Partial inner product spaces, metric operators and generalized hermiticity
2013
Motivated by the recent developments of pseudo-hermitian quantum mechanics, we analyze the structure of unbounded metric operators in a Hilbert space. It turns out that such operators generate a canonical lattice of Hilbert spaces, that is, the simplest case of a partial inner product space (PIP space). Next, we introduce several generalizations of the notion of similarity between operators and explore to what extend they preserve spectral properties. Then we apply some of the previous results to operators on a particular PIP space, namely, a scale of Hilbert spaces generated by a metric operator. Finally, we reformulate the notion of pseudo-hermitian operators in the preceding formalism.
An algebraic representation of Steiner triple systems of order 13
2021
Abstract In this paper we construct an incidence structure isomorphic to a Steiner triple system of order 13 by defining a set B of twentysix vectors in the 13-dimensional vector space V = GF ( 5 ) 13 , with the property that there exist precisely thirteen 6-subsets of B whose elements sum up to zero in V , which can also be characterized as the intersections of B with thirteen linear hyperplanes of V .
Locally convex quasi $C^*$-normed algebras
2012
Abstract If A 0 [ ‖ ⋅ ‖ 0 ] is a C ∗ -normed algebra and τ a locally convex topology on A 0 making its multiplication separately continuous, then A 0 ˜ [ τ ] (completion of A 0 [ τ ] ) is a locally convex quasi ∗-algebra over A 0 , but it is not necessarily a locally convex quasi ∗-algebra over the C ∗ -algebra A 0 ˜ [ ‖ ⋅ ‖ 0 ] (completion of A 0 [ ‖ ⋅ ‖ 0 ] ). In this article, stimulated by physical examples, we introduce the notion of a locally convex quasi C ∗ -normed algebra, aiming at the investigation of A 0 ˜ [ τ ] ; in particular, we study its structure, ∗-representation theory and functional calculus.
Nonlinear Nonhomogeneous Elliptic Problems
2019
We consider nonlinear elliptic equations driven by a nonhomogeneous differential operator plus an indefinite potential. The boundary condition is either Dirichlet or Robin (including as a special case the Neumann problem). First we present the corresponding regularity theory (up to the boundary). Then we develop the nonlinear maximum principle and present some important nonlinear strong comparison principles. Subsequently we see how these results together with variational methods, truncation and perturbation techniques, and Morse theory (critical groups) can be used to analyze different classes of elliptic equations. Special attention is given to (p, 2)-equations (these are equations driven…
Maximal Operators with Respect to the Numerical Range
2018
Let $\mathfrak{n}$ be a nonempty, proper, convex subset of $\mathbb{C}$. The $\mathfrak{n}$-maximal operators are defined as the operators having numerical ranges in $\mathfrak{n}$ and are maximal with this property. Typical examples of these are the maximal symmetric (or accretive or dissipative) operators, the associated to some sesquilinear forms (for instance, to closed sectorial forms), and the generators of some strongly continuous semi-groups of bounded operators. In this paper the $\mathfrak{n}$-maximal operators are studied and some characterizations of these in terms of the resolvent set are given.
Four solutions for fractional p-Laplacian equations with asymmetric reactions
2020
We consider a Dirichlet type problem for a nonlinear, nonlocal equation driven by the degenerate fractional p-Laplacian, whose reaction combines a sublinear term depending on a positive parameter and an asymmetric perturbation (superlinear at positive infinity, at most linear at negative infinity). By means of critical point theory and Morse theory, we prove that, for small enough values of the parameter, such problem admits at least four nontrivial solutions: two positive, one negative, and one nodal. As a tool, we prove a Brezis-Oswald type comparison result.
Symmetry of minimizers with a level surface parallel to the boundary
2015
We consider the functional $$I_\Omega(v) = \int_\Omega [f(|Dv|) - v] dx,$$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain and $f$ is a convex function. Under general assumptions on $f$, G. Crasta [Cr1] has shown that if $I_\Omega$ admits a minimizer in $W_0^{1,1}(\Omega)$ depending only on the distance from the boundary of $\Omega$, then $\Omega$ must be a ball. With some restrictions on $f$, we prove that spherical symmetry can be obtained only by assuming that the minimizer has one level surface parallel to the boundary (i.e. it has only a level surface in common with the distance). We then discuss how these results extend to more general settings, in particular to functionals that are not differenti…
On stability of generic subriemannian caustic in the three-space
2000
Abstract The singularities of exponential mappings in subriemannian geometry are interesting objects, that are already non-trivial at the local level, contrarily to their Riemannian analogs. The simplest case is the three-dimensional contact case. Here we show that the corresponding generic caustics have moduli at the origin, and the first module that occurs has a simple geometric interpretation. On the contrary, we prove a stability result of the “big wave front”, that is, of the graph of the multivalued arclength function, reparametrized in a certain way. This object is a three-dimensional surface, which has also the natural structure of a wave front. The projection on the three-dimension…
Fixed point results on metric-type spaces
2014
Abstract In this paper we obtain fixed point and common fixed point theorems for self-mappings defined on a metric-type space, an ordered metric-type space or a normal cone metric space. Moreover, some examples and an application to integral equations are given to illustrate the usability of the obtained results.
Some new extensions of Edelstein-Suzuki-type fixed point theorem to G-metric and G-cone metric spaces
2013
Abstract In this paper, we prove some fixed point theorems for generalized contractions in the setting of G -metric spaces. Our results extend a result of Edelstein [M. Edelstein, On fixed and periodic points under contractive mappings, J. London Math. Soc., 37 (1962), 74–79] and a result of Suzuki [T. Suzuki, A new type of fixed point theorem in metric spaces, Nonlinear Anal., 71 (2009), 5313–5317]. We prove, also, a fixed point theorem in the setting of G -cone metric spaces.
