For $1\le p\le \infty$, precise conditions on the parameters are given under which the particular superposition operator $T:f\to \left|f\right|$ is a bounded map in the Besov space $B_{p,q}^s\left(R^1\right)$. The proofs rely on linear spline approximation theory.

Crack propagation in anisotropic materials is a persistent problem. A general concept to predict crack growth is the energy principle: A crack can only grow, if energy is released. We study the change of potential energy caused by a propagating crack in a fully three-dimensional solid consisting of an anisotropic material. Based on methods of asymptotic analysis (method of matched asymptotic expansions) we give a formula for the decrease in potential energy if a smooth inner crack grows along a...

C. Watari [12] obtained a simple characterization of Lipschitz classes $Li{p}^{\left(p\right)}\alpha \left(W\right)(1\ge p\ge \infty ,\alpha >0)$ on the dyadic group using the $L^p$-modulus of continuity and the best approximation by Walsh polynomials. Onneweer and Weiyi [4] characterized homogeneous Besov spaces $B_{p,q}^{\alpha }$ on locally compact Vilenkin groups, but there are still some gaps to be filled up. Our purpose is to give the characterization of Besov spaces $B_{p,q}^{\alpha }$ by oscillations, atoms and others on the dyadic groups. As applications, we show a strong capacity inequality of the...

Let $E={\bigcup }_{n=1}^{\infty }{I}_n$ be the union of infinitely many disjoint closed intervals where $I_n=[a_n$, $b_n]$, $0<a_1<b_1<a_2<b_2<\cdots <b_n<\cdots$, ${lim}_{n\to \infty }{b}_n=\infty .$ Let $\alpha \left(t\right)$ be a nonnegative function and ${\left\{{\lambda }_n\right\}}_{n=1}^{\infty }$ a sequence of distinct complex numbers. In this paper, a theorem on the completeness of the system $\left\{t^{{\lambda }_n}{log}^{m_n}t\right\}$ in $C_0\left(E\right)$ is obtained where $C_0\left(E\right)$ is the weighted Banach space consists of complex functions continuous on $E$ with $f\left(t\right){\mathrm{e}}^{-\alpha \left(t\right)}$ vanishing at infinity.
