Punishing Factors for Finitely Connected Domains

Let Ω and Π be two finitely connected hyperbolic domains in the complex plane \Bbb C{\Bbb C} and let R(z, Ω) denote the hyperbolic radius of Ω at z and R(w, Π) the hyperbolic radius of Π at w. We consider functions f that are analytic in Ω and such that all values f(z) lie in the domain Π. This set of analytic functions is denoted by A(Ω, Π). We prove among other things that the quantities C_n(W,P) := sup_{f ? A(W,P)}sup_{z ? W}\frac|f⁽ⁿ⁾(z)| R(f(z),P)n! (R(z,W))ⁿC_n(\Omega,\Pi)\,:=\,\sup_{f\in A(\Omega,\Pi)}\sup_{z\in \Omega}\frac{\vert f^{(n)}(z)\vert\,R(f(z),\Pi)}{n!\,(R(z,\Omega))^n} are finite for all n ? \Bbb N{n \in {\Bbb N}} if and only if ∂Ω and ∂Π do not contain isolated points.

On quasi-similarity of subnormal operators

For a compact subset K in the complex plane, let Rat(K) denote the set of the rational functions with poles off K. Given a finite positive measure with support contained in K, let R2(K,v) denote the closure of Rat(K) in L2(v) and let Sv denote the operator of multiplication by the independent variable z on R2(K, v), that is, Svf = zf for every f∈R2(K, v). SupposeΩis a bounded open subset in the complex plane whose complement has finitely many components and suppose Rat(Ω) is dense in the Hardy space H2(Ω). Letσdenote a harmonic measure forΩ. In this work, we characterize all subnormal operators quasi-similar to Sσ, the operators of the multiplication by z on R2(Ω,σ). We show that for a given v supported onΩ, Sv is quasi-similar to Sσif and only if v/■Ω■σ and log(dv/dσ)∈L1(σ). Our result extends a well-known result of Clary on the unit disk.     

Punishing Factors for Finitely Connected Domains

Let Ω and Π be two finitely connected hyperbolic domains in the complex plane and let R(z, Ω) denote the hyperbolic radius of Ω at z and R(w, Π) the hyperbolic radius of Π at w. We consider functions f that are analytic in Ω and such that all values f(z) lie in the domain Π. This set of analytic functions is denoted by A(Ω, Π).

Norm conditions for real-algebra isomorphisms between uniform algebras

Let A and B be uniform algebras. Suppose that α ≠ 0 and A ₁ ⊂ A. Let ρ, τ: A ₁ → A and S, T: A ₁ → B be mappings. Suppose that ρ(A ₁), τ(A ₁) and S(A ₁), T(A ₁) are closed under multiplications and contain expA and expB, respectively. If ‖S(f)T(g) − α‖_∞ = ‖ρ(f)τ(g) − α‖_∞ for all f, g ∈ A ₁, S(e ₁)⁻¹ ∈ S(A ₁) and S(e ₁) ∈ T(A ₁) for some e ₁ ∈ A ₁ with ρ(e ₁) = 1, then there exists a real-algebra isomorphism $ \tilde S $ \tilde S : A → B such that $ \tilde S $ \tilde S (ρ(f)) = S(e ₁)⁻¹ S(f) for every f ∈ A ₁. We also give some applications of this result.     

On the iteration of holomorphic self-maps of ℂ*

Letf be a holomorphic self-map of the punctured plane ℂ^*=ℂ\{0} with essentially singular points 0 and ∞. In this note, we discuss the setsI ₀(f)={z ∈ ℂ^*:f ⁿ (z) → 0,n → ∞} andI _∞(f)={z ∈ ℂ^*:f ⁿ (z) → 0,n → ∞}. We try to find the relation betweenI ₀(f),I _∞(t) andJ(f). It is proved that both the boundary ofI ₀(f) and the boundary ofI _∞)f) equal toJ(f),I ₀(f) ∩J(f) ≠ θ andI _∞(f) ∩J(f) ≠ θ. As a consequence of these results, we find bothI ₀(f) andI _∞(f) are not doubly-bounded. Supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China     

A note on Sobolev orthogonality for Laguerre matrix polynomials

Let {Ln(A,λ)(x)}n≥0 be the sequence of monic Laguerre matrix polynomials defined on [0, ∞) by Ln(A,λ)(x)=n!/(-λ)n∑nk=0(-λ)κ/k!(n-1)! (A I)n[(A I)k]-1 xk,where A ∈ Cr×r. It is known that {Ln(A,λ)(x)}n≥0 is orthogonal with respect to a matrix moment functional when A satisfies the spectral condition that Re(z) ＞ - 1 for every z ∈σ(A).In this note we show that forA such that σ(A) does not contain negative integers, the Laguerre matrix polynomials Ln(A,λ) (x) are orthogonal with respect to a non-diagonal SobolevLaguerre matrix moment functional, which extends two cases: the above matrix case and the known scalar case.

A generalization of peripherally-multiplicative surjections between standard operator algebras

Let A and B be standard operator algebras on Banach spaces X and Y, respectively. The peripheral spectrum σ_π (T) of T is defined by σ_π (T) = z ∈ σ(T): |z| = max_w∈σ(T) |w|. If surjective (not necessarily linear nor continuous) maps φ, ϕ: A → B satisfy σ_π (φ(S)ϕ(T)) = σ_π (ST) for all S; T ∈ A, then φ and ϕ are either of the form φ(T) = A ₁ TA ₂ ⁻¹ and ϕ(T) = A ₂ TA ₁ ⁻¹ for some bijective bounded linear operators A ₁; A ₂ of X onto Y, or of the form φ(T) = B ₁ T*B ₂ ⁻¹ and ϕ(T) = B ₂ T*B ⁻¹ for some bijective bounded linear operators B ₁;B ₂ of X* onto Y.

Properties of generalised juxtapolynomials

GivenF(z),f ₁(z), ..,f _n(z) defined on a finite point setE, and givenB — the set of generalised polynomials Σ _k ^=1/n a _kf_k(z) — the definition of a juxtapolynomial is extended in the following manner: for a fixedλ(0<λ≦1),f(z) εB is called a generalizedλ-weak juxtapolynomial toF(z) onE if and only if there exists nog(z) εB for whichg(z)=F(z) wheneverf(z)=F(z) and |g(z)−F(z) |<λ|f(z)−F(z)| wheneverf(z)≠F(z). The properties of suchf(z) are investigated with particular attention given to the real case. This note is an extension of a part of the author’s M.Sc. Thesis under the supervision of Prof. B. Grünbaum to whom the author wishes to express his sincerest appreciation. The author also wishes to thank Dr. J. Lindenstrauss for his valuable remarks in the preparation of this paper.     

On the divisor function of sets with even partition functions

Summary For P∈ F₂[z] with P(0)=1 and deg(P)≧ 1, let A =A(P) be the unique subset of N (cf. [9]) such that Σ_n≧0 p(A,n)zⁿ ≡ P(z) mod 2, where p(A,n) is the number of partitions of n with parts in A. To determine the elements of the set A, it is important to consider the sequence σ(A,n) = Σ _{d|n, d∈A} d, namely, the periodicity of the sequences (σ(A,2^kn) mod 2^k+1)_n≧1 for all k ≧ 0 which was proved in [3]. In this paper, the values of such sequences will be given in terms of orbits. Moreover, a formula to σ(A,2^kn) mod 2^k+1 will be established, from which it will be shown that the weight σ(A₁,2^kz_i) mod 2^k+1 on the orbit <InlineEquation ID=IE"1"><EquationSource Format="TEX"><![CDATA[<InlineEquation ID=IE"2"><EquationSource Format="TEX"><![CDATA[$]]></EquationSource></InlineEquation>]]></EquationSource></InlineEquation>z_i$ is moved on some other orbit z_j when A₁ is replaced by A₂ with A₁= A(P₁) and A₂= A(P₂) P₁ and P₂ being irreducible in F₂[z] of the same odd order.

New Findings on the Bank–Sauer Approach in Oscillation Theory

In 1988, S. Bank showed that if {z _n } is a sparse sequence in the complex plane, with convergence exponent zero, then there exists a transcendental entire A(z) of order zero such that f″+A(z)f=0 possesses a solution having {z _n } as its zeros. Further, Bank constructed an example of a zero sequence {z _n } violating the sparseness condition, in which case the corresponding coefficient A(z) is of infinite order. In 1997, A. Sauer introduced a condition for the density of the points in the zero sequence {z _n } of finite convergence exponent such that the corresponding coefficient A(z) is of finite order.

On product-cordial index sets and friendly index sets of 2-regular graphs and generalized wheels

A vertex labeling f : V → Z2 of a simple graph G = (V, E) induces two edge labelings f+ , f*: E → Z2 defined by f+ (uv) = f(u)+f(v) and f*(uv) = f(u)f(v). For each i∈Z2 , let vf(i) = |{v ∈ V : f(v) = i}|, e+f(i) = |{e ∈ E : f+(e) = i}| and e*f(i)=|{e∈E:f*(e)=i}|. We call f friendly if |vf(0)-vf(1)|≤ 1. The friendly index set and the product-cordial index set of G are defined as the sets{|e+f(0)-e+f(1)|:f is friendly} and {|e*f(0)-e*f(1)| : f is friendly}. In this paper we study and determine the connection between the friendly index sets and product-cordial index sets of 2-regular graphs and generalized wheel graphs.

Vector-valued weak martingale Hardy spaces and atomic decompositions

Some atomic decomposition theorems are proved in vector-valued weak martingale Hardy spaces w _p Σ_α(X), w _p Q _α(X) and wD _α(X). As applications of atomic decompositions, a sufficient condition for sublinear operators defined on some vector-valued weak martingale Hardy spaces to be bounded is given. In particular, some weak versions of martingale inequalities for the operators f*, S ^(p)(f) and σ^(p)(f) are obtained.
