Topological structure of solution sets for impulsive differential inclusions in Fréchet spaces

In this paper, we consider the existence of solutions as well as the topological and geometric structure of solution sets for first-order impulsive differential inclusions in some Fréchet spaces. Both the initial and terminal problems are considered. Using ingredients from topology and homology, the topological structures of solution sets (closedness and compactness) as well as some geometric properties (contractibility, acyclicity, AR and R_δ) are investigated. Some of our existence results are obtained via the method of taking the inverse system limit on noncompact intervals.     

Almost periodicity in Fréchet spaces

In this paper we deal with almost periodic functions with values in a Fréchet space. We apply obtained results to prove the existence of solutions of the initial value problem as well as the Volterra integral equation in this class of functions. We also introduce and investigate asymptotically almost periodic functions with values in a Fréchet space.     

Series expansions in Fréchet spaces and their duals, construction of Fréchet frames

Frames for Fréchet spaces X_F with respect to Fréchet sequence spaces Θ_F are studied, and conditions implying series expansions in X_F and are determined. If is a Θ₀-frame for X₀ and Θ_F (resp. X_F) is given, we construct a sequence {X_s}_s∈N0, X_s⊂X_s−1, s∈N, (resp. {Θ_s}_s∈N0, Θ_s⊂Θ_s−1, s∈N), so that is a pre-F-frame or F-frame for X_F with respect to Θ_F under different assumptions given on X₀, Θ₀ and Θ_F (resp. X_F).     

Continuity of mappings between Fréchet spaces

For all linear and many nonlinear operators between Fréchet spaces, several continuity results are established. Especially, a new closed graph theorem is given.     

Workshop lecture on products of Fréchet spaces

The general question, “When is the product of Fréchet spaces Fréchet?” really depends on the questions of when a product of α₄ Fréchet spaces (also known as strongly Fréchet or countably bisequential spaces) is α₄, and when it is Fréchet. Two subclasses of the class of strongly Fréchet spaces shed much light on these questions. These are the class of α₃ Fréchet spaces and its subclass of ℵ₀-bisequential spaces. The latter is closed under countable products, the former not even under finite products. A number of fundamental results and open problems are recalled, some further highlighting the difference between being α₃ and Fréchet and being ℵ₀-bisequential.     

An inverse function theorem in Fréchet spaces

I present an inverse function theorem for differentiable maps between Fréchet spaces which contains the classical theorem of Nash and Moser as a particular case. In contrast to the latter, the proof does not rely on the Newton iteration procedure, but on Lebesgue's dominated convergence theorem and Ekeland's variational principle. As a consequence, the assumptions are substantially weakened: the map F to be inverted is not required to be C², or even C¹, or even Fréchet-differentiable.     

Existence of hypercyclic polynomials on complex Fréchet spaces

We show that every complex separable infinite dimensional Fréchet space admits hypercyclic polynomials of any degree. This result complements the analogous one for the linear case, due to Ansari, Bernal, Bonet and Peris.     

Hypercyclic convolution operators on Fréchet spaces of analytic functions

A result of Godefroy and Shapiro states that the convolution operators on the space of entire functions on Cn, which are not multiples of identity, are hypercyclic. Analogues of this result have appeared for some spaces of holomorphic functions on a Banach space. In this work, we define the space holomorphic functions associated to a sequence of spaces of polynomials and determine conditions on this sequence that assure hypercyclicity of convolution operators. Some known results come out as particular cases of this setting. We also consider holomorphic functions associated to minimal ideals of polynomials and to polynomials of the Schatten-von Neumann class.     

Shrinking and boundedly complete Schauder frames in Fréchet spaces

We study Schauder frames in Fréchet spaces and their duals, as well as perturbation results. We define shrinking and boundedly complete Schauder frames on a locally convex space, study the duality of these two concepts and their relation with the reflexivity of the space. We characterize when an unconditional Schauder frame is shrinking or boundedly complete in terms of properties of the space. Several examples of concrete Schauder frames in function spaces are also presented.     

Spaces of N-homogeneous polynomials between Fréchet spaces

Properties of the Nachbin-ported topology on spaces of N-homogeneous polynomials between Fréchet spaces are investigated by applying results on derived functors.     

The density condition and distinguishedness for weighted Fréchet spaces of holomorphic functions

We consider weighted Fréchet spaces of holomorphic functions which are defined as countable intersections of weighted Banach spaces of type H^∞. We study when these spaces have Stefan Heinrich's density condition and when they are distinguished.     

Reflexivity and sets of Fréchet subdifferentiability

We show that the sets of Fréchet subdifferentiability of Lipschitz functions on a Banach space are Borel if and only if is reflexive. This answers a question of L. Zajíček.

     

Examples of non-archimedean Fréchet spaces without nuclear Köthe quotients

Let K be a spherically complete non-archimedean valued field. We prove that the dual space l_∞ of the Banach space c₀ has a total strongly non-norming subspace M. Using this subspace M we construct a non-normable Fréchet space F of countable type with a continuous norm such that its strong dual is a strict LB-space. Next we show that F has no nuclear Köthe quotient.     

Lower bounds for the cardinality of minimal blocking sets in projective spaces

In this paper new lower bounds for the cardinality of minimal m-blocking sets are determined. Let r₂(q) be the number such that q+r₂(q)+1 is the cardinality of the smallest non-trivial line-blocking set in a plane of order q. If B is a minimal m-blocking set in PG(n,q) that contains at most q^m+q^m−1+…+q+1+r₂(q)·(∑_i=2m−n′^m−1qⁱ) points for an integer n′ satisfying mn′2m, then the dimension of B is at most n′. If the dimension of B is n′, then the following holds. The cardinality of B equals q^m+q^m−1+…+q+1+r₂(q)(∑_i=2m−n′^m−1qⁱ). For n′=m the set B is an m-dimensional subspace and for n′=m+1 the set B is a cone with an (m−2)-dimensional vertex over a non-trivial line-blocking set of cardinality q+r₂(q)+1 in a plane skew to the vertex. This result is due to Heim (Mitt. Math. Semin. Giessen 226 (1996), 4–82). For n′>m+1 and q not a prime the number q is a square and for q16 the set B is a Baer cone. If q is odd and |B|<q^m+q^m−1+…+q+1+r₂(q)(q^m−1+q^m−2), it follows from this result that the subspace generated by B has dimension at most m+1. Furthermore we prove that in this case, if , then B is an m-dimensional subspace or a cone with an (m−2)-dimensional vertex over a non-trivial line-blocking set of cardinality q+r₂(q)+1 in a plane skew to the vertex. For q=p^3h, p7 and q not a square we show this assertion for |B|q^m+q^m−1+…+q+1+q^2/3·(q^m−1+…+1).     

Fixed point properties for semigroup of nonexpansive mappings on Fréchet spaces

In this paper, we shall establish a fixed point property on Fréchet spaces for left reversible semitopological semigroups generalizing some classical results.     

Existence of Bade functionals for complete Boolean algebras of projections in Fréchet spaces

A classical result of W. Bade states that if is any complete Boolean algebra of projections in an arbitrary Banach space then, for every there exists an element (called a Bade functional for with respect to in the dual space , with the following two properties: (i) is non-negative on and, (ii) whenever satisfies It is shown that a Fréchet space has this property if and only if it does not contain an isomorphic copy of the sequence space

     

Fréchet differentiability of solution mappings for semilinear second order evolution equations

In this paper we establish the strong Fréchet differentiability of maps from the set of initial values and forcing terms into the set of solutions for semilinear second order evolution equations. Also, under the weaker conditions of nonlinear terms we establish the strong Gâteaux differentiability of the solution maps. An application of results to semilinear strongly damped wave equations is given.
