Complete convergence for arrays

Let {(X _nk , 1≤k≤n),n≥1}, be an array of rowwise independent random variables. We extend and generalize some recent results due to Hu, Móricz and Taylor concerning complete convergence, in the sense of Hsu and Robbins, of the sequence of rowwise arithmetic means.     

On computing the number of subgroups of a finite Abelian group

We consider the numberN _A (r) of subgroups of orderp ^r ofA, whereA is a finite Abelianp-group of type =₁,₂,..., _l ()), i.e. the direct sum of cyclic groups of order ⁱⁱ. Formulas for computingN _A (r) are well known. Here we derive a recurrence relation forN _A (r), which enables us to prove a conjecture of P. E. Dyubyuk about congruences betweenN _A (r) and the Gaussian binomial coefficient .     

Spline collocation for strongly elliptic equations on the torus

Summary We prove convergence and error estimates in Sobolev spaces for the collocation method with tensor product splines for strongly elliptic pseudodifferential equations on the torus. Examples of applications include elliptic partial differential equations with periodic boundary conditions but also the classical boundary integral operators of potential theory on torus-shaped domains in three or more dimensions. For odd-degree splines, we prove convergence of nodal collocation for any strongly elliptic operator. For even-degree splines and midpoint collocation, we find an additional condition for the convergence which is satisfied for the classical boundary integral operators. Our analysis is a generalization to higher dimensions of the corresponding analysis of Arnold and Wendland [4].     

Conjectured statistics for the q,t-Catalan numbers

We introduce the distribution function F_n(q,t) of a pair of statistics on Catalan words and conjecture F_n(q,t) equals Garsia and Haiman's q,t-Catalan sequence C_n(q,t), which they defined as a sum of rational functions. We show that F_n,s(q,t), defined as the sum of these statistics restricted to Catalan words ending in s ones, satisfies a recurrence relation. As a corollary we are able to verify that F_n(q,t)=C_n(q,t) when t=1/q. We also show the partial symmetry relation F_n(q,1)=F_n(1,q). By modifying a proof of Haiman of a q-Lagrange inversion formula based on results of Garsia and Gessel, we obtain a q-analogue of the general Lagrange inversion formula which involves Catalan words grouped according to the number of ones at the end of the word.     

Independence of ? in Lafforgue's theorem

Let X be a smooth curve over a finite field of characteristic p, let ?≠p be a prime number, and let be an irreducible lisse -sheaf on X whose determinant is of finite order. By a theorem of L. Lafforgue, for each prime number ?′≠p, there exists an irreducible lisse -sheaf on X which is compatible with , in the sense that at every closed point x of X, the characteristic polynomials of Frobenius at x for and are equal. We prove an “independence of ?” assertion on the fields of definition of these irreducible ?′-adic sheaves : namely, that there exists a number field F such that for any prime number ?′≠p, the -sheaf above is defined over the completion of F at one of its ?′-adic places.     

On W-solvability for special vectorial Hamilton-Jacobi systems

We study the solvability of special vectorial Hamilton-Jacobi systems of the form F(Du(x))=0 in a Sobolev space. In this paper we establish the general existence theorems for certain Dirichlet problems using suitable approximation schemes called W^1,p-reduction principles that generalize the similar reduction principle for Lipschitz solutions. Our approach, to a large extent, unifies the existing methods for the existence results of the special Hamilton-Jacobi systems under study. The method relies on a new Baire's category argument concerning the residual continuity of a Baire-one function. Some sufficient conditions for W^1,p-reduction are also given along with certain generalization of some known results and a specific application to the boundary value problem for special weakly quasiregular mappings.     

Asymptotic dynamics of nonlinear Schrödinger equations with many bound states

We consider a nonlinear Schrödinger equation with a bounded localized potential in . The linear Hamiltonian is assumed to have three or more bound states with the eigenvalues satisfying some resonance conditions. Suppose that the initial data is localized and small of order n in H¹, and that its ground state component is larger than n^3−ε with ε>0 small. We prove that the solution will converge locally to a nonlinear ground state as the time tends to infinity.
