On the structure of nonarchimedean exponential fields I

Given an ordered fieldK, we compute the natural valuation and skeleton of the ordered multiplicative group (K ^>0, ·, 1, <) in terms of those of the ordered additive group (K,+,0,<). We use this computation to provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the value groupv(K) and residue field , for theL -equivalence of the above mentioned groups. We then apply the results to exponential fields, and describev(K) in that case. Finally, ifK is countable or a power series field, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions onv(K) and forK to be exponential. In the countable case, we get a structure theorem forv(K).This paper represents some results of the author's doctoral thesisThis paper was written while the author was supported by a research grant from the University of Heidelberg     

Uniform distribution and Hardy fields

Under certain regularity conditions on the growth at infinity of a real functionf (belonging to some Hardy field), asymptotic distribution modulo 1 of the values off is studied. In particular, necessary and sufficient conditions (in terms of the extent to whichf can be approximated by rational polynomals) are provided for the sequence {f(n)} _n≥1 to be uniformly distributed or dense modulo 1.

Operator theory in the Hardy space over the bidisk (I)

In this paper, we identify the vector valued Hardy space with the Hardy space over the bidisk and construct a universal model for thecontractive analytic functions. We will also study some elementary properties of the submodules and show, in some cases, how the operator theoretical properties are related to the module theoretical properties. The last part focus on the study of double commutativity of compression operators.     

Locally solvable vector fields and Hardy spaces

We characterize the boundary value of homegeneous solutions of planar one-sided locally solvable vector fields with analytic coefficients with the property that the Lp norm of their traces is locally uniformly bounded, 0<p?1. For p≠1/n, , the boundary value must locally belong to the local Hardy space hp(R) of Goldberg while for p=1/n, , the answer calls for a new class of atomic Hardy spaces if the vector field is of infinite type at some boundary point.     

Hardy type inequalities with exponential weights for a class of convolution operators

In this paper we consider operators of the form H=λ(-i∇), with λ analytic in a strip and with some specific growth conditions at infinity, and prove Hardy type estimates in L ²(ℝ ⁿ ) with exponential weights. In fact we extend our previous results [19] from bounded analytic functions on a strip to analytic functions with polynomial growth in that strip.     

Multipliers on Herz type Hardy spaces over local fields

In this paper, we establish two multiplier theorems for Herz type Hardy spaces, and as an application, we discuss the boundedness of pseudo-differential operators in these spaces.

Valuation theory: A constructive view

The theory of valuations on fields is developed in the constructive spirit of Errett Bishop. As a consequence of the general theory we are able to construct all nonarchimedean valuations on algebraic number fields and compute their ramification indices and residue class degrees. The notion of a field with a valuation for which the infimum of the values of any polynomial function can be computed plays an important role. Numerous limiting counterexamples are provided.     

Integration of locally exponential Lie algebras of vector fields

A locally convex Lie algebra is said to be locally exponential if it belongs to some local Lie group in canonical coordinates. In this note we give criteria for locally exponential Lie algebras of vector fields on an infinite-dimensional manifold to integrate to global Lie group actions. Moreover, we show that all necessary conditions are satisfied if the manifold is finite-dimensional connected and σ-compact, which leads to a generalization of Palais’ Integrability Theorem.

Mordell type exponential sum estimates in fields of prime order

We establish a Mordell type exponential sum estimate (see Mordell [Q. J. Math. 3 (1932) 161–162]) for ‘sparse’ polynomials $f(x)={\sum }_{i=1}^r{a}_i{x}^{k_i}\text{,}(a_i\text{,}p)=1\text{,}p$ prime, under essentially optimal conditions on the exponents $1?k_i<p?1$. The method is based on sum–product estimates in finite fields ${\mathbb{F}}_p$ and their Cartesian products. We also obtain estimates on incomplete sums of the form ${\sum }_{s=1}^t{e}_p({\sum }_{i=1}^r{a}_i{\theta }_i^s)$ for $t>p^{?}$, under appropriate conditions on the ${\theta }_i\in {\mathbb{F}}_p^{*}$.

Degree matrices and divisibility of exponential sums over finite fields

By using the degree matrix, we provide an elementary and algorithmic approach to estimating the divisibility of exponential sums over prime fields, which improves the Adolphson–Sperber theorem obtained by using the Newton polyhedron. Our result also improves the Ax–Katz theorem on estimating the number of rational points on hypersurfaces over prime fields.
