On Total Incomparability of Mixed Tsirelson Spaces

We give criteria of total incomparability for certain classes of mixed Tsirelson spaces. We show that spaces of the form $T\left[ {\left( {\mathcal{M}_k ,\theta _k } \right)_{k = 1}^l } \right]$ with index $i\left( {\mathcal{M}_k } \right)$ finite are either c ₀ or $\ell _p $ saturated for some p and we characterize when any two spaces of such a form are totally incomparable in terms of the index $i\left( {\mathcal{M}_k } \right)$ and the parameter θ _k . Also, we give sufficient conditions of total incomparability for a particular class of spaces of the form $T\left[ {\left( {\mathcal{A}_k ,\theta _k } \right)_{k = 1}^\infty } \right]$ in terms of the asymptotic behaviour of the sequence $\left\| {\sum\limits_{j = 1}^n {e_i } } \right\|$ where (e _i is the canonical basis.     

Orthogonality properties of linear combinations of orthogonal polynomials II

Let and be polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle with respect to the measures dσ and dμ, respectively. In this paper we consider the question how the orthogonality measures dσ and dμ are related to each other if the orthogonal polynomials are connected by a relation of the form , for , where . It turns out that the two measures are related by if , where and are known trigonometric polynomials of fixed degree and where the 's are the zeros of on . If the 's and 's are uniformly bounded then (under some additional conditions) much more can be said. Indeed, in this case the measures dσ and dμ have to be of the form and , respectively, where are nonnegative trigonometric polynomials. Finally, the question is considered to which weight functions polynomials of the form where denotes the reciprocal polynomial of , can be orthogonal. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Embedded Spaces of Trigonometric Splines and Their Wavelet Expansion

With each infinite grid X: ? < x _?1 < x ₀ < x ₁ < ? we associate the system of trigonometric splines $\{ \mathfrak{T}_j^B \}$ of class C ¹(α, β), the linear space $$T^B (X)\mathop = \limits^{def} \{ \tilde u|\tilde u = \sum\limits_j {c_j \mathfrak{T}_j^B } \quad \forall c_j \in \mathbb{R}^1 \} ,$$ and the functionals g ⁽ⁱ⁾ ∈ (C ¹(α, β))* with the biorthogonality property: $\left\langle {g(i),\mathfrak{T}_j^B } \right\rangle = \delta _{i,j}$ (here $\alpha \mathop = \limits^{def} \lim _{j \to - \infty } x_j ,\quad \beta \mathop = \limits^{def} \lim _{j \to + \infty } x_j$ ). For nested grids $\bar X \subset X$ , we show that the corresponding spaces $T^B (\bar X)$ are embedded in $T^B (X)$ and obtain decomposition and reconstruction formulas for the spline-wavelet expansion $T^B (X) = T^B (\bar X)\dot + W$ derived with the help of the system of functionals indicated above.     

Subspace Arrangements of Type B n and D n

Let ${\mathcal{D}}_{n,k} $ be the family of linear subspaces of ?ⁿ given by all equations of the form $\varepsilon _1 x_{i_1 } = \varepsilon _2 x_{i_2 } = \cdot \cdot \cdot \varepsilon _k x_{i_k } ,$ for 1 ≤ < ? ? ? < i _k ≤ i and $\left( {\varepsilon _1 ,...,\varepsilon _k } \right)\varepsilon \left\{ { + 1, - 1} \right\}^k $ Also let ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h} $ be ${\mathcal{D}}_{n,k} $ enlarged by the subspaces $x_{j_1 } = x_{j_2 } = \cdot \cdot \cdot x_{j_h } = 0,$ for 1 ≤. The special cases ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,2,1} $ and ${\mathcal{D}}_{n,2} $ are well known as the reflection hyperplane arrangements corresponding to the Coxeter groups of type B _nand D _n respectively. In this paper we study combinatorial and topological properties of the intersection lattices of these subspace arrangements. Expressions for their Möbius functions and characteristic polynomials are derived. Lexicographic shellability is established in the case of ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h,} 1 \leqslant h < k$ , which allows computation of the homology of its intersection lattice and the cohomology groups of the manifold $\begin{gathered} {\mathcal{D}}_{n,2} \\ M_{n,k,h,} = {\mathbb{R}}^n \backslash \bigcup {{\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h,} } \\ \end{gathered} $ . For instance, it is shown that $H^d \left( {M_{n,k,k - 1} } \right)$ is torsion-free and is nonzero if and only if d = t(k ? 2) for some $t,0 \leqslant t \leqslant \left[ {{n \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {n k}} \right. \kern-0em} k}} \right]$ . Torsion-free cohomology follows also for the complement in ?ⁿof the complexification ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h}^C ,1 \leqslant h < k$ .     

Converse Quadrature sum Inequalities for Freud Weights. ii

Let $W: = \exp \left( { - Q} \right)$ , where $Q$ is of smooth polynomial growth at $\infty$ , for example $Q\left( x \right) = \left| x \right|^\beta ,\beta >1$ . We call $W^2 $ a Freud weight. Let $\left\{ {x_{j{\kern 1pt} n} } \right\}_{j = 1}^n $ and $\left\{ {\lambda _{j{\kern 1pt} n} } \right\}_{j = 1}^n $ denote respectively the zeros of the $n$ th orthonormal polynomial $p_n$ for $W^2 $ and the Christoffel numbers of order $n$ . We establish converse quadrature sum inequalities associated with W, such as $$\left\| {\left( {PW} \right)\left( x \right)\left( {1 + \left| x \right|} \right)^r } \right\|_{L_p \left( R \right)} $$ with $C$ independent of $n$ and polynomials P of degree $ < n$ , and suitable restrictions on $r$ , $R$ . We concentrate on the case ${ \geqq 4}$ , as the case ${p < 4}$ was handled earlier. We are able to treat a general class of Freud weights, whereas our earlier treatment dealt essentially with $\left( { - \left| x \right|^\beta } \right),\beta = 2,4,6,....$ Some applications to Lagrange interpolation are presented.     

Which weights on ℝ admit Jackson Theorems?admit Jackson Theorems?

Let W: ?→(0,∞) be continuous. DoesW admit a classical Jackson Theorem? That is, does there exist a sequence $\{ \eta _n \} _{n = 1}^\infty $ of positive numbers with limit 0 such that for 1≤p≤∞, $\mathop {\inf }\limits_{\deg (P) \le n} ||(f - P)W||_{L_p (R)} \le \eta n||f'W||_{L_p (R)} $ for all absolutely continuousf with $||f'W||_{L_p (R)} $ finite? We show that such a theorem is true iff both $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\chi \to \infty } W(\chi )\int_0^\chi {W^{ - 1} } = 0$ and $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{\chi \to \infty } W^{ - 1} (\chi )\int_\chi ^\infty W = 0,$ with analogous limits asx→?∞. In particular,W(x)=exp(?|x|) does not admit a Jackson theorem of this type. We also construct weights that admit anL ₁ but not anL _∞ Jackson theorem (or conversely).     

Morrey-type regularity of solutions to parabolic problems with discontinuous data

We consider regular oblique derivative problem in cylinder Q _T ?=????× (0, T), ${\Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^n}$ for uniformly parabolic operator ${{{\mathfrak P}}=D_t- \sum_{i,j=1}^n a^{ij}(x)D_{ij}}$ with VMO principal coefficients. Its unique strong solvability is proved in Manuscr. Math. 203?C220 (2000), when ${{{\mathfrak P}}u\in L^p(Q_T)}$ , ${p\in(1,\infty)}$ . Our aim is to show that the solution belongs to the generalized Sobolev?CMorrey space ${W^{2,1}_{p,\omega}(Q_T)}$ , when ${{{\mathfrak P}}u\in L^{p,\omega} (Q_T)}$ , ${p\in (1, \infty)}$ , ${\omega(x,r):\,{\mathbb R}^{n+1}_+\to {\mathbb R}_+}$ . For this goal an a priori estimate is obtained relying on explicit representation formula for the solution. Analogous result holds also for the Cauchy?CDirichlet problem.     

The Wiener--Hopf Integral Equation in the Supercritical Case

We consider the scalar homogeneous equation $S(x) = \int_0^\infty {K(x - t)S(t)dt,{\text{ }}x \in \mathbb{R}^ + \equiv (0,\infty ),}$ with symmetric kernel $K:K( - x) = K(x),{\text{ }}x \in \mathbb{R}_1$ satisfying the conditions $0 \leqslant K \in L_1 (\mathbb{R}^ + ) \cap C^{\left( 2 \right)} (\mathbb{R}^ + )$ , $\int_0^\infty {K(t)dt > \frac{1}{2}} $ , $K' \leqslant 0{\text{ }}and 0 \leqslant K'' \downarrow {\text{ }}on \mathbb{R}^ + $ . We prove the existence of a real solution S of the equation given above with asymptotic behavior $S(x) = O(x){\text{ as }}x \to + \infty $ .     

Gaussian Integral Means of Entire Functions

For an entire function \(f:\mathbb C\mapsto \mathbb C\) and a triple \((p,\alpha , r)\in (0,\infty )\times (-\infty ,\infty )\times (0,\infty ]\) , the Gaussian integral mean of \(f\) (with respect to the area measure \(dA\) ) is defined by $$\begin{aligned} {\mathsf M}_{p,\alpha }(f,r)=\left( \,\, {\int \limits _{|z| Via deriving a maximum principle for \({\mathsf M}_{p,\alpha }(f,r)\) , we establish not only Fock–Sobolev trace inequalities associated with \({\mathsf M}_{p,p/2}(z^m f(z),\infty )\) (as \(m=0,1,2,\ldots \) ), but also convexities of \(r\mapsto \ln {\mathsf M}_{p,\alpha }(z^m,r)\) and \(r\mapsto {\mathsf M}_{2,\alpha <0}(f,r)\) in \(\ln r\) with \(0 .     

Bundle Convergence of Cesàro Means of Orthogonal Sequences in Noncommutative L 2-Spaces

The notion of bundle convergence for sequences in von Neumann algebras and their L ²-spaces was introduced by Hensz, Jajte and Paszkiewicz in 1996. Bundle convergence is stronger than almost sure convergence. We prove that the sequence $\left({\sigma _n^\alpha:n = 0,1,...}\right)$ of the Cesàro means of order α > 0 of an orthogonal sequence $\left( {\xi _k } \right)$ in L ₂ is bundle convergent to the zero vector o of L ₂ as n → ∞, provided that $$\sum\limits_k^\infty{{{\left\|{\xi _k } \right\|^2 }\mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{\left\| {\xi _k } \right\|^2 } {\left( {k + 1} \right)^{2\min \left\{ {\alpha ,1} \right\}} < \infty ,\quad \alpha \ne 1.}}} \right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\left( {k + 1} \right)^{2\min \left\{ {\alpha ,1} \right\}} < \infty ,\quad \alpha \ne 1.}}}$$ The corresponding result in the commutative case was proved by Gaposhkin (for 0 < α < 1) and by the present author (for α > 1). Our basic tools are the Gelfand-Naimark-Segal representation theorem and an identity of Sunouchi and Yano which expresses ${\sigma _n^\alpha }$ in terms of ${\sigma_k^{\gamma }}$ , where α > γ > -1.     

Normal Matrices and an Extension of Malyshev's Formula

Let A be a complex matrix of order n with n ≥ 3. We associate with A the 3n × 3n matrix $Q\left( {\gamma } \right) = \left( \begin{gathered} A \gamma _1 I_n \gamma _3 I_n \\ 0 A \gamma _2 I_n \\ 0 0 A \\ \end{gathered} \right)$ where $\gamma _1 ,\gamma _2 ,\gamma _3 $ are scalar parameters and γ=(γ₁,γ₂,γ₃). Let σ_i, 1 ≤ i ≤ 3n, be the singular values of Q(γ) in the decreasing order. We prove that, for a normal matrix A, its 2-norm distance from the set $\mathcal{M}$ of matrices with a zero eigenvalue of multiplicity at least 3 is equal to $\mathop {max}\limits_{\gamma _1 ,\gamma _2 \geqslant 0,\gamma _3 \in \mathbb{C}} \sigma _{3n - 2} (Q\left( \gamma \right)).$ This fact is a refinement (for normal matrices) of Malyshev's formula for the 2-norm distance from an arbitrary n × n matrix A to the set of n × n matrices with a multiple zero eigenvalue.     

On Uniform Approximation in R2 of Continuous Functions of Two Variables with Bounded Variation in the Sense of Hardy

Introduce the notation: $\mathbb{Z}$ is the set of integers, $\bar {\mathbb{Z}}={\mathbb{Z}} \cup \{-\infty, +\infty\},{\mathbb{R}}_+^2 =\{x=(x_1,x_2) \in {\mathbb{R}}^2; x_1>0,x_2>0\}$ , $g_{k,m} (x,\alpha,h)= \int\limits_0^1 {g_1 (\frac{(k+u)h_1 - x_1}{\alpha_1})g_2(\frac{(m+u)h_2 - x_2}{\alpha_2})}du$ , where $g_i :\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R},x \in \mathbb{R}^2 ,\alpha ,h \in \mathbb{R}_ + ^2 $ . Under certain conditions on the functions g ₁, g ₂, we prove that the system of functions $g_{k,m} (x,\alpha^(n), h^(n)) (k,m \in \bar {\mathbb{Z}})$ , where $\alpha ^{\left( n \right)} ,h^{\left( n \right)} \in \mathbb{R}_ + ^2 $ are arbitrary infinitesimal sequences, is complete in the space C $\mathbb{R}^2 $ of uniformly continuous bounded functions f equipped with the norm $||f|| = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{x \in \mathbb{R}^2 } |f(x)|$ . Starting with the functions g _k,m , it is possible to construct a method for uniform approximating in $\mathbb{R}^2 $ any continuous function of bounded variation in the sense of Hardy. An error estimate is derived in terms of the second order moduli of continuity. Based on the obtained results, we discuss in detail the accuracy of uniform approximation of functions of several variables by linear functions. The error estimates are derived by using second order moduli of continuity. We pay a particular attention to sharpness of constants. Bibliography: 8 titles.     

Sharp weak-type inequalities for Hilbert transform and Riesz projection

The paper is devoted to the study of the weak norms of the classical operators in the vector-valued setting.

1. Let S, H denote the singular integral involution operator and the Hilbert transform on $L^p \left( {\mathbb{T}, \ell _\mathbb{C}^2 } \right)$ , respectively. Then for 1 ≤ p ≤ 2 and any f, $$\left\| {\mathcal{S}f} \right\|_{p,\infty } \leqslant \left( {\frac{1} {\pi }\int_{ - \infty }^\infty {\frac{{\left| {\tfrac{2} {\pi }\log \left| t \right|} \right|^p }} {{t^2 + 1}}dt} } \right)^{ - 1/p} \left\| f \right\|p,$$ $$\left\| {\mathcal{H}f} \right\|_{p,\infty } \leqslant \left( {\frac{1} {\pi }\int_{ - \infty }^\infty {\frac{{\left| {\tfrac{2} {\pi }\log \left| t \right|} \right|^p }} {{t^2 + 1}}dt} } \right)^{ - 1/p} \left\| f \right\|p.$$ Both inequalities are sharp.
2. Let P ₊ and P _? stand for the Riesz projection and the co-analytic projection on $L^p \left( {\mathbb{T}, \ell _\mathbb{C}^2 } \right)$ , respectively. Then for 1 ≤ p ≤ 2 and any f, $$\left\| {P + f} \right\|_{p,\infty } \leqslant \left\| f \right\|_p ,$$ $$\left\| {P - f} \right\|_{p,\infty } \leqslant \left\| f \right\|_p .$$ Both inequalities are sharp.
3. We establish the sharp versions of the estimates above in the nonperiodic case.

The results are new even if the operators act on complex-valued functions. The proof rests on the construction of an appropriate plurisubharmonic function and probabilistic techniques.     

Generalised Gagliardo–Nirenberg Inequalities Using Weak Lebesgue Spaces and BMO

Using elementary arguments based on the Fourier transform we prove that for ${1 \leq q < p < \infty}$ and ${s \geq 0}$ with s > n(1/2 ? 1/p), if ${f \in L^{q,\infty} (\mathbb{R}^n) \cap \dot{H}^s (\mathbb{R}^n)}$ , then ${f \in L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}$ and there exists a constant c _p,q,s such that $$\| f \|_{L^{p}} \leq c_{p,q,s} \| f \|^\theta _{L^{q,\infty}} \| f \|^{1-\theta}_{\dot{H}^s},$$ where 1/p = θ/q + (1?θ)(1/2?s/n). In particular, in ${\mathbb{R}^2}$ we obtain the generalised Ladyzhenskaya inequality ${\| f \| _{L^4} \leq c \| f \|^{1/2}_{L^{2,\infty}} \| f \|^{1/2}_{\dot{H}^1}}$ .We also show that for s = n/2 and q > 1 the norm in ${\| f \|_{\dot{H}^{n/2}}}$ can be replaced by the norm in BMO. As well as giving relatively simple proofs of these inequalities, this paper provides a brief primer of some basic concepts in harmonic analysis, including weak spaces, the Fourier transform, the Lebesgue Differentiation Theorem, and Calderon–Zygmund decompositions.     

On the Distance to the Closest Matrix with Triple Zero Eigenvalue

The 2-norm distance from a matrix A to the set ${\mathcal{M}}$ of n × n matrices with a zero eigenvalue of multiplicity ≥3 is estimated. If $$Q(\gamma _1 ,\gamma _2 ,\gamma _3 ) = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} A &amp; {\gamma _1 I_n } &amp; {\gamma _3 I_n } \\ 0 &amp; A &amp; {\gamma _2 I_n } \\ 0 &amp; 0 &amp; A \\ \end{array} } \right), n \geqslant 3,$$ then $$\rho _2 (A,{\mathcal{M}}) \geqslant {\mathop {max}\limits_{\gamma _1 ,\gamma _2 \geqslant 0,\gamma _3 \in {\mathbb{C}}}} \sigma _{3n - 2} (Q(\gamma _1 ,\gamma _2 ,\gamma _3 )),$$ where σⁱ(·)is the ith singular value of the corresponding matrix in the decreasing order of singular values. Moreover, if the maximum on the right-hand side is attained at the point $\gamma ^ * = (\gamma _1^ * ,\gamma _2^ * ,\gamma _3^ * )$ , where $\gamma _1^ * \gamma _2^ * \ne 0$ , then, in fact, one has the exact equality $$\rho _2 (A,{\mathcal{M}}) = \sigma _{3n - 2} (Q(\gamma _1^ * ,\gamma _2^ * ,\gamma _3^ * )).$$ This result can be regarded as an extension of Malyshev's formula, which gives the 2-norm distance from A to the set of matrices with a multiple zero eigenvalue.     

Wellposedness in the Lipschitz class for a quasi-linear hyperbolic system arising from a model of the atmosphere including water phase transitions

In this paper wellposedness is proved for a diagonal quasilinear hyperbolic system containing integral quadratic and Lipschitz continuous terms which prevent from looking for classical solutions in Sobolev spaces. It is the hyperbolic part of the system introduced in [Selvaduray and Fujita Yashima on Atti dell’Accademia delle Scienze di Torino 2011] as a model for air motion in ${\mathbf{R}^3}$ including water phase transitions. Unknown functions are: the densities ρ of dry air, π of water vapor, σ and ν of water in the liquid and solid state, dependent also on the mass m of the droplets or ice particles. Air velocity v and temperature T are assumed to be known. Solutions (ρ, π, σ, ν) lie in ${L^\infty(]0,\tau^*[; W^{1,\infty}(\Omega))^2 \times L^\infty(]0,\tau^*[; W^{1,\infty}(\Omega^+))^2}$ , where ${\Omega^+ = \Omega \times]0, +\infty[,\Omega \subset \mathbf{R}^3}$ is open and bounded, and τ* is sufficiently small; they depend continuously on initial data, temperature and velocities, which are tangent to ${\partial\Omega}$ ; they lie also in ${W^{1,q}(]0,\tau^*[;L^\infty(\Omega))^2 \times\,W^{1,q}(]0,\tau^*[;L^\infty(\Omega^+))^2}$ , where ${q \in [1, \infty]}$ .
