On Decomposition in Exponential Orlicz Spaces

Various characterizations are given of the exponential Orlicz space L and the Orlicz‐Lorentz space L. By way of application we give a simple proof of the celebrated theorem of Brézis and Wainger concerning a limiting case of a Sobolev imbedding theorem.     

On invariant measures of extensions of Markov transition functions

By using the LITTLEWOOD matrices A_2n we generalize CLARKSON' S inequalities, or equivalently, we determine the norms ‖A_2n: l(L_P) → l(L_P)‖ completely. The result is compared with the norms ‖A_2n: l → l‖, which are calculated implicitly in PIETSCH [6].     

The Calderón approach to an elliptic boundary problem

We consider a boundary problem for an elliptic system in a bounded region Ω ? ?ⁿ and where the spectral parameter is multiplied by a discontinuous weight function ω (x) = diag(ω₁(x), …, ω_N (x)). The problem is considered under limited smoothness assumptions and under an ellipticity with parameter condition. Recently, this problem was studied under the assumption that the ω_j (x)^–1 are essentially bounded in Ω. In this paper we suppose that ω (x) vanishes identically in a proper subregion Ω of Ω and that the ω_j (x)^–1 are essentially bounded in . Then by using methods which are a variant of those used in constructing the Calderón projectors for the boundary Γ of Ω, we shall derive results here which will enable us in a subsequent work to apply the ideas of Calderón to develop the spectral theory associated with the problem under consideration here (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

On a Relation between Intrinsic and Extrinsic Dirichlet Forms for Interacting Particle Systems

In this paper we extend the result obtained in [AKR98] (see also [AKR96a]) on the representation of the intrinsic pre–Dirichlet form ℰ^Γ of the Poisson measure π_σ in terms of the extrinsic one ℰ^P. More precisely, replacing π_σ by a Gibbs measure μ on the configuration space Γ_X we derive a relation between the intrinsic prend–Dirichlet form ℰ^Γ_μ of the measure μ and the extrinsic one ℰ^P. As a consequence we prove the closability of ℰ^Γ_μ on L²(Γ_X, μ) under very general assumptions on the interaction potential of the Gibbs measures μ.     

Absolutely L – Summing Norms of Diagonal Operators in lr and Limit Orders of Lexp – Summing Operators

We compute the absolutely L – summing norms of the diagonal operators acting on l_r (1 ≤ q, r < ∞) and determine the limit orders of the absolutely L_exp – summing operators.     

Selbstadjungierte Relations-Erweiterungen für eine Klasse von symmetrischen Differential-Funktional-Operatoren

Symmetry- and selfadjointness-conditions are derived for ordinary differential-integral-interface operators under integral-interface conditions. Criteria for the existence of selfadjoint extensions in L×L are given. These extensions are characterized in a constructive way. The main tools are some extension-theorems for linear relations (subspaces), wich are developed in section 2.     

On the Lp–Lq maximal regularity for the linear thermoelastic plate equation in a bounded domain

This paper is concerned with the thermoelastic plate equations in a domain Ω: subject to the boundary condition: u|=D_νu|=θ|=0 and initial condition: (u, u_t, θ)|_t=0=(u₀, v₀, θ₀). Here, Ω is a bounded domain in ?ⁿ(n≧2). We assume that the boundary ?Ω of Ω is a C⁴ hypersurface. We obtain an L_p–L_q maximal regularity theorem. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On the Lorentz-Marcinkiewicz Operator Ideal

This article deals with the LORENTZ-MARCINKIEWICZ operator ideal ?? generated by an additive s-function and the LORENTZ-MARCINKIEWICZ sequence space λ^q(φ). We give eigenvalue distributions for operators belonging to ?? (E, E) and we show the interpolation properties of ??-ideals. Furthermore, we study certain SCHAUDER bases in ?? (H, K), H and K Hilbert spaces.     

Une Famille Infinie d'Extensions Faiblement Ramifiées

We study weakly ramified extensions of ℚ with Galois group C ⋊ C_p, where p is an odd prime. In particular, we describe an infinite family of such extensions when p = 3.     

Function Spaces with Exponential Weights II

This paper is a continuation of [8]. We study weighted function spaces of type B and F on the Euclidean space Rⁿ, where u is a weight function of at most exponential growth. In particular, u(χ (±|χ|) is an admissible weight. We deal with atomic decompositions of these spaces. Furthermore, we prove that the spaces B and F are isomorphic to the corresponding unweighted spaces B and F.     

Blow‐up estimates for a quasi‐linear reaction–diffusion system

In this paper, some sufficient conditions under which the quasilinear elliptic system ‐div(∣?_u∣^p‐2?_u) = uv, ‐div(∣?_u∣^q‐2?_u) = uv in ?^N(N≥3) has no radially symmetric positive solution is derived. Then by using this non‐existence result, blow‐up estimates for a class of quasilinear reaction–diffusion systems u_t = div (∣?_u∣^p‐2?_u)+uv,vt = div(∣?_v∣^q‐2?_v) +uv with the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary value conditions are obtained.

Tauberian theorem for m‐spherical transforms on the Heisenberg group

In this paper we prove a Tauberian type theorem for the space L ( H _n ). This theorem gives sufficient conditions for a L ( H _n ) submodule J ? L ( H _n ) to make up all of L ( H _n ). As a consequence of this theorem, we are able to improve previous results on the Pompeiu problem with moments on the Heisenberg group for the space L^∞( H _n ). In connection with the Pompeiu problem, given the vanishing of integrals ∫ z ^m L _g f ( z , 0) dσ ( z ) = 0 for all g ∈ H _n and i = 1, 2 for appropriate radii r₁ and r₂, we now have the (improved) conclusion f ≡ 0, where = · · · and form the standard basis for T^(0,1)( H _n ).

Subelliptic Estimates for a Class of Degenerate Elliptic Integro-Differential Operators

In this paper we prove subelliptic estimates for operators of the form Δ_x + λ² (x)S in ?^N = ? × ?, where the operator S is an elliptic integro - differential operator in ?^N and λ is a nonnegative Lipschitz continuous function.     

Finding blocks and other patterns in a random coloring of ℤ

Let ξ = (ξ_k)_k∈? be i.i.d. with P(ξ_k = 0) = P(ξ_k = 1) = 1/2, and let S: = (S_k) be a symmetric random walk with holding on ?, independent of ξ. We consider the scenery ξ observed along the random walk path S, namely, the process (χ_k := ξ). With high probability, we reconstruct the color and the length of blockⁿ, a block in ξ of length ≥ n close to the origin, given only the observations (χ_k). We find stopping times that stop the random walker with high probability at particular places of the scenery, namely on blockⁿ and in the interval [?3ⁿ,3ⁿ]. Moreover, we reconstruct with high probability a piece of ξ of length of the order 3 around blockⁿ, given only 3 observations collected by the random walker starting on the boundary of blockⁿ. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The existence of positive solutions to a non‐local singular boundary value problem

We consider the non‐local singular boundary value problem (1) where q ∈ C⁰([0,1]) and f, h ∈ C⁰((0,∞)), limf(x)=?∞, limh(x)=∞. We present conditions guaranteeing the existence of a solution x ∈ C¹([0,1]) ∩ C²((0,1]) which is positive on (0,1]. The proof of the existence result is based on regularization and sequential techniques and on a non‐linear alternative of Leray–Schauder type. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Entropy Numbers in Weighted Function Spaces and Eigenvalue Distributions of Some Degenerate Pseudodifferential Operators II

This paper is the continuation of [17]. We investigate mapping and spectral properties of pseudodifferential operators of type Ψ with χ χ ? ? and 0 ≤ γ ≤ 1 in the weighted function spaces B (?ⁿ, w(x)) and F (?ⁿ, w(x)) treated in [17]. Furthermore, we study the distribution of eigenvalues and the behaviour of corresponding root spaces for degenerate pseudodifferential operators preferably of type b₂(x) b(x, D) b₁(x), where b₁(x) and b₂(x) are appropriate functions and b(x, D) ? Ψ. Finally, on the basis of the Birman-Schwinger principle, we deal with the “negative spectrum” (bound states) of related symmetric operators in L₂.

Hardy-Littlewood Maximal Operator,Singular Integral Operators and the Riesz Potentials on Generalized Morrey Spaces

Any continuous linear operator T: L^p → L^q has a natural vector-valued extension T: L^p(l) → L^q(l) which is automatically continuous. Relations between the norms of these operators in the cases of p = q and r = 2 were considered by Marcinkiewicz -Zygmund [28], Herz [14] and Krivine [19] - [21]. In this paper we study systematically these relations and given some applications. It turns out that some known results can be proved in a simple way as a consequence of these developments.     

Tangential Convergence of Temperatures and Harmonic Functions in Besov and in Triebel-Lizorkin Spaces

We study the maximal function Mf(x) = sup |f(x + y, t)| when Ω is a region in the (y,t) Ω upper half space R and f(x, t) is the harmonic extension to R₊^N+1 of a distribution in the Besov space B^α_p,q(R^N) or in the Triebel-Lizorkin space F^α_p,q(R^N). In particular, we prove that when Ω= {|_y|^{N/ (N-αp)} < t < 1} the operator M is bounded from F (R^N) into L^p (R^N). The admissible regions for the spaces B (R^N) with p < q are more complicated.
