REMARKS ON JOHN DISKS

Let D■R2 be a Jordan domain,D*=R2\D,the exterior of D.In this article,the authors obtained the following results:(1)If D is a John disk,then D is an outer linearly locally connected domain;(2)If D* is a John disk,then D is an inner linearly locally connected domain;(3)A homeomorphism f:R 2 →R 2 is a quasiconformal mapping if and only if f(D)is a John disk for any John disk D■R 2 ;and(4)If D is a bounded quasidisk,then D is a John disk,and there exists an unbounded quasidisk which is not a John disk.     

Complex symmetric operators and applications

We study a few classes of Hilbert space operators whose matrix representations are complex symmetric with respect to a preferred orthonormal basis. The existence of this additional symmetry has notable implications and, in particular, it explains from a unifying point of view some classical results. We explore applications of this symmetry to Jordan canonical models, self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators, rank-one unitary perturbations of the compressed shift, Darlington synthesis and matrix-valued inner functions, and free bounded analytic interpolation in the disk.

     

Finite Element Approximation of Conformal Mappings to Unbounded Jordan Domains

In two-dimensional Euclidean space, a simply connected unbounded domain whose boundary is a Jordan curve is called an unbounded Jordan domain. In this article, we discuss a piecewise linear finite element approximation of conformal mappings from the unit disk of the plane to unbounded Jordan domains. Some convergence results and error analysis are presented. Numerical examples are also given.     

Numerical conformal mapping of multiply connected regions by Fornberg-like methods

Summary. We develop a new algorithm for computing conformal maps from regions exterior to non-overlapping disks to unbounded multiply connected regions exterior to non-overlapping, smoothly bounded Jordan regions. The method is an extension of Fornberg's original Newton-like method for mapping of the disk to simply connected regions. A Fortran program based on the algorithm has been developed and tested for the 2 and 3 disk case. Numerical examples are reported.

Bounded critical Fatou components are Jordan domains for polynomials

We prove that any bounded Fatou component of a polynomial of degree at least two, which is not(eventually) a Siegel disk, is a Jordan domain.     

Mappings by the solutions of second-order elliptic equations

The properties of mappings by the solutions of second-order elliptic partial differential equations in the plane are studied. We obtain conditions on a function, continuous on the unit circle, that are sufficient for the solution of the Dirichlet problem in the open unit disk for the given equation with the given boundary function to be a homeomorphism between the open unit disk and a Jordan simply connected domain. The properties of the zeros of the solutions of the given equations are also studied. In particular, an analog of the main theorem of algebra is proved for polynomial solutions.     

可换环上上三角矩阵代数的局部若当导子和局部若当自同构

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, Tn （R） the R-algebra of all upper triangular n by n matrices over R. In this paper, it is proved that every local Jordan derivation of Tn （R） is an inner derivation and that every local Jordan automorphism of Tn（R） is a Jordan automorphism. As applications, we show that local derivations and local automorphisms of Tn （R） are inner.

Towards a goldie theory for jordan pairs

A Goldie theory for Jordan pairs is started in this paper. We introduce a notion of order in linear Jordan pairs and study orders in nondegenerate linear Jordan pairs with descending chain condition on principal inner ideals. This work has been supported by DGICYT Grant PB93-0990 and by the “Convenio Marco de Cooperación Hispano-Marroquí”     

A note on Faber operator

For a rectifable Jordan curve Γ with complementary domainsD and D,Anderson conjectured that the Faber operator is a bounded isomorphism between the Besov spaces Bp(1 p ∞) of analytic functions in the unit disk and in the inner domain D,respectively.We point out that the conjecture is not true in the special case p=2,and show that in this case the Faber operator is a bounded isomorphism if and only if Γ is a quasi-circle.     

The socle of a nondegenerate Lie algebra

We define the socle of a nondegenerate Lie algebra as the sum of all its minimal inner ideals. The socle turns out to be an ideal which is a direct sum of simple ideals, and satisfies the descending chain condition on principal inner ideals. Every classical finite dimensional Lie algebra coincides with its socle, while relevant examples of infinite dimensional Lie algebras with nonzero socle are the simple finitary Lie algebras and the classical Banach Lie algebras of compact operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. This notion of socle for Lie algebras is compatible with the previous ones for associative algebras and Jordan systems. We conclude with a structure theorem for simple nondegenerate Lie algebras containing abelian minimal inner ideals, and as a consequence we obtain that a simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 is finitary if and only if it is nondegenerate and contains a rank-one element.

Strict proper nilness modulo an absorber

An element z of a Jordan system J is strictly properly nilpotent if it is nilpotent in all homotopes of all extensions of J; it is strictly properly nilpotent of bounded index if there is a bound on its indices of nilpotence in all these extensions. We showed in a previous paper that the strictly properly nilpotent elements (resp. those of bounded index) form an ideal, by exhibiting that ideal as an Amitsur shrinkage. In this paper we prove by combinatorial methods (the exponential law for power series and Jordan Binomial Theorems) a modular generalization of this: the elements strictly properly nilpotent (resp. boundedly so) modulo the absorber Q of an inner ideal K form an ideal. As a corollary we obtain Zelmanov’s Nilness-mod-the-Absorber-Theorem that the ideal generated by Q is nil mod K. From this we re-derive his Primitive Absorber and Exceptional Heart Theorems (improved to show the heart is S(J), not just S( (J)³), two results crucial to the structure of primitive Jordan systems, using a triple-system version of Zelmanov's KKT-specialization for inner ideals in a Jordan pair.     

Approximation of Cauchy-Type Integrals

We investigate approximations of analytic functions determined by Cauchy-type integrals in Jordan domains of the complex plane. We develop, modify, and complete (in a certain sense) our earlier results. Special attention is given to the investigation of approximation of functions analytic in a disk by Taylor sums. In particular, we obtain asymptotic equalities for upper bounds of the deviations of Taylor sums on the classes of -integrals of functions analytic in the unit disk and continuous in its closure. These equalities are a generalization of the known Stechkin's results on the approximation of functions analytic in the unit disk and having bounded rth derivatives (here, r is a natural number).On the basis of the results obtained for a disk, we establish pointwise estimates for the deviations of partial Faber sums on the classes of -integrals of functions analytic in domains with rectifiable Jordan boundaries. We show that, for a closed domain, these estimates are exact in order and exact in the sense of constants with leading terms if and only if this domain is a Faber domain.

On the structure of inner ideals of nest algebras

IfA is a nest algebra andA _s=A ∩ A* , whereA* is the set of the adjoints of the operators lying inA, then the pair (A, A _s) forms a partial Jordan *-triple. Important tools when investigating the structure of a partial Jordan *-triple are its tripotents. In particular, given an orthogonal family of tripotents of the partial Jordan *-triple (A, A _s), the nest algebraA splits into a direct sum of subspaces known as the Peirce decomposition relative to that family. In this paper, the Peirce decomposition relative to an orthogonal family of minimal tripotents is used to investigate the structure of the inner ideals of (A, A _s), whereA is a nest algebra associated with an atomic nest. A property enjoyed by inner ideals of the partial Jordan *-triple (A, A _s) is presented as the main theorem. This result is then applied in the final part of the paper to provide examples of inner ideals. A characterization of the minimal tripotents as a certain class of rank one operators is also obtained as a means to deduce the principal theorem.     

Weighted Bergman Spaces: Shift-Invariant Subspaces and Input/State/Output Linear Systems

It is well known that subspaces of the Hardy space over the unit disk which are invariant under the backward shift occur as the image of an observability operator associated with a discrete-time linear system with stable state-dynamics, as well as the functional-model space for a Hilbert space contraction operator, while forward shift-invariant subspaces have a representation in terms of an inner function. We discuss several variants of these statements in the context of weighted Bergman spaces on the unit disk.     

Quasiconformal harmonic mappings between \fancyscriptC1,m{{\fancyscript{C}}^{1,\mu}} Euclidean surfaces

The conformal deformations are contained in two classes of mappings quasiconformal and harmonic mappings. In this paper we consider the intersection of these classes. We show that, every K quasiconformal harmonic mapping between surfaces with boundary is a Lipschitz mapping. This extends some recent results of several authors where the same problem has been considered for plane domains. As an application it is given an explicit Lipschitz constant of normalized isothermal coordinates of a disk-type minimal surface in terms of boundary curve only. It seems that this kind of estimates are new for conformal mappings of the unit disk onto a Jordan domain as well.
