We consider the Darboux problem for a functional differential equation: $\left(\partial ²u\right)/\left(\partial x\partial y\right)(x,y)=f(x,y,u_{(x,y)},u(x,y),\partial u/\partial x(x,y),\partial u/\partial y(x,y))$ a.e. in [0,a]×[0,b], u(x,y) = ψ(x,y) on [-a₀,a]×[-b₀,b]∖(0,a]×(0,b], where the function $u_{(x,y)}:[-a₀,0]\times [-b₀,0]\to {ℝ}^k$ is defined by $u_{(x,y)}(s,t)=u(s+x,t+y)$ for (s,t) ∈ [-a₀,0]×[-b₀,0]. We give a few theorems about weak and strong inequalities for this problem. We also discuss the case where the right-hand side of the differential equation is linear.

We consider the systems of hyperbolic equations ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+\Delta \left(b(t,x)v\right)+{h(t,x)\left|v\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S1) ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{k(t,x)\left|u\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$ ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+{h(t,x)\left|v\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S2) ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{l(t,x)\left|v\right|}^m+k(t,x){\left|u\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S3) ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+\Delta \left(b(t,x)v\right)+{h(t,x)\left|u\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{k(t,x)\left|v\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, in $(0,\infty )\times {ℝ}^N$ with u(0,x) = u₀(x), v(0,x) = v₀(x), uₜ(0,x) = u₁(x), vₜ(0,x) = v₁(x). We show that, in each case, there exists a bound B on N such that for 1 ≤ N ≤ B solutions to the systems blow up in finite time.

We prove the central limit theorem for the multisequence ${\sum }_{1\le n₁\le N₁}\cdots {\sum }_{1\le n_d\le N_d}{a}_{n₁,...,n_d}cos(⟨2\pi m,A{₁}^{n₁}...A_d^{n_d}x⟩)$ where $m\in {\mathbb{Z}}^s$, $a_{n₁,...,n_d}$ are reals, $A₁,...,A_d$ are partially hyperbolic commuting s × s matrices, and x is a uniformly distributed random variable in ${[0,1]}^s$. The main tool is the S-unit theorem.

A hyperideal polyhedron is a non-compact polyhedron in the hyperbolic $3$-space ${ℍ}^3$ which, in the projective model for ${ℍ}^3\subset {\mathrm{ℝ\mathbb{P}}}^3$, is just the intersection of ${ℍ}^3$ with a projective polyhedron whose vertices are all outside ${ℍ}^3$ and whose edges all meet ${ℍ}^3$. We classify hyperideal polyhedra, up to isometries of ${ℍ}^3$, in terms of their combinatorial type and of their dihedral angles.

Let $Y$ be a hyperbolic surface and let $\phi$ be a Laplacian eigenfunction having eigenvalue $-1/4-{\tau }^2$ with $\tau >0$. Let $N\left(\phi \right)$ be the set of nodal lines of $\phi$. For a fixed analytic curve $\gamma$ of finite length, we study the number of intersections between $N\left(\phi \right)$ and $\gamma$ in terms of $\tau$. When $Y$ is compact and $\gamma$ a geodesic circle, or when $Y$ has finite volume and $\gamma$ is a closed horocycle, we prove that $\gamma$ is “good” in the sense of [TZ]. As a result, we obtain that the number of intersections between $N\left(\phi \right)$ and $\gamma$ is $O\left(\tau \right)$. This bound is...

We consider “nonconventional” averaging setup in the form $\frac{\mathrm{d}{X}^{\epsilon }\left(t\right)}{\mathrm{d}t}=\epsilon B(X^{\epsilon }\left(t\right)$, $𝛯\left(q_1\left(t\right)\right),𝛯\left(q_2\left(t\right)\right),...,𝛯\left(q_{\ell }\left(t\right)\right))$ where $𝛯\left(t\right)$, $t\ge 0$ is either a stochastic process or a dynamical system with sufficiently fast mixing while $q_j\left(t\right)={\alpha }_{j}t$, ${\alpha }_{1}lt;{\alpha }_{2}lt;\cdots lt;{\alpha }_k$ and $q_j$, $j=k+1,...,\ell$ grow faster than linearly. We show that the properly normalized error term in the “nonconventional” averaging principle is asymptotically Gaussian.

Let $X$ be a connected closed manifold and $f$ a self-map on $X$. We say that $f$ is almost quasi-unipotent if every eigenvalue $\lambda$ of the map $f_{*k}$ (the induced map on the $k$-th homology group of $X$) which is neither a root of unity, nor a zero, satisfies that the sum of the multiplicities of $\lambda$ as eigenvalue of all the maps $f_{*k}$ with $k$ odd is equal to the sum of the multiplicities of $\lambda$ as eigenvalue of all the maps $f_{*k}$ with $k$ even. We prove that if $f$ is $C^1$ having finitely many periodic points all of them...

Let 0 < β < α < 1 and let p ∈ (0,1). We consider the functional equation φ(x) = pφ (x-β)/(1-β) + (1-p)φ(minx/α, (x(α-β)+β(1-α))/α(1-β)) and its solutions in two classes of functions, namely ℐ = φ: ℝ → ℝ|φ is increasing, ${\phi |}_{(-\infty ,0]}=0$, ${\phi |}_{[1,\infty )}=1$, = φ: ℝ → ℝ|φ is continuous, ${\phi |}_{(-\infty ,0]}=0$, ${\phi |}_{[1,\infty )}=1$. We prove that the above equation has at most one solution in and that for some parameters α,β and p such a solution exists, and for some it does not. We also determine all solutions of the equation in ℐ and we show the...

In his seminal paper on arithmetic surfaces Faltings introduced a new invariant associated to compact Riemann surfaces $X$, nowadays called Faltings’s delta function and here denoted by ${\delta }_{\mathrm{Fal}}\left(X\right)$. For a given compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g_X=g$, the invariant ${\delta }_{\mathrm{Fal}}\left(X\right)$ is roughly given as minus the logarithm of the distance with respect to the Weil-Petersson metric of the point in the moduli space ${ℳ}_g$ of genus $g$ curves determined by $X$ to its boundary $\partial {ℳ}_g$. In this paper we begin by revisiting a formula derived...

We deal with the problem ⎧ -Δu = f(x,u) + λg(x,u), in Ω, ⎨ ($P_{\lambda }$) ⎩ $u_{\mid \partial \Omega }=0$ where Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ is a bounded domain, λ ∈ ℝ, and f,g: Ω×ℝ → ℝ are two Carathéodory functions with f(x,0) = g(x,0) = 0. Under suitable assumptions, we prove that there exists λ* > 0 such that, for each λ ∈ (0,λ*), problem ($P_{\lambda }$) admits a non-zero, non-negative strong solution $u_{\lambda }\in {\bigcap }_{p\ge 2}{W}^{2,p}\left(\Omega \right)$ such that $li{m}_{\lambda \to 0⁺}\left|\right|u_{\lambda }{\left|\right|}_{W^{2,p}\left(\Omega \right)}=0$ for all p ≥ 2. Moreover, the function $\lambda \mapsto I_{\lambda }\left(u_{\lambda }\right)$ is negative and decreasing in ]0,λ*[, where $I_{\lambda }$ is the energy functional related to ($P_{\lambda }$). ...

Let $S$ be a Riemann surface. Let ${ℍ}^3$ be the $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space and let ${\partial }_{\infty }{ℍ}^3$ be its ideal boundary. In our context, a Plateau problem is a locally holomorphic mapping $\varphi :S\to {\partial }_{\infty }{ℍ}^3=\widehat{ℂ}$. If $i:S\to {ℍ}^3$ is a convex immersion, and if $N$ is its exterior normal vector field, we define the Gauss lifting, $\widehat{ı}$, of $i$ by $\widehat{ı}=N$. Let $\overrightarrow{n}:U{ℍ}^3\to {\partial }_{\infty }{ℍ}^3$ be the Gauss-Minkowski mapping. A solution to the Plateau problem $(S,\varphi )$ is a convex immersion $i$ of constant Gaussian curvature equal to $k\in (0,1)$ such that the Gauss lifting $(S,\widehat{ı})$ is complete and $\overrightarrow{n}\circ \widehat{ı}=\varphi$. In this...

We give new results on square functions $${\parallel x\parallel }_F=\parallel {\left({\int }_0^{\infty }{\left|F\left(tA\right)x\right|}^2\frac{\mathrm{d}t}{t}\right)}^{1/2}{\parallel }_p$$ associated to a sectorial operator $A$ on $L^p$ for $1\&lt;p\&lt;\infty$. Under the assumption that $A$ is actually $R$-sectorial, we prove equivalences of the form $K^{-1}{\parallel x\parallel }_G\le {\parallel x\parallel }_F\le K{\parallel x\parallel }_G$ for suitable functions $F,G$. We also show that $A$ has a bounded $H^{\infty }$ functional calculus with respect to ${\parallel .\parallel }_F$. Then we apply our results to the study of conditions under which we have an estimate $\parallel {({\int }_0^{\infty }|C{\mathrm{e}}^{-tA}{\left(x\right)|}^2\mathrm{d}t{)}^{1/2}\parallel }_q\le M{\parallel x\parallel }_p$, when $-A$ generates a bounded semigroup ${\mathrm{e}}^{-tA}$ on $L^p$ and $C:D\left(A\right)\to L^q$ is a linear mapping.

We consider the integral functional $J\left(u\right)={\int }_{\Omega }\left[f\right(\left|Du\right|\left)-u\right]dx$, $u\in W_0^{1,1}\left(\Omega \right)$, where $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^n$, $n\ge 2$, is a nonempty bounded connected open subset of ${ℝ}^n$ with smooth boundary, and $ℝ\ni s\mapsto f\left(\right|s\left|\right)$ is a convex, differentiable function. We prove that if $J$ admits a minimizer in $W_0^{1,1}\left(\Omega \right)$ depending only on the distance from the boundary of $\Omega$, then $\Omega$ must be a ball.

We characterise the boundedness of the $H^{\infty }$ calculus of a sectorial operator in terms of dilation theorems. We show e. g. that if $-A$ generates a bounded analytic $C_0$ semigroup $\left(T_t\right)$ on a UMD space, then the $H^{\infty }$ calculus of $A$ is bounded if and only if $\left(T_t\right)$ has a dilation to a bounded group on $L^2([0,1],X)$. This generalises a Hilbert space result of C.LeMerdy. If $X$ is an $L^p$ space we can choose another $L^p$ space in place of $L^2([0,1],X)$.

Let $D$ be a ${𝒞}^d$ $q$-convex intersection, $d\ge 2$, $0\le q\le n-1$, in a complex manifold $X$ of complex dimension $n$, $n\ge 2$, and let $E$ be a holomorphic vector bundle of rank $N$ over $X$. In this paper, ${𝒞}^k$-estimates, $k=2,3,\cdots ,\infty$, for solutions to the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with small loss of smoothness are obtained for $E$-valued $(0,s)$-forms on $D$ when $n-q\le s\le n$. In addition, we solve the $\overline{\partial }$-equation with a support condition in ${𝒞}^k$-spaces. More precisely, we prove that for a $\overline{\partial }$-closed form $f$ in ${𝒞}_{0,q}^k(X\setminus D,E)$, $1\le q\le n-2$, $n\ge 3$, with compact support and for $\epsilon$ with $0<\epsilon <1$ there...
