Bijectivity of -endomorphisms of ℬ(H) and the unilateral shift

LetH be a separable infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space. We prove that if : (H)(H) is a^*-preserving ring homomorphism whose range contains a rank-one operator and an operator with dense range, then is an isometric linear or conjugate-linear algebra automorphism of (H). In particular, if the unilateral shift is contained in the range of a^*-endomorphism of (H), then is bijective.Research partially supported by the Hungarian National Research Science Foundation, Operating Grant Number OTKA 1652 and K&H Bank Ltd., Universitas Foundation.     

Multiple wiener integrals and nonlinear functionals of a nuclear space valued Wiener process

In this work we develop techniques for the study of nonlinear functionals of a -valued Wiener processW _t, where is the dual of a countably Hilbert nuclear space. We construct stochastic integrals and multiple Wiener integrals of operator-valued processes with respect toW _t. The Wiener decomposition of the space of -valued nonlinear functionals ofW _t is established. We also obtain multiple stochastic integral expansions and representations of -valued nonlinear functionals ofW _t as operator-valued stochastic integrals of Itô type.This research was partially supported by CONACYT grants 22537 and PCEXCNA-040651, and Air Force Office of Scientific Research No. F49620 85 C 0144.Presently at CIMAT, A.P. 402 Guanajuato 36000, GTO, México.     

RC *-fields

It is stated that if a Boolean family W of valuation rings of a field F satisfies the block approximation property (BAP) and a global analog of the Hensel-Rychlick property (THR), in which case F, W is called an RC^*-field, then F is regularly closed with respect to the family W (The-orem 1). It is proved that every pair F, W, where W is a weakly Boolean family of valuation rings of a field F, is embedded in the RC^*-field F₀, W₀ in such a manner that R₀ R₀ F, R₀ W₀ is a continuous map, W₀ is homeomorphic over W to a given Boolean space, and R₀ is a superstructure of R₀ F for every R₀ W₀ (Theorem 2).Translated fromAlgebra i Logika, Vol. 33, No. 4, pp. 367–386, July-August, 1994.     

A constructive approach to the quantum (cosh ϕ)2 model. I. The method of the Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko equations

In a Hubert , with the aid of the postulated Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko quantum equations, one introduces the fields ₁(x) and ₂(x), which are the quantum analogues of the classical fields cosh (x) and sinh (x) in the sinh-Gordon model. It is shown that the fields _j(x) satisfy the Wightman axioms, including the invariance relative to reflections of space-time and mutual local commutativity. In addition, one proves the asymptotic completeness of the theory and one computes explicitly the scattering operator. In the developed approach, no cut-offs are used and, therefore, there are no renormalization effects.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Isomorphisms of Steinberg groups over commutative rings

LetA andR be commutative rings, andm andn be integers3. It is proved that, if :St _m (A)St _n (R) is an isomorphism, thenm=n. Whenn4, we have: (1) Every isomorphism :St _n(A)St _n(R) induces an isomorphism:E _n (A)E _n (R), and is uniquely determined by; (2) IfSt _n (A) St _n (R) thenK _2.n (A)K _2.n (R); (3) Every isomorphismE _n (A) E _n (R) can be lifted to an isomorphismSt _n(A)St _n(R); (4)St _n(A) St _n(R) if and only ifAR. For the casen=3, ifSt ₃(A) andSt ₃(R) are respectively central extensions ofE ₃(A) andE ₃ (R), then the above (1) and (2) hold.The Project supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China     

Some fractal sets determined by stable processes

Summary LetY _i be independent stable subordinators in (, ,P) with indices 0< _i <1 andR _i are the ranges ofY _i ,i=1, 2. We are able to find the exact Hausdorff measure and packing measure results for the product setsR ₁×R ₂, and whenever ₁ + ₂ 1/2, we deduce results for the vector sumR ₁R ₂={x+y:xR ₁,yR ₂}.

New lower semicontinuity results for polyconvex integrals

Summary We study integral functionals of the formF(u, )= f(u)dx, defined foru C¹(;R ^k), R ⁿ . The functionf is assumed to be polyconvex and to satisfy the inequalityf(A) c₀¦(A)¦ for a suitable constant c₀ > 0, where (A) is then-vector whose components are the determinants of all minors of thek×n matrixA. We prove thatF is lower semicontinuous onC ¹(;R ^k) with respect to the strong topology ofL ¹(;R ^k). Then we consider the relaxed functional , defined as the greatest lower semicontinuous functional onL ¹(;R ^k ) which is less than or equal toF on C¹(;R ^k). For everyu BV(;R ^k) we prove that (u,) f(u)dx+c₀¦D^su¦(), whereDu=u dx+D^su is the Lebesgue decomposition of the Radon measureDu. Moreover, under suitable growth conditions onf, we show that (u,)= f(u)dx for everyu W^1,p(;R ^k), withp min{n,k}. We prove also that the functional (u, ) can not be represented by an inte- gral for an arbitrary functionu BV_loc(R ⁿ;R ^k). In fact, two examples show that, in general, the set function (u, ) is not subadditive whenu BV_loc(R ⁿ;R ^k), even ifu W _loc ^1,p (R ⁿ;R ^k) for everyp < min{n,k}. Finally, we examine in detail the properties of the functionsu BV(;R ^k) such that (u, )= f(u)dx, particularly in the model casef(A)=¦(A)¦.

On the number of non conjugate subgroups

We shall prove that every group of cardinality ₁ has at least ₁ non conjugate subgroups, and we shall generalize this theorem to many more uncountable cardinalities. For example underGCH for every uncountable cardinal and every groupG of cardinality ,G has at least non conjugate subgroups.Presented by W. Taylor.I would like to thank Rami Grossberg for writing and rewriting this paper, and Wilfrid Hodges for removing many errors and suggesting improvements in presentation; many facts are proved only due to his explicit request.This research was supported by grant (No. 1110) from the United States-Israel Binational Science Foundation.     

Some inequalities about the covering radius of Reed-Muller codes

Let R(r, m) be the rth order Reed-Muller code of length 2 ^m , and let (r, m) be its covering radius. We prove that if 2 k m - r - 1, then (r + k, m + k) (r, m + 2(k - 1). We also prove that if m - r 4, 2 k m - r - 1, and R(r, m) has a coset with minimal weight (r, m) which does not contain any vector of weight (r, m) + 2, then (r + k, m + k) (r, m) + 2k(. These inequalities improve repeated use of the known result (r + 1, m + 1) (r, m).This work was supported by a grant from the Research Council of Wright State University.     

Asymptotic Density and the Asymptotics of Partition Functions

Let A be a set of positive integers with gcd (A) = 1, and let p _A (n) be the partition function of A. Let c ₀ = 2/3. If A has lower asymptotic density and upper asymptotic density , then lim inf log p _A (n)/c ₀ n and lim sup log p _A (n)/c ₀ n . In particular, if A has asymptotic density > 0, then log p _A (n) c₀n. Conversely, if > 0 and log p _A (n) c ₀ n, then the set A has asymptotic density .     

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.

Intrinsic ultracontractivity of Dirichlet Laplacians in non-smooth domains

We give a general criterion for the intrinsic ultracontractivity of Dirichlet Laplacians – _D on domainsD ofR ^d d 3, based on the Lieb's formula. It applies to various classes of domains (e.g. John, Hölder andL ^p-averaging domains) and gives new conditions for intrinsic ultracontractivity in terms of the Minkowski dimension of the boundary D. In particular, isotropic self-similar fractals and domains satisfying a c-covering condition are considered.     

On the radicals of structural matrix rings

The relationship between the radical of a ringR and a structural matrix ring overR has been determined for some radicals. We continue these investigations, amongst others, determining exactly which radicals have the property (M(,R))=M( _s ,(R))+M( _a ,⁺(R))for any structural matrix ringM(,R) and finding (M(,R)) for any hereditary subidempotent radical .

V. Stepanov's class S ¹ (R; W ₂ ² ()H()) when the right-hand side f(x, t) S(R; L₂()) is almost periodic with respect to t; 5) the linearization principle (Lyapunov's first method) is justified in the theory of the exponential stability of the solutions of an initial-boundary value problem in the space H() and conditions are given for the exponential stability of a stationary and periodic solution, with respect to t R, of the system (1).Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

The Whitehead Group of the Novikov Ring

The Bass–Heller–Swan–Farrell–Hsiang–Siebenmann decomposition of the Whitehead group K ₁(A[z,z^-1]) of a twisted Laurent polynomial extension A[z,z^-1] of a ring A is generalized to a decomposition of the Whitehead group K ₁(A((z))) of a twisted Novikov ring of power series A((z))=A[[z]][z^-1]. The decomposition involves a summand W₁(A, ) which is an Abelian quotient of the multiplicative group W(A,) of Witt vectors 1+a₁z+a₂z²+ ··· A[[z]]. An example is constructed to show that in general the natural surjection W(A, )^ab W₁(A, ) is not an isomorphism.     

Non removable edges in 3-connected cubic graphs

LetG be a cyclicallyk-edge-connected cubic graph withk 3. Lete be an edge ofG. LetG be the cubic graph obtained fromG by deletinge and its end vertices. The edgee is said to bek-removable ifG is also cyclicallyk-edge-connected. Let us denote by S _k (G) the graph induced by thek-removable edges and by N _k (G) the graph induced by the non 3-removable edges ofG. In a previous paper [7], we have proved that N ₃(G) is empty if and only ifG is cyclically 4-edge connected and that if N ₃(G) is not empty then it is a forest containing at least three trees. Andersen, Fleischner and Jackson [1] and, independently, McCuaig [11] studied N ₄(G). Here, we study the structure of N _k (G) fork 5 and we give some constructions of graphs such thatN _k (G) = E(G). We note that the main result of this paper (Theorem 5) has been announced independently by McCuaig [11].

Interpolation theorems for a family of spanning subgraphs

Let G be a graph with order p, size q and component number . For each i between p – and q, let be the family of spanning i-edge subgraphs of G with exactly components. For an integer-valued graphical invariant if H H is an adjacent edge transformation (AET) implies |(H)-(H^')|1 then is said to be continuous with respect to AET. Similarly define the continuity of with respect to simple edge transformation (SET). Let M _j() and m _j() be the invariants defined by . It is proved that both M _p–() and m _p–(;) interpolate over , if is continuous with respect to AET, and that M _j() and m _j() interpolate over , if is continuous with respect to SET. In this way a lot of known interpolation results, including a theorem due to Schuster etc., are generalized.
