That Euler was quite aware of the subtleties of assigning a sum to a divergent series is amply demonstrated in his paper De seriebus divergentibus which appeared in Novi commentarii academiae scientiarum Petropolitanae 5 (1754/55), 205–237 (= Opera Omnia (1) 14, 585–617) in the year 1760. The first half of this paper contains a detailed exposition of Euler's views which should be more readily accessible to the mathematical community.The authors present here a translation from Latin of the summary and first twelve sections of Euler's paper with some explanatory comments. The remainder of the paper, treating Wallis' hypergeometric series and other technical matter, is described briefly. Appended is a short bibliography of works concerning Euler which are available to the English-speaking reader.

Although planar quadratic differential systems and their applications have been studied in more than one thousand papers, we still have no complete understanding of these systems. In this paper we have two objectives. First we provide a brief bibliographical survey on the main results about quadratic systems. Here we do not consider the applications of these systems to many areas as in Physics, Chemist, Economics, Biology, … Second we characterize the new class of planar separable quadratic polynomial differential systems. For such class of systems we provide the normal forms which contain one parameter, and using the Poincare compactification and the blow up technique, we prove that there exist 10 non-equivalent topological phase portraits in the Poincare disc for the separable quadratic polynomial differential systems.

The singular value decomposition of a complex matrix is a fundamental concept in linear algebra and has proved extremely useful in many subjects. It is less clear what the situation is over a finite field. In this paper, we classify the orbits of GU m ( q ) × GU n ( q ) on M m × n ( q 2 ) (which is the analog of the singular value decomposition). The proof involves Kronecker’s theory of pencils and the Lang–Steinberg theorem for algebraic groups. Besides the motivation mentioned above, this problem came up in a recent paper of Guralnick et al. (2020) where a concept of character level for the complex irreducible characters of finite, general or special, linear and unitary groups was studied and bounds on the number of orbits was needed. A consequence of this work determines possible pairs of Jordan forms for nilpotent matrices of the form A A ∗ and A ∗ A over a finite field and A A ⊤ and A ⊤ A over arbitrary fields.

The purpose of this paper is to show well-posedness results in L 2 -based Sobolev spaces for transmission, Dirichlet, Neumann, and mixed boundary value problems for the Brinkman system with L ∞ coefficients in Lipschitz domains on a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension m ≥ 2 . The Dirichlet, transmission, and mixed problems for the nonlinear Darcy-Forchheimer-Brinkman system with L ∞ coefficients are also analyzed. First, we focus on the well-posedness of linear transmission, Dirichlet and mixed boundary value problems for the Brinkman system with L ∞ coefficients in Lipschitz domains on compact Riemannian manifolds by using a variational approach that reduces such a boundary value problem to a mixed variational formulation defined in terms of two bilinear continuous forms, one of them satisfying a coercivity condition and another one the inf-sup condition. Further, we show the equivalence between each boundary value problem for the Brinkman system with L ∞ coefficients and its mixed variational counterpart, and then the well posedness in L 2 -based Sobolev spaces by using the Necas-Babuska-Brezzi technique. The second goal of this paper is the construction of the Newtonian and layer potential operators for the Brinkman system with L ∞ coefficients in Lipschitz domains on compact Riemannian manifolds by using the well-posedness results for the analyzed linear transmission problems. Various mapping properties of these operators are also obtained and used to describe the weak solutions of the Poisson problems with Dirichlet and Neumann conditions for the nonsmooth Brinkman system in terms of such potentials. Finally, we combine the well-posedness results of the Poisson problems of Dirichlet, transmission, and mixed type for the nonsmooth Brinkman system with a fixed point theorem in order to show the existence of a weak solution of the Poisson problem of Dirichlet, transmission, or mixed type for the (nonlinear) Darcy-Forchheimer-Brinkman system with L ∞ coefficients in L 2 -based Sobolev spaces in Lipschitz domains on compact Riemannian manifolds of dimension m ∈ { 2 , 3 } .

We present a historical commentary together with an English translation of a mathematical-philosophical paper by the Czech differential geometer and later proponent of a geometrized unified field theory Vaclav Hlavatý (1894–1969). The paper was published in 1924 at the height of interpretational debates about recent advancements in differential geometry triggered by the advent of Einstein's general theory of relativity. In the paper he argued against a naive generalization of analogical reasoning valid for curves and surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space to the case of higher-dimensional curved Riemannian spaces. Instead, he claimed, the only secure ground to arrive at results is analytical calculation. We briefly discuss the biographical circumstances of the composition of the paper and characterize its publication venue the journal Ruch filosofický. We also give a discussion of the mathematical background for Hlavatý's argument.

Though the boundary layer formation in the chemotactic process has been observed in experiment (cf. [63] ), the mathematical study on the boundary layer solutions of chemotaxis models is just in its infant stage. Apart from the sophisticated theoretical tools involved in the analysis, how to impose/derive physical boundary conditions is a state-of-the-art in studying the boundary layer problem of chemotaxis models. This paper will proceed with a previous work [24] in one dimension to establish the convergence of boundary layer solutions of the Keller–Segel model with singular sensitivity in a two-dimensional space (half-plane) with respect to the chemical diffusion rate denoted by e ≥ 0 . Compared to the one-dimensional boundary layer problem, there are many new issues arising from multi-dimensions such as possible Prandtl type degeneracy, curl-free preservation and well-posedness of large-data solutions. In this paper, we shall derive appropriate physical boundary conditions and gradually overcome these barriers and hence establish the convergence of boundary layer solutions of the singular Keller–Segel system in the half-plane as the chemical diffusion rate vanishes. Specially speaking, we justify that the boundary layer converges to the outer layer (solution with e = 0 ) plus the inner layer as e → 0 , where both outer and inner layer profiles are precisely derived and well understood. By doing this, the structure of boundary layer solutions is clearly characterized. We hope that our results and methods can shed lights on the understanding of underlying mechanisms of the boundary layer patterns observed in the experiment for chemotaxis such as the work by Tuval et al. [63] , and open a new window in the future theoretical study of chemotaxis models.

Diaconis and Griffiths (2014) study the multivariate Krawtchouk polynomials orthogonal on the multinomial distribution. In this paper we derive the reproducing kernel orthogonal polynomials Q n ( x , y ; N , p ) on the multinomial distribution which are sums of products of orthonormal polynomials in x and y of fixed total degree n = 0 , 1 , … , N . The Poisson kernel ∑ n = 0 N ρ n Q n ( x , y ; N , p ) arises naturally from a probabilistic argument. An application to a multinomial goodness of fit test is developed, where the chi-squared test statistic is decomposed into orthogonal components which test the order of fit. A new duplication formula for the reproducing kernel polynomials in terms of the 1-dimensional Krawtchouk polynomials is derived. The duplication formula allows a Lancaster characterization of all reversible Markov chains with a multinomial stationary distribution whose eigenvectors are multivariate Krawtchouk polynomials and where eigenvalues are repeated within the same total degree. The χ 2 cutoff time, and total variation cutoff time is investigated in such chains. Emphasis throughout the paper is on a probabilistic understanding of the polynomials and their applications, particularly to Markov chains.

From spline theory it is well-known that univariate cubic spline interpolation, if carried out in its natural Hilbert space W 2 2 [ a , b ] and on point sets with fill distance h , converges only like O ( h 2 ) in L 2 [ a , b ] if no additional assumptions are made. But superconvergence up to order h 4 occurs if more smoothness is assumed and if certain additional boundary conditions are satisfied. This phenomenon was generalized in 1999 to multivariate interpolation in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces on domains Ω ⊂ R d for continuous positive definite Fourier-transformable shift-invariant kernels on R d . But the sufficient condition for superconvergence given in 1999 still needs further analysis, because the interplay between smoothness and boundary conditions is not clear at all. Furthermore, if only additional smoothness is assumed, superconvergence is numerically observed in the interior of the domain, but a theoretical foundation still is a challenging open problem. This paper first generalizes the “improved error bounds” of 1999 by an abstract theory that includes the Aubin–Nitsche trick and the known superconvergence results for univariate polynomial splines. Then the paper analyzes what is behind the sufficient conditions for superconvergence. They split into conditions on smoothness and localization, and these are investigated independently. If sufficient smoothness is present, but no additional localization conditions are assumed, it is numerically observed that superconvergence always occurs in the interior of the domain, and some supporting arguments are provided. If smoothness and localization interact in the kernel-based case on R d , weak and strong boundary conditions in terms of pseudodifferential operators occur. A special section on Mercer expansions is added, because Mercer eigenfunctions always satisfy the sufficient conditions for superconvergence. Numerical examples illustrate the theoretical findings.

Motivated by two identities published with Ramanujan's lost notebook and connected, respectively, with the Gauss circle problem and the Dirichlet divisor problem, in an earlier paper, three of the present authors derived representations for certain sums of products of trigonometric functions as double series of Bessel functions [8] . These series are generalized in the present paper by introducing the novel notion of balanced derivatives, leading to further theorems. As we will see below, the regions of convergence in the unbalanced case are entirely different than those in the balanced case. From this viewpoint, it is remarkable that Ramanujan had the intuition to formulate entries that are, in our new terminology, “balanced”. If x denotes the number of products of the trigonometric functions appearing in our sums, in addition to proving the identities mentioned above, theorems and conjectures for upper and lower bounds for the sums as x → ∞ are established.

The Langlands functoriality conjecture, as reformulated in the “beyond endoscopy” program, predicts comparisons between the (stable) trace formulas of different groups G 1 , G 2 for every morphism G 1 L → L G 2 between their L-groups. This conjecture can be seen as a special case of a more general conjecture, which replaces reductive groups by spherical varieties and the trace formula by its generalization, the relative trace formula. The goal of this article and its precursor [11] is to demonstrate, by example, the existence of “transfer operators” between relative trace formulas, which generalize the scalar transfer factors of endoscopy. These transfer operators have all properties that one could expect from a trace formula comparison: matching, fundamental lemma for the Hecke algebra, transfer of (relative) characters. Most importantly, and quite surprisingly, they appear to be of abelian nature (at least, in the low-rank examples considered in this paper), even though they encompass functoriality relations of non-abelian harmonic analysis. Thus, they are amenable to application of the Poisson summation formula in order to perform the global comparison. Moreover, we show that these abelian transforms have some structure — which presently escapes our understanding in its entirety — as deformations of well-understood operators when the spaces under consideration are replaced by their “asymptotic cones”. In this second paper we use Rankin–Selberg theory to prove the local transfer behind Rudnick's 1990 thesis (comparing the stable trace formula for SL 2 with the Kuznetsov formula) and Venkatesh's 2002 thesis (providing a “beyond endoscopy” proof of functorial transfer from tori to GL 2 ). As it turns out, the latter is not completely disjoint from endoscopic transfer — in fact, our proof “factors” through endoscopic transfer. We also study the functional equation of the symmetric-square L-function for GL 2 , and show that it is governed by an explicit “Hankel operator” at the level of the Kuznetsov formula, which is also of abelian nature. A similar theory for the standard L-function was previously developed (in a different language) by Jacquet.

In the previous paper [Yamada, Chaos, Solitons $\&$ Fractals, {\bf 109},99(2018)], we investigated localization properties of one-dimensional disordered electronic system with long-range correlation generated by modified Bernoulli (MB) map. In the present paper, we report localization properties of phonon in disordered harmonic chains generated by the MB map. Here we show that Lyapunov exponent becomes positive definite for almost all frequencies $\omega$ except $\omega=0$, and the $B-$dependence changes to exponential decrease for $B > 2 $, where $B$ is a correlation parameter of the MB map. The distribution of the Lyapunov exponent of the phonon amplitude has a slow convergence, different from that of uncorrelated disordered systems obeying a normal central-limit theorem. Moreover, we calculate the phonon dynamics in the MB chains. We show that the time-dependence of spread in the phonon amplitude and energy wave packet changes from that in the disordered chain to that in the periodic one, as the correlation parameter $B$ increases., Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures

This paper investigates the drive-response finite-time anti-synchronization for memristive bidirectional associative memory neural networks (MBAMNNs). Firstly, a class of MBAMNNs with mixed probabilistic time-varying delays and stochastic perturbations is first formulated and analyzed in this paper. Secondly, an nonlinear control law is constructed and utilized to guarantee drive-response finite-time anti-synchronization of the neural networks. Thirdly, by employing some inequality technique and constructing an appropriate Lyapunov function, some anti-synchronization criteria are derived. Finally, a number simulation is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed mechanism.

It has been shown that natural interval extensions (NIE) can be used to calculate the largest positive Lyapunov exponent (LLE). However, the elaboration of NIE are not always possible for some dynamical systems, such as those modelled by simple equations or by Simulink-type blocks. In this paper, we use rounding mode of floating-point numbers to compute the LLE. We have exhibited how to produce two pseudo-orbits by means of different rounding modes; these pseudo-orbits are used to calculate the Lower Bound Error (LBE). The LLE is the slope of the line gotten from the logarithm of the LBE, which is estimated by means of a recursive least square algorithm (RLS). The main contribution of this paper is to develop a procedure to compute the LLE based on the LBE without using the NIE. Additionally, with the aid of RLS the number of required points has been decreased. Eight numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

A concept of emergence was recently introduced in the paper [Berger] in order to quantify the richness of possible statistical behaviors of orbits of a given dynamical system. In this paper, we develop this concept and provide several new definitions, results, and examples. We introduce the notion of topological emergence of a dynamical system, which essentially evaluates how big the set of all its ergodic probability measures is. On the other hand, the metric emergence of a particular reference measure (usually Lebesgue) quantifies how non-ergodic this measure is. We prove fundamental properties of these two emergences, relating them with classical concepts such as Kolmogorov's $\epsilon$-entropy of metric spaces and quantization of measures. We also relate the two types of emergences by means of a variational principle. Furthermore, we provide several examples of dynamics with high emergence. First, we show that the topological emergence of some standard classes of hyperbolic dynamical systems is essentially the maximal one allowed by the ambient. Secondly, we construct examples of smooth area-preserving diffeomorphisms that are extremely non-ergodic in the sense that the metric emergence of the Lebesgue measure is essentially maximal. These examples confirm that super-polynomial emergence indeed exists, as conjectured in the paper [Berger]. Finally, we prove that such examples are locally generic among smooth diffeomorphisms., Comment: v3: Final version; to appear in Advances in Mathematics

Completely multiplicative functions whose sum is zero ($CMO$). The paper deals with $CMO$, meaning completely multiplicative ($CM$) functions $f$ such that $f(1)=1$ and $\sum\limits_1^\infty f(n)=0$. $CM$ means $f(ab)=f(a)f(b)$ for all $(a,b)\in \N^{*2}$, therefore $f$ is well defined by the $f(p)$, $p$ prime. Assuming that $f$ is $CM$, give conditions on the $f(p)$, either necessary or sufficient, both is possible, for $f$ being $CMO$ : that is the general purpose of the authors. The $CMO$ character of $f$ is invariant under slight modifications of the sequence $(f(p))$ (theorem~3). The same idea applies also in a more general context (theorem~4). After general statements of that sort, including examples of $CMO$ (theorem~5), the paper is devoted to ``small'' functions, that is, functions of the form $\frac{f(n)}{n}$, where the $f(n)$ are bounded. Here is a typical result : if $|f(p)|\le 1$ and $Re\, f(p)\le0$ for all $p$, a necessary and sufficient condition for $\big(\frac{f(n)}{n}\big)$ to be $CMO$ is $\sum \, Re\, f(p)/p=-\infty$ (theorem~8). Another necessary and sufficient condition is given under the assumption that $|1+f(p)|\le 1$ and $f(2)\not=-2$ (theorem~7). A third result gives only a sufficient condition (theorem~9). The three results apply to the particular case $f(p)=-1$, the historical example of Euler. Theorems 7 and 8 need auxiliary results, coming either from the existing literature (Hal\'asz, Montgomery--Vaughan), or from improved versions of classical results (Ingham, Ska\l ba) about $f(n)$ under assumptions on the $f*1(n)$, * denoting the multiplicative convolution (theorems~10~and~11).

Let $G$ be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field and let $W$ be its Weyl group. In a series of papers, Lusztig introduced a map from the set $[W]$ of conjugacy classes of $W$ to the set $[G_u]$ of unipotent classes of $G$. This map, when restricted to the set of elliptic conjugacy classes $[W_e]$ of $W$, is injective. In this paper, we show that Lusztig's map $[W_e] \to [G_u]$ is order-reversing, with respect to the natural partial order on $[W_e]$ arising from combinatorics and the natural partial order on $[G_u]$ arising from geometry., Comment: 25 pages

Motivated by the paper Gerard-Varet and Dormy (2010) [6] [JAMS, 2010] about the linear ill-posedness for the Prandtl equations around a shear flow with exponential decay in normal variable, and the recent study of well-posedness on the Prandtl equations in Sobolev spaces, this paper aims to extend the result in [6] to the case when the shear flow has general decay. The key observation is to construct an approximate solution that captures the initial layer to the linearized problem motivated by the precise formulation of solutions to the inviscid Prandtl equations.

Reduction theory has played a major role in the study of Hamiltonian systems. Whilst the Hamilton–Jacobi theory is one of the main tools to integrate the dynamics of certain Hamiltonian problems and a topic of research on its own. Moreover, the construction of several symplectic integrators relies on approximations of a complete solution of the Hamilton–Jacobi equation. The natural question that we address in this paper is how these two topics (reduction and Hamilton–Jacobi theory) fit together. We obtain a reduction and reconstruction procedure for the Hamilton–Jacobi equation with symmetries, even in a generalized sense to be clarified below. Several applications and relations to other reduction of the Hamilton–Jacobi theory are shown in the last section of the paper. It is remarkable that as by-product we obtain a generalization of the Ge–Marsden reduction procedure [18] and the results in [17] . Quite surprisingly, the classical ansatze available in the literature to solve the Hamilton–Jacobi equation (see [2] , [19] ) are also particular instances of our framework.

The focus of this paper commences with an examination of three (not obviously related) pages in Ramanujan's lost notebook, pages 336, 335, and 332, in decreasing order of attention. On page 336, Ramanujan proposes two identities, but the formulas are wrong – each is vitiated by divergent series. We concentrate on only one of the two incorrect “identities,” which may have been devised to attack the extended divisor problem. We prove here a corrected version of Ramanujan's claim, which contains the convergent series appearing in it. The convergent series in Ramanujan's faulty claim is similar to one used by G.F. Voronoi, G.H. Hardy, and others in their study of the classical Dirichlet divisor problem. This now brings us to page 335, which comprises two formulas featuring doubly infinite series of Bessel functions, the first being conjoined with the classical circle problem initiated by Gauss, and the second being associated with the Dirichlet divisor problem. The first and fourth authors, along with Sun Kim, have written several papers providing proofs of these two difficult formulas in different interpretations. In this monograph, we return to these two formulas and examine them in more general settings. The aforementioned convergent series in Ramanujan's “identity” is also similar to one that appears in a curious identity found in Chapter 15 in Ramanujan's second notebook, written in a more elegant, equivalent formulation on page 332 in the lost notebook. This formula may be regarded as a formula for ζ ( 1 2 ) , and in 1925, S. Wigert obtained a generalization giving a formula for ζ ( 1 k ) for any even integer k ≥ 2 . We extend the work of Ramanujan and Wigert in this paper. The Voronoi summation formula appears prominently in our study. In particular, we generalize work of J.R. Wilton and derive an analogue involving the sum of divisors function σ s ( n ) . The modified Bessel functions K s ( x ) arise in several contexts, as do Lommel functions. We establish here new series and integral identities involving modified Bessel functions and modified Lommel functions. Among other results, we establish a modular transformation for an infinite series involving σ s ( n ) and modified Lommel functions. We also discuss certain obscure related work of N.S. Koshliakov. We define and discuss two new related classes of integral transforms, which we call Koshliakov transforms, because he first found elegant special cases of each.

In the first part of the paper we introduce some geometric tools needed to describe slow–fast Hamiltonian systems on smooth manifolds. We start with a smooth bundle p : M → B where ( M , ω ) is a C ∞ -smooth presymplectic manifold with a closed constant rank 2-form ω and ( B , λ ) is a smooth symplectic manifold. The 2-form ω is supposed to be compatible with the structure of the bundle, that is the bundle fibers are symplectic manifolds with respect to the 2-form ω and the distribution on M generated by kernels of ω is transverse to the tangent spaces of the leaves and the dimensions of the kernels and of the leaves are supplementary. This allows one to define a symplectic structure Ω e = ω + e − 1 p ∗ λ on M for any positive small e , where p ∗ λ is the lift of the 2-form λ to M . Given a smooth Hamiltonian H on M one gets a slow–fast Hamiltonian system with respect to Ω e . We define a slow manifold S M for this system. Assuming S M is a smooth submanifold, we define a slow Hamiltonian flow on S M . The second part of the paper deals with singularities of the restriction of p to S M . We show that if dim M = 4 , dim B = 2 and Hamilton function H is generic, then the behavior of the system near a singularity of fold type is described, to the main order, by the equation Painleve-I, and if this singularity is a cusp, then the related equation is Painleve-II.

In this paper we consider a punctured Riemann surface endowed with a Hermitian metric which equals the Poincar\'e metric near the punctures and a holomorphic line bundle which polarizes the metric. We show that the Bergman kernel can be localized around the singularities and its local model is the Bergman kernel of the punctured unit disc endowed with the standard Poincar\'e metric. As a consequence, we obtain an optimal uniform estimate of the supremum norm of the Bergman kernel, involving a fractional growth order of the tensor power., Comment: 42 pages, 2 figures; v.2 is a final update to agree with the published paper

We study the approximation of compact linear operators defined over certain weighted tensor product Hilbert spaces. The information complexity is defined as the minimal number of arbitrary linear functionals needed to obtain an e -approximation for the d -variate problem which is fully determined in terms of the weights and univariate singular values. Exponential tractability means that the information complexity is bounded by a certain function that depends polynomially on d and logarithmically on e − 1 . The corresponding unweighted problem was studied in Hickernell et al. (2020) with many negative results for exponential tractability. The product weights studied in the present paper change the situation. Depending on the form of polynomial dependence on d and logarithmic dependence on e − 1 , we study exponential strong polynomial, exponential polynomial, exponential quasi-polynomial, and exponential ( s , t ) -weak tractability with max ( s , t ) ≥ 1 . For all these notions of exponential tractability, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions on weights and univariate singular values for which it is indeed possible to achieve the corresponding notion of exponential tractability. The case of exponential ( s , t ) -weak tractability with max ( s , t ) 1 is left for future study. The paper uses some general results obtained in Hickernell et al. (2020) and Kritzer and Woźniakowski (2019).

Highlights • A stochastic staged progression AIDS model with staged treatment and second-order perturbation is studied. • The existence and uniqueness of the ergodic stationary distribution is obtained under the condition of. • If, we obtain that the AIDS epidemic will go to extinction in long-term., Focusing on deterministic AIDS model proposed by Hyman (2000) and the detailed data from the World Health Organization (WHO), there are three stages of AIDS process which are described as Acute infection period, Asymptomatic phase and AIDS stage. Our paper is therefore concerned with a stochastic staged progression AIDS model with staged treatment. In view of the complexity of random disturbances, we reasonably take second-order perturbation into consideration for realistic sense. By means of our creative transformation technique and stochastic Lyapunov method, a critical value R0H>1 is firstly obtained for the existence and uniqueness of ergodic stationary distribution to the stochastic system. Not only does it respectively reveal the corresponding dynamical effects of the linear and second-order perturbations to the model, but the unified form of second-order and linear fluctuations is derived. Next, some sufficient conditions about extinction of stochastic system are established in view of the basic reproduction number R0. Finally, some examples and numerical simulations are introduced to illustrate our analytical results. In addition, some advantages of our new method and theory are highlighted by comparison with other existing results at the end of this paper.

Highlights • We applied support vector machine for COVID-19 data from twelve countries • We tested different structures of nonlinearity using five Kernel functions • Empirical results indicated overfitting for the Gaussian Kernel • The linear Kernel had the worst in-sample but the best out-of-sample performance • We provided a visual analysis of the hyperparameters’ impacts on forecasting error, In this paper, we applied support vector regression to predict the number of COVID-19 cases for the 12 most-affected countries, testing for different structures of nonlinearity using Kernel functions and analyzing the sensitivity of the models’ predictive performance to different hyperparameters settings using 3-D interpolated surfaces. In our experiment, the model that incorporates the highest degree of nonlinearity (Gaussian Kernel) had the best in-sample performance, but also yielded the worst out-of-sample predictions, a typical example of overfitting in a machine learning model. On the other hand, the linear Kernel function performed badly in-sample but generated the best out-of-sample forecasts. The findings of this paper provide an empirical assessment of fundamental concepts in data analysis and evidence the need for caution when applying machine learning models to support real-world decision making, notably with respect to the challenges arising from the COVID-19 pandemics.

We consider models given by Hamiltonians of the form H ( I , φ , p , q , t ; e ) = h ( I ) + ∑ j = 1 n ± ( 1 2 p j 2 + V j ( q j ) ) + e Q ( I , φ , p , q , t ; e ) where I ∈ I ⊂ R d , φ ∈ T d , p , q ∈ R n , t ∈ T 1 . These are higher dimensional analogues, both in the center and hyperbolic directions, of the models studied in [28] , [29] , [43] and are usually called “a-priori unstable Hamiltonian systems”. All these models present the large gap problem. We show that, for 0 e ≪ 1 , under regularity and explicit non-degeneracy conditions on the model, there are orbits whose action variables I perform rather arbitrary excursions in a domain of size O ( 1 ) . This domain includes resonance lines and, hence, large gaps among d-dimensional KAM tori. This phenomenon is known as Arnold diffusion. The method of proof follows closely the strategy of [28] , [29] . The main new phenomenon that appears when the dimension d of the center directions is larger than one is the existence of multiple resonances in the space of actions I ∈ I ⊂ R d . We show that, since these multiple resonances happen in sets of codimension greater than one in the space of actions I, they can be contoured. This corresponds to the mechanism called diffusion across resonances in the Physics literature. The present paper, however, differs substantially from [28] , [29] . On the technical details of the proofs, we have taken advantage of the theory of the scattering map developed in [31] —notably the symplectic properties—which were not available when the above papers were written. We have analyzed the conditions imposed on the resonances in more detail. More precisely, we have found that there is a simple condition on the Melnikov potential which allows us to conclude that the resonances are crossed. In particular, this condition does not depend on the resonances. So that the results are new even when applied to the models in [28] , [29] .

This paper studies the approximation of the Hilbert transform f ? = H f of continuous functions f with continuous conjugate f ? based on a finite number of samples. It is known that every sequence { H N f } N ? N which approximates f ? from samples of f diverges (weakly) with respect to the uniform norm. This paper conjectures that all of these approximation sequences even contain no convergent subsequence. A property which is termed strong divergence.The conjecture is supported by two results. First it is proven that the sequence of the sampled conjugate Fejer means diverges strongly. Second, it is shown that for every sample based approximation method { H N } N ? N there are functions f such that ? H N f ? ∞ exceeds any given bound for any given number of consecutive indices N .As an application, the later result is used to investigate a problem associated with a question of Ul'yanov on Fourier series which is related to the possibility to construct adaptive approximation methods to determine the Hilbert transform from sampled data. This paper shows that no such approximation method with a finite search horizon exists.

In this paper we consider the following critical nonlocal problem { − L K u = λ u + | u | 2 ⁎ − 2 u in Ω u = 0 in R n ∖ Ω , where s ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) , Ω is an open bounded subset of R n , n > 2 s , with continuous boundary, λ is a positive real parameter, 2 ⁎ : = 2 n / ( n − 2 s ) is the fractional critical Sobolev exponent, while L K is the nonlocal integrodifferential operator L K u ( x ) : = ∫ R n ( u ( x + y ) + u ( x − y ) − 2 u ( x ) ) K ( y ) d y , x ∈ R n , whose model is given by the fractional Laplacian − ( − Δ ) s . Along the paper, we prove a multiplicity and bifurcation result for this problem, using a classical theorem in critical points theory. Precisely, we show that in a suitable left neighborhood of any eigenvalue of − L K (with Dirichlet boundary data) the number of nontrivial solutions for the problem under consideration is at least twice the multiplicity of the eigenvalue. Hence, we extend the result got by Cerami, Fortunato and Struwe in [14] for classical elliptic equations, to the case of nonlocal fractional operators.

This paper considers the problem of approximating the spectral factor of continuous spectral densities with finite Dirichlet energy based on finitely many samples of these spectral densities. Although there exists a closed form expression for the spectral factor, this formula shows a very complicated behavior because of the non-linear dependency of the spectral factor from spectral density and because of a singular integral in this expression. Therefore approximation methods are usually applied to calculate the spectral factor. It is shown that there exists no sampling-based method which depends continuously on the samples and which is able to approximate the spectral factor for all densities in this set. Instead, to any sampling-based approximation method there exists a large set of spectral densities so that the approximation method does not converge to the spectral factor for every spectral density in this set as the number of available sampling points is increased. The paper will also show that the same results hold for sampling-based algorithms for the calculation of the outer function in the theory of Hardy spaces.

Though much progress has been made with respect to the existence of extremals of the critical first order Trudinger-Moser inequalities in W 1 , n ( R n ) and higher order Adams inequalities on finite domain Ω ⊂ R n , whether there exists an extremal function for the critical higher order Adams inequalities on the entire space R n still remains open. The current paper represents the first attempt in this direction by considering the critical second order Adams inequality in the entire space R 4 . The classical blow-up procedure cannot apply to solving the existence of critical Adams type inequality because of the absence of the Polya-Szego type inequality. In this paper, we develop some new ideas and approaches based on a sharp Fourier rearrangement principle (see [31] ), sharp constants of the higher-order Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities and optimal poly-harmonic truncations to study the existence and nonexistence of the maximizers for the Adams inequalities in R 4 of the form S ( α ) = sup ‖ u ‖ H 2 = 1 ∫ R 4 ( exp ( 32 π 2 | u | 2 ) − 1 − α | u | 2 ) d x , where α ∈ ( − ∞ , 32 π 2 ) . We establish the existence of the threshold α ⁎ , where α ⁎ ≥ ( 32 π 2 ) 2 B 2 2 and B 2 ≥ 1 24 π 2 , such that S ( α ) is attained if 32 π 2 − α α ⁎ , and is not attained if 32 π 2 − α > α ⁎ . This phenomenon has not been observed before even in the case of first order Trudinger-Moser inequality. Therefore, we also establish the existence and non-existence of an extremal function for the Trudinger-Moser inequality on R 2 . Furthermore, the symmetry of the extremal functions can also be deduced through the Fourier rearrangement principle.

The design of a phase-based robust oscillator for wearable robots, that could assist humans performing periodic or repetitive tasks, is presented in this paper. The bounds on perturbations, that guaranteed the stability of the output for the phase oscillator controller, were identified and the Lyapunov redesign method was applied to construct a robust controller using a bounding function. The robust controller produced a bounded control signal to modify the amplitude and frequency of the resulting second-order oscillator to modulate the stiffness and damping properties. In this paper, the focus is on the mathematical modeling of the controller, its dynamic stability and robustness for human–robot application. The proposed approach was verified through a simple pendulum experiment. The results provided evidence that a better limit cycle, with a controlled radial spread of the steady state, was obtained with Lyapunov redesigned phase oscillator. Finally, the potential of the proposed approach for hip assistance in a healthy subject wearing HeSa (Hip Exoskeleton for Superior Assistance) during periodic activities are discussed with preliminary results.

The recent work of George Andrews and Mircea Merca on the truncated version of Euler's pentagonal number theorem has opened up a new study on truncated theta series. Since then several papers on the topic have followed. The main purpose of this paper is to generalize the study to Hecke-Rogers type double series, which are associated with some interesting partition functions. Our proofs heavily rely on a formula from the work of Zhi-Guo Liu on the q-partial differential equations and q-series.

Motivated by the works of Liu, we provide a unified approach to find Appell-Lerch series and Hecke-type series representations for mock theta functions. We establish a number of parameterized identities with two parameters $a$ and $b$. Specializing the choices of $(a,b)$, we not only give various known and new representations for the mock theta functions of orders 2, 3, 5, 6 and 8, but also present many other interesting identities. We find that some mock theta functions of different orders are related to each other, in the sense that their representations can be deduced from the same $(a,b)$-parameterized identity. Furthermore, we introduce the concept of false Appell-Lerch series. We then express the Appell-Lerch series, false Appell-Lerch series and Hecke-type series in this paper using the building blocks $m(x,q,z)$ and $f_{a,b,c}(x,y,q)$ introduced by Hickerson and Mortenson, as well as $\overline{m}(x,q,z)$ and $\overline{f}_{a,b,c}(x,y,q)$ introduced in this paper. We also show the equivalences of our new representations for several mock theta functions and the known representations., Comment: 87 pages, comments are welcome.

In this paper, we obtain an explicit formula for the discrepancy between the limit of the second inner variations of p -Laplace Allen–Cahn energies and the second inner variation of their Γ -limit which is the area functional. Our analysis explains the mysterious discrepancy term found in our previous paper [8] in the case p = 2 . The discrepancy term turns out to be related to the convergence of certain 4-tensors which are absent in the usual Allen–Cahn functional. These (hidden) 4-tensors suggest that, in the complex-valued Ginzburg–Landau setting, we should expect a different discrepancy term which we are able to identify. Along the way, we partially answer a question of Kohn and Sternberg [6] by giving a relation between the limit of second variations of the Allen–Cahn functional and the second inner variation of the area functional at local minimizers. Moreover, our analysis reveals an interesting identity connecting second inner variation and Poincare inequality for area-minimizing surfaces with volume constraint in the work of Sternberg and Zumbrun [16] .

In this paper we investigate quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) integration using digital nets over Z b in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. The tent transformation (previously called baker’s transform) was originally used for lattice rules by Hickernell (2002) to achieve higher order convergence of the integration error for smooth non-periodic integrands, and later, has been successfully applied to digital nets over Z 2 by Cristea et al. (2007) and Goda (2015). The aim of this paper is to generalize the latter two results to digital nets over Z b for an arbitrary prime b . For this purpose, we introduce the b -adic tent transformation for an arbitrary positive integer b greater than 1, which is a generalization of the original (dyadic) tent transformation. Further, again for an arbitrary positive integer b greater than 1, we analyze the mean square worst-case error of QMC rules using digital nets over Z b which are randomly digitally shifted and then folded using the b -adic tent transformation in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Using this result, for a prime b , we prove the existence of good higher order polynomial lattice rules over Z b among a smaller number of candidates as compared to the result by Dick and Pillichshammer (2007), which achieve almost the optimal convergence rate of the mean square worst-case error in unanchored Sobolev spaces of smoothness of arbitrary high order.

This paper is the the third part of a series of paper whose aim is to use of the framework of \emph{twisted spectral triples} to study conformal geometry from a noncommutive geometric viewpoint. In this paper we reformulate the inequality of Vafa-Witten \cite{VW:CMP84} in the setting of twisted spectral triples. This involves a notion of Poincar\'e duality for twisted spectral triples. Our main results have various consequences. In particular, we obtain a version in conformal geometry of the original inequality of Vafa-Witten, in the sense of an explicit control of the Vafa-Witten bound under conformal changes of metric. This result has several noncommutative manifestations for conformal deformations of ordinary spectral triples, spectral triples associated to conformal weights on noncommutative tori, and spectral triples associated to duals of torsion-free discrete cocompact subgroups satisfying the Baum-Connes conjecture., Comment: Final version. 38 pages

Let C be the complex Levi-Civita field and let c 0 ( C ) or, simply, c 0 denote the space of all null sequences z = ( z n ) n ∈ N of elements of C . The natural inner product on c 0 induces the sup-norm of c 0 . In a previous paper Aguayo et al. (2013), we presented characterizations of normal projections, adjoint operators and compact operators on c 0 . In this paper, we work on some B ∗ -algebras of operators, including those mentioned above; then we define an inner product on such algebras and prove that this inner product induces the usual norm of operators. We finish the paper with a characterization of closed subspaces of the B ∗ -algebra of all adjoint and compact operators on c 0 which admit normal complements.

The Calkin theorem provides a one-to-one correspondence between all operator ideals A(H) over the separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space H and all symmetric sequence ideals a(N) over the index set N≔{1,2,…}. The main idea of the present paper is to replace a(N) by the ideal z(N0) that consists of all sequences (αh) indexed by N0≔{0,1,2,…} for which (α0,α1,α1,…,αh,…,αh︷2hterms,…)∈a(N). This new kind of sequence ideals is characterized by two properties: (1) For (αh)∈z(N0) there is a non-increasing (βh)∈z(N0) such that ∣αh∣≤βh. (2) z(N0) is invariant under the operator S+:(α0,α1,α2,…)↦(0,α0,α1,…). Using this modification of the Calkin theorem, we simplify, unify, and complete earlier results of [4,5,7–9,13,14,19–21,25] The central theorem says that there are canonical isomorphisms between the linear spaces of all traces on A(H), all symmetric linear forms on a(N), and all 12S+-invariant linear forms on z(N0). In this way, the theory of linear forms on ideals of a non-commutative algebra that are invariant under the members of a non-commutative group is reduced to the theory of linear forms on ideals of a commutative algebra that are invariant under a single operator. It is hoped that the present approach deserves the rating “streamlined”. Our main objects are linear forms in the purely algebraic sense. Only at the end of this paper continuity comes into play, when the case of quasi-normed ideals is considered. We also sketch a classification of operator ideals according to the existence of various kinds of traces. Details will be discussed in a subsequent publication.

In this paper, we introduce and study an implicit iterative method to approximate a common solution of split equilibrium problem and fixed point problem for a nonexpansive semigroup in real Hilbert spaces. Further, we prove that the nets generated by the implicit iterative method converge strongly to the common solution of split equilibrium problem and fixed point problem for a nonexpansive semigroup. This common solution is the unique solution of a variational inequality problem and is the optimality condition for a minimization problem. Furthermore, we justify our main result through a numerical example. The results presented in this paper extend and generalize the corresponding results given by Plubtieng and Punpaeng [S. Plubtieng, R. Punpaeng, Fixed point solutions of variational inequalities for nonexpansive semigroups in Hilbert spaces, Math. Comput. Model. 48 (2008) 279–286] and Cianciaruso et al. [F.

In this paper, we continue investigations concerning generalized Orlicz–Lorentz sequence spaces λ φ initiated in the papers of Foralewski et al. (2008) [16] , [17] (cf. also Foralewski (2011) [11] , [12] ). As we will show in Example 1.1 , Example 1.2 , Example 1.3 the class of generalized Orlicz–Lorentz sequence spaces is much more wider than the class of classical Orlicz–Lorentz sequence spaces. Moreover, it is shown that if a Musielak–Orlicz function φ satisfies condition δ 2 λ , then λ φ has the coordinatewise Kadec–Klee property. Next, monotonicity properties are considered. In order to get sufficient conditions for uniform monotonicity of the space λ φ , a strong condition of δ 2 type and the notion of regularity of function φ are introduced. Finally, criteria for non-squareness of λ φ , of their subspaces of order continuous elements ( λ φ ) a as well as of finite dimensional subspaces λ φ n of λ φ are presented.

In this paper, we define a notion of AS-Gorenstein algebra for N -graded algebras, and show that symmetric AS-regular algebras of Gorenstein parameter 1 are exactly preprojective algebras of quasi-Fano algebras. This result can be compared with the fact that symmetric graded Frobenius algebras of Gorenstein parameter −1 are exactly trivial extensions of finite-dimensional algebras. The results of this paper suggest that there is a strong interaction between classification problems in noncommutative algebraic geometry and those in representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras.

We say that the polynomial sequence $(Q^{(\lambda)}_n)$ is a semiclassical Sobolev polynomial sequence when it is orthogonal with respect to the inner product $$ _S= +\lambda , $$ where ${\bf u}$ is a semiclassical linear functional, ${\mathscr D}$ is the differential, the difference or the $q$--difference operator, and $\lambda$ is a positive constant. In this paper we get algebraic and differential/difference properties for such polynomials as well as algebraic relations between them and the polynomial sequence orthogonal with respect to the semiclassical functional $\bf u$. The main goal of this article is to give a general approach to the study of the polynomials orthogonal with respect to the above nonstandard inner product regardless of the type of operator ${\mathscr D}$ considered. Finally, we illustrate our results by applying them to some known families of Sobolev orthogonal polynomials as well as to some new ones introduced in this paper for the first time., Comment: 23 pages, special issue dedicated to Professor Guillermo Lopez lagomasino on the occasion of his 60th birthday, accepted in Journal of Approximation Theory

In this paper our aim is to show some mean value inequalities for the modified Bessel functions of the first and second kinds. Our proofs are based on some bounds for the logarithmic derivatives of these functions, which are in fact equivalent to the corresponding Tur\'an type inequalities for these functions. As an application of the results concerning the modified Bessel function of the second kind we prove that the cumulative distribution function of the gamma-gamma distribution is log-concave. At the end of this paper several open problems are posed, which may be of interest for further research., Comment: 14 pages

In this paper, we rigorously prove the existence and stability of single-peaked patterns for the singularly perturbed Gierer–Meinhardt system on a compact two-dimensional Riemannian manifold without boundary which are far from spatial homogeneity. Throughout the paper we assume that the activator diffusivity ϵ 2 is small enough. We show that for the threshold ratio D ∼ 1 ϵ 2 of the activator diffusivity ϵ 2 and the inhibitor diffusivity D, the Gaussian curvature and the Green's function interact. A convex combination of the Gaussian curvature and the Green's function together with their derivatives are linked to the peak locations and the o ( 1 ) eigenvalues. A nonlocal eigenvalue problem (NLEP) determines the O ( 1 ) eigenvalues which all have negative part in this case.

In this paper we prove that, under an explicit integral pinching assumption between the L 2 -norm of the Ricci curvature and the L 2 -norm of the scalar curvature, a closed 3-manifold with positive scalar curvature admits a conformal metric of positive Ricci curvature. In particular, using a result of Hamilton, this implies that the manifold is diffeomorphic to a quotient of S 3 . The proof of the main result of the paper is based on ideas developed in an article by M. Gursky and J. Viaclovsky.
