METRIC ENTROPY OF HOMEOMORPHISM ON NON-COMPACT METRIC SPACE

Let T : X → X be a uniformly continuous homeomorphism on a non-compact metric space (X, d). Denote by X* = X ∪ {x*} the one point compactification of X and T * : X* → X* the homeomorphism on X* satisfying T *|X = T and T *x* = x*. We show that their topological entropies satisfy hd(T, X) ≥ h(T *, X*) if X is locally compact. We also give a note on Katok’s measure theoretic entropy on a compact metric space.     

Extreme points, support points and the Loewner variation in several complex variables

In this paper we consider extreme points and support points for compact subclasses of normalized biholomorphic mappings of the Euclidean unit ball Bn in Cn. We consider the class S0(Bn) of biholomorphic mappings on Bn which have parametric representation, i.e., they are the initial elements f (·, 0) of a Loewner chain f (z, t) = etz + ··· such that {e-tf (·, t)}t 0 is a normal family on Bn. We show that if f (·, 0) is an extreme point (respectively a support point) of S0(Bn), then e-tf (·, t) is an extreme point of S0(Bn) for t 0 (respectively a support point of S0(Bn) for t ∈[0, t0] and some t0 > 0). This is a generalization to the n-dimensional case of work due to Pell. Also, we prove analogous results for mappings which belong to S0(Bn) and which are bounded in the norm by a fixed constant. We relate the study of this class to reachable sets in control theory generalizing work of Roth. Finally we consider extreme points and support points for biholomorphic mappings of Bn generated by using extension operators that preserve Loewner chains.     

Exact solution to a nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation

The nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation ?^μ?_μΦ + M²Φ + λ₁Φ^1?m + λ₂Φ^1?2m = 0 has the exact formal solution Φ = [u^2m ?λ₁u^m/(m ? 2)M²+λ₁²/(m?2)²M⁴?λ₂/4(m ? 1)M²]^1/mu^?1, m ≠ 0, 1, 2, where u and v^?1 are solutions of the linear Klein-Gordon equation. This equation is a simple generalization of the ordinary second order differential equation satisfied by the homogeneous function y = [au^m + b(uv)^m/2 + cv^m]^k/m, where u and v are linearly independent solutions of y″ + r(x) y′ + q(x) y = 0.     

Endpoint estimates for the commutator of pseudo-differential operators

It is well known that the commutator Tb of the Calderón-Zygmund singular integral operator is bounded on L^p(Rⁿ) for 1 < p < +∞ if and only if b ∈ BMO [1]. On the other hand, the commutator T_b is bounded from H¹(Rⁿ) into L¹(Rⁿ) only if the function b is a constant [2]. In this article, we will discuss the boundedness of commutator of certain pseudo-differential operators on Hardy spaces H¹. Let T^σ be the operators that its symbol is S⁰_1,δ with 0 ≤ δ < 1, if b ∈ LMO_∞, then, the commutator [b, T^σ] is bounded from H¹(Rⁿ) into L¹(Rⁿ) and from L¹(Rⁿ) into BMO(Rⁿ); If [b, T^σ] is bounded from H¹(Rⁿ) into L¹(Rⁿ) or L¹(Rⁿ) into BMO(Rⁿ), then, b ∈ LMO_loc.

Relative (pa,pb, pa,pa−b-Difference Sets: A Unified Exponent Bound and a Local Ring Construction

We show that for an odd prime p the exponent of an abelian group of order p^a+b containing a relative (p^a, p^b, p^a, p^a−b)-difference set cannot exceed p^⌊a/2⌋+1. Furthermore, we give a new local ring construction of relative (q^2u, q, q^2u, q^2u−1)-difference sets for prime powers q. Finally, we discuss an important open case concerning the existence of abelian relative (p^a, p, p^a, p^a−1)-difference sets.

Franchissement et temps local pour l'oscillateur harmonique

We consider the second order Stochastic Differential Equation dP_t^β = V_t^β dt with P₀^β = p₀, dV_t^β = βV_t^βdt − βω²P_t^β + βdW_t with V₀^β = v₀, where W stands for a standard Wiener process and where ω is a real constant. It is well-known that P^β converges, as β goes to infinity, to an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process P. In this Note, we study the convergence of the crossings of P^β at level u during the time interval [0, t] · (N_t^Pβ (u)) to the local time of P(L_t^P (u)).     

Vertex-, edge-, and total-colorings of Sierpiński-like graphs

Vertex-colorings, edge-colorings and total-colorings of the Sierpiński gasket graphs S_n, the Sierpiński graphs S(n,k), graphs S⁺(n,k), and graphs S⁺⁺(n,k) are considered. In particular, χ^″(S_n), χ^′(S(n,k)), χ(S⁺(n,k)), χ(S⁺⁺(n,k)), χ^′(S⁺(n,k)), and χ^′(S⁺⁺(n,k)) are determined.     

Applications of inversion formulas to the joint t-universality of Lerch zeta functions

In this paper, we define λ-joint, a^′-joint, (λ,λ)-joint, (λ,a^′)-joint and (a^′,a^′)-joint t-universality of Lerch zeta functions and consider the relations among those. Next we show the existence of (λ,λ)-joint t-universality. Finally, we also show the existence of λ-joint, a^′-joint, (λ,a^′)-joint and (a^′,a^′)-joint t-universality by using inversion formulas.     

Atomic decomposition characterizations of weighted multiparameter Hardy spaces

Let w ?? A _??. In this paper, we introduce weighted-(p, q) atomic Hardy spaces H _w ^p,q (? ⁿ ×? ^m ) for 0 < p ? 1, q >q _w and show that the weighted Hardy space H _w ^p (? ⁿ × ? ^m ) defined via Littlewood-Paley square functions coincides with H _w ^p,q (? ⁿ × ? ^m ) for 0 < p ? 1, q > q _w . As applications, we get a general principle on the H _w ^p (? ⁿ × ? ^m ) to L _w ^p (? ⁿ ×? ^m ) boundedness and a boundedness criterion for two parameter singular integrals on the weighted Hardy spaces.     

Invariant Peano curves of expanding Thurston maps

We consider Thurston maps, i.e., branched covering maps f:S ² → S ² that are post-critically finite. In addition, we assume that f is expanding in a suitable sense. It is shown that each sufficiently high iterate F = f ⁿ of f is semi-conjugate to z ^d :S ¹ → S ¹, where d = deg F. More precisely, for such an F we construct a Peano curve γ:S ¹ → S ² (onto), such that F°γ(z) = γ(z ^d ) (for all z∈S ¹).     

Patroids

A matroid M over a set E of elements is semiseparated by a partition {S¹, S²} of E iff rank E = rank S¹ + rank S² + 1. Such a semiseparation defines in each Sⁱ a pair of matroids or patroid Pⁱ = (Mⁱ, mⁱ); the two patroids P¹, P² weld to form M. The operations of removing and contracting a non-degenerate element of a matroid produce a patroid. The properties of patroids, their bases, and circuits are discussed.     

Two-point inequalities,the Hermite semigroup and the Gauss-Weierstrass semigroup

Let e^?zH, Re z ? 0, be the Hermite semigroup on R with Gauss measure μ. Necessary and sufficient conditions for e^?zH to be a bounded map from L^p(μ) into L^q(μ), 1 ? p, q ? ∞, are found and in many cases it is proved that e^?zH: L^p(μ) → L^q(μ) is in fact a contraction. Furthermore, these results and a formula relating the Hermite semigroup with the Gauss-Weierstrass semigroup e^zΔ enable one to calculate the precise norm of e^zΔ:L^p(dx) → L^q(dx) in a large number of cases.     

Approximation of the semigroup generated by the Hamiltonian of Reggeon field theory in Bargmann space

The Reggeon field theory is governed by a non-self adjoint operator constructed as a polynomial in A, A^*, the standard Bose annihilation and creation operators. In zero transverse dimension, this Hamiltonian acting in Bargmann space is defined by

On dimensional rigidity of bar-and-joint frameworks

Let V={1,2,…,n}. A mapping p:V→R^r, where p¹,…,pⁿ are not contained in a proper hyper-plane is called an r-configuration. Let G=(V,E) be a simple connected graph on n vertices. Then an r-configuration p together with graph G, where adjacent vertices of G are constrained to stay the same distance apart, is called a bar-and-joint framework (or a framework) in R^r, and is denoted by G(p). In this paper we introduce the notion of dimensional rigidity of frameworks, and we study the problem of determining whether or not a given G(p) is dimensionally rigid. A given framework G(p) in R^r is said to be dimensionally rigid iff there does not exist a framework G(q) in R^s for s?r+1, such that ∥qⁱ-q^j∥²=∥pⁱ-p^j∥² for all (i,j)∈E. We present necessary and sufficient conditions for G(p) to be dimensionally rigid, and we formulate the problem of checking the validity of these conditions as a semidefinite programming (SDP) problem. The case where the points p¹,…,pⁿ of the given r-configuration are in general position, is also investigated.     

Periodic behavior of a nonlinear third order vibrating system

A theorem is proved to show that the third order differential equation x^‴+f(t,x,x^′,x^″)=0 has nontrivial solutions characterized by x^′(0)=x^′(τ)=0 when x,x^′,x^″ and f(t,x,x^′,x^″) are bounded. A second condition is introduced to prove the existence of periodic solution for this equation. It is shown that the equation has a τ-periodic solution if f(t,x,x^′,x^″) is an even function with respect to x^′. The existence and periodicity conditions would be applied to third order systems such as viscoelastic mechanical vibration isolator system. The concepts of Green’s function and the Schauder’s fixed-point theorem have been used for proving the third-order-existence theorem.     

Further results on the reverse-order law

An explicit expression is obtained for a pair of generalized inverses (B^?,A^?) such that B^?A^?=(AB)⁺_MN, and a class of pairs (B^?,A^? of this property is shown. A necessary and sufficient condition for (AB)^? to have the expression B^?A^? is also given.     

Quasirecognition by prime graph of 2 D n (3α) where n = 4m + 1 ≥ 21 and α is odd

Let G be a finite group. The prime graph of G is denoted by Γ(G). In this paper, as the main result, we show that if G is a finite group such that Γ(G) = Γ(² D _n (3^α)), where n = 4m+ 1 and α is odd, then G has a unique non-Abelian composition factor isomorphic to ² D _n (3^α). We also show that if G is a finite group satisfying |G| = |² D _n (3^α)|, and Γ(G) = Γ(² D _n (3^α)), then G ? ² D _n (3^α). As a consequence of our result, we give a new proof for a conjecture of Shi and Bi for ² D _n (3^α). Application of this result to the problem of recognition of finite simple groups by the set of element orders are also considered. Specifically, it is proved that ² D _n (3^α) is quasirecognizable by the spectrum.     

The Presentation Problem of the Conjugate Cone of the Hardy Space Hp (0 < p ≤ 1)

The Hardy space Hpis not locally convex if 0 < p < 1, even though its conjugate space(Hp) separates the points of Hp. But then it is locally p-convex, and its conjugate cone(Hp) p is large enough to separate the points of Hp. In this case, the conjugate cone can be used to replace its conjugate space to set up the duality theory in the p-convex analysis. This paper deals with the representation problem of the conjugate cone(Hp) p of Hpfor 0 < p ≤ 1, and obtains the subrepresentation theorem(Hp) p L∞(T, C p).
