Convexity theories III. Classification of certain real convexity theories

In this paper we classify all real convexity theories that contain the standard convexity theory _c. For this purpose we consider three subcases: finitary; infinitary and (_sc\_c)Ø; infinitary and _sc=_c. In each of these subcases one encounters a phenomenon resembling bifurcation.This research was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.     

Growth of length of sequential derivation transformed into natural one

We consider the (&, )-fragment of the intuitionistic propositional calculus. 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.

Stability and uniqueness of the solution of the inverse kinematic problem of seismology in higher dimensions

The following inverse kinematic problem of seismology is considered. In the compact domain M of dimension ,2 with the metric, we consider the problem of constructing a new metricdu=nds according to the known formula where ,M and K_, is the geodesic in the metric du, connecting the points , . One proves uniqueness and one obtains a stability estimate, where the refraction indices n₁, n₂ are the solutions of the inverse kinematic problem, constructed relative to the functions ₁, ₂, respectively, is the differential form on M×Mwhere =₂–₁,.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

On the Continuity of Pathwise Solutions to Langevin Equations in Infinite Dimensions

We fix a rich probability space (,F,P). Let (H,) be a separable Hilbert space and let be the canonical cylindrical Gaussian measure on H. Given any abstract Wiener space (H,B,) over H, and for every Hilbert–Schmidt operator T: HBH which is (|{}|,)-continuous, where |{}| stands for the (Gross-measurable) norm on B, we construct an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process : (,F,P)×[0,1](B,|{}|) as a pathwise solution of the following infinite-dimensional Langevin equation d _t =db _t +T( _t )dt with the initial data ₀=0, where b is a B-valued Brownian motion based on the abstract Wiener space (H,B,). The richness of the probability space (,F,P) then implies the following consequences: the probability space is independent of the abstract Wiener space (H,B,) (in the sense that (,F,P) does not depend on the choice of the Gross-measurable norm |{}|) and the space C _B consisting of all continuous B-valued functions on [0,1] is identical with the set of all paths of . Finally, we present a way to obtain pathwise continuous solutions :d _t =

Covering the Hecke Triangle Surfaces

In the mid-1980s an equivalence was established between the simple closed geodesics on the Riemann surfaces obtained as quotients of the upper half plane H by any of the following subgroups of the modular group (1) : , (3), and ³. An axis of a hyperbolic element of (1) projects to a simple closed geodesic on one of these surfaces if and only if it does so on the other two.This equivalence was used to obtain a variety of Diophantine and geometric results. In subsequent related investigations, the role of (1) was assumed by the Hecke triangle group G_q for q 3. (For q = 3, we have (1) = G₃.) These works employed the analog of ³, denoted _q.In the context of the G_q, the present paper gives the analog of , which we denote _q. As in the case q = 3, we have [_q:_q] = 2. A rather full discussion of geometry of _q\ H is given. In particular, we demonstrate that the equivalence of simple closed geodesics on _q\ H and _q\ H does not hold for q 7.As of this writing, we have not been able to obtain an appropriate analog of (3).

The order of approximation to functions of the Zα. Class by means of positive linear operators

Let C_n (, ) be the upper bound for deviations of periodic functions which form the Zygmund class Z,0 0<<2 from a class of positive linear operators. A study is made of the conditions under which there exists a limit nC_n(, )=C(, ). An explicit expression is given for the functions C(,).Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 4, No. 2, pp. 201–210, August, 1968.     

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.     

Stationary Gaussian processes with a finite correlation function

If the correlation function vanishes outside the segment [–R, R], then an upper estimate (uniform with respect to all such processes) is possible for the probability of the fact that on an other segment [–r, r] the process remains between – and . Such an estimate is obtained, decreasing for 0 asexp(–f(r/R ln ²+ ) and, moreover,r/R may be either 0 or +. The proof is based on an estimate of the form P_mQ_n c_mn P_m Q_n for norms of polynomials on a circle in the complex plane.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Errors in approximate solutions of Cauchy's problem for a first-order quasilinear equation

The proximity is investigated of the solution of Cauchy's problem for the equation u _t +((u))_x= u _xx ((u) > 0) to the solution of Cauchy's problem for the equation u_t+ ((u))_x= 0, when the solution of the latter problem has a finite number of lines of discontinuity in the strip 0 t T. It is proved that, everywhere outside a fixed neighborhood of the lines of discontinuity, we have |u–u| C, where the constant C is independent of. Similar inequalities are derived for the first derivatives of u–u.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 8, No. 3, pp. 309–320, September, 1970.In conclusion we express our gratitude to L. A.

Multi-Faithful Spanning Trees of Infinite Graphs

For an end and a tree T of a graph G we denote respectively by m() and m _T () the maximum numbers of pairwise disjoint rays of G and T belonging to , and we define tm() := min{m _T(): T is a spanning tree of G}. In this paper we give partial answers — affirmative and negative ones — to the general problem of determining if, for a function f mapping every end of G to a cardinal f() such that tm() f() m(), there exists a spanning tree T of G such that m _T () = f() for every end of G.     

Fields with vanishing K2. Torsion in H1(X,K2) and Ch2(x)

This paper describes fields F of nonzero characteristic with the property that for all finite extensions E/F K₂E=0. We consider a somewhat wider class of fields which includes finite and separably closed fields. For smooth projective varieties X over such a field we show that the groups H¹(X, K₂){} and H²(X_et, (2)), NH³(X_et, (2)) and Ch²(X){} are isomorphic. These results are applied to describe the groups SK₁ of a smooth affine curve over such a field.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im. V.

Lipschitz and darbo conditions for the superposition operator in ideal spaces

Summary In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the superposition operator Fx(s)=f(s, x(s)) to satisfy a Lipschitz condition Fx₁ - Fx₂kx₁ - x₂ or a Darbo condition (FN)k(N) in ideal spaces of measurable functions, where is the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness. Moreover, we characterize a large class of spaces in which the above mentioned two conditions are equivalent.

Stability of unconditional convergence almost everywhere

We will investigate the properties of series of functions which are unconditionally convergent almost everywhere on [0, 1]. We will establish the following theorem: If the series _k=1 f _k(x) converges unconditionally almost everywhere, then there exists a sequence {_k} ₁ ,_k , such that if _{k k} , k=1, 2,..., the series _{k=1 k}/k(x) converges unconditionally almost every-where.Translated from Mate matte heskie Zametki, Vol. 14, No. 5, pp. 645–654, November, 1973.The author wishes to thank Professor P.
