The L resolvents of second-order elliptic operators of divergence form under the Dirichlet condition

Let A be the 2mth-order elliptic operator of divergence form with bounded measurable coefficients defined in a domain Ω of . For 1<p<∞ we regard A as a bounded linear operator from the L^p Sobolev space to H−m,p(Ω). It is known that when , we can construct the resolvent (A−λ)⁻¹ and estimate its operator norm for some λ if the leading coefficients are uniformly continuous. In this paper, we try to extend this result to a general domain. It is successful when m=1 if Ω is the half-space or a domain with C² bounded boundary. For m>1 it is shown that the problem is reduced to the case where Ω is the half-space and A is a homogeneous operator with constant coefficients. We also give a perturbation theorem.     

C-Weierstrass for compact sets in Hilbert space

The C¹-Weierstrass approximation theorem is proved for any compact subset X of a Hilbert space . The same theorem is also proved for Whitney 1-jets on X when X satisfies the following further condition: There exist finite dimensional linear subspaces such that ?_n?1H_n is dense in and π_n(X)=X∩H_n for each n?1. Here, is the orthogonal projection. It is also shown that when X is compact convex with and satisfies the above condition, then C¹(X) is complete if and only if the C¹-Whitney extension theorem holds for X. Finally, for compact subsets of , an extension of the C¹-Weierstrass approximation theorem is proved for C¹ maps with compact derivatives.     

Trace representation of weights on partial O-algebras

The purpose of this paper is to investigate when a weight ? on a partial O^∗-algebra is a trace weighted by a positive self-adjoint operator Ω, that is, whenever s.t. X†∈L(X) and ?(X†□X)<∞. It is shown that if contains the inverse N of a positive compact operator such that the weak multiplication N□N is defined, then every weight ? on satisfying ?(N□N)<∞ is a trace weighted by some positive trace operator.     

Estimate of the L-Fourier transform norm on nilpotent Lie groups

Let 1<p?2 and q be such that . It is well known that the norm of the L^p-Fourier transform of the additive group is , where . For a nilpotent Lie group G, we obtain the estimate , where m is the maximal dimension of the coadjoint orbits. Such a result was known only for some particular cases.     

A note on the fundamental solution for the Tricomi-type equation in the hyperbolic domain

Barros-Neto and Gelfand (Duke Math. J. 98 (3) (1999) 465; Duke Math. J. 117 (2) (2003) 561) constructed for the Tricomi operator on the plane the fundamental solutions with the supports in the regions related to the geometry of the characteristics of the Tricomi operator. We give for the Tricomi-type operator a fundamental solution relative to an arbitrary point of Rⁿ⁺¹ with the support in the region t?0, where the operator is hyperbolic. Our key observation is that the fundamental solution for the Tricomi-type operator can be written like an integral of the distributions generated by the fundamental solution of the Cauchy problem for the wave equation. The application of that fundamental solution to the L^p-L^q estimate for the forced Tricomi-type equation is given as well.

Estimates of weighted Hardy-Littlewood averages on the p-adic vector space

In the p-adic vector space , we characterize those non-negative functions ψ defined on for which the weighted Hardy-Littlewood average is bounded on (1?r?∞), and on . Also, in each case, we find the corresponding operator norm ‖Uψ‖.     

A characterization of k-hyponormality via weak subnormality

An operator T acting on a Hilbert space is said to be weakly subnormal if there exists an extension acting on such that for all . When such partially normal extensions exist, we denote by m.p.n.e.(T) the minimal one. On the other hand, for k?1, T is said to be k-hyponormal if the operator matrix is positive. We prove that a 2-hyponormal operator T always satisfies the inequality T∗[T∗,T]T?‖T‖2[T∗,T], and as a result T is automatically weakly subnormal. Thus, a hyponormal operator T is 2-hyponormal if and only if there exists B such that BA∗=A∗T and is hyponormal, where A:=[T∗,T]1/2. More generally, we prove that T is (k+1)-hyponormal if and and only if T is weakly subnormal and m.p.n.e.(T) is k-hyponormal. As an application, we obtain a matricial representation of the minimal normal extension of a subnormal operator as a block staircase matrix.     

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.     

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.     

On C classifications of hyperbolic vector fields

In this paper we study smooth classification of hyperbolic vector fields based on their linear approximations only and obtain the following. On Rⁿ, n?5, with only two kinds of exceptions, any two hyperbolic vector fields with generic nonlinear parts and where A_i are n×n matrices, are C¹ conjugate to each other if and only if A₁ and A₂ are strictly similar, and they are C¹ orbitally equivalent if and only if A₁ and A₂ are similar.     

Isomorphisms between unital C-algebras

It is shown that every almost linear bijection of a unital C^∗-algebra A onto a unital C^∗-algebra B is a C^∗-algebra isomorphism when h(n²uy)=h(n²u)h(y) for all unitaries u∈A, all y∈A, and n=0,1,2,…, and that almost linear continuous bijection of a unital C^∗-algebra A of real rank zero onto a unital C^∗-algebra B is a C^∗-algebra isomorphism when h(n²uy)=h(n²u)h(y) for all , all y∈A, and n=0,1,2,…. Assume that X and Y are left normed modules over a unital C^∗-algebra A. It is shown that every surjective isometry , satisfying T(0)=0 and T(ux)=uT(x) for all x∈X and all unitaries u∈A, is an A-linear isomorphism. This is applied to investigate C^∗-algebra isomorphisms between unital C^∗-algebras.     

Necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness of B-Riesz potential in the B-Morrey spaces

We consider the generalized shift operator, associated with the Laplace-Bessel differential operator . The maximal operator Mγ (B-maximal operator) and the Riesz potential (B-Riesz potential), associated with the generalized shift operator are investigated. At first, we prove that the B-maximal operator Mγ is bounded from the B-Morrey space Lp,λ,γ to Lp,λ,γ for all 1<p<∞ and 0?λ<n+|γ|. We prove that the B-Riesz potential , 0<α<n+|γ| is bounded from the B-Morrey space Lp,λ,γ to Lq,λ,γ if and only if α/(n+|γ|−λ)=1/p−1/q, 1<p<(n+|γ|−λ)/α. Also we prove that the B-Riesz potential is bounded from the B-Morrey space L1,λ,γ to the weak B-Morrey space WLq,λ,γ if and only if α/(n+|γ|−λ)=1−1/q.
