Recovery of Band-Limited Functions on Locally Compact Abelian Groups from Irregular Samples

Using the techniques of approximation and factorization of convolution operators we study the problem of irregular sampling of band-limited functions on a locally compact Abelian group G. The results of this paper relate to earlier work by Feichtinger and Gröchenig in a similar way as Kluvánek's work published in 1969 relates to the classical Shannon Sampling Theorem. Generally speaking we claim that reconstruction is possible as long as there is sufficient high sampling density. Moreover, the iterative reconstruction algorithms apply simultaneously to families of Banach spaces.     

Existence of an Angular Density of Roots of Entire Functions of Order Zero

We obtain sufficient conditions for the set of roots of an entire function of order zero of strongly regular growth to possess an angular density.     

Modularity and Total Ellipticity of Some Multiple Series of Hypergeometric Type

We collect some new evidence for the validity of the conjecture that every totally elliptic hypergeometric series is modular invariant and briefly discuss a generalization of such series to Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus.     

Resolution of Some Open Problems Concerning Multiple Zeta Evaluations of Arbitrary Depth

We prove some new evaluations for multiple polylogarithms of arbitrary depth. The simplest of our results is a multiple zeta evaluation one order of complexity beyond the well-known Broadhurst–Zagier formula. Other results we provide settle three of the remaining outstanding conjectures of Borwein, Bradley, and Broadhurst. A complete treatment of a certain arbitrary depth class of periodic alternating unit Euler sums is also given.     

Local Feasible QP-Free Algorithms for the Constrained Minimization of SC1 Functions

We consider the problem of minimizing an SC¹ function subject to inequality constraints. We propose a local algorithm whose distinguishing features are that: (a) a fast convergence rate is achieved under reasonable assumptions that do not include strict complementarity at the solution; (b) the solution of only linear systems is required at each iteration; (c) all the points generated are feasible. After analyzing a basic Newton algorithm, we propose some variants aimed at reducing the computational costs and, in particular, we consider a quasi-Newton version of the algorithm.     

Epi-Convergence and Lower and Epi-Upper Semicontinuous Approximations in Distribution

The paper introduces an extension of the epi-convergence, the lower semicontinuous approximation and the epi-upper semicontinuous approximation of random real functions in distribution. The new notions could be helpful tools for sensitivity analyzes of stochastic optimization problems. The research is evoked by S. Vogel and continues the research started by Vogel and the author.     

Integral transformations by the index of Lommel's function

In this paper we study a class of integral transformations with kernels consisting of Lommel's functions of a certain index. Boundedness properties, Parseval type formula, inversion theorem are proved in Lebesgue spaces of integrable functions. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

A Littlewood-Paley type inequality

In this note we prove the following theorem: Let u be a harmonic function in the unit ball and . Then there is a constant C = C(p, n) such that

New class of generating functions associated with generalized hypergeometric polynomials

In this paper authors prove a general theorem on generating relations for a certain sequence of functions. Many formulas involving the families of generating functions for generalized hypergeometric polynomials are shown here to be special cases of a general class of generating functions involving generalized hypergeometric polynomials and multiple hypergeometric series of several variables. It is then shown how the main result can be applied to derive a large number of generating functions involving hypergeometric functions of Kampé de Fériet, Srivastava, Srivastava-Daoust, Chaundy, Fasenmyer, Cohen, Pasternack, Khandekar, Rainville and other multiple Gaussian hypergeometric polynomials scattered in the literature of special functions.     

Rational Approximation of Analytic Functions Having Generalized Orders of Rate of Growth

Let f be holomorphic on a domain G C¯ and _n be the error in best approximation of f in the supremum norm on a compact set E G by rational functions of order n. We obtain results characterizing the degree of decrease of the best approximation _n in terms connected with the condenser (E,F), F=C¯ \ G¯, and the rate of growth of the maximum modulus of f(z). In particular, if f has a generalized order (, , f) in the domain G, thenlim sup_n (n)/ (log (1/log⁺((_{0 1} ....... _n)^1/n(n+1) ))) (, , f),where = exp (1/C(E,F)), C(E,F) is the capacity of the condenser (E,F).
