Finite Intervals in the Lattice of Topologies

We discuss the question whether every finite interval in the lattice of all topologies on some set is isomorphic to an interval in the lattice of all topologies on a finite set – or, equivalently, whether the finite intervals in lattices of topologies are, up to isomorphism, exactly the duals of finite intervals in lattices of quasiorders. The answer to this question is in the affirmative at least for finite atomistic lattices. Applying recent results about intervals in lattices of quasiorders, we see that, for example, the five-element modular but non-distributive lattice cannot be an interval in the lattice of topologies. We show that a finite lattice whose greatest element is the join of two atoms is an interval of T ₀-topologies iff it is the four-element Boolean lattice or the five-element non-modular lattice. But only the first of these two selfdual lattices is an interval of orders because order intervals are known to be dually locally distributive.     

Nonclassical multidimensional singular integral operators on R + n+1

Banach algebras of certain bounded operators acting on the half-spaceL _p (R ₊ ⁿ⁺¹ ,x ₀ ) (1<p<, –1<<p–1) are defined which contain for example Wiener-Hopf operators, defined by multidimensional singular convolution integral operators, as well as certain singular integral operators with fixed singularities. Moreover the symbol may be a positive homogeneous function only piecewise continuous on the unit sphere. Actually these multidimensional singular integral operators may be not Calderón-Zygmund operators but are built up by those in lower dimensions. This paper is a continuation of a joint paper of the author together with R.V. Duduchava [10]. The purpose is to investigate invertibility or Fredholm properties of these operators, while the continuity is given by definition. This is done in [10] forp=2 and –1<<1, and in the present paper forL _p (R ₊ ⁿ⁺¹ ,x ₀ ) with 1<p< and –1<<p–1.     

Effect of geometry on magnetization distortion in closed-circuit magnetic measurements

The effect of specimen geometry on magnetization distortion in closed-circuit measurements is reported in this letter. The degree of the distortion increases as the ratio of length to diameter (L/D) of specimen decreases, and the distortion can reduce the magnetization values as much as 42% when the applied magnetic field is 24 kOe and the L/D is 0.28. The type of magnetic material also affects the distortion. Although the phenomenon seems to be similar to the “image effect” that occurs in open-circuit measurements, reports of this effect in closed-circuit measurements have not been found in the literature. Further research effort, including 3D computer modeling, for understanding this magnetic phenomenon is underway and will be reported later.     

Local radial Phragmén-Lindelöf estimates for plurisubharmonic functions on analytic varieties

We give a sufficient condition for a local radial Phragmén-Lindelöf principle on analytic varieties. This condition is expressed in terms of existence of hyperbolic directions.

     

Stable categories of higher preprojective algebras

We introduce (n+1)$(n+1)$-preprojective algebras of algebras of global dimension n$n$. We show that if an algebra is n$n$-representation-finite then its (n+1)$(n+1)$-preprojective algebra is self-injective. In this situation, we show that the stable module category of the (n+1)$(n+1)$-preprojective algebra is (n+1)$(n+1)$-Calabi–Yau, and, more precisely, it is the (n+1)$(n+1)$-Amiot cluster category of the stable n$n$-Auslander algebra of the original algebra. In particular this stable category contains an (n+1)$(n+1)$-cluster tilting object. We show that even if the (n+1)$(n+1)$-preprojective algebra is not self-injective, under certain assumptions (which are always satisfied for n∈{1,2}$n\in \{1,2\}$) the results above still hold for the stable category of Cohen–Macaulay modules.     

Embedding Structures

 For any quasiordered set (`quoset') or topological space S, the set Sub S of all nonempty subquosets or subspaces is quasiordered by embeddability. Given any cardinal number n, denote by p _n and q _n the smallest size of spaces S such that each poset, respectively, quoset with n points is embeddable in Sub S. For finite n, we prove the inequalities n + 1 ≤p _n ≤q _n ≤p _n + l(n) + l(l(n)), where l(n) = min{k∈ℕ∣n≤2 ^k }. For the smallest size b _n of spaces S so that Sub S contains a principal filter isomorphic to the power set ?(n), we show n + l(n) − 1 ≤b _n ≤n + l(n) + l(l(n))+2. Since p _n ≤b _n , we thus improve recent results of McCluskey and McMaster who obtained p _n ≤n ². For infinite n, we obtain the equation b _n = p _n = q _n = n.

Asymptotic regularity of solutions to Hartree–Fock equations with Coulomb potential

We study the asymptotic regularity of solutions to Hartree–Fock (HF) equations for Coulomb systems. To deal with singular Coulomb potentials, Fock operators are discussed within the calculus of pseudo‐differential operators on conical manifolds. First, the non‐self‐consistent‐field case is considered, which means that the functions that enter into the nonlinear terms are not the eigenfunctions of the Fock operator itself. We introduce asymptotic regularity conditions on the functions that build up the Fock operator, which guarantee ellipticity for the local part of the Fock operator on the open stretched cone ?₊ × S². This proves the existence of a parametrix with a corresponding smoothing remainder from which it follows, via a bootstrap argument, that the eigenfunctions of the Fock operator again satisfy asymptotic regularity conditions. Using a fixed‐point approach based on Cancès and Le Bris analysis of the level‐shifting algorithm, we show via another bootstrap argument that the corresponding self‐consistent‐field solutions to the HF equation have the same type of asymptotic regularity.

Approximationseigenschaft,Lifting und Kohomologie bei lokalkonvexen Produktgarben

Motivated by examples like spaces of solutions of hypoelliptic operators, we treat product sheaves, prove density theorems in connection with the approximation property and use them for results on liftings and the vanishing of cohomology groups. Theorems of this type (2.4,2.9,3.3) are derived on regular subsets (2.3) of a product for product sheaves, where one factor has essentially a partition of unity. In the case of the compact open topology, we obtain the approximation property on arbitrary open subsets by a localization principle (4.5,4.9). The nuclearity of a sheaf in the co-topology turns out to imply strong nuclearity (1.11); the same is shown for the sheaf of holomorphic functions on the dual of a strongly nuclear (F)-space (1.12).
