Asymptotic properties of local densities of measures generated by semimartingales

For families of probability measures (P , )) generated by semimartingales, we consider the local density)(y, )= _t (y, )) _t0 of a, measureP _y with respect to the measureP whose logarithm is the difference of a local martingale and a positive predictable increasing locally bounded process. Conditions are obtained under which the relations and hold, wherey _t depends in some way ont, while _t ast . Applications of these relations are exhibited and an example is given when the hypotheses of the theorems proved can be verified.Translated fromTeoriya Sluchaínykh Protsessov, Vol. 14, pp. 48–55, 1986.     

Adjoints of slant Toeplitz operators II

Let be the unit circle {z|z|=1} and _n c _n e ⁱⁿ be a bounded measurable function on . Theslant Toeplitz operator A onL ² ( ) is defined by A e _n ,e _m =c _2m–n for allm, n wheree _n (z)=z ⁿ , . In this paper, we continue the study initiated in [6] onA ^* , the adjoint ofA . Specifically, we will show that for a certain dense set of continuous functions on ,A ^* is similar to some constant multiple of either a shift, or a shift plus a rank one operator.

Eine Charakterisierung der Potenzreihenräume von endlichem Typ und ihre Folgerungen

In the present article there is given a characterization of power series spaces of finite type by linear topological invariants. This is used to give a complete characterization of the classes of subspaces and quotient spaces of any nuclear stable power series space ₁(). It is further used for the investigation of exact sequences of the form O_r()E()O. They are known to split for =+. It is shown that for r<+, p<+, but the sequence need not split. There are examples for for r=+, p<+. At last the characterization is used to determine the structure of certain systems of linear equations in infinitely many variables (ct. Mityagin [10], Probl. 4.6). At the end of the article we give conditions on a space E for the existence of a ₁() such that E is a subspace or a quotient space of E and we give an example of an isomorphy proof using the previous results.

Nonlinear semigroups and age-dependent population models

Summary This paper treats the nonlinear age-dependent population problem (1)(0,a)=(a), a I; (2)(t, 0)=F((t, ·)), t0; (3) ,t0,where I is the age range of the population, (t, ·) is the unknown age density at time t, is the known initial age distribution, and the functionals F and G are nonlinear.

Dimension Theory and Nonstable K1 of Quadratic Modules

Employing Bak's dimension theory, we investigate the nonstable quadratic K-group K _1,2n (A, ) = G _2n (A, )/E _2n (A, ), n 3, where G _2n (A, ) denotes the general quadratic group of rank n over a form ring (A, ) and E _2n (A, ) its elementary subgroup. Considering form rings as a category with dimension in the sense of Bak, we obtain a dimension filtration G _2n (A, ) G _2n ⁰(A, ) ; G _2n ¹(A, ) ... E _2n (A, ) of the general quadratic group G _2n (A, ) such that G _2n (A, )/G _2n ⁰(A, ) is Abelian, G _2n ⁰(A, ) G _2n ¹(A, ) ... is a descending central series, and G _2n ^d(A)(A, ) = E _2n (A, ) whenever d(A) = (Bass–Serre dimension of A) is finite. In particular K _1,2n (A, ) is solvable when d(A) < .     

Polynomial Filtrations and Lannes'' T Functor

This paper defines and studies the polynomial filtration [p_k ] of the shift functor : F , where F is the category of functors between F-vector spaces over a finite field F. The functors [p_k ] correspond to a system of functors (p_k T):U U, related to Lannes'T-functor on the category U of unstable modules over the Steenrod algebra. The main results concern the behaviour of the quotients ~ _s:=~/[p_s-1~ filtrations by ~_s-nilpotent functors are introduced and it is shown that the full subcategory of _s-nilpotent functors is thick.     

Best mean-square approximation of functions of m variables

Let be the best mean-square approximation of a functionf(x) L₂(R_m) (m=1, 2, ...) by integral functions of the exponential spherical type (in the sense of thel _q metric, 0>0, where(f,/; l _p)L₂(R_m) is the spherical (in the sense of the metricl _p, 0f(x) L₂(R_m). For the quantity two-sided estimates are obtained which are uniform in the parameters m, q, and p. Similar results are also obtained in the case of q=p=2 for classes of functions W _f2 (R_m) (=1,2,...).Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 14, No. 6, pp. 913–924, December, 1973.The author would like to express his deep gratitude to N.

Stabilization of ill-posed Cauchy problems for parabolic equations

Summary In this paper we study the noncharacteristic Cauchy problem, u_t–(a(x)u_x)_x=0, x(0, l), t.(0, T], u(0, t)=(t), u_x(0,t)=0, 0tT, assuming only L for a. In the case of weak a priori bounds on u, we derive stability estimates on u of Hölder type in the interior and of logarithmic type at the boundary. Also the continuous dependence on a is considered.

Sunto Nel presente lavoro consideriamo il problema di Cauchy non ben posto u_t= (a(x)u_x)_x, x(0, l), t(0, T), u(0, t)=(t), u_x(0, t)=0, 0tT. Supponiamo che a sia misurabile e limitato inferiormente e superiormente da constanti positive. Introduciamo delle limitazioni a priori su u e dimostriamo la dipendenza continua di u rispetto al dato sia in (0, l)×(0, T) (di tipo hölderiano) sia per x=l (di tipo logaritmico). Consideriamo, inoltre, la dipendenza continua di u da a.

     

Interpolation of spectra

By the M.Riesz Convexity Theorem, an operator T on the space of simple integrable functions into the measurable functions (on some measure space) which has continuous extensions to L^p() and L^q() , where 1 p q , also has continuous exten — sions to all L^r () , p r q . It is shown that, whenever (T_p) and (T_q) are o-dimensional (in particular, countable) then the spectra (T_r) (p r q) are pairwise identical. For q = , only w^*-continuous extensions are considered. An example due to Dayanithy shows that the conclusion fails in general.

Global Attractivity of the Equilibrium of a Nonlinear Difference Equation

The authors consider the nonlinear difference equation x_n+1=x_n+x_n-kf(x_n-k),n=0,1,(0.1) where (0,1), k 0,1, and f C¹[[0,), [0,)] with f(x) < 0.They give sufficient conditions for the unique positive equilibrium of (0.1) to be a global attractor of all positive solutions. The results here are somewhat easier to apply than those of other authors. An application to a model of blood cell production is given.

Die Verteilung der schlichten Funktionen in einem Funktionenraum

We consider the set of regular functions . We construct a Borel measure and a class of outer measures _h onH. With these and _h we show that: (HS)=0 and _h (HS)=0, (S is the set of normed univalent functions). From _h (HS)=0 follows—forh=t —that the Hausdorff—Billingsley-dimension ofHS is zero.     

On regularities of the distribution of special sequences

Ifp2 is an integer, then every nonnegative integerk is represented by an expression of the form with integersa _i (k), 0a _i (k)p–1,i=0.1,...,s. The radical-inverse function to the basep, _p (k), is defined by . The sequence is uniformly distributed modulo 1 (it may be called a one-dimensional Halton sequence). In the casep=2 it is the van der Corput sequence. The set of all numbers (0, 1] such that the local discrepancy is bounded inn is determined.     

Imbedding theorems for the invariant subspaces of the backward shift operator

For subspaces K ^p of the form of the Hardy space H^p and for measures with support in the closed unit circleclos , one finds conditions that ensure the imbedding KL^p(). One considers measures with support inclos , satisfying the following condition: for some number >0 and for all circles with center on the circumference, intersecting the set , we have the inequality ()C(). Here C does not depend on , while () is the radius of the circle . For such measures one has the imbedding K ^p L^p(). From here one derives a criterion for the imbedding K _A ² L²(), found by B. Cohn for inner functions , such that the set is connected for some positive . In the paper one also proves that a condition on , necessary and sufficient for the imbedding of K ^p into L^p(), must depend on p.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Disintegration with respect to L p-density functions and singular measures

Summary Let A be a real or complex commutative ordered algebra with identity and involution. Let denote the set of positive multiplicative linear functionals on A. Equip with the topology of simple convergence. For a fixed non-negative probability measure on the set _p of linear functionals f on A which admit an integral representation of the form with FL _p () (1p) is biuniquely identified with L _p () via the map tfF. The norm on _p under which this map becomes an isometry is characterized and a formula for approximating F is derived. The linear functionals which admit representation of the form with are also characterized and appropriately normed. The theory is applied to solve abstract versions of trigonometric and n-dimensional moment problems as well as provide an alternate point of view to the theory of L _p-spaces. New proofs of classical theorems are offered.Research for this paper was sponsored in part by the Danish Natural Science Research Council (Grant No.511-10302) and in part by the National Science Foundation (Grant No. MCS78-03397)The results contained herein include the proofs of theorems announced in [15]
