Markov subshifts and partial representation of $$\mathbb{F}_{\text n}$$

In this paper we fix a set * of positive elements of the free group (e. g. the set of finite words occurring in a Markov subshift) as well as n partial isometries on a Hilbert space H. Based on these we define a map S : which we prove to be a partial representation of on H under certain conditions studied by Matsumoto.*Supported by Capes.

Beckman-Quarles type theorems for mappings from $$ \mathbb{R}^n $$ to $$ \mathbb{C}^n $$

Summary. Let We say that preserves the distance d 0 if for each implies Let A _n denote the set of all positive numbers d such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also distance d. Let D _n denote the set of all positive numbers d with the property: if and then there exists a finite set S _xy with such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also the distance between x and y. Obviously, We prove: (1) (2) for n 2 D _n is a dense subset of (2) implies that each mapping f from to (n 2) preserving unit distance preserves all distances, if f is continuous with respect to the product topologies on and

Finite rank operators in Jacobson radical \mathcal{R}_{\mathcal{N} \otimes \mathcal{M}}

In this paper we investigate finite rank operators in the Jacobson radical of Alg( ), where are nests. Based on the concrete characterizations of rank one operators in Alg( ) and , we obtain that each finite rank operator in can be written as a finite sum of rank one operators in and the weak closure of equals Alg( ) if and only if at least one of is continuous.

Forbidden (0,1)-vectors in Hyperplanes of $$\mathbb{R}^{n}$$: The unrestricted case

In this paper, we continue our investigation on “Extremal problems under dimension constraints” introduced [1]. The general problem we deal with in this paper can be formulated as follows. Let be an affine plane of dimension k in . Given determine or estimate .Here we consider and solve the problem in the special case where is a hyperplane in and the “forbidden set” . The same problem is considered for the case, where is a hyperplane passing through the origin, which surprisingly turns out to be more difficult. For this case we have only partial results.AMS Classification: 05C35, 05B30, 52C99     

A note on the isotopy problem for $$ \mathbb{R}^2 $$ -planes

For a class of stable planes we define a notion of isotopy equivalence with respect to that class and prove that any two planes of a certain class of -planes comprising all affine -planes are isotopy equivalent. Furthermore we obtain that all affine -planes are isotopy equivalent in the class of affine -planes. Finally we give an example which shows that this approach cannot be easily generalized to 2-dimensional projective planes, and we outline a different way for a possible generalization.Received: 27 April 2001     

A Change-of-Variable Formula with Local Time on Curves

Let be a continuous semimartingale and let be a continuous function of bounded variation. Setting and suppose that a continuous function is given such that F is C^1,2 on and F is on . Then the following change-of-variable formula holds: where is the local time of X at the curve b given by and refers to the integration with respect to . A version of the same formula derived for an Itô diffusion X under weaker conditions on F has found applications in free-boundary problems of optimal stopping.     

On the Number of Trace-One Elements in Polynomial Bases for \mathbb{F}_{2^n}

This paper investigates the number of trace-one elements in a polynomial basis for . A polynomial basis with a small number of trace-one elements is desirable because it results in an efficient and low cost implementation of the trace function. We focus on the case where the reduction polynomial is a trinomial or a pentanomial, in which case field multiplication can also be efficiently implemented. Communicated by: P. Wild     

Multiplicity one theorem for ({\rm GL}_{n+1}({\mathbb{R}}), {\rm GL} _ {n} ({ \mathbb{R}}))

Let F be either or . Consider the standard embedding and the action of GL_n(F) on GL_n+1(F) by conjugation. We show that any GL_n(F)-invariant distribution on GL_n+1(F) is invariant with respect to transposition. We prove that this implies that for any irreducible admissible smooth Fréchet representations π of GL_n+1(F) and of GL_n(F),

On the Structure and Symmetry Properties of Almost $$\cal{S}$$-manifolds

We prove that any simply connected -manifold of CR-codimension s 2 is noncompact by showing that the complete, simply connected -manifolds are all the CR products N × ^{s-1} with N Sasakian, endowed with a suitable product metric. N is a Sasakian -symmetric space if and only if M is CR-symmetric. The locally CR-symmetric -manifolds are characterized by

On the structure of level sets of uniform and Lipschitz quotient mappings from $$ \mathbb{R}^n $$ to $$ \mathbb{R} $$

We study two questions posed by Johnson, Lindenstrauss, Preiss, and Schechtman, concerning the structure of level sets of uniform and Lipschitz quotient mappings from . We show that if , is a uniform quotient mapping then for every has a bounded number of components, each component of separates and the upper bound of the number of components depends only on and the moduli of co-uniform and uniform continuity of .Next we prove that all level sets of any co-Lipschitz uniformly continuous mapping from to are locally connected, and we show that for every pair of a constant and a function with , there exists a natural number , so that for every co-Lipschitz uniformly continuous map with a co-Lipschitz constant and a modulus of uniform continuity , there exists a natural number and a finite set with card so that for all has exactly components, has exactly components and each component of is homeomorphic with the real line and separates the plane into exactly 2 components. The number and form of components of for are also described - they have a finite tree structure.

We present a generalized version of the Hardy-Sobolev inequality, in which the homogeneous potential is replaced by any potential V belonging to the Lorentz space . We show that the best constant in these inequalities is achieved provided that where . We also analyze the limit case .
