Charged Black Holes and Multidimensional Gravity

A multidimensional generalization of the Reissner-Nordström solution of general relativity is obtained for the case of n Ricci-flat internal spaces. A two-parameter family of black-hole solutions for an arbitrary dimensionality D is selected. Nontrivial black holes with D > 4 are shown to exist only with a nonzero electric charge. Observational consequences are discussed, in particular, a violation of Coulomb's law.     

Inverse and saturation theorems for linear combination of modified Baskakov operators

In this paper, we consider linear combinations of modified Baskakov operators. By use of several lemmas, we obtain the inverse theorem (Theorem 1.1) and the saturation (Theorem 1.2) for those linear combinations.

Kaplansky conjecture in the theory of quadratic forms

This article considers the splitting properties of finite-dimensional division rings over universal splitting fields of quadratic forms. An example of a field with u-invariant equal to 6 is constructed, which contradicts Kaplansky's conjecture concerning u-invariants.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im, V.

Mixing and sweeping out

A weakly mixing transformationT and a sequence (d _n) are constructed such thatT is uniformly mixing on (d _n),T is uniformly sweeping out on ([αd _n]) for allα∈(0, 1), and for all rationalα∈(0, 1)T is not mixing on ([αd _n]).
