Characterization of types of asymptotic discernibility of families of hypotheses

We give a characterization of the types of asymptotic discernibility of families of hypotheses in the case of hypothetical measures that are not, in general, mutually absolutely continuous. The case when the logarithm of the likelihood ratio admits an asymptotic expansion of the type of an expansion with local asymptotic normality is examined in detail. Examples are studied.Translated fromTeoriya Sluchainykh Protsessov, Vol. 15, pp. 64–71, 1987.

Singularities of Solutions of One Class of Equations of Continuum Mechanics

We analyze one class of families of integral equations and describe the dependence of the singularities of solutions of integral equations on the dimensions of the families of kernels of equations. On the basis of these results, we propose procedures for the construction of approximate solutions for a small parameter.     

Axiomatizability of reducts of algebras of relations

In this paper, we prove that any subreduct of the class of representable relation algebras whose similarity type includes intersection, relation composition and converse is a non-finitely axiomatizable quasivariety and that its equational theory is not finitely based. We show the same result for subreducts of the class of representable cylindric algebras of dimension at least three whose similarity types include intersection and cylindrifications. A similar result is proved for subreducts of the class of representable sequential algebras. Received October 7, 1998; accepted in final form September 10, 1999.     

Construction of normal bases of rings of integral elements of certain fields of algebraic functions

This article is devoted to the construction of normal bases of rings of integral elements of certain fields of algebraic functions. These fields are algebraic extensions of the initial fields, given by appropriate algebraic equations. The extensions are given only by the monodromy group. The device of the matrix Riemann boundary-value problem on a Riemann surface is used.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 42, No. 7, pp. 1004–1007, July, 1990.     

Lengths of periods of continued fractions of square roots of integers

Empirical study of the period’s length T of the continued fractions of $\sqrt{Q}$ (for growing integers Q) shows several strange asymptotical results, for instance, $T\leq C\sqrt{Q}\ln{Q}$ . These results show important differences between the statistics of the elements of the continued fractions of random real numbers and of square roots of random integers.     

Determination of asymptotic solutions of problems of nonlinear theories of thermoviscoelasticity

It is shown that the asymptotic solution of a problem of the nonlinear theory of thermoviscoelasticity, if it exists, can be found directly from the solution of the asymptotic boundary-value problem without completely solving the starting problem.M.

Invariant properties of systems of equations of the mechanics of inhomogeneous fluids

The invariant properties of the fundamental system of equations of the mechanics of inhomogeneous fluids and its widely used approximations are analysed by the methods of continuous group theory. Simplifying assumptions significantly alter the invariant properties of the systems of equations. Both extending and contracting the admissible symmetry group can occur and provide evidence of the violation of the conditions of equivalence between the original and derived systems. For example, the use of the incompressibility and Boussinesq approximations leads to extension of the concept of an inertial reference frame to all frames moving relative to one another with arbitrary linear acceleration.     

Emptiness of set of points of lower semicontinuity of Lyapunov exponents

We consider parametric families of differential systems with coefficients that are bounded and continuous on the half-line and uniformly in time continuously depend on a real parameter. For each Lyapunov exponent, we construct a family such that the Lyapunov exponent of its systems treated as a function of the parameter is not a lower semicontinuous function for any value of the parameter.     

Variant of statistical interpretation of the formation of viscoelastic deformations of polymers

A variant of a statistical probability interpretation of elementary micromechanisms of formation of viscoelastic deformations of polymers is examined with the aid of the concept of dissymmetric media and the dissymmetry coefficient. A new rheological relationship is obtained, a particular case of which is the known equation of a typical linear viscoelastic body. A method is given for determining the relaxation spectrum for different intensity functions figuring in the rheological relationships. The results of the calculation are compared with the experimental data, exemplified by the creep of polyamide P-68.Institute of Polymer Mechanics, Academy of Sciences of the Latvian SSR, Riga.

Construction of a fundamental series of solutions of a pencil of matrices

Solution of spectral problems for a singular polynomial pencil of matrices D () of degree s1 and sizem×n is considered. Two algorithms for constructing polynomials solutions of pencils D () are considered: the first is a modification of an algorithm proposed earlier by one of the authors for determining polynomial solutions of a linear pencil; the second algorithm is based on other ideas and consists of two steps. At the first step a finite sequence of auxiliary pencils is constructed for each of which a basis of polynomial solutions of degree zero is found. At the second step the basis so constructed are rearranged into polynomial solutions of the original polynomial pencil D(). Both algorithms make it possible to find solutions of the original pencil in order of increasing degrees. For constructing a fundamental series of solutions of the pencil D() two new algorithms are proposed which work independently with either of the algorithms mentioned above for constructing polynomial solutions by rearranging them into linearly independent solutions of the pencil.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

The use of splitting of the equations of motion in the numerical solution of problems of the dynamics of elastic systems

Linear elastic systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom, the initial equations of motion of which are constructed using the finite element method or other discretization methods, are considered. Since, in applied dynamics problems, the motions are usually investigated in a frequency range with an upper bound, the degrees of freedom of the initial system of equations are split into dynamic and quasi-dynamic degrees. Finally, the initial system of equations is split into a small number of differential equations for the dynamic degrees of freedom and into a system of algebraic equations for determining the quasi-static displacements, represented in the form of a matrix series. The number of terms of the series taken into account depends on the accuracy required.

Regularity of minimizers of non-isotropic integrals of the calculus of variations

The regularity of the minimizers of a special type of non-isotropic variational minimization problem is studied. The particularity of the potential of energy is that it has different growth rate with respect to different parts of the derivatives of the function. In particular, the model treated in this paper can be described as $$\Phi (Du) = |\partial _1 u|^2 + |\partial _2 u|^2 + |\partial _3 u|^2 + |\partial _3 u - |^p .$$ By using a result of P.Marcellini (cf. [4]) and perturbation method, it is proved that the minimizer of the Dirichlet boundary value problem is a function of W _loc ^{1, ∞} .     

Asymptotic properties of the solutions of the equations of motion of gyroscopic systems

The motion of mechanical systems acted upon by gyroscopic and positional forces characterized by a large parameter in the corresponding equations of motion is considered. Periodic solutions of such equations were investigated earlier in [1, 2]. It is proved below that solutions of these equations exist, defined in an interval the length of which is a monotonically increasing unbounded function of the large parameter, and which transfer into the solutions of the corresponding degenerate systems as the large parameter approaches infinity. This function can be specified in more detail if additional assumptions are made regarding the properties of the system and the nature of the forces acting on it.     

Homology of algebras of families of pseudodifferential operators

We compute the Hochschild, cyclic, and periodic cyclic homology groups of algebras of families of Laurent complete symbols on manifolds with corners. We show in particular that the spectral sequence associated with Hochschild homology degenerates at E² and converges to Hochschild homology. As a byproduct, we identify the space of residue traces on fibrations by manifolds with corners. In the process, we prove some structural results about algebras of complete symbols on manifolds with corners.     

Tracing of pseudotrajectories of dynamical systems and stability of prolongations of orbits

We investigate properties of dynamical systems associated with the approximation of pseudotrajectories of a dynamical system by its trajectories. According to modern terminology, a property of this sort is called the “property of tracing pseudotrajectories” (also known in the English literature as the “shadowing property”). We prove that dynamical systems given by mappings of a compact set into itself and possessing this property are systems with stable prolongation of orbits. We construct examples of mappings of an interval into itself that prove that the inverse statement is not true, i.e., that dynamical systems with stable prolongation of orbits may not possess the property of tracing pseudotrajectories.
