Weak-type Endpoint Estimates for Multilinear Singular Integral Operators

In this paper, the authors discuss a class of multilinear singular integrals and obtain that the operators are bounded from H^1(R^n) to weak L^1(R^n). Using this result, we can directly prove a main theorem in [5].     

The Estimates for Sharp Maximal Functions of Multilinear Strongly Singular Integral Operators

In this paper, the author obtains that the multilinear operators of strongly singular integral operators and their dual operators are bounded from some L^p（R^n） to L^p（R^n） when the m-th order derivatives of A belong to L^p（R^n） for r large enough. By this result, the author gets the estimates for the Sharp maximal functions of the multilinear operators with the m-th order derivatives of A being Lipschitz functions. It follows that the multilinear operators are （L^p, L^p）-type operators for 1 〈 p 〈 ∞.     

On Positive Operators on Some Ordered Banach Spaces

In this paper we study to what extent some classical results concerning operators T, from a -space to a Banach space, or from a Banach space to a L ¹-space, can be precised, when the Banach spaces involved are ordered (by a normal cone in the first case, by a closed generating proper convex cone in the second case) and when the operators T are positive.     

Convolution-Dominated Operators on Discrete Groups

We study infinite matrices A indexed by a discrete group G that are dominated by a convolution operator in the sense that for x ∈ G and some . This class of “convolution-dominated” matrices forms a Banach-*-algebra contained in the algebra of bounded operators on ℓ ²(G). Our main result shows that the inverse of a convolution-dominated matrix is again convolution-dominated, provided that G is amenable and rigidly symmetric. For abelian groups this result goes back to Gohberg, Baskakov, and others, for non-abelian groups completely different techniques are required, such as generalized L ¹-algebras and the symmetry of group algebras.

L p Spectral Independence of Elliptic Operators via Commutator Estimates

Let {T _p:q ₁ p q ₂} be a family of consistent C ₀ semigroups on L ^p(), with q ₁,q ₂ [1,) and open. We show that certain commutator conditions on T _p and on the resolvent of its generator A _p ensure the p independence of the spectrum of A _p for p [q ₁,q ₂.Applications include the case of Petrovskij correct systems with Hölder continuous coefficients, Schrödinger operators, and certain elliptic operators in divergence form with real, but not necessarily symmetric, or complex coefficients.

Torsion in Boundary Coinvariants and K -Theory for Affine Buildings

Let (G, I, N, S) be an affine topological Tits system, and let Γ be a torsion-free cocompact lattice in G. This article studies the coinvariants H ₀(Γ; C(Ω,Z)), where Ω is the Furstenberg boundary of G. It is shown that the class [1] of the identity function in H ₀(Γ; C(Ω, Z)) has finite order, with explicit bounds for the order. A similar statement applies to the K ₀ group of the boundary crossed product C ^*-algebra C(Ω)Γ. If the Tits system has type ? ₂, exact computations are given, both for the crossed product algebra and for the reduced group C ^*-algebra.     

Classification and Liouville type theorems for <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-harmonic morphisms

We prove firstly the classification theorem for p-harmonic morphisms between Euclidean domains. Secondly, we show that if is a p-harmonic morphism (p ≥ 2) from a complete Riemannian manifold M of nonnegative Ricci curvature into a Riemannian manifold N of non-positive scalar curvature such that the L ^q -energy is finite, then is constant, which improve the corresponding result due to G. Choi, G. Yun in (Geometriae Dedicata 101 (2003), 53–59).      

A New Construction of Central Relative (p a , p a , p a , 1)-Difference Sets

Semiregular relative difference sets (RDS) in a finite group E which avoid a central subgroup C are equivalent to orthogonal cocycles. For example, every abelian semiregular RDS must arise from a symmetric orthogonal cocycle, and vice versa. Here, we introduce a new construction for central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS which derives from a novel type of orthogonal cocycle, an LP cocycle, defined in terms of a linearised permutation (LP) polynomial and multiplication in a finite presemifield. The construction yields many new non-abelian (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS. We show that the subset of the LP cocycles defined by the identity LP polynomial and multiplication in a commutative semifield determines the known abelian (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS, and give a second new construction using presemifields.We use this cohomological approach to identify equivalence classes of central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS with elementary abelian C and E/C. We show that for p = 2, a 3 and p = 3, a 2, every central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS is equivalent to one arising from an LP cocycle, and list them all by equivalence class. For p = 2, a = 4, we list the 32 distinct equivalence classes which arise from field multiplication. We prove that, for any p, there are at least a equivalence classes of central (p ^a , p ^a , p ^a , 1)-RDS, of which one is abelian and a – 1 are non-abelian.     

On Representations Associated with Completely n-Positive Linear Maps on Pro-C^＊-Algebras

It is shown that an n × n matrix of continuous linear maps from a pro-C^＊-algebra A to L（H）, which verifies the condition of complete positivity, is of the form [V^＊TijФ（·）V]^n i,where Ф is a representation of A on a Hilbert space K, V is a bounded linear operator from H to K, and j=1,[Tij]^n i,j=1 is a positive element in the C^＊-algebra of all n×n matrices over the commutant of Ф（A） in L（K）. This generalizes a result of C. Y.Suen in Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 112（3）, 1991, 709-712. Also, a covariant version of this construction is given.     

Approximation by Nonlinear Multivariate Sampling Kantorovich Type Operators and Applications to Image Processing

In this article, we study a nonlinear version of the sampling Kantorovich type operators in a multivariate setting and we show applications to image processing. By means of the above operators, we are able to reconstruct continuous and uniformly continuous signals/images (functions). Moreover, we study the modular convergence of these operators in the setting of Orlicz spaces L ^?(? ⁿ ) that allows us to deal the case of not necessarily continuous signals/images. The convergence theorems in L ^p (? ⁿ )-spaces, L ^αlog ^β L(? ⁿ )-spaces and exponential spaces follow as particular cases. Several graphical representations, for the various examples and image processing applications are included.     

Lp-Lq Estimates for higher order perturbed hyperbolic equation

In this paper L^p-L^q estimates for the solution u(x,t) to the following perturbed high-er order hyperbolic equation are considered, (ρπ--a△)(ρπ--b△)u V(x)u=O, x∈R^n,n≥6, ρ1eu(x,O) = O, ρ^3eu(x,O) = f(x), (j = O,1,2).We assume that the otential V(x) and the initial data f(x) are compactly supported, andV(x) is sufficiently small, then the solution u (x,t) of the above problem satisfies the same L^p-L^q estimates as that of the unperturbed problem.     

Total Scalar Curvature and L 2 Harmonic 1-Forms on a Minimal Hypersurface in Euclidean Space

Let M ⁿ , n 3, be a complete oriented immersed minimal hypersurface in Euclidean space R ⁿ⁺¹. We show that if the total scalar curvature on M is less than the n/2 power of 1/C _s , where C _s is the Sobolev constant for M, then there are no L ² harmonic 1-forms on M. As corollaries, such a minimal hypersurface contains no nontrivial harmonic functions with finite Dirichlet integral and so it has only one end. This implies finally that M is a hyperplane.     

The Adjoints of Dilation Operators on H-Cones

If S is an H-cone and P:SS is a localizable dilation operator on S (i.e., P is additive increasing, contractive, continuous in order from below and s(Ps+t–Pt+Pf)S, s,tS,f(S–S)₊), then it is proved that its adjoint P ^*:S ^*S ^* (i.e., P ^*=P) is also a localizable dilation operator. This is an improvement of a result obtained by G. Mokobodzki in the frame of excessive functions.

On the weak non-defectivity of veronese embeddings of projective spaces

Fix integers n, x, k such that n≥3, k>0, x≥4, (n, x)≠(3, 4) and k(n+1)<( _n ^n+x ). Here we prove that the order x Veronese embedding ofP ⁿ is not weakly (k−1)-defective, i.e. for a general S⊃P ⁿ such that #(S) = k+1 the projective space | I _2S (x)| of all degree t hypersurfaces ofP ⁿ singular at each point of S has dimension ( _n ^/n+x )−1− k(n+1) (proved by Alexander and Hirschowitz) and a general F∈| I _2S (x)| has an ordinary double point at each P∈ S and Sing (F)=S.

Examples for cross curvature flow on 3-manifolds

Recently, B. Chow and R.S. Hamilton [3] introduced the cross curvature flow on 3-manifolds. In this paper, we analyze two interesting examples for this new flow. One is on a square torus bundle over a circle, and the other is on a S² bundle over a circle. We show that the global flow exists in both cases. However, on the former the flow diverges at time infinity, and on the latter the flow converges at time infinity. Mathematics Subject Classification (1991) 53C44     

Analysis of the M X /G/1 Queue Under D-Policy

Abstract

We study the queue length of the M ^X /G/1 queue under D-policy. We derive the queue length PGF at an arbitrary point of time. Then, we derive the mean queue length. As special cases, M/G/1, M ^X /M/1, and M/M/1 queue under D-policy are investigated. Finally, the effects of employing D-policy are discussed.
