It is shown that a twist of a Dirichlet series by a Dirichlet character may lead to very different analytic properties.

Let B denote the unit ball in Cn, and ν the normalized Lebesgue measure on B. For α > −1, define Here cα is a positive constant such that να(B) = 1. Let H(B) denote the space of all holomorphic functions in B. For a twice differentiable, nondecreasing, nonnegative strongly convex function ϕ on the real line R, define the Bergman-Orlicz space Aϕ(να) by

In this paper we prove that a function f ∈ H(B) is in Aϕ(να) if and only if where is the radial derivative of f.

We examine what can be said about a polynomial p and an entire function f given that p o f is an even, or an odd, function.

Let G be a locally compact abelian group, 1 < p < ∞, and A be a commutative Banach algebra. In this paper we study the space of multipliers on Lp (G, A) and characterize it as the space of multipliers of certain banach algebra. We also study the multipliers space on L1 (G, A) ∩ Lp (G, A).

Some geometric properties of Lp spaces are studied which shed light on the prediction of infinite variance processes. In particular, a Pythagorean theorem for Lp is derived. Improved growth rates for the moving average parameters are obtained.

We exhibit a canonical geometric pairing of the simple closed curves of the degree three cover of the modular surface, Γ3\ℋ, with the proper single self-intersecting geodesics of Crisp and Moran. This leads to a pairing of fundamental domains for Γ3 with Markoff triples.

The routes of the simple closed geodesics are directly related to the above. We give two parametrizations of these. Combining with work of Cohn, we achieve a listing of all simple closed geodesics of length within any bounded interval. Our method is direct, avoiding the determination of geodesic lengths below the chosen lower bound.

Let N be a closed s-Hopfian n-manifold with residually finite, torsion free π1 (N) and finite H1(N). Suppose that either πk(N) is finitely generated for all k ≥ 2, or πk(N) ≅ 0 for 1 < k < n – 1, or n ≤ 4. We show that if N fails to be a co-dimension 2 fibrator, then N cyclically covers itself, up to homotopy type.

We will show the existence, uniqueness and regularity of global solutions for the Cauchy problem for nonlinear evolution equations with the damping term .

As an application of our results, we give the global solvability and regularity of the mixed problem with Dirichiet boundary conditions:

We determine the naturally reductive homogeneous real hypersurfaces in the family of curvature-adapted real hypersurfaces in quaternionic projective space HPn(n ≥ 3). We conclude that the naturally reductive curvature-adapted real hypersurfaces in HPn are Q-quasiumbilical and vice-versa. Further, we study the same problem in quaternionic hyperbolic space HHn(n ≥ 3).

Let X, Y be compact Hausdorff spaces and E, F be Banach spaces. A linear map T: C(X, E) → C(Y, F) is separating if Tf, Tg have disjoint cozeroes whenever f, g have disjoint cozeroes. We prove that a biseparating linear bijection T (that is, T and T-1 are separating) is a weighted composition operator Tf = h · f o ϕ. Here, h is a function from Y into the set of invertible linear operators from E onto F, and ϕ, is a homeomorphism from Y onto X. We also show that T is bounded if and only if h(y) is a bounded operator from E onto F for all y in Y. In this case, h is continuous with respect to the strong operator topology.

We characterize the pairs of weights (u, v) for which the maximal operator is of weak and restricted weak type (p, p) with respect to u(x)dx and v(x)dx. As a consequence we obtain analogous results for We apply the results to the study of the Cesàro-α convergence of singular integrals.

Pseudo-effect algebras are partial algebras (E; +, 0, 1) with a partially defined addition + which is not necessary commutative and with two complements, left and right ones. We define central elements of a pseudo-effect algebra and the centre, which in the case of MV-algebras coincides with the set of Boolean elements and in the case of effect algebras with the Riesz decomposition property central elements are only characteristic elements. If E satisfies general comparability, then E is a pseudo MV-algebra. Finally, we apply central elements to obtain a variation of the Cantor-Bernstein theorem for pseudo-effect algebras.
