The Paley--Wiener Theorem for the Generalized Radon Transform on the Plane

We consider the problem of reconstructing a function on the disk from its integrals over curves close to straight lines, i.e., the inversion problem for the generalized Radon transform. Necessary and sufficient conditions on the range of the generalized Radon transform are obtained for functions supported in a smaller disk under the additional condition that the curves that do not meet coincide with the corresponding straight lines.     

The Topology of Algebra: Combinatorics of Squaring

We study the graph each of whose edges connects an element of a given ring with the square of itself. For a finite commutative group (e.g., for the multiplicative group of coprime residue classes modulo a positive integer), we describe this graph explicitly: each of its connected components is an oriented attracting cycle equipped with identical -vertex rooted trees of special form whose roots reside on the cycle. We also compute the graphs of permutation groups on not too many elements and of the subgroups of even permutations; the connected components of these graphs are also uniformly equipped cycles.     

Rate of Convergence of a Stochastic Particle System for the Smoluchowski Coagulation Equation

By continuing the probabilistic approach of Deaconu et al. (2001), we derive a stochastic particle approximation for the Smoluchowski coagulation equations. A convergence result for this model is obtained. Under quite stringent hypothesis we obtain a central limit theorem associated with our convergence. In spite of these restrictive technical assumptions, the rate of convergence result is interesting because it is the first obtained in this direction and seems to hold numerically under weaker hypothesis. This result answers a question closely connected to the Open Problem 16 formulated by Aldous (1999).     

Hölderian Invariance Principle for Triangular Arrays of Random Variables

In this paper, we extend the Hölderian invariance principle of Lamperti [6] to the case of partial-sum processes based on a triangular array of row-wise independent random variables. As an application, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the almost sure (resp. in probability) weak Hölder convergence of partial-sum processes based on bootstrapped samples.     

Extremal Values of L-Functions Associated with Newforms in the Half-Plane of Absolute Convergence

We prove estimates for extremal values of L-functions associated with newforms f in the half-plane of absolute convergence of their Dirichlet series expansion. The proof is based on an effective version of Kronecker's approximation theorem and estimates for the Fourier coefficients of the newform f.     

Consistent values and the core in continuum market games with two types of players

The consistent value is an extension of the Shapley value to the class of games with non-transferable utility.? In this paper, the consistent value will be characterized for market games with a continuum of players of two types. We will show that for such games the consistent value need not belong to the core, and provide conditions under which there is equivalence between the two concepts.

Ergodic-theoretic properties of certain Bernoulli convolutions

The aim of this paper is to prove some fixed point theorems which generalize well known basic fixed point principles of nonlinear functional analysis. Moreover, we investigate the class of mappings f: X→ X, where X is a Banach space, for which one of the main conditions in the metric fixed point theory, namely the condition (1), is satisfied. We obtain essential applications of this fact. All our results are illustrated by suitable examples. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
