Generalized Kloosterman sum with primes

The work is devoted to generalized Kloosterman sums modulo a prime, i.e., trigonometric sums of the form \(\sum\nolimits_{p \leqslant x} {\exp \left\{ {2\pi i\left( {a\bar p + {F_k}\left( p \right)} \right)/q} \right\}} \) and \(\sum\nolimits_{n \leqslant x} {\mu \left( n \right)\exp \left\{ {2\pi i\left( {a\bar n + {F_k}\left( n \right)} \right)/q} \right\}} \), where q is a prime number, \(\left( {a,q} \right) = 1,m\bar m \equiv 1\left( {\bmod {\kern 1pt} q} \right)\), F _k (u) is a polynomial of degree k ≥ 2 with integer coefficients, and p runs over prime numbers. An upper estimate with a power saving is obtained for the absolute values of such sums for x ≥ q^1/2+ε.     

The prime-counting function and its analytic approximations

The paper describes a systematic computational study of the prime counting function π(x) and three of its analytic approximations: the logarithmic integral \({\text{li}}{\left( x \right)}: = {\int_0^x {\frac{{dt}}{{\log \,t}}} }\), \({\text{li}}{\left( x \right)} - \frac{1}{2}{\text{li}}{\left( {{\sqrt x }} \right)}\), and \(R{\left( x \right)}: = {\sum\nolimits_{k = 1}^\infty {{\mu {\left( k \right)}{\text{li}}{\left( {x^{{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 k}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} k}} } \right)}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\mu {\left( k \right)}{\text{li}}{\left( {x^{{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 k}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} k}} } \right)}} k}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} k} }\), where μ is the Möbius function. The results show that π(x)x) for 2≤x≤10¹⁴, and also seem to support several conjectures on the maximal and average errors of the three approximations, most importantly \({\left| {\pi {\left( x \right)} - {\text{li}}{\left( x \right)}} \right|} < x^{{1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}}\) and \( - \frac{2}{5}x^{{3 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {3 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} < {\int_2^x {{\left( {\pi {\left( u \right)} - {\text{li}}{\left( u \right)}} \right)}du < 0} }\) for all x>2. The paper concludes with a short discussion of prospects for further computational progress.     

On coherent families of uniformizing elements in some towers of Abelian extensions of local number fields

For a local number field K with the ring of integers \( {\mathcal{O}_K} \), the residue field \( {\mathbb{F}_q} \), and uniformizing π, we consider the Lubin–Tate tower \( {K_\pi } = \bigcap\limits_{n \geqslant 0} {{K_n}} \), where K _n = K(π _n ), f(π0) = 0, and f(π _n +1) = π _n . Here f(X) defines the endomorphism [π] of the Lubin–Tate group. If q ≠ 2, then for any formal power series \( g(X) \in {\mathcal{O}_K}\left[ {\left[ X \right]} \right] \) the following equality holds: \( \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {{\text{SP}}{{{K_n}} \mathord{\left/{\vphantom {{{K_n}} K}} \right.} K}} g\left( {{\pi_n}} \right) = - g(0) \). One has a similar equality in the case q = 2.     

On subordination of some analytic functions

We define V (α, β) (α < 1 and β > 1), the new subclass of analytic functions with bounded positive real part, \(V\left( {\alpha ,\beta } \right): = \left\{ {f \in A:\alpha < \operatorname{Re} \left\{ {{{\left( {\frac{z}{{f\left( z \right)}}} \right)}^2}f'\left( z \right)} \right\} < \beta } \right\}\), and study some properties of V (α, β). We also study the class U (γ) (γ > 0): \(u\left( \gamma \right): = \left\{ {f \in A:\left| {{{\left( {\frac{z}{{f\left( z \right)}}} \right)}^2}f'\left( z \right)} \right| - 1 < \gamma } \right\}\), where A is the class of normalized functions.     

Intrinsic Hölder Continuity of Harmonic Functions

We consider the stochastic differential equation (SDE) of the form

$$\begin{array}{@{}rcl@{}} \left\{\begin{array}{rcl} dX^ x(t) &=& \sigma(X(t-)) dL(t) \\ X^ x(0)&=&x,\quad x\in{\mathbb{R}}^ d, \end{array}\right. \end{array} $$

where \(\sigma :{\mathbb {R}}^ d\to {\mathbb {R}}^ d\) is globally Lipschitz continuous and L={L(t):t≥0} is a Lévy process. Under this condition on σ it is well known that the above problem has a unique solution X. Let \((\mathcal {P}_{t})_{t\ge 0}\) be the Markovian semigroup associated to X defined by \(\left ({\mathcal {P}}_{t} f\right ) (x) := \mathbb {E} \left [ f(X^ x(t))\right ]\), t≥0, \(x\in {\mathbb {R}}^{d}\), \(f\in \mathcal {B}_{b}({\mathbb {R}}^{d})\). Let B be a pseudo–differential operator characterized by its symbol q. Fix \(\rho \in \mathbb {R}\). In this article we investigate under which conditions on σ, L and q there exist two constants γ>0 and C>0 such that

$$\left| B {\mathcal{P}}_{t} u \right|_{H^{\rho}_{2}} \le C \, t^{-\gamma} \,\left| u \right|_{H^{\rho}_{2}}, \quad \forall u \in {H^{\rho}_{2}}(\mathbb{R}^{d} ),\, t>0. $$

     

Some Berezin Number Inequalities for Operator Matrices

The Berezin symbol à of an operator A acting on the reproducing kernel Hilbert space H = H(Ω) over some (nonempty) set is defined by \(\tilde A(\lambda ) = \left\langle {A\hat k_\lambda ,\hat k_\lambda } \right\rangle \), λ ∈ Ω, where \(\hat k_\lambda = k_\lambda /\left\| {k_\lambda } \right\|\) is the normalized reproducing kernel of H. The Berezin number of the operator A is defined by \(ber(A) = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{\lambda \in \Omega } \left| {\tilde A(\lambda )} \right| = \mathop {\sup }\limits_{\lambda \in \Omega } \left| {\left\langle {A\hat k_\lambda ,\hat k_\lambda } \right\rangle } \right|\). Moreover, ber(A) ? w(A) (numerical radius). We present some Berezin number inequalities. Among other inequalities, it is shown that if \(T = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} A & B \\ C & D \\ \end{array} } \right] \in \mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H}(\Omega _1 ) \oplus \mathcal{H}(\Omega _2 ))\), then

$$ber(T) \leqslant \frac{1}{2}(ber(A) + ber(D)) + \frac{1}{2}\sqrt {(ber(A) - ber(D))^2 + \left( {\left\| B \right\| + \left\| C \right\|} \right)^2 } .$$

     

Exact distribution of MLE of covariance matrix in a GMANOVA-MANOVA model

For a GMANOVA-MANOVA model with normal error: Y = XB1Z1 T B2Z2 T E, E- Nq×n(0, In (?) ∑), the present paper is devoted to the study of distribution of MLE, ∑, of covariance matrix ∑. The main results obtained are stated as follows: (1) When rk(Z) -rk(Z2) ≥ q-rk(X), the exact distribution of ∑ is derived, where z = (Z1,Z2), rk(A) denotes the rank of matrix A. (2) The exact distribution of |∑| is gained. (3) It is proved that ntr{[S-1 - ∑-1XM(MTXT∑-1XM)-1MTXT∑-1]∑}has X2(q_rk(x))(n-rk(z2)) distribution, where M is the matrix whose columns are the standardized orthogonal eigenvectors corresponding to the nonzero eigenvalues of XT∑-1X.     

Sharp Estimates for Mean Square Approximations of Classes of Differentiable Periodic Functions by Shift Spaces

Let L₂ be the space of 2π-periodic square-summable functions and E(f, X)₂ be the best approximation of f by the space X in L₂. For n ∈ ? and B ∈ L₂, let \({{\Bbb S}_{B,n}}\) be the space of functions s of the form \(s\left( x \right) = \sum\limits_{j = 0}^{2n - 1} {{\beta _j}B\left( {x - \frac{{j\pi }}{n}} \right)} \). This paper describes all spaces \({{\Bbb S}_{B,n}}\) that satisfy the exact inequality \(E{\left( {f,{S_{B,n}}} \right)_2} \leqslant \frac{1}{{^{{n^r}}}}\parallel {f^{\left( r \right)}}{\parallel _2}\). (2n–1)-dimensional subspaces fulfilling the same estimate are specified. Well-known inequalities are for approximation by trigonometric polynomials and splines obtained as special cases.     

On the application of linear positive operators for approximation of functions

For the linear positive Korovkin operator \(f\left( x \right) \to {t_n}\left( {f;x} \right) = \frac{1}{\pi }\int_{ - \pi }^\pi {f\left( {x + t} \right)E\left( t \right)dt} \), where E(x) is the Egervary–Szász polynomial and the corresponding interpolation mean \({t_{n,N}}\left( {f;x} \right) = \frac{1}{N}\sum\limits_{k = - N}^{N - 1} {{E_n}\left( {x - \frac{{\pi k}}{N}} \right)f\left( {\frac{{\pi k}}{N}} \right)} \), the Jackson-type inequalities \(\left\| {{t_{n,N}}\left( {f;x} \right) - f\left( x \right)} \right\| \leqslant \left( {1 + \pi } \right){\omega _f}\left( {\frac{1}{n}} \right),\left\| {{t_{n,N}}\left( {f;x} \right) - f\left( x \right)} \right\| \leqslant 2{\omega _f}\left( {\frac{\pi }{{n + 1}}} \right)\), where ωf (x) denotes the modulus of continuity, are proved for N > n/2. For ωf (x) ≤ Mx, the inequality \(\left\| {{t_{n,N}}\left( {f;x} \right) - f\left( x \right)} \right\| \leqslant \frac{{\pi M}}{{n + 1}}\). is established. As a consequence, an elementary derivation of an asymptotically sharp estimate of the Kolmogorov width of a compact set of functions satisfying the Lipschitz condition is obtained.     

Weak Uniform Normal Structure and Fixed Points of Asymptotically Regular Semigroups

Let X be a Banach space with a weak uniform normal structure and C a non–empty convexweakly compact subset of X. Under some suitable restriction, we prove that every asymptoticallyregular semigroup T = {T(t) : t ∈¸ S} of selfmappings on C satisfying

${\mathop {\lim \inf }\limits_{S \mathrel\backepsilon t \to \infty } }{\left| {{\left\| {T(t)} \right\|}} \right|} < {\text{WCS}}(X)$

has a common fixed point, where WCS(X) is the weakly convergent sequence coefficient of X, and\({\left| {{\left\| {T(t)} \right\|}} \right|}\) is the exact Lipschitz constant of T(t).     

Real-variable characterizations of anisotropic product Musielak-Orlicz Hardy spaces

Let A :=(A_1, A_2) be a pair of expansive dilations and φ : R~n×R~m×[0, ∞) → [0, ∞) an anisotropic product Musielak-Orlicz function. In this article, we introduce the anisotropic product Musielak-Orlicz Hardy space H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) via the anisotropic Lusin-area function and establish its atomic characterization, the g-function characterization, the g_λ~*-function characterization and the discrete wavelet characterization via first giving out an anisotropic product Peetre inequality of Musielak-Orlicz type. Moreover, we prove that finite atomic decomposition norm on a dense subspace of H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) is equivalent to the standard infinite atomic decomposition norm. As an application, we show that, for a given admissible triplet(φ, q, s), if T is a sublinear operator and maps all(φ, q, s)-atoms into uniformly bounded elements of some quasi-Banach spaces B, then T uniquely extends to a bounded sublinear operator from H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) to B. Another application is that we obtain the boundedness of anisotropic product singular integral operators from H~φ_A(R~n× R~m) to L~φ(R~n× R~m)and from H~φ_A(R~n×R~m) to itself, whose kernels are adapted to the action of A. The results of this article essentially extend the existing results for weighted product Hardy spaces on R~n× R~m and are new even for classical product Orlicz-Hardy spaces.     

Markoff–Lagrange spectrum and extremal numbers

Let \( \gamma = \frac{1}{2}\left( {1 + \sqrt {5} } \right) \) denote the golden ratio. H. Davenport and W. M. Schmidt showed in 1969 that, for each non-quadratic irrational real number ξ, there exists a constant c > 0 with the property that, for arbitrarily large values of X, the inequalities\( \left| {{x_0}} \right| \leqslant X,\,\,\,\left| {{x_0}\xi - {x_1}} \right| \leqslant c{X^{{{{ - 1}} \left/ {\gamma } \right.}}}\,\,\,{\text{and}}\,\,\,\left| {{x_0}{\xi^2} - {x_2}} \right| \leqslant c{X^{{{{ - 1}} \left/ {\gamma } \right.}}} \)admit no non-zero solution \( \left( {{x_0},{x_1},{x_2}} \right) \in {\mathbb{Z}^3} \). Their result is best possible in the sense that, conversely, there are countably many non-quadratic irrational real numbers ξ such that, for a larger value of c, the same inequalities admit a non-zero integer solution for each X ≥ 1. Such extremal numbers are transcendental and their set is stable under the action of \( {\text{G}}{{\text{L}}_2}\left( \mathbb{Z} \right) \) on \( \mathbb{R}\backslash \mathbb{Q} \) by linear fractional transformations. In this paper, it is shown that there exist extremal numbers ξ for which the Lagrange constant ν(ξ) = liminf _q→∞ q||qξ|| is \( \frac{1}{3} \), the largest possible value for a non-quadratic number, and that there is a natural bijection between the \( {\text{G}}{{\text{L}}_2}\left( \mathbb{Z} \right) \)-equivalence classes of such numbers and the non-trivial solutions of Markoff’s equation.     

EKR Sets for Large <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">r</Emphasis>

Let \(\mathcal {A}\subset \left( {\begin{array}{c}[n]\\ r\end{array}}\right) \) be a compressed, intersecting family and let \(X\subset [n]\). Let \(\mathcal {A}(X)=\{A\in \mathcal {A}:A\cap X\ne \emptyset \}\) and \(\mathcal {S}_{n,r}=\left( {\begin{array}{c}[n]\\ r\end{array}}\right) (\{1\})\). Motivated by the Erd?s–Ko–Rado theorem, Borg asked for which \(X\subset [2,n]\) do we have \(|\mathcal {A}(X)|\le |\mathcal {S}_{n,r}(X)|\) for all compressed, intersecting families \(\mathcal {A}\)? We call X that satisfy this property EKR. Borg classified EKR sets X such that \(|X|\ge r\). Barber classified X, with \(|X|\le r\), such that X is EKR for sufficiently large n, and asked how large n must be. We prove n is sufficiently large when n grows quadratically in r. In the case where \(\mathcal {A}\) has a maximal element, we sharpen this bound to \(n>\varphi ^{2}r\) implies \(|\mathcal {A}(X)|\le |\mathcal {S}_{n,r}(X)|\). We conclude by giving a generating function that speeds up computation of \(|\mathcal {A}(X)|\) in comparison with the naïve methods.     

Hrmander Type Theorem for Fourier Multipliers with Optimal Smoothness on Hardy Spaces of Arbitrary Number of Parameters

The main purpose of this paper is to establish the Hormander-Mihlin type theorem for Fourier multipliers with optimal smoothness on k-parameter Hardy spaces for k≥ 3 using the multiparameter Littlewood-Paley theory. For the sake of convenience and simplicity, we only consider the case k = 3, and the method works for all the cases k≥ 3:■where x =(x_1,x_2,x_3)∈R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3) and ξ =(ξ_1,ξ_2,ξ_3)∈R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3). One of our main results is the following:Assume that m(ξ) is a function on R~(n_1+n_2+n_3) satisfying ■ with s_i n_i(1/p-1/2) for 1≤i≤3. Then T_m is bounded from H~p(R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3) to H~p(R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)×R~(n_3)for all 0 p≤1 and ■ Moreover, the smoothness assumption on s_i for 1≤i≤3 is optimal. Here we have used the notations m_(j,k,l)(ξ)=m(2~jξ_1,2~kξ_2,2~lξ_3)Ψ(ξ_1)Ψ(ξ_2)Ψ(ξ_3) and Ψ(ξ_i) is a suitable cut-off function on R~(n_i) for1≤i≤3, and W~(s_1,s_2,s_3) is a three-parameter Sobolev space on R~(n_1)×R~(n_2)× R~(n_3).Because the Fefferman criterion breaks down in three parameters or more, we consider the L~p boundedness of the Littlewood-Paley square function of T_mf to establish its boundedness on the multi-parameter Hardy spaces.     

Determination of cusp forms by central values of Rankin–Selberg <Emphasis Type="BoldItalic">L</Emphasis>-functions<Superscript>*</Superscript>

Let f be a fixed holomorphic Hecke eigen cusp form of weight k for \( SL\left( {2,{\mathbb Z}} \right) \), and let \( {\mathcal U} = \left\{ {{u_j}:j \geqslant 1} \right\} \) be an orthonormal basis of Hecke–Maass cusp forms for \( SL\left( {2,{\mathbb Z}} \right) \). We prove an asymptotic formula for the twisted first moment of the Rankin–Selberg L-functions \( L\left( {s,f \otimes {u_j}} \right) \) at \( s = \frac{1}{2} \) as u _j runs over \( {\mathcal U} \). It follows that f is uniquely determined by the central values of the family of Rankin–Selberg L-functions \( \left\{ {L\left( {s,f \otimes {u_j}} \right):{u_j} \in {\mathcal U}} \right\} \).     

Disintegration of positive isometric group representations on $$\varvec{\mathrm {L}^{p}}$$-spaces

Let G be a Polish locally compact group acting on a Polish space \({{X}}\) with a G-invariant probability measure \(\mu \). We factorize the integral with respect to \(\mu \) in terms of the integrals with respect to the ergodic measures on X, and show that \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\mu )\) (\(1\le p<\infty \)) is G-equivariantly isometrically lattice isomorphic to an \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integral of the spaces \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\lambda )\), where \(\lambda \) ranges over the ergodic measures on X. This yields a disintegration of the canonical representation of G as isometric lattice automorphisms of \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}},\mu )\) as an \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integral of order indecomposable representations. If \(({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) is a probability space, and, for some \(1\le q<\infty \), G acts in a strongly continuous manner on \(\mathrm {L}^{q}({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) as isometric lattice automorphisms that leave the constants fixed, then G acts on \(\mathrm {L}^{p}({{X}}^{\prime },\mu ^{\prime })\) in a similar fashion for all \(1\le p<\infty \). Moreover, there exists an alternative model in which these representations originate from a continuous action of G on a compact Hausdorff space. If \(({{X}}^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) is separable, the representation of G on \(\mathrm {L}^p(X^\prime ,\mu ^\prime )\) can then be disintegrated into order indecomposable representations. The notions of \({\mathrm {L}^p}\)-direct integrals of Banach spaces and representations that are developed extend those in the literature.     

On behavior of Fourier coefficients by Walsh system

The paper proves that for any ε > 0 there exists ameasurable set E ? [0, 1] with measure |E| > 1 ? ε such that for each f ∈ L¹[0, 1] there is a function \(\tilde f \in {L^1}\left[ {0,1} \right]\) coinciding with f on E whose Fourier-Walsh series converges to \(\tilde f\) in L¹[0, 1]-norm, and the sequence \(\left\{ {\left| {{c_k}\left( {\tilde f} \right)} \right|} \right\}_{n = 0}^\infty \) is monotonically decreasing, where \(\left\{ {{c_k}\left( {\tilde f} \right)} \right\}\) is the sequence of Fourier-Walsh coefficients of \(\left\{ {\left| {{c_k}\left( {\tilde f} \right)} \right|} \right\}_{n = 0}^\infty \).     

On the exceptional sets in Sylvester expansions*

For any x ?? (0, 1], let the series \( {\sum}_{n=1}^{\infty }1/{d}_n(x) \) be the Sylvester expansion of x, where {d _j (x),?j?≥?1} is a sequence of positive integers satisfying d₁(x)?≥?2 and d_j?+?1(x)?≥?d _j (x)(d _j (x)???1)?+?1 for j?≥?1. Suppose ? : ? → ?⁺ is a function satisfying ?(n+1) – ? (n) → ∞ as n → ∞. In this paper, we consider the set

$$ E\left(\phi \right)=\left\{x\kern0.5em \in \left(0,1\right]:\kern0.5em \underset{n\to \infty }{\lim}\frac{\log {d}_n(x)-{\sum}_{j=1}^{n-1}\log {d}_j(x)}{\phi (n)}=1\right\} $$

and quantify the size of the set in the sense of Hausdorff dimension. As applications, for any β > 1 and γ > 0, we get the Hausdorff dimension of the set \( \left\{x\in \kern1em \left(0,1\right]:\kern0.5em {\lim}_{n\to \infty}\left(\log {d}_n(x)-{\sum}_{j=1}^{n-1}\log {d}_j(x)\right)/{n}^{\beta }=\upgamma \right\}, \) and for any τ > 1 and η > 0, we get a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension of the set \( \left\{x\kern0.5em \in \kern0.5em \left(0,1\right]:\kern1em {\lim}_{n\to \infty}\left(\log {d}_n(x)-{\sum}_{j=1}^{n-1}\log {d}_j(x)\right)/{\tau}^n=\eta \right\}. \)     

Asymptotic distribution of singular values of powers of random matrices

Let x be a complex random variable such that \( {\mathbf{E}}x = 0,\,{\mathbf{E}}{\left| x \right|^2} = 1 \), and \( {\mathbf{E}}{\left| x \right|^4} < \infty \). Let \( {x_{ij}},i,j \in \left\{ {1,2, \ldots } \right\} \), be independent copies of x. Let \( {\mathbf{X}} = \left( {{N^{ - 1/2}}{x_{ij}}} \right) \), 1≤i,j≤N, be a random matrix. Writing X ^? for the adjoint matrix of X, consider the product X ^m X ^?m with some m ∈{1,2,...}. The matrix X ^m X ^?m is Hermitian positive semidefinite. Let λ₁,λ₂,...,λ _N be eigenvalues of X ^m X ^?m (or squared singular values of the matrix X ^m ). In this paper, we find the asymptotic distribution function \( {G^{(m)}}(x) = {\lim_{N \to \infty }}{\mathbf{E}}F_N^{(m)}(x) \) of the empirical distribution function \( F_N^{(m)}(x) = {N^{ - 1}}\sum\nolimits_{k = 1}^N {\mathbb{I}\left\{ {{\lambda_k} \leqslant x} \right\}} \), where \( \mathbb{I}\left\{ A \right\} \) stands for the indicator function of an event A. With m=1, our result turns to a well-known result of Marchenko and Pastur [V. Marchenko and L. Pastur, The eigenvalue distribution in some ensembles of random matrices, Math. USSR Sb., 1:457–483, 1967].
