Multivariate model with a Kronecker product covariance structure: S. N. Roy method of estimation

In this paper we consider a (p × q)-matrix X = (X ₁, ..., X _q ), where a pq-vector vec (X) = (X ₁ ^T , ...,X _q ^T ) ^T is assumed to be distributed normally with mean vector vec (M) = (M ₁ ^T , ...,M _q ^T ) ^T and a positive definite covariance matrix Λ. Suppose that Λ follows a Kronecker product covariance structure, that is Λ = Φ?Σ, where Φ = (? _ij ) is a (q × q)-matrix and Σ = (σ _ij ) is a (p × p)-matrix and the matrices Φ, Σ are positive definite. Such a model is considered in [4], where the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters M, Φ, Σ are obtained. Using S. N. Roy’s technique (see, e.g., [3]) of the multivariate statistical analysis, we obtain consistent and unbiased estimates of M, Φ, Σ as in [4], but with less calculations.     

On the cosets of the 2q-power group in the unit group modulop

Letp be a prime number ≡ 3 mod 4,G ^p the unit group of ?/p?, andg a generator ofG _p. Letq be an odd divisor ofp - 1 andG _p ^2q = {t ^2q;t ∈G _pthe subgroup of index2q inG _p. The groupG _p ² / _p ^2q consists of the classes \(\bar g^{2j} \) ,j = 0,...,q – 1. In this paper we study the ’excesses’ of the classes \(\bar g^{2j} \) in {l,...,(_p–l)/2}, i.e., the numbers \(\Phi _j = \left| {\left\{ {k;1 \leqslant k \leqslant \left( {p - 1} \right)/2,\bar k \in \bar g^{2j} } \right\}} \right| - \left| {\left\{ {k;\left( {p - 1} \right)/2 \leqslant k \leqslant p - 1,\bar k \in \bar g^{2j} } \right\}} \right|\) ,j = 0.....q — 1. First we express therelative class number h _2q of the subfieldK _2q? ?(e^2#x03C0;i/p ) of degree [K _2q: ?] =2q in terms of these excesses. We use this formula to establish certaincongruences for the Ф^j. E.g., ifq ∈ {3,5,11}, each number Фj is congruent modulo 4 to each other iff 2 dividesh _2q ^- . Finally we study thevariance of the excesses, i.e., the number \(\sigma ^2 = ((\Phi _0 - \hat \Phi )^2 + \ldots + (\Phi _{q - 1} - \hat \Phi )^2 )/(q - 1)\) , where \(\hat \Phi \) is the mean value of the numbers Ф_j. We obtain an explicit lower bound for σ² in terms ofh _2q ^- /h ₂ ^- . Moreover, we show that log σ² is asymptotically equal to 21og(h _2q ^- h ₂ ^- )/(q - 1) forp→∞. Three tables illustrate the results.     

On bounds for solutions to nonlinear wave equations in Hilbert space with applications to nonlinear elastodynamics

For the nonlinear wave equationu _tt -Nu +G(t,u, u _t ) = ? in Hilbert space, with associated homogeneous initial data, we show how ana priori bound of the form ∫ ₀ ^T ∥G(τ,u, u _τ)∥² dτ ≤ κ ∫ ₀ ^T ∥?(τ)∥² dτ leads to upper and lower bounds for ∥u∥ in terms of ∥?∥. An application to nonlinear elastodynamics is presented.     

A moment theorem for completely hyperexpansive operators

Given a family $ \{ A_m^x \} _{\mathop {m \in \mathbb{Z}_ + ^d }\limits_{x \in X} } $ (X is a non-empty set) of bounded linear operators between the complex inner product space $ \mathcal{D} $ and the complex Hilbert space ? we characterize the existence of completely hyperexpansive d-tuples T = (T ₁, … , T _d ) on ? such that A _m ^x = T ^m A ₀ ^x for all m ? ? ₊ ^d and x ? X.     

On Rational Pairings of Functors

In the theory of coalgebras C over a ring R, the rational functor relates the category $_{C^*}{\mathbb{M}}$ of modules over the algebra C ^* (with convolution product) with the category $^C{\mathbb{M}}$ of comodules over C. This is based on the pairing of the algebra C ^* with the coalgebra C provided by the evaluation map ${\rm ev}:C^*\otimes_R C\to R$ . The (rationality) condition under consideration ensures that $^C{\mathbb{M}}$ becomes a coreflective full subcategory of $_{C^*}{\mathbb{M}}$ . We generalise this situation by defining a pairing between endofunctors T and G on any category ${\mathbb{A}}$ as a map, natural in $a,b\in {\mathbb{A}}$ , $$ \beta_{a,b}:{\mathbb{A}}(a, G(b)) \to {\mathbb{A}}(T(a),b), $$ and we call it rational if these all are injective. In case T?=?(T, m _T , e _T ) is a monad and G?=?(G, δ _G , ε _G ) is a comonad on ${\mathbb{A}}$ , additional compatibility conditions are imposed on a pairing between T and G. If such a pairing is given and is rational, and T has a right adjoint monad T ^???, we construct a rational functor as the functor-part of an idempotent comonad on the T-modules ${\mathbb{A}}_{T}$ which generalises the crucial properties of the rational functor for coalgebras. As a special case we consider pairings on monoidal categories.     

Weighted norm inequalities for the vectorvalued Hardy-Littlewood maximal functions of one parameter rectangles

Let N denote the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator for the familyR of one parameter rectangles. In this paper, we obtain that for 1 _w ^p (l^r) to L _W ^P (l^r) if and only if w ∈ A_P(R); for 1≤p<∞, N is bounded from L _W ^P (l^r) to weak L _W ^P (l^r) if and only if W ∈ A_P(R). Here we say W∈A_p (1), if $$\begin{gathered} \mathop {sup}\limits_{R \in R} \left( {\tfrac{1}{{|R|}}\smallint _r wdx} \right)\left( {\tfrac{1}{{|R|}}\smallint _R w^{ - 1/(p - 1)} dx} \right)^{p - 1}< \infty ,1< p< \infty , \hfill \\ (Nw)(x) \leqslant Cw(x)a.e.,p = 1 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ ,     

The maximal Fejér operator on the spacesH p (R×···×R)

It is shown that the maximal operator of the Fejér means of a tempered distribution is bounded from thed-dimensional Hardy spaceH _p (R×···×R) toL _p (R ^d ) (1/2<p<∞) and is of weak type (H ₁ ^?i ,L ₁) (i=1,…,d), where the Hardy spaceH ₁ ^?i is defined by a hybrid maximal function. As a consequence, we obtain that the Fejér means of a functionf ∈H ₁ ^?i ?L(logL) ^d?1 converge a.e. to the function in question. Moreover, we prove that the Fejér means are uniformly bounded onH _p (R×···×R) whenever 1/2<p<∞. Thus, in casef ∈H _p (R×···×R) the Fejér means converge tof inH _p (R×···×R) norm. The same results are proved for the conjugate Fejér means, too.

Difference Sets in {\mathbb{Z}}_4^m and {\mathbb{F}}_2^{2m}

Let R=GR(4,m) be the Galois ring of cardinality 4^m and let T be the Teichmüller system of R. For every map λ of T into { -1,+1} and for every permutation Π of T, we define a map φ _λ ^Π of Rinto { -1,+1} as follows: if x∈R and if x=a+2b is the 2-adic representation of x with x∈T and b∈T, then φ _λ ^Π (x)=λ(a)+2Tr(Π(a)b), where Tr is the trace function of R . For i=1 or i=-1, define D _i as the set of x in R such thatφ _λ ^Π =i. We prove the following results: 1) D _i is a Hadamard difference set of (R,+). 2) If φ is the Gray map of R into ${\mathbb{F}}_2^{2m}$ , then (D _i) is a difference set of ${\mathbb{F}}_2^{2m}$ . 3) The set of D _i and the set of φ(D _i) obtained for all maps λ and Π, both are one-to-one image of the set of binary Maiorana-McFarland difference sets in a simple way. We also prove that special multiplicative subgroups of R are difference sets of kind D _i in the additive group of R. Examples are given by means of morphisms and norm in R.     

Sebestyén's Moment Problem And Regular Dilations

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a double indexed sequence {h _m ⁿ } of vectors in a Hilbert space such that it can be represented in the form h _m ⁿ = T ^m S ⁿ h ₀ ⁰ , (?)m, n ∈ N, where (T,S) is a pair of commuting contractions having regular unitary dilation.     

The annihilator of Bergman space

LetD be a bounded plane domain (with some smoothness requirements on its boundary). LetB _p(D), 1≤p<∞, be the Bergmanp-space ofD. In a previous paper we showed that the “natural projection”P, involving the Bergman kernel forD, is a bounded projection fromL _p(D) ontoB _p(D), 1<p<∞. With this we have the decompositionL _p(D)=B _p(D)⊕B _q ^⊥ (D,p ^–1+q ^–=1, 1<p< ∞. Here, we show that the annihilatorB _q ^⊥ (D) is the space of allL _p-complex derivatives of functions belonging to Sobolev space and which vanish on the boundary ofD. This extends a result of Schiffer for the casep=2. We also study certain operators onL _p(D). Especially, we show that , whereI is the identity operator and ? is an operator involving the adjoint of the Bergman kernel. Other relationships relevant toB _q ^⊥ (D) are studied.     

Approximation of classes of convolutions by linear operators of special form

A parametric family of operators G _ρ is constructed for the class of convolutions W _p,m (K) whose kernel K was generated by the moment sequence. We obtain a formula for evaluating $E(W_{p,m} (K);G_\rho )_p : = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{f \in W_{p,m} (K)} \left\| {f - G_\rho (f)} \right\|_p .$ . For the case in which W _p,m (K)=W _r,β ^p,m , we obtain an expansion in powers of the parameter ?=?ln ρ for E(W _p,m ^r,β ; G _ρ,r ) _p , where β ∈ ?, γ > 0, and m ∈ ?, while p = 1 or p = ∞.     

Sharp estimates for operator\bar \partial _M on aq-concave CR manifoldon aq-concave CR manifold

An embedding theorem for a weighted space of Sobolev type and correct solvability of the Sturm-Liouville equation

We consider the weighted space W ₁ ⁽²⁾ (?,q) of Sobolev type $$W_1^{(2)} (\mathbb{R},q) = \left\{ {y \in A_{loc}^{(1)} (\mathbb{R}):\left\| {y''} \right\|_{L_1 (\mathbb{R})} + \left\| {qy} \right\|_{L_1 (\mathbb{R})} < \infty } \right\} $$ and the equation $$ - y''(x) + q(x)y(x) = f(x),x \in \mathbb{R} $$ Here f ε L ₁(?) and 0 ? q ∈ L ₁ ^loc (?). We prove the following:

1. The problems of embedding W ₁ ⁽²⁾ (?q) ? L ₁(?) and of correct solvability of (1) in L ₁(?) are equivalent
2. an embedding W ₁ ⁽²⁾ (?,q) ? L ₁(?) exists if and only if $$\exists a > 0:\mathop {\inf }\limits_{x \in R} \int_{x - a}^{x + a} {q(t)dt > 0} $$

     

Duals of Hardy Spaces of B-valued Martingales for 0<r≤1

The dual of B-valued martingale Hardy space Hs(p)r(B) with small index 0 r ≤ 1,which is associated with the conditional p-variation of B-valued martingale,is characterized.In order to obtain the results,a new type of Campanato spaces for B-valued martingales is introduced and the classical technique of atomic decompositions is improved.Some results obtained here are connected closely with the p-uniform smoothness and q-uniform convexity of the underlying Banach space.     

Another remark on twisted convolution

SiaF un gruppo di Lie connesso. Una distribuzioneT a supporto compatto inF e un 2-cociclo diF a valori complessi di modulo 1, definiscono, mediante la convoluzione «twisted», un operatore lineareT _c nello spazio (F). Per il «cociclo triviale»e≡1 l'operatoreT _e è la convoluzione ordinaria. Si dimostra cheT _c permette un'estensione continua suL ^p (F), 1T _e permette una tale estensione. PerF=C _n si ottiene, come caso speciale, un teorema di M. Cowling.     

The limits of determinacy in second order arithmetic: consistency and complexity strength

We prove that determinacy for all Boolean combinations of \({F_{\sigma \delta }}\) (Π ₃ ⁰ ) sets implies the consistency of second-order arithmetic and more. Indeed, it is equivalent to the statement saying that for every set X and every number n, there exists a β-model of Π _n ¹ -comprehension containing X. We prove this result by providing a careful level-by-level analysis of determinacy at the finite level of the difference hierarchy on \({F_{\sigma \delta }}\) (Π ₃ ⁰ ) sets in terms of both reverse mathematics, complexity and consistency strength. We show that, for n ≥ 1, determinacy for sets at the nth level in this difference hierarchy lies strictly between (in the reverse mathematical sense of logical implication) the existence of β-models of Π _n+2 ¹ -comprehension containing any given set X, and the existence of β-models of Δ _n+2 ¹ -comprehension containing any given set X. Thus the nth of these determinacy axioms lies strictly between Π _n+2 ¹ -comprehension and Δ _n+2 ¹ -comprehension in terms of consistency strength. The major new technical result on which these proof theoretic ones are based is a complexity theoretic one. The nth determinacy axiom implies closure under the operation taking a set X to the least Σ _n+1 admissible containing X (for n = 1; this is due to Welch [9]).     

Dichotomies for Lorentz spaces

Assume that L ^p,q , $L^{p_1 ,q_1 } ,...,L^{p_n ,q_n } $ are Lorentz spaces. This article studies the question: what is the size of the set $E = \{ (f_1 ,...,f_n ) \in L^{p_{1,} q_1 } \times \cdots \times L^{p_n ,q_n } :f_1 \cdots f_n \in L^{p,q} \} $ . We prove the following dichotomy: either $E = L^{p_1 ,q_1 } \times \cdots \times L^{p_n ,q_n } $ or E is σ-porous in $L^{p_1 ,q_1 } \times \cdots \times L^{p_n ,q_n } $ , provided 1/p ≠ 1/p ₁ + … + 1/p _n . In general case we obtain that either $E = L^{p_1 ,q_1 } \times \cdots \times L^{p_n ,q_n } $ or E is meager. This is a generalization of the results for classical L ^p spaces.
