Remarks on balance in generalized Tate cohomology

We consider two pairs of complete hereditary cotorsion theories on the category of left R-modules, such that We prove that for any left R-modules M, N and for any n ≧ 1, the generalized Tate cohomology modules can be computed either using a left of M and a left of M or using a right a right of N.

Spectrum and Bethe Ansatz Equations for the U_{q} {\left( {gl(\mathcal{N})} \right)} Closed and Open Spin Chains in any Representation

We consider the N-site integrable spin chain with periodic and open diagonal soliton-preserving boundary conditions. By employing analytical Bethe ansatz techniques we are able to determine the spectrum and the corresponding Bethe ansatz equations for the general case, where each site of the spin chain is associated to any representation of In the case of open spin chain, we study finite dimensional representations of the quantum reflection algebra, and prove in full generality that the pseudo-vacuum is a highest weight of the monodromy matrix. For these two types of spin chain, we study the (generalized) “algebraic” fusion procedures, which amount to construct the quantum contraction and the Sklyanin determinant for the and quantum reflection algebras. We also determine the symmetry algebra of these two types of spin chains, including general K and K⁺ diagonal matrices for the open case. The case of open spin chains with soliton non-preserving boundary conditions is also presented in the framework of quantum twisted Yangians. The symmetry algebra of this spin chains is studied. We also give an exhaustive classification of the invertible matricial solutions to the corresponding reflection equation.

Supersaturation For Ramsey-Turán Problems

For an l-graph , the Turán number is the maximum number of edges in an n-vertex l-graph containing no copy of . The limit is known to exist [8]. The Ramsey–Turán density is defined similarly to except that we restrict to only those with independence number o(n). A result of Erdős and Sós [3] states that as long as for every edge E of there is another edge E′of for which |E∩E′|≥2. Therefore a natural question is whether there exists for which . Another variant proposed in [3] requires the stronger condition that every set of vertices of of size at least εn (0<ε<1) has density bounded below by some threshold. By definition, for every . However, even is not known for very many l-graphs when l>2. We prove the existence of a phenomenon similar to supersaturation for Turán problems for hypergraphs. As a consequence, we construct, for each l≥3, infinitely many l-graphs for which . We also prove that the 3-graph with triples 12a, 12b, 12c, 13a, 13b, 13c, 23a, 23b, 23c, abc, satisfies . The existence of a hypergraph satisfying was conjectured by Erdős and Sós [3], proved by Frankl and R?dl [6], and later by Sidorenko [14]. Our short proof is based on different ideas and is simpler than these earlier proofs. * Research supported in part by the National Science Foundation under grants DMS-9970325 and DMS-0400812, and an Alfred P.

On the Root Functions of General Elliptic Boundary Value Problems

We consider a boundary value problem for an elliptic differential operator of order 2m in a domain . The boundary of is smooth outside a smooth manifold Y of dimension 0 ≤ q < n − 1, and bears edge type singularities along Y . The Lopatinskii condition is assumed to be fulfilled on the smooth part of . The corresponding spaces are weighted Sobolev spaces , and this allows one to define ellipticity of weight γ for the problem. The resolvent of the problem is assumed to possess rays of minimal growth. The main result says that if there are rays of minimal growth with angles between neighbouring rays not exceeding π(γ + 2m)/n, then the root functions of the problem are complete in . In the case of second order elliptic equations the results remain true for all domains with Lipschitz boundary. Communicated by Michael Shapiro. Submitted: May 24, 2006; Accepted: June 15, 2006

The Maximum Size Of Graphs With A Unique<Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>- Factor

For suitable positive integers n and k let m(n, k) denote the maximum number of edges in a graph of order n which has a unique k-factor. In 1964, Hetyei and in 1984, Hendry proved for even n and , respectively. Recently, Johann confirmed the following conjectures of Hendry: for and kn even and for n = 2kq, where q is a positive integer. In this paper we prove for and kn even, and we determine m(n, 3).

Semi-Fredholm Spectrum and Weyl＇s Theorem for Operator Matrices

When A ∈ B（H） and B ∈ B（K） are given, we denote by Mc an operator acting on the Hilbert space HΘ K of the form Me = （ A0 CB）. In this paper, first we give the necessary and sufficient condition for Mc to be an upper semi-Fredholm （lower semi-Fredholm, or Fredholm） operator for some C ∈B（K,H）. In addition, let σSF＋（A） = {λ ∈ C ： A-λI is not an upper semi-Fredholm operator} bc the upper semi-Fredholm spectrum of A ∈ B（H） and let σrsF- （A） = {λ∈ C ： A-λI is not a lower semi-Fredholm operator} be the lower semi Fredholm spectrum of A. We show that the passage from σSF±（A） U σSF±（B） to σSF±（Mc） is accomplished by removing certain open subsets of σSF-（A） ∩σSF＋ （B） from the former, that is, there is an equality σSF±（A） ∪σSF± （B） = σSF± （Mc） ∪＆ where L is the union of certain of the holes in σSF±（Mc） which ilappen to be subsets of σSF- （A） A σSF＋ （B）. Weyl＇s theorem and Browder＇s theorem are liable to fail for 2 × 2 operator matrices. In this paper, we also explore how Weyl＇s theorem, Browder＇s theorem, a-Weyl＇s theorem and a-Browder＇s theorem survive for 2 × 2 upper triangular operator matrices on the Hilbert space.

Exponential Dichotomy on the Real Line and Admissibility of Function Spaces

The purpose of this paper is to give characterizations for uniform exponential dichotomy of evolution families on the real line. We consider a general class of Banach function spaces denoted and we prove that if with and the pair is admissible for an evolution family then is uniformly exponentially dichotomic. By an example we show that the admissibility of the pair for an evolution family is not a sufficient condition for uniform exponential dichotomy. As applications, we deduce necessary and sufficient conditions for uniform exponential dichotomy of evolution families in terms of the admissibility of the pairs and with

For a C₀(N) contraction, this gives a complete characterization of its polar decompositions with unitary factors.
