Expecting the unexpected: Quantifying the persistence of unexpected hypersurfaces

2021

If $X \subset \mathbb P^n$ is a reduced subscheme, we say that $X$ admits an unexpected hypersurface of degree $t$ for multiplicity $m$ if the imposition of having multiplicity $m$ at a general point $P$ fails to impose the expected number of conditions on the linear system of hypersurfaces of degree $t$ containing $X$. Conditions which either guarantee the occurrence of unexpected hypersurfaces, or which ensure that they cannot occur, are not well understand. We introduce new methods for studying unexpectedness, such as the use of generic initial ideals and partial elimination ideals to clarify when it can and when it cannot occur. We also exhibit algebraic and geometric properties of $X$ …

Nonlinear Eigenvalue Problems of Schrödinger Type Admitting Eigenfunctions with Given Spectral Characteristics

2002

The following work is an extension of our recent paper [10]. We still deal with nonlinear eigenvalue problems of the form in a real Hilbert space ℋ with a semi-bounded self-adjoint operator A0, while for every y from a dense subspace X of ℋ, B(y ) is a symmetric operator. The left-hand side is assumed to be related to a certain auxiliary functional ψ, and the associated linear problems are supposed to have non-empty discrete spectrum (y ∈ X). We reformulate and generalize the topological method presented by the authors in [10] to construct solutions of (∗) on a sphere SR ≔ {y ∈ X | ∥y∥ℋ = R} whose ψ-value is the n-th Ljusternik-Schnirelman level of ψ| and whose corresponding eigenvalue is t…

Harnack and Shmul'yan pre-order relations for Hilbert space contractions

2015

We study the behavior of some classes of Hilbert space contractions with respect to Harnack and Shmul'yan pre-orders and the corresponding equivalence relations. We give some conditions under which the Harnack equivalence of two given contractions is equivalent to their Shmul'yan equivalence and to the existence of an arc joining the two contractions in the class of operator-valued contractive analytic functions on the unit disc. We apply some of these results to quasi-isometries and quasi-normal contractions, as well as to partial isometries for which we show that their Harnack and Shmul'yan parts coincide. We also discuss an extension, recently considered by S.~ter~Horst [\emph{J. Operato…

Manifolds of quasiconformal mappings and the nonlinear Beltrami equation

2014

In this paper we show that the homeomorphic solutions to each nonlinear Beltrami equation $\partial_{\bar{z}} f = \mathcal{H}(z, \partial_{z} f)$ generate a two-dimensional manifold of quasiconformal mappings $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{H}} \subset W^{1,2}_{\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb{C})$. Moreover, we show that under regularity assumptions on $\mathcal{H}$, the manifold $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{H}}$ defines the structure function $\mathcal{H}$ uniquely.

From metric spaces to partial metric spaces

2013

Motivated by experience from computer science, Matthews (1994) introduced a nonzero self-distance called a partial metric. He also extended the Banach contraction principle to the setting of partial metric spaces. In this paper, we show that fixed point theorems on partial metric spaces (including the Matthews fixed point theorem) can be deduced from fixed point theorems on metric spaces. New fixed point theorems on metric spaces are established and analogous results on partial metric spaces are deduced. MSC:47H10, 54H25.

Completely positive invariant conjugate-bilinear maps on partial *-algebras

2007

The notion of completely positive invariant conjugate-bilinear map in a partial *-algebra is introduced and a generalized Stinespring theorem is proven. Applications to the existence of integrable extensions of *-representations of commutative, locally convex quasi*-algebras are also discussed.

Periodic measures and partially hyperbolic homoclinic classes

2019

In this paper, we give a precise meaning to the following fact, and we prove it: $C^1$-open and densely, all the non-hyperbolic ergodic measures generated by a robust cycle are approximated by periodic measures. We apply our technique to the global setting of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with one dimensional center. When both strong stable and unstable foliations are minimal, we get that the closure of the set of ergodic measures is the union of two convex sets corresponding to the two possible $s$-indices; these two convex sets intersect along the closure of the set of non-hyperbolic ergodic measures. That is the case for robustly transitive perturbation of the time one map of a tr…

Banach partial *-algebras: an overview

2019

A Banach partial $*$-algebra is a locally convex partial $*$-algebra whose total space is a Banach space. A Banach partial $*$-algebra is said to be of type (B) if it possesses a generating family of multiplier spaces that are also Banach spaces. We describe the basic properties of these objects and display a number of examples, namely, $L^p$-like function spaces and spaces of operators on Hilbert scales or lattices. Finally we analyze the important cases of Banach quasi $*$-algebras and $CQ^*$-algebras.

The main purpose of this paper is to construct *-representations from unbounded C*-seminorms on partial *-algebras and to investigate their *-representations. © Heldermann Verlag.
