Reducing systems of linear differential equations to a passive form

In this paper, an application of the Riquer-Thomas-Janet theory is described for the problem of transforming a system of partial differential equations into a passive form, i.e., to a special form which contains explicitly both the equations of the initial system and all their nontrivial differential consequences. This special representation of a system markedly facilitates the subsequent integration of the corresponding differential equations. In this paper, the modern approach to the indicated problem is presented. This is the approach adopted in the Knuth-Bendix procedure [13] for critical-pair/completion and then Buchberger's algorithm for completion of polynomial ideal bases [13] (or, alternatively, for the construction of Groebner bases for ideals in a differential operator ring [14]). The algorithm of reduction to the passive form for linear system of partial differential equations and its implementation in the algorithmic language REFAL, as well as the capabilities of the corresponding program, are outlined. Examples illustrating the power and efficiency of the system are presented.     

Estimation of multivariate binary density using orthogonal functions

In this paper, the authors studied certain properties of the estimate of Liang and Krishnaiah (1985, J. Multivariate Anal. 16, 162–172) for multivariate binary density. An alternative shrinkage estimate is also obtained. The above results are generalized to general orthonormal systems.     

Sur Les Groupes D’Homotopie Des Espaces Dont La Cohomologie Modulo 2 Est Nilpotente

The main object of this note is to prove the following generalisation of a theorem of Serre. A simply connected space of finite type whose mod. 2 cohomology is nilpotent (and non-trivial) has infinitely many homotopy groups which are not of odd torsion. Incidentally we show that for every fibrationF( _→ ^ί )E ( _→ ^p )B, satisfying certain mild conditions, the following holds. If a classx in the mod. 2 cohomology ofE belongs to the kernel ofi*, then some power ofx belongs to the ideal generated by the image underp* of the mod. 2 reduced cohomology ofB.
