Let G be a finite permutation group on a set with no fixed points in and let m and k be integers with 0 < m < k. For a finite subset of the movement of is defined as move() = max_gG| ^g \ |. Suppose further that G is not a 2-group and that p is the least odd prime dividing |G| and move() m for all k-element subsets of . Then either || k + m or k (7m – 5) / 2, || (9m – 3)/2. Moreover when || > k + m, then move() m for every subset of .     

Relaxation of a Quadratic Functional Defined by a Nonnegative Unbounded Matrix

We study the lower semicontinuous envelope in L^p(), F, of a functional F of the form F(u)=A uudx where A=A(x) is not strictly elliptic and not bounded. We prove that F; may also be written as F;(u)= Buudx with B=AP A for a matrix P which is the matrix of an orthogonal projection. In the one-dimensional case, we characterize the domain of F and we explicit the matrix P.     

Characterization theorem of generalized polynomial of best approximation having bounded coefficients

Let the set of generalized polynomials having bounded coefficients beK={p= _jg_j. _{j j j},j=1, 2, ...,n}, whereg ₁,g ₂, ...,g _n are linearly independent continuous functions defined on the interval [a, b], _j, _j are extended real numbers satisfying _j<+, _j>-, and _{j j}. Assume thatf is a continuous function defined on a compact setX [a, b]. This paper gives the characterization theorem forp being the best uniform approximation tof fromK, and points out that the characterization theorem can be applied in calculating the approximate solution of best approximation tof fromK.     

Factorization of a selfadjoint nonanalytic operator function II. Single spectral zone

We consider a selfadjoint and smooth enough operator-valued functionL() on the segment [a, b]. LetL(a)0,L(b)0, and there exist two positive numbers and such that the inequality |(L()f, f)|< ([a, b] f=1) implies the inequality (L'()f, f)>. Then the functionL() admits a factorizationL()=M()(I-Z) whereM() is a continuous and invertible on [a, b] operator-valued function, and operatorZ is similar to a selfadjoint one. This result was obtained in the first part of the present paper [10] under a stronge conditionL()0 ( [a,b]). For analytic functionL() the result of this paper was obtained in [13].     

Quasianapole Interaction of Charged Fermions

We obtain the analytic expression for the total cross section of the reaction e ^– e ⁺l ^– l ⁺ (l=,) taking possible quasianapole interaction effects into account. We find numerical restrictions on the interaction parameter value from data for the reaction e ^– e ^+–+ in the energy domain below the Z ⁰ peak.     

Completion of Countably Seminormed Spaces

Let E be a vector space with a topology generated by countably many increasing seminorms p1 p2 ...and let _{p i} be the completion of E/ker (pi) with respect to pi. If pi are norms compatible in a certain sense, it is known that E is a complete space if and only if E=_{i=1 p i} . In this paper we give a similar characterization of complete spaces in a general case when pi are seminorms, without any additional assumptions. Our characterization coincides with the known one if pi are compatible norms.     

A family of noetherian rings with their finite length modules under control

We investigate the category mod of finite length modules over the ring =A _k , where is a V-ring, i.e. a ring for which every simple module is injective, k a subfield of its centre and A an elementary k-algebra. Each simple module E _j gives rise to a quasiprogenerator P _j = A E _j . By a result of K. Fuller, P _j induces a category equivalence from which we deduce that mod _j mod EndP _j . As a consequence we can(1) construct for each elementary k-algebra A over a finite field k a nonartinian noetherian ring such that modA mod(2) find twisted versions of algebras of wild representation type such that itself is of finite or tame representation type (in mod)(3) describe for certain rings the minimal almost split morphisms in mod and observe that almost all of these maps are not almost split in Mod.     

On measures that agree on balls

The fundamental result: if and v are two finite Borel measures, defined in the spaceL ^p[0, 1] (1p<) or in C(K) (K is a metric compactum without isolated points), then from the equalities (B)=v(B) for all balls B of radius 1 there follows that =v. In addition, in the spaces C(K) and _p (1p<) from the inequalities (B) v(B) there follows that v.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Lattice Polytopes Associated to Certain Demazure Modules of sl n + 1

Let w be an element of the Weyl group of sl _{n + 1}. We prove that for a certain class of elements w (which includes the longest element w₀ of the Weyl group), there exist a lattice polytope R ^l(w) , for each fundamental weight _i of sl _{n + 1}, such that for any dominant weight = _{i = 1} ⁿ a _{i i} , the number of lattice points in the Minkowski sum _w = _{i = 1} ⁿ a _{i i} ^w is equal to the dimension of the Demazure module E _w (). We also define a linear map A ^w : R ^l(w) P _Z R where P denotes the weight lattice, such that char E _w () = e e^–A(x) where the sum runs through the lattice points x of ^w .     

On the existence of wave operators for the Klein-Gordon equation

The problem of existence of wave operators for the Klein-Gordon equation ( _t ² –+²+iV_1t+V₂)u(x,t)=0 (x R ⁿ,t R, n3, >0) is studied where V₁ and V₂ are symmetric operators in L₂(R ⁿ) and it is shown that conditions similar to those of Veseli-Weidmann (Journal Functional Analysis 17, 61–77 (1974)) for a different class of operators are also sufficient for the Klein-Gordon equation.     

Structures of topological type

In this paper we continue the study of structures of various types initiated by the author in the earlier paper Structures of extensions (Ref. Zh. Mat., 1974, 4A361). The present paper is devoted to the so-called structure of topological type. By a structure of topological type on the set X is meant a topological structure, defined on some set obtained from X, and possibly additional sets, by a totally ordered sequence of operations of unions of sets, products of sets, and passage to the set of subsets. We study certain structures of topological type: bitopological (Sec. 2) and settopological (Sec. 3). A bitopological structure on the set X is any topological structure on the set X×X, and a bitopological space is a pair (X,). This concept is a natural extension of the concept of a bitopological space as a set X on which there are given two topological structures ₁ and ₂-these structures define a structure =₁×₂ on the set X×X. A settopological structure on the set X is any topological structure on the set={A¦A. There are given representations of piecewise-linear structures (Sec. 4) and smooth structures (Sec. 5) as settopological structures.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Critical points of essential norms of singular integral operators in weighted spaces

We show that for any simple piecewise Ljapunov contour there exists a power weight such that the essential norm |S | in the spaceL ₂(, ) does not depend on the angles of the contour and it is given by formula (2). All such weights are described. For the union =₁₂ of two simple piecewise Lyapunov curves we prove that the essential norm |S | inL ₂() is minimal if both ₁ and ₂ are smooth in some neighborhoods of the common points. It is the case when the norm |S | in the spaceL ₂() as well as inL ₂(, ) does not depend on the values of the angles and it can be calculated by formula (5).     

An infinite dimensional analogue of the Albeverio-Röckner's theorem on Fukushima's conjecture

LetX be the solution of the SDE:dX _t = (X _t)dB _t +b(X _t)dt, with andb C _b (R) such that >0 for some constant , andB a real Brownian motion. Let be the law ofX onE=C([0, 1],R) andk E* – {0}, whereE* is the topological dual space ofE. Consider the classical form: _k (u, v)=u / kv / kd, whereu andv are smooth functions onE. We prove that, if _k is closable for anyk in a dense subset ofE* and if the smooth functions are contained in the domain of the generator of the closure of _k , must be a constant function.     

Harmonic analysis on tori

We consider measurable subsets {ofR}ⁿ with 0<m()<, and we assume that has a spectral set . (In the special case when is also assumed open, may be obtained as the joint spectrum of a family of commuting self-adjoint operators {H _k: 1kn} in L ² () such that each H _k is an extension of i(/x _k) on C _c (), k=1, ..., n.)It is known that is a fundamental domain for a lattice if is itself a lattice. In this paper, we consider a class of examples where is not assumed to be a lattice. Instead is assumed to have a certain inhomogeneous form, and we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for to be a fundamental domain for some lattice in {ofR}ⁿ. We are thus able to decide the question, fundamental domain or not, by considering only properties of the spectrum . Our criterion is obtained as a corollary to a theorem concerning partitions of sets which have a spectrum of inhomogeneous form.Work supported in part by the NSF.Work supported in part by the NSRC, Denmark.     

Some extensions of the Hewitt-Savage zero-one law

Summary Let denote the class of infinite product probability measures = ₁× ₂× defined on an infinite product of replications of a given measurable space (X, A), and let denote the subset of for which (A) =0 or 1 for each permutation invariant event A. Previous works by Hewitt and Savage, Horn and Schach, Blum and Pathak, and Sendler (referenced in the paper) discuss very restrictive sufficient conditions under which a given member , of belongs to . In the present paper, the class is shown to possess several closure properties. E.g., if and _{0 n} for some n 1, then ₀× ₁× ₂×.... While the current results do not permit a complete characterization of they demonstrate conclusively that is a much larger subset of than previous results indicated. The interesting special case X={0,1} is discussed in detail.Research supported by the National Science Foundation under grant No. MCS75-07556     

On generalized gamma functions related to the Laurent coefficients of the Riemann zeta function

Summary We study a class of generalized gamma functions _k (z) which relate to the generalized Euler constants _k (basically the Laurent coefficients of(s)) as (z) does to the Euler constant. A new series expansion for _k is derived, and the constant term in the asymptotic expansion for log _k (z) is studied in detail. These and related constants are numerically computed for 1 k 15.
