Linear operators satisfying the chain rule.
Several mean value theorems for higher order divided differences and approximate Peano derivatives are proved.
For a differentiable function where is a real interval and , a counterpart of the Lagrange mean-value theorem is presented. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a mean such that are given. Similar considerations for a theorem accompanying the Lagrange mean-value theorem are presented.
For subspaces, and , of the space, , of all derivatives denotes the set of all such that for all . Subspaces of are defined depending on a parameter . In Section 6, is determined for each of these subspaces and in Section 7, is found for and any of these subspaces. In Section 3, is determined for other spaces of functions on related to continuity and higher order differentiation.
Let be a holomorphic function and a holomorphic self-map of the open unit disk in the complex plane. We provide new characterizations for the boundedness of the weighted composition operators from Zygmund type spaces to Bloch type spaces in in terms of , , their derivatives, and , the -th power of . Moreover, we obtain some similar estimates for the essential norms of the operators , from which sufficient and necessary conditions of compactness of follows immediately.
