Traces of Sobolev functions on the Ahlfors sets of Carnot groups

We prove the converse of the trace theorem for the functions of the Sobolev spaces W _p ^l on a Carnot group on the regular closed subsets called Ahlfors d-sets (the direct trace theorem was obtained in one of our previous publications). The theorem generalizes Johnsson and Wallin’s results for Sobolev functions on the Euclidean space. As a consequence we give a theorem on the boundary values of Sobolev functions on a domain with smooth boundary in a two-step Carnot group. We consider an example of application of the theorems to solvability of the boundary value problem for one partial differential equation.     

The extension of functions of Sobolev classes beyond the boundary of the domain on Carnot groups

We prove the theorem on extension of the functions of the Sobolev space W _p ^l (Ω) which are defined on a bounded (ε, δ)-domain Ω in a two-step Carnot group beyond the boundary of the domain of definition. This theorem generalizes the well-known extension theorem by P. Jones for domains of the Euclidean space.     

Whitney-type theorems on extension of functions on Carnot groups

We generalize the classical Whitney theorem which describes the restrictions of functions of various smoothness to closed sets of a Carnot group. The main results of the article are announced in [1].     

The traces of Bessel potentials on regular subsets of Carnot groups

We prove the direct theorem on the traces of the Bessel potentials L _p ^α defined on a Carnot group, on the regular closed subsets called Ahlfors d-sets. The result is convertible for integer α, i.e., for the Sobolev spaces W _p ^α (the converse trace theorem was proven in [24]). This theorem generalizes A. Johnsson and H. Wallin’s results [13] for Sobolev functions and Bessel potentials on the Euclidean space.     

Boundary functions on a bounded balanced domain

We solve the following Dirichlet problem on the bounded balanced domain with some additional properties: For p > 0 and a positive lower semi-continuous function u on ∂Ω with u(z) = u(λ z) for |λ| = 1, z ∈ ∂Ω we construct a holomorphic function f ∈ (Ω) such that for z ∈ ∂Ω, where = {λ ∈ ℂ: |λ| < 1}.      

Continuation of separately analytic functions defined on part of a domain boundary

Suppose that D ? ?ⁿ is a domain with smooth boundary ?D, E ? ?D is a boundary subset of positive Lebesgue measure mes(E) > 0, and F ? G is a nonpluripolar compact set in a strongly pseudoconvex domain G ? ?^m. We prove that, under some additional conditions, each function separately analytic on the set X = (D×F)∪(E× G) can be holomorphically continued into the domain where ω* is the P-measure and ω _in ^* is the inner P-measure.     

On the Fourier-Laplace transform of functionals on a space of infinitely differentiable functions on a convex compact

Classes of ultradifferentiable functions are classically defined by imposing growth conditions on the derivatives of the functions. Following this approach we consider a Fréchet-Schwartz space of infinitely differentiable functions on a closure of a bounded convex domain of multidimensional real space with uniform bounds on their partial derivatives. Our aim is to obtain Paley-Wiener-Schwartz type theorem connecting properties of linear continuous functionals on this space with the behaviour of their Fourier-Laplace transforms. Very similar problems were considered by M. Neymark, B.A. Taylor, M. Langenbruch, A.V. Abanin.     

Optimal method for truncating a chain of equations for two-time Green’s functions

We use an example of a chain of equations describing a system of Bose particles with pairwise interaction to develop a method for decoupling the chain at its second element. We obtain an approximation of the interacting-modes type, which results in a system of nonlinear equations for one-, two-, and three-particle functions. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 147, No. 3, pp. 503–510, June, 2006.     

Embedding of Sobolev space in Orlicz space for a domain with irregular boundary

In this paper, we establish the embedding of a weighted Sobolev space in an Orlicz space for a domain with irregular boundary. We find an estimate of the order of growth of the N-function (defining the Orlicz space) and show that, under certain additional constraints on the weights, this estimate is sharp. We also establish the embedding in the space of continuous functions.     

Approximation of multidimensional functions with a given majorant of mixed moduli of continuity

In the paper order-exact upper bounds for the best approximations of classesH _q ^Emphasis>/ω by trigonometric polynomials are obtained. The spectrum of the approximating polynomials lies in sets generated by the level surfaces of the function ω(t). These sets are a generalization of hyperbolic crosses to the case of an arbitrary function ω(t). Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 65, No. 1, pp. 107–117, January, 1999.     

On the construction of second-to-fourth-order accurate approximations of spatial derivatives on an arbitrary set of points

The method of undetermined coefficients generates a set of fixed-order approximations of spatial derivatives on an irregular stencil. An additional condition is proposed that singles out a unique scheme from this set. The resulting second-to-fourth order accurate approximations are applied to solving Poisson’s and the biharmonic equations. The bending of a plate supported by an edge, the nonlinear bending of a circular plate, and two-dimensional problems in solid mechanics are discussed. A method is proposed for constructing oriented approximations, which are validated by solving an advection equation.
