Let $W(m,n;\underline{\psi })$ denote the set of ${\psi }_1,...,{\psi }_n$–approximable points in ${ℝ}^{mn}$. The classical Khintchine–Groshev theorem assumes a monotonicity condition on the approximating functions $\underline{\psi }$. Removing monotonicity from the Khintchine–Groshev theorem is attributed to different authors for different cases of $m$ and $n$. It can not be removed for $m=n=1$ as Duffin–Schaeffer provided the counter example. We deal with the only remaining case $m=2$ and thereby remove all unnecessary conditions from the Khintchine–Groshev theorem. ...

It is shown that there is a subspace $Z_q$ of ${\ell }_q$ for $1<q<2$ which is isomorphic to ${\ell }_q$ such that ${\ell }_q/Z_q$ does not have the approximation property. On the other hand, for $2<p<\infty$ there is a subspace $Y_p$ of ${\ell }_p$ such that $Y_p$ does not have the approximation property (AP) but the quotient space ${\ell }_p/Y_p$ is isomorphic to ${\ell }_p$. The result is obtained by defining random “Enflo-Davie spaces” $Y_p$ which with full probability fail AP for all $2<p\le \infty$ and have AP for all $1\le p\le 2$. For $1<p\le 2$, $Y_p$ are isomorphic to ${\ell }_p$.

Let ${\alpha }_i,{\beta }_i>0$, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, and for t > 0 and x = (x₁,...,xₙ) ∈ ℝⁿ, let $t•x=(t^{\alpha ₁}x₁,...,t^{\alpha ₙ}xₙ)$, $t\circ x=(t^{\beta ₁}x₁,...,t^{\beta ₙ}xₙ)$ and $\left|\right|x\left|\right|={\sum }_{i=1}^n{\left|x_i\right|}^{1/{\alpha }_i}$. Let φ₁,...,φₙ be real functions in $C^{\infty }(ℝⁿ-0)$ such that φ = (φ₁,..., φₙ) satisfies φ(t • x) = t ∘ φ(x). Let γ > 0 and let μ be the Borel measure on ${ℝ}^{2n}$ given by $\mu \left(E\right)={\int }_{ℝⁿ}{\chi }_E{(x,\phi \left(x\right))\left|\right|x\left|\right|}^{\gamma -\alpha }dx$, where $\alpha ={\sum }_{i=1}^n{\alpha }_i$ and dx denotes the Lebesgue measure on ℝⁿ. Let $T_{\mu }f=\mu \ast f$ and let $\left|\right|T_{\mu }{\left|\right|}_{p,q}$ be the operator norm of $T_{\mu }$ from $L^p\left({ℝ}^{2n}\right)$ into $L^q\left({ℝ}^{2n}\right)$, where the $L^p$ spaces are taken with respect to the Lebesgue measure. The type set $E_{\mu }$ is defined by $E_{\mu }=(1/p,1/q):\left|\right|T_{\mu }{\left|\right|}_{p,q}<\infty ,1\le p,q\le \infty$. In the case ${\alpha }_i\ne {\beta }_k$ for 1 ≤ i,k ≤ n we characterize the...

Following a suggestion of W.M. Schmidt and L. Summerer, we construct a proper $3$-system $(P_1,P_2,P_3)$ with the property ${\overline{\varphi }}_3=1$. In fact, our method generalizes to provide $n$-systems with ${\overline{\varphi }}_n=1$, for arbitrary $n\ge 3$. We visualize our constructions with graphics. We further present explicit examples of numbers ${\xi }_1,...,{\xi }_{n-1}$ that induce the $n$-systems in question.

Let $k\ge 2$ and let ${\left(P_n^{\left(k\right)}\right)}_{n\ge 2-k}$ be the $k$-generalized Pell sequence defined by $$P_n^{\left(k\right)}=2P_{n-1}^{\left(k\right)}+P_{n-2}^{\left(k\right)}+\cdots +P_{n-k}^{\left(k\right)}$$ for $n\ge 2$ with initial conditions $$P_{-(k-2)}^{\left(k\right)}=P_{-(k-3)}^{\left(k\right)}=\cdots =P_{-1}^{\left(k\right)}=P_0^{\left(k\right)}=0,P_1^{\left(k\right)}=1.$$ In this study, we handle the equation $P_n^{\left(k\right)}=y^m$ in positive integers $n$, $m$, $y$, $k$ such that $k,y\ge 2,$ and give an upper bound on $n.$ Also, we will show that the equation $P_n^{\left(k\right)}=y^m$ with $2\le y\le 1000$ has only one solution given by $P_7^{\left(2\right)}={13}^2.$

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...

In this paper we prove the following theorems in incidence geometry. 1. There is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le n^{(1+\delta )/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then $P_1,\cdots ,P_4$ are collinear. If the number of the distinct lines is $<c{n}^{1/2}$ then the cross ratio of the four points is algebraic. 2. Given $c>0$, there is $\delta >0$ such that for any $P_1,P_2,P_3\in {ℂ}^2$ noncollinear, and $Q_1,\cdots ,Q_n\in {ℂ}^2$, if there are $\le c{n}^{1/2}$ many distinct lines between $P_i$ and $Q_j$ for all $i$, $j$, then for any $P\in {ℂ}^2\setminus \{P_1,P_2,P_3\}$, we have $\delta n$ distinct lines between $P$ and $Q_j$. 3. Given...

We take another approach to the well known theorem of Korovkin, in the following situation: X, Y are compact Hausdorff spaces, M is a unital subspace of the Banach space C(X) (respectively, $C_{ℝ}\left(X\right)$) of all complex-valued (resp., real-valued) continuous functions on X, S ⊂ M a complex (resp., real) function space on X, ϕₙ a sequence of unital linear contractions from M into C(Y) (resp., $C_{ℝ}\left(Y\right)$), and ${\varphi }_{\infty }$ a linear isometry from M into C(Y) (resp., $C_{ℝ}\left(Y\right)$). We show, under the assumption that ${\Pi }_N\subset {\Pi }_T$, where ${\Pi }_N$ is...
