Penrose Type Inequalities for Asymptotically Hyperbolic Graphs

In this paper, we study asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds given as graphs of asymptotically constant functions over hyperbolic space ${\mathbb{H}^n}$ . The graphs are considered as unbounded hypersurfaces of ${\mathbb{H}^{n+1}}$ which carry the induced metric and have an interior boundary. For such manifolds, the scalar curvature appears in the divergence of a 1-form involving the integrand for the asymptotically hyperbolic mass. Integrating this divergence, we estimate the mass by an integral over the inner boundary. In case the inner boundary satisfies a convexity condition, this can in turn be estimated in terms of the area of the inner boundary. The resulting estimates are similar to the conjectured Penrose inequality for asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. The work presented here is inspired by Lam’s article (The graph cases of the Riemannian positive mass and Penrose inequalities in all dimensions. http://arxiv.org/abs/1010.4256, 2010) concerning the asymptotically Euclidean case. Using ideas developed by Huang and Wu (The equality case of the penrose inequality for asymptotically flat graphs. http://arxiv.org/abs/1205.2061, 2012), we can in certain cases prove that equality is only attained for the anti-de Sitter Schwarzschild metric.     

Bounds of Singular Integrals on Weighted Hardy Spaces and Discrete Littlewood–Paley Analysis

We apply the discrete version of Calderón??s reproducing formula and Littlewood?CPaley theory with weights to establish the $H^{p}_{w} \to H^{p}_{w}$ (0<p<??) and $H^{p}_{w}\to L^{p}_{w}$ (0<p??1) boundedness for singular integral operators and derive some explicit bounds for the operator norms of singular integrals acting on these weighted Hardy spaces when we only assume w??A _??. The bounds will be expressed in terms of the A _q constant of w if q>q _w =inf?{s:w??A _s }. Our results can be regarded as a natural extension of the results about the growth of the A _p constant of singular integral operators on classical weighted Lebesgue spaces $L^{p}_{w}$ in Hytonen et al. (arXiv:1006.2530, 2010; arXiv:0911.0713, 2009), Lerner (Ill.?J.?Math. 52:653?C666, 2008; Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 136(8):2829?C2833, 2008), Lerner et?al. (Int.?Math. Res. Notes 2008:rnm 126, 2008; Math. Res. Lett. 16:149?C156, 2009), Lacey et?al. (arXiv:0905.3839v2, 2009; arXiv:0906.1941, 2009), Petermichl (Am. J. Math. 129(5):1355?C1375, 2007; Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 136(4):1237?C1249, 2008), and Petermichl and Volberg (Duke Math. J. 112(2):281?C305, 2002). Our main result is stated in Theorem?1.1. Our method avoids the atomic decomposition which was usually used in proving boundedness of singular integral operators on Hardy spaces.     

On a characterization of finite dimensional real linear spaces

LetX be a real linear space; if is a linear topology onX, let denote the class of all bounded with respect to subsets ofX. In this paper it is shown that the spaceX is algebraically finite dimensional if and only if the class of all convex, absorbing and radially bounded subsets ofX is included in the intersection of all , where runs the set of all linear topologies onX.     

On the Brauer-Feit bound for abelian defect groups

We improve the Brauer-Feit bound on the number of irreducible characters in a $p$ -block for abelian defect groups by making use of Halasi and Podoski (Every coprime linear group admits a base of size two. http://arxiv.org/abs/1212.0199v1, [7]) and Kessar and Malle (Ann Math 178(2):321–384, [11]). We also prove Brauer’s $k(B)$ -Conjecture for 2-blocks with abelian defect groups of rank at most 5 and 3-blocks and 5-blocks with abelian defect groups of rank at most 3.     

A characterization of the Wishart exponential families by an invariance property

E is the space of real symmetric (d, d) matrices, andS and \(\bar S\) are the subsets ofE of positive definite and semipositive-definite matrices. Let there be ap in $$\Lambda = \left\{ {\frac{1}{2},1,\frac{3}{2}, \ldots \frac{{d - 1}}{2}} \right\} \cup \left] {\frac{{d - 1}}{2}, + \infty } \right[$$ The Wishart natural exponential family with parameterp is a set of probability distributions on \(\bar S\) defined by $$F_p = \{ \exp [ - \tfrac{1}{2}Tr(\Gamma x)](det\Gamma )^p \mu _p (dx);\Gamma \in S\} $$ where μ_p is a suitable measure on \(\bar S\) . LetGL(?^d) be the subset ofE of invertible matrices. Fora inGL(?^d), define the automorphismg _a ofE byg _a(x)=^t axa, where ^t a is the transpose ofa. The aim of this paper is to show that a natural exponential familyF onE is invariant byg _a for alla inGL(?^d) if and only if there existsp in Λ such that eitherF=F _p, orF is the image ofF _p byx??x.

Garside Structure for Singular Braid Monoid in Birman,Ko, Lee Generators

Cell decomposition of some unitary group Rapoport–Zink spaces

In this paper we study the \(p\) -adic analytic geometry of the basic unitary group Rapoport–Zink spaces \(\mathcal {M}_K\) with signature \((1,n-1)\) . Using the theory of Harder–Narasimhan filtration of finite flat groups developed in Fargues (Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik 645:1–39, 2010), Fargues (Théorie de la réduction pour les groupes p-divisibles, prépublications. http://www.math.jussieu.fr/~fargues/Prepublications.html, 2010), and the Bruhat–Tits stratification of the reduced special fiber \(\mathcal {M}_{red}\) defined in Vollaard and Wedhorn (Invent. Math. 184:591–627, 2011), we find some relatively compact fundamental domain \(\mathcal {D}_K\) in \(\mathcal {M}_K\) for the action of \(G(\mathbb {Q}_p)\times J_b(\mathbb {Q}_p)\) , the product of the associated \(p\) -adic reductive groups, and prove that \(\mathcal {M}_K\) admits a locally finite cell decomposition. By considering the action of regular elliptic elements on these cells, we establish a Lefschetz trace formula for these spaces by applying Mieda’s main theorem in Mieda (Lefschetz trace formula for open adic spaces (Preprint). arXiv:1011.1720, 2013).     

Un teorema sulla rappresentazione degli integrali

Let be a De Possel differentiation basis in a complete measure space , with μ≥0, μ(X)<+∞; letB be a Banach space and . When the F′ exists μ-a.e. onX, we prove that for eachp>0, the μ-integral of‖F′‖ ^p is the lower-bound of a class ofp-variations.     

Finite number of fibre products of Kummer covers and curves with many points over finite fields

We study fibre products of a finite number of Kummer covers of the projective line over finite fields. We determine the number of rational points of the fibre product over a rational point of the projective line, which improves the results of Özbudak and Temür (Appl Algebra Eng Commun Comput 18:433–443, 2007) substantially. We also construct explicit examples of fibre products of Kummer covers with many rational points, including a record and two new entries for the current table (http://www.manypoints.org, 2011).     

Some properties of the Yamabe soliton and the related nonlinear elliptic equation

Firstly we prove the non-existence of positive radially symmetric solution of the nonlinear elliptic equation $\frac{n-1}{m}\Delta v^m+\alpha v+\beta x\cdot \nabla u=0$ in $\mathbb{R }^{n}$ when $n\ge 3$ , $0<m\le \frac{n-2}{n}$ , $\alpha <0$ and $\beta \le 0$ and prove various properties of the solution of the above elliptic equation for other parameter range of $\alpha $ and $\beta $ . Then these results are applied to prove some results on Yamabe solitons including the exact behaviour of the metric of the Yamabe soliton, its scalar curvature and sectional curvature, at infinity. A new proof of a result of Daskalopoulos and Sesum (The classification of locally conformally flat Yamabe solitons, http://arxiv.org/abs/1104.2242) on the positivity of the sectional curvature of Yamabe solitons is also presented.     

A sub-Riemannian curvature-dimension inequality,volume doubling property and the Poincaré inequality

Let $\mathbb M $ be a smooth connected manifold endowed with a smooth measure $\mu $ and a smooth locally subelliptic diffusion operator $L$ satisfying $L1=0$ , and which is symmetric with respect to $\mu $ . We show that if $L$ satisfies, with a non negative curvature parameter, the generalized curvature inequality introduced by the first and third named authors in http://arxiv.org/abs/1101.3590, then the following properties hold:

• The volume doubling property;
• The Poincaré inequality;
• The parabolic Harnack inequality.

The key ingredient is the study of dimension dependent reverse log-Sobolev inequalities for the heat semigroup and corresponding non-linear reverse Harnack type inequalities. Our results apply in particular to all Sasakian manifolds whose horizontal Webster–Tanaka–Ricci curvature is nonnegative, all Carnot groups of step two, and to wide subclasses of principal bundles over Riemannian manifolds whose Ricci curvature is nonnegative.     

The second Dirichlet coefficient starts out negative

Classical modular forms of small weight and low level are likely to have a negative second Fourier coefficient. Similarly, the labeling scheme for elliptic curves tends to give smaller labels to the higher-rank curves. These observations are easily made when browsing the L-functions and Modular Forms Database, available at http://www.LMFDB.org/. An explanation lies in the L-functions associated to these objects.     

A generalization of a theorem of Kruskal

LetA be a set ofk-subsets of {1,...,n} with . We determine the minimal cardinality of thel-shadow ofA. This theorem generalizes a theorem of Kruskal [10], Katona [8], Lindström [11] and other which gives a solution for the problem without the condition . Furthermore we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the uniqueness of the solution in the KKL theorem.     

Convolution of the Fourier coefficients of the Eisenstein-Maass series

The convolution is defined as the sum where for n≠0 and W₀,W₁ are arbitrary smooth functions. Question: how to express these sums in the form of the combinations of the N-th Fourier coefficients of the eigenfunctions of the automorphic Laplacian? The answer is given in terms of the bilinear form of the Hecke series associated with the eigenfunctions of the automorphic Laplacian and with regular cusp forms. The final identity may lead to a new possibility for the solution of the moment problem of the Riemann zeta-function.     

On the L p discrepancy of two-dimensional folded Hammersley point sets

We give an explicit construction of two-dimensional point sets whose L _p discrepancy is of best possible order for all \({1 \le p \le \infty}\) . It is provided by folding Hammersley point sets in base b by means of the b-adic baker’s transformation which has been introduced by Hickernell (Monte Carlo and quasi-Monte Carlo methods. Springer, Berlin, 274–289, 2002) for b =  2 and Goda, Suzuki, and Yoshiki (The b-adic baker’s transformation for quasi-Monte Carlo integration using digital nets. arXiv:1312.5850 [math:NA], 2013) for arbitrary \({b \in \mathbb{N}}\) , \({b \ge 2}\) . We prove that both the minimum Niederreiter–Rosenbloom–Tsfasman weight and the minimum Dick weight of folded Hammersley point sets are large enough to achieve the best possible order of L _p discrepancy for all \({1 \le p \le \infty}\) .     

Detection of multivariate outliers in business survey data with incomplete information

Many different methods for statistical data editing can be found in the literature but only few of them are based on robust estimates (for example such as BACON-EEM, epidemic algorithms (EA) and transformed rank correlation (TRC) methods of Béguin and Hulliger). However, we can show that outlier detection is only reasonable if robust methods are applied, because the classical estimates are themselves influenced by the outliers. Nevertheless, data editing is essential to check the multivariate data for possible data problems and it is not deterministic like the traditional micro editing where all records are extensively edited manually using certain rules/constraints. The presence of missing values is more a rule than an exception in business surveys and poses additional severe challenges to the outlier detection. First we review the available multivariate outlier detection methods which can cope with incomplete data. In a simulation study, where a subset of the Austrian Structural Business Statistics is simulated, we compare several approaches. Robust methods based on the Minimum Covariance Determinant (MCD) estimator, S-estimators and OGK-estimator as well as BACON-BEM provide the best results in finding the outliers and in providing a low false discovery rate. Many of the discussed methods are implemented in the R package ${\tt{rrcovNA}}$ which is available from the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) at http://www.CRAN.R-project.org under the GNU General Public License.
