Two-dimensional problem of two Coulomb centers at small intercenter distances

We use analytic methods to analyze the discrete spectrum for the problem (Z₁eZ₂)₂ in the united-atom limit (R ≪ 1) and obtain asymptotic expansions for the quantum defect and energy terms of the system (Z₁eZ₂)₂ at small intercenter distances R up to terms of the order O(R⁶). We investigate the effect of the dimensionality factor on the energy spectrum of the hydrogen molecular ion H ₂ ⁺ . __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 148, No. 2, pp. 269–287, August, 2006.     

Bessel capacities and rectangular differentiation in Besov spaces

We consider the differentiation of integrals of functions in Besov spaces with respect to the basis of arbitrarily oriented rectangular parallelepipeds in Rn. We study almost everywhere convergence with respect to Bessel capacities. These outer measures are more sensitive than n-dimensional Lebesgue measure, and therefore we improve the positive results in [H. Aimar, L. Forzani, V. Naibo, Rectangular differentiation of integrals of Besov functions, Math. Res. Lett. 9 (2-3) (2002) 173-189].     

A characterization of generalized poles of generalized Nevanlinna functions

Generalized poles of a generalized Nevanlinna function Q ∈ ??_κ (??) are defined in terms of the operator representation of Q . In this paper those generalized poles that are not of positive type and their degrees of non‐positivity are characterized analytically by means of pole cancellation functions.

On classes of analytic functions defined by convolution with incomplete beta functions

Carlson and Shaffer [SIAM J. Math. Anal. 15 (1984) 737-745] defined a convolution operator L(a,c) on the class A of analytic functions involving an incomplete beta function ?(a,c;z) as L(a,c)f=?(a,c)?f. We use this operator to introduce certain classes of analytic functions in the unit disk and study their properties including some inclusion results, coefficient and radius problems. It is shown that these classes are closed under convolution with convex functions.

LU factorizations, q = 0 limits, and p-adic interpretations of some q-hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials

For little q-Jacobi polynomials and q-Hahn polynomials we give particular q-hypergeometric series representations in which the termwise q = 0 limit can be taken. When rewritten in matrix form, these series representations can be viewed as LU factorizations. We develop a general theory of LU factorizations related to complete systems of orthogonal polynomials with discrete orthogonality relations which admit a dual system of orthogonal polynomials. For the q = 0 orthogonal limit functions we discuss interpretations on p-adic spaces. In the little 0-Jacobi case we also discuss product formulas.

A unified theory for coherent systems in reliability II. A unified viewpoint on multinary coherent systems through monotone coherence and relevance

Binary coherent system theory has played an important part in reliability. Its extension to (‘degradable’ or ‘multistate’ or) multinary systems has recently been considered in various papers, through various definitions. This paper studies the most general model for multinary systems, proposes a unified viewpoint on multinary coherent systems and gives unified arguments to apply and to investigate further the binary and multinary cases. In a more detailed way, the ‘helpful bridge’ lately proposed by Block and Savits¹ between the binary and multinary cases is completed and multinary systems then can be studied in terms of monotone binary coherent systems, introduced in a companion paper.² Through various results, multinary systems are examined in terms of structure functions and of life functions; fundamental relations for their analysis are obtained with their set characterizations; the main axis that can be retained among the numerous types of coherence is emphasized, in a unified way, through relevance; reliability models are examined through performance processes, life lengths and performance functions; and Birnbaum's factors of importance are thoroughly extended to the multinary case. Fundamental results proposed in previous studies are thus completed with a shorter unified approach.     

On a Measure of Non-compactness for Some Classical Operators

The measure of non-compactness is estimated from below for various operators, including the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator, the fractional maximal operator and the Hilbert transform, all acting between weighted Lebesgue spaces. The identity operator acting between weighted Lebesgue spaces and also between the counterparts of these spaces with variable exponents is similarly analysed. These results enable the lack of compactness of such operators to be quantified.
