Convergence of powers of composition operators on certain spaces of holomorphic functions defined on the right half plane

This paper studies the asymptotic behaviour of the powers \(C_\varphi ^n\) of a composition operator \(C_\varphi \) on certain spaces of holomorphic functions defined on the right half plane \(\mathbb {C}_+\). It is shown that for composition operators on the Hardy spaces and the standard weighted Bergman spaces, if the inducing map \(\varphi \) is not of parabolic type, then either the powers \(C_\varphi ^n\) converge uniformly only to 0 or they do not converge even strongly.     

Quasinormal and Hyponormal Weighted Composition Operators on $$H^2$$ and $$A^2_{\alpha }$$Aα2 with Linear Fractional Compositional Symbol

In this paper, we study quasinormal and hyponormal composition operators \(W_{\psi ,\varphi }\)  with linear fractional compositional symbol \(\varphi \) on the Hardy and weighted Bergman spaces. We characterize the quasinormal composition operators induced on \(H^{2}\) and \(A_{\alpha }^{2}\) by these maps and many such weighted composition operators, showing that they are necessarily normal in all known cases. We eliminate several possibilities for hyponormal weighted composition operators but also give new examples of hyponormal weighted composition operators on \(H^2\) which are not quasinormal.     

Sequences of Weighted Composition Operators on the Hardy–Hilbert Space

Let \(\varphi \) be an analytic self map of the open unit disc \(\mathbb {D}\). Assume that \(\psi \) is an analytic map of \(\mathbb {D}\). Suppose that f is in the Hardy–Hilbert space of the open unit disc \(H^2\). The operator that takes f into \(\psi \cdot f \circ \varphi \) is a weighted composition operator, and is denoted by \(C_{\psi ,\varphi }\). In this paper we relate the convergence of the sequence \(\{ C_{\psi _n,\varphi _n}\}\) in different operator topologies to the convergence of the two sequences of maps \(\{\varphi _n \}\) and \(\{ \psi _n\}\).     

Calderón–Zygmund Type Singular Operators in Weighted Generalized Morrey Spaces

We find conditions for the weighted boundedness of a general class of multidimensional singular integral operators in generalized Morrey spaces \(\mathcal {L}^{p,\varphi }(\mathbb {R}^n,w),\) defined by a function \(\varphi (x,r)\) and radial type weight \(w(|x-x_0|), x_0\in {\mathbb {R}}^{n}.\) These conditions are given in terms of inclusion into \(\mathcal {L}^{p,\varphi }(\mathbb {R}^n,w),\) of a certain integral constructions defined by \(\varphi \) and w. In the case of \(\varphi =\varphi (r)\) we also provide easy to check sufficient conditions for that in terms of indices of \(\varphi \) and w.     

$${\varvec{}}$$-Jorda homomorphisms ad pseudo $${\varvec{}}$$-Jorda homomorphisms o Baach algebras

Let \(n\in \mathbb {N}\), A and B be Banach algebras and let B be a right A-module. We say that a linear mapping \(\varphi :A\longrightarrow B\) is a pseudo n-Jordan homomorphism if there exists an element \(w\in A\) such that \(\varphi (a^nw)=\varphi (a)^n\cdot w\), for every \(a\in A\) and \(n\ge \) 2. In this paper, among other things, we show that under some conditions if a linear mapping \(\varphi \) is a (pseudo) n-Jordan homomorphism, then it is a (pseudo) \((n + 1)\)-Jordan homomorphism. Additionally, we investigate automatic continuity of surjective pseudo n-Jordan homomorphisms under some conditions.     

Vector-Valued Kernels of Bergman Type

Bergman reproducing integral formulas can be obtained for holomorphic mappings \(f{:}\,{\mathbb {B}}\rightarrow {\mathbb {C}}^n,\,{\mathbb {B}}\) the open unit ball of \({\mathbb {C}}^n\), by applying the well-known formulas for scalar-valued functions on \({\mathbb {B}}\) to each coordinate function of f, provided those coordinate functions each lie in an appropriate Bergman space. Here, we consider an alternative formulation whereby f is reproduced as the integral of the product of a fixed vector-valued kernel and the scalar expression \(\langle f(z),z \rangle ,\,z\in {\mathbb {B}}\), where \(\langle \cdot ,\cdot \rangle \) is the Hermitian inner product in \({\mathbb {C}}^n\). We provide two different classes of vector-valued kernels that reproduce holomorphic mappings lying in spaces properly containing the weighted vector-valued Bergman spaces. An analysis of these larger spaces is given. The first set of kernels arises naturally from the scalar-valued Bergman kernels, while the second yields the orthogonal projection onto an isomorphic space of scalar-valued functions in the unweighted case.     

Homomorphism reductions on Polish groups

In an earlier paper, we introduced the following pre-order on the subgroups of a given Polish group: if G is a Polish group and \(H,L \subseteq G\) are subgroups, we say H is homomorphism reducible to L iff there is a continuous group homomorphism \(\varphi : G \rightarrow G\) such that \(H = \varphi ^{-1} (L)\). We previously showed that there is a \(K_\sigma \) subgroup L of the countable power of any locally compact Polish group G such that every \(K_\sigma \) subgroup of \(G^\omega \) is homomorphism reducible to L. In the present work, we show that this fails in the countable power of the group of increasing homeomorphisms of the unit interval.     

Libera and Hilbert matrix operator on logarithmically weighted Bergman,Bloch and Hardy-Bloch spaces

We show that if α > 1, then the logarithmically weighted Bergman space \(A_{{{\log }^\alpha }}^2\) is mapped by the Libera operator L into the space \(A_{{{\log }^{\alpha - 1}}}^2\), while if α > 2 and 0 < ε ≤ α?2, then the Hilbert matrix operator H maps \(A_{{{\log }^\alpha }}^2\) into \(A_{{{\log }^{\alpha - 2 - \varepsilon }}}^2\).We show that the Libera operator L maps the logarithmically weighted Bloch space \({B_{{{\log }^\alpha }}}\), α ∈ R, into itself, while H maps \({B_{{{\log }^\alpha }}}\) into \({B_{{{\log }^{\alpha + 1}}}}\).In Pavlovi?’s paper (2016) it is shown that L maps the logarithmically weighted Hardy-Bloch space \(B_{{{\log }^\alpha }}^1\), α > 0, into \(B_{{{\log }^{\alpha - 1}}}^1\). We show that this result is sharp. We also show that H maps \(B_{{{\log }^\alpha }}^1\), α > 0, into \(B_{{{\log }^{\alpha - 1}}}^1\) and that this result is sharp also.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-Frequent hypercyclicity in spaces of operators

We provide conditions for a linear map of the form \(C_{R,T}(S)=RST\) to be q-frequently hypercyclic on algebras of operators on separable Banach spaces. In particular, if R is a bounded operator satisfying the q-frequent hypercyclicity criterion, then the map \(C_{R}(S)=RSR^*\) is shown to be q-frequently hypercyclic on the space \(\mathcal {K}(H)\) of all compact operators and the real topological vector space \(\mathcal {S}(H)\) of all self-adjoint operators on a separable Hilbert space H. Further we provide a condition for \(C_{R,T}\) to be q-frequently hypercyclic on the Schatten von Neumann classes \(S_p(H)\). We also characterize frequent hypercyclicity of \(C_{M^*_\varphi ,M_\psi }\) on the trace-class of the Hardy space, where the symbol \(M_\varphi \) denotes the multiplication operator associated to \(\varphi \).     

The non-abelian tensor square of residually finite groups

Let m, n be positive integers and p a prime. We denote by \(\nu (G)\) an extension of the non-abelian tensor square \(G \otimes G\) by \(G \times G\). We prove that if G is a residually finite group satisfying some non-trivial identity \(f \equiv ~1\) and for every \(x,y \in G\) there exists a p-power \(q=q(x,y)\) such that \([x,y^{\varphi }]^q = 1\), then the derived subgroup \(\nu (G)'\) is locally finite (Theorem A). Moreover, we show that if G is a residually finite group in which for every \(x,y \in G\) there exists a p-power \(q=q(x,y)\) dividing \(p^m\) such that \([x,y^{\varphi }]^q\) is left n-Engel, then the non-abelian tensor square \(G \otimes G\) is locally virtually nilpotent (Theorem B).     

Real-variable characterizations of anisotropic product Musielak-Orlicz Hardy spaces

Let A :=(A_1, A_2) be a pair of expansive dilations and φ : R~n×R~m×[0, ∞) → [0, ∞) an anisotropic product Musielak-Orlicz function. In this article, we introduce the anisotropic product Musielak-Orlicz Hardy space H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) via the anisotropic Lusin-area function and establish its atomic characterization, the g-function characterization, the g_λ~*-function characterization and the discrete wavelet characterization via first giving out an anisotropic product Peetre inequality of Musielak-Orlicz type. Moreover, we prove that finite atomic decomposition norm on a dense subspace of H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) is equivalent to the standard infinite atomic decomposition norm. As an application, we show that, for a given admissible triplet(φ, q, s), if T is a sublinear operator and maps all(φ, q, s)-atoms into uniformly bounded elements of some quasi-Banach spaces B, then T uniquely extends to a bounded sublinear operator from H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) to B. Another application is that we obtain the boundedness of anisotropic product singular integral operators from H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) to L~φ(R~n× R~m)and from H~φ_A(R~n×R~m) to itself, whose kernels are adapted to the action of A. The results of this article essentially extend the existing results for weighted product Hardy spaces on R~n× R~m and are new even for classical product Orlicz-Hardy spaces.     

Unitary Equivalence of Composition C$$^*$$-Algebras on the Hardy and Weighted Bergman Spaces

Let \(\varphi \) be an arbitrary linear-fractional self-map of the unit disk \({\mathbb {D}}\) and consider the composition operator \(C_{-1, \varphi }\) and the Toeplitz operator \(T_{-1,z}\) on the Hardy space \(H^2\) and the corresponding operators \(C_{\alpha , \varphi }\) and \(T_{\alpha , z}\) on the weighted Bergman spaces \(A^2_{\alpha }\) for \(\alpha >-1\). We prove that the unital C\(^*\)-algebra \(C^*(T_{\alpha , z}, C_{\alpha , \varphi })\) generated by \(T_{\alpha , z}\) and \(C_{\alpha , \varphi }\) is unitarily equivalent to \(C^*(T_{-1, z}, C_{-1, \varphi }),\) which extends a known result for automorphism-induced composition operators. For maps \(\varphi \) that are not automorphisms of \({\mathbb {D}}\), we show that \(C^*(C_{\alpha , \varphi }, {\mathcal {K}}_{\alpha })\) is unitarily equivalent to \(C^*(C_{-1, \varphi }, {\mathcal {K}}_{-1})\), where \({\mathcal {K}}_{\alpha }\) and \({\mathcal {K}}_{-1}\) denote the ideals of compact operators on \(A^2_{\alpha }\) and \(H^2\), respectively, and apply existing structure theorems for \(C^*(C_{-1, \varphi }, {\mathcal {K}}_{-1})/{\mathcal {K}}_{-1}\) to describe the structure of \(C^*(C_{\alpha , \varphi }, {\mathcal {K}}_{\alpha })/\mathcal {K_{\alpha }}\), up to isomorphism. We also establish a unitary equivalence between related weighted composition operators induced by maps \(\varphi \) that fix a point on the unit circle.     

Joint universality for Dirichlet L-functions and zeros of their linear combinations in the $$\chi $$-aspect

We establish a joint universality theorem for Dirichlet L-functions in the character aspect. This is an extension of a result obtained by Bagchi and Gonek independently, and is an analogue of the joint universality for Dirichlet L-functions in the t-aspect. Zeros of linear combinations of Dirichlet L-functions in the t-aspect have been investigated by various authors. Using our joint universality theorem, we investigate zeros of such combinations from a new viewpoint. More precisely, we show that for any region \(\Omega \) in the strip \(1/2< \mathrm {Re}\,s <1\), any non-zero meromorphic functions \(H_1 (s), \dots , H_r(s)\) on \(\Omega \) with \(r \ge 2\) and any positive integer N, there exist a positive integer m and Dirichlet characters \(\varphi _1, \dots , \varphi _r \bmod m\) such that \(\sum _{j=1}^r H_j (s) L(s, \varphi _r)\) has at least N distinct zeros in \(\Omega \).     

Sampling and Cubature on Sparse Grids Based on a B-spline Quasi-Interpolation

Let \(X_n = \{x^j\}_{j=1}^n\) be a set of n points in the d-cube \({\mathbb {I}}^d:=[0,1]^d\), and \(\Phi _n = \{\varphi _j\}_{j =1}^n\) a family of n functions on \({\mathbb {I}}^d\). We consider the approximate recovery of functions f on \({{\mathbb {I}}}^d\) from the sampled values \(f(x^1), \ldots , f(x^n)\), by the linear sampling algorithm \( L_n(X_n,\Phi _n,f) := \sum _{j=1}^n f(x^j)\varphi _j. \) The error of sampling recovery is measured in the norm of the space \(L_q({\mathbb {I}}^d)\)-norm or the energy quasi-norm of the isotropic Sobolev space \(W^\gamma _q({\mathbb {I}}^d)\) for \(1 < q < \infty \) and \(\gamma > 0\). Functions f to be recovered are from the unit ball in Besov-type spaces of an anisotropic smoothness, in particular, spaces \(B^{\alpha ,\beta }_{p,\theta }\) of a “hybrid” of mixed smoothness \(\alpha > 0\) and isotropic smoothness \(\beta \in {\mathbb {R}}\), and spaces \(B^a_{p,\theta }\) of a nonuniform mixed smoothness \(a \in {\mathbb {R}}^d_+\). We constructed asymptotically optimal linear sampling algorithms \(L_n(X_n^*,\Phi _n^*,\cdot )\) on special sparse grids \(X_n^*\) and a family \(\Phi _n^*\) of linear combinations of integer or half integer translated dilations of tensor products of B-splines. We computed the asymptotic order of the error of the optimal recovery. This construction is based on B-spline quasi-interpolation representations of functions in \(B^{\alpha ,\beta }_{p,\theta }\) and \(B^a_{p,\theta }\). As consequences, we obtained the asymptotic order of optimal cubature formulas for numerical integration of functions from the unit ball of these Besov-type spaces.     

Galois groups of some iterated polynomials over cyclotomic extensions

Let \(\varphi _p(z)=(z-1)^p+2-\zeta _p\), where \(\zeta _p\in \bar{\mathbb {Q}}\) is a primitive pth root of unity. Building on previous work, we show that the nth iterate \(\varphi _p^n(z)\) has Galois group \([C_p]^n\), an iterated wreath product of cyclic groups, whenever p is not a Wieferich prime.     

Coloring Complete and Complete Bipartite Graphs from Random Lists

Assign to each vertex v of the complete graph \(K_n\) on n vertices a list L(v) of colors by choosing each list independently and uniformly at random from all f(n)-subsets of a color set \([n] = \{1,\dots , n\}\), where f(n) is some integer-valued function of n. Such a list assignment L is called a random (f(n), [n])-list assignment. In this paper, we determine the asymptotic probability (as \(n \rightarrow \infty \)) of the existence of a proper coloring \(\varphi \) of \(K_n\), such that \(\varphi (v) \in L(v)\) for every vertex v of \(K_n\). We show that this property exhibits a sharp threshold at \(f(n) = \log n\). Additionally, we consider the corresponding problem for the line graph of a complete bipartite graph \(K_{m,n}\) with parts of size m and n, respectively. We show that if \(m = o(\sqrt{n})\), \(f(n) \ge 2 \log n\), and L is a random (f(n), [n])-list assignment for the line graph of \(K_{m,n}\), then with probability tending to 1, as \(n \rightarrow \infty \), there is a proper coloring of the line graph of \(K_{m,n}\) with colors from the lists.     

On the Multiplication Tuples Related to Certain Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces

We consider a class of subnormal operator tuples \(M_z\) consisting of multiplications by coordinate functions on a class of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces associated with certain bounded domains \(\Omega \) in \({\mathbb {C}}^m\), with the closure \({{\bar{\Omega }}}\) of \(\Omega \) being the Taylor spectrum of \(M_z\) and the topological boundary \(\partial \Omega \) of \(\Omega \) being the Taylor essential spectrum of \(M_z\). If T is a subnormal operator tuple quasisimilar to \(M_z\), then we show that the Taylor spectrum of T is \({{\bar{\Omega }}}\) provided \({{\bar{\Omega }}}\) is polynomially convex and provided \(\Omega \) is either strictly pseudoconvex with \(C^2\) boundary or is starlike, and that the Taylor essential spectrum of T is \(\partial \Omega \) provided \(\Omega \) satisfies the Gleason property as well. This generalizes some previous work of the first-named author in the context of the unit ball and the unit polydisk. The relevant theory is then applied to the multiplication tuples on the Hardy and Bergman spaces of complex ellipsoids.     

Character Connes-amenability of dual Banach algebras

The concept of left character Connes-amenability for a dual Banach algebra \({\mathcal {A}}\) is introduced. We obtain a cohomological characterization of left character Connes-amenability as well as the relation between left \(\varphi \)-Connes-amenability and existence of left \(\varphi \)-normal virtual diagonals for a \(\omega ^{*}\)-continuous character \(\varphi \). We prove that left character amenability of \({\mathcal {A}}\) is equivalent to left character Connes-amenability of \({\mathcal {A}}^{**}\) when \({\mathcal {A}}\) is Arens regular. Moreover for a locally compact group G, we show that M(G) is left character Connes-amenable. In addition by means of some examples we show that for the new notion, the corresponding class of dual Banach algebras is larger than Connes-amenable dual Banach algebras.     

Asymptotic Expansion of the Bergman Kernel via Perturbation of the Bargmann–Fock Model

We give an alternate proof of the existence of the asymptotic expansion of the Bergman kernel associated with the kth tensor powers of a positive line bundle L in a \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}\)-neighborhood of the diagonal using elementary methods. We use the observation that after rescaling the Kähler potential \(k\varphi \) in a \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{k}}\)-neighborhood of a given point, the potential becomes an asymptotic perturbation of the Bargmann–Fock metric. We then prove that the Bergman kernel is also an asymptotic perturbation of the Bargmann–Fock Bergman kernel.     

Differential and Falsified Sampling Expansions

Differential and falsified sampling expansions \(\sum _{k\in {\mathbb {Z}}^d}c_k\varphi (M^jx+k)\), where M is a matrix dilation, are studied. In the case of differential expansions, \(c_k=Lf(M^{-j}\cdot )(-k)\), where L is an appropriate differential operator. For a large class of functions \(\varphi \), the approximation order of differential expansions was recently studied. Some smoothness of the Fourier transform of \(\varphi \) from this class is required. In the present paper, we obtain similar results for a class of band-limited functions \(\varphi \) with the discontinuous Fourier transform. In the case of falsified expansions, \(c_k\) is the mathematical expectation of random integral average of a signal f near the point \(M^{-j}k\). To estimate the approximation order of the falsified sampling expansions we compare them with the differential expansions. Error estimations in \(L_p\)-norm are given in terms of the Fourier transform of f.
