Integral-type operators from a mixed norm space to a bloch-type space on the unit ball

Let $ \mathbb{B} $ \mathbb{B} be the unit ball in ℂ ⁿ and let H($ \mathbb{B} $ \mathbb{B} ) be the space of all holomorphic functions on $ \mathbb{B} $ \mathbb{B} . We introduce the following integral-type operator on H($ \mathbb{B} $ \mathbb{B} ):

Wavelet approximation and Fourier widths of classes of periodic functions of several variables. I

We obtain characterizations (and prove the corresponding equivalence of norms) of function spaces B _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) and L _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) of Nikol’skii-Besov and Lizorkin-Triebel types, respectively, in terms of representations of functions in these spaces by Fourier series with respect to a multiple system $ \mathcal{W}_m^\mathbb{I} $ \mathcal{W}_m^\mathbb{I} of Meyer wavelets and in terms of sequences of the Fourier coefficients with respect to this system. We establish order-sharp estimates for the approximation of functions in B _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ) and L _pq ^sm ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) by special partial sums of these series in the metric of L _r ($ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^k ) for a number of relations between the parameters s, p, q, r, and m (s = (s ₁, ..., s _n ) ∈ ℝ₊ ⁿ , 1 ≤ p, q, r ≤ ∞, m = (m ₁, ..., m _n ) ∈ ℕ ⁿ , k = m ₁ +... + m _n , and $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} = ℝ or $ \mathbb{T} $ \mathbb{T} ). In the periodic case, we study the Fourier widths of these function classes.     

On a semilattice of numberings

We study some properties of a $ \mathfrak{c} $ \mathfrak{c} -universal semilattice $ \mathfrak{A} $ \mathfrak{A} with the cardinality of the continuum, i.e., of an upper semilattice of m-degrees. In particular, it is shown that the quotient semilattice of such a semilattice modulo any countable ideal will be also $ \mathfrak{c} $ \mathfrak{c} -universal. In addition, there exists an isomorphism $ \mathfrak{A} $ \mathfrak{A} such that $ {\mathfrak{A} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {\mathfrak{A} {\iota \left( \mathfrak{A} \right)}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\iota \left( \mathfrak{A} \right)}} $ {\mathfrak{A} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {\mathfrak{A} {\iota \left( \mathfrak{A} \right)}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\iota \left( \mathfrak{A} \right)}} will be also $ \mathfrak{c} $ \mathfrak{c} -universal. Furthermore, a property of the group of its automorphisms is obtained. To study properties of this semilattice, the technique and methods of admissible sets are used. More exactly, it is shown that the semilattice of mΣ-degrees $ L_{m\Sigma }^{\mathbb{H}\mathbb{F}\left( S \right)} $ L_{m\Sigma }^{\mathbb{H}\mathbb{F}\left( S \right)} on the hereditarily finite superstructure $ \mathbb{H}\mathbb{F} $ \mathbb{H}\mathbb{F} (S) over a countable set S will be a $ \mathfrak{c} $ \mathfrak{c} -universal semilattice with the cardinality of the continuum.     

Local limit theorem for the first crossing time of a fixed level by a random walk

Let X,X(1),X(2),... be independent identically distributed random variables with mean zero and a finite variance. Put S(n) = X(1) + ... + X(n), n = 1, 2,..., and define the Markov stopping time η _y = inf {n ≥ 1: S(n) ≥ y} of the first crossing a level y ≥ 0 by the random walk S(n), n = 1, 2,.... In the case $ \mathbb{E} $ \mathbb{E} |X|³ < ∞, the following relation was obtained in [8]: $ \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _0 = n} \right) = \frac{1} {{n\sqrt n }}\left( {R + \nu _n + o\left( 1 \right)} \right) $ \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _0 = n} \right) = \frac{1} {{n\sqrt n }}\left( {R + \nu _n + o\left( 1 \right)} \right) as n → ∞, where the constant R and the bounded sequence ν _n were calculated in an explicit form. Moreover, there were obtained necessary and sufficient conditions for the limit existence $ H\left( y \right): = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } n^{{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _y = n} \right) $ H\left( y \right): = \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } n^{{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _y = n} \right) for every fixed y ≥ 0, and there was found a representation for H(y). The present paper was motivated by the following reason. In [8], the authors unfortunately did not cite papers [1, 5] where the above-mentioned relations were obtained under weaker restrictions. Namely, it was proved in [5] the existence of the limit $ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } n^{{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _y = n} \right) $ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } n^{{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _y = n} \right) for every fixed y ≥ 0 under the condition $ \mathbb{E} $ \mathbb{E} X ² < ∞ only; In [1], an explicit form of the limit $ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } n^{{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _0 = n} \right) $ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } n^{{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} \mathbb{P}\left( {\eta _0 = n} \right) was found under the same condition $ \mathbb{E} $ \mathbb{E} X ² < ∞ in the case when the summand X has an arithmetic distribution. In the present paper, we prove that the main assertion in [5] fails and we correct the original proof. It worth noting that this corrected version was formulated in [8] as a conjecture.     

Spaces with fibered approximation property in dimension <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>

A metric space M is said to have the fibered approximation property in dimension n (briefly, M ∈ FAP(n)) if for any ɛ > 0, m ≥ 0 and any map g: $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^m × $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ⁿ → M there exists a map g′: $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^m × $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ⁿ → M such that g′ is ɛ-homotopic to g and dim g′ ({z} × $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ⁿ ) ≤ n for all z ∈ $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} ^m . The class of spaces having the FAP(n)-property is investigated in this paper. The main theorems are applied to obtain generalizations of some results due to Uspenskij [11] and Tuncali-Valov [10].     

Linear maps that strongly preserve regular matrices over the Boolean algebra

The set of all m × n Boolean matrices is denoted by $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _m,n . We call a matrix A ∈ $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _m,n regular if there is a matrix G ∈ $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _n,m such that AGA = A. In this paper, we study the problem of characterizing linear operators on $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _m,n that strongly preserve regular matrices. Consequently, we obtain that if min{m, n} ⩽ 2, then all operators on $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _m,n strongly preserve regular matrices, and if min{m, n} ⩾ 3, then an operator T on $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _m,n strongly preserves regular matrices if and only if there are invertible matrices U and V such that T(X) = UXV for all X ε $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _m,n , or m = n and T(X) = UX ^T V for all X ∈ $ \mathbb{M} $ \mathbb{M} _n .     

Completely nonmeasurable unions

Assume that no cardinal κ < 2 ^ω is quasi-measurable (κ is quasi-measurable if there exists a κ-additive ideal $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} of X contains uncountably many pairwise disjoint subfamilies $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} -Bernstein unions ∪ $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} -Bernstein if A and X \ A meet each Borel $ \mathbb{I} $ \mathbb{I} -positive subset B ⊆ X). This result is a generalization of the Four Poles Theorem (see [1]) and results from [2] and [4].     

Trace class Toeplitz operators with unbounded symbols on weighted Bergman spaces

In this note we construct a function φ in L2（Bn,dμ） which is unbounded on any neighborhood of each boundary point of Bn such that Tφ is a trace class operator on weighted Bergman space Lα2（Bn,dμ） for several complex variables.     

The Hasse-Witt invariant in some towers of function fields over finite fields

In this article we investigate the p-rank of function fields in several good towers. To do this we first recall and establish some properties of the behaviour of the p-rank under extensions. Then we compute the p-ranks of function fields in several optimal towers over a quadratic field $ \mathbb{F}_{q^2 } $ \mathbb{F}_{q^2 } , as well as for a specific good tower over a cubic field $ \mathbb{F}_{q^3 } $ \mathbb{F}_{q^3 } , which was introduced by Bassa, Garcia and Stichtenoth.     

Phase portraits for quadratic homogeneous polynomial vector fields on $$ \mathbb{S}^2 $$

Let X be a homogeneous polynomial vector field of degree 2 on $ \mathbb{S}^2 $ \mathbb{S}^2 . We show that if X has at least a non-hyperbolic singularity, then it has no limit cycles. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for determining if a singularity of X on $ \mathbb{S}^2 $ \mathbb{S}^2 is a center and we characterize the global phase portrait of X modulo limit cycles. We also study the Hopf bifurcation of X and we reduce the 16 ^th Hilbert’s problem restricted to this class of polynomial vector fields to the study of two particular families. Moreover, we present two criteria for studying the nonexistence of periodic orbits for homogeneous polynomial vector fields on $ \mathbb{S}^2 $ \mathbb{S}^2 of degree n.     

Σ-definability of uncountable models of <Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>-simple theories

We show that each c-simple theory with an additional discreteness condition has an uncountable model Σ-definable in ℍ$ \mathbb{H} $ \mathbb{H} ($ \mathbb{L} $ \mathbb{L} ), where $ \mathbb{L} $ \mathbb{L} is a dense linear order. From this we establish the same for all c-simple theories of finite signature that are submodel complete.     

Bases of exponents in weighted spaces <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">−π, π</Emphasis>)

The system of exponents $ \left\{ {e^{i\lambda _n t} } \right\}_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} $ \left\{ {e^{i\lambda _n t} } \right\}_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} is considered. A sufficient condition for a Riesz-property basis in the weighted space L ^p (−π, π) is obtained.     

A$\mathcal{T}$-algebras and extensions of A$\mathbb{T}$-algebras

Lin and Su classified A$ \mathcal{T} $ \mathcal{T} -algebras of real rank zero. This class includes all A$ \mathbb{T} $ \mathbb{T} -algebras of real rank zero as well as many C*-algebras which are not stably finite. An A$ \mathcal{T} $ \mathcal{T} -algebra often becomes an extension of an A$ \mathbb{T} $ \mathbb{T} -algebra by an AF-algebra. In this paper, we show that there is an essential extension of an A$ \mathbb{T} $ \mathbb{T} -algebra by an AF-algebra which is not an A$ \mathcal{T} $ \mathcal{T} -algebra. We describe a characterization of an extension E of an A$ \mathbb{T} $ \mathbb{T} -algebra by an AF-algebra if E is an A$ \mathcal{T} $ \mathcal{T} -algebra.     

A complex structure on the set of quasiconformally extendible non-overlapping mappings into a Riemann surface

Let Σ be a Riemann surface with n distinguished points p ₁,..., p _n . We prove that the set of n-tuples (φ₁,..., φ _n ) of univalent mappings φ _i from the unit disc $ \mathbb{D} $ \mathbb{D} into Σ mapping 0 to p _i , with non-overlapping images and quasiconformal extensions to a neighbourhood of $ \overline {\mathbb{D}} $ \overline {\mathbb{D}} , carries a natural complex Banach manifold structure. This complex structure is locally modeled on the n-fold product of a two complex-dimensional extension of the universal Teichmüller space. Our results are motivated by Teichmüller theory and two-dimensional conformal field theory.     

Imaginary powers of a Laguerre differential operator

Imaginary powers associated to the Laguerre differential operator $ L_\alpha = - \Delta + |x|^2 + \sum _{i = 1}^d \frac{1} {{x_i^2 }}(\alpha _i^2 - 1/4) $ L_\alpha = - \Delta + |x|^2 + \sum _{i = 1}^d \frac{1} {{x_i^2 }}(\alpha _i^2 - 1/4) are investigated. It is proved that for every multi-index α = (α₁,...α _d ) such that α _i ≧ −1/2, α _i ∉ (−1/2, 1/2), the imaginary powers $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } ,\gamma \in \mathbb{R} $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } ,\gamma \in \mathbb{R} , of a self-adjoint extension of L _α, are Calderón-Zygmund operators. Consequently, mapping properties of $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } $ \mathcal{L}_\alpha ^{ - i\gamma } follow by the general theory.     

On additive properties of product sets in an arbitrary finite field

It is proved that for any two subsets A and B of an arbitrary finite field $ \mathbb{F}_q $ \mathbb{F}_q such that |A||B| > q, the identity 10AB = $ \mathbb{F}_q $ \mathbb{F}_q holds. Under the assumption |A||B| ⩾2q, this improves to 8AB = $ \mathbb{F}_q $ \mathbb{F}_q .     

A construction of maximal linearly independent array

Let M be a subset of r-dimensional vector space Vτ （F2） over a finite field F2, consisting of n nonzero vectors, such that every t vectors of M are linearly independent over F2. Then M is called （n, t）-linearly independent array of length n over Vτ（F2）. The （n, t）-linearly independent array M that has the maximal number of elements is called the maximal （r, t）-linearly independent array, and the maximal number is denoted by M（r, t）. It is an interesting combinatorial structure, which has many applications in cryptography and coding theory. It can be used to construct orthogonal arrays, strong partial balanced designs. It can also be used to design good linear codes, In this paper, we construct a class of maximal （r, t）-linearly independent arrays of length r ＋ 2, and provide some enumerator theorems.     

On holomorphic solutions of some inhomogeneous linear differential equations in a banach space over a non-archimedean field

Let A be a closed linear operator on a Banach space $ \mathfrak{B} $ \mathfrak{B} over the field Ω of complex p-adic numbers having an inverse operator defined on the whole $ \mathfrak{B} $ \mathfrak{B} , and f be a locally holomorphic at 0 $ \mathfrak{B} $ \mathfrak{B} -valued vector function. The problem of existence and uniqueness of a locally holomorphic at 0 solution of the differential equation y ^(m) − Ay = f is considered in this paper. In particular, it is shown that this problem is solvable under the condition $ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } \sqrt[n]{{\left\| {A^{ - n} } \right\|}} $ \mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } \sqrt[n]{{\left\| {A^{ - n} } \right\|}} = 0. It is proved also that if the vector-function f is entire, then there exists a unique entire solution of this equation. Moreover, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the Cauchy problem for such an equation to be correctly posed in the class of locally holomorphic functions are presented.
