An iterated logarithm law related to decimal and continued fraction expansions

For an irrational number x and n ≥ 1, we denote by k _n (x) the exact number of partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of x given by the first n decimals of x. G. Lochs proved that for almost all x, with respect to the Lebesgue measure In this paper, we prove that an iterated logarithm law for {k _n (x): n ≥ 1}, more precisely, for almost all x, for some constant σ > 0.

About entire functions with specialL 2-properties on one-dimensional subspaces of ℂ n

In this paper we consider special elements of the Fock space #x2131; _n . That is the space of entire functionsf:ℂ: ⁿ →ℂ, such that the followingL ²- condition is satisfied: . Here we show that there exists an entire functiong:ℂ ⁿ →ℂ such that for every one-dimensional subspace Π⊂ℂ ⁿ and for all 0<∈<2 we have , but in the limit case ∈=0 we have . This result is analogue to a result from [1]. There holomorphic functions on the unit-ball are investigated. Furthermore the proof — as the one in [1] — uses a theorem from [2]. Therefore we give another application of the results from [2] — namely for spaces of entire functions.     

On the Greatest Common Di visor of u − 1 and v − 1 with u and v Near ${\cal S}$- units

In [2], it was shown that if a and b are multiplicatively independent integers and ɛ > 0, then the inequality gcd (aⁿ − 1,bⁿ − 1) < exp(ɛn) holds for all but finitely many positive integers n. Here, we generalize the above result. In particular, we show that if f(x),f₁(x),g(x),g₁(x) are non-zero polynomials with integer coefficients, then for every ɛ > 0, the inequality holds for all but finitely many positive integers n.     

Endomorphisms of Jacobians of modular curves

Let be the modular curve associated to a congruence subgroup Γ of level N with , and let be its canonical model over . The main aim of this paper is to show that the endomorphism algebra of its Jacobian is generated by the Hecke operators T _p , with , together with the “degeneracy operators” D _M,d , D ^t _M,d , for . This uses the fundamental results of Ribet on the structure of together with a basic result on the classification of the irreducible modules of the algebra generated by these operators.

A note on symbolic and ordinary powers of homogeneous ideals

In this note we are interested in the graded modulesM _k=I^(k)/I^k and , whereI is a saturated ideal in the homogeneous coordinate ringS=K[x₀,…,x_n] of ℙⁿ,I ^(k) is the symbolic power and is the saturation of the ordinary power. Very little is known about these modules, and we provide a bound on their diameters, we compute the Hilbert functions and we study some characteristic submodules in the special case ofn+1 general points in ℙⁿ.

A strong law of large numbers for nonexpansive vector-valued stochastic processes

A mapT: X→X on a normed linear space is callednonexpansive if ‖Tx-Ty‖≤‖x-y‖∀x, y∈X. Let (Ω, Σ,P) be a probability space, an increasing chain of σ-fields spanning Σ,X a Banach space, andT: X→X. A sequence (x_n) of strongly -measurable and stronglyP-integrable functions on Ω taking on values inX is called aT-martingale if . LetT: H→H be a nonexpansive mapping on a Hilbert spaceH and let (x_n) be aT-martingale taking on values inH. If then x _n /n converges a.e. LetT: X→X be a nonexpansive mapping on ap-uniformly smooth Banach spaceX, 1<p≤2, and let (x_n) be aT-martingale (taking on values inX). If then there exists a continuous linear functionalf∈X ^* of norm 1 such that If, in addition, the spaceX is strictly convex, x _n /n converges weakly; and if the norm ofX ^* is Fréchet differentiable (away from zero), x _n /n converges strongly.

Let a_n≥0 and F(u)∈C [0,1], Sikkema constructed polynomials: , ifα _n ≡0, then B_n (0, F, x) are Bernstein polynomials. Let , we constructe new polynomials in this paper: Q _n ^(k) (α _n ,f(t))=d ^k /dx ^k B _n+k (α _n ,F _k (u),x), which are called Sikkema-Kantorovic polynomials of order k. Ifα _n ≡0, k=1, then Q_n ⁽¹⁾ (0, f(t), x) are Kantorovič polynomials P_n(f). Ifα _n =0, k=2, then Q_n ⁽²⁾, (0, f(t), x) are Kantorovič polynomials of second order (see Nagel). The main result is: Theorem 2. Let 1≤p≤∞, in order that for every f∈L^P [0, 1], , it is sufficient and necessary that , § 1. Let f(t) de a continuous function on [a, b], i. e., f∈C [a, b], we define^{[1–2],[8–10]}: . As usual, for the space L^p [a,b](1≤p<∞), we have and L[a, b]=l¹[a, b].

Extension of Floquet''''s theory to nonlinear quasiperiodic differential equations

In this paper, we consider the following autonomous system of differential equations: x = Ax f(x,θ), θ = ω, where θ∈Rm, ω = (ω1,…,ωm) ∈ Rm, x ∈ Rn, A ∈ Rn×n is a constant matrix and is hyperbolic, f is a C∞ function in both variables and 2π-periodic in each component of the vector e which satisfies f = O(||x||2) as x → 0. We study the normal form of this system and prove that under some proper conditions this system can be transformed to an autonomous system: x = Ax g(x), θ = ω. Additionally, the proof of this paper naturally implies the extension of Chen's theory in the quasi-periodic case.     

Pan-connectedness of graphs with large neighborhood unions

Let G be a simple graph with n vertices. For any , let , and , and and u and v has distance 2 in E(G)}. Let l ≥ 1 be an integer. A graph G on n ≥ l vertices is [l, n]-pan-connected if for any , and any integer m with l ≤ m ≤ n, G has a (u, v)-path of length m. In 1998, Wei and Zhu (Graphs Combinatorics 14:263–274, 1998) proved that for a three-connected graph on n ≥ 7 vertices, if NC(G) ≥ n − δ(G) + 1, then G is [6, n]-pan-connected. They conjectured that such graphs should be [5, n]-pan-connected. In this paper, we prove that for a three-connected graph on n ≥ 7 vertices, if NC ₂(G) ≥ n − δ(G) + 1, then G is [5, n]-pan-connected. Consequently, the conjecture of Wei and Zhu is proved as NC ₂(G) ≥ NC(G). Furthermore, we show that the lower bound is best possible and characterize all 2-connected graphs with NC ₂(G) ≥ n − δ(G) + 1 which are not [4, n]-pan-connected.
