An isolic generalization of Cauchy's theorem for finite groups

In his note [5] Hausner states a simple combinatorial principle, namely:

On a question of H. Kraljević

In this paper, assuming a certain set-theoretic hypothesis, a positive answer is given to a question of H. Kraljevi, namely it is shown that there exists a Lebesgue measurable subsetA of the real line such that the set {c R: A + cA contains an interval} is nonmeasurable. Here the setA + cA = {a + ca: a, a A}. Two other results about sets of the formA + cA are presented.     

The Binet-Pexider functional equation for rectangular matrices

IfK is a field of characteristic 0 then the following is shown. Iff, g, h: M _n (K) K are non-constant solutions of the Binet—Pexider functional equation

A new Pythagorean functional equation

The purpose of this paper is to solve the following Pythagorean functional equation:(e ^p(x,y) ) ² ) = q(x,y) ² + r(x, y) ², where each ofp(x,y), q(x, y) andr(x, y) is a real-valued unknown harmonic function of the real variablesx, y on the wholexy-planeR ².The result is as follows.

On the error of compound quadrature formulas forr-convex functions

LetC _m be a compound quadrature formula, i.e.C _m is obtained by dividing the interval of integration [a, b] intom subintervals of equal length, and applying the same quadrature formulaQ _n to every subinterval. LetR _m be the corresponding error functional. Iff ^(r) > 0 impliesR _m [f] > 0 (orR _m [f] < 0),=" then=" we=" say=">C _m is positive definite (or negative definite, respectively) of orderr. This is the case for most of the well-known quadrature formulas. The assumption thatf ^(r) > 0 may be weakened to the requirement that all divided differences of orderr off are non-negative. Thenf is calledr-convex. Now letC _m be positive definite or negative definite of orderr, and letf be continuous andr-convex. We prove the following direct and inverse theorems for the errorR _m [f], where , denotes the modulus of continuity of orderr:

The Weierstrass mean

Theorem.Let the sequences {e _i ⁽ⁿ⁾ },i=1, 2, 3,n=0, 1, 2, ...be defined by where the e ⁽⁰⁾ s satisfy and where all square roots are taken positive. Then where the convergence is quadratic and monotone and where The discussions of convergence are entirely elementary. However, although the determination of the limits can be made in an elementary way, an acquaintance with elliptic objects is desirable for real understanding.

Applying Bittner's operational calculus we present a method to give approximate solutions of linear partial differential equations of first order

An exact formula for the measure dimensions associated with a class of piecewise linear maps

An exact formula for the various measure dimensions of attractors associated with contracting similitudes is given. An example is constructed showing that for more general affine maps the various measure dimensions are not always equal.Communicated by Michael F. Barnsley.     

Hölder exponents and box dimension for self-affine fractal functions

We consider some self-affine fractal functions previously studied by Barnsleyet al. The graphs of these functions are invariant under certain affine scalings, and we extend their definition to allow the use of nonlinear scalings. The Hölder exponent,h, for these fractal functions is calculated and we show that there is a larger Hölder exponent,h , defined at almost every point (with respect to Lebesgue measure). For a class of such functions defined using linear affinities these exponents are related to the box dimensionD _B of the graph byh2–D _Bh .Communicated by Michael F. Barnsley.
