Regular<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-simplices in ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript> with vertices in ℤ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

In this paper theI andII regularn-simplices are introduced. We prove that the sufficient and necessary conditions for existence of anI regularn-simplex in ℝ ⁿ are that ifn is even thenn = 4m(m + 1), and ifn is odd thenn = 4m + 1 with thatn + 1 can be expressed as a sum of two integral squares orn = 4m - 1, and that the sufficient and necessary condition for existence of aII regularn-simplex in ℝ ⁿ isn = 2m ² - 1 orn = 4m(m + 1)(m ∈ ℕ). The connection between regularn-simplex in ℝ ⁿ and combinational design is given.     

Delone Sets in ℝ<Superscript>3</Superscript> with 2<Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis>-Regularity Conditions

A regular system is the orbit of a point with respect to a crystallographic group. The central problem of the local theory of regular systems is to determine the value of the regularity radius, which is the least number such that every Delone set of type (r,R) with identical neighborhoods/clusters of this radius is regular. In this paper, conditions are described under which the regularity of a Delone set in three-dimensional Euclidean space follows from the pairwise congruence of small clusters of radius 2R. Combined with the analysis of one particular case, this result also implies the proof of the “10R-theorem,” which states that if the clusters of radius 10R in a Delone set are congruent, then this set is regular.     

Minimal helix surfaces in <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>×ℝ

An immersed surface M in N ⁿ ×ℝ is a helix if its tangent planes make constant angle with ∂ _t . We prove that a minimal helix surface M, of arbitrary codimension is flat. If the codimension is one, it is totally geodesic. If the sectional curvature of N is positive, a minimal helix surfaces in N ⁿ ×ℝ is not necessarily totally geodesic. When the sectional curvature of N is nonpositive, then M is totally geodesic. In particular, minimal helix surfaces in Euclidean n-space are planes. We also investigate the case when M has parallel mean curvature vector: A complete helix surface with parallel mean curvature vector in Euclidean n-space is a plane or a cylinder of revolution. Finally, we use Eikonal f functions to construct locally any helix surface. In particular every minimal one can be constructed taking f with zero Hessian.     

A <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>∞</Superscript>-Regularity Theorem for Nondegenerate CR Mappings

We prove the following regularity result: If , are smooth generic submanifolds and M is minimal, then every C^k-CR-map from M into M which is k-nondegenerate is smooth. As an application, every CR diffeomorphism of k-nondegenerate minimal submanifolds in of class C^k is smooth.     

Free involutions on <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> × <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

Topological free involutions on S ¹ × S ⁿ are classified up to conjugation. We prove that this is the same as classifying quotient manifolds up to homeomorphism. There are exactly four possible homotopy types of such quotients, and surgery theory is used to classify all manifolds within each homotopy type.     

Difference sets with <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis> = 5<Emphasis Type="Italic"> p</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">r</Emphasis></Superscript>

Let D be a (v, k, λ)-difference set in an abelian group G, and (v, 31) = 1. If n = 5p ^r with p a prime not dividing v and r a positive integer, then p is a multiplier of D. In the case 31|v, we get restrictions on the parameters of such difference sets D for which p may not be a multiplier.      

The index of semielliptic operators in ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

The paper investigates the index of some linear, differential, semielliptic operators with variable coefficients of a special form in ? ⁿ . In particular, additional conditions on the symbol are found that render the index finite. The operators are considered in the weighted Sobolev spaces.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>∞</Superscript> regularity of solutions of the Levi equation in<Emphasis Type="Italic">R</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">2n+1</Emphasis></Superscript>

We study the regularity of the solutions of the Levi equation in ?²ⁿ⁺¹. It is a second order quasilinear equation whose characteristic matrix is positive semidefinite and has vanishing determinant at every point and for every functionu∈C ². We show that the operator associated to the equation can be represented as a sum of squares of non linear vector fields. Then, by using a freezing method, we prove theC ^∞ regularity of the solutions.

On 2 – (<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>, 2<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>, 2<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>–1) designs with three intersection numbers

The simple incidence structure , formed by the points and the unordered pairs of distinct parallel lines of a finite affine plane of order n > 4, is a 2 – (n ²,2n,2n–1) design with intersection numbers 0,4,n. In this paper, we show that the converse is true, when n ≥ 5 is an odd integer. Supported by M.I.U.R., Università di Palermo.

On Solvability of Regular Hypoelliptic Equations in ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

In this paper the unique solvability of regular hypoelliptic equations in multianisotropic weighted functional spaces is proved by means of special integral representation of functions through a regular operator. The existence of the solutions is proved by constructing approximate solutions using multianisotropic integral operators.     

Cycles in <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>-orbits in <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">ℂ</Emphasis></Superscript>-flag manifolds

There is a natural duality between orbits of a real form G of a complex semisimple group G on a homogeneous rational manifold Z=G /P and those of the complexification K of any of its maximal compact subgroups K: (,) is a dual pair if is a K-orbit. The cycle space C() is defined to be the connected component containing the identity of the interior of {g:g() is non-empty and compact}. Using methods which were recently developed for the case of open G-orbits, geometric properties of cycles are proved, and it is shown that C() is contained in a domain defined by incidence geometry. In the non-Hermitian case this is a key ingredient for proving that C() is a certain explicitly computable universal domain.Research of the first author partially supported by Schwerpunkt Global methods in complex geometry and SFB-237 of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.The second author was supported by a stipend of the Deutsche Akademische Austauschdienst.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>1,<Emphasis Type="Italic">α</Emphasis></Superscript> Theory for the Prescribed Mean Curvature Equation with Dirichlet Data

In this work we study solutions of the prescribed mean curvature equation over a general domain that do not necessarily attain the given boundary data. With such a solution we can naturally associate a current with support in the closed cylinder above the domain and with boundary given by the prescribed boundary data and which inherits a natural minimizing property. Our main result is that its support is a C ^1,α manifold-with-boundary, with boundary equal to the prescribed boundary data, provided that both the initial domain and the prescribed boundary data are of class C ^1,α .     

Derivatives for smooth representations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">GL</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>, ℝ) and <Emphasis Type="Italic">GL</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>, ℂ)

The notion of derivatives for smooth representations of GL(n, ? _p ) was defined in [BZ77]. In the archimedean case, an analog of the highest derivative was defined for irreducible unitary representations in [Sah89] and called the “adduced” representation. In this paper we define derivatives of all orders for smooth admissible Fréchet representations of moderate growth. The real case is more problematic than the p-adic case; for example, arbitrary derivatives need not be admissible. However, the highest derivative continues being admissible, and for irreducible unitarizable representations coincides with the space of smooth vectors of the adduced representation.In the companion paper [AGS] we prove exactness of the highest derivative functor, and compute highest derivatives of all monomial representations.We apply those results to finish the computation of adduced representations for all irreducible unitary representations and to prove uniqueness of degenerate Whittaker models for unitary representations, thus completing the results of [Sah89, Sah90, SaSt90, GS13a].     

Asymptotic purity for very general hypersurfaces of ℙ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript> × ℙ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript> of bidegree (<Emphasis Type="Italic">k,k</Emphasis>)

For a complex irreducible projective variety, the volume function and the higher asymptotic cohomological functions have proven to be useful in understanding the positivity of divisors as well as other geometric properties of the variety. In this paper, we study the vanishing properties of these functions on hypersurfaces of ℙ ⁿ × ℙ ⁿ . In particular, we show that very general hypersurfaces of bidegree (k, k) obey a very strong vanishing property, which we define as asymptotic purity: at most one asymptotic cohomological function is nonzero for each divisor. This provides evidence for the truth of a conjecture of Bogomolov and also suggests some general conditions for asymptotic purity.     

Kinetic Spanners in ℝ<Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis></Superscript>

We present a new (1+ε)-spanner for sets of n points in ℝ ^d . Our spanner has size O(n/ε ^d−1) and maximum degree O(log  ^d n). The main advantage of our spanner is that it can be maintained efficiently as the points move: Assuming that the trajectories of the points can be described by bounded-degree polynomials, the number of topological changes to the spanner is O(n ²/ε ^d−1), and using a supporting data structure of size O(nlog  ^d n), we can handle events in time O(log  ^d+1 n). Moreover, the spanner can be updated in time O(log n) if the flight plan of a point changes. This is the first kinetic spanner for points in ℝ ^d whose performance does not depend on the spread of the point set.

<Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">μ</Emphasis>) for vector-valued measure <Emphasis Type="Italic">μ</Emphasis>

Let μ be a measure from a σ-algebra of subsets of a set T into a sequentially complete Hausdorff topological vector space X. Assume that μ is convexly bounded, i.e., the convex hull of its range is bounded in X, and denote by L ¹(μ) the space of scalar valued functions on T which are integrable with respect to the vector measure μ. We study the inheritance of some properties from X to L ¹(μ). We show that the bounded multiplier property passes from X to L ¹(μ). Answering a 1972 problem of Erik Thomas, we show that for a rather large class of F-spaces X the non-containment of c ₀ passes from X to L ¹(μ).

The crossing numbers of Cartesian products of paths, cycles or stars with all graphs of order at most four are known. The crossing numbers of G□C _n for some graphs G on five and six vertices and the cycle C _n are also given. In this paper, we extend these results by determining the crossing number of the Cartesian product G □ C _n , where G is a specific graph on six vertices.
