Common periodic trajectories of interval maps

We prove that for any continuous piecewise monotone or smooth interval map f and any subset of the set of periods of periodic trajectories of f, there is another map such that the set of periods of periodic trajectories common for f and , which is denoted by , coincides with . At the same time, for each integer , there exists a continuous map f such that for any map if is an infinite set. Dedicated to Vladimir Igorevich Arnold

On the Optimal Value Function of a Linearly Perturbed Quadratic Program

The optimal value function of the quadratic program , where is a given symmetric matrix, a given matrix, and are the linear perturbations, is considered. It is proved that is directionally differentiable at any point in its effective domain . Formulae for computing the directional derivative of at in a direction are obtained. We also present an example showing that, in general, is not piecewise linear-quadratic on W. The preceding (unpublished) example of Klatte is also discussed.

Hyperbolic Function Theory in the Clifford Algebra {\mathcal {C}}\ell_{n+1, 0}

The aim of this paper is to give the basic principles of hyperbolic function theory on the Clifford algebra . The structure of the theory is quite similar to the case of Clifford algebras with negative generators, but the proofs are not obvious. The (real) Clifford algebra is generated by unit vectors with positive squares e²_i = + 1. The hyperbolic Dirac operator is of the form where Q₀f is represented by the composition . If is a solution of H_kf = 0, then f is called k-hypergenic in Ω, where is an open set. We introduce some basic results of hyperbolic function theory and give some representation theorems on .

On the Schwarz reflection principle for monogenic functions

Let ∑ be either an oriented hyperplane or the unit sphere in , let be open and connected and let be an open and connected domain in such that . If in is a null solution of the Dirac operator (also called a monogenic function in ) which is continuously extendable to , then conditions upon are given enabling the monogenic extension of across . In such a way Schwarz reflection type principles for monogenic functions are established in the Spin (1) and Spin cases. The Spin (1) case includes the classical Schwarz reflection principle for holomorphic functions in the plane. The Spin case deals with so-called “half boundary value problems” for the Dirac operator.

Entropy and Decay of Correlations for Real Analytic Semi-Flows

We consider real analytic suspension semi-flows over uniformly expanding real-analytic map of the interval. We show that for any -invariant equilibrium measure related to an analytic potential g, there exists a Banach space of test functions such that for generic observables in , the corresponding correlation functions cannot decay faster than , where h_g is the measure theoretic entropy of . This statement implies the existence of essential spectrum for the Perron-Frobenius operator associated to the semi-flow, when acting on any reasonable Banach space. Submitted: September 16, 2008.

Nonarchimedean Cantor set and string

We construct a nonarchimedean (or p-adic) analogue of the classical ternary Cantor set . In particular, we show that this nonarchimedean Cantor set is self-similar. Furthermore, we characterize as the subset of 3-adic integers whose elements contain only 0’s and 2’s in their 3-adic expansions and prove that is naturally homeomorphic to . Finally, from the point of view of the theory of fractal strings and their complex fractal dimensions [7, 8], the corresponding nonarchimedean Cantor string resembles the standard archimedean (or real) Cantor string perfectly.

Lefschetz decompositions and categorical resolutions of singularities

Let Y be a singular algebraic variety and let be a resolution of singularities of Y. Assume that the exceptional locus of over Y is an irreducible divisor in . For every Lefschetz decomposition of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on we construct a triangulated subcategory ) which gives a desingularization of . If the Lefschetz decomposition is generated by a vector bundle tilting over Y then is a noncommutative resolution, and if the Lefschetz decomposition is rectangular, then is a crepant resolution.     

A Topological View of Ramsey Families of Finite Subsets of Positive Integers

If is an initially hereditary family of finite subsets of positive integers (i.e., if and G is initial segment of F then ) and M an infinite subset of positive integers then we define an ordinal index . We prove that if is a family of finite subsets of positive integers such that for every the characteristic function χ_F is isolated point of the subspace

The product of two von Neumann n-frames, its characteristic, and modular fractal lattices

Let L be a bounded lattice. If for each a₁ < b₁ ∈ L and a₂ < b₂ ∈ L there is a lattice embedding ψ: [a₁, b₁] → [a₂, b₂] with ψ(a₁) = a₂ and ψ(b₁) = b₂, then we say that L is a quasifractal. If ψ can always be chosen to be an isomorphism or, equivalently, if L is isomorphic to each of its nontrivial intervals, then L will be called a fractal lattice. For a ring R with 1 let denote the lattice variety generated by the submodule lattices of R-modules. Varieties of this kind are completely described in [16]. The prime field of characteristic p will be denoted by F_p. Let be a lattice variety generated by a nondistributive modular quasifractal. The main theorem says that is neither too small nor too large in the following sense: there is a unique , a prime number or zero, such that and for any n ≥ 3 and any nontrivial (normalized von Neumann) n-frame of any lattice in , is of characteristic p. We do not know if in general; however we point out that, for any ring R with 1, implies . It will not be hard to show that is Arguesian. The main theorem does have a content, for it has been shown in [2] that each of the is generated by a single fractal lattice L_p; moreover we can stipulate either that L_p is a continuous geometry or that L_p is countable. The proof of the main theorem is based on the following result of the present paper: if is a nontrivial m-frame and is an n-frame of a modular lattice L with m, n ≥ 3 such that and , then these two frames have the same characteristic and, in addition, they determine a nontrivial mn-frame of the same characteristic in a canonical way, which we call the product frame.

Birkhoff coordinates for KdV on phase spaces of distributions

The purpose of this paper is to extend the construction of Birkhoff coordinates for the KdV equation from the phase space of square integrable 1-periodic functions with mean value zero to the phase space of mean value zero distributions from the Sobolev space endowed with the symplectic structure More precisely, we construct a globally defined real-analytic symplectomorphism where is a weighted Hilbert space of sequences supplied with the canonical Poisson structure so that the KdV Hamiltonian for potentials in is a function of the actions alone.

The aim of the present paper is to introduce a metric locally convex topology on the space of δ-psh functions in the Cegrell class . We prove that with this topology is a non-separable and non-reflexive Fréchet space. At the same time, we extend the Monge–Ampère operator from the class to .     

Representation Rings of Lie Superalgebras

Given a Lie superalgebra , we introduce several variants of the representation ring, built as subrings and quotients of the ring of virtual -supermodules, up to (even) isomorphisms. In particular, we consider the ideal of virtual -supermodules isomorphic to their own parity reversals, as well as an equivariant K-theoretic super representation ring on which the parity reversal operator takes the class of a virtual -supermodule to its negative. We also construct representation groups built from ungraded -modules, as well as degree-shifted representation groups using Clifford modules. The full super representation ring , including all degree shifts, is then a -graded ring in the complex case and a -graded ring in the real case. Our primary result is a six-term periodic exact sequence relating the rings , and . We first establish a version of it working over an arbitrary (not necessarily algebraically closed) field of characteristic 0. In the complex case, this six-term periodic long exact sequence splits into two three-term sequences, which gives us additional insight into the structure of the complex super representation ring . In the real case, we obtain the expected 24-term version, as well as a surprising six-term version, of this periodic exact sequence. (Received: October 2004)
