On <Emphasis Type="Italic">t</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-like solutions of certain second order differential equations

Via an integral transformation, we establish two embedding results between the Emden-Fowler type equation , t ≥ t ₀ > 0, with solutions x such that as , , and the equation , u > 0, with solutions y such that for given k > 0. The conclusions of our investigation are used to derive conditions for the existence of radial solutions to the elliptic equation , , that blow up as in the two dimensional case.

Pairs of numerically satisfactory solutions as for the three-term recurrence relations satisfied by the families of functions , , are given. It is proved that minimal solutions always exist, except when and z is in the positive or negative real axis, and that is minimal as whenever . The minimal solution is identified for any recurrence direction, that is, for any integer values of and . When the confluent limit , with fixed, is the main tool for identifying minimal solutions together with a connection formula; for , is the main tool to be considered.

As a consequence we characterize the compactness of differences of composition operators on weighted Bloch spaces.      

Velocity Averaging Lemmas in Hyperbolic Sobolev Spaces for the Kinetic Transport Equation with Velocity Field on the Sphere

We show how the methods of [6–8] can be used to prove velocity averaging lemmas in hyperbolic Sobolev spaces for the kinetic transport equation . Here v is allowed to vary in the whole space and the velocity field lies on the unit sphere. We work in dimensions and, in contrast with [6, 8], we allow right-hand sides with velocity derivatives in any direction and not necessarily tangential to the sphere.

In this paper, we calculate the weights of under some non-degeneracy conditions on f. Our results can be used to estimate sums of the form

Characterizing cryptogroups with a finite number of $${\mathcal{H}}$$ -classes in each $${\mathcal{D}}$$ -class by their subsemigroups

We construct a family of completely regular semigroups with the property that each completely regular semigroup S with a finite number of -classes in each -class is non-cryptic if and only if S contains an isomorphic image of a member of . Each member F of is an ideal extension of a Rees matrix semigroup J by a cyclic group B with a zero adjoined and the identity of B is the identity of F. Here with I and Λ finite, G is given by generators and relations, and P is given explicitly. Within completely regular semigroups, the cryptic property is equivalent to where is the natural partial order and a if and only if a ² = ab = ba. Hence the above result can be formulated in terms of and .

Janssen and extend their ideas to cover interrelations among Gabor frames for the four spaces , , and . Some new results about general dual windows with respect to sampling and periodization are presented as well. This theory is used to show a new result of the Kaiblinger type to construct an approximation to the canonical dual window of a Gabor frame for .

Intersection homology Künneth theorems

Cohen, Goresky, and Ji showed that there is a Künneth theorem relating the intersection homology groups to and , provided that the perversity satisfies rather strict conditions. We consider biperversities and prove that there is a Künneth theorem relating to and for all choices of and . Furthermore, we prove that the Künneth theorem still holds when the biperversity p, q is “loosened” a little, and using this we recover the Künneth theorem of Cohen–Goresky–Ji.

Parabolic twists for the linear algebras <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>−1</Subscript>

New solutions of twist equations for the universal enveloping algebras U (A_n−1) are found. These solutions can be represented as products of full chains of extended Jordanian twists Abelian factors (“rotations”) , and sets of quasi-Jordanian twists . The latter are generalizations of Jordanian twists (with carrier b²) for special deformed extensions of the Hopf algebra U (b²). The carrier subalgebra for the composition is a nonminimal parabolic subalgebra in A _n−1 such that . The parabolic twisting elements are obtained in an explicit form. Details of the construction are illustrated by considering the examples n = 4 and n = 11. Bibliography: 21 titles. Published in Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 347, 2007, pp. 187–213.

On the expansion of the resolvent for elliptic boundary contact problems

Let A be an elliptic operator on a compact manifold with boundary , and let be a covering map, where Y is a closed manifold. Let A _C be a realization of A subject to a coupling condition C that is elliptic with parameter in the sector Λ. By a coupling condition we mean a nonlocal boundary condition that respects the covering structure of the boundary. We prove that the resolvent trace for N sufficiently large has a complete asymptotic expansion as . In particular, the heat trace has a complete asymptotic expansion as , and the -function has a meromorphic extension to .      

Three-dimensional sets with small sumset

We describe the structure of three dimensional sets of lattice points, having a small doubling property. Let be a finite subset of ℤ³ such that dim = 3. If and , then lies on three parallel lines. Moreover, for every three dimensional finite set that lies on three parallel lines, if , then is contained in three arithmetic progressions with the same common difference, having together no more than terms.

Determination of simple CM abelian surfaces defined over $${\mathbb{Q}}$$

It is known that in the moduli space of elliptic curves, there exist precisely nine -rational points represented by an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by the maximal order of an imaginary quadratic field. In Murabayashi and Umegaki (J Algebra 235:267–274, 2001) and Umegaki [Determination of all -rational CM-points in the moduli spaces of polarized abelian surfaces, Analytic number theory (Beijng/Kyoto, 1999). Dev. Math., vol 6. Kluwer, Dordrecht, pp 349–357, 2002] we determined all -rational points in (the moduli space of d-polarized abelian surfaces) represented by a d-polarized abelian surface whose endomorphism ring is isomorphic to the maximal order of a quartic CM-field by using the result in Murabayashi (J Reine Angew Math 470:1–26, 1996). In this paper, we prove that polarized abelian surfaces corresponding to these -rational CM points have a -rational model by constructing certain Hecke characters.
