A remark on Schatten-von Neumann properties of resolvent differences of generalized Robin Laplacians on bounded domains

In this note we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the s-numbers of the resolvent difference of two generalized self-adjoint, maximal dissipative or maximal accumulative Robin Laplacians on a bounded domain Ω with smooth boundary ∂Ω. For this we apply the recently introduced abstract notion of quasi boundary triples and Weyl functions from extension theory of symmetric operators together with Krein type resolvent formulae and well-known eigenvalue asymptotics of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on ∂Ω. It is shown that the resolvent difference of two generalized Robin Laplacians belongs to the Schatten-von Neumann class of any order p for which

     

Two-Parameter Analogs of the Heisenberg Enveloping Algebra

One-parameter analogs of the Heisenberg enveloping algebra were studied previously by Kirkman and Small. They demonstrated how one may obtain Hayashi's analog of the Weyl algebra as a primitive factor of this algebra. We consider various two-parameter versions of this problem. Of particular interest is the case when the parameters are dependent. Our study allows us to consider the representation theory of a two-parameter version of the Virasoro enveloping algebra.     

Signed graphs and the freeness of the Weyl subarrangements of type Bℓ

A Weyl arrangement is the hyperplane arrangement defined by a root system. Saito proved that every Weyl arrangement is free. The Weyl subarrangements of type $A_{\ell }$ are represented by simple graphs. Stanley gave a characterization of freeness for this type of arrangements in terms of their graph. In addition, the Weyl subarrangements of type $B_{\ell }$ can be represented by signed graphs. A characterization of freeness for them is not known. However, characterizations of freeness for a few restricted classes are known. For instance, Edelman and Reiner characterized the freeness of the arrangements between type $A_{\ell -1}$ and type $B_{\ell }$. In this paper, we give a characterization of the freeness and supersolvability of the Weyl subarrangements of type $B_{\ell }$ under certain assumption.     

A construction of representations of affine Weyl groups

Let G be a complex, semisimple, simply connected algebraic group withLie algebra . We extend scalars to the power series field in one variable C(()), and consider the space of Iwahori subalgebras containing a fixed nil-elliptic element of C(()),i.e. fixed point varieties on the full affine flag manifold. We definerepresentations of the affine Weyl group in the homology of these varieties,generalizing Kazhdan and Lusztig's topological construction of Springer'srepresentations to the affine context.
