Kolmogorov and linear widths of weighted Besov classes

We study the Kolmogorov m-widths and the linear m-widths of the weighted Besov classes on [−1,1], where Lq,μ, 1?q?∞, denotes the Lq space on [−1,1] with respect to the measure , μ>0. Optimal asymptotic orders of and as m→∞ are obtained for all 1?p,τ?∞. It turns out that in many cases, the orders of are significantly smaller than the corresponding orders of the best m-term approximation by ultraspherical polynomials, which is somewhat surprising.     

Fractional integrals on weighted Hardy spaces

In this paper, applying the atomic decomposition and molecular characterization of the real weighted Hardy spaces , we give the weighted boundedness of the homogeneous fractional integral operator from to , and from to .     

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‖.     

The logarithmic derivative of areally mean p-valent functions

Let denote the class of functions f which are areally mean p-valent and have k maximal growth directions in Δ={z:|z|<1}. In this paper we give an asymptotic formula of the mean square of the logarithmic derivative f′/f for with some restricted condition. This generalizes the corresponding result in [J. Anal. Math. 36 (1979) 36-43]. Also we construct a function which does not satisfy this asymptotic formula.     

Precise rates in complete moment convergence for ρ-mixing sequences

Let X₁,X₂,… be a strictly stationary sequence of ρ-mixing random variables with mean zeros and positive, finite variances, set Sn=X₁+?+Xn. Suppose that , , where q>2δ+2. We prove that, if for any 0<δ?1, then

     

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.     

Reflection about k-jets and holomorphic extension of CR mappings

Let be a CR mapping between real analytic generic submanifolds M, M₁ of and , respectively. According to Webster's theory (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 86 (1982) 236-240) and its further developments, f has holomorphic extension to a full neighborhood of M in when the following requirements are fulfilled: f extends to a wedge W continuous up to M; f is of class C^k; (where denotes the complex tangent bundle); M₁ is “k-nondegenerate.” We deal here with the case where is strictly smaller than but is still real analytic in suitable sense. We show that a suitably refined condition of k-nondegeneracy still entails holomorphic extension of f.     

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.     

Decompositions of Besov-Hausdorff and Triebel-Lizorkin-Hausdorff spaces and their applications

Let p∈(1,∞), q∈[1,∞), s∈R and . In this paper, the authors establish the φ-transform characterizations of Besov-Hausdorff spaces and Triebel-Lizorkin-Hausdorff spaces (q>1); as applications, the authors then establish their embedding properties (which on is also sharp), smooth atomic and molecular decomposition characterizations for suitable τ. Moreover, using their atomic and molecular decomposition characterizations, the authors investigate the trace properties and the boundedness of pseudo-differential operators with homogeneous symbols in and (q>1), which generalize the corresponding classical results on homogeneous Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces when p∈(1,∞) and q∈[1,∞) by taking τ=0.     

Continuous selection theorems for nonlower semicontinuous multifunctions

Selective approximate identities for orthogonal polynomial sequences

Let be an orthogonal polynomial sequence on the real line with respect to a probability measure π with compact support S. For y∈S, a sequence of polynomials is called a selective approximate identity with respect to y if for all f∈C(S). We prove the existence and give a complete characterization of a selective approximate identity depending on . A Fejér-like construction is performed and is considered in the context of Nevai class M(b,a) and Nevai's G-operator.     

Bounded Toeplitz products on the weighted Bergman spaces of the unit ball

Let p>1 and let q denote the number such that (1/p)+(1/q)=1. We give a necessary condition for the product of Toeplitz operators to be bounded on the weighted Bergman space of the unit ball (α>−1), where and , as well as a sufficient condition for to be bounded on . We use techniques different from those in [K. Stroethoff, D. Zheng, Bounded Toeplitz products on Bergman spaces of the unit ball, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 325 (2007) 114-129], in which the case p=2 was proved.

Let G be a compact abelian group with the totally ordered dual group which admits the positive semigroup . Let N be a von Neumann algebra and be an automorphism group of on N. We denote to the analytic crossed product determined by N and α. We show that if is a maximal σ-weakly closed subalgebra of , then induces an archimedean order in .
