This paper is a continuation of three recent articles concerning the structure of hyperinvariant subspace lattices of operators on a (separable, infinite dimensional) Hilbert space . We show herein, in particular, that there exists a “universal” fixed block-diagonal operator B on such that if ε > 0 is given and T is an arbitrary nonalgebraic operator on , then there exists a compact operator K of norm less than ε such that (i) Hlat(T) is isomorphic as a complete lattice to Hlat(B + K) and (ii) B + K is a quasidiagonal, C00, (BCP)-operator with spectrum and left essential spectrum the unit disc. In the last four sections of the paper, we investigate the possible structures of the hyperlattice of an arbitrary algebraic operator. Contrary to existing conjectures, Hlat(T) need not be generated by the ranges and kernels of the powers of T in the nilpotent case. In fact, this lattice can be infinite.

A commutative Banach algebra is called symmetric if, regarded as a function algebra on its maximal ideal space, it is closed under complex conjugation. Varopoulos, [5], proved the asymmetry of the tensor algebra , where T is the unit circle. It is the object of this paper to prove the asymmetry of the Schur multipliers of the space , where m is the Lebesgue measure. In the second part of the paper we study the Hankel multipliers of the space and give an application to it.1. The asymmetry of. Let C(T) denote the space of continuous functions on T and A(T) be the space of those functions in C(T) that have absolutely convergent Fourier series. Consider the mapping F: C(T) → C(T × T) defined by F(f)(x, y) = f (x + y).

Throughout this paper, S will denote a finite semigroup and Z+ the set of positive integers. E = E(S) denotes the set of idempotents of S. Let . If , then let AB = {ab| a ∈ A, b ∈ B}. has been studied by many authors, including [2, 3, 5, 6, 7]. If X is a set, then |X| denotes the cardinality of X. For undefined terms in this paper, see [1,4].THEOREM 1. Let I be an ideal of S, a subgroup of . Then has a normal subgroups such that is isomorphic to a subgroup of and is isomorphic to a subgroup of .

The aim of this paper is to extend to a suitable class of topological semigroups parts of well-defined theory of representations of topological groups. In attempting to obtain these results it was soon realized that no general theory was likely to be obtainable for all locally compact semigroups. The reason for this is the absence of any analogue of the group algebra Ll(G). So the theory in this paper is restricted to a certain family of topological semigroups. In this account we shall only give the details of those parts of proofs which depart from the standard proofs of analogous theorems for groups.On a locally compact semigroup S the algebra of all μ ∊ M(S) for which the mapping and of S to M(S) (where denotes the point mass at x) are continuous when M(S) has the weak topology was first studied in the sequence of papers [1, 2, 3] by A. C. and J. W. Baker.

Let Gn = Spn(F) be the rank n symplectic group with entries in a nondyadic p-adic field F. We further let be the metaplectic extension of Gn by defined using the Leray cocycle. In this paper, we aim to demonstrate the complete list of reducibility points of the genuine principal series of . In most cases, we will use some techniques developed by Tadić that analyze the Jacquetmodules with respect to all of the parabolics containing a fixed Borel. The exceptional cases involve representations induced from unitary characters χ with χ2 = 1. Because such representations π are unitary, to show the irreducibility of π, it suffices to show that . We will accomplish this by examining the poles of certain intertwining operators associated to simple roots. Then some results of Shahidi and Ban decompose arbitrary intertwining operators into a composition of operators corresponding to the simple roots of . We will then be able to show that all such operators have poles at principal series representations induced from quadratic characters and therefore such operators do not extend to operators in for the π in question.

Let be a compact Riemann surface, be the complement of a nonvoid finite subset of and A() be the ring of finite sums of meromorphic functions in with finite divisor. In this paper it is proved that every nonzero f ∈ A() can be decomposed as a product αβ, where α is either a unit or a product of powers of irreducible elements of A(), uniquely determined by f up to multiplication by units, and β is a product of functions of the type eφ – 1, with φ holomorphic and nonconstant in . Furthermore, a similar result is obtained for a certain class of subrings of A().

The S-function , where is the ‘new multiplication' or plethysm of D. E. Littlewood [1], corresponds, in the sense defined below in (1), to the character afforded by a representation of the symmetric group Slm induced from a representation of the subgroup . The aim of this paper is to define the latter representation and deduce its character using a somewhat different approach from that in [3].

(1) The symbols p and q stand for prime numbers and throughout the paper we assume that p is fixed and contained in {3, 5, 7}. Let L be an algebraic number field (i.e., L is a finite extension of Q). Then prime divisors of L dividing p (resp. q) are denoted by (resp. ). The completion of L with respect to is denoted by . Let S be a finite set of prime numbers, and let M/L be a Galois extension with abelian Galois group of exponent p.Definition. M/L is said to be little ramified outside S if for primes q ∉ S and all one haswith k ∊ N and . Here ζp is a pth root of unity, u1, …, uk are elements in and is the normed valuation belonging to . In particular M/L is unramified at all divisors of primes q ∉ S ∪ {p}.

1. Introduction. Throughout this paper, G is a connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field whose characteristic is denoted p. For any closed subgroup H of G, denotes the Lie algebra of H and H0 denotes the connected component of the identity of H.A Borel subalgebra of is the Lie algebra of some Borel subgroup B of G. A maximal torus of is the Lie algebra of some maximal torus T of G. In [4], it is shown that the maximal tori of are the maximal commutative subalgebras of consisting of semisimple elements, and the question was raised in § 14.3 as to whether the set of Borel subalgebras of is the set of maximal triangulable subalgebras of .

In the first part of the paper, given a continuous map f from a Hausdorff topological space X onto a Hausdorff topological space Y, we consider the reciprocal map f* from Y into the collection of closed subsets of X, which maps y ∈ Y to . is endowed with the pseudotopological structure of convergence of closed sets. We will use the filter description of this convergence, as defined by Choquet and Gähler [2], [5], which is equivalent to the “topological convergence” of sets as introduced by Frolík and Mrówka [4], [10]. These notions in fact generalize the convergence of sequences of sets defined by Hausdorff [6]. We show that the continuity of f* is equivalent to the openness of f. On f*(Y), the set of fibers of f, we consider the pseudotopological structure induced by the closed convergence on .

Let be a valuation ring with unit element, i.e., is a commutative ring such that for any a and b in , either a divides b or b divides a. We assume 2 is a unit of . V is an n-ary nonsingular quadratic module over , O(V) or On(V) is the orthogonal group on V, and S is the set of symmetries in O(V). We define l(σ) to be the minimal number of factors in the expression of a of O(V) as a product of symmetries on V. For the case where is a field, l(σ) has been determined by P. Scherk [6] and J. Dieudonné [1]. In [3] I have generalized the results of Scherk to orthogonal groups over valuation domains. In the present paper I generalize my results of [3] to orthogonal groups over valuation rings.Since is a valuation ring, it is a local ring with the maximal ideal A which consists of all nonunits of .

This paper is concerned with some extensions of the Bures metric d defined on the set of normal states of a W*-algebra [2]. Each subgroup G of the automorphism group of leads naturally to a semi-metric dG. (See Definition 1.1 below.) When G is the identity group dG = d.

Throughout this paper, it is assumed that A is the complete, equicharacteristic, local ring of an algebraic curve at a one-branch singularity whose residue field is algebraically closed and contained in A. Hence, the domain A is dominated by only one valuation ring in its quotient held F, and if t is a uniformizing parameter, then the integral closure of A in F, denoted by Ā, is [[t]].

This paper contains an inequality about functions which are analytic and have a positive real part in the unit disk. A first consequence of the inequality is the fact that if is analytic for |z| < 1 and has values lying in a strip of width δ. This result is known and was first proved by Tammi (1).Our second theorem is a generalization of this. Namely, ifis analytic for |z| < 1 and satisfies Re{zmf(m>(z)} ≧ A andthenconverges.Another application of our fundamental inequality is the following. Let be analytic for |z| < 1 and satisfy Re p(z) ≧ 0 and set and .

A variety (primitive class) is a class of abstract algebras which is closed under the formation of subalgebras, homomorphic images, and products. For a given variety we shall call a function μ*, which assigns to each algebra a natural number or ∞, denoted by μ*(A), a variety invariant if for every natural number n the class of all with μ*(A) ≦ n is again a variety. In this paper, a general method of finding variety invariants for the variety of all modular lattices will be developed. This method will be based on the concept of a quotient tree of a modular lattice. As examples of variety invariants we shall define, using the general result, the primitive length and the primitive width of modular lattices.

This paper is a sequel to [2], whose primary purposes are to clarify and generalize the concept introduced there of an eigenfunction of an inner function, and to answer questions raised there concerning the equivalence of several possible forms of the definition. A new definition, proposed here, leads to a complete characterization of the eigenfunctions of Potapov inner functions of normal operators, and the result is more satisfactory than [2, Theorem 3.4], although the latter is used strongly in the proof.Let be an inner function in the sense of Lax; i.e., is almost everywhere (a.e.) a unitary operator on a separable Hilbert space and belongs weakly to the Hardy class H2. An analytic function q (which will have to be a scalar inner function) was defined to be an eigenfunction of if the set of z in the disk {z: |z| ≦ 1} for which is invertible is a set of linear measure 0 on the circle {z: |z| = 1}.

Let be a finite-dimensional linear associative algebra over the real field R or the complex field C and let F be a function with domain and range in .Several classes of functions on have been discussed in the literature, and it is the purpose of this paper to discuss the relationships between these classes and to present some interesting examples. First we shall list the definitions of the classes we wish to consider here.

In an earlier work, we defined and described a new group algebra , which is a von Neumann algebra containing the group G (3). In this paper we continue this study be relating the lattice of normal subgroups of the group G to the lattice of central projections of the group algebra . More precisely, we shall exhibit a one-to-one mapping ϕ of the lattice of closed normal subgroups of G into the lattice of central projections of , having the property that if N1 ⊂ N2, then ϕ(N2) ≤ ϕ(N1).
