A Geometric Problem and the Hopf Lemma. Ⅱ

Abstract A classical result of A. D. Alexandrov states that a connected compact smooth n-dimensional manifold without boundary, embedded in ℝⁿ⁺¹, and such that its mean curvature is constant, is a sphere. Here we study the problem of symmetry of M in a hyperplane X_n+1 =constant in case M satisfies: for any two points (X′,X_n+1), on M, with , the mean curvature at the first is not greater than that at the second. Symmetry need not always hold, but in this paper, we establish it under some additional conditions. Some variations of the Hopf Lemma are also presented. Several open problems are described. Part I dealt with corresponding one dimensional problems. (Dedicated to the memory of Shiing-Shen Chern) * Partially supported by NSF grant DMS-0401118.     

一般矩阵函数的变差

设Sn是n次对称群,G为Sn的子群,χ是G的次数为1的特征标.如果A是一个n阶复变矩阵,定义一般矩阵函数dχG为dχG(A)=∑σ∈Gχ(σ)∏ni=1aiσ(i).本文用lp-算子范数(1≤p≤∞)的性质证明了一般矩阵函数变差的两个不等式.     

Square Integrable Representation of Groupoids

A notion of an irreducible representation, as well as of a square integrable representation on an arbitrary locally compact groupoid, is introduced. A generalization of a version of Schur＇s lemma on a locally compact groupoid is given. This is used in order to extend some well-known results from locally compact groups to the case of locally compact groupoids. Indeed, we have proved that if L is a continuous irreducible representation of a compact groupoid G defined by a continuous Hilbert bundle H = （Hu）u∈G^0, then each Hu is finite dimensional. It is also shown that if L is an irreducible representation of a principal locally compact groupoid defined by a Hilbert bundle （G^0, （Hu）,μ）, then dimHu = 1 （u ∈ G^0）. Furthermore it is proved that every square integrable representation of a locally compact groupoid is unitary equivalent to a subrepresentation of the left regular representation. Furthermore, for r-discrete groupoids, it is shown that every irreducible subrepresentation of the left regular representation is square integrable.

基于增广Lagrange函数的RQP方法

Recursive quadratic programming is a family of techniques developd by Bartholomew-Biggs and other authors for solving nonlinear programming problems.This paperdescribes a new method for constrained optimization which obtains its search di-rections from a quadratic programming subproblem based on the well-known aug-mented Lagrangian function.It avoids the penalty parameter to tend to infinity.We employ the Fletcher‘s exact penalty function as a merit function and the use of an approximate directional derivative of the function that avoids the need toevaluate the second order derivatives of the problem functions.We prove that thealgorithm possesses global and superlinear convergence properties.At the sametime, numerical results are reported.

浅析现代数学与物理中的几个概念

众所周知，现代数学研究的是各种量之间的可能的、一般说是各种变化着量的关系和相互联系．恩格斯在《反杜林论》中谈到数学的本质时，更强调指出，数学是反映现实世界的，它产生于人们的实际需要，它的初始概念和原理的建立是以经验为基础的长期历史的发展的结果．因此，数学从一开始就注定了与现实世界以及与研究物质运动的各种形态的最一般规律的基本学科——物理是密不可分的．     

带非局部源的退化奇异半线性抛物方程的爆破

本文研究带齐次Dirichlet边界条件的非局部退化奇异半线性抛物方程ut-(xαux)x=∫0af(u)dx在(0,a)×(0,T)内正解的爆破性质,建立了古典解的局部存在性与唯一性.在适当的假设条件下,得到了正解的整体存在性与有限时刻爆破的结论.本文还证明了爆破点集是整个区域,这与局部源情形不同.进而,对于特殊情形:f(u)=up,p>1及,f(u)=eu,精确地确定了爆破的速率.
