Self-correspondences of the generic fibre of Lefschetz pencils and the Leray filtration

In this paper we give a detailed analysis of the interaction between homological self-correspondences of the general fibre Y/k(t) of the Lefschetz fibration of a Lefschetz pencil on a smooth projective variety X/k, and the Leray filtration of ρ. We derive the result that, if the standard conjecture B(Y) holds, then the operator is algebraic, where is defined as the inverse of L on LPn−1(X) and 0 on LkPj(X) for (1,n−1)≠(k,j); in the course of our proof we see that, under the above assumption, the Künneth projectors for i≠n−1,n,n+1 are algebraic.     

Embeddings between weak Orlicz martingale spaces

Let Φ be an increasing and convex function on [0,∞) with Φ(0)=0 satisfying that for any α>0, there exists a positive constant Cα such that Φ(αt)?CαΦ(t), t>0. Let wLΦ denote the corresponding weak Orlicz space. We obtain some embeddings between vector-valued weak Orlicz martingale spaces by establishing the wLΦ-inequalities for martingale transform operators with operator-valued multiplying sequences. These embeddings are closely related to the geometric properties of the underlying Banach space. In particular, for any scalar valued martingale f=(fn)_n?1, we claim that

Explicit formulas for Laplace transforms of certain functionals of some time inhomogeneous diffusions

We consider a process given by the SDE , t∈[0,T), with initial condition , where T∈(0,∞], α∈R, (Bt)_t∈[0,T) is a standard Wiener process, b:[0,T)→R?{0} and σ:[0,T)→(0,∞) are continuously differentiable functions. Assuming , t∈[0,T), with some K∈R, we derive an explicit formula for the joint Laplace transform of and for all t∈[0,T) and for all α∈R. Our motivation is that the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of α can be expressed in terms of these random variables. As an application, we show that in case of α=K, K≠0,
