Let A = -Δ + V be a Schrödinger operator on ${ℝ}^d$, d ≥ 3, where V is a nonnegative potential satisfying the reverse Hölder inequality with an exponent q > d/2. We say that f is an element of $H_A^p$ if the maximal function $su{p}_{t>0}\left|T_{t}f\left(x\right)\right|$ belongs to $L^p\left({ℝ}^d\right)$, where ${T_t}_{t>0}$ is the semigroup generated by -A. It is proved that for d/(d+1) < p ≤ 1 the space $H_A^p$ admits a special atomic decomposition.

We present a novel approach for bounding the resolvent of $$H=-\Delta +i(A·\nabla +\nabla ·A)+V=:-\Delta +L1$$ for large energies. It is shown here that there exist a large integer $m$ and a large number ${\lambda }_0$ so that relative to the usual weighted $L^2$-norm, $$\parallel {\left(L{(-\Delta +(\lambda +i0))}^{-1}\right)}^m\parallel <\frac{1}{2}2$$ for all $\lambda >{\lambda }_0$. This requires suitable decay and smoothness conditions on $A,V$. The estimate (2) is trivial when $A=0$, but difficult for large $A$ since the gradient term exactly cancels the natural decay of the free resolvent. To obtain (2), we introduce a conical decomposition of the resolvent and...

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain of class $C^2$ in $ℝ$N and let $K$ be a compact subset of $\partial \Omega$. Assume that $q\ge (N+1)/\left(N-1\right)$ and denote by $U_K$ the maximal solution of $-\Delta u+u^q=0$ in $\Omega$ which vanishes on $\partial \Omega \setminus K$. We obtain sharp upper and lower estimates for $U_K$ in terms of the Bessel capacity $C_{2/q,q^{\text{'}}}$ and prove that $U_K$ is $\sigma$-moderate. In addition we describe the precise asymptotic behavior of $U_K$ at points $\sigma \in K$, which depends on the “density” of $K$ at $\sigma$, measured in terms of the capacity $C_{2/q,q^{\text{'}}}$.

The notion of maximal non-pseudovaluation subring of an integral domain is introduced and studied. Let $R\subset S$ be an extension of domains. Then $R$ is called a maximal non-pseudovaluation subring of $S$ if $R$ is not a pseudovaluation subring of $S$, and for any ring $T$ such that $R\subset T\subset S$, $T$ is a pseudovaluation subring of $S$. We show that if $S$ is not local, then there no such $T$ exists between $R$ and $S$. We also characterize maximal non-pseudovaluation subrings of a local integral domain.

We address the problem of the existence of finite energy solitary waves for nonlinear Klein-Gordon or Schrödinger type equations $\Delta u-u+f\left(u\right)=0$ in ${ℝ}^N$, $u\in H^1\left({ℝ}^N\right)$, where $N\ge 2$. Under natural conditions on the nonlinearity $f$, we prove the existence of $\mathrm{𝑖𝑛𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑙𝑦𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑦𝑛𝑜𝑛𝑟𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑎𝑙𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠}$ in any dimension $N\ge 2$. Our result complements earlier works of Bartsch and Willem $(N=4\mathrm{𝚘𝚛}N\ge 6)$ and Lorca-Ubilla $(N=5)$ where solutions invariant under the action of $O\left(2\right)\times O(N-2)$ are constructed. In contrast, the solutions we construct are invariant under the action of $D_k\times O(N-2)$ where $D_k\subset O\left(2\right)$ denotes the dihedral...

Let ${ℒ}_1=-\Delta +V$ be a Schrödinger operator and let ${ℒ}_2={(-\Delta )}^2+V^2$ be a Schrödinger type operator on ${ℝ}^n$ $(n\ge 5)$, where $V\ne 0$ is a nonnegative potential belonging to certain reverse Hölder class $B_s$ for $s\ge n/2$. The Hardy type space $H_{{ℒ}_2}^1$ is defined in terms of the maximal function with respect to the semigroup $\left\{{\mathrm{e}}^{-t{ℒ}_2}\right\}$ and it is identical to the Hardy space $H_{{ℒ}_1}^1$ established by Dziubański and Zienkiewicz. In this article, we prove the $L^p$-boundedness of the commutator ${ℛ}_b=bℛf-ℛ\left(bf\right)$ generated by the Riesz transform $ℛ={\nabla }^2{ℒ}_2^{-1/2}$, where $b\in {\mathrm{BMO}}_{\theta }\left(\rho \right)$, which is larger...

We show the existence of weak solutions in the extended sense of the Cauchy problem for the cubic fourth order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the initial data $u_0\in X$, where $X\in \{M_{2,q}^s\left(ℝ\right),H^{\sigma }\left(𝕋\right),H^{s_1}\left(ℝ\right)+H^{s_2}\left(𝕋\right)\}$ and $q\in [1,2]$, $s\ge 0$, or $\sigma \ge 0$, or $s_2\ge s_1\ge 0$. Moreover, if $M_{2,q}^s\left(ℝ\right)\hookrightarrow L^3\left(ℝ\right)$, or if $\sigma \ge \frac{1}{6}$, or if $s_1\ge \frac{1}{6}$ and $s_2>\frac{1}{2}$ we show that the Cauchy problem is unconditionally wellposed in $X$. Similar results hold true for all higher order nonlinear Schrödinger equations and mixed order NLS due to a factorization property of the corresponding phase factors. For the proof we employ...

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity. The notion of maximal non $\lambda$-subrings is introduced and studied. A ring $R$ is called a maximal non $\lambda$-subring of a ring $T$ if $R\subset T$ is not a $\lambda$-extension, and for any ring $S$ such that $R\subset S\subseteq T$, $S\subseteq T$ is a $\lambda$-extension. We show that a maximal non $\lambda$-subring $R$ of a field has at most two maximal ideals, and exactly two if $R$ is integrally closed in the given field. A determination of when the classical $D+M$ construction is a maximal non $\lambda$-domain is given. A necessary condition...

We consider the quasilinear equation ${\Delta }_{p}u+K\left(\right|x\left|\right)u^q=0$, and present the proof of the local existence of positive radial solutions near $0$ under suitable conditions on $K$. Moreover, we provide a priori estimates of positive radial solutions near $\infty$ when $r^{-\ell }K\left(r\right)$ for $\ell \ge -p$ is bounded near $\infty$.

We prove an upper bound for the Aviles–Giga problem, which involves the minimization of the energy $E_{\epsilon }\left(v\right)=\epsilon {\int }_{\Omega }|{\nabla }^2{v|}^{2}dx+{\epsilon }^{-1}{\int }_{\Omega }{\left(1-\right|\nabla v|}^2{)}^{2}dx$ over $v\in H^2\left(\Omega \right)$, where $\epsilon >0$ is a small parameter. Given $v\in W^{1,\infty }\left(\Omega \right)$ such that $\nabla v\in BV$ and $\left|\nabla v\right|=1$ a.e., we construct a family $\left\{v_{\epsilon }\right\}$ satisfying: $v_{\epsilon }\to v$ in $W^{1,p}\left(\Omega \right)$ and $E_{\epsilon }\left(v_{\epsilon }\right)\to \frac{1}{3}{\int }_{J_{\nabla v}}{\left|{\nabla }^{+}v-{\nabla }^{-}v\right|}^{3}d{\mathscr{H}}^{N-1}$ as $\epsilon$ goes to 0.

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional space and $C_c\left(X\right)$ be the set of all continuous real valued functions on $X$ with countable image. In this article we denote by $C_c^K\left(X\right)$ (resp., $C_c^{\psi }\left(X\right))$ the set of all functions in $C_c\left(X\right)$ with compact (resp., pseudocompact) support. First, we observe that $C_c^K\left(X\right)=O_c^{{\beta }_{0}X\setminus X}$ (resp., $C_c^{\psi }\left(X\right)=M_c^{{\beta }_{0}X\setminus {\upsilon }_{0}X}$), where ${\beta }_{0}X$ is the Banaschewski compactification of $X$ and ${\upsilon }_{0}X$ is the $\mathbb{N}$-compactification of $X$. This implies that for an $\mathbb{N}$-compact space $X$, the intersection of all free maximal ideals in $C_c\left(X\right)$ is equal to $C_c^K\left(X\right)$, i.e., $M_c^{{\beta }_{0}X\setminus X}=C_c^K\left(X\right)$. By applying...

Let $k$ be a fixed integer. We study the asymptotic formula of $R(H,r,k)$, which is the number of positive integer solutions $1\le x,y,z\le H$ such that the polynomial $x^2+y^2+z^2+k$ is $r$-free. We obtained the asymptotic formula of $R(H,r,k)$ for all $r\ge 2$. Our result is new even in the case $r=2$. We proved that $R(H,2,k)=c_k{H}^3+O\left(H^{9/4+\epsilon }\right)$, where $c_k>0$ is a constant depending on $k$. This improves upon the error term $O\left(H^{7/3+\epsilon }\right)$ obtained by G.-L. Zhou, Y. Ding (2022).

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...

A famous theorem of Carleson says that, given any function $f\in L^p\left(𝕋\right)$, $p\in (1,+\infty )$, its Fourier series $\left(S_{n}f\left(x\right)\right)$ converges for almost every $x\in 𝕋$. Beside this property, the series may diverge at some point, without exceeding $O\left(n^{1/p}\right)$. We define the divergence index at $x$ as the infimum of the positive real numbers $\beta$ such that $S_{n}f\left(x\right)=O\left(n^{\beta }\right)$ and we are interested in the size of the exceptional sets $E_{\beta }$, namely the sets of $x\in 𝕋$ with divergence index equal to $\beta$. We show that quasi-all functions in $L^p\left(𝕋\right)$ have a multifractal behavior with respect to...
