Discrete time analytic semigroups and the geometry of Banach spaces

We study different notions of discrete maximal regularity for discrete-time abstract Cauchy problems in Banach spaces. First we look at l ₂-discrete maximal regularity and show that Hilbert spaces are the only Banach spaces, among spaces with an unconditional basis, in which the analyticity of the associated discrete-time semigroup is a sufficient condition to obtain this kind of regularity. We then turn to different notions of regularity, in a l ₁ and in a l _∞ sense. We link the existence of particular semigroups such that the associated Cauchy problem has one of these maximal regularities to the geometry of the underlying Banach space (more precisely, to the existence of a complemented subspace isomorphic to c ₀ or l ₁). Finally, we give some elements to compare these regularities.     

Existence of Global Solutions for a Class of Abstract Second-Order Nonlocal Cauchy Problem with Impulsive Conditions in Banach Spaces

In this paper, we are concerned with a class of abstract second-order nonlocal Cauchy problem with impulsive conditions in Banach spaces. First, we study the existence of mild solutions for a class of second-order nonlocal Cauchy problem with impulsive conditions in Banach spaces on an interval [0,a]. Later, we study a couple of cases where we can establish the existence of global solutions for a class of abstract second-order nonlocal Cauchy problem with impulsive conditions in Banach spaces. We apply our theory to study the existence of solutions for impulsive partial differential equations.     

Multidimensional ultrametric pseudodifferential equations

We develop an analysis of wavelets and pseudodifferential operators on multidimensional ultrametric spaces which are defined as products of locally compact ultrametric spaces. We introduce bases of wavelets, spaces of generalized functions and the space D′₀(X) of generalized functions on a multidimensional ultrametric space. We also consider some family of pseudodifferential operators on multidimensional ultrametric spaces. The notions of Cauchy problem for ultrametric pseudodifferential equations and of ultrametric characteristics are introduced. We prove an existence theorem and describe all solutions for the Cauchy problem (an analog of the Kovalevskaya theorem).     

On ordinary and standard products of infinite family of <Emphasis Type="Italic">σ</Emphasis>-finite measures and some of their applications

We introduce notions of ordinary and standard products of σ-finite measures and prove their existence. This approach allows us to construct invariant extensions of ordinary and standard products of Haar measures. In particular, we construct translation-invariant extensions of ordinary and standard Lebesgue measures on ℝ^∞ and Rogers-Fremlin measures on ℓ ^∞, respectively, such that topological weights of quasi-metric spaces associated with these measures are maximal (i.e., 2 ^c ). We also solve some Fremlin problems concerned with an existence of uniform measures in Banach spaces.     

A class of Banach sequence spaces analogous to the space of Popov

Hagler and the first named author introduced a class of hereditarily l ₁ Banach spaces which do not possess the Schur property. Then the first author extended these spaces to a class of hereditarily l _p Banach spaces for 1 ⩽ p < ∞. Here we use these spaces to introduce a new class of hereditarily l _p (c ₀) Banach spaces analogous of the space of Popov. In particular, for p = 1 the spaces are further examples of hereditarily l ₁ Banach spaces failing the Schur property.     

Maximal time regularity for degenerate evolution integro-differential equations

We provide maximal time regularity properties for the solutions to a class of degenerate first-order integro-differential Cauchy problems in a Banach space X. In particular, we show that an additional condition of space regularity on the data it suffices for restoring the loss of time regularity which arises naturally when dealing with the degenerate case.     

On the Solutions of a $$$$-Dimensional Model for Epitaxial Growth with Axial Symmetry

In this paper, we study the evolution equation derived by Xu and Xiang (SIAM J Appl Math 69(5):1393–1414, 2009) to describe heteroepitaxial growth in \(2+1\) dimensions with elastic forces on vicinal surfaces is in the radial case and uniform mobility. This equation is strongly nonlinear and contains two elliptic integrals and defined via Cauchy principal value. We will first derive a formally equivalent parabolic evolution equation (i.e., full equivalence when sufficient regularity is assumed), and the main aim is to prove existence, uniqueness and regularity of strong solutions. We will extensively use techniques from the theory of evolution equations governed by maximal monotone operators in Banach spaces.     

Embedding Theorems in B-Spaces and Applications

This study focuses on the anisotropic Besov-Lions type spaces B^lp,θ（Ω;E0,E） associated with Banach spaces E0 and E. Under certain conditions, depending on l =（l1,l2,…,ln）and α=（α1,α2,…,αn）,the most regular class of interpolation space Eα between E0 and E are found so that the mixed differential operators D^α are bounded and compact, from B^l＋s p,θ（Ω;E0,E） to B^s p,θ（Ω;Eα）.These results are applied to concrete vector-valued function spaces and to anisotropic differential-operator equations with parameters to obtain conditions that guarantee the uniform B separability with respect to these parameters. By these results the maximal B-regularity for parabolic Cauchy problem is obtained. These results are also applied to infinite systems of the quasi-elliptic partial differential equations and parabolic Cauchy problems with parameters to obtain sufficient conditions that ensure the same properties.     

Cauchy Complete Nearness Spaces

A nearness space is Cauchy complete if every regular Cauchy filter on the space is convergent. We show that the category CCNear ₂ of Cauchy complete N ₂ spaces is reflective in the category Near ₂ C of N ₂-spaces and Cauchy maps and that the reflection of an N ₂-space is given by the strict extension associated with regular Cauchy filters on the space.     

A Characterization of l + 1(Γ)

In this article we give necessary and sufficient conditions in order a closed cone of a Banach space E to be isomorphic to the positive cone l ₁ ⁺(Γ) of an l ₁(Γ) space. This problem has applications in the theory of Banach spaces as in the characterization of reflexive spaces and also on the problem of the embeddability of 1in Banach spaces.     

ON ORBITS OF POLYNOMIAL MAPS IN BANACH SPACES

Abstract

We obtain some results concerning the notions of hypercyclicity and supercyclicity for continuous homogeneous polynomial maps in Banach spaces. We also present a generalization of a theorem due to Beauzamy concerning the existence of orbits tending to infinity for continuous linear operators with spectral radius > 1.     

Iterative approximation to common fixed points of a countable family of nonexpansive mappings

We proved several strong convergence results by using the conception of a uniformly asymptotically regular sequence {T _n } of nonexpansive mappings in a reflexive Banach space which admits a weakly continuous duality mapping J _?(l ^p (1?p?t)?=?t ^p?1. The results presented develop and complement the corresponding ones by Song, Y. and Chen, R., 2007 [Iterative approximation to common fixed points of nonexpansive mapping sequences in reflexive Banach spaces.

Some banach space properties of E φ [0, 1]

We prove several Banach spaces properties of E ^φ [0, 1], many of them concerning to the Δ₂ condition and the presence of c ₀ and l ₁ in those Banach spaces.     

PROJECTIONS ON OPERATOR DUALS

Abstract

We discuss the existence of a projection with kernel K_b(E,F) ¹ (the annihilator of the quasi-compact operators) on the dual space of the space L _b,(E, F) of continous linear operators. Our results are proved in the context of Hausdorff locally convex spaces, but also provide extensions of recent results in the context of Banach spaces.     

σ-Contractible and σ-biprojective Banach algebras

Abstract

The notion of σ-amenability for Banach algebras and its related notions were introduced and extensively studied by M.S. Moslehian and A.N. Motlagh in [10]. We develop these notions parallel to the amenability of Banach algebras introduced by B.E. Johnson in [5]. Briefly, we investigate σ-contractibility and σ-biprojectivity of Banach algebras, which are extensions of usual notions of contractibility and biprojectivity, respectively, where σ is a bounded endomorphism of the corresponding Banach algebra. We also give the notion σ-diagonal. Then we verify relations between σ-contractibility, σ-biprojectivity and the existence of a σ-diagonal for a Banach algebra, when σ has dense range or is an idempotent. Moreover, we obtain some hereditary properties of these concepts.     

Linear and nonlinear abstract equations with parameters

This paper focuses on nonlocal boundary value problems for linear and nonlinear abstract elliptic equations in Banach spaces. Here equations and boundary conditions contain certain parameters. The uniform separability of the linear problem and the existence and uniqueness of maximal regular solution of nonlinear problem are obtained in L_p spaces. For linear case the discreteness of spectrum of corresponding parameter dependent differential operator is obtained. The behavior of solution when the parameter approaches zero and its smoothness with respect to the parameter is established. Moreover, we show the estimate for analytic semigroups in terms of interpolation spaces. This fact can be used to obtain maximal regularity properties for abstract boundary value problems.     

Existence of solutions of infinite systems of differential equations of general order with boundary conditions in the spaces c0 and ℓ1 via the measure of noncompactness

The aim of this paper is to obtain existence results for an infinite system of differential equations of order n with boundary conditions in the Banach spaces c₀ and ℓ₁ with the help of a technique associated with measures of noncompactness. We also provide some illustrative examples in support of our existence theorems.     

On tree characterizations of <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis><Subscript>δ</Subscript>-embeddings and some Banach spaces

We show that a one-to-one bounded linear operator T from a separable Banach space E to a Banach space X is a G _δ-embedding if and only if every T-null tree in S _E has a branch which is a boundedly complete basic sequence. We then consider the notions of regulators and skipped blocking decompositions of Banach spaces and show, in a fairly general set up, that the existence of a regulator is equivalent to that of special skipped blocking decomposition. As applications, the following results are obtained. (a) A separable Banach space E has separable dual if and only if every w*-null tree in S _E * has a branch which is a boundedly complete basic sequence. (b) A Banach space E with separable dual has the point of continuity property if and only if every w-null tree in S _E has a branch which is a boundedly complete basic sequence. We also give examples to show that the tree hypothesis in both the cases above cannot be replaced in general with the assumption that every normalized w*-null (w-null in (b)) sequence has a subsequence which is a boundedly complete basic sequence.

Entropy numbers and lattice arrangements in l∞ (Γ)

The Banach spaces l_∞(Γ) admit tilings by balls of equal size that are arranged along a lattice. We present classes of bounded sets in spaces l_∞(Γ) whose optimal packings and covers in the sense of inner and outer metric entropy numbers are realized by lattice arrangements. © 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

John's decompositions: Selecting a large part

We extend the invertibility principle of J. Bourgain and L. Tzafriri to operators acting on arbitrary decompositionsid = ∑x _j ⊕x _j , rather than on the coordinate one. The John's decomposition brings this result to the local theory of Banach spaces. As a consequence, we get a new lemma of Dvoretzky-Rogers type, where the contact points of the unit ball with its maximal volume ellipsoid play a crucial role. We then apply these results to embeddings ofl _∞ ^k into finite dimensional spaces.
