On Some Properties of the Dirichlet Problem at Resonance

2008

Abstract The boundary value problem at resonance 𝑥″ + 𝑥 = 𝑞 sin 𝑡 + 𝑓(𝑡,𝑥,𝑥′), 𝑥(0) = 0, 𝑥(π) = 0, is considered, where 𝑓 : [0,π] × 𝑹2 → 𝑹 is a bounded Carathéodory function, 𝑞 is a parameter. We state the multiplicity results without assuming that 𝑓 has limits.

Differential equations over polynomially bounded o-minimal structures

2002

We investigate the asymptotic behavior at +∞ of non-oscillatory solutions to differential equations y' = G(t, y), t > a, where G: R 1+l → R l is definable in a polynomially bounded o-minimal structure. In particular, we show that the Pfaffian closure of a polynomially bounded o-minimal structure on the real field is levelled.

Suppose thatG is a finitep-solvable group and letPe Syl p (G). In this note, we prove that the character table ofG determines ifN G(itP)/P is abelian.

Estimating norms inC*-algebras of discrete groups

1976

LetG be a discrete group, letK be a finite subset ofG and let χ K be the characteristic function ofK. Then χ K acts by convolution as a bounded operator onL2(G). We will prove that the norm |||χ K ||| of this operator always satisfies the following estimate: $$|||\chi _{\rm K} |||^2 \leqq k + 2\sqrt {w\left( {k - 1} \right)\left( {k - w} \right)} + \left( {k - 2} \right)\left( {k - w} \right)$$ . Here .

Remarks on the semivariation of vector measures with respect to Banach spaces.

2007

Suppose that and . It is shown that any Lp(µ)-valued measure has finite L2(v)-semivariation with respect to the tensor norm for 1 ≤ p < ∞ and finite Lq(v)-semivariation with respect to the tensor norm whenever either q = 2 and 1 ≤ p ≤ 2 or q > max{p, 2}. However there exist measures with infinite Lq-semivariation with respect to the tensor norm for any 1 ≤ q < 2. It is also shown that the measure m (A) = χA has infinite Lq-semivariation with respect to the tensor norm if q < p.

Product of nilpotent subgroups

2000

We will say that a subgroup X of G satisfies property C in G if \({\rm C}_{G}(X\cap X^{{g}})\leqq X\cap X^{{g}}\) for all \({g}\in G\). We obtain that if X is a nilpotent subgroup satisfying property C in G, then XF(G) is nilpotent. As consequence it follows that if \(N\triangleleft G\) is nilpotent and X is a nilpotent subgroup of G then \(C_G(N\cap X)\leqq X\) implies that NX is nilpotent.¶We investigate the relationship between the maximal nilpotent subgroups satisfying property C and the nilpotent injectors in a finite group.

A partition of characters associated to nilpotent subgroups

1999

IfG is a finite solvable group andH is a maximal nilpotent subgroup ofG containingF(G), we show that there is a canonical basisP(G|H) of the space of class functions onG vanishing off anyG-conjugate ofH which consists of characters. ViaP(G|H) it is possible to partition the irreducible characters ofG into “blocks”. These behave like Brauerp-blocks and a Fong theory for them can be developed.

A conjecture on the number of conjugacy classes in ap-solvable group

1996

IfG is ap-solvable group, it is conjectured that k(G/O P (G) ≤ |G| p ′. The conjecture is easily obtained for solvable groups as a consequence of R. Knorr’s work on the k(GV) problem. Also, a related result is obtained: k(G/F(G)) is bounded by the index of a nilpotent injector ofG.

A note on lower bounds of norms of averaging operators

2000

For any natural number n we obtain some examples of continuous onto maps $\phi : S\,\,\longrightarrow\, \,T$ for which Ditor's set $\Delta _\phi ^2(2, 2)$ is empty but every averaging operator for $\phi $ has norm greater or equal to 2n + 1.
