The best approximation of Laplace operator by linear bounded operators in the space <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>

We obtain close two-sided estimates for the best approximation of Laplace operator by linear bounded operators on the class of functions for which the square of the Laplace operator belongs to the L _p -space. We estimate the best constant in the corresponding Kolmogorov inequality and the error of the optimal recovery of values of the Laplace operator on functions from this class defined with an error. In a particular case (p = 2) we solve all three problems exactly.     

Best approximation by ridge functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-spaces

We study the approximation of the classes of functions by the manifold R _n formed by all possible linear combinations of n ridge functions of the form r(a · x)): It is proved that, for any 1 ≤ q ≤ p ≤ ∞, the deviation of the Sobolev class W ^r _p from the set R _n of ridge functions in the space L _q (B ^d ) satisfies the sharp order n ^-r/(d-1).

Approximation of sine-shaped functions by constants in the spaces <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> < 1

We investigate the best approximations of sine-shaped functions by constants in the spaces L_p for p < 1. In particular, we find the best approximation of perfect Euler splines by constants in the spaces L_p for certain p(0,1).Translated from Ukrainskyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 56, No. 6, pp. 745–762, June, 2004.     

Strictly singular operators in pairs of <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis> <Subscript> <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> </Subscript> space

Let E and F be Banach spaces. A linear operator from E to F is said to be strictly singular if, for any subspace Q ? E, the restriction of A to Q is not an isomorphism. A compactness criterion for any strictly singular operator from L_p to L_q is found. There exists a strictly singular but not superstrictly singular operator on L_p, provided that p ≠ 2.     

Interpolation of nonlinear operators in weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-spaces

We show that Peetre’s classical interpolation theorem in weighted L _p -spaces is carried over to some classes of nonlinear operators containing in particular the Lipschitz operators and operators close to them in the properties satisfying less restrictive conditions than Lipschitz in each of the spaces of a Banach pair.     

On the Theory of <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Subscript>)-Banach Lattices

Given 1≤ p,q < ∞, let BL_pL_q be the class of all Banach lattices X such that X is isometrically lattice isomorphic to a band in some L_p(L_q)-Banach lattice. We show that the range of a positive contractive projection on any BL_pL_q-Banach lattice is itself in BL_pL_q. It is a consequence of this theorem and previous results that BL_pL_q is first-order axiomatizable in the language of Banach lattices. By studying the pavings of arbitrary BL_pL_q-Banach lattices by finite dimensional sublattices that are themselves in this class, we give an explicit set of axioms for BL_pL_q. We also consider the class of all sublattices of L_p(L_q)-Banach lattices; for this class (when p/q is not an integer) we give a set of axioms that are similar to Krivine’s well-known axioms for the subspaces of L_p-Banach spaces (when p/2 is not an integer). We also extend this result to the limiting case q = ∞.     

On approximation of functions by trigonometric polynomials with incomplete spectrum in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>, 0 < <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> < 1

Let B be a set of integers with certain arithmetic properties. We obtain estimates of the best approximation of functions in the space L _p , 0 < p <1, by trigonometric polynomials that are constructed by the system {e^ikx}_{k ? \mathbbZ\B} \{e^{ikx}\}_{k\in \mathbb{Z}\backslash B} .

Upper triangular operators and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>-functions

For a newform f for Γ₀(N) of even weight k supersingular at a prime p ≥ 5, by using infinite dimensional p-adic analysis, we prove that the p-adic L-function L _p (f,α; χ) has finite order of vanishing at any character of the form [(c)\tilde] _s ( x ) = x^s\tilde \chi _s \left( x \right) = x^s. In particular, under the natural embedding of ℤ _p in the group of ℂ* _p -valued continuous characters of ℤ* _p , the order of vanishing at any point is finite.     

Generalized growth and best approximation of entire functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>-norm in several complex variables

The paper deals with the characterization of generalized order and generalized type of entire functions in several complex variables in terms of the coefficients of the development with respect to the sequence of extremal polynomials and the best L ^p -approximation and interpolation errors, 0 < p ≤ ∞, on a compact set K with respect to the set

$K_r = \left\{z \in \mathbb{C}^n, {\rm exp} (V_K (z)) \leq r\right\}$

where V _K is the Siciak extremal function of a L-regular compact set K or V _K is the pluricomplex Green function with a pole at infinity. It has been noticed that in the study of growth of entire functions, the set K _r has not been used so extensively in comparison to disk. Our results apply satisfactorily for slow growth in \({\mathbb{C}^n}\) , replacing the circle \({\{z \in \mathbb{C}; |z| = r\}}\) by the set K _r and improve and extend various results of Harfaoui (Int J Maths Math Sci 2010:1–15, 2010), Seremeta (Am Math Soc Transl 88(2):291–301, 1970), Shah (J Approx Theory 19:315–324, 1977) and Vakarchuk and Zhir (Ukr Math J 54(9):1393–1401, 2002).

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-Boundedness of general index transforms

We establish the boundedness properties in L _p for a class of integral transformations with respect to an index of hypergeometric functions. In particular, by using the Riesz-Thorin interpolation theorem, we get the corresponding results in L _p (R ₊), 1 p 2, for the Kontorovich-Lebedev, Mehler-Fock, and Olevskii index transforms. An inversion theorem is proved for a general index transformation. The case p=2 is known as the Plancherel-type theory for this class of transformations.__________Published in Lietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, Vol. 45, No. 1, pp. 127–147, January–March, 2005.     

Point sets with low <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-discrepancy

In this paper we study the L _p -discrepancy of digitally shifted Hammersley point sets. While it is known that the (unshifted) Hammersley point set (which is also known as Roth net) with N points has L _p -discrepancy (p an integer) of order (log N)/N, we show that there always exists a shift such that the digitally shifted Hammersley point set has L _p -discrepancy (p an even integer) of order which is best possible by a result of W. Schmidt. Further we concentrate on the case p = 2. We give very tight lower and upper bounds for the L ₂-discrepancy of digitally shifted Hammersley point sets which show that the value of the L ₂-discrepancy of such a point set mostly depends on the number of zero coordinates of the shift and not so much on the position of these.

On the <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript> affine isoperimetric inequalities

Volterra type integral operators with homogeneous kernels in weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>-spaces

We consider multidimensional integral Volterra type operators with kernels homogeneous of degree (?n); the operators act in L _p -spaces with a submultiplicative weight. For these operators we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions of their invertibility. Besides, we describe the Banach algebra generated by the operators. For this algebra we construct the symbolic calculus, in terms of which we obtain an invertibility criterion of the operators.     

Rationality of the vertex operator algebra <Emphasis Type="Italic">V</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis></Subscript>+ for a positive definite even lattice <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis>

The lattice vertex operator algebra V_L associated to a positive definite even lattice L has an automorphism of order 2 lifted from –1-isometry of L. The fixed point set V_L+ of V_L for the automorphism is naturally a vertex operator algebra. We prove that any ₀-graded weak V_L⁺-module is completely reducible.Supported by JSPS Research Fellowships for Young Scientists.     

Approximation of classes of analytic functions by Fourier sums in the metric of the space <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>

We establish asymptotic equalities for upper bounds of approximations by partial Fourier sums in the metrics of the spaces L _p , 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, on classes of Poisson integrals of periodic functions belonging to the unit ball of the space L ₁. The results obtained are generalized to the classes of -differentiable (in the sense of Stepanets) functions that admit an analytic extension to a fixed strip of the complex plane. __________ Translated from Ukrains’kyi Matematychnyi Zhurnal, Vol. 57, No. 10, pp. 1395–1408, October, 2005.

Ordinal indices of Small Subspaces of <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>

We calculate the ordinal L _p index defined in [3] for Rosenthal’s space X _p , \({\ell_p}\) and \({\ell_2}\). We show that an infinite-dimensional subspace of L _p \({(2 < p < \infty)}\) non-isomorphic to \({\ell_2}\) embeds in \({\ell_p}\) if and only if its ordinal index is the minimal possible. We also give a sufficient condition for a \({\mathcal{L}_p}\) subspace of \({\ell_p \oplus \ell_2}\) to be isomorphic to X _p .
