λ-Divergence of the Fourier Series of Continuous Functions of Several Variables

In this paper, we consider the behavior of rectangular partial sums of the Fourier series of continuous functions of several variables with respect to the trigonometric system. The Fourier series is called -convergent if the limit of rectangular partial sums over all indices for which for all j and k exists. In the space of arbitrary even dimension 2m we construct an example of a continuous function with an estimate of the modulus of continuity such that its Fourier series is -divergent everywhere for any .

The First-Order Nonholonomic Connections with the Galilean Groups of Local Transformations. II

In the canonical smooth fiber bundles endowed with the metric tensor fields of relevant structure, we consider natural representations of the Galilean groups and construct -invariant generalizations of differentiable connections. In both regular and special cases of the representations of the relevant groups , we found all the affine nonholonomic -, -, and -connections of the first order (see [1]–[3]) possessing the local Lie groups of transformations and also described the respective -invariant planar connections.     

Lattices of interpretability types of varieties

Let be the set of all primes, the field of all algebraic numbers, and Z the set of square-free natural numbers. We consider partially ordered sets of interpretability types such as , and , where AD is a variety of -divisible Abelian groups with unique taking of the pth root _p(x) for every p , is a variety of -modules over a normal field , contained in , and G_n is a variety of n-groupoids defined by a cyclic permutation (12 ...n). We prove that , and are distributive lattices, with and where ub and ub_f are lattices (w.r.t. inclusion) of all subsets of the set and of finite subsets of , respectively.Deceased.__________Translated from Algebra i Logika, Vol. 44, No. 2, pp. 198–210, March–April, 2005.     

Majorants and Extreme Points of Unit Balls in Bernstein Spaces

The Bernstein space B ^p () (1 $$ " align="middle" border="0"> 0) is the set of functions from L ^p( ) having Fourier transforms (in the sense of generalized functions) with supports in the compact segment [- , ]. Every function f has an analytic continuation onto the complex plane, which is an entire function of exponential type . The spaces B ^p ()\, are conjugate Banach spaces. Therefore, the closed unit ball in B ^p () has a rich set of extreme (boundary) points: coincides with the weakly ^* closed convex hull of its extreme points. Since, for 1< p< , B ^p () is a uniformly convex space, only the balls and have nontrivially arranged sets of extreme points. In this paper, in terms of zeros of entire functions, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions of extremeness for functions from .

On the Irreducibility of Commuting Varieties Associated with Involutions of Simple Lie Algebras

Let be a reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and an arbitrary -grading. We consider the variety , which is called the commuting variety associated with the -grading. Earlier it was proved by the author that is irreducible, if the -grading is of maximal rank. Now we show that is irreducible for and (E₆,F₄). In the case of symmetric pairs of rank one, we show that the number of irreducible components of is equal to that of nonzero non--regular nilpotent G ₀-orbits in . We also discuss a general problem of the irreducibility of commuting varieties.     

On Complete Arcs Arising from Plane Curves

We point out an interplay between -Frobenius non-classical plane curves and complete -arcs in . A typical example that shows how this works is the one concerning an Hermitian curve. We present some other examples here which give rise to the existence of new complete -arcs with parameters and being a power of the characteristic. In addition, for q a square, new complete -arcs with either and or and are constructed by using certain reducible plane curves.

Determinants of Matrices Associated with Incidence Functions on Posets

Let S = x ₁,...,x _n} be a finite subset of a partially ordered set P. Let f be an incidence function of P. Let denote the n × n matrix having f evaluated at the meet of x _i and x _j as its i, j-entry and denote the n × n matrix having f evaluated at the join of x _i and x _j as its i, j-entry. The set S is said to be meet-closed if for all 1 i, j n. In this paper we get explicit combinatorial formulas for the determinants of matrices and on any meet-closed set S. We also obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the matrices and on any meet-closed set S to be nonsingular. Finally, we give some number-theoretic applications.

For each i=1, . . . , m, there is a class of subsets M _i ^j of ^Tn . Assume that for each i=1, . . . , m, that M _i ^j is nonempty and closed for all i, j, and that there exists a real number B(i, j) such that and its jth component _{xjB(i, j)} imply . Then, there exists a partition of {1, . . . , n} such that for all i and We prove this theorem based upon a generalization of a well-known theorem of Birkhoff and von Neumann. Moreover, we apply this theorem to the fair allocation problem of indivisible objects with money and obtain an existence theorem.
