Multilinear forms and measures of dependence between random variables

Based on an idea of Rosenblatt, the methods of interpolation theory are used to establish moment inequalities and equivalence relations for measures of dependence between two or more families of random variables. A couple of “interpolation” theorems proved here appear to be new.     

Multilinear Calderón-Zygmund Operators and Their Commutators with BMO Functions in Herz-Morrey Spaces with Variable Smoothness and Integrability

In this paper, we obtain that multilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators and their commutators with BMO functions are bounded on products of Herz-Morrey spaces with variable smoothness and integrability. The vector-valued setting of multilinear Calderón-Zygmund operators is also considered.     

A proof of Markov's theorem for polynomials on Banach spaces

Our object is to present an independent proof of the extension of V.A. Markov's theorem to Gâteaux derivatives of arbitrary order for continuous polynomials on any real normed linear space. The statement of this theorem differs little from the classical case for the real line except that absolute values are replaced by norms. Our proof depends only on elementary computations and explicit formulas and gives a new proof of the classical theorem as a special case. Our approach makes no use of the classical polynomial inequalities usually associated with Markov's theorem. Instead, the essential ingredients are a Lagrange interpolation formula for the Chebyshev nodes and a Christoffel-Darboux identity for the corresponding bivariate Lagrange polynomials. We use these tools to extend a single variable inequality of Rogosinski to the case of two real variables. The general Markov theorem is an easy consequence of this.     

A dynamic gradient approach to Pareto optimization with nonsmooth convex objective functions

In a general Hilbert framework, we consider continuous gradient-like dynamical systems for constrained multiobjective optimization involving nonsmooth convex objective functions. Based on the Yosida regularization of the subdifferential operators involved in the system, we obtain the existence of strong global trajectories. We prove a descent property for each objective function, and the convergence of trajectories to weak Pareto minima. This approach provides a dynamical endogenous weighting of the objective functions, a key property for applications in cooperative games, inverse problems, and numerical multiobjective optimization.     

Multi-way dual Cheeger constants and spectral bounds of graphs

We introduce a set of multi-way dual Cheeger constants and prove universal higher-order dual Cheeger inequalities for eigenvalues of normalized Laplace operators on weighted finite graphs. Our proof proposes a new spectral clustering phenomenon deduced from metrics on real projective spaces. We further extend those results to a general reversible Markov operator and find applications in characterizing its essential spectrum.     

Existence of pulses in excitable media with nonlocal coupling

We prove the existence of fast traveling pulse solutions in excitable media with non-local coupling. Existence results had been known, until now, in the case of local, diffusive coupling and in the case of a discrete medium, with finite-range, non-local coupling. Our approach replaces methods from geometric singular perturbation theory, that had been crucial in previous existence proofs, by a PDE oriented approach, relying on exponential weights, Fredholm theory, and commutator estimates.     

The localized longitudinal index theorem for Lie groupoids and the van Est map

We define the “localized index” of longitudinal elliptic operators on Lie groupoids associated with Lie algebroid cohomology classes. We derive a topological expression for these numbers using the algebraic index theorem for Poisson manifolds on the dual of the Lie algebroid. Underlying the definition and computation of the localized index, is an action of the Hopf algebroid of jets around the unit space, and the characteristic map it induces on Lie algebroid cohomology. This map can be globalized to differentiable groupoid cohomology, giving a definition of the “global index”, that can be computed by localization. This correspondence between the “global” and “localized” index is given by the van Est map for Lie groupoids.     

Estimates of commutators for multilinear operators on Herz-type spaces

In this paper, the boundedness of mulitilinear commutator [b,T] on Herz-type space is considered, where T is a standard Calderón-Zygmund singular operator and b ∈ (BMO(Rn))m.     

严格循环的算子代数

设X是半自共轭的Banach空间,而A是B(X)的严格循环的交换子代数,考虑算子代数A的一些性质,这些性质与算子代数的自反性有关,而且这些性质为讨论A的自反性提供了理论基础.     

On unbounded subnormal operators

A minimal normal extension of unbounded subnormal operators is established and characterized and spectral inclusion theorem is proved. An inverse Cayley transform is constructed to obtain a closed unbounded subnormal operator from a bounded one. Two classes of unbounded subnormals viz analytic Toeplitz operators and Bergman operators are exhibited.
