Abelian and Hamiltonian varieties of groupoids

We study certain groupoids generating Abelian, strongly Abelian, and Hamiltonian varieties. An algebra is Abelian if t( a,[`(c)] ) = t( a,[`(d)] ) ? t( b,[`(c)] ) = t( b,[`(d)] ) t\left( {a,\bar{c}} \right) = t\left( {a,\bar{d}} \right) \to t\left( {b,\bar{c}} \right) = t\left( {b,\bar{d}} \right) for any polynomial operation on the algebra and for all elements a, b, [`(c)] \bar{c} , [`(d)] \bar{d} . An algebra is strongly Abelian if t( a,[`(c)] ) = t( b,[`(d)] ) ? t( e,[`(c)] ) = t( e,[`(d)] ) t\left( {a,\bar{c}} \right) = t\left( {b,\bar{d}} \right) \to t\left( {e,\bar{c}} \right) = t\left( {e,\bar{d}} \right) for any polynomial operation on the algebra and for arbitrary elements a, b, e, [`(c)] \bar{c} , [`(d)] \bar{d} . An algebra is Hamiltonian if any subalgebra of the algebra is a congruence class. A variety is Abelian (strongly Abelian, Hamiltonian) if all algebras in a respective class are Abelian (strongly Abelian, Hamiltonian). We describe semigroups, groupoids with unity, and quasigroups generating Abelian, strongly Abelian, and Hamiltonian varieties.     

Applications of Operator Space Theory to Nest Algebra Bimodules

Recently, Blecher and Kashyap have generalized the notion of W ^*-modules over von Neumann algebras to the setting where the operator algebras are σ closed algebras of operators on a Hilbert space. They call these modules weak* rigged modules. We characterize the weak* rigged modules over nest algebras. We prove that Y is a right weak* rigged module over a nest algebra Alg(M){\rm{Alg}(\mathcal M)} if and only if there exists a completely isometric normal representation F{\Phi } of Y and a nest algebra Alg(N){\rm{Alg}(\mathcal N)} such that Alg(N) F(Y)Alg(M) ì F(Y){\rm{Alg}(\mathcal N) \Phi (Y)\rm{Alg}(\mathcal M)\subset \Phi (Y)} while F(Y){\Phi (Y)} is implemented by a continuous nest homomorphism from M{\mathcal M} onto N{\mathcal N} . We describe some properties which are preserved by continuous CSL homomorphisms.     

Abelian and Hamiltonian groupoids

In this work, we investigate some groupoids that are Abelian algebras and Hamiltonian algebras. An algebra is Abelian if for every polynomial operation and for all elements a, b, [`(c)] \bar{c} , [`(d)] \bar{d} the implication t( a,[`(c)] ) = t( a,[`(d)] ) T t( b,[`(c)] ) = t( b,[`(d)] ) t\left( {a,\bar{c}} \right) = t\left( {a,\bar{d}} \right) \Rightarrow t\left( {b,\bar{c}} \right) = t\left( {b,\bar{d}} \right) holds. An algebra is Hamiltonian if every subalgebra is a block of some congruence on the algebra. R. J. Warne in 1994 described the structure of the Abelian semigroups. In this work, we describe the Abelian groupoids with identity, the Abelian finite quasigroups, and the Abelian semigroups S such that abS = aS and Sba = Sa for all a, b ∈ S. We prove that a finite Abelian quasigroup is a Hamiltonian algebra. We characterize the Hamiltonian groupoids with identity and semigroups under the condition of Abelianity of these algebras.

Additively spectral-radius preserving surjections between unital semisimple commutative Banach algebras

Let A and B be unital, semisimple commutative Banach algebras with the maximal ideal spaces M _A and M _B , respectively, and let r(a) be the spectral radius of a. We show that if T: A → B is a surjective mapping, not assumed to be linear, satisfying r(T(a) + T(b)) = r(a + b) for all a; b ∈ A, then there exist a homeomorphism φ: M _B → M _A and a closed and open subset K of M _B such that

Fourier-Feynman transforms of unbounded functionals on abstract Wiener space

Huffman, Park and Skoug established several results involving Fourier-Feynman transform and convolution for functionals in a Banach algebra S on the classical Wiener space. Chang, Kim and Yoo extended these results to abstract Wiener space for a more generalized Fresnel class $ \mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{A}_1 ,\mathcal{A}_2 } $ \mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{A}_1 ,\mathcal{A}_2 } _A1,A2 than the Fresnel class $ \mathcal{F} $ \mathcal{F} (B)which corresponds to the Banach algebra S. In this paper we study Fourier-Feynman transform, convolution and first variation of unbounded functionals on abstract Wiener space having the form

Carleman estimates for degenerate parabolic operators with applications to null controllability

We prove an estimate of Carleman type for the one dimensional heat equation $$ u_t - \left( {a\left( x \right)u_x } \right)_x + c\left( {t,x} \right)u = h\left( {t,x} \right),\quad \left( {t,x} \right) \in \left( {0,T} \right) \times \left( {0,1} \right), $$ where a(·) is degenerate at 0. Such an estimate is derived for a special pseudo-convex weight function related to the degeneracy rate of a(·). Then, we study the null controllability on [0, 1] of the semilinear degenerate parabolic equation $$ u_t - \left( {a\left( x \right)u_x } \right)_x + f\left( {t,x,u} \right) = h\left( {t,x} \right)\chi _\omega \left( x \right), $$ where (t, x) ∈(0, T) × (0, 1), ω=(α, β) ⊂⊂ [0, 1], and f is locally Lipschitz with respect to u.

Structure theorems of <Emphasis Type="Italic">E</Emphasis>(<Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>)-Azumaya algebras

Let k be a field and E(n) be the 2 ⁿ⁺¹-dimensional pointed Hopf algebra over k constructed by Beattie, Dăscălescu and Grünenfelder [J. Algebra, 2000, 225: 743–770]. E(n) is a triangular Hopf algebra with a family of triangular structures R _M parameterized by symmetric matrices M in M _n (k). In this paper, we study the Azumaya algebras in the braided monoidal category $ E_{(n)} \mathcal{M}^{R_M } $ E_{(n)} \mathcal{M}^{R_M } and obtain the structure theorems for Azumaya algebras in the category $ E_{(n)} \mathcal{M}^{R_M } $ E_{(n)} \mathcal{M}^{R_M } , where M is any symmetric n×n matrix over k.     

Deformations of circle-valued Morse functions on surfaces

Let M be a smooth connected orientable compact surface and let F_cov ( M,S¹ ) {\mathcal{F}_{{\rm cov} }}\left( {M,{S^1}} \right) be a space of all Morse functions f : M → S ¹ without critical points on ∂M such that, for any connected component V of ∂M, the restriction f : V → S ¹ is either a constant map or a covering map. The space F_cov ( M,S¹ ) {\mathcal{F}_{{\rm cov} }}\left( {M,{S^1}} \right) is endowed with the C ^∞-topology. We present the classification of connected components of the space F_cov ( M,S¹ ) {\mathcal{F}_{{\rm cov} }}\left( {M,{S^1}} \right) . This result generalizes the results obtained by Matveev, Sharko, and the author for the case of Morse functions locally constant on ∂M.
