A note on the complexity and tractability of the heat equation

We wish to solve the heat equation u_t=Δu-qu in I^d×(0,T), where I is the unit interval and T is a maximum time value, subject to homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions and to initial conditions u(·,0)=f over I^d. We show that this problem is intractable if f belongs to standard Sobolev spaces, even if we have complete information about q. However, if f and q belong to a reproducing kernel Hilbert space with finite-order weights, we can show that the problem is tractable, and can actually be strongly tractable.     

Sur les immeubles triangulaires et leurs automorphismes

Résumé  Les travaux de J. Tits ont conduit à la classification complète des immeubles euclidiens de dimension supérieure ou égale à 3. L’ensemble de ces immeubles à isomorphisme près est dénombrable et paramétré par les corps locaux qui leur correspondent. Dans cet article nous nous intéressons aux immeubles triangulaires, qui sont euclidiens de dimension 2 et pour lesquelles une paramétrisation analogue est impossible. Nous construisons une lamination Λ sur un espace topologique localement compact séparé, dont l’espace des feuilles est l’ensemble des immeubles triangulaires à isomorphisme près. On considère ainsi les immeubles triangulaires comme points d’un espace dont Λ est une désingularisation naturelle. Nous établissons des résultats de chirurgie sur les immeubles triangulaires à données locales fixées. Ils entra?nent par exemple que Λ est topologiquement transitive. Nous montrons qu’un immeuble triangulaire générique au sens de Baire a un groupe d’automorphismes trivial et qu’il contient toutes les géométries locales possibles. L’espace des immeubles triangulaires à isomorphisme près est un nouvel exemple d’espace non commutatif. Le second auteur a été en partie financé par JSPS.     

The Prime Spectrum and the Extended Prime Spectrum of Noncommutative Rings

We investigate the prime spectrum of a noncommutative ring and its spectral closure, the extended prime spectrum. We construct a ring for which the prime spectrum is a spectral space different from the extended prime spectrum and we construct a von Neumann regular ring for which the prime spectrum is not a spectral space.

Some conformally flat spin manifolds, Dirac operators and automorphic forms

In this paper we study Clifford and harmonic analysis on some examples of conformal flat manifolds that have a spinor structure, or more generally, at least a pin structure. The examples treated here are manifolds that can be parametrized by U/Γ where U is a subdomain of either Sn or Rn and Γ is a Kleinian group acting discontinuously on U. The examples studied here include RPn and the Hopf manifolds S¹×Sn−1. Also some hyperbolic manifolds will be treated. Special kinds of Clifford-analytic automorphic forms associated to the different choices of Γ are used to construct explicit Cauchy kernels, Cauchy integral formulas, Green's kernels and formulas together with Hardy spaces and Plemelj projection operators for Lp spaces of hypersurfaces lying in these manifolds.     

The Cauchy Problems and Global Solutions to the Deybe System and Burgers＇ Equations in Pseudomeasure Spaces

In this paper we consider the Cauchy problems of Burgers＇ equations and the Deybe system. Their existence and uniqueness of the time-global solutions for small initial data in some pseudomeasure spaces are obtained. The asymptotic stability of small solutions is proved. As an immediate result the existence and uniqueness of the self-similar solutions are also obtained provided the initial data satisfy the self-similar structures.

Characterizations of function spaces on the sphere using frames

In this paper we introduce a polynomial frame on the unit sphere of , for which every distribution has a wavelet-type decomposition. More importantly, we prove that many function spaces on the sphere , such as , and Besov spaces, can be characterized in terms of the coefficients in the wavelet decompositions, as in the usual Euclidean case . We also study a related nonlinear -term approximation problem on . In particular, we prove both a Jackson-type inequality and a Bernstein-type inequality associated to wavelet decompositions, which extend the corresponding results obtained by R. A. DeVore, B. Jawerth and V. Popov (``Compression of wavelet decompositions', Amer. J. Math. 114 (1992), no. 4, 737-785).

     

Approximations in Sobolev spaces by prolate spheroidal wave functions

Recently, there is a growing interest in the spectral approximation by the Prolate Spheroidal Wave Functions (PSWFs) ${\psi }_{n,c},c>0$. This is due to the promising new contributions of these functions in various classical as well as emerging applications from Signal Processing, Geophysics, Numerical Analysis, etc. The PSWFs form a basis with remarkable properties not only for the space of band-limited functions with bandwidth c, but also for the Sobolev space $H^s([?1,1])$. The quality of the spectral approximation and the choice of the parameter c when approximating a function in $H^s([?1,1])$ by its truncated PSWFs series expansion, are the main issues. By considering a function $f\in H^s([?1,1])$ as the restriction to $[?1,1]$ of an almost time-limited and band-limited function, we try to give satisfactory answers to these two issues. Also, we illustrate the different results of this work by some numerical examples.     

C0-estimates and smoothness of solutions to the parabolic equation defined by Kimura operators

Kimura diffusions serve as a stochastic model for the evolution of gene frequencies in population genetics. Their infinitesimal generator is an elliptic differential operator whose second-order coefficients matrix degenerates on the boundary of the domain. In this article, we consider the inhomogeneous initial-value problem defined by generators of Kimura diffusions, and we establish $C^0$-estimates, which allows us to prove that solutions to the inhomogeneous initial-value problem are smooth up to the boundary of the domain where the operator degenerates, even when the initial data is only assumed to be continuous.
