 1) is an isometry (of the set of the vertices of G ₀); (b) each graph G ? Ω(n) cannot be homomorphically mapped to any other graph of the family Ω(n), and the same is true for each reduced subgraph of G.     

Sufficient Conditions and Duality for a Class of Multiobjective Fractional Programming Problems with Higher-Order (F,α,ρ,d)-Convexity

In this paper, a class of multiobjective fractional programming problems (denoted by (MFP)) is considered. First, the concept of higher-order (F,α,ρ,d)-convexity of a function f:C→R with respect to the differentiable function φ:R ⁿ ×R ⁿ →R is introduced, where C is an open convex set in R ⁿ and α:C×C→R ₊?{0} is a positive value function. And an important property, which the ratio of higher-order (F,α,ρ,d)-convex functions is also higher-order (F,α ^′,ρ ^′,d ^′)-convex, is proved. Under the higher-order (F,α,ρ,d)-convexity assumptions, an alternative theorem is also given. Then, some sufficient conditions characterizing properly (or weakly) efficient solutions of (MFP) are obtained from the above property and alternative theorem. Finally, a class of dual problems is formulated and appropriate duality theorems are proved.     

Contraction mappings in interval analysis

Under certain conditions, the contraction mapping fixed point theorem guarantees the convergence of the iterationx _i+1=f(x _i ) toward a fixed point of the functionf:R ⁿ →R ⁿ. When an interval extensionF off is used in a similar iteration scheme to obtain a sequence of interval vectors these conditions need not provide convergence to a degenerate interval vector representing the fixed point, even if the width of the initial interval vector is chosen arbitrarily small. We give a sufficient condition on the extensionF in order that the convergence is guaranteed. The centered form of Moore satisfies this condition.     

A sharp weightedL 2-estimate for the solution to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation

For Ξ∈R ⁿ ,t∈R andf∈S(R ⁿ ) define $\left( {S^2 f} \right)\left( t \right)\left( \xi \right) = \exp \left( {it\left| \xi \right|^2 } \right)\hat f\left( \xi \right)$ . We determine the optimal regularitys ₀ such that $\int_{R^n } {\left\| {(S^2 f)[x]} \right\|_{L^2 (R)}^2 \frac{{dx}}{{(1 + |x|)^b }} \leqslant C\left\| f \right\|_{H^s (R^n )}^2 ,s > s_0 } ,$ holds whereC is independent off∈S(R ⁿ ) or we show that such optimal regularity does not exist. This problem has been treated earlier, e.g. by Ben-Artzi and Klainerman [2], Kato and Yajima [4], Simon [6], Vega [9] and Wang [11]. Our theorems can be generalized to the case where the exp(it|ξ|²) is replaced by exp(it|ξ|^a),a≠2. The proof uses Parseval's formula onR, orthogonality arguments arising from decomposingL ²(R ⁿ ) using spherical harmonics and a uniform estimate for Bessel functions. Homogeneity arguments are used to show that results are sharp with respect to regularity.     

The distribution of extreme points in best complex polynomial approximation

LetK be a compact point set in the complex plane having positive logarithmic capacity and connected complement. For anyf continuous onK and analytic in the interior ofK we investigate the distribution of the extreme points for the error in best uniform approximation tof onK by polynomials. More precisely, if $$A_n (f): = \{ z \in K:|f(z) - p_n^* (f;z)| = \parallel f - p_n^* (f)\parallel _K \} ,$$ wherep _n ^* (f) is the polynomial of degree≤n of best uniform approximation tof onK, we show that there is a subsequencen _k with the property that the sequence of (n _k +2)-point Fekete subsets of \(A_{n_k }\) has limiting distribution (ask→∞) equal to the equilibrium distribution forK. Analogues for weighted approximation are also given.
