Symmetric diameter two graphs with affine-type vertex-quasiprimitive automorphism group

We study the class of G-symmetric graphs Γ with diameter 2, where G is an affine-type quasiprimitive group on the vertex set of Γ. These graphs arise from normal quotient analysis as basic graphs in the class of symmetric diameter 2 graphs. It is known that ${G \cong V \rtimes G_0}$ , where V is a finite-dimensional vector space over a finite field and G ₀ is an irreducible subgroup of GL (V), and Γ is a Cayley graph on V. In particular, we consider the case where ${V = \mathbb {F}_p^d}$ for some prime p and G ₀ is maximal in GL (d, p), with G ₀ belonging to the Aschbacher classes ${\mathcal {C}_2, \mathcal {C}_4, \mathcal {C}_6, \mathcal {C}_7}$ , and ${\mathcal {C}_8}$ . For ${G_0 \in \mathcal {C}_i, i = 2,4,8}$ , we determine all diameter 2 graphs which arise. For ${G_0 \in \mathcal {C}_6, \mathcal {C}_7}$ we obtain necessary conditions for diameter 2, which restrict the number of unresolved cases to be investigated, and in some special cases determine all diameter 2 graphs.     

Complete intersection toric ideals of oriented graphs and chorded-theta subgraphs

Let G=(V,E) be a finite, simple graph. We consider for each oriented graph $G_{\mathcal{O}}$ associated to an orientation ${\mathcal{O}}$ of the edges of G, the toric ideal $P_{G_{\mathcal{O}}}$ . In this paper we study those graphs with the property that $P_{G_{\mathcal{O}}}$ is a binomial complete intersection, for all ${\mathcal{O}}$ . These graphs are called $\text{CI}{\mathcal{O}}$ graphs. We prove that these graphs can be constructed recursively as clique-sums of cycles and/or complete graphs. We introduce chorded-theta subgraphs and some of their properties. Also we establish that the $\text{CI}{\mathcal{O}}$ graphs are determined by the property that each chorded-theta has a transversal triangle. Finally we explicitly give the minimal forbidden induced subgraphs that characterize these graphs, these families of forbidden graphs are: prisms, pyramids, thetas and a particular family of wheels that we call θ-partial wheels.     

Completely continuous and weakly completely continuous abstract Segal algebras

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a Banach algebra. It is obtained a necessary and sufficient condition for the complete continuity and also weak complete continuity of symmetric abstract Segal algebras with respect to $\mathcal{A}$ , under the condition of the existence of an approximate identity for $\mathcal{B}$ , bounded in $\mathcal{A}$ . In addition, a necessary condition for the weak complete continuity of $\mathcal{A}$ is given. Moreover, the applications of these results about some group algebras on locally compact groups are obtained.     

Spectra of tensor triangulated categories over category algebras

Let \({\mathcal{C}}\) be a finite EI category and k be a field. We consider the category algebra \({k\mathcal{C}}\) . Suppose \({\sf{K}(\mathcal{C})=\sf{D}^b(k \mathcal{C}-\sf{mod})}\) is the bounded derived category of finitely generated left modules. This is a tensor triangulated category, and we compute its spectrum in the sense of Balmer. When \({\mathcal{C}=G \propto \mathcal{P}}\) is a finite transporter category, the category algebra becomes Gorenstein, so we can define the stable module category \({\underline{\sf{CM}} k(G \propto \mathcal{P})}\) , of maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules, as a quotient category of \({{\sf{K}}(G \propto \mathcal{P})}\) . Since \({\underline{\sf{CM}} k(G\propto\mathcal{P})}\) is also tensor triangulated, we compute its spectrum as well. These spectra are used to classify tensor ideal thick subcategories of the corresponding tensor triangulated categories.     

A-Systems, Independent Functions, and Sets Bounded in Spaces of Measurable Functions

Let $U \subset L_o ([0,1],\mathcal{M},m)$ be a set of Lebesgue measurable functions. Suppose also that two seminormed spaces of real number sequences are given: $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ . We study $\left( {\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B}} \right)$ -sets U defined by the classes $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ as follows: $\forall a = (a_n ) \in \mathcal{A}, \forall (f_n (t)) \in u^\mathbb{N} $ (or for sequences similar to $(f_n (t))$ ) $\exists E = E(a) \subset [0,1], mE = 1$ such that $\{ a_n f_n (t)\} 1_E (t)\} \in \mathcal{B}, t \in [0,1]$ . We consider three versions of the definition of $\left( {\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B}} \right)$ -sets, one of which is based on functions independent in the probability sense. The case ${\mathcal{B}}=l_\infty$ is studied in detail. It is shown that $({\mathcal{A}},l_\infty)$ -independent sets are sets bounded or order bounded in some well-known function spaces (L _p , L _p,q , etc.) constructed with respect to the Lebesgue measure. A characterization of such sets in terms of seminormed spaces of number sequences is given. The (l ₁,c _°)- and $(\mathcal{A},l_1 )$ -sets were studied by E. M. Nikishin.     

{\boldsymbol(}\boldsymbol{\mathcal{Z}}_{\bf 1}, \boldsymbol{\mathcal{Z}}_{\bf 2}{\boldsymbol)}-Complete Partially Ordered Sets and Their Representations by \boldsymbol{\mathcal{Q}}-Spaces

The present paper proposes a general theory for $\left( \mathcal{Z}_{1}, \mathcal{Z}_{2}\right) $ -complete partially ordered sets (alias $\mathcal{Z} _{1}$ -join complete and $\mathcal{Z}_{2}$ -meet complete partially ordered sets) and their Stone-like representations. It is shown that for suitably chosen subset selections $\mathcal{Z}_{i}$ (i?=?1,...,4) and $\mathcal{Q} =\left( \mathcal{Z}_{1},\mathcal{Z}_{2},\mathcal{Z}_{3},\mathcal{Z} _{4}\right) $ , the category $\mathcal{Q}$ P of $\left( \mathcal{Z}_{1},\mathcal{Z}_{2}\right) $ -complete partially ordered sets and $\left( \mathcal{Z}_{3},\mathcal{Z}_{4}\right) $ -continuous (alias $\mathcal{ Z}_{3}$ -join preserving and $\mathcal{Z}_{4}$ -meet preserving) functions forms a useful categorical framework for various order-theoretical constructs, and has a close connection with the category $\mathcal{Q}$ S of $\mathcal{Q}$ -spaces which are generalizations of topological spaces involving subset selections. In particular, this connection turns into a dual equivalence between the full subcategory $ \mathcal{Q}$ P _s of $\mathcal{Q}$ P of all $\mathcal{Q}$ -spatial objects and the full subcategory $\mathcal{Q}$ S _s of $\mathcal{Q}$ S of all $\mathcal{Q}$ -sober objects. Here $\mathcal{Q}$ -spatiality and $\mathcal{Q}$ -sobriety extend usual notions of spatiality of locales and sobriety of topological spaces to the present approach, and their relations to $\mathcal{Z}$ -compact generation and $\mathcal{Z}$ -sobriety have also been pointed out in this paper.     

An Analog of the Cameron--Johnson Theorem for Linear ℂ-Analytic Equations in Hilbert Space

The well-known Cameron--Johnson theorem asserts that the equation $\dot x = \mathcal{A}\left( t \right)x$ with a recurrent (Bohr almost periodic) matrix $\mathcal{A}\left( t \right)$ can be reduced by a Lyapunov transformation to the equation $\dot y = \mathcal{B}\left( t \right)y$ with a skew-symmetric matrix $\mathcal{B}\left( t \right)$ , provided that all solutions of the equation $\dot x = \mathcal{A}\left( t \right)x$ and of all its limit equations are bounded on the whole line. In the note, a generalization of this result to linear $\mathbb{C}$ -analytic equations in a Hilbert space is presented.     

An extension of one direction in Marty’s normality criterion

We prove the following extension of one direction in Marty’s theorem: If $k$ is a natural number, $\alpha >1$ and $\mathcal{F }$ is a family of functions meromorphic on a domain $D$ all of whose poles have multiplicity at least $\frac{k}{\alpha -1}$ , then the normality of $\mathcal{F }$ implies that the family $$\begin{aligned} \left\{ \frac{|f^{(k)}|}{1+|f|^\alpha }\,:\, f\in \mathcal{F }\right\} \end{aligned}$$ is locally uniformly bounded.     

Composition Operators on Spaces of Fractional Cauchy Transforms

For ?? > 0, the Banach space ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ is defined as the collection of functions f which can be represented as integral transforms of an appropriate kernel against a Borel measure defined on the unit circle T. Let ?? be an analytic self-map of the unit disc D. The map ?? induces a composition operator on ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ if ${C_{\Phi}(f) = f \circ \Phi \in \mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ for any function ${f \in \mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ . Various conditions on ?? are given, sufficient to imply that C _?? is bounded on ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ , in the case 0 < ?? < 1. Several of the conditions involve ???? and the theory of multipliers of the space ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ . Relations are found between the behavior of C _?? and the membership of ?? in the Dirichlet spaces. Conditions given in terms of the generalized Nevanlinna counting function are shown to imply that ?? induces a bounded composition operator on ${\mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ , in the case 1/2 ?? ?? < 1. For such ??, examples are constructed such that ${\| \Phi \|_{\infty} = 1}$ and ${C_{\Phi}: \mathcal{F}_{\alpha} \rightarrow \mathcal{F}_{\alpha}}$ is bounded.     

AW*-algebras Which are Enveloping C*-algebras of JC-algebras

In the given article, enveloping C*-algebras of AJW-algebras are considered. Conditions are given, when the enveloping C*-algebra of an AJW-algebra is an AW*-algebra, and corresponding theorems are proved. In particular, we proved that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a real AW*-algebra, $\mathcal{A}_{sa}$ is the JC-algebra of all self-adjoint elements of $\mathcal{A}$ , $\mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ is an AW*-algebra and $\mathcal{A}\cap i\mathcal{A} = \{0\}$ then the enveloping C*-algebra $C^*(\mathcal{A}_{sa})$ of the JC-algebra $\mathcal{A}_{sa}$ is an AW*-algebra. Moreover, if $\mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ does not have nonzero direct summands of type I₂, then $C^*(\mathcal{A}_{sa})$ coincides with the algebra $\mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ , i.e. $C^*(\mathcal{A}_{sa})= \mathcal{A}+i\mathcal{A}$ .     

Some results on metric n-Lie algebras

We study the structure of a metric n-Lie algebra G over the complex field C. Let G = SR be the Levi decomposition, where R is the radical of G and S is a strong semisimple subalgebra of G. Denote by m(G) the number of all minimal ideals of an indecomposable metric n-Lie algebra and R ⊥ the orthogonal complement of R. We obtain the following results. As S-modules, R ⊥ is isomorphic to the dual module of G/R. The dimension of the vector space spanned by all nondegenerate invariant symmetric bilinear forms on G is equal to that of the vector space of certain linear transformations on G; this dimension is greater than or equal to m(G) + 1. The centralizer of R in G is equal to the sum of all minimal ideals; it is the direct sum of R ⊥ and the center of G. Finally, G has no strong semisimple ideals if and only if R⊥■R.     

A zoo of diffeomorphism groups on \mathbb{R }^{n}

We consider the groups ${\mathrm{Diff }}_\mathcal{B }(\mathbb{R }^n)$ , ${\mathrm{Diff }}_{H^\infty }(\mathbb{R }^n)$ , and ${\mathrm{Diff }}_{\mathcal{S }}(\mathbb{R }^n)$ of smooth diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{R }^n$ which differ from the identity by a function which is in either $\mathcal{B }$ (bounded in all derivatives), $H^\infty = \bigcap _{k\ge 0}H^k$ , or $\mathcal{S }$ (rapidly decreasing). We show that all these groups are smooth regular Lie groups.     

A remark on maximal functions for noncommutative martingales

Let ${\mathcal{M}}$ be a finite von Neumann algebra equipped with a normal tracial state τ. It is shown that if ${\{x_n\}_{n\geq1}}$ is a sequence of positive marginales that is bounded in ${L^1(\mathcal{M},\mathcal{T})}$ , then for every 0 < p < 1, there exists ${y \in L^p(\mathcal{M},\mathcal{T})}$ satisfying the property that ${x_n \leq y}$ for all ${n\geq 1}$ . Thus we obtain a noncommutative analogue of a maximal function theorem from classical martingale theory.     

Hypercentralizing generalized skew derivations on left ideals in prime rings

Let $\mathcal{R }$ be a prime ring of characteristic different from $2, \mathcal{Q }_r$ the right Martindale quotient ring of $\mathcal{R }, \mathcal{C }$ the extended centroid of $\mathcal{R }, \mathcal{I }$ a nonzero left ideal of $\mathcal{R }, F$ a nonzero generalized skew derivation of $\mathcal{R }$ with associated automorphism $\alpha $ , and $n,k \ge 1$ be fixed integers. If $[F(r^n),r^n]_k=0$ for all $r \in \mathcal{I }$ , then there exists $\lambda \in \mathcal{C }$ such that $F(x)=\lambda x$ , for all $x\in \mathcal{I }$ . More precisely one of the following holds: (1) $\alpha $ is an $X$ -inner automorphism of $\mathcal{R }$ and there exist $b,c \in \mathcal{Q }_r$ and $q$ invertible element of $\mathcal{Q }_r$ , such that $F(x)=bx-qxq^{-1}c$ , for all $x\in \mathcal{Q }_r$ . Moreover there exists $\gamma \in \mathcal{C }$ such that $\mathcal{I }(q^{-1}c-\gamma )=(0)$ and $b-\gamma q \in \mathcal{C }$ ; (2) $\alpha $ is an $X$ -outer automorphism of $\mathcal{R }$ and there exist $c \in \mathcal{Q }_r, \lambda \in \mathcal{C }$ , such that $F(x)=\lambda x-\alpha (x)c$ , for all $x\in \mathcal{Q }_r$ , with $\alpha (\mathcal{I })c=0$ .     

Ranks of backward shift invariant subspaces of the Hardy space over the bidisk

Let $\{\varphi _n(z)\}_{n\ge 0}$ be a sequence of inner functions satisfying that $\zeta _n(z):=\varphi _n(z)/\varphi _{n+1}(z)\in H^\infty (z)$ for every $n\ge 0$ and $\{\varphi _n(z)\}_{n\ge 0}$ has no nonconstant common inner divisors. Associated with it, we have a Rudin type invariant subspace $\mathcal{M }$ of $H^2(\mathbb{D }^2)$ . The ranks of $\mathcal{M }\ominus w\mathcal{M }$ for $\mathcal{F }_z$ and $\mathcal{F }^*_z$ respectively are determined, where $\mathcal{F }_z$ is the fringe operator on $\mathcal{M }\ominus w\mathcal{M }$ . Let $\mathcal{N }= H^2(\mathbb{D }^2)\ominus \mathcal{M }$ . It is also proved that the rank of $\mathcal{M }\ominus w\mathcal{M }$ for $\mathcal{F }^*_z$ equals to the rank of $\mathcal{N }$ for $T^*_z$ and $T^*_w$ .     

A construction for infinite families of semisymmetric graphs revealing their full automorphism group

We give a general construction leading to different non-isomorphic families $\varGamma_{n,q}(\mathcal{K})$ of connected q-regular semisymmetric graphs of order 2q ⁿ⁺¹ embedded in $\operatorname{PG}(n+1,q)$ , for a prime power q=p ^h , using the linear representation of a particular point set $\mathcal{K}$ of size q contained in a hyperplane of $\operatorname{PG}(n+1,q)$ . We show that, when $\mathcal{K}$ is a normal rational curve with one point removed, the graphs $\varGamma_{n,q}(\mathcal{K})$ are isomorphic to the graphs constructed for q=p ^h in Lazebnik and Viglione (J. Graph Theory 41, 249–258, 2002) and to the graphs constructed for q prime in Du et al. (Eur. J. Comb. 24, 897–902, 2003). These graphs were known to be semisymmetric but their full automorphism group was up to now unknown. For q≥n+3 or q=p=n+2, n≥2, we obtain their full automorphism group from our construction by showing that, for an arc $\mathcal{K}$ , every automorphism of $\varGamma_{n,q}(\mathcal{K})$ is induced by a collineation of the ambient space $\operatorname{PG}(n+1,q)$ . We also give some other examples of semisymmetric graphs $\varGamma _{n,q}(\mathcal{K})$ for which not every automorphism is induced by a collineation of their ambient space.     

Analytic Toeplitz algebras and the Hilbert transform associated with a subdiagonal algebra

Let M be aσ-finite von Neumann algebra and let AM be a maximal subdiagonal algebra with respect to a faithful normal conditional expectationΦ.Based on the Haagerup’s noncommutative Lpspace Lp(M)associated with M,we consider Toeplitz operators and the Hilbert transform associated with A.We prove that the commutant of left analytic Toeplitz algebra on noncommutative Hardy space H2(M)is just the right analytic Toeplitz algebra.Furthermore,the Hilbert transform on noncommutative Lp(M)is shown to be bounded for 1p∞.As an application,we consider a noncommutative analog of the space BMO and identify the dual space of noncommutative H1(M)as a concrete space of operators.     

On the Relaxed Colouring Game and the Unilateral Colouring Game

In the paper we introduce the new game—the unilateral \({\mathcal{P}}\) -colouring game which can be used as a tool to study the r-colouring game and the (r, d)-relaxed colouring game. Let be given a graph G, an additive hereditary property \({\mathcal {P}}\) and a set C of r colours. In the unilateral \({\mathcal {P}}\) -colouring game similarly as in the r-colouring game, two players, Alice and Bob, colour the uncoloured vertices of the graph G, but in the unilateral \({\mathcal {P}}\) -colouring game Bob is more powerful than Alice. Alice starts the game, the players play alternately, but Bob can miss his move. Bob can colour the vertex with an arbitrary colour from C, while Alice must colour the vertex with a colour from C in such a way that she cannot create a monochromatic minimal forbidden subgraph for the property \({\mathcal {P}}\) . If after |V(G)| moves the graph G is coloured, then Alice wins the game, otherwise Bob wins. The \({\mathcal {P}}\) -unilateral game chromatic number, denoted by \({\chi_{ug}^\mathcal {P}(G)}\) , is the least number r for which Alice has a winning strategy for the unilateral \({\mathcal {P}}\) -colouring game with r colours on G. We prove that the \({\mathcal {P}}\) -unilateral game chromatic number is monotone and is the upper bound for the game chromatic number and the relaxed game chromatic number. We give the winning strategy for Alice to play the unilateral \({\mathcal {P}}\) -colouring game. Moreover, for k ≥  2 we define a class of graphs \({\mathcal {H}_k =\{G|{\rm every \;block \;of\;}G \; {\rm has \;at \;most}\; k \;{\rm vertices}\}}\) . The class \({\mathcal {H}_k }\) contains, e.g., forests, Husimi trees, line graphs of forests, cactus graphs. Let \({\mathcal {S}_d}\) be the class of graphs with maximum degree at most d. We find the upper bound for the \({\mathcal {S}_2}\) -unilateral game chromatic number for graphs from \({\mathcal {H}_3}\) and we study the \({\mathcal {S}_d}\) -unilateral game chromatic number for graphs from \({\mathcal {H}_4}\) for \({d \in \{2,3\}}\) . As the conclusion from these results we obtain the result for the d-relaxed game chromatic number: if \({G \in \mathcal {H}_k}\) , then \({\chi_g^{(d)}(G) \leq k + 2-d}\) , for \({k \in \{3, 4\}}\) and \({d \in \{0, \ldots, k-1\}}\) . This generalizes a known result for trees.     

Characterization of Lie higher derivations on triangular algebras

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be unital rings, and $\mathcal{M}$ be an $\left( {\mathcal{A},\mathcal{B}} \right)$ -bimodule, which is faithful as a left $\mathcal{A}$ -module and also as a right $\mathcal{B}$ -module. Let $\mathcal{U} = Tri\left( {\mathcal{A},\mathcal{M},\mathcal{B}} \right)$ be the triangular algebra. In this paper, we give some different characterizations of Lie higher derivations on $\mathcal{U}$ .     

Generalized Complex Spherical Harmonics, Frame Functions, and Gleason Theorem

Consider a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space ${\mathcal{H}}$ , with ${dim(\mathcal{H}) \geq 3}$ , define ${\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}):= \{x\in \mathcal{H} \:|\: \|x\|=1\}}$ , and let ${\nu_\mathcal{H}}$ be the unique regular Borel positive measure invariant under the action of the unitary operators in ${\mathcal{H}}$ , with ${\nu_\mathcal{H}(\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}))=1}$ . We prove that if a complex frame function ${f : \mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H})\to \mathbb{C}}$ satisfies ${f \in \mathbb{L}^2(\mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}), \nu_\mathcal{H})}$ , then it verifies Gleason’s statement: there is a unique linear operator ${A: \mathcal{H} \to \mathcal{H}}$ such that ${f(u) = \langle u| A u\rangle}$ for every ${u \in \mathbb{S}(\mathcal{H}).\,A}$ is Hermitean when f is real. No boundedness requirement is thus assumed on f a priori.
