Selective Limit Theorems for Random Walks on Parabolic Biangle and Triangle Hypergroups

Let K be respectively the parabolic biangle and the triangle in and be a sequence in [0, +[ such that lim_p (p)=+. According to Koornwinder and Schwartz,⁽⁷⁾ for each there exist a convolution structure (*_(p)) such that (K, *_(p)) is a commutative hypergroup. Consider now a random walk on (K, *_(p)), assume that this random walk is stopped after j(p) steps. Then under certain conditions given below we prove that the random variables on K admit a selective limit theorems. The proofs depend on limit relations between the characters of these hypergroups and Laguerre polynomials that we give in this work.     

Smoothness of Brownian local times and related functionals

In this paper we show that the local time of the Brownian motion belongs to the Sobolev space for any p2 and 0<<1/p. In order to prove this result we first discuss the smoothness and integrability properties of the composition of the Dirac function with a Wiener integral W(h), and we show that this composition belongs to , for any >0 and p>1 such that +1/p>1.     

Proper holomorphic mappings between generalized pseudoellipsoids

Summary We characterize the existence of proper holomorphic mappings between pseudoellipsoids of the form . If f:()() is any such mapping, the existence of a subgroup of Aut (()) such that is shown equivalent to a condition on the branch locus of f.

We consider a family A of differential operators in L ²(²) depending on a parameter 0. The operator A formally corresponds to the quadratic form

On the Boundedness of a Recurrence Sequence in a Banach Space

We investigate the problem of the boundedness of the following recurrence sequence in a Banach space B: where |y _n} and | _n } are sequences bounded in B, and A _k, k 1, are linear bounded operators. We prove that if, for any > 0, the condition is satisfied, then the sequence |x _n} is bounded for arbitrary bounded sequences |y _n} and | _n } if and only if the operator has the continuous inverse for every z C, |z| 1.     

Lower bounds for heights on finitely generated groups

LetG be a finitely generated subgroup of rankr of the multiplicative groupK ^* of a number field. We construct a basis ₁,..., _r ofG such that for G, writing where is a root of unity and where thex _i are integers, we get a lower bound for the absolute heighth() in terms ofr and max .

On exponents in arithmetical semigroups

Let be the factoring of a natural numbern into primes. In 1969Niven found the average order of the functionsh(n)= min {₁,... _r } andH(n)= max {₁,... _r }. In this note a generalization ofNiven's results is discussed, namely the average order of the corresponding functions in certain arithmetical semigroups.     

Convergence of series of translations

For a mean zero norm one sequence (f _n )L ₂[0, 1], the sequence (f _n {nx+y}) is an orthonormal sequence inL ₂([0, 1]²); so if , then converges for a.e. (x, y)[0, 1]² and has a maximal function inL ₂([0, 1]²). But for a mean zerofL ₂[0, 1], it is harder to give necessary and sufficient conditions for theL ₂-norm convergence or a.e. convergence of . Ifc _n 0 and , then this series will not converge inL ₂-norm on a denseG subset of the mean zero functions inL ₂[0, 1]. Also, there are mean zerofL[0, 1] such that never converges and there is a mean zero continuous functionf with a.e. However, iff is mean zero and of bounded variation or in some Lip() with 1/2<1, and if |c _n | = 0(n ^–) for >1/2, then converges a.e. and unconditionally inL ₂[0, 1]. In addition, for any mean zerof of bounded variation, the series has its maximal function in allL _p[0, 1] with 1p<. Finally, if (f _n )L [0, 1] is a uniformly bounded mean zero sequence, then is a necessary and sufficient condition for to converge for a.e.y and a.e. (x _n )[0, 1]. Moreover, iffL [0, 1] is mean zero and , then for a.e. (x _n )[0, 1], converges for a.e.y and in allL _p [0, 1] with 1p<. Some of these theorems can be generalized simply to other compact groups besides [0, 1] under addition modulo one.

An -universally extending ordered field of power is constructed for each regular power where 0 < On and . When is inaccessible, the structure is either a (set) model of J. H. Conway's ordered field No or an isomorphic copy of No depending on whether or not is a set or a proper class.Presented by Jan Mycielski.     

Nilpotent shifts on manifolds

On the lattice of manifolds of all algebras L we study the operator of nilpotent closure , where is a nilpotent manifold of -algebras. With a given system of identities defining, we construct a system ^*, giving the manifold It is proved that if does not contain , then the lattice of submanifolds of is the double of the lattice of submanifolds of. We describe the free and subdirect indecomposable manifolds of algebras . Let and A be adense retract of B. We denote by (B) the lattice of congruences on B. The theorem is proved: (B) is a complemented lattice if and only if (A) is a complemented lattice.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 14, No. 5, pp. 703–712, November, 1973.     

A Necessary and Sufficient Condition for the Existence of Some Ternary [n, k, d] Codes Meeting the Greismer Bound

Let k and d be any integers such that k 4 and . Then there exist two integers and in {0,1,2} such that . The purpose of this paper is to prove that (1) in the case k 5 and (,) = (0,1), there exists a ternary code meeting the Griesmer bound if and only if and (2) in the case k 4 and (,) = (0,2) or (1,1), there is no ternary code meeting the Griesmer bound for any integers k and d and (3) in the case k 5 and , there is no projective ternary code for any integers k and such that 1k-3, where and for any integer i 0. In the special case k=6, it follows from (1) that there is no ternary linear code with parameters [233,6,154] , [234,6,155] or [237,6,157] which are new results.     

A necessary condition for convergence of interpolating parabolic and cubic splines

Let the sequence of nets _n be such that , where h_i ⁽ⁿ⁾ are the lengths of the segments of a net. The bound is necessary in order that interpolating parabolic and cubic splines converge for any function in C ( = 0) or C(0 < < 1), where C is the class of functions satisfying a Lipschitz condition of order. It is also shown that this bound cannot essentially be weakened.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 19, No. 2, pp. 165–178, February, 1976.The author thanks Yu. N.

Sets with a Prescribed Number of Power Invariants

Let A₁,...,A_n be points in , let be a fixed point, let p be a positive integer, and let ₁,...,_n be positive real numbers. If the does not depend on the position of M on a sphere with center O, then one says that the point system {A₁,...,A_n} has an invariant of degree p with weight system {,...,_n}. It is proved that for arbitrary positive integers d and N there exists a finite point system having invariants of degrees p=1,...,N with common positive weight system {₁,...,_n}.

Towards a model theory for 2-hyponormal operators

We introduce the notion ofweak subnormality, which generalizes subnormality in the sense that for the extension ofT we only require that hold forf ; in this case we call a partially normal extension ofT. After establishing some basic results about weak subnormality (including those dealing with the notion of minimal partially normal extension), we proceed to characterize weak subnormality for weighted shifts and to prove that 2-hyponormal weighted shifts are weakly subnormal. Let { _n } _n=0 be a weight sequence and letW denote the associated unilateral weighted shift on . IfW is 2-hyponormal thenW is weakly subnormal. Moreover, there exists a partially normal extension on such that (i) is hyponormal; (ii) ; and (iii) . In particular, if is strictly increasing then can be obtained as

Décroissance rapide de la distribution fλ

Let X be an open subset of ⁿ and (f₁, ...,f_p): X ^p be a holomorphic mapping. We prove that if (x⁰,0, ⁰) T^* × ^p does not belong to the characteristic variety of the _X []-module _X[]f, then there exists a conic neighborhood V × of (x⁰, ⁰) such the function is rapidely decreasing in | Im | for with Re bounded, for any (n,n)-form of class C with compact support in V. The following partial converse of this result is also established: if for all (n,n)-forms of class C with compact support in X, then .
