Construction of nonseparable dual -wavelet frames in

Suppose and are two pairs of dual M-wavelet frames and N-wavelet frames in and , respectively, where M and N are s₁×s₁ and s₂×s₂ dilation matrices with a₁(|det(M)|-1) and (2a₂+1)(|det(N)|-1). Moreover, their mask symbols both satisfy mixed extension principle (MEP). Based on the mask symbols, a family of nonseparable dual Ω-wavelet frames in are constructed, where s=s₁+s₂, and with Θ and M^-1Θ both being integer matrices. Then a convolution scheme for improving regularity of wavelet frames is given. From the nonseparable dual Ω-wavelet frames, nonseparable Ω-wavelet frames with high regularity can be constructed easily. We give an algorithm for constructing nonseparable dual symmetric or antisymmetric wavelet frames in . From the dual Ω-wavelet frames, nonseparable dual Ω-wavelet frames with symmetry can be obtained easily. In the end, two examples are given.

Ore-type and Dirac-type theorems for matroids

Let M be a connected binary matroid having no -minor. Let be a collection of cocircuits of M. We prove there is a circuit intersecting all cocircuits of if either one of two things hold:

(i) For any two disjoint cocircuits and in it holds that .

(ii) For any two disjoint cocircuits and in it holds that .

Part (ii) implies Ore's Theorem, a well-known theorem giving sufficient conditions for the existence of a hamilton cycle in a graph. As an application of part (i), it is shown that if M is a k-connected regular matroid and has cocircumference c^*2k, then there is a circuit which intersects each cocircuit of size c^*−k+2 or greater.We also extend a theorem of Dirac for graphs by showing that for any k-connected binary matroid M having no -minor, it holds that for any k cocircuits of M there is a circuit which intersects them.     

Positive solutions of singular p-Laplacian dynamic equations with sign changing nonlinearity

Let be a time scale such that . By the Schauder fixed-point theorem and the upper and lower solution method, we present some existence criteria of the positive solution of m-point singular p-Laplacian dynamic equation with boundary conditions , where φ_p(s)=|s|^p-2s with p>1, is continuous for i=1,2,…,m-1 and nonincreasing if . The nonlinear term may be singular in its dependent variable and is allowed to change sign. Our results are new even for the corresponding differential and difference equations . As an application, an example is given to illustrate our result.     

Lattices generated by orbits of subspaces under finite singular pseudo-symplectic groups I

Norms of some operators on the Bergman and the Hardy space in the unit polydisk and the unit ball

Let H(X) be the class of all holomorphic functions on the set and uH(X). We calculate operator norms of the multiplication operators M_u(f)=uf, on the weighted Bergman space , as well as on the Hardy space H^p(X), where X is the unit polydisk or the unit ball in . We also calculate the norm of the weighted composition operator from the weighted Bergman space , and the Hardy space , to a weighted-type space on the unit polydisk.     

-structure on the deformation complex of a morphism

-structure is shown to exist on the deformation complex of a morphism of associative algebras. The main step of the construction is the extension of a -algebra by an associative algebra. Actions of -algebras on associative and -algebras are analyzed; extensions of -algebras by associative and -algebras that they act upon are constructed. The resulting -algebra on the deformation complex of a morphism is shown to be quasi-isomorphic to the -algebra on the deformation complex of the corresponding diagram algebra.     

Generalized rough approximations in

In this paper we will treat a generalization of inner and outer approximations of fuzzy sets, which we will call -inner and -outer approximations respectively ( being any finite set of rational numbers in [0,1]). In particular we will discuss the case of those fuzzy sets which are definable in the logic by means of step functions from the hypercube [0,1]^k and taking value in an arbitrary (finite) subset of . Then, we will show that if a fuzzy set is definable as truth table of a formula of , then both its -inner and -outer approximation are definable as truth table of formulas of . Finally, we will introduce a generalization of abstract approximation spaces and compare our approach with the notion of fuzzy rough set.     

On the sizes of Delaunay meshes

Let be a polyhedral domain occupying a convex volume. We prove that the size of a graded mesh of with bounded vertex degree is within a factor of the size of any Delaunay mesh of with bounded radius-edge ratio. The term depends on the geometry of and it is likely a small constant when the boundaries of are fine triangular meshes. There are several consequences. First, among all Delaunay meshes with bounded radius-edge ratio, those returned by Delaunay refinement algorithms have asymptotically optimal sizes. This is another advantage of meshing with Delaunay refinement algorithms. Second, if no input angle is acute, the minimum Delaunay mesh with bounded radius-edge ratio is not much smaller than any minimum mesh with aspect ratio bounded by a particular constant.

Sequential definitions of compactness

A subset F of a topological space is sequentially compact if any sequence of points in F has a convergent subsequence whose limit is in F. We say that a subset F of a topological group X is G-sequentially compact if any sequence of points in F has a convergent subsequence such that where G is an additive function from a subgroup of the group of all sequences of points in X. We investigate the impact of changing the definition of convergence of sequences on the structure of sequentially compactness of sets in the sense of G-sequential compactness. Sequential compactness is a special case of this generalization when G=lim.     

Approximation of Sobolev classes by polynomials and ridge functions

Let be the usual Sobolev class of functions on the unit ball in , and be the subclass of all radial functions in . We show that for the classes and , the orders of best approximation by polynomials in coincide. We also obtain exact orders of best approximation in of the classes by ridge functions and, as an immediate consequence, we obtain the same orders in for the usual Sobolev classes .     

Semifields of order with left nucleus and center

In [G. Marino, O. Polverino, R. Trombetti, On -linear sets of PG(3,q³) and semifields, J. Combin. Theory Ser. A 114 (5) (2007) 769–788] it has been proven that there exist six non-isotopic families (i=0,…,5) of semifields of order q⁶ with left nucleus and center , according to the different geometric configurations of the associated -linear sets. In this paper we first prove that any semifield of order q⁶ with left nucleus , right and middle nuclei and center is isotopic to a cyclic semifield. Then, we focus on the family by proving that it can be partitioned into three further non-isotopic families: , , and we show that any semifield of order q⁶ with left nucleus , right and middle nuclei and center belongs to the family .

If is large, its free completion under colimits is the -category of small presheaves on , where a presheaf is small if it is a left Kan extension of some presheaf with small domain. We study the existence of limits and of monoidal closed structures on .
