Matrix Transformations of the Maddox Vector-Valued Sequence Spaces

In this paper, we give the matrix characterizations from any normal vector-valued FK-space containing ø(X) into scalar-valued sequence space c(q) and by applying this result, we also obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for infinite matrices mapping the sequence spaces , and F_r(X,p) into the space c(q), where p = (p_k) and q = (q_k) are bounded sequences of positive real numbers and r ≥ 0.AMS Subject Classification (2000): 46A45.     

Grothendieck’s comparison theorem and multivariable Fredholm theory

We use a variant of Grothendieck’s comparison theorem to show that, for a Fredholm tuple T ∈ L(X)ⁿ on a complex Banach space, there are isomorphisms . We conclude that a Fredholm tuple T ∈ L(X)ⁿ satisfies Bishop’s property (β) at z = 0 if and only if the vanishing conditions hold for . We apply these observations and results from commutative algebra to show that a graded tuple on a Hilbert space is Fredholm if and only if it satisfies Bishop’s property (β) at z = 0 and that, in this case, its cohomology groups can grow at most like k^p.

Topological dimensions and multifractal Rényi dimensions of Polish spaces: a multifractal Szpilrajn type theorem

In this paper we consider the relationship between the topological dimension and the lower and upper q-Rényi dimensions and of a Polish space X for q ∈ [1, ∞]. Let and denote the Hausdorff dimension and the packing dimension, respectively. We prove that for all analytic metric spaces X (whose upper box dimension is finite) and all q ∈ (1, ∞); of course, trivially, for all q ∈ [1, ∞]. As a corollary to this we obtain the following result relating the topological dimension and the lower and upper q-Rényi dimensions: for all Polish spaces X and all q ∈ [1, ∞]; in (1) and (2) we have used the following notation, namely, for two metric spaces X and Y, we write X ∼ Y if and only if X is homeomorphic to Y. Equality (1) has recently been proved for q = ∞ by Myjak et al. Author’s address: Department of Mathematics, University of St. Andrews, St. Andrews, Fife KY16 9SS, Scotland     

A Variational ODE and its Application to an Elliptic Problem

In this paper,we consider the following ODE problem(P)where f ∈ C((0, ∞)×R,R),f(r,s)goes to p(r)and q(r)uniformly in r>0 as s→0 and s→ ∞,respectively,0≤p(r)≤q(r)∈ L~∞(0,∞).Moreover,for r>0,f(r,s)is nondecreasing in s≥0.Some existenceand non-existence of positive solutions to problem(P)are proved without assuming that p(r)≡0 and q(r)hasa limit at infinity.Based on these results,we get the existence of positive solutions for an elliptic problem.     

On the Structure of a Certain Class of Mixed Tsirelson Spaces

We study Banach spaces of the form We call such a space a p-space, p[1,), if for every k the space is isomorphic to _pk and the sequence (p_k) strictly decreases to p. We examine the finite block representability of the spaces _r in a p-space proving that it depends not only on p but also on the sequences (p_k) and (n_k). Assuming that _i n_i ^1/q decreases to 0, where q is the conjugate exponent of p, we prove the existence of an asymptotic biorthogonal system in X and also that c ₀ is finitely representable in X. Moreover we investigate the modified versions of p-spaces proving that, if n_km1/pkm-1/pk_m-1 increases to infinity for a subsequence (n_km) , then ₁ embeds into X. We also investigate complemented minimality for the class of spaces where is either a subsequence of the sequence of Schreier classes ( _n)_{n N} or a subsequence of ( _n)_{n N}.

Typical <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis></Superscript>-Dimensions of Measures

For a probability measure μ on a subset of , the lower and upper L^q-dimensions of order are defined by We study the typical behaviour (in the sense of Baire’s category) of the L^q-dimensions and . We prove that a typical measure μ is as irregular as possible: for all q ≥ 1, the lower L^q-dimension attains the smallest possible value and the upper L^q-dimension attains the largest possible value.     

On super vertex-graceful unicyclic graphs

A graph G with p vertices and q edges, vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G), is said to be super vertex-graceful (in short SVG), if there exists a function pair (f, f ⁺) where f is a bijection from V(G) onto P, f ⁺ is a bijection from E(G) onto Q, f ⁺((u, v)) = f(u) + f(v) for any (u, v) ∈ E(G),

Generically finite morphisms and formal neighborhoods of arcs

Let f : X → Y be a morphism of pure-dimensional schemes of the same dimension, with X smooth. We prove that if is an arc on X having finite order e along the ramification subscheme R _f of X, and if its image δ = f _∞(γ) on Y does not lie in J _∞(Y _sing), then the induced map T _γ J _∞(X) → T _δ J _∞(Y) is injective, with a cokernel of dimension e. In particular, if Y is smooth too, and if we denote by and the formal neighborhoods of and , then the induced morphism is a closed embedding of codimension e.

Finite elements approximation of second order linear elliptic equations in divergence form with right-hand side in L 1

In this paper we consider, in dimension d≥ 2, the standard finite elements approximation of the second order linear elliptic equation in divergence form with coefficients in L ^∞(Ω) which generalizes Laplace’s equation. We assume that the family of triangulations is regular and that it satisfies an hypothesis close to the classical hypothesis which implies the discrete maximum principle. When the right-hand side belongs to L ¹(Ω), we prove that the unique solution of the discrete problem converges in (for every q with ) to the unique renormalized solution of the problem. We obtain a weaker result when the right-hand side is a bounded Radon measure. In the case where the dimension is d = 2 or d = 3 and where the coefficients are smooth, we give an error estimate in when the right-hand side belongs to L ^r (Ω) for some r > 1.     

Another construction for large sets of Kirkman triple systems

A large set of Kirkman triple systems of order v, denoted by LKTS(v), is a collection , where every is a KTS(v) and all form a partition of all triples on X. In this article, we give a new construction for LKTS(6v + 3) via OLKTS(2v + 1) with a special property and obtain new results for LKTS, that is there exists an LKTS(3v) for , where p, q ≥ 0, r _i , s _j ≥ 1, q _i is a prime power and mod 12.      

Discretization of Compact Riemannian Manifolds Applied to the Spectrum of Laplacian

For κ ⩾ 0 and r₀ > 0 let ℳ(n, κ, r₀) be the set of all connected, compact n-dimensional Riemannian manifolds (Mⁿ, g) with Ricci (M, g) ⩾ −(n−1) κ g and Inj (M) ⩾ r₀. We study the relation between the kth eigenvalue λ_k(M) of the Laplacian associated to (Mⁿ,g), Δ = −div(grad), and the kth eigenvalue λ_k(X) of a combinatorial Laplacian associated to a discretization X of M. We show that there exist constants c, C > 0 (depending only on n, κ and r₀) such that for all M ∈ ℳ(n, κ, r₀) and X a discretization of for all k < |X|. Then, we obtain the same kind of result for two compact manifolds M and N ∈ ℳ(n, κ, r₀) such that the Gromov–Hausdorff distance between M and N is smaller than some η > 0. We show that there exist constants c, C > 0 depending on η, n, κ and r₀ such that for all .

Extrapolation results for <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis> < 1

Given a sublinear operator T such that is bounded, it can be shown that is bounded, with constant C/(1−q), for every 0 < q < 1. In this paper, we study the converse result, not only for sequence spaces, but for general measure spaces proving that, if T : L ^q (μ) → X is bounded, with constant C/(1−q), for every and X is Banach, then T : L log (1/L)(μ) → X is bounded. Moreover, this result is optimal. We also show that things are quite different if the Banach condition on X is dropped.

Symmetric exclusion on random sets and a related problem for random walks in random environment

Summary We study symmetric exclusion on a random set, where the underlying kernelp(x, y) is strictly positive. The random set is generated by Bernoulli experiments with success probabilityq.We prove that for certain values of the involved parameters the transport of particles through the system is drastically different from the classical situation on . In dimension one and the transport of particles occurs on a nonclassical scale and is (on a macroscopic scale)not governed by the heat equation as in the case:r<|log(1-q)| on a random set, or in the classical situation on .The reason for this behaviour is, that a random walk with jump ratesp(x, y) restricted to the random set, converges to Brownian motion in the usual scaling ifr<|log(1-q)| but yields nontrivial limit behaviour only in the scalingxu _-1 x,tu _1+a t(>) if + >r > |log(1-q)|. We calculate and study the limiting processes for the various scalings for fixed random sets. We shortly discuss the caser=+, here in general a great variety of scales yields nontrivial limits.Finally we discuss the case of a stationary random set.

In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for infinite matrices mapping from the Nakano vector-valued sequence space (X, p) into any BK-space, and by using this result, we obtain the matrix characterizations from (X, p) into the sequence spaces (Y), c₀(Y, q), c(Y), _s(Y), E_r(Y), and F_r(Y), where p = (p_k) and q = (q_k) are bounded sequences of positive real numbers such that p_k 1 for all k N, r 0, and s 1.AMS Subject Classification (2000): 46A45

Immersions of spheres and algebraically constructible functions

Let Λ be an algebraic set and let (n is even) be a polynomial mapping such that for each there is r(λ) > 0 such that the mapping g _λ  =  g(· , λ) restricted to the sphere S ⁿ (r) is an immersion for every 0  <  r  <  r (λ), so that the intersection number I(g _λ|S ⁿ (r)) is defined. Then is an algebraically constructible function. I. Karolkiewicz and A. Nowel supported by the grant BW/5100-5-0286-7.     

$$(O( V \oplus F), O( V))$$ is a Gelfand pair for any quadratic space V over a local field F

Let V be a quadratic space with a form q over an arbitrary local field F of characteristic different from 2. Let with the form Q extending q with Q(e) = 1. Consider the standard embedding and the two-sided action of on . In this note we show that any -invariant distribution on is invariant with respect to transposition. This result was earlier proven in a bit different form in van Dijk (Math Z 193:581–593, 1986) for , in Aparicio and van Dijk (Complex generalized Gelfand pairs. Tambov University, 2006) for and in Bosman and van Dijk (Geometriae Dedicata 50:261–282, 1994) for p-adic fields. Here we give a different proof. Using results from Aizenbud et al. (arXiv:0709.1273 (math.RT), submitted), we show that this result on invariant distributions implies that the pair (O(V), O(W)) is a Gelfand pair. In the archimedean setting this means that for any irreducible admissible smooth Fréchet representation (π, E) of we have A stronger result for p-adic fields is obtained in Aizenbud et al. (arXiv:0709.4215 (math.RT), submitted).
