Let $\mathrm{\Sigma }$ be a constrained mechanical system locally referred to state coordinates $(q^1,\mathrm{\dots },q^N,{\gamma }^1,\mathrm{\dots },{\gamma }^M)$. Let $({\tilde{\gamma }}^1\mathrm{\dots }{\tilde{\gamma }}^M)(\cdot )$ be an assigned trajectory for the coordinates ${\gamma }^{\alpha }$ and let $u(\cdot )$ be a scalar function of the time, to be thought as a control. In [4] one considers the control system ${\mathrm{\Sigma }}_{\widehat{\gamma }}$, which is parametrized by the coordinates $(q^1,\mathrm{\dots },q^N)$ and is obtained from $\mathrm{\Sigma }$ by adding the time-dependent, holonomic constraints ${\gamma }^{\alpha }={\widehat{\gamma }}^{\alpha }(t):={\tilde{\gamma }}^{\alpha }(u(t))$. More generally, one can consider a vector-valued control $u(\cdot )=(u^1,\mathrm{\dots },u^M)(\cdot )$ which is directly identified with $\widehat{\gamma }(\cdot )=({\widehat{\gamma }}^1,\mathrm{\dots },{\widehat{\gamma }}^M)(\cdot )$. If one denotes the momenta...

See Summary in Note I. First, on the basis of some results in [2] or [5]-such as Lemmas 8.1 and 10.1-the general (mathematical) theorems on controllizability proved in Note I are quickly applied to (mechanic) Lagrangian systems. Second, in case $\mathrm{\Sigma }$, $\chi$ and $M$ satisfy conditions (11.7) when $𝒬$ is a polynomial in $\dot{\gamma }$, conditions (C)-i.e. (11.8) and (11.7) with $𝒬\equiv 0$-are proved to be necessary for treating satisfactorily $\mathrm{\Sigma }$'s hyper-impulsive motions (in which positions can suffer first order discontinuities)....

For a smooth curve $\Gamma$ and a set $\Lambda$ in the plane ${ℝ}^2$, let $AC(\Gamma ;\Lambda )$ be the space of finite Borel measures in the plane supported on $\Gamma$, absolutely continuous with respect to the arc length and whose Fourier transform vanishes on $\Lambda$. Following [12], we say that $(\Gamma ,\Lambda )$ is a Heisenberg uniqueness pair if $AC(\Gamma ;\Lambda )=\left\{0\right\}$. In the context of a hyperbola $\Gamma$, the study of Heisenberg uniqueness pairs is the same as looking for uniqueness sets $\Lambda$ of a collection of solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation. In this work, we mainly...

Sia $K\subset \subset {ℝ}^n$ un compatto, $f\ge 0$ una funzione analitica all'intorno di $K$, ed $m$ la massima molteplicità in $K$ degli zeri di $f$; si prova che la potenza $f^{\lambda }$ ($\lambda \in ℂ$, $Re\lambda >\mathrm{—}\frac{1}{m}$) è integrabile in $K$. L'estensione meromorfa dell'applicazione $\lambda \to f^{\lambda }$ da $Re\lambda >0$ a tutto $ℂ$ (con valori in ${𝒟}^{\prime }(K)$ anziché in $L^1(K)$) era già stata provata in [1] e [2].

Siano $d$, $g$, $t$ interi con $0\le t\le g$; se esiste in ${\mathbb{P}}_3(ℂ)$ una curva connessa, non singolare di grado $d$ e genere $g$, allora esiste in ${\mathbb{P}}_3(ℂ)$ una curva irriducibile di grado $d$, genere aritmetico $g$ e $t$ nodi.

Let $F\subset C^{\ast }(X)$ be a vector sublattice over $ℝ$ which separates points from closed sets of $X$. The compactification $e_{F}X$ obtained by embedding $X$ in a real cube via the diagonal map, is different, in general, from the Wallman compactification $\omega (Z(F))$. In this paper, it is shown that there exists a lattice $F_z$ containing $F$ such that $\omega (Z(F))=\omega (Z(F_z))=e_{F}X$. In particular this implies that $\omega (Z(F))\ge e_{F}X$. Conditions in order to be $\omega (Z(F))=e_{F}X$ are given. Finally we prove that, if $\alpha X$ is a compactification of $X$ such that $C{l}_{\alpha X}(\alpha X\setminus X)$ is $0$-dimensional, then there is an...

Inspired by a result from Leibov, we find that the supremum defining the $BLO$ norm in $[0,1]$ is actually attained by a specific sub-interval of $[0,1]$ for $f\in VLO([0,1])$

Let $G$ be a group and $m$ be an integer greater than or equal to $2$. $G$ is said to be $m$-permutable if every product of $m$ elements can be reordered at least in one way. We prove that, if $G$ has a centre of finite index $z$, then $G$ is $(1+[z/2])$-permutable. More bounds are given on the least $m$ such that $G$ is $m$-permutable.

Si considera l’equazione astratta $B{A}_{1}u+A_{0}u=h$, dove $A_i$ $(i=0,1)$ e $B$ sono convenienti operatori lineari chiusi fra spazi di Banach, $A_i$ non è necessariamente invertibile, e $A_0$, $A_1$ non commutano con $B$. Si studiano esistenza ed unicità delle soluzioni. Si indicano alcune applicazioni a certe equazioni differenziali degeneri o singolari.

In [1] I and II various equivalence theorems are proved; e.g. an ODE $(ℰ)\dot{z}=F(t,z,u,\dot{u})(\in {ℝ}^m)$ with a scalar control $u=u(\cdot )$ is linear w.r.t. $\dot{u}$ iff $(\alpha )$ its solution $z(u,\cdot )$ with given initial conditions (chosen arbitrarily) is continuous w.r.t. $u$ in a certain sense, or iff $(\beta )$ $z(u,\cdot )$ satisfies certain conditions by which $1^{st}$-order discontinuities of $u$ and $\dot{u}$ can be treated satisfactorily. In the case when, for $z=(q,p)$ equation $(ℰ)$ is a semi-Hamiltonian system, equivalent to a system of Lagrangian equations of a general type,...

Let ${\Phi }_1,...,{\Phi }_{k+1}$ (with $k\ge 1$) be vector fields of class $C^k$ in an open set $U{\subset }^{N+m}$, let $𝕄$ be a $N$-dimensional $C^k$ submanifold of $U$ and define $$𝕋:=\{z\in 𝕄:{\Phi }_1\left(z\right),...,{\Phi }_{k+1}\left(z\right)\in T_z𝕄\}$$ where $T_z𝕄$ is the tangent space to $𝕄$ at $z$. Then we expect the following property, which is obvious in the special case when $z_0$ is an interior point (relative to $𝕄$) of $𝕋$: If $z_0\in 𝕄$ is a $(N+k)$-density point (relative to $𝕄$) of $𝕋$ then all the iterated Lie brackets of order less or equal to $k$ $${\Phi }_{i_1}\left(z_0\right),[{\Phi }_{i_1},{\Phi }_{i_2}]\left(z_0\right),[[{\Phi }_{i_1},{\Phi }_{i_2}],{\Phi }_{i_3}]\left(z_0\right),...(h,i_h\le k+1)$$ belong to $T_{z_0}𝕄$. Such a property has been proved in [9] for $k=1$ and its proof in the...

A metacyclic group $H$ can be presented as $\langle \alpha ,\beta :{\alpha }^n=1$, ${\beta }^m={\alpha }^t$, $\beta \alpha {\beta }^{-1}={\alpha }^r\rangle$ for some $n$, $m$, $t$, $r$. Each endomorphism $\sigma$ of $H$ is determined by $\sigma \left(\alpha \right)={\alpha }^{x_1}{\beta }^{y_1}$, $\sigma \left(\beta \right)={\alpha }^{x_2}{\beta }^{y_2}$ for some integers $x_1$, $x_2$, $y_1$, $y_2$. We give sufficient and necessary conditions on $x_1$, $x_2$, $y_1$, $y_2$ for $\sigma$ to be an automorphism.

Si supponga che l'anello $𝐑$ ammetta una decomposizione come prodotto subdiretto $𝐑=\underset{\widetilde{\alpha \in 𝚲}}{\times }{𝐑}_{\alpha }$ di anelli ${𝐑}_{\alpha }\ne \mathrm{}$, tali che per ${𝐒}_{\alpha }=𝐑\cap {𝐑}_{\alpha }$ si abbia ${Ann}_{{𝐑}_{\alpha }}{𝐒}_{\alpha }=\mathrm{}$ ($\forall \alpha \in A$), e sia $𝐒={\oplus }_{\alpha \in 𝐀}{𝐒}_{\alpha }$. Si scelga un $𝐑$-modulo (destro) $𝐌$ che sia libero da torsione rispetto ad $𝐒$, cioè ${Ann}_{𝐌}𝐒=\mathrm{}$; allora $𝐌$ può essere rappresentato come prodotto subdiretto irridondante $𝐌\cong \underset{\widetilde{\alpha \in 𝚲}}{\times }{𝐌}_{\alpha }$ degli ${𝐑}_{\alpha }$-moduli ${𝐌}_{\alpha }$ liberi da torsione rispetto ad ${𝐒}_{\alpha }$. Si fa uno studio di un subprodotto generale di una classe $𝐂$ di $𝐑$-moduli ${𝐌}^{(𝐢)}$ $(i\in I)$, dove $𝐂$ è determinato per mezzo di epimorfismi e relazioni. ...

Ogni logica $L$ genera canonicamente la $L$-equivalenza ${\equiv }_L$e la $L$-immersione $\underset{𝐿}{\to }$ proprio come la logica del primo ordine genera l’equivalenza elementare $\equiv$ e l’immersione elementare $\lesssim$. Astraendo da $L$, è interessante studiare in sè relazioni d’equivalenza e di immersione generali tra strutture. Mostriamo che esiste una corrispondenza biunivoca tra relazioni d’equivalenza con la proprietà di Robinson e relazioni d’immersione con la proprietà di Amalgamazione Forte ($A{P}^{+}$). Caratterizziamo algebricamente...

Dato un cono $V$ aperto non vuoto, convesso, regolare e affinemente omogeneo in uno spazio vettoriale reale $W$ di dimensione finita si prova che per ogni $v$ appartenente a $V$ esiste un diffeomorfismo $E_v:W\to V$ che soddisfa le condizioni seguenti E1) $E_v(0)=v$; E2) $det(d{E}_v(y))={\mathrm{\Phi }}_V{(E_v(y))}^{-1}$ per ogni $y$ appartenente a $W$ ove ${\mathrm{\Phi }}_V:V\to {𝐑}^{+}$ è la funzione caratteristica di $V$.

In this work we study the problem $u_t{-div\left(\right|x|}^{-2\gamma }\nabla u)=\lambda \frac{u^{\alpha }}{{\left|x\right|}^{2(\gamma +1)}}+f$ in $\Omega \times (0,T)$, $u\ge 0$ in $\Omega \times (0,T)$, $u=0$ on $\partial \Omega \times (0,T)$, $u(x,0)=u_0\left(x\right)$ in $\Omega$, $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ $(N\ge 2)$ is a bounded regular domain such that $0\in \Omega$, $\lambda >0$, $\alpha >0$, $-\infty <\gamma <\left(N-2\right)/2$, $f$ and $u_0$ are positive functions such that $f\in L^1(\Omega \times (0,T))$ and $u_0\in L^1\left(\Omega \right)$. The main points under analysis are: (i) spectral instantaneous and complete blow-up related to the Harnack inequality in the case $\alpha =1$, $1+\gamma >0$; (ii) the nonexistence of solutions if $\alpha >1$, $1+\gamma >0$; (iii) a uniqueness result for weak solutions (in the distribution sense); (iv) further results on existence of weak solutions...

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...

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...
