Hilbert polynomials and Arveson's curvature invariant

We define and study Hilbert polynomials for certain holomorphic Hilbert spaces. We obtain several estimates for these polynomials and their coefficients. Our estimates inspire us to investigate the connection between the leading coefficients of Hilbert polynomials for invariant subspaces of the symmetric Fock space and Arveson's curvature invariant for coinvariant subspaces. We are able to obtain some formulas relating the curvature invariant with other invariants. In particular, we prove that Arveson's version of the Gauss-Bonnet-Chern formula is true when the invariant subspaces are generated by any polynomials.     

Symmetric subvarieties in compactifications and the Radon transform on Riemannian symmetric spaces of noncompact type

We investigate the totally geodesic Radon transform which assigns a function to its integration over totally geodesic symmetric submanifolds in Riemannian symmetric spaces of noncompact type. Our main concern is focused on the injectivity and support theorem. Our approach is based on the projection slice theorem relating the totally geodesic Radon transform and the Fourier transforms on symmetric spaces. Our approach also uses the study of geometry concerned with the totally geodesic symmetric subvarieties in Riemannian symmetric spaces in terms of the cell structure of the Satake compactifications.

Diffraction by a wedge at skew incidence: integral representations of Cauchy-Carleman for the electromagnetic fields

An electromagnetic diffraction problem in a wedge shaped region is reduced to a system of coupled functional difference equations by means of Sommerfeld integrals and Malyuzhinets theorem. By introducing an integral operator it is shown that the solutions of this system of functional equations can be defined in terms of integral representations whose kernels are solutions of a singular integral equation of Cauchy-Carleman type for which an explicit solution is given.     

The Berezin transform and radial operators

We analyze the connection between compactness of operators on the Bergman space and the boundary behaviour of the corresponding Berezin transform. We prove that for a special class of operators that we call radial operators, an oscilation criterion is a sufficient condition under which the compactness of an operator is equivalent to the vanishing of the Berezin transform on the unit circle. We further study a special class of radial operators, i.e., Toeplitz operators with a radial symbol.

     

Equivalent quasi-norms on Lorentz spaces

We give new characterizations of Lorentz spaces by means of certain quasi-norms which are shown to be equivalent to the classical ones.

     

On the Bochner theorem on orthogonal operators

We prove the following theorem. Any isometric operator , that acts from the Hilbert space with nonnegative weight to the Hilbert space with nonnegative weight , allows for the integral representation

where the kernels and satisfy certain conditions that are necessary and sufficient for these kernels to generate the corresponding isometric operators.

     

A version of Burkholder's theorem for operator-weighted spaces

Let be an operator weight, i.e. a weight function taking values in the bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space . We prove that if the dyadic martingale transforms are uniformly bounded on for each dyadic grid in , then the Hilbert transform is bounded on as well, thus providing an analogue of Burkholder's theorem for operator-weighted -spaces. We also give a short new proof of Burkholder's theorem itself. Our proof is based on the decomposition of the Hilbert transform into ``dyadic shifts'.

     

Discrete groups actions and corresponding modules

We address the problem of interrelations between the properties of an action of a discrete group on a compact Hausdorff space and the algebraic and analytical properties of the module of all continuous functions over the algebra of invariant continuous functions . The present paper is a continuation of our joint paper with M. Frank and V. Manuilov. Here we prove some statements inverse to the ones obtained in that paper: we deduce properties of actions from properties of modules. In particular, it is proved that if for a uniformly continuous action the module is finitely generated projective over , then the cardinality of orbits of the action is finite and fixed. Sufficient conditions for existence of natural conditional expectations are obtained.

Lp(Rm × Rn) boundedness is considered for the multiple Marcinkiewicz integral. Some size conditions implying the LP(Rm × Rn) boundedness of the multiple Marcinkiewicz integral for some fixed 1 < p <∞ are obtained.
