Asymptotic Density and the Asymptotics of Partition Functions

Let A be a set of positive integers with gcd (A) = 1, and let p _A (n) be the partition function of A. Let c ₀ = 2/3. If A has lower asymptotic density and upper asymptotic density , then lim inf log p _A (n)/c ₀ n and lim sup log p _A (n)/c ₀ n . In particular, if A has asymptotic density > 0, then log p _A (n) c₀n. Conversely, if > 0 and log p _A (n) c ₀ n, then the set A has asymptotic density .     

Characterization,structure and analysis on abelian ℒ∞ groups

An abelian topological group is an group if and only if it is a locally -compactk-space and every compact subset in it is contained in a compactly generated locally compact subgroup. Every abelian groupG is topologically isomorphic to G ₀ where ₀ andG ₀ is an abelian group where every compact subset is contained in a compact subgroup. Intrinsic definitions of measures, convolution of measures, measure algebra,L ₁-algebra, Fourier transforms of abelian groups are given and their properties are studied.     

Application of Topological Degree to the Study of Bifurcation in von Kármán Equations

The aim of this paper is to illustrate the use of topological degree for the study of bifurcation in von Kármán equations with two real positive parameters and for a thin elastic disk lying on the elastic base under the action of a compressing force, which may be written in the form of an operator equation F(x, , ) = 0 in some real Banach spaces X and Y. The bifurcation problem that we study is a mathematical model for a certain physical phenomenon and it is very important in the mechanics of elastic constructions. We reduce the bifurcation problem in the solution set of equation F(x, , ) = 0 at a point (0, ₀, ₀) X × IR ₊ ² to the bifurcation problem in the solution set of a certain equation in IR ⁿ at a point (0, ₀, ₀) IR ⁿ × IR ₊ ², where n = dim Ker F _x (0, ₀, ₀) and F _x (0, ₀, ₀): X Y is a Fréchet derivative of F with respect to x at (0, ₀, ₀). To solve the bifurcation problem obtained as a result of reduction, we apply homotopy and degree theory.     

Über Automorphismenbahnen von Elementen u≠O mit (ad u)3=αad u in endlichdimensionalen einfachen komplexen Lie-Algebren

In this paper we study certain semisimple elements in simple complex Koecher-Tits-constructions from Jordan-triplesystems. Let L be a finite dimensional simple complex Lie-Algebra and u O an element in L with (ad u)³=-ad u. Then there is a compact real form L of L, which contains u. The involutorial automorphism id_L+2 (ad_Lu)² of L induces a Cartan-decomposition of a real form L (u) of L and this gives us a criterion of conjugacy under Aut L for two such elements u₁, u₂L.Using this result, we show that the number of conjugacy classes of elements uL (u O) with (ad u)³=ad u (\{O}, under Aut L is equal to the number of similarity classes of Jordantriplesystems, the Koecher-Tits-construction of which is isomorphic to L. The corresponding data are finally listed for all possible types of L.     

The spectral representation of stable processes: Harmonizability and regularity

Summary We show that symmetric -stable moving average processes are not harmonizable. However, we show that a concept of generalized spectrum holds for allL _p -bounded processes O<p<-2. In capep=2, generalized spectrum is a measure and the classical representation follows. For strongly harmonizable symmetric -stable processes we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the regularity and the singularity for 0<2, using known results on the invariant subspaces. We also get Cramér-Wold decomposition for the case 0<2.Supported by CPBP01. 02.Supported by ONR N00014-85-K-0150

A constructive approach to the quantum (cosh ϕ)2 model. I. The method of the Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko equations

In a Hubert , with the aid of the postulated Gel'fand-Levitan-Marchenko quantum equations, one introduces the fields ₁(x) and ₂(x), which are the quantum analogues of the classical fields cosh (x) and sinh (x) in the sinh-Gordon model. It is shown that the fields _j(x) satisfy the Wightman axioms, including the invariance relative to reflections of space-time and mutual local commutativity. In addition, one proves the asymptotic completeness of the theory and one computes explicitly the scattering operator. In the developed approach, no cut-offs are used and, therefore, there are no renormalization effects.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Die Nuklearität der Ultradistributionsräume und der Satz vom Kern II

Continuing the research of part I conditions equivalent to ()- or ()-nuclearity of spaces of ultradifferential functions and their duals as well as some applications are given. To get these results it is shown that tensor products of smooth sequence spaces, power series spaces, and spaces S(M_q) introduced in part I are isomorphic to suitable sequence spaces of the same class, which are stable provided the factors are stable power series spaces. Hence it is possible to establish isomorphisms between different functions spaces, to calculate the nuclearity types of tensor products by the nuclearity types of the factors, and to prove that the class of ()- or ()-nuclear spaces is closed under forming tensor products iff is multiplicatively stable.

Derivatives of the Spectral Function and Sobolev Norms of Eigenfunctions on a Closed Riemannian Manifold

Let e(x, y, ) be the spectral function and the unit spectral projection operator, with respect to the Laplace–Beltrami operator on a closed Riemannian manifold M. We generalize the one-term asymptotic expansion of e(x, x, ) by Hörmander (Acta Math. 88 (1968), 341–370) to that of _{x y} e(x,y,)| _x=y for any multiindices , in a sufficiently small geodesic normal coordinate chart of M. Moreover, we extend the sharp (L ²,L ^p) (2 p) estimates of by Sogge (J. Funct. Anal. 77 (1988), 123–134; London Math. Soc. Lecture Note Ser. 137, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1989; Vol. 1, pp. 416–422) to the sharp (L ², Sobolev L ^p) estimates of .

For us to find, for the pair of probability measures (_x, _y P (X)×P(Y), a probability measure P(F) such that _X = _X ^–1 , _Y = _Y ^–1 it is necessary and sufficient that, for any pair of Borel sets A X, B Y for which (A× B) F=Ø, the condition _XA+ _YB 1 holds.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 14, No. 4, pp. 573–576, October, 1973.

Admissibility of linear estimators of regression coefficients under quadratic loss

For the general fixed effects linear model:Y=X+, N(0,V),V0, we obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions forLY+a to be admissible for a linear estimable functionS in the class of all estimators under the loss function (d -S)D(d -S), whereD0 is known. For the general random effects linear model: =XV ₁₁ X+XV ₁₂+V ₂₁ X+V ₂₂0, we also get the necessary and sufficient conditions forLY+a to be admissible for a linear estimable functionS+Q in the class of all estimators under the loss function (d -S -Q)D(d -S -Q), whereD0 is known.     

Equivalent Sets of Solutions of the Klein–Gordon Equation with a Constant Electric Field

We argue extensively in favor of our earlier choice of the in and out states (among the solutions of a wave equation with one-dimensional potential). In this connection, we study the nonstationary and stationary families of complete sets of solutions of the Klein–Gordon equation with a constant electric field. A nonstationary set _Pv consists of the solutions with the quantum number p _v=p ⁰ v–p₃. It can be obtained from the nonstationary set _P3 with the quantum number p ₃ by a boost along the x ₃ axis (in the direction of the electric field) with the velocity –v. By changing the gauge, we can bring the solutions in all sets to the same potential without changing quantum numbers. Then the transformations of solutions in one set (with the quantum number p _v) to the solutions in another set (with the quantum number p _v) have group properties. The stationary solutions and sets have the same properties as the nonstationary ones and are obtainable from stationary solutions with the quantum number p ⁰ by the same boost. It turns out that each set can be obtained from any other by gauge manipulations. All sets are therefore equivalent, and the classification (i.e., assigning the frequency sign and the in and out indices) in any set is determined by the classification in the set _P3, where it is obvious.     

Uniform boundedness of a family of set functions

Let be a ring of sets, X a normed space, : X ( ) a bounded family of triangular functions. The following generalized Nikodym theorem is established: the family {} is uniformly bounded on if and only if it is bounded on every sequence of pairwise disjoint sets of which the union is a part of some set in . An analogous criterion is established also for semiadditive functions. In addition, it is shown that uniform boundedness of a family of triangular functions is preserved in passing from a ring to the -ring it generates.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 23, No. 6, pp. 855–861, June, 1978.
