Functional operators and properties of set functions

Let X be the F-space of the functions x(t) defined on the measurable space (T, Σ, μ) with values in B-space Y. We consider the operators f mapping X to the B-space Z. X, Y, and Z are considered over the scalar field R. To each operator f is associated the family Φ_f of vector-valued functions . The characteristics of these families are given for various classes of operators. The relationship of convergence and continuation of the operators f with convergence and continuation of the corresponding families Φ_f is considered. Riesz' theorem on integral representation of linear functionals is generalized. Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im. V. A.

Deformed Hořava–Lifshitz cosmology and stability of the Einstein static universe

We investigate the stability of the Einstein static universe under linear scalar, vector, and tensor perturbations in the context of a deformed Hoˇrava-Lifshitz (HL) cosmology related to entropic forces. We obtain a general stability condition under linear scalar perturbations. Using this general condition, we show that there is no stable Einstein static universe in the case of a flat universe (k = 0). In the special case of large values of the parameter ω of HL gravity in a positively curved universe (k > 0), the domination of the quintessence and phantom matter fields with a barotropic equation of state parameter β < ?1/3 is necessary, while for a negatively curved universe (k < 0), matter fields with β > ?1/3 must be the dominant fields of the universe. We also demonstrate a neutral stability under vector perturbations. We obtain an inequality including the cosmological parameters of the Einstein static universe for stability under tensor perturbations. It turns out that for large values of ω, there is stability under tensor perturbations.     

Additive Maps Preserving Nilpotent Operators or Spectral Radius

Let X be a （real or complex） Banach space with dimension greater than 2 and let B0（X） be the subspace of B（X） spanned by all nilpotent operators on X. We get a complete classification of surjective additive maps Ф on B0（X） which preserve nilpotent operators in both directions. In particular, if X is infinite-dimensional, we prove that Ф has the form either Ф（T） = cATA^-1 or Ф（T） = cAT＇A^-1, where A is an invertible bounded linear or conjugate linear operator, c is a scalar, T＇ denotes the adjoint of T. As an application of these results, we show that every additive surjective map on B（X） preserving spectral radius has a similar form to the above with ｜c｜ = 1.     

Shellability and higher Cohen-Macaulay connectivity of generalized cluster complexes

Let Φ be a finite root system of rank n and let m be a nonnegative integer. The generalized cluster complex Δ^m(Φ) was introduced by S. Fomin and N. Reading. It was conjectured by these authors that Δ^m(Φ) is shellable and by V. Reiner that it is (m + 1)-Cohen-Macaulay, in the sense of Baclawski. These statements are proved in this paper. Analogous statements are shown to hold for the positive part Δ₊^m(Φ) of Δ^m(Φ). An explicit homotopy equivalence is given between Δ₊^m(Φ) and the poset of generalized noncrossing partitions, associated to the pair (Φ, m) by D. Armstrong.     

Amemiya Norm Equals Orlicz Norm in Musielak-Orlicz Spaces

Let （Ω,μ） be a a-finite measure space and Φ ： Ω × [0,∞） → [0, ∞] be a Musielak-Orlicz function. Denote by L^Φ（Ω） the Musielak-Orlicz space generated by Φ. We prove that the Amemiya norm equals the Orlicz norm in L^Φ（Ω）.     

Nearly flat almost monotone measures are big pieces of lipschitz graphs

A concentrated (ξ, m) almost monotone measure inR ⁿ is a Radon measure Φ satisfying the two following conditions: (1) Θ ^m (Φ,x)≥1 for every x ∈spt (Φ) and (2) for everyx ∈R ⁿ the ratioexp [ξ(r)]r^−mΦ(B(x,r)) is increasing as a function of r>0. Here ξ is an increasing function such thatlim _r→0-ξ(r)=0. We prove that there is a relatively open dense setReg (Φ) ∋spt (Φ) such that at each x∈Reg(Φ) the support of Φ has the following regularity property: given ε>0 and λ>0 there is an m dimensional spaceW ⊂R ⁿ and a λ-Lipschitz function f from x+W into x+W^‖ so that (100-ε)% ofspt(Φ) ∩B (x, r) coincides with the graph of f, at some scale r>0 depending on x, ε, and λ.     

Finite-dimensional Jordan algebras admitting the structure of a Jordan bialgebra

We define the concepts of a triangular and a quasitriangular Jordan bialgebras. It is proved that a finite-dimensional Jordan algebra J over an algebraically closed field Φ admits the structure of a quasitriangular Jordan bialgebra with nonzero comultiplication, provided that J is not a direct sum of fields, algebras H(Φ₂) and H(Φ₃), null extensions of Φ, and of algebras with zero multiplication.

On algebraic automorphisms and their rational invariants

Let X be an affine irreducible variety over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero. Given an automorphism Φ, we denote by k(X)^Φ its field of invariants, i.e., the set of rational functions f on X such that f o Φ = f. Let n(Φ) be the transcendence degree of k(X)^Φ over k. In this paper we study the class of automorphisms Φ of X for which n(Φ) = dim X - 1. More precisely, we show that under some conditions on X, every such automorphism is of the form Φ = ϕ_g, where ϕ is an algebraic action of a linear algebraic group G of dimension 1 on X, and where g belongs to G. As an application, we determine the conjugacy classes of automorphisms of the plane for which n(Φ) = 1.     

E Φ andh Φ fail to beM-ideals inL Φ andl Φ in the case of the Orlicz norm

It is well known that in the case of the Luxemburg normE ^Φ (resp.h ^Φ) is anM ideal inL ^Φ (resp.l ^Φ), see [1], [9], [15] and [6]; [17] and [18]. It is proved in this paper that in the case of the Orlicz normE ^Φ (resph ^Φ) is anM-ideal inL ^Φ (resp.l ^Φ) iff Φ satisfies the suitable Δ₂ or Φ^*(a(Φ^*)), where a(Φ^*) is linear on the interval [0,u]} and Φ^* denotes the function complementary to Φ in the sense of Young. It is also proved that any linear continuous regular (i.e. order continuous) functional ξ_υ overE ^Φ (resp.h ^Φ) generated byv∈ L(h ^Φ*) (resp.v∈ L(h ^Φ*)) which attains its norm on the unit sphereS(E ^Φ) (resp.S(h ^Φ)), has a unique norm-preserving extension toL ^Φ (resp.l ^Φ). Finally, it is proved thatL ^Φ (resp.l ^Φ) has the property that any linear continuous regular functional ξ_υ overE ^Φ (resp.h ^Φ) has a unique norm-preserving extension toL ^Φ (resp.l ^Φ) iff Φ orE ^Φ satisfies the suitable Δ₂ and in the second case Φ^* attains the value 1.     

Asymptotic Complexity in Filtration Equations

We show that the solutions of nonlinear diffusion equations of the form u _t = ΔΦ(u) appearing in filtration theory may present complicated asymptotics as t → ∞ whenever we alternate infinitely many times in a suitable manner the behavior of the nonlinearity Φ. Oscillatory behaviour is demonstrated for finite-mass solutions defined in the whole space when they are renormalized at each time t > 0 with respect to their own second moment, as proposed in [Tos05, CDT05]; they are measured in the L ¹ norm and also in the Euclidean Wasserstein distance W ₂. This complicated asymptotic pattern formation can be constructed in such a way that even a chaotic behavior may arise depending on the form of Φ. In the opposite direction, we prove that the assumption that the asymptotic normalized profile does not depend on time implies that Φ must be a power-law function on the appropriate range of values. In other words, the simplest asymptotic behavior implies a homogeneous nonlinearity.     

The Gaussian cotype of operators fromC(K)

We show that the canonical embeddingC(K) →L _Φ(μ) has Gaussian cotypep, where μ is a Radon probability measure onK, and Φ is an Orlicz function equivalent tot ^p(logt) ^p/2 for larget.     

Additive Maps Preserving Similarity of Operators on Banach Spaces

Let X be an infinite-dimensional complex Banach space and denote by B（X） the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on X. It is shown that a surjective additive map Φ from B（X） onto itself preserves similarity in both directions if and only if there exist a scalar c, a bounded invertible linear or conjugate linear operator A and a similarity invariant additive functional ψ on B（X） such that either Φ（T） = cATA^-1 ＋ ψ（T）I for all T, or Φ（T） = cAT＊A^-1 ＋ ψ（T）I for all T. In the case where X has infinite multiplicity, in particular, when X is an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, the above similarity invariant additive functional ψ is always zero.     

On the multivalence and order of starlikeness of a class of meromorphic functions

Basically this paper deals with the determination of the radius of starlikeness and radius of univalence of the class of meromorphic functions of the formg(z)=A/z−Φ(z) forA>0, and where Φ(z) is an analytic function defined in the unit disk whose modulus does not exceed unity. We estimate the radius ofp-valence of functions having the fromh(z)=Φ(z)+a/z ^p fora>1,p≧1, and also estimate the radius of starlikeness of certain Blaschke products which is also given as a function of the minimum modulus function. We discuss the question of sharpness of the results and mention some open problems.     

Raising approximation order of refinable vector by increasing multiplicity

An algorithm is presented for raising an approximation order of any given orthogonal multiscaling function with the dilation factor a. Let φ(x) = [φ1(x),φ2(x),…,φr(x)]T be an orthogonal multiscaling function with the dilation factor a and the approximation order m. We can construct a new orthogonal multiscaling function φnew(x) = [ φT(x). f3r 1(x),φr 2(x),…,φr s(x)}T with the approximation order m L(L ∈ Z ). In other words, we raise the approximation order of multiscaling function φ(x) by increasing its multiplicity. In addition, we discuss an especial setting. That is, if given an orthogonal multiscaling function φ(x) = [φ1 (x), φ2(x), …, φr(x)]T is symmetric, then the new orthogonal multiscaling function φnew(x) not only raise the approximation order but also preserve symmetry. Finally, some examples are given.     

Realizability of greedy algorithms

We discuss new models of an “affine” theory of gravity in multidimensional space-times with symmetric connections. We use and develop ideas of Weyl, Eddington, and Einstein, in particular, Einstein’s proposal to specify the space-time geometry by the use of the Hamilton principle. More specifically, the connection coefficients are determined using a “geometric” Lagrangian that is an arbitrary function of the generalized (nonsymmetric) Ricci curvature tensor (and, possibly, of other fundamental tensors) expressed in terms of the connection coefficients regarded as independent variables. Such a theory supplements the standard Einstein gravity with dark energy (the cosmological constant, in the first approximation), a neutral massive (or tachyonic) vector field (vecton), and massive (or tachyonic) scalar fields. These fields couple only to gravity and can generate dark matter and/or inflation. The new field masses (real or imaginary) have a geometric origin and must appear in any concrete model. The concrete choice of the geometric Lagrangian determines further details of the theory, for example, the nature of the vector and scalar fields that can describe massive particles, tachyons, or even “phantoms.” In “natural” geometric theories, which are discussed here, dark energy must also arise. We mainly focus on intricate relations between geometry and dynamics while only very briefly considering approximate cosmological models inspired by the geometric approach.     

Construction of exact solutions in two-field cosmological models

We construct a dark energy model with a phantom scalar field, a standard scalar field, and a polynomial potential inspired by string field theory. We find a two-parameter set of exact solutions of the Friedmann equations. We find a potential satisfying the conditions obtained from the string theory and such that at large times, some of the exact solutions correspond to the state parameter w_DE > −1 while the others correspond to w_DE < −1. We demonstrate that the superpotential method is very effective for seeking new exact solutions. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 155, No. 1, pp. 47–61, April, 2008.     

The argument principle and holomorphic extendibility to finite Riemann surfaces

Let M be a finite Riemann surface and let A(M) be the algebra of all continuous functions on M∪bM which are holomorphic on M. We prove that a continuous function Φ on bM extends to a function in A(M) if and only if for every f,g in A(M) such that fΦ+g≠0 on bM, the change of argument of fΦ+g is nonnegative.     

Stochastic evolution equations driven by Liouville fractional Brownian motion

Let H be a Hilbert space and E a Banach space. We set up a theory of stochastic integration of ℒ(H,E)-valued functions with respect to H-cylindrical Liouville fractional Brownian motion with arbitrary Hurst parameter 0 < β < 1. For 0 < β < ? we show that a function Φ: (0, T) → ℒ(H,E) is stochastically integrable with respect to an H-cylindrical Liouville fractional Brownian motion if and only if it is stochastically integrable with respect to an H-cylindrical fractional Brownian motion.     

Clifford martingale Φ-Equivalence betweenS(f) andf*

TheL ²-norm equivalence between a Clifford martingalef and its square functionS(f) plays an important role in the proof of theL ²-boundedness of Cauchy integral operators on Lipschitz graphs and the CliffordT(b) Theorem [2, 4]. This note generalises the result to the Φ-equivalence between the maximal functionf* andS(f), where Φ is a nondecreasing and continuous function fromIR ⁺ toIR ⁺, of the moderate growth Φ(2u)≤C ₁Φ(u) and satisfies Φ(0)=0.     

Augmented group systems and shifts of finite type

Let (G, χ, x) be a triple consisting of a finitely presented groupG, epimorphism χ:G →Z, and distinguished elementx ∈G such that χ(x)=1. Given a finite symmetric groupS _r, we construct a finite directed graph Γ that describes the set Φ _r of representations π: Ker χ →S _r as well as the mapping σ _x :Φ _r →Φ _r defined by (σ _x ϱ)(a) = ϱ(x ⁻¹ ax) for alla ∈ Ker χ. The pair (Φ _r ,σ _x has the structure of a shift of finite type, a well-known type of compact 0-dimensional dynamical system. We discuss basic properties and applications of therepresentation shift (Φ _r ,σ _x ), including applications to knot theory.
