Segal-Bargmann transforms of one-mode interacting Fock spaces associated with Gaussian and Poisson measures

Let and denote the Gaussian and Poisson measures on , respectively. We show that there exists a unique measure on such that under the Segal-Bargmann transform the space is isomorphic to the space of analytic -functions on with respect to . We also introduce the Segal-Bargmann transform for the Poisson measure and prove the corresponding result. As a consequence, when and have the same variance, and are isomorphic to the same space under the - and -transforms, respectively. However, we show that the multiplication operators by on and on act quite differently on .

     

On polynomial products in nilpotent and solvable Lie groups

We are dealing with Lie groups which are diffeomorphic to , for some . After identifying with , the multiplication on can be seen as a map . We show that if is a polynomial map in one of the two (sets of) variables or , then is solvable. Moreover, if one knows that is polynomial in one of the variables, the group is nilpotent if and only if is polynomial in both its variables.

The Banach algebra induced by a double centralizer

Given a Banach algebra , R. Larsen defined, in his book ``An introduction to the theory of multipliers", a Banach algebra by means of a multiplier on , and essentially used it in the case of a commutative semisimple Banach algebra to prove a result on multiplications which preserve regular maximal ideals. Here, we consider the analogue Banach algebra induced by a bounded double centralizer of a Banach algebra . Then, our main concern is devoted to the relationships between , , and the algebras of bounded double centralizers and of and , respectively. By removing the assumption of semisimplicity, we generalize some results proven by Larsen.

     

The Hochschild cohomology ring of a selfinjective algebra of finite representation type

This paper describes the Hochschild cohomology ring of a selfinjective algebra of finite representation type over an algebraically closed field , showing that the quotient of the Hochschild cohomology ring by the ideal generated by all homogeneous nilpotent elements is isomorphic to either or , and is thus finitely generated as an algebra. We also consider more generally the property of a finite dimensional algebra being selfinjective, and as a consequence show that if all simple -modules are -periodic, then is selfinjective.

Criteria for irrationality of Euler's constant

By modifying Beukers' proof of Apéry's theorem that is irrational, we derive criteria for irrationality of Euler's constant, . For 0$">, we define a double integral and a positive integer , and prove that with the following are equivalent:

1. The fractional part of is given by for some .

2. The formula holds for all sufficiently large .

3. Euler's constant is a rational number.

A corollary is that if infinitely often, then is irrational. Indeed, if the inequality holds for a given (we present numerical evidence for and is rational, then its denominator does not divide . We prove a new combinatorial identity in order to show that a certain linear form in logarithms is in fact . A by-product is a rapidly converging asymptotic formula for , used by P. Sebah to compute correct to 18063 decimals.

     

Multi-dimensional versions of a theorem of Fine and Wilf and a formula of Sylvester

Let be vectors in which generate . We show that a body with the vectors as edge vectors is an almost minimal set with the property that every function with periods is constant. For the result reduces to the theorem of Fine and Wilf, which is a refinement of the famous Periodicity Lemma.

Suppose is not a non-trivial linear combination of with non-negative coefficients. Then we describe the sector such that every interior integer point of the sector is a linear combination of over , but infinitely many points on each of its hyperfaces are not. For the result reduces to a formula of Sylvester corresponding to Frobenius' Coin-changing Problem in the case of coins of two denominations.

On embeddings of full amalgamated free product C-algebras

We examine the question of when the -homomorphism of full amalgamated free product C-algebras, arising from compatible inclusions of C-algebras , and , is an embedding. Results giving sufficient conditions for to be injective, as well as classes of examples where fails to be injective, are obtained. As an application, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the full amalgamated free product of finite-dimensional C-algebras to be residually finite dimensional.

     

Farrell sets for harmonic functions

Let denote a relatively closed subset of the unit ball of . The purpose of this paper is to characterize those sets which have the following property: any harmonic function on which satisfies on (where 0$">) can be locally uniformly approximated on by a sequence of harmonic polynomials which satisfy the same inequality on . This answers a question posed by Stray, who had earlier solved the corresponding problem for holomorphic functions on the unit disc.

The globally irreducible representations of symmetric groups

Let be an algebraic number field and be the ring of integers of . Let be a finite group and be a finitely generated torsion free -module. We say that is a globally irreducible -module if, for every maximal ideal of , the -module is irreducible, where stands for the residue field .

Answering a question of Pham Huu Tiep, we prove that the symmetric group does not have non-trivial globally irreducible modules. More precisely we establish that if is a globally irreducible -module, then is an -module of rank with the trivial or sign action of .

We show that a weakly Krull domain satisfies : for every pair there is an such that is -invertible. For Noetherian, satisfies if and only if every grade-one prime ideal of is of height one. We also show that a modification of can be used to characterize Noetherian domains that are one-dimensional.

     

The Whitehead products and powers in -topology

We initiate a study of -topology. This is a modification of ordinary topology in which morphisms exist after smashing with a fixed space . Several classical topics are considered in this setting, inter alia Whitehead products, Hopf invariants and the -- sequence. The main emphasis is on detection of non-trivial elements in the -homotopy groups of spheres.

Solution of the quadratically hyponormal completion problem

For , let be a collection of () positive weights. The Quadratically Hyponormal Completion Problem seeks necessary and sufficient conditions on to guarantee the existence of a quadratically hyponormal unilateral weighted shift with as the initial segment of weights. We prove that admits a quadratically hyponormal completion if and only if the self-adjoint matrix

is positive and invertible, where , , , , , and, for notational convenience, . As a particular case, this result shows that a collection of four positive numbers always admits a quadratically hyponormal completion. This provides a new qualitative criterion to distinguish quadratic hyponormality from 2-hyponormality.

     

On asymmetry of the future and the past for limit self-joinings

Let be an off-diagonal joining of a transformation . We construct a non-typical transformation having asymmetry between limit sets of for positive and negative powers of . It follows from a correspondence between subpolymorphisms and positive operators, and from the structure of limit polynomial operators. We apply this technique to find all polynomial operators of degree in the weak closure (in the space of positive operators on ) of powers of Chacon's automorphism and its generalizations.
