A mod 2 index theorem for the twisted Signature operator

A mod 2 index theorem for the twisted Signature operator on 4 _q + 1 dimensional manifolds is established. This result generalizes a result of Farber and Turaev, which was proved for the case of orthogonal flat bundles, to arbitrary real vector bundles. It also provides an analytic interpretation of the sign of the Poincare-Reidemeister scalar product defined by Farber and Turaev.

Let f(z) be a normalized convex (starlike) function on the unit disc D. Let , where z=(z₁,z₂,…,z_n), z₁∈D, , p_i?1, i=2,…,n, are real numbers. In this note, we prove that Φ(f)(z)=(f(z₁),f′(z₁)^1/p₂z₂,…,f′(z₁)^1/p_nz_n) is a normalized convex (starlike) mapping on Ω, where we choose the power function such that (f′(z₁))^1/p_i|_z1=0=1, i=2,…,n. Some other related results are proved.     

Continuation of a linear operator to an involution operator

A bounded linear operatorA:X→X in a linear topological spaceX is called ap-involution operator,p≥2, ifA ^p=I, whereI is the identity operator. In this paper, we describe linearp-involution operators in a linear topological space over the field ℂ and prove that linear operators can be continued to involution operators.

In this paper we discuss the K-groups of Wiener algebra ;W. For the 1-shift space XGM2,We obtain a characterization of Fredholm operators on X^nGM2 for all n ∈ N. We also calculate the K-groups of operator algebra on the 1-shift space XGM2.     

On K0-groups of operator algebras on Banach spaces

This paper merges some classifications of G-M-type Banach spaces simplifically, discusses the condition of K ₀(B(X)) = 0 for operator algebra B(X) on a Banach space X, and obtains a result to improve Laustsen's sufficient condition, gives an example to show that X ≈ X ² is not a sufficient condition of K ₀(B(X)) = 0.     

Beurling type quotient modules over the bidisk and boundary representations

This paper mainly concerns Beurling type quotient modules of H²(D²) over the bidisk. By establishing a theorem of function theory over the bidisk, it is shown that a Beurling type quotient module is essentially normal if and only if the corresponding inner function is a rational inner function having degree at most (1,1). Furthermore, we apply this result to the study of boundary representations of Toeplitz algebras over quotient modules. It is proved that the identity representation of C^∗(Sz,Sw) is a boundary representation of B(Sz,Sw) in all nontrivial cases. This extends a result of Arveson to Toeplitz algebras on Beurling type quotient modules over the bidisk (cf. [W. Arveson, Subalgebras of C^∗-algebras, Acta Math. 123 (1969) 141-224; W. Arveson, Subalgebras of C^∗-algebras II, Acta Math. 128 (1972) 271-308]). The paper also establishes K-homology defined by Beurling type quotient modules over the bidisk.     

The Dirac-Ramond operator on loops in flat space

In this paper, a rigorous construction of the S¹-equivariant Dirac operator (i.e., Dirac-Ramond operator) on the space of (mean zero) loops in is given and its equivariant L²-index computed. Essential use is made of infinite tensor product representations of the canonical anticommutation relations algebra.     

q-Differential operator identities and applications

In this paper, we construct a new q-exponential operator and obtain some operator identities. Using these operator identities, we give a formal extension of Jackson's transformation formula. A formal extension of Bailey's summation and an extension of the Sears terminating balanced transformation formula are also derived by our operator method. In addition, we also derive several interesting a formal extensions involving multiple sum about three terms of Sears transformation formula and Heine's transformation formula.     

q-Difference equation and the Cauchy operator identities

In this paper, we verify the Cauchy operator identities by a new method. And by using the Cauchy operator identities, we obtain a generating function for Rogers-Szegö polynomials. Applying the technique of parameter augmentation to two multiple generalizations of q-Chu-Vandermonde summation theorem given by Milne, we also obtain two multiple generalizations of the Kalnins-Miller transformation.     

An operator space approach to condition C

We show that there exists a natural embedding from the tensor product V∗∗⊗W∗∗ of the biduals of operator spaces V and W into the bidual of the injective tensor product of V and W, which is separately weak^∗ continuous. From this, we define condition C for operator spaces.     

A Maurey type result for operator spaces

The little Grothendieck theorem for Banach spaces says that every bounded linear operator between C(K) and ?₂ is 2-summing. However, it is shown in [M. Junge, Embedding of the operator space OH and the logarithmic ‘little Grothendieck inequality’, Invent. Math. 161 (2) (2005) 225-286] that the operator space analogue fails. Not every cb-map is completely 2-summing. In this paper, we show an operator space analogue of Maurey's theorem: every cb-map is (q,cb)-summing for any q>2 and hence admits a factorization ‖v(x)‖?c(q)‖vcb_‖‖axbq_‖ with a,b in the unit ball of the Schatten class S2q.     

The generalized Roper-Suffridge extension operator in Banach spaces (II)

In this paper, we generalize the Roper-Suffridge extension operator from Cn to Banach spaces. It is proved that this operator preserves the biholomorphic ? starlikeness on some domains in Banach spaces. From these, we may construct a lots of concrete examples about biholomorphic ? starlike mappings on some domains Ω in Cn, or Hilbert spaces, or Banach spaces from univalent ? starlike functions on the unit disc U in C. Meanwhile, the growth theorems of the corresponding mappings are given. Some results of Gong and Liu, Roper and Suffridge, Graham et al. in Cn are extended to Hilbert spaces or Banach spaces.     

Inequalities and solution of an operator equation

In this work, we prove several important inequalities, and investigate the solution of an operator equation by means of the fixed point index in the theory of topological degree. For operator equations with different boundary conditions, the same conclusion is obtained. Meanwhile, the famous Rothe’s Theorem is generalized. Finally, an example is given to show the application of Theorem 3.     

A representation theorem for local operator spaces

In this note, we generalize Ruan’s representation theorem and propose an Arveson-Hanh-Banach-Webster theorem for local operator spaces. Further, we investigate the decompos-ability of a complete contraction acting from a unital multinormed C*-algebra to a local operator System into a product of contractions and a unital contractive *-representation, and we study injectivity in both local operator space and local operator System contexts.     

Some classes of analytic functions involving Noor integral operator

The object of the present paper is to investigate some inclusion properties of certain subclasses of analytic functions defined by using the Noor integral operator. The integral preserving properties in connection with the operator are also considered. Relevant connections of the results presented here with those obtained in earlier works are pointed out.     

Another homogeneous q-difference operator

In this paper we show the equivalence between Goldman-Rota q-binomial identity and its inverse. We may specialize the value of the parameters in the generating functions of Rogers-Szegö polynomials to obtain some classical results such as Euler identities and the relation between classical and homogeneous Rogers-Szegö polynomials. We give a new formula for the homogeneous Rogers-Szegö polynomials h_n(x,y|q). We introduce a q-difference operator θ_xy on functions in two variables which turn out to be suitable for dealing with the homogeneous form of the q-binomial identity. By using this operator, we got the identity obtained by Chen et al. [W.Y.C. Chen, A.M. Fu, B. Zhang, The homogeneous q-difference operator, Advances in Applied Mathematics 31 (2003) 659-668, Eq. (2.10)] which they used it to derive many important identities. We also obtain the q-Leibniz formula for this operator. Finally, we introduce a new polynomials s_n(x,y;b|q) and derive their generating function by using the new homogeneous q-shift operator L(bθ_xy).     

A characteristic operator function for the class of n-hypercontractions

We consider a class of bounded linear operators on Hilbert space called n-hypercontractions which relates naturally to adjoint shift operators on certain vector-valued standard weighted Bergman spaces on the unit disc. In the context of n-hypercontractions in the class C0⋅ we introduce a counterpart to the so-called characteristic operator function for a contraction operator. This generalized characteristic operator function Wn,T is an operator-valued analytic function in the unit disc whose values are operators between two Hilbert spaces of defect type. Using an operator-valued function of the form Wn,T, we parametrize the wandering subspace for a general shift invariant subspace of the corresponding vector-valued standard weighted Bergman space. The operator-valued analytic function Wn,T is shown to act as a contractive multiplier from the Hardy space into the associated standard weighted Bergman space.
