Carleson measure problems for parabolic Bergman spaces and homogeneous Sobolev spaces

Let be the space of solutions to the parabolic equation having finite norm. We characterize nonnegative Radon measures μ on having the property , 1≤p≤q<∞, whenever . Meanwhile, denoting by v(t,x) the solution of the above equation with Cauchy data v₀(x), we characterize nonnegative Radon measures μ on satisfying , β∈(0,n), p∈[1,n/β], q∈(0,∞). Moreover, we obtain the decay of v(t,x), an isocapacitary inequality and a trace inequality.     

A new transformation of Burger’s equation for an exact solution in a bounded region necessary for certain boundary conditions

In this work, the transient analytic solution is found for the initial-boundary-value Burgers equation in 0?x?L. The boundary conditions are a homogeneous Dirichlet condition at x=0 and a constant total flux at x=L. The technique used consists of applying the transformation that reduces Burgers equation to a linear diffusion-advection equation. Previous work on this equation in a bounded region has only applied the Cole-Hopf transformation , which transforms Burgers equation to the linear diffusion equation. The Cole-Hopf transformation can only solve Burgers equation with constant Dirichlet boundary conditions, or time-dependent Dirichlet boundary conditions of the form u(0,t)=F₁(t) and u(L,t)=F₂(t),0?x?L. In this work, it is shown that the Cole-Hopf transformation will not solve Burgers equation in a bounded region with the boundary conditions dealt with in this work.     

A remark on Ricceri's conjecture for a class of nonlinear eigenvalue problems

Consider the eigenvalue problem : −Δu=λf(x,u) in Ω, u=0 on ∂Ω, where Ω is a bounded smooth domain in RN. Denote by the set of all Carathéodory functions f:Ω×R→R such that for a.e. x∈Ω, f(x,⋅) is Lipschitzian with Lipschitz constant L, f(x,0)=0 and , and denote by (resp. ) the set of λ>0 such that has at least one nonzero classical (resp. weak) solution. Let λ₁ be the first eigenvalue for the Laplacian-Dirichlet problem. We prove that and . Our result is a positive answer to Ricceri's conjecture if use f(x,u) instead of f(u) in the conjecture.     

The third homology of the special linear group of a field

We prove that for any infinite field F, the map is an isomorphism for all n≥3. When n=2 the cokernel of this map is naturally isomorphic to , where is the nth Milnor K-group of F. We deduce that the natural homomorphism from to the indecomposable K₃ of F, , is surjective for any infinite field F.     

Well-posedness of the fourth-order perturbed Schrödinger type equation in non-isotropic Sobolev spaces

In this paper we study the Cauchy problem of the non-isotropically perturbed fourth-order nonlinear Schrödinger type equation: ((x₁,x₂,…,xn)∈Rn, t?0), where a is a real constant, 1?d<n is an integer, g(x,|u|)u is a nonlinear function which behaves like α|u|u for some constant α>0. By using Kato method, we prove that this perturbed fourth-order Schrödinger type equation is locally well-posed with initial data belonging to the non-isotropic Sobolev spaces provided that s₁,s₂ satisfy the conditions: s₁?0, s₂?0 for or for with some additional conditions. Furthermore, by using non-isotropic Sobolev inequality and energy method, we obtain some global well-posedness results for initial data belonging to non-isotropic Sobolev spaces .

A new existence result of homoclinic orbits is obtained for the second-order Hamiltonian systems , where F(t,x) is periodic with respect to t. This result generalizes some known results in the literature.     

Directed 3-cycle decompositions of complete directed graphs with quadratic leaves

Let G be a vertex-disjoint union of directed cycles in the complete directed graph D_t, let |E(G)| be the number of directed edges of G and suppose or if t=5, and if t=6. It is proved in this paper that for each positive integer t, there exist -decompositions for D_t−G if and only if .     

Explicit formulas for Laplace transforms of certain functionals of some time inhomogeneous diffusions

We consider a process given by the SDE , t∈[0,T), with initial condition , where T∈(0,∞], α∈R, (Bt)_t∈[0,T) is a standard Wiener process, b:[0,T)→R?{0} and σ:[0,T)→(0,∞) are continuously differentiable functions. Assuming , t∈[0,T), with some K∈R, we derive an explicit formula for the joint Laplace transform of and for all t∈[0,T) and for all α∈R. Our motivation is that the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of α can be expressed in terms of these random variables. As an application, we show that in case of α=K, K≠0,

     

Carleson embeddings for Sobolev spaces via heat equation

Let u(t,x) be the solution of the heat equation (∂_t-Δ_x)u(t,x)=0 on subject to u(0,x)=f(x) on Rⁿ. The main goal of this paper is to characterize such a nonnegative measure μ on that f(x)?u(t²,x) induces a bounded embedding from the Sobolev space , p∈[1,n) into the Lebesgue space , q∈(0,∞).

In this paper, we explore some generalization of the transitive fraternal augmentations for directed graphs and its applications. In particular, we show that the 2-coloring number col₂(G)≤O(∇₁(G)∇₀(G)²), where ∇_k(G) (k≥0) denotes the greatest reduced average density with depth k of a graph G; we give a constructive proof that ∇_k(G) bounds the distance (k+1)-coloring number col_k+1(G) with a function f(∇_k(G)). On the other hand, ∇_k(G)≤(col_2k+1(G))^2k+1. We also show that an inductive generalization of transitive fraternal augmentations can be used to study nonrepetitive colorings of graphs.     

Mixed Artin-Tate motives over number rings

This paper studies Artin-Tate motives over bases , for a number field F. As a subcategory of motives over S, the triangulated category of Artin-Tate motives is generated by motives , where ? is any finite map. After establishing the stability of these subcategories under pullback and pushforward along open and closed immersions, a motivic t-structure is constructed. Exactness properties of these functors familiar from perverse sheaves are shown to hold in this context. The cohomological dimension of mixed Artin-Tate motives () is two, and there is an equivalence .     

Some classes of non-analytic Markov semigroups

We deal with Markov semigroups T_t corresponding to second order elliptic operators Au=Δu+〈Du,F〉, where F is an unbounded locally Lipschitz vector field on . We obtain new conditions on F under which T_t is not analytic in . In particular, we prove that the one-dimensional operator Au=u″−x³u′, with domain , , is not sectorial in . Under suitable hypotheses on the growth of F, we introduce a class of non-analytic Markov semigroups in , where μ is an invariant measure for T_t.     

Smoothed integral equations

For a linear integral equation there is a resolvent equation and a variation of parameters formula . It is assumed that B is a perturbed convex function and that a(t) may be badly behaved in several ways. When the first two equations are treated separately by means of a Liapunov functional, restrictive conditions are required separately on a(t) and B(t,s). Here, we treat them as a single equation where S is an integral combination of a(t) and B(t,s). There are two distinct advantages. First, possibly bad behavior of a(t) is smoothed. Next, properties of S needed in the Liapunov functional can be obtained from an array of properties of a(t) and B(t,s) yielding considerable flexibility not seen in standard treatment. The results are used to treat nonlinear perturbation problems. Moreover, the function is shown to converge pointwise and in L²[0,∞) to x(t).     

Sequences of integers with missing quotients

Let S be any set of natural numbers, and A be a given set of rational numbers. We say that S is an A-quotient-free set if x,y∈S implies y/x∉A. Let and , where the supremum is taken over all A-quotient-free sets S, and are the upper and lower asymptotic densities of S respectively. Let ρ(A)=sup_Sδ(S), where the supremum is taken over all A-quotient-free sets S such that δ(S) exists. In this paper we study the properties of , and ρ(A).

This yields uniqueness of the viscosity solutions of such Hamilton-Jacobi equations.     

On a parabolic problem with nonlinear term in a half space and global behavior of solutions

We take up the existence and global behavior of positive continuous solutions of the following nonlinear parabolic equation in (n?2) with boundary conditions u=0 on and u(x,0)=u₀(x). The nonlinear term is required to satisfy some conditions related to a functional class , which we introduce in this paper and will be called parabolic Kato class in the half space. Our approach is based on potential theory.     

On Brown’s constant associated with irreducible polynomials over henselian valued fields

Let v be a henselian valuation of arbitrary rank of a field K and be the prolongation of v to the algebraic closure of K with value group . In 2008, Ron Brown gave a class P of monic irreducible polynomials over K such that to each g(x) belonging to P, there corresponds a smallest constant λ_g belonging to (referred to as Brown’s constant) with the property that whenever is more than λ_g with K(β) a tamely ramified extension of (K,v), then K(β) contains a root of g(x). In this paper, we determine explicitly this constant besides giving an important property of λ_g without assuming that K(β)/K is tamely ramified.     

Some new results on multivariate dispersive ordering of generalized order statistics

Let be generalized order statistics based on a continuous distribution function F with parameters k and (m₁,…,m_n−1). Chen and Hu (2007) [8] investigated the sufficient conditions on F and on the parameters k and m_i’s such that , where , and is the Shaked-Shanthikumar multivariate dispersive order. Since the order does not possess the closure property under marginalization, one may naturally wonder whether the corresponding multivariate margins of the above random vectors are also ordered in the order . This is answered affirmatively in this paper. Some comparison results for generalized order statistics from two samples are presented. Potential applications are also mentioned.
