Aliasing Effects and Sampling Theorems of Spherical Random Fields when Sampled on a Finite Grid

Aliasing effects are investigated for spherical random fields sampled on a finite grid. Using the spherical harmonics expansion, it is shown that for a band-limited spherical random field its trend and spectrum can be uniquely reconstructed from the sampled field if the sampling points are judiciously designed. Analytical expressions are also obtained for aliasing errors in the trend and the spectrum when the field is not band-limited.

Runge–Kutta methods for first-order periodic boundary value differential equations with piecewise constant arguments

In this paper we deal with the numerical solutions of Runge–Kutta methods for first-order periodic boundary value differential equations with piecewise constant arguments. The numerical solution is given by the numerical Green’s function. It is shown that Runge–Kutta methods preserve their original order for first-order periodic boundary value differential equations with piecewise constant arguments. We give the conditions under which the numerical solutions preserve some properties of the analytic solutions, e.g., uniqueness and comparison theorems. Finally, some experiments are given to illustrate our results.     

Remarks on the r and Δ convolutions

In this paper we study the properties of the r–deformation introduced in [B1]. We observe that the associated convolution coming from the conditionally free convolution is associative only for r = 1 and r = 0. We give the realization of some r–Gaussian random variables and obtain Haagerup–Pisier–Buchholz type inequalities. We also study another convolution defined with the use of the r–deformation through a moment–cumulant formula [KY1] and show that it is associative and in general not positive.

On formulas of Ramanujan and Evans

We give short elementary proofs of a formula of Ramanujan as interpreted by Bradley, and a companion formula originally proved by W. Chu. We also give an elementary proof of a generalization of an identity originally proved using modular functions and used to study a generating function for the number of partitions with specified crank.

Limit theorems for the canonical von Mises statistics with dependent data

We study the limit behavior of the canonical (i.e., degenerate) von Mises statistics based on samples from a sequence of weakly dependent stationary observations satisfying the ψ-mixing condition. The corresponding limit distributions are defined by the multiple stochastic integrals of nonrandom functions with respect to the nonorthogonal Hilbert noises generated by Gaussian processes with nonorthogonal increments.     

Embedding of analytic function spaces with given mean growth of the derivative

If ? is a positive function defined in [0, 1) and 0 < p < ∞, we consider the space ??(p, ?) which consists of all functions f analytic in the unit disc ?? for which the integral means of the derivative M _p (r, f ′) = 0 < r < 1, satisfy M _p (r, f ′) = O(? (r)), as r → 1. In this paper, for any given p ∈ (0, 1), we characterize the functions ?, among a certain class of weight functions, to be able to embedd ??(p, ?) into classical function spaces. These results complement other previously obtained by the authors for p ≥ 1. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
