The cardinals below

The results of this paper concern the effective cardinal structure of the subsets of [ω₁]^<ω₁, the set of all countable subsets of ω₁. The main results include dichotomy theorems and theorems which show that the effective cardinal structure is complicated.     

The equation on weakly pseudo-convex CR manifolds of dimension 3

Let M be a smooth, compact, orientable, weakly pseudoconvex manifold of dimension 3, embedded in (N2), of codimension one or more, and endowed with the induced CR structure. Assuming that the tangential Cauchy-Riemann operator has closed range in L²(M) in order to rule out the Rossi example, we push regularity up to show has closed range in H^s(M) for all s>0. We then use the Szegö projection to show there is a smooth solution for the problem given smooth data. The results are obtained via microlocalization by piecing together estimates for functions and (0,1) forms that hold on different microlocal regions.     

Schurian vector space categories, hereditary algebras and Roiter's norm

We associate a positive real number to any vector space K-category over a field K. Generalizing a result of Nazarova and Roiter, we show that a schurian vector space K-category is representation-finite if and only if is finite and . Such vector space categories are quasilinear, i.e. its indecomposables are simple modules over their endomorphism ring. Recently, Nazarova and Roiter introduced the concept of -faithful poset in order to clarify the structure of critical posets. Their conjecture on the precise form of -faithful posets was established by Zeldich. We generalize these results and characterize -faithful quasilinear vector space K-categories in terms of a class of hereditary algebras H_ρ(D) parametrized by a skew-field D and a rational number ρ1.     

Quantized symplectic oscillator algebras of rank one

A quantized symplectic oscillator algebra of rank 1 is a PBW deformation of the smash product of the quantum plane with . We study its representation theory, and in particular, its category .     

Nonlinear structure of some classical quasi-Banach spaces and -spaces

We investigate the Lipschitz structure of ℓ_p and L_p for 0<p<1 as quasi-Banach spaces and as metric spaces (with the metric induced by the p-norm) and show that they are not Lipschitz isomorphic. We prove that the -space L₀ is not uniformly homeomorphic to any other L_p space, that the L_p spaces for 0<p<1 embed isometrically into one another, and reduce the problem of the uniform equivalence amongst L_p spaces to their Lipschitz equivalence as metric spaces.     

Approximation theorems for localized szsz–Mirakjan operators

In the present paper, we investigate the convergence and the approximation order of the localized Szsz–Mirakjan operators, and obtain some new results to improve the results due to Omey [Note on operators of Szsz–Mirakjan type, J. Approx. Theory 47 (1986) 246–254].     

Finding induced trees

Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a finite connected undirected graph and WV(G) a subset of vertices. We are searching for a subset XV(G) such that WX and the subgraph induced on X is a tree. -completeness results and polynomial time algorithms are given assuming that the cardinality of W is fixed or not. Besides we give complexity results when X has to induce a path or when G is a weighted graph. We also consider problems where the cardinality of X has to be minimized.     

Projective functors for algebraic groups

We investigate the regular subquotient category introduced by Soergel in [W. Soergel, On the relation between intersection cohomology and representation theory in positive characteristic, J. Pure Appl. Algebra 152 (1–3) (2000) 311–335]. A detailed study of projective functors enables one to relate those categories for semi-simple algebraic group G and its subgroup schemata G_rT. As an application we derive some information about the characters of tilting modules for G.     

Pseudoprime factorizations of integer matrices

We give a method of factoring integer matrices in into components such that the factorization is not unique unless certain information is known. In Section 2, we introduce this method of factorization and provide theorems which establish its well-definedness. In Section 3, we construct a matrix in as a product of specific types of matrices and establish an algorithm for factoring the result uniquely given an amount of information.     

Spectral theory for algebraic combinations of Toeplitz and composition operators

We determine the essential spectra of algebraic combinations of Toeplitz operators with continuous symbol and composition operators induced by a class of linear-fractional non-automorphisms of the unit disk. The operators in question act on the Hardy space H² on the unit disk. Our method is to realize the C^*-algebra that they generate as an extension of the compact operators by a concrete C^*-algebra whose invertible elements are easily characterized.     

Maximum fractional factors in graphs

We prove that fractional k-factors can be transformed among themselves by using a new adjusting operation repeatedly. We introduce, analogous to Berge’s augmenting path method in matching theory, the technique of increasing walk and derive a characterization of maximum fractional k-factors in graphs. As applications of this characterization, several results about connected fractional 1-factors are obtained.     

Coincidence and common fixed points for hybrid strict contractions without the weakly commuting condition

In this work, we establish new coincidence and common fixed point theorems for hybrid strict contraction maps by dropping the assumption “f is T-weakly commuting” for a hybrid pair (f,T) of multivalued maps in Theorem 3.10 of T. Kamran (2004) [8]. As an application, an invariant approximation result is derived.     

The behavior of best -approximations as . A counterexample of convergence

In the space of summable sequences we give an example of a one-dimensional affine subspace C such that the best L_p-approximations of 0 from C fail to converge as p↓1. We thus give an answer to this problem of convergence in infinite measure spaces.     

A non-splitting theorem in the enumeration degrees

We complete a study of the splitting/non-splitting properties of the enumeration degrees below by proving an analog of Harrington’s non-splitting theorem for the enumeration degrees. We show how non-splitting techniques known from the study of the c.e. Turing degrees can be adapted to the enumeration degrees.
