Linear Volterra equations and integrated solution families

We consider the linear Volterra equation $${\text{(VE;}}A{\text{,}}a{\text{)}}u{\text{(}}t{\text{) = }}x {\text{ + }}\int_{\text{0}}^{\text{t}} { a{\text{(}}t{\text{ - }}s{\text{)}}Au{\text{(}}s{\text{)}}ds {\text{for }}t \geqslant {\text{0}}{\text{.}}} $$ HereA is an unbounded closed linear operator in a Banach spaceX anda is a scalar valued function. We study the theory of solution families which are not necessarily exponentially bounded and also, as their generalizations, consider the notion ofn-times integrated solution families for (VE;A, a). These families are characterized in terms of the associated Volterra integral equation $${\text{(VE;}}A{\text{,}}a{\text{)}}_n u{\text{(}}t{\text{) = }}\frac{{t^n }}{{n!}}x {\text{ + }}A{\text{ }}\int_{\text{0}}^{\text{t}} { a{\text{(}}t{\text{ - }}s{\text{)}}u{\text{(}}s{\text{)}}ds {\text{for }}t \geqslant {\text{0}}{\text{.}}} $$ The results are applied to additive and multiplicative perturbation theorems and adjoint problems.

$${\varvec{\mathcal {}}}$$-minimaxness and local cohomology modules

Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring, \({\mathfrak {a}}\) an ideal of R, M a finitely generated R-module, and \({\mathcal {S}}\) a Serre subcategory of the category of R-modules. We introduce the concept of \({\mathcal {S}}\)-minimax R-modules and the notion of the \({\mathcal {S}}\)-finiteness dimension

$$\begin{aligned} f_{\mathfrak {a}}^{{\mathcal {S}}}(M):=\inf \lbrace f_{\mathfrak {a}R_{\mathfrak {p}}}(M_{\mathfrak {p}}) \vert \mathfrak {p}\in {\text {Supp}}_R(M/ \mathfrak {a}M) \text { and } R/\mathfrak {p}\notin {\mathcal {S}} \rbrace \end{aligned}$$

and we will prove that: (i) If \({\text {H}}_{\mathfrak {a}}^{0}(M), \cdots ,{\text {H}}_{\mathfrak {a}}^{n-1}(M)\) are \({\mathcal {S}}\)-minimax, then the set \(\lbrace \mathfrak {p}\in {\text {Ass}}_R( {\text {H}}_{\mathfrak {a}}^{n}(M)) \vert R/\mathfrak {p}\notin {\mathcal {S}}\rbrace \) is finite. This generalizes the main results of Brodmann–Lashgari (Proc Am Math Soc 128(10):2851–2853, 2000), Quy (Proc Am Math Soc 138:1965–1968, 2010), Bahmanpour–Naghipour (Proc Math Soc 136:2359–2363, 2008), Asadollahi–Naghipour (Commun Algebra 43:953–958, 2015), and Mehrvarz et al. (Commun Algebra 43:4860–4872, 2015). (ii) If \({\mathcal {S}}\) satisfies the condition \(C_{\mathfrak {a}}\), then

$$\begin{aligned} f_{\mathfrak {a}}^{{\mathcal {S}}}(M)= \inf \lbrace i\in {\mathbb {N}}_{0} \vert {\text {H}}_{\mathfrak {a}}^{i}(M) \text { is not } {\mathcal {S}}\hbox {-}minimax\rbrace . \end{aligned}$$

This is a formulation of Faltings’ Local-global principle for the \({\mathcal {S}}\)-minimax local cohomology modules. (iii) \( \sup \lbrace i\in {\mathbb {N}}_{0} \vert {\text {H}}_{\mathfrak {a}}^{i}(M) \text { is not } {\mathcal {S}}\text {-minimax} \rbrace = \sup \lbrace i\in {\mathbb {N}}_{0} \vert {\text {H}}_{\mathfrak {a}}^{i}(M) \text { is not in } {\mathcal {S}} \rbrace \).

     

Skew representations of twisted Yangians

Analogs of the classical Sylvester theorem have been known for matrices with entries in noncommutative algebras including the quantized algebra of functions on GL_N and the Yangian for $$ \mathfrak{g}\mathfrak{l}_{{N}} $$ . We prove a version of this theorem for the twisted Yangians $$ {\text{Y(}}\mathfrak{g}_{N} {\text{)}} $$associated with the orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras $$ \mathfrak{g}_{N} = \mathfrak{o}_{N} {\text{ or }}\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{p}_{N} $$. This gives rise to representations of the twisted Yangian $$ {\text{Y}}{\left( {\mathfrak{g}_{{N - M}} } \right)} $$ on the space of homomorphisms $$ {\text{Hom}}_{{\mathfrak{g}_{M} }} {\left( {W,V} \right)} $$, where W and V are finite-dimensional irreducible modules over $$ \mathfrak{g}_{{M}} {\text{ and }}\mathfrak{g}_{{N}} $$, respectively. In the symplectic case these representations turn out to be irreducible and we identify them by calculating the corresponding Drinfeld polynomials.We also apply the quantum Sylvester theorem to realize the twisted Yangian as a projective limit of certain centralizers in universal enveloping algebras.

$${\mathcal{C}}_{0}$$ ( X)-algebras,stability and strongly self-absorbing $${\mathcal{C}}^{*}$$ -algebras

We study permanence properties of the classes of stable and so-called -stable -algebras, respectively. More precisely, we show that a (X)-algebra A is stable if all its fibres are, provided that the underlying compact metrizable space X has finite covering dimension or that the Cuntz semigroup of A is almost unperforated (a condition which is automatically satisfied for -algebras absorbing the Jiang–Su algebra tensorially). Furthermore, we prove that if is a K ₁-injective strongly self-absorbing -algebra, then A absorbs tensorially if and only if all its fibres do, again provided that X is finite-dimensional. This latter statement generalizes results of Blanchard and Kirchberg. We also show that the condition on the dimension of X cannot be dropped. Along the way, we obtain a useful characterization of when a -algebra with weakly unperforated Cuntz semigroup is stable, which allows us to show that stability passes to extensions of -absorbing -algebras.

Indefinite Stein fillings and $$\text {PIN}(2)$$PIN(2)-monopole Floer homology

Let $$W(z_1, \ldots , z_n): ({\mathbb {C}}^*)^n \rightarrow {\mathbb {C}}$$ be a Laurent polynomial in n variables, and let $${\mathcal {H}}$$ be a generic smooth fiber of W. Ruddat et al. (Geom Topol 18:1343–1395, 2014) give a combinatorial recipe for a skeleton for $${\mathcal {H}}$$. In this paper, we show that for a suitable exact symplectic structure on $${\mathcal {H}}$$, the RSTZ-skeleton can be realized as the Liouville Lagrangian skeleton.     

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 .

$${\mathcal{M}}$$ -decomposability and symmetric unimodal densities in one dimension

In this paper, we introduce the notion of -decomposability of probability density functions in one dimension. Using -decomposability, we derive an inequality that applies to all symmetric unimodal densities. Our inequality involves only the standard deviation of the densities concerned. The concept of -decomposability can be used as a non-parametric criterion for mode-finding and cluster analysis.     

Codes defined by forms of degree 2 on non-degenerate Hermitian varieties in $${\mathbb{P}^{4}(\mathbb{F}_q)}$$

We study the functional codes of second order on a non-degenerate Hermitian variety as defined by G. Lachaud. We provide the best possible bounds for the number of points of quadratic sections of . We list the first five weights, describe the corresponding codewords and compute their number. The paper ends with two conjectures. The first is about minimum distance of the functional codes of order h on a non-singular Hermitian variety . The second is about distribution of the codewords of first five weights of the functional codes of second order on a non-singular Hermitian variety .      

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.     

Pointwise estimates for relative fundamental solutions of heat equations in $${\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{C}}$$

Let be a subharmonic, nonharmonic polynomial and a parameter. Define , a closed, densely defined operator on . If and , we solve the heat equations , u(0,z) = f(z) and , . We write the solutions via heat semigroups and show that the solutions can be written as integrals against distributional kernels. We prove that the kernels are C ^∞ off of the diagonal {(s, z, w) : s = 0 and z = w} and find pointwise bounds for the kernels and their derivatives.
