Maximal regularity for Kolmogorov operators in L2 spaces with respect to invariant measures
2006
Abstract We prove an optimal embedding result for the domains of Kolmogorov (or degenerate hypoelliptic Ornstein–Uhlenbeck) operators in L 2 spaces with respect to invariant measures. We use an interpolation method together with optimal L 2 estimates for the space derivatives of T ( t ) f near t = 0 , where T ( t ) is the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck semigroup and f is any function in L 2 .
Context Trees, Variable Length Markov Chains and Dynamical Sources
2012
Infinite random sequences of letters can be viewed as stochastic chains or as strings produced by a source, in the sense of information theory. The relationship between Variable Length Markov Chains (VLMC) and probabilistic dynamical sources is studied. We establish a probabilistic frame for context trees and VLMC and we prove that any VLMC is a dynamical source for which we explicitly build the mapping. On two examples, the "comb" and the "bamboo blossom", we find a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and the uniqueness of a stationary probability measure for the VLMC. These two examples are detailed in order to provide the associated Dirichlet series as well as the genera…
An example concerning the zero set of the Jacobian
2006
AbstractLet f∈W1,1(Ω,Rn) be a homeomorphism of finite distortion K. It is known that if K1/(n−1)∈L1(Ω), then the Jacobian Jf of f is positive almost everywhere in Ω. We will show that this integrability assumption on K is sharp in any Orlicz-scale: if α is increasing function (satisfying minor technical assumptions) such that limt→∞α(t)=∞, then there exists f such that K1/(n−1)/α(K)∈L1(Ω) and Jf vanishes in a set of positive measure.
Schaefer–Krasnoselskii fixed point theorems using a usual measure of weak noncompactness
2012
Abstract We present some extension of a well-known fixed point theorem due to Burton and Kirk [T.A. Burton, C. Kirk, A fixed point theorem of Krasnoselskii–Schaefer type, Math. Nachr. 189 (1998) 423–431] for the sum of two nonlinear operators one of them compact and the other one a strict contraction. The novelty of our results is that the involved operators need not to be weakly continuous. Finally, an example is given to illustrate our results.
On the conical density properties of measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$
2005
We compare conical density properties and spherical density properties for general Borel measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$ . As a consequence, we obtain results for packing and Hausdorff measures $\mathcal{P}_h$ and $\mathcal{H}_h$ provided that the gauge function $h$ satisfies certain conditions. One consequence of our general results is the following: let $m, n\,{\in}\,\mathbb{N}, 0\,{\lt}\,s\,{\lt}\,m\,{\leq}\,n$ , $0\,{\lt}\,\eta\,{\lt}\,1$ , and suppose that $V$ is an $m$ -dimensional linear subspace of $\mathbb{R}^n$ . Let $\mu$ be either the $s$ -dimensional Hausdorff measure or the $s$ -dimensional packing measure restricted to a set $A$ with $\mu(A)\,{\lt}\,\infty$ . Then for $\mu$ -almos…
A Note on Algebraic Sums of Subsets of the Real Line
2002
AbstractWe investigate the algebraic sums of sets for a large class of invari-ant ˙-ideals and ˙- elds of subsets of the real line. We give a simpleexample of two Borel subsets of the real line such that its algebraicsum is not a Borel set. Next we show a similar result to Proposition 2from A. Kharazishvili paper [4]. Our results are obtained for ideals withcoanalytical bases. 1 Introduction We shall work in ZFC set theory. By !we denote natural numbers. By 4wedenote the symmetric di erence of sets. The cardinality of a set Xwe denoteby jXj. By R we denote the real line and by Q we denote rational numbers. IfAand Bare subsets of R n and b2R , then A+B= fa+b: a2A^b2Bgand A+ b= A+ fbg. Simila…
On a representation theorem for finitely exchangeable random vectors
2016
A random vector $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ with the $X_i$ taking values in an arbitrary measurable space $(S, \mathscr{S})$ is exchangeable if its law is the same as that of $(X_{\sigma(1)}, \ldots, X_{\sigma(n)})$ for any permutation $\sigma$. We give an alternative and shorter proof of the representation result (Jaynes \cite{Jay86} and Kerns and Sz\'ekely \cite{KS06}) stating that the law of $X$ is a mixture of product probability measures with respect to a signed mixing measure. The result is "finitistic" in nature meaning that it is a matter of linear algebra for finite $S$. The passing from finite $S$ to an arbitrary one may pose some measure-theoretic difficulties which are avoided by our p…
Cores for parabolic operators with unbounded coefficients
2009
Abstract Let A = ∑ i , j = 1 N q i j ( s , x ) D i j + ∑ i = 1 N b i ( s , x ) D i be a family of elliptic differential operators with unbounded coefficients defined in R N + 1 . In [M. Kunze, L. Lorenzi, A. Lunardi, Nonautonomous Kolmogorov parabolic equations with unbounded coefficients, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., in press], under suitable assumptions, it has been proved that the operator G : = A − D s generates a semigroup of positive contractions ( T p ( t ) ) in L p ( R N + 1 , ν ) for every 1 ⩽ p + ∞ , where ν is an infinitesimally invariant measure of ( T p ( t ) ) . Here, under some additional conditions on the growth of the coefficients of A , which cover also some growths with an ex…
M-valued Measure of Roughness for Approximation of L-fuzzy Sets and Its Topological Interpretation
2015
We develop a scheme allowing to measure the “quality” of rough approximation of fuzzy sets. This scheme is based on what we call “an approximation quadruple” \((L,M,\varphi ,\psi )\) where L and M are cl-monoids (in particular, \(L=M=[0,1]\)) and \(\psi : L \rightarrow M\) and \(\varphi : M \rightarrow L\) are satisfying certain conditions mappings (in particular, they can be the identity mappings). In the result of realization of this scheme we get measures of upper and lower rough approximation for L-fuzzy subsets of a set equipped with a reflexive transitive M-fuzzy relation R. In case the relation R is also symmetric, these measures coincide and we call their value by the measure of rou…
The Star Height One Problem for Irreducible Automata
1993
The star height of a regular expression is, informally, the maximum number of nested stars in the expression. The star height of a regular language is the minimal star height of a regular expression denoting this language. The notion of star height indicates in a certain sense the “loop complexity” of a regular expression and thus it gives a measure of the complexity of a regular language.
