A distribution space for Hilbert transform and its applications

In this paper, a new distribution space is constructed and the definition of the classical Hilbert transform is extended to it. It is shown that is the biggest subspace of on which the extended Hilbert transform is a homeomorphism and both the classical Hilbert transform for L ^p functions and the circular Hilbert transform for periodic functions are special cases of the extension. Some characterizations of the space are given and a class of useful nonlinear phase signals is shown to be in . Finally, the applications of the extended Hilbert transform are discussed.

A note on the degree conjecture for the Selberg class

The degree conjecture for the Selberg class of L-functions states that the degree d _F of every F ∈ is an integer. Moreover, it is expected that every F ∈ has polynomial Euler product, and that the degree ∂ _F of such an Euler product coincides with d _F . In this note we prove that a suitable continuity assumption on the degree d _F implies that ∂ _F = d _F for all F ∈ with polynomial Euler product.      

<Emphasis Type="Italic">K</Emphasis>-Radical classes and product radical classes of <Emphasis Type="Italic">MV</Emphasis>-algebras

For an MV-algebra let J ₀( ) be the system of all closed ideals of ; this system is partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion. A radical class X of MV-algebras will be called a K-radical class iff, whenever ∈ X and is an MV-algebra with J ₀( ) ≅ J ₀( ), then ∈ X. An analogous notation for lattice ordered groups was introduced and studied by Conrad. In the present paper we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between K-radical classes of MV-algebras and K-radical classes of abelian lattice ordered groups. We also prove an analogous result for product radical classes of MV-algebras; product radical classes of lattice ordered groups were studied by Ton.

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-quasinormal and <Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>-normal subgroups of a finite group

Let be a saturated formation containing the class of supersolvable groups and let G be a finite group. The following theorems are presented: (1) G ∈ if and only if there is a normal subgroup H such that G/H ∈ and every maximal subgroup of all Sylow subgroups of H is either c-normal or S-quasinormally embedded in G. (2) G ∈ if and only if there is a normal subgroup H such that G/H ∈ and every maximal subgroup of all Sylow subgroups of F*(H), the generalized Fitting subgroup of H, is either c-normal or S-quasinormally embedded in G. (3) G ∈ if and only if there is a normal subgroup H such that G/H ∈ and every cyclic subgroup of F*(H) of prime order or order 4 is either c-normal or S-quasinormally embedded in G.

Sequential convergences on <Emphasis Type="Italic">MV</Emphasis>-algebras without Urysohn’s axiom

In a previous author’s paper, sequential convergences on an MV-algebra have been studied; the Urysohn’s axiom was assumed to be valid. The system of all such convergences was denoted by Conv . In the present paper we investigate analogous questions without supposing the validity of the Urysohn’s axiom; the corresponding system of convergences is denoted by conv . Both Conv and conv are partially ordered by the set-theoretical inclusion. We deal with the properties of conv 289-6 and the relations between conv and Conv . We prove that each interval of conv is a distributive lattice. The system conv has the least element, but it does not possess any atom. Hence it is either a singleton set or it is infinite. We consider also the relations between conv and conv G, where (G, u) is a unital lattice-ordered group with = Γ (G, u).

Direct product decompositions of bounded commutative residuated ℓ-monoids

The notion of bounded commutative residuated ℓ-monoid (BCR ℓ-monoid, in short) generalizes both the notions of MV-algebra and of BL-algebra. Let be a BCR ℓ-monoid; we denote by ℓ( ) the underlying lattice of . In the present paper we show that each direct product decomposition of ℓ( ) determines a direct product decomposition of . This yields that any two direct product decompositions of have isomorphic refinements. We consider also the relations between direct product decompositions of and states on .

Compact images of spaces with a weaker metric topology

If X is a space that can be mapped onto a metric space by a one-to-one mapping, then X is said to have a weaker metric topology. In this paper, we give characterizations of sequence-covering compact images and sequentially-quotient compact images of spaces with a weaker metric topology. The main results are that (1) Y is a sequence-covering compact image of a space with a weaker metric topology if and only if Y has a sequence of point-finite cs-covers such that for each y ∈ Y. (2) Y is a sequentially-quotient compact image of a space with a weaker metric topology if and only if Y has a sequence of point-finite cs*-covers such that for each y ∈ Y.

Using as a Semantic Markup Format

One of the great problems of Mathematical Knowledge Management (MKM) systems is to obtain access to a sufficiently large corpus of mathematical knowledge to allow the management/search/navigation techniques developed by the community to display their strength. Such systems usually expect the mathematical knowledge they operate on in the form of semantically enhanced documents, but mathematicians and publishers in Mathematics have heavily invested into the format and workflow. We analyze the current practice of semi-semantic markup in documents and extend it by a markup infrastructure that allows to embed semantic annotations into documents without changing their visual appearance. This collection of macro packages is called (semantic ) as it allows to markup documents semantically without leaving the time-tried workflow, essentially turning into an MKM format. At the heart of is a definition mechanism for semantic macros for mathematical objects and a non-standard scoping construct for them, which is oriented at the semantic dependency relation rather than the document structure. We evaluate the macro collection on a large case study: the course materials of a two-semester course in Computer Science was annotated semantically and converted to the OMDoc MKM format by Bruce Miller’s LaTeXML system.      

Cliques in Steiner systems

A partial Steiner (k,l)-system is a k-uniform hypergraph with the property that every l-element subset of V is contained in at most one edge of . In this paper we show that for given k,l and t there exists a partial Steiner (k,l)-system such that whenever an l-element subset from every edge is chosen, the resulting l-uniform hypergraph contains a clique of size t. As the main result of this note, we establish asymptotic lower and upper bounds on the size of such cliques with respect to the order of Steiner systems.

Perturbed Basins of Attraction

Let F be an automorphism of which has an attracting fixed point. It is well known that the basin of attraction is biholomorphically equivalent to . We will show that the basin of attraction of a sequence of automorphisms f ₁, f ₂, . . . is also biholomorphic to if every f _n is a small perturbation of the original map F.     

Nontrivial Solutions of Superquadratic Hamiltonian systems with Lagrangian Boundary Conditions and the L-index Theory

In this paper, the authors study the existence of nontrivial solutions for the Hamiltonian systems z（t） = J△↓H（t, z（t）） with Lagrangian boundary conditions, where ^H（t,z）=1/2（^B（t）z, z） ＋ ^H（t, z）,^B（t） is a semipositive symmetric continuous matrix and ^H（t, z） = satisfies a superquadratic condition at infinity. We also obtain a result about the L-index.     

Strong representation of weak convergence

Skorokhod's representation theorem states that if on a Polish space,there is a weakly convergent sequence of probability measures μnw→μ0,as n →∞,then there exist a probability space(Ω,F,P) and a sequence of random elements Xnsuch that Xn→ X almost surely and Xnhas the distribution function μn,n = 0,1,2,... We shall extend the Skorokhod representation theorem to the case where if there are a sequence of separable metric spaces Sn,a sequence of probability measures μnand a sequence of measurable mappings n such that μnn-1w→μ0,then there exist a probability space(Ω,F,P) and Sn-valued random elements Xndefined on Ω,with distribution μnand such that n(Xn) → X0 almost surely. In addition,we present several applications of our result including some results in random matrix theory,while the original Skorokhod representation theorem is not applicable.     

The commutant of analytic Toeplitz operators on Bergman space

In this paper, using the matrix skills and operator theory techniques we characterize the commutant of analytic Toeplitz operators on Bergman space. For f（z） = z^ng（z） （n ≥1）, g（z） = b0 ＋ b1z^p1 ＋b2z^p2 ＋.. , bk ≠ 0 （k = 0, 1, 2,...）, our main result is =A′（Mf） = A′（Mzn）∩A′（Mg） = A′（Mz^s）, where s = g.c.d.（n,p1,p2,...）. In the last section, we study the relation between strongly irreducible curve and the winding number W（f,f（α））, α ∈ D.     

∞-jets of diffeomorphisms preserving orbits of vector fields

Let F be a C ^∞ vector field defined near the origin O ∈ ℝ ⁿ , F(O) = 0, and (F _t ) be its local flow. Denote by the set of germs of orbit preserving diffeomorphisms h: ℝ ⁿ → ℝ ⁿ at O, and let , (r ≥ 0), be the identity component of with respect to the weak Whitney W ^r topology. Then contains a subset consisting of maps of the form F _α(x)(x), where α: ℝ ⁿ → ℝ runs over the space of all smooth germs at O. It was proved earlier by the author that if F is a linear vector field, then = . In this paper we present a class of examples of vector fields with degenerate singularities at O for which formally coincides with , i.e. on the level of ∞-jets at O. We also establish parameter rigidity of linear vector fields and “reduced” Hamiltonian vector fields of real homogeneous polynomials in two variables.      

Harmonic moments of branching processes in random environments

We consider harmonic moments of branching processes in general random environments. For a sequence of square integrable random variables, we give some conditions such that there is a positive constant c that every variable in this sequence belong to Ac or A1c uniformly.     

Fixed points of <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-valued maps on surfaces and the Wecken property—a configuration space approach

In this paper, we explore the fixed point theory of n-valued maps using configuration spaces and braid groups, focusing on two fundamental problems, the Wecken property, and the computation of the Nielsen number. We show that the projective plane (resp. the 2-sphere S²) has the Wecken property for n-valued maps for all n ∈ ? (resp. all n ≥ 3). In the case n = 2 and S², we prove a partial result about the Wecken property. We then describe the Nielsen number of a non-split n-valued map Open image in new window of an orientable, compact manifold without boundary in terms of the Nielsen coincidence numbers of a certain finite covering q: X? → X with a subset of the coordinate maps of a lift of the n-valued split map Open image in new window .     

Cohomology of a flag variety as a Bethe algebra

We interpret the equivariant cohomology H_GLn ^*H_{GL_n }^* (ℱ _λ ,ℂ) of a partial flag variety ℱ _λ parametrizing chains of subspaces 0 = F ₀ ⊂ F ₁ ⊂ … ⊂ F _N = ℂ ⁿ , dimF _i /F _i−1 = λ _i , as the Bethe algebra of the -weight subspace of a [t]-module .     

On quantum cluster algebras of finite type

We extend the definition of a quantum analogue of the Caldero-Chapoton map defined by D. Rupel. When Q is a quiver of finite type, we prove that the algebra (Q) generated by all cluster characters is exactly the quantum cluster algebra (Q).     

Estimates for multilinear singular integral operators with nonsmooth kernels

Let (, d, μ) be a space of homogeneous type in the sense of Coifman and Weiss. In this paper, we consider the behavior on × ⋯ × for the m-linear singular integral operators with nonsmooth kernels which were first introduced by Duong, Grafakos and Yan.     

Construct weak Hopf algebras by using Borcherds matrix

We define a new kind quantized enveloping algebra of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra by adding a new generator J satisfying jm = j for some integer m. We denote this algebra by wUqT（A）. This algebra is a weak Hopf algebra if and only if m = 2,3. In general, it is a bialgebra, and contains a Hopf subalgebra. This Hopf subalgebra is isomorphic to the usual quantum envelope algebra Uq （A） of a generalized Kac-Moody algebra A.
