Finite extinction time for some perturbed Hamilton-Jacobi equations

In this paper we study initial value problems likeu _t–R¦u¦^m+u^q=0 in ⁿ× ₊, u(·,0⁺)=u_o(·) in ^N, whereR > 0, 0 <q < 1,m 1, andu _o is a positive uniformly continuous function verifying –R¦u _o¦^m+u ₀ ^q 0 in ^N . We show the existence of the minimum nonnegative continuous viscosity solutionu, as well as the existence of the function t(·) defined byu(x, t) > 0 if 0<t<t (x) andu(x, t)=0 ift t (x). Regularity, extinction rate, and asymptotic behavior of t(x) are also studied. Moreover, form=1 we obtain the representation formulau(x, t)=max{([(u _o(x – t))^1–q –(1–q)t]₊)^1/(1–q): ¦¦R}, (x, t) ₊ ^N+1 .Partially supported by the DGICYT No. 86/0405 project.

Asymptotic stability at infinity of planar vector fields

Let >0 andX be aC ¹ vector field on the plane such that: (i) for allq², Det(DX(q))>0; and (ii) for allp², with p, Trace(D(X(p))<0. IfX has a singularity and ² Trace(DX)dxdy is less than 0 (resp. greater or equal than 0), then the point at infinity of the Riemann sphere ²{} is a repellor (resp. an attractor) ofX.

The caratheodory number for thek-core

Thek-core of the setS ⁿ is the intersection of the convex hull of all setsA S with ¦SA¦<-k. The Caratheodory number of thek-core is the smallest integerf (d,k) with the property thatx core _{kS, S} ⁿ implies the existence of a subsetT S such thatx core_kT and ¦T¦f (d, k). In this paper various properties off(d, k) are established.Research of this author was partially supported by Hungarian National Science Foundation grant no. 1812.     

Une caracterisation du type de la loi de Cauchy-conforme sur ℝ n

Résumé La loi de Cauchy-conforme est la mesure de probabilité sur ⁿ de densitéC/(1+X²)ⁿ. Le type d'une mesure sur ⁿ étant l'ensemble des mesures images de par les similitudes-translations de ⁿ et étant une mesure de probabilité sans atome, on démontre que le type de est invariant par les inversions de ⁿ si et seulement si est du type de la loi de Cauchy-conforme.

---

The conformal Cauchy law is the probability on ⁿ with densityC/(1+X²)ⁿ. It is shown that for a non-atomic measure on ⁿ the following is true: its type is invariant under inversions of ⁿ if and only if it is the type of a conformal Cauchy law. (The type of a measure is defined as the set of its images under similarities and translations.)

     

Brownian charges around loops

Summary Let (X _t ⁿ ) be a Poisson sequence of independent Brownian motions in ^d ,d3; Let be a compact oriented submanifold of d, of dimensiond–2 and volume ; let t be the sum of the windings of (X _s ⁿ , 0st) around ; then t/t converges in law towards a Cauchy variable of parameter /2. A similar result is valid when the winding is replaced by the integral of a harmonic 1-form in ^d .     

The central limit theorem for Chébli-Trimèche hypergroups

Let (S _nn>-1) be a random walk on a hypergroup ( ₊ , *), i.e., a Markov chain with transition kernelN(x, A) = _x * (A), where is a fixed probability measure on ₊ such that the second moment exists. Then depending on the growth of the hypergroup two situations can occur: when ( ₊ , *) is of exponential growth then it is shown thatS _n is asymptotically normal. In the case of polynomial growth {more precisely, if the densityA of the Haar measure of ( ₊ , *) satisfies lim[A()/A()]=}, the normalized variablesS _n/[n Var()/(+1)]^1/2 converge to a Rayleigh distribution with parameter .

Ouverts d"harmonicité pour les fonctions séparément harmoniques

Let D ^N , G ^M be two open sets, E D and F G two compact sets which satisfy the condition (H) (that is a harmonic condition similar to Leja"s condition). We find an open set ^N+M such that each separately harmonic function f : X : = (D× F) (E × G) (i.e.: for all x in E, f(x,.) is harmonic on G; for all y in F, f(., y) is harmonic on D) extends to a harmonic function on .     

C 1 changes of variable: Beurling-Helson type theorem and Hörmander conjecture on Fourier multipliers

We prove that if aC ¹ smooth change of variable : generates a bounded composition operatorff° in the spaceA _p()=L ^p ,p2, then is linear (affine).We also prove that for a nonlinearC ¹ mapping , the norms of exponentialse ⁱ as Fourier multipliers inL ^p () tend to infinity (,||). In both results the condition C ¹ is sharp, it cannot be replaced by the Lipschitz condition.     

Perturbation of the Laplacian by the Coulomb potential and a point interaction in L p (ℝ)3

Perturbations of -+/|x| (with >0) by a point interaction centered at zero are defined in L ^p(³). This is done for 3/20 (³{0}), such that the extension is the negative generator of an analytic semigroup on L ^p(³).

Operator stable laws: Series representations and domains of normal attraction

LetX,X ₁,X ₂,... be i.i.d. random vectors in ^d. The limit laws that can arise by suitable affine normalizations of the partial sums,S _n=X ₁+...+X _n, are calledoperator-stable laws. These laws are a natural extension to ^d of the stable laws on. Thegeneralized domain of attraction of [GDOA()] is comprised of all random vectorsX whose partial sums can be affinely normalized to converge to . If the linear part of the affine transformation is restricted to take the formn ^–B for some exponent operatorB naturally associated to thenX is in thegeneralized domain of normal attraction of [GDONA()]. This paper extends the theory of operator-stable laws and their domains of attraction and normal attraction.     

Über den algorithmischen Nachweis von Ungleichungen I

We shall develop a method to prove inequalities in a unified manner. The idea is as follows: It is quite often possible to find a continuous functional : ⁿ , such that the left- and the right-hand side of a given inequality can be written in the form (u)(v) for suitable points,v=v(u). If one now constructs a map ^{n n} , which is functional increasing (i.e. for each x ⁿ (which is not a fixed point of ) the inequality (x)<((x)) should hold) one specially gets the chain (u)( u))( ²(u))... ⁿ (u)). Under quite general conditions one finds that the sequence { ⁿ (u)} _n converges tov=v(u). As a consequence one obtains the inequality (u)(v).     

Weak solutions of the Stokes problem in weighted Sobolev spaces

For n2 we consider the Stokes problem in ⁿ, -u + p=f, -divu=g, in weighted Soboiev spaces H ₆ ^m,r , where the weights are proportional to (1+|x|). We prove the existence of weak solutions for any K, whereK is a discrete set of critical values. Furthermore, we characterize the solutions of the homogeneous problem.This research was supported by the DFG research group Equations of Hydrodynamics, Universities of Bayreuth and Paderborn.     

A functional inequality characterizing convex functions,conjugacy and a generalization of Hölder's and Minkowski's inequalities

Summary The main result says that, iff: _{+ +} satisfies the functional inequalityaf(s) + bf(t) f (as + bt) (s,t 0) for somea, b such that 0 <a < 1 <a + b, thenf(t) = f(1)t, (t 0). A relevant result for the reverse inequality is also discussed. Applying these results we determine the form of all functionsf: _k ⁺ ₊ satisying the above inequalities. This leads to a characterization of both concave and convex functions defined on ₊ ^k–1 , to a notion of conjugate functions and to a general inequality which contains Hölder's and Minkowski's inequalities as very special cases.     

Some remarks on the boundary regularity for minima of variational problems with obstacles

We minimize the Dirichlet-integral in a class of vector-valued functions u:^N defined by Dirichlet-boundary conditions and a side-condition of the form u()M with M bounded and open in ^N having smooth boundary M. If the boundary values are sufficiently regular we show that the minimizer can only have interior singularities, i.e. the solution is smooth in a neighborhood of .     

Conditions for separately subharmonic functions to be subharmonic

Letu be a function on ^m × ⁿ , wherem2 andn2, such thatu(x, .) is subharmonic on ⁿ for each fixedx in ^m andu(.,y) is subharmonic on ^m for each fixedy in ⁿ . We give a local integrability condition which ensures the subharmonicity ofu on ^m × ⁿ , and we show that this condition is close to being sharp. In particular, the local integrability of (log⁺ u ⁺) ^m+n–2+ is enough to secure the subharmonicity ofu if >0, but not if <0.
