Holomorphe Funktionen auf Gebieten über Banach-Räumen zu vorgegebenen Konvergenzradien

Given a function: ₊ on a domain spread over an infinite dimensional complex Banach space E with a Schauder basis such that -log is plurisubharmonic and d (d denotes the boundary distance on ) one can find a holomorphic function f: with _f, where _f is the radius of convergence of f. If, in addition, is locally Lipschitz continuous with constant 1, f can be chosen so that (3M)^–1 _f, where M is the basis constant of E. In the particular case of E= ₁ there are holomorphic functions f on with= _f.     

The Whitehead Group of the Novikov Ring

The Bass–Heller–Swan–Farrell–Hsiang–Siebenmann decomposition of the Whitehead group K ₁(A[z,z^-1]) of a twisted Laurent polynomial extension A[z,z^-1] of a ring A is generalized to a decomposition of the Whitehead group K ₁(A((z))) of a twisted Novikov ring of power series A((z))=A[[z]][z^-1]. The decomposition involves a summand W₁(A, ) which is an Abelian quotient of the multiplicative group W(A,) of Witt vectors 1+a₁z+a₂z²+ ··· A[[z]]. An example is constructed to show that in general the natural surjection W(A, )^ab W₁(A, ) is not an isomorphism.     

A Comparison of Two Spaces of Generalized White Noise Functionals

In the literature (see [5, 6, 8]) there are two families of spaces called Kondratiev spaces: (_c)^± and (S _c)^± for 0 1. We investigate the relation between the spaces and show that they are topologically isomorphic when (^d) L2 (^d) (^d) is the underlying Gel'fand triple for (_c)^±. In this case we also give the explicit relation between the S-transform and -transform on (_c)^-1 and (S _c)^-1, respectively.     

Best approximation and best unilateral approximation of the kernel of a biharmonic equation and optimal renewal of the values of operators

For the classB _p , 0 < 1, 1p , of 2-periodic functions of the form f(t)=u(,t), whereu (,t) is a biharmonic function in the unit disk, we obtain the exact values of the best approximation and best unilateral approximation of the kernel K(t) of the convolution f= K *g, gl, with respect to the metric of L₁. We also consider the problem of renewal of the values of the convolution operator by using the information about the values of the boundary functions.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol.47, No. 11, pp. 1549–1557, November, 1995.

Let F be a field, G _F its absolute Galois group, : G _FGL(C) a continuous complex representation of G _F and c _i() H_2i(F, Z) its Chern classes. We show, under a mild assumption on F. that c _i ()=0 for all i2. For general F, one has that 2c_i ()=0 for all i 2.

Linear cyclic codes of wordlength v over GF(q s ) which are also linear cyclic codes of wordlength sv over GF(q)

Any nonsingular linear transformation : GF(q^s) GF(q^s) can be used to treat a linear cyclic code of wordlength v over GF(q^s) as a linear code () of Wordlength sv over GF(q). This paper determines those linear cyclic codes and transformations for which the resulting linear code () is also cyclic.     

Some inequalities about the covering radius of Reed-Muller codes

Let R(r, m) be the rth order Reed-Muller code of length 2 ^m , and let (r, m) be its covering radius. We prove that if 2 k m - r - 1, then (r + k, m + k) (r, m + 2(k - 1). We also prove that if m - r 4, 2 k m - r - 1, and R(r, m) has a coset with minimal weight (r, m) which does not contain any vector of weight (r, m) + 2, then (r + k, m + k) (r, m) + 2k(. These inequalities improve repeated use of the known result (r + 1, m + 1) (r, m).This work was supported by a grant from the Research Council of Wright State University.     

Relationship between the Hadamard Theorem on Three Disks and Certain Problems of Polynomial Approximation of Analytic Functions

By using the classical Hadamard theorem, we obtain an exact (in a certain sense) inequality for the best polynomial approximations of an analytic function f(z) from the Hardy space H _p, p 1, in disks of radii , ₁, and ₂, 0 < ₁ < < ₂ < 1.     

Taut Distance-Regular Graphs of Odd Diameter

Let denote a bipartite distance-regular graph with diameter D 4, valency k 3, and distinct eigenvalues ₀ > ₁ > ··· > _D. Let M denote the Bose-Mesner algebra of . For 0 i D, let E _i denote the primitive idempotent of M associated with _i . We refer to E ₀ and E _D as the trivial idempotents of M. Let E, F denote primitive idempotents of M. We say the pair E, F is taut whenever (i) E, F are nontrivial, and (ii) the entry-wise product E F is a linear combination of two distinct primitive idempotents of M. We show the pair E, F is taut if and only if there exist real scalars , such that _{i + 1 i + 1} – _{i – 1 i – 1} = _i ( _{i + 1} – _{i – 1}) + _i ( _{i + 1} – _{i – 1}) + (1 i D – 1)where ₀, ₁, ..., _D and ₀, ₁, ..., _D denote the cosine sequences of E, F, respectively. We define to be taut whenever has at least one taut pair of primitive idempotents but is not 2-homogeneous in the sense of Nomura and Curtin. Assume is taut and D is odd, and assume the pair E, F is taut. We show

Wave operators in a multistratified strip

One investigates the scattering theory for the positive self-adjoint operatorH=–· acting in with = × and a bounded open set in ^n–1,n2. The real-valued function belongs toL (), is bounded from below byc>0 and there exist real-valued functions ₁ and ₂ inL () such that – _j ,j=1,2 is a short range perturbation of _j when (–1) ^j x _n +. One assumes _j = ^(j) 1_R,j=1,2, with ^(j) L bounded from below byc>0. One proves the existence and completeness of the generalized wave operators _j ^± =s – _j e ^–itHj ,j=1,2, withH _j =–· _j and _j : equal to 1 if (–1) ^j x _n >0 and to 0 if (–1) ^j x _n <0. The ranges ofW _j ^± :=( _j ^± )^* are characterized so that W ₁ ^± =Ran and . The scattering operator can then be defined.     

Further results on the covering radii of the Reed-Muller codes

LetR(r, m) by therth order Reed-Muller code of length2 ^m , and let (r, m) be its covering radius. We obtain the following new results on the covering radius ofR(r, m): 1. (r+1,m+2) 2(r, m)+2 if 0rm–2. This improves the successive use of the known inequalities (r+1,m+2)2(r+1,m+1) and (r+1,m+1) (r, m).2.(2, 7)44. Previously best known upper bound for (2, 7) was 46. 3. The covering radius ofR(1,m) inR(m–1,m) is the same as the covering radius ofR(1,m) inR(m–2,m) form4.     

The Hilbert–Poincaré Series for Some Algebras of Invariants of Cyclic Groups

Let be a linear representation of a finite group over a field of characteristic 0. Further, let R be the corresponding algebra of invariants, and let P (t) be its Hilbert–Poincaré series. Then the series P (t) represents a rational function (t)/(t). If R is a complete intersection, then (t) is a product of cyclotomic polynomials. Here we prove the inverse statement for the case where is an almost regular (in particular, regular) representation of a cyclic group. This yields an answer to a question of R.

Global properties of solutions to 1D-viscous compressible barotropic fluid equations with density dependent viscosity

The Navier-Stokes equations for compressible barotropic fluid in 1D with the mass force under zero velocity boundary conditions are studied. We prove the uniform upper and lower bounds for the density as well as the uniform in time L ²()-estimates for _x and u _x (u is the velocity). Moreover, a collection of the decay rate estimates for - (with being the stationary density) and u in ²()-norm and H ¹()-norm as time t are established. The results are given for general state function p() (but mainly monotone) and viscosity coefficient µ() of arbitrarily fast (or slow) growth as well as for the large data.     

Some observations on the distribution of values of continued fractions

Summary There have been many studies of the values taken on by continued fractionsK(a _n /1) when its elements are all in a prescribed setE. The set of all values taken on is the limit regionV(E). It has been conjectured that the values inV(E), are taken on with varying probabilities even when the elementsa _n are uniformly distributed overE. In this article, we present the first concrete evidence that this is indeed so. We consider two types of element regions: (A)E is an interval on the real axis. Our best results are for intervals [–(1–), (1–)], 0 <1/2. (B)E is a disk in the complex plane defined byE={z:|z|(1–)}., 0<1/2.     

Approximation of the viability kernel

We study recursive inclusionsx ⁿ⁺¹ G(x ⁿ ). For instance, such systems appear for discrete finite-difference inclusionsx ⁿ⁺¹ G (x ⁿ) whereG :=1+F. The discrete viability kernel ofG , i.e., the largest discrete viability domain, can be an internal approximation of the viability kernel ofK underF. We study discrete and finite dynamical systems. In the Lipschitz case we get a generalization to differential inclusions of the Euler and Runge-Kutta methods. We prove first that the viability kernel ofK underF can be approached by a sequence of discrete viability kernels associated withx ⁿ⁺¹ (xⁿ) where (x) =x + F(x) + (ML/2) ². Secondly, we show that it can be approached by finite viability kernels associated withx _h ⁿ⁺¹ ( (x _h ⁿ⁺¹ ) +(h) X _h .     

The broken sample problem

Suppose that (X_i,Y_i),i=1,2, ... ,n, are iid. random vectors with uniform marginals and a certain joint distribution F, where is a parameter with =_o corresponds to the independence case. However, the Xs and Ys are observed separately so that the pairing information is missing. Can be consistently estimated? This is an extension of a problem considered in (1980) which focused on the bivariate normal distribution with being the correlation. In this paper we show that consistent discrimination between two distinct parameter values ₁ and ₂ is impossible if the density f of F is square integrable and the second largest singular value of the linear operator is strictly less than 1 for =₁ and ₂. We also consider this result from the perspective of a bivariate empirical process which contains information equivalent to that of the broken sample.Dedicated to Professor Xiru Chen on His 70th BirthdayMathematics Subject Classification (2000): primary: 60F99, 62F12Research supported by NSFC Grant 201471000 and the NUS Grant R-155-000-040-112.Research supported by the Texas Advanced Research Program.

Time decay for nonlinear wave equations in two space dimensions

The Cauchy Problem for the equation u_tt–u+|u|^p–1u=0 (x², t>0, >1) is studied. Smooth Cauchy data is prescribed, and no smallness condition is imposed. For >5, it is shown that the maximum amplitude of such a wave decays at the expected rate t^–1/2 as t. For 1+8<5, the maximum amplitude still decays, but at a slower rate. These results are then used to demonstrate the existence of the scattering operator when >_o, where _o is the root of the cubic equation ³-2²-7-8=0; thus _o4.15.Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow

The relationship between the radical of a ringR and a structural matrix ring overR has been determined for some radicals. We continue these investigations, amongst others, determining exactly which radicals have the property (M(,R))=M( _s ,(R))+M( _a ,⁺(R))for any structural matrix ringM(,R) and finding (M(,R)) for any hereditary subidempotent radical .
