<Emphasis Type="Italic">∂</Emphasis>-operations and <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">V</Emphasis></Subscript>-fields

The hyperoperations, called theta-operations （δ）, are motivated from the usual property, which the derivative has on the derivation of a product of functions. Using any map on a set, one can define δ-operations. In this paper, we continue our study on the δ-operations on groupoids, rings, fields and vector spaces or on the corresponding hyperstructures. Using δ-operations one obtains, mainly, Hwstructures, which form the largest class of the hyperstructures. For representation theory of hyperstructures, by hypermatrices, one needs special Hv-rings or Hy-fields, so these hyperstructures can be used. Moreover, we study the relation of these δ-structures with other classes of hyperstructures, especially with the Hv-structures.     

Semiclassical <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> Estimates

The purpose of this paper is to use semiclassical analysis to unify and generalize L ^p estimates on high energy eigenfunctions and spectral clusters. In our approach these estimates do not depend on ellipticity and order, and apply to operators which are selfadjoint only at the principal level. They are estimates on weakly approximate solutions to semiclassical pseudodifferential equations. Submitted: May 11, 2006. Accepted: September 19, 2006.     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-termed approximations in <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis></Superscript>-norms with respect to the Haar system

In [9], we proved numerically that spaces generated by linear combinations of some two-dimensional Haar functions exhibit unexpectedly nice orders of approximation for solutions of the single-layer potential equation in a rectangle. This phenomenon is closely related, on the one hand, to the properties of the approximation method of hyperbolic crosses and on the other to the existence of a strong singularity for solutions of such boundary integral equations. In the present paper, we establish several results on the approximation for the hyperbolic crosses and on the best N-term approximations by linear combinations of Haar functions in the H ^s -norms, −1 < s < 1/2; this provides a theoretical base for our numerical research. To the author's best knowledge, the negative smoothness case s < 0 was not studied earlier. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika. Fundamental'nye Napravleniya (Contemporary Mathematics.

These results are applied to the usual Laplacian on Rⁿ and sub-Laplacians on nilpotent Lie groups.

On deformations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Subscript> in compact Lie groups

We study some properties of the varieties of deformations of free groups in compact Lie groups. In particular, we prove a conjecture of Margulis and Soifer about the density of non-virtually free points in such variety, and a conjecture of Goldman on the ergodicity of the action of Aut(F _n ) on such variety when n ≥ 3.

Optimal <Emphasis Type="Italic">W</Emphasis><Superscript>1,<Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> regularity theory for parabolic equations in divergence form

This work treats L^p regularity theory for weak solutions of parabolic equations in divergence form with discontinuous coefficients on nonsmooth domains. We essentially obtain an optimal condition on the coefficients under which the global W^1,p regularity theory holds. This work was supported by SNU foundation in 2005.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Subscript>-nearest neighbor estimators of entropy

For estimating the entropy of an absolutely continuous multivariate distribution, we propose nonparametric estimators based on the Euclidean distances between the n sample points and their k _n -nearest neighbors, where {k _n : n = 1, 2, …} is a sequence of positive integers varying with n. The proposed estimators are shown to be asymptotically unbiased and consistent.      

On the <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript> norm of spectral clusters for compact manifolds with boundary

We use microlocal and paradifferential techniques to obtain L ⁸ norm bounds for spectral clusters associated with elliptic second-order operators on two-dimensional manifolds with boundary. The result leads to optimal L ^q bounds, in the range 2⩽q⩽∞, for L ² - normalized spectral clusters on bounded domains in the plane and, more generally, for two-dimensional compact manifolds with boundary. We also establish new sharp L ^q estimates in higher dimensions for a range of exponents q̅_n⩽q⩽∞.

Companion <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>-algebras

In this paper we develop a theory of companion d-algebras in sufficient detail to demonstrate considerable parallelism with the theory of BCK-algebras as well as obtaining a collection of results of a novel type. Included among the latter are results on certain natural posets associated with companion d-algebras as well as constructions on Bin(X), the collection of binary operations on the set X, which permit construction of new companion d-algebras from companion d-algebras X also in natural ways.

Modulus Semigroups and Perturbation Classes for Linear Delay Equations in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>

In this paper we study C₀-semigroups on X × L_p( − h, 0; X) associated with linear differential equations with delay, where X is a Banach space. In the case that X is a Banach lattice with order continuous norm, we describe the associated modulus semigroup, under minimal assumptions on the delay operator. Moreover, we present a new class of delay operators for which the delay equation is well-posed for p in a subinterval of [1,∞). Dedicated to the memory of H. H. Schaefer     

Orthogonal separable Hamiltonian systems on <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>

In this paper we characterize the Liouvillian integrable orthogonal separable Hamiltonian systems on T ² for a given metric, and prove that the Hamiltonian flow on any compact level hypersurface has zero topological entropy. Furthermore, by examples we show that the integrable Hamiltonian systems on T ² can have complicated dynamical phenomena. For instance they can have several families of invariant tori, each family is bounded by the homoclinic-loop-like cylinders and heteroclinic-loop-like cylinders. As we know, it is the first concrete example to present the families of invariant tori at the same time appearing in such a complicated way.

Static spin susceptibility in the <Emphasis Type="Italic">t</Emphasis>-<Emphasis Type="Italic">J</Emphasis> model

Based on the equation-of-motion method for the relaxation function expressed in terms of Hubbard operators, we evaluate the static spin susceptibility and correlation functions in the two-dimensional t-J model. We show that at zero temperature, a long-range antiferromagnetic order exists in the lattice for the hole concentration δ < δ_c ≃ 0.018. The calculated dependences of the spin susceptibility and correlation length on the temperature and hole concentration agree qualitatively with the experiment. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 152, No. 3, pp. 538–550, September, 2007.

 Let f(2m,k) be the Maximum k-diameter of k-regular k-connected graphs on 2m vertices. In this paper we give an algorithm and prove that we can construct k-regular k-connected graphs on 2m vertices with the maximum k-diameter using it. We also prove some known results about f(2m,k) and verify that we can get some unknown values of f(2m,k) by our algorithm.

Discretization and resolution of the (<Emphasis Type="Italic">r</Emphasis>|<Emphasis Type="Italic">X</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript>)-medianoid problem involving quality criteria

In this paper an extension of the (r|X _p )-medianoid on networks introduced by Hakimi (1983) is studied. In this extension the customer considers not only the distance but some characteristics of the facilities such as store size, quality of service and parking space. A new firm wants to establishr new facilities which have to compete with thep facilities that already exist in the market. The entry firm wants to find their locations and characteristics to maximize profits. Three different customer choice rules (binary, partially binary and proportional preferences) are considered. Some discretization results are obtained and a resolution procedure is proposed. The problem is solved combining a global search algorithm based on a branch and bound procedure with some combinatorial heuristics (greedy, interchange, and tabu search). Some computational experiences are presented. Partially supported by Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología (Spain) and FEDER, grant BFM2002-04525-C02-01.     

The negative gradient flow for the <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-integral of Ricci curvature

 In this paper, the negative gradient flow for the L ²-integral of Ricci curvature on a 3-manifold is considered. It is not known whether the solution to this fourth order geometric evolution equation exists, and whether it will develop singularities in finite time. Based on the trick of De Turck and the idea of Hamilton on the flow of Ricci curvature, the local existence on any compact Riemannian manifold is obtained. In addition, the conditions for the occurences of singularities in finite time during the evolution and the asymptotic behavior of the flow on a 3-manifold are discussed.
