Basic boundary value problems of thermoelasticity for anisotropic bodies with cuts. II

In the first part [1] of the paper the basic boundary value problems of the mathematical theory of elasticity for three-dimensional anisotropic bodies with cuts were formulated. It is assumed that the two-dimensional surface of a cut is a smooth manifold of an arbitrary configuration with a smooth boundary. The existence and uniqueness theorems for boundary value problems were formulated in the Besov and Bessel-potential ( _p ^s ) spaces. In the present part we give the proofs of the main results (Theorems 7 and 8) using the classical potential theory and the nonclassical theory of pseudodifferential equations on manifolds with a boundary.

Families of planar sets having starlike union

Let be a finite family of compact sets in the plane, and letk be a fixed natural number. If every three (not necessarily distinct) members of have a union which is simply connected and starshaped viak-paths, then and is starshaped viak-paths. Analogous results hold for paths of length at most , > 0, and for staircase paths, although not for staircasek-paths.Supported in part by NSF grant DMS-9504249     

The quadratic moment problem for the unit circle and unit disk

For the quadratic complex moment problem , we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of representing measures supported in the unit circleT or in the closed unit disk . We explicitly construct all finitely atomic representing measures supported inT or which have the fewest atoms possible. For the quadratic -moment problem in which the moment matrixM(1) is positive and invertible, there exists an ellipse D such that the minimal (3-atomic) representing measures are supported in the complement of the interior region of . Finally, we apply these results to obtain information on the location of the zeros of certain cubic polynomials.Dedicated to the memory of Velaho D.

Weakly Periodic Sequences of Bounded Linear Transformations: a Spectral Characterization

Let X and Y be two Hilbert spaces, and the space of bounded linear transformations from X into Y. Let {A } be a weakly periodic sequence of period T. Spectral theory of weakly periodic sequences in a Hilbert space is studied by H. L. Hurd and V. Mandrekar (1991).

Brownian Martingales and Some New Results on Interpolation of Hardy Spaces

Let H₁( ) be the usual Hardy space on . We show that the couple (H₁( ), L( ) is a Calderón couple. This result immediately follows from the following stronger one: Given any fH₁( ) +L( ) there exist two linear operators U and V satisfying the properties: (i) Uf=Nf (Nf being the non-tangential maximal function of f) and U is contractive from H₁( ) to L₁( ) and also from L( ) to L( ); (ii) V(Nf)=f, V is similtaneously bounded from L₁( ) to H₁( ) and from L( ) to L( ) and the norms of V on these spaces are controlled by a universal constant. We also have similar results on the couple (L_p( ), BMO ( )) for every 1相似文献   

Symmetric planes with non-classical tangent translation planes

We construct symmetric planes associated with an arbitrary locally compact connected nearfield . If is a proper nearfield, i.e. {;;}, then the tangent translation plane of this symmetric plane is not classical. All previously known examples of symmetric planes have classical tangent translation planes.Herrn Professor Dr. H. Salzmann zum 65. Geburtstag gewidmet     

Bounds for the Characteristic Functions of the System of Monomials in Random Variables and of Its Trigonometric Analogue

Using a multidimensional analogue of Vinogradov's inequality for a trigonometric integral, the upper bounds are constructed for the moduli of the characteristic functions both of the system of monomials in components of a random vector with an absolutely continuous distribution in and of the system where is uniformly distributed in [0, l]^s.     

Comparison of location models for stochastic processes

Summary Let (Q) be the statistical experiment based on the observation of an unknown function in the presence of an additive noise process with distributionQ. The (possible) loss of information whenQ is replaced by some other noise distributionP is measured by the deficiency of (P) relative to (Q). This deficiency and its relation to the variational distance ofP andQ are studied mainly for Gaussian noise processes. Gaussian diffusion processes and special set-indexed processes are treated in detail.Research supported by a Heisenberg grant of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft

We present several partial results, variants, and consistency results concerning the following (as yet unsolved) conjecture. If X is a graph on the ground set V with then X has an edge coloring F with colors such that if V is decomposed into parts then there is one in which F assumes all values.Due to some unfortunate misunderstandings, this paper appeared much later than we expected.* Research partially supported by NSF grants DMS-9704477 and DMS-0072560.

Obstructions to the Section Problem in a Fibration with a Weak Formal Base

For a class of Serre fibratations with a weak formal base X (or with a degenerated -algebra structure on the integral cohomology H*(X)), obstructions are defined by means of spherical twisting cochains of . In particular, for a given section on n-skeleton of X, the problem of avoiding the (n+1)th obstruction to the existence of a section on X ⁿ⁺¹ reduces to solving a system of linear equations with respect to cohomology elements of the groups Homotopy classification theorems for sections as well as for weak formal maps are given, too.     

Split Orthogonal Arrays and Maximum Independent Resilient Systems of Functions

A system of (Boolean) functions in variables is called randomized if the functions preserve the property of their variables to be independent and uniformly distributed random variables. Such a system is referred to as -resilient if for any substitution of constants for any variables, where 0 i t, the derived system of functions in variables will be also randomized. We investigate the problem of finding the maximum number of functions in variables of which any form a -resilient system. This problem is reduced to the minimization of the size of certain combinatorial designs, which we call split orthogonal arrays. We extend some results of design and coding theory, in particular, a duality in bounding the optimal sizes of codes and designs, in order to obtain upper and lower bounds on . In some cases, these bounds turn out to be very tight. In particular, for some infinite subsequences of integers they allow us to prove that , , , , . We also find a connection of the problem considered with the construction of unequal-error-protection codes and superimposed codes for multiple access in the Hamming channel.     

Invariant differental forms on compact nilmanifolds

Let N=G/ be a compact nilmanifold, G a connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie group with its discrete subgroup and Lie algebra . Let I* ( ) denote the invariant differential forms on .If I* ( ) H* ( ) is an injective map, then G is abelian and N is a torus. Furthermore, N has a formal minimal model. If N is an even-dimensional compact nilmanifold, it has a Kähler structure and invariant symplectic structure if and only if I* ( ) H* ( ) is injective.     

THE TENSOR CATEGORY OF LINEAR MAPS AND LEIBNIZ ALGEBRAS

We equip the category of linear maps of vector spaces with a tensor product which makes it suitable for various constructions related to Leibniz algebras. In particular, a Leibniz algebra becomes a Lie object in and the universal enveloping algebra functor UL from Leibniz algebras to associative algebras factors through the category of cocommutative Hopf algebras in . This enables us to prove a Milnor-Moore type theorem for Leibniz algebras.
