A note on the perturbations of compact quantum metric spaces

In this short note,we consider the perturbation of compact quantum metric spaces.We first show that for two compact quantum metric spaces(A,P) and(B,Q) for which A and B are subspaces of an order-unit space C and P and Q are Lip-norms on A and B respectively,the quantum Gromov–Hausdorff distance between(A,P) and(B,Q) is small under certain conditions.Then some other perturbation results on compact quantum metric spaces derived from spectral triples are also given.     

The Spectral Properties of the Strongly Coupled Sturm Hamiltonian of Eventually Constant Type

We study the spectral properties of the Sturm Hamiltolian of eventually constant type, which includes the Fibonacci Hamiltonian. Let s be the Hausdorff dimension of the spectrum. For V > 20, we show that the restriction of the s-dimensional Hausdorff measure to the spectrum is a Gibbs type measure; the density of states measure is a Markov measure. Based on the fine structures of these measures, we show that both measures are exact dimensional; we obtain exact asymptotic behaviors for the optimal Hölder exponent and the Hausdorff dimension of the density of states measure and for the Hausdorff dimension of the spectrum. As a consequence, if the frequency is not silver number type, then for V big enough, we establish strict inequalities between these three spectral characteristics. We achieve them by introducing an auxiliary symbolic dynamical system and applying the thermodynamical and multifractal formalisms of almost additive potentials.     

On the traces of Sobolev functions on Lipschitz surfaces

Functions from the Sobolev spaces W _p ¹(Q) are considered on a unit cube Q ? R ⁿ , and the properties of their traces on Lipschitz surfaces are examined. The relation is found between the Hölder exponent α and the Hausdorff dimension of the family of poor k-dimensional planes Γ on which the traces do not belong to C ^α(Γ). For the corresponding families of poor k-dimensional Lipschitz surfaces, estimates in terms of p-modules are obtained.     

The dimensions of the divergence points of self-similar measures with weak separation condition

Let \(\mu \) be the self-similar measure supported on the self-similar set K with the weak separation condition, which is weaker than the open set condition. This article uses Hausdorff dimension and packing dimension to investigate the multifractal structure of several sets of divergence points of \(\mu \) in the iterated function system.     

Some dimensional results for a class of special homogeneous Moran sets

We construct a class of special homogeneous Moran sets, called {m_k}-quasi homogeneous Cantor sets, and discuss their Hausdorff dimensions. By adjusting the value of {m_k}_k?1, we constructively prove the intermediate value theorem for the homogeneous Moran set. Moreover, we obtain a sufficient condition for the Hausdorff dimension of ho- mogeneous Moran sets to assume the minimum value, which expands earlier works.     

Removable sets for homogeneous linear partial differential equations in Carnot groups

Let L be a homogeneous left-invariant differential operator on a Carnot group. Assume that both L and L^t are hypoelliptic. We study the removable sets for L-solutions. We give precise conditions in terms of the Carnot- Caratheodory Hausdorff dimension for the removability for L-solutions under several auxiliary integrability or regularity hypotheses. In some cases, our criteria are sharp on the level of the relevant Hausdorff measure. One of the main ingredients in our proof is the use of novel local self-similar tilings in Carnot groups.     

Affine embeddings of Cantor sets and dimension of <Emphasis Type="Italic">αβ</Emphasis>-sets

Let E,F ? R^d be two self-similar sets, and suppose that F can be affinely embedded into E. Under the assumption that E is dust-like and has a small Hausdorff dimension, we prove the logarithmic commensurability between the contraction ratios of E and F. This gives a partial affirmative answer to Conjecture 1.2 in [9]. The proof is based on our study of the boxcounting dimension of a class of multi-rotation invariant sets on the unit circle, including the αβ-sets initially studied by Engelking and Katznelson.     

Squares and their centers

We study the relationship between the size of two sets B, S ? R², when B contains either the whole boundary or the four vertices of a square with axes-parallel sides and center in every point of S. Size refers to cardinality, Hausdorff dimension, packing dimension, or upper or lower box dimension. Perhaps surprisingly, the results vary depending on the notion of size under consideration. For example, we construct a compact set B of Hausdorff dimension 1 which contains the boundary of an axes-parallel square with center in every point in [0, 1]², prove that such a B must have packing and lower box dimension at least 7/4, and show by example that this is sharp. For more general sets of centers, the answers for packing and box counting dimensions also differ. These problems are inspired by the analogous problems for circles that were investigated by Bourgain, Marstrand and Wolff, among others.     

Decomposition theorems for<Emphasis Type="Italic">Q</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Subscript> spaces

We study the Möbius invariant spacesQ _p andQ _{p, 0} of analytic functions. These scales of spaces include BMOA=Q₁, VMOA=Q_{1, 0} and the Dirichlet space=Q₀. Using the Bergman metric, we establish decomposition theorems for these spaces. We obtain also a fractional derivative characterization for bothQ _p andQ _{p, 0} .     

Hausdorff operators defined by measures on <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic linear spaces and their norms

For Hausdorff operator defined by a measure on p-adic linear space Q _p ⁿ we give the exact values for its norms in power type Morrey space,BMO(Q _p ⁿ ) and BLO(Q _p ⁿ ). Also we prove the sharp two-sided estimate for its norm in Herz space. These results generalize some previous results of the author.     

Ramsey numbers of cubes versus cliques

The cube graph Q _n is the skeleton of the n-dimensional cube. It is an n-regular graph on 2 ⁿ vertices. The Ramsey number r(Q _n ;K _s ) is the minimum N such that every graph of order N contains the cube graph Q _n or an independent set of order s. In 1983, Burr and Erd?s asked whether the simple lower bound r(Q _n ;K _s )≥(s?1)(2 ⁿ ?1)+1 is tight for s fixed and n sufficiently large. We make progress on this problem, obtaining the first upper bound which is within a constant factor of the lower bound.     

On reproducing kernel and density problems

This paper is devoted to study embedding and denseness properties of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, in the spaces C(X) and \(L^p(X,\mu )\), when X is a locally compact topological Hausdorff space or a locally compact topological Hausdorff abelian group. This results is closely related to strictly positive definiteness of the reproducing kernel.     

Inscribed Balls and Their Centers

A ball of maximal radius inscribed in a convex closed bounded set with a nonempty interior is considered in the class of uniformly convex Banach spaces. It is shown that, under certain conditions, the centers of inscribed balls form a uniformly continuous (as a set function) set-valued mapping in the Hausdorff metric. In a finite-dimensional space of dimension n, the set of centers of balls inscribed in polyhedra with a fixed collection of normals satisfies the Lipschitz condition with respect to sets in the Hausdorff metric. A Lipschitz continuous single-valued selector of the set of centers of balls inscribed in such polyhedra can be found by solving n + 1 linear programming problems.     

On the Hausdorff Dimension of Continuous Functions Belonging to Hölder and Besov Spaces on Fractal <Emphasis Type="Italic">d</Emphasis>-Sets

The Hausdorff dimension of the graphs of the functions in Hölder and Besov spaces (in this case with integrability p≥1) on fractal d-sets is studied. Denoting by s∈(0,1] the smoothness parameter, the sharp upper bound min{d+1?s,d/s} is obtained. In particular, when passing from d≥s to d<s there is a change of behaviour from d+1?s to d/s which implies that even highly nonsmooth functions defined on cubes in ? ⁿ have not so rough graphs when restricted to, say, rarefied fractals.     

An Analog of Titchmarsh’s Theorem for the Fourier–Walsh Transform

The space clos(X) of all nonempty closed subsets of an unbounded metric space X is considered. The space clos(X) is endowed with a metric in which a sequence of closed sets converges if and only if the distances from these sets to a fixed point θ are bounded and, for any r, the sequence of the unions of the given sets with the exterior balls of radius r centered at θ converges in the Hausdorff metric. The metric on clos(X) thus defined is not equivalent to the Hausdorff metric, whatever the initial metric space X. Conditions for a set to be closed, totally bounded, or compact in clos(X) are obtained; criteria for the bounded compactness and separability of clos(X) are given. The space of continuous maps from a compact space to clos(X) is considered; conditions for a set to be totally bounded in this space are found.     

The Tukey Order and Subsets of <Emphasis Type="Italic">ω</Emphasis><Subscript>1</Subscript>

One partially ordered set, Q, is a Tukey quotient of another, P, if there is a map ? : P → Q carrying cofinal sets of P to cofinal sets of Q. Two partial orders which are mutual Tukey quotients are said to be Tukey equivalent. Let X be a space and denote by \(\mathcal {K}(X)\) the set of compact subsets of X, ordered by inclusion. The principal object of this paper is to analyze the Tukey equivalence classes of \(\mathcal {K}(S)\) corresponding to various subspaces S of ω ₁, their Tukey invariants, and hence the Tukey relations between them. It is shown that ω ^ω is a strict Tukey quotient of \({\Sigma }(\omega ^{\omega _{1}})\) and thus we distinguish between two Tukey classes out of Isbell’s ten partially ordered sets from (Isbell, J. R.: J. London Math Society 4(2), 394–416, 1972). The relationships between Tukey equivalence classes of \(\mathcal {K}(S)\), where S is a subspace of ω ₁, and \(\mathcal {K}(M)\), where M is a separable metrizable space, are revealed. Applications are given to function spaces.     

Spectral multipliers on 2-step groups: topological versus homogeneous dimension

Let G be a 2-step stratified group of topological dimension d and homogeneous dimension Q. Let \({\mathcal{L}}\) be a homogeneous sub-Laplacian on G. By a theorem due to Christ and to Mauceri and Meda, an operator of the form \({F(\mathcal{L})}\) is of weak type (1, 1) and bounded on L ^p (G) for all p ∈ (1, ∞) whenever the multiplier F satisfies a scale-invariant smoothness condition of order s > Q/2. It is known that, for several 2-step groups and sub-Laplacians, the threshold Q/2 in the smoothness condition is not sharp and in many cases it is possible to push it down to d/2. Here we show that, for all 2-step groups and sub-Laplacians, the sharp threshold is strictly less than Q/2, but not less than d/2.     

Inner and outer approximation of convex sets using alignment

We show that there exists, for each closed bounded convex set C in the Euclidean plane with nonempty interior, a quadrangle Q having the following two properties. Its sides support C at the vertices of a rectangle r and at least three of the vertices of Q lie on the boundary of a rectangle R that is a dilation of r with ratio 2. We will prove that this implies that quadrangle Q is contained in rectangle R and that, consequently, the inner approximation r of C has an area of at least half the area of the outer approximation Q of C. The proof makes use of alignment or Schüttelung, an operation on convex sets.     

Two-weighted estimates for generalized fractional maximal operators on non-homogeneous spaces

Let μ be a nonnegative Borel measure on R ^d satisfying that μ(Q) ? l(Q)ⁿ for every cube Q ? R ⁿ , where l(Q) is the side length of the cube Q and 0 < n ? d.We study the class of pairs of weights related to the boundedness of radial maximal operators of fractional type associated to a Young function B in the context of non-homogeneous spaces related to the measure μ. Our results include two-weighted norm and weak type inequalities and pointwise estimates. Particularly, we give an improvement of a two-weighted result for certain fractional maximal operator proved in W.Wang, C. Tan, Z. Lou (2012).     

Weak and strong estimates for rough Hausdorff type operator defined on <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic linear space

For rough Hausdorff type operator defined on p-adic linear space Q _p ⁿ and its commutator with symbol from Lipschitz space, we give sufficient conditions of their boundedness from one Lorentz space into another.
