It is proved that under the standard transformation of a Gentzen derivation into a natural derivation(), the length of (())2^2·length( ). There is constructed a sequence of Gentzen derivations of length _i, for which the length of (( _i))2^{1/3·length(i}), which shows that the upper bound obtained is not too weak.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

On monotone and convex approximation by algebraic polynomials

The following results are obtained: If >0, 2, [3, 4], andf is a nondecreasing (convex) function on [–1, 1] such thatE _n (f) n ^– for any n>, then E _n ⁽¹⁾ (f)Cn ^– (E _n ⁽²⁾ (f)Cn ^–) for n>, where C=C(), E_n(f) is the best uniform approximation of a continuous function by polynomials of degree (n–1), and E _n ⁽¹⁾ (f) (E _n ⁽²⁾ (f)) are the best monotone and convex approximations, respectively. For =2 ( [3, 4]), this result is not true.Published in Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 46, No. 9, pp. 1266–1270, September, 1994.     

Bounding the diameter of a distance regular graph by a function ofk d

Let be a distance regular graph with diameterd, and _d () the set of vertices at distanced from. is said to be thin if the induced subgraph on _d () is a union of cliques for every vertex. We show that the diameterd is bounded above by a function depending only onk _d, which is the cardinality of _d (), if is not thin. We also investigate thin distance regular graphs witha _d 0.     

The embedding of linearly ordered sets

It is shown that if a linearly ordered set B does not contain as subsets sets of order type and ^* then B can be embedded in 2 . We construct an example of a set satisfying the above conditions which cannot be embedded in any 2 if < . Simultaneously we show that for any ordinal, 2 ⁺¹ cannot be embedded in 2 and that there exists at least ₊₁ distinct dense order types of cardinality 2 .Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 11, No. 1, pp. 83–88, January, 1972.In conclusion, I wish to take the opportunity to thank Yu.

Bemerkung zu Einem Satz von Baer

Let be an involutorial antiautomorphism of the division ring K with char K 2 and E := {r K | rr = 1}. Refining a result of R. Baer we prove: (card E–1)² < card K =id. This is done by computing card E and the cardinal numbers of the sets consisting of the -symmetric respectively the -skew-symmetric elements.     

Solution of integral equations in fractional Sobolev spaces

We consider linear integral equations and Urysohn equations with constant integration limits. Sufficient conditions are given for the solutions of these equations to be in Sobolev spacesW ₂ (0,1), 0 2. Finite-difference schemes are constructed for approximate solution of the original equation by special averaging of the right-hand side kernel. The rate of convergence of the approximate solution to the averaged exact solution is shown to beO(h|ln h|(1/2,)⁺(3/2,)).Translated from Vychislitel'naya i Prikladnaya Matematika, No. 63, pp. 3–19, 1987.     

Nonclassical multidimensional singular integral operators on R + n+1

Banach algebras of certain bounded operators acting on the half-spaceL _p (R ₊ ⁿ⁺¹ ,x ₀ ) (1<p<, –1<<p–1) are defined which contain for example Wiener-Hopf operators, defined by multidimensional singular convolution integral operators, as well as certain singular integral operators with fixed singularities. Moreover the symbol may be a positive homogeneous function only piecewise continuous on the unit sphere. Actually these multidimensional singular integral operators may be not Calderón-Zygmund operators but are built up by those in lower dimensions. This paper is a continuation of a joint paper of the author together with R.V. Duduchava [10]. The purpose is to investigate invertibility or Fredholm properties of these operators, while the continuity is given by definition. This is done in [10] forp=2 and –1<<1, and in the present paper forL _p (R ₊ ⁿ⁺¹ ,x ₀ ) with 1<p< and –1<<p–1.     

A result from diophantine approximation which has applications in economics

We say that a real number allows poor approximations if we can find 0<=()<1 and a sequence of integers n₁2<... such that for all rationals p/q with qn. we have |–.p/q| > Kn _j ^–l– where K is a constant depending only on .In this note we prove that the set of numbers which allow poor approximations are precisely the very well-approximable numbers.The existence of numbers with poor approximations has been used by Cheng [1] to show the existence of a dense set of economies whose cone converges to the Walras equilibrium as slowly as 0(n^–1/2–) after n replications.     

On the Uniform Summability of Multiple Walsh-Fourier Series

In this paper we prove that if f C (0, 1 ^N ) and the function f is of bounded partial variation, then the N-dimensional Walsh-Fourier series of the function f is uniformly (C,–) summable (₁ +...+ _N < 1, _i > 0, i = 1,...,N) in the sense of Pringsheim. If ₁ +...+ _N = 1, _i > 0, i = 1,2,...,N, then there exists a continuous function f ₀ of bounded partial variation on [0, 1] ^N such that the Cesàro (C,–) means _m ^– (f₀,Õ) of the N-dimensional Walsh-Fourier series of f ₀ diverge over cubes.     

On algebras generated by convolutions and discontinuous functions

Banach algebras generated by Fourier and Mellin convolution operators with discontinuous presymbols and by discontinuous functions in L_p (IR⁺, x) spaces with weight are investigated. The Fredholm properties are characterized by a symbol calculus and an index formula for such operators is presented. These results were obtained by H. O. Cordes in [3] for the case p=2, =0 and presymbols, which are discontinuous only at infinity and generalized in [20] for 1相似文献   

A chord-stretching map of a convex loop is an isometry

Let ⁿ be n-dimensional Euclidean space, and let : [0, L] ⁿ and : [0, L] ⁿ be closed rectifiable arcs in ⁿ of the same total length L which are parametrized via their arc length. is said to be a chord-stretched version of if for each 0s tL, |(t)–(s)| |(t)–(s)|. is said to be convex if is simple and if ([0, L]) is the frontier of some plane convex set. Individual work by Professors G. Choquet and G. T. Sallee demonstrated that if were simple then there existed a convex chord-stretched version of . This result led Professor Yang Lu to conjecture that if were convex and were a chord-stretched version of then and would be congruent, i.e. any chord-stretching map of a convex arc is an isometry. Professor Yang Lu has proved this conjecture in the case where and are C ² curves. In this paper we prove the conjecture in general.     

Some Classes of L 1-Convergence of Fourier Series

In this paper equivalent classes of the classes M and S _pr , p > 1, > 0. r { 0,1,2, ... ,[]} defined by Shuyun [3] are obtained. Then, it is shown that the class S _pr , 1 > p 2, 0, r {0,1,2,...,[]} is a subclass of BVC _r , where S _pr is the equivalent class of the Shuyun's class S _pr , BV is the class of null sequences of bounded variation and C _r is the extension of the Garrett--Stanojevic class. As a corollary of this result, we have obtained the theorem, proved in [7].     

Lp-convergence for expansions in terms of the eigenfunctions of a Sturm — Liouville problem

For the operator L_v=–(x^2ay). x [0, 1], y(0)=y(1)=0 with 0 < 1/2, or ¦y¦ < , y(1)=0 with 1/2 <1, we investigate the effect which the singularity of the Sturm-Liouville operator derived from this self-adjoint expression has on L_p-convergence of expansions in terms of the eigenfunctions of this operator. We will prove that the orthonormalized system of eigenfunctions forms a basis in L_p [0, 1] for 2/(2–) < p < 2/.Translated from Matematicheskii Zametki, Vol. 3, No. 6, pp. 683–692, June, 1968.The author is grateful to V.

Constructing one-parameter transformations on white noise functions in terms of equicontinuous generators

Let be a barreled locally convex space. A continuous operator on is called anequicontinuous generator if { ⁿ /n!;n=0,1,2,...} is an equicontinuous family of operators. For each equicontinuous generator a one-parameter group of operators is constructed by means of power series. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the equicontinuous generators and the locally equicontinuous holomorphic one-parameter groups of operators. If two equicontinuous generators ₁, ₂ satisfy [₁,₂]=₂ for some thena₁+b₂ is also an equicontinuous generator for anya, b. These general results are applied to a study of operators on white noise functions. In particular, a linear combination of the number operator and the Gross Laplacian, which are natural infinite dimensional analogues of a finite dimensional Laplacian, is always an equicontinuous generator. This result contributes to the Cauchy problems in white noise (Gaussian) space.Work supported by Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung and Japan Society for Promotion of Sciences     

Die Nuklearität der Ultradistributionsräume und der Satz vom Kern II

Continuing the research of part I conditions equivalent to ()- or ()-nuclearity of spaces of ultradifferential functions and their duals as well as some applications are given. To get these results it is shown that tensor products of smooth sequence spaces, power series spaces, and spaces S(M_q) introduced in part I are isomorphic to suitable sequence spaces of the same class, which are stable provided the factors are stable power series spaces. Hence it is possible to establish isomorphisms between different functions spaces, to calculate the nuclearity types of tensor products by the nuclearity types of the factors, and to prove that the class of ()- or ()-nuclear spaces is closed under forming tensor products iff is multiplicatively stable.     

Über Mosers regularisiertes Variationsproblem für minimale Blätterungen desn-dimensionalen Torus

We consider regular and Cantor-like minimal foliations of the (n+1)-dimensional TorusT ⁿ⁺¹ whose leaves minimize a given variational integral. Each leaf of such a generalized foliation lies in the universal coveringR ⁿ⁺¹ within a finite distance to the affine leaves (z, x+) of fixed R ⁿ . We show that the conjugation-functionU (x,), mapping the affine leaves (x, x+) into the leaves(x,U (x,x+)) of the generalized foliation, is itself a minimal solution of an extended degenerate variational problem onT ⁿ +1. If R ⁿ /Q ⁿ the functionU is characterized in a unique way as (discontinuous) limit of the minimal solutions of the corresponding regularized problem.
