On the Hartogs-Bochner phenomenon for CR functions in

Let be a compact, connected, -smooth and globally minimal hypersurface in which divides the projective space into two connected parts and . We prove that there exists a side, or , such that every continuous CR function on extends holomorphically to this side. Our proof of this theorem is a simplification of a result originally due to F. Sarkis.

     

An Expansion Formula for q-Series and Applications

In this paper the author proves a q-expansion formula which utilizes the Leibniz formula for the q-differential operator. This expansion leads to new proofs of the Rogers–Fine identity, the nonterminating ₆₅ summation formula, and Watson's q-analog of Whipple's theorem. Andrews' identities for sums of three squares and sums of three triangular numbers are also derived. Other identities of Andrews and new identities for Hecke type series are also discussed.     

The Homogeneous Hamilton–Jacobi and Bernoulli Equations Revisited, II

It is shown that the admissible solutions of the continuity and Bernoulli or Burgers' equations of a perfect one-dimensional liquid are conditioned by a relation established in 1949–1950 by Pauli, Morette, and Van Hove, apparently, overlooked so far, which, in our case, stipulates that the mass density is proportional to the second derivative of the velocity potential. Positivity of the density implies convexity of the potential, i.e., smooth solutions, no shock. Non-elementary and symmetric solutions of the above equations are given in analytical and numerical form. Analytically, these solutions are derived from the original Ansatz proposed in Ref. 1 and from the ensuing operations which show that they represent a particular case of the general implicit solutions of Burgers' equation. Numerically and with the help of an ad hoc computer program, these solutions are simulated for a variety of initial conditions called compatible if they satisfy the Morette–Van Hove formula and anti-compatible if the sign of the initial velocity field is reversed. In the latter case, singular behaviour is observed. Part of the theoretical development presented here is rephrased in the context of the Hopf–Lax formula whose domain of applicability for the solution of the Cauchy problem of the homogeneous Hamilton–Jacobi equation has recently been enlarged.     

Extraction of subsystems “Majorized” by the rademacher system

In this paper it is proved that from any uniformly bounded orthonormal system {f _n} _n=1 ^∞ of random variables defined on the probability space (Ω, ε, P), one can extract a subsystem {fni} _i ^{Emphasis>=1/∞} majorized in distribution by the Rademacher system on [0, 1]. This means that {

On thek dimensional Piatetski-Shapiro prime number theorem

Thek-dimensional Piatetski-Shapiro prime number problem fork⩾3 is studied. Let π(x ₁ c ₁,⋯,c _k ) denote the number of primesp withp⩽x, , where 1<c ₁<⋯<c _k are fixed constants. It is proved that π(x;c ₁,⋯,c _k ) has an asymptotic formula ifc ₁ ⁻¹ +⋯+c _k ⁻¹ >k−k/(4k ²+2).

The Wiener transform on the Besicovitch spaces

In his fundamental research on generalized harmonic analysis, Wiener proved that the integrated Fourier transform defined by is an isometry from a nonlinear space of functions of bounded average quadratic power into a nonlinear space of functions of bounded quadratic variation. We consider this Wiener transform on the larger, linear, Besicovitch spaces defined by the norm . We prove that maps continuously into the homogeneous Besov space for and , and is a topological isomorphism when .

     

En">Characters and Composition Factor Multiplicities for the Lie Superalgebra $${\mathfrak{g}}{\mathfrak{l}}$$ ( m / n )

The multiplicities a of simple modules L in the composition series of Kac modules V lambda for the Lie superalgebra (m/n ) were described by Serganova, leading to her solution of the character problem for (m/n ). In Serganova's algorithm all with nonzero a are determined for a given this algorithm, turns out to be rather complicated. In this Letter, a simple rule is conjectured to find all nonzero a for any given weight . In particular, we claim that for an r-fold atypical weight there are 2r distinct weights such that a = 1, and a = 0 for all other weights . Some related properties on the multiplicities a are proved, and arguments in favour of our main conjecture are given. Finally, an extension of the conjecture describing the inverse of the matrix of Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials is discussed.     

Some rapidly converging series for

Relevant connections of the results presented here with many other known series representations for are also pointed out.

     

Non-parametric Estimation for the M/G/∞ Queue

Given an M/G/ queue with input rate and service-time distribution G, we consider the problem of estimating and G from data on the queue-length process Q = (Q_t). Our motivation is to study departures of G from exponentiality, following recent work of Bingham and Dunham (1997, Ann. Inst. Statist. Math., 49, 667–679).     

On random algebraic polynomials

This paper provides asymptotic estimates for the expected number of real zeros and -level crossings of a random algebraic polynomial of the form , where are independent standard normal random variables and is a constant independent of . It is shown that these asymptotic estimates are much greater than those for algebraic polynomials of the form .
