The Maximum Size Of Graphs With A Unique<Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>- Factor

For suitable positive integers n and k let m(n, k) denote the maximum number of edges in a graph of order n which has a unique k-factor. In 1964, Hetyei and in 1984, Hendry proved for even n and , respectively. Recently, Johann confirmed the following conjectures of Hendry: for and kn even and for n = 2kq, where q is a positive integer. In this paper we prove for and kn even, and we determine m(n, 3).     

Higher-Rank Conformal Fields in the <Emphasis Type="Italic">Sp</Emphasis>(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">M</Emphasis>)-Symmetric Generalized Space-Time

We study various Sp(2M)-invariant field equations corresponding to rank-r tensor products of the Fock (singleton) representation of Sp(2M). These equations describe localization on “branes” of different dimensions embedded in the generalized space-time with matrix (i.e., “central charge”) coordinates. We consider the case of a bilinear tensor product in detail and show that the conserved currents built from bilinears of rank-1 fields in satisfy the field equations for rank-2 fields in . We also show that rank-2 fields in are equivalent to rank-1 fields in . __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 145, No. 1, pp. 35–65, October, 2005.

Infinitely many solutions of dirichlet problem for <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-mean curvature operator

The existence of infinitely many solutions of the following Dirichlet problem for p-mean curvature operator: is considered, where Θ is a bounded domain in R ⁿ (n>p>1) with smooth boundary ∂Θ.

Dual <Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis>-matrix integrability

Using the R-operator on a Lie algebra satisfying the modified classical Yang-Baxter equation, we define two sets of functions that mutually commute with respect to the initial Lie-Poisson bracket on . We consider examples of the Lie algebras with the Kostant-Adler-Symes and triangular decompositions, their R-operators, and the corresponding two sets of mutually commuting functions in detail. We answer the question for which R-operators the constructed sets of functions also commute with respect to the R-bracket. We briefly discuss the Euler-Arnold-type integrable equations for which the constructed commutative functions constitute the algebra of first integrals. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 155, No. 1, pp. 147–160, April, 2008.

Soluble Groups and Varieties of <Emphasis Type="Italic">l</Emphasis>-Groups

A sufficient condition is given under which factors of a system of normal convex subgroups of a linearly ordered (l.o.) group are Abelian. Also, a sufficient condition is specified subject to which factors of a system of normal convex subgroups of an l.o. group are contained in a group variety . In particular, for every soluble l.o. group G of solubility index n, n ⩾ 2, factors of a system of normal convex subgroups are soluble l.o. groups of solubility index at most n − 1. It is proved that the variety of all lattice-ordered groups, approximable by linearly ordered groups, does not coincide with a variety generated by all soluble l.o. groups. It is shown that if is any o-approximable variety of l-groups, and if every identity in the group signature is not identically true in , then contains free l.o. groups.Supported by FP “Universities of Russia” grant UR. 04. 01. 001.__________Translated from Algebra i Logika, Vol. 44, No. 3, pp. 355–367, May–June, 2005.     

The Dual Spaces of Sets of Difference Sequences of Order <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis> and Matrix Transformations

Let p = （pk）k=0^∞ be a bounded sequence of positive reals, m C N and u be s sequence of nonzero terms. If x = （xk）k=0^∞ is any sequence of complex numbers we write Δ（m）x for the sequence of the m th order differences of x and Δu^（m）X = {x=（x）k=0^∞ uΔ（m）x ∈ X} for any set X of sequences. We determine the α-, β- and γ-duals of the sets Δμ^（m）X for X=co（p）,c（p）,l∞（p） and characterize some matrix transformations between these spaces Δ^（m）X.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>*</Superscript>-Algebras of Bergman Type Operators with Piecewise Continuous Coefficients

The C ^*-algebra generated by the n poly-Bergman and m antipoly-Bergman projections and by the operators of multiplication by piecewise continuous functions on the Lebesgue space L ²(Π) over the upper half-plane is studied. Making use of a local principle, limit operators techniques, and the Plamenevsky results on two-dimensional convolution operators with symbols admitting homogeneous discontinuities we reduce the study to simpler C ^*-algebras associated with points and pairs . Applying a symbol calculus for the abstract unital C ^*-algebras generated by N orthogonal projections sum of which equals the unit and by M = n + m one-dimensional orthogonal projections and using relations for the Gauss hypergeometric function, we study local algebras at points being the discontinuity points of coefficients. A symbol calculus for the C ^*-algebra is constructed and a Fredholm criterion for the operators is obtained.

Upper bounds for prime <Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>-tuples of size log <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis> and oscillations

We prove the estimate for the number E_k(N) of k-tuples (n + a₁,..., n + a_k) of primes not exceeding N, for k of size c₁ log N and N sufficiently large. A bound of this strength was previously known in the special case < only, (Vaughan, 1973). For general a_i this is an improvement upon the work of Hofmann and Wolke (1996). The number of prime tuples of this size has considerable oscillations, when varying the prime pattern. Received: 20 December 2002     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis>-th Power of Upper Bound Graphs

We consider k-th power of upper bound graphs. According to the characterization of upper bound graphs, we obtain a characterization of k-th power of upper bound graphs. That is, for a connected upper bound graph G, G^k is an upper bound graph if and only if for any pair of A^k -simplicial vertices s₁, s₂ such that , there exists a G^k -simplicial vertex s satisfying the conditions: and . Furthermore we also get some properties on squares of upper bound graphs.AMS Subject Classification: 05C62.     

Sharp Estimates for Deviations of Linear Approximation Methods for Periodic Functions by Linear Combinations of Moduli of Continuity of Different Order

Estimates for deviations are established for a large class of linear methods of approximation of periodic functions by linear combinations of moduli of continuity of different orders. These estimates are sharp in the sense of constants in the uniform and integral metrics. In particular, the following assertion concerning approximation by splines is proved: Suppose that is odd, . Then

Optimal Domains and Integral Representations of Convolution Operators in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>)

Given , a compact abelian group G and a function , we identify the maximal (i.e. optimal) domain of the convolution operator (as an operator from L^p(G) to itself). This is the largest Banach function space (with order continuous norm) into which L^p(G) is embedded and to which has a continuous extension, still with values in L^p(G). Of course, the optimal domain depends on p and g. Whereas is compact, this is not always so for the extension of to its optimal domain. Several characterizations of precisely when this is the case are presented.
