Chu-Dualität und zwei Klassen maximal fastperiodischer Gruppen

This is a continuation of the paper Zwei Klassen lokalkompakter maximal fastperiodischer Gruppen, [6]. In [6], the classes and were introduced. We give sufficient conditions to conclude thatG is in if one knows thatG/G ₀ is in . If a groupG is in and ifG satisfies the Chu-duality then all closed subgroups ofG satisfy the Chu-duality. The Chu-quasi-dual of the Heisenberg groupH with integral coefficients is computed. It is shown thatH does not satisfy the Chu-duality, thatH is in , and thatH is not in .

Case 3:m 0 and every prime that dividesm also dividespf–1. It is not assumed that thev ^th roots of unity are inF for anyv 2.     

Homogeneous algebraic varieties defined by Jordan pairs

Every Jordan pair defines an algebraic varietyX containing as a dense open subset.X is projective (affine) if and only if is separable (radical). The Picard group ofX is generated by the irreducible factors of the generic norm of . If is separable then the automorphism group ofX is the projective group of .     

On periodic groups of automorphisms of extremal groups

It is proved that if a periodic group has an extremal normal divisor , determining a complete abelian factor group , then the center of the group contains a complete abelian subgroup , satisfying the relation and intersecting on a finite subgroup. It is also established with the aid of this proposition that every periodic group of automorphisms of an extremal group is a finite extension of a contained in it subgroup of inner automorphisms of the group .Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 4, No. 1, pp. 91–96, July, 1968.     

Zwei Klassen lokalkompakter maximal fastperiodischer Gruppen

In this paper we study the class of all locally compact groupsG with the property that for each closed subgroupH ofG there exists a pair of homomorphisms into a compact group withH as coincidence set, and the class of all locally compact groupG with the property that finite dimensional unitary representations of subgroups ofG can be extended to finite dimensional representations ofG. It is shown that [MOORE]-groups (every irreducible unitary representation is finite dimensional) have these two properties. A solvable group in is a [MOORE]-group. Moreover, we prove a structure theorem for Lie groups in the class [MOORE], and show that compactly generated Lie groups in [MOORE] have faithful finite dimensional unitary representations.

As an application, we study holomorphy in large subgroups of isometries of Lie groups.

Functions of translation type and functorial properties of Segal algebras II

In this paper we investigate functorial properties of the Segal algebra which consists of all functionsf in Wiener's algebra onG with Fourier transform in Wiener's algebra on the dual group . Especially may serve as a very large and natural domain for Poisson's formula. Moreover, there is introduced a Segal algebraE ₀(G) containing as a subspace, but still eachfE ₀(S) satisfies Poisson's formula.     

Positive elements in the algebra of the quantum moment problem

Summary Let denote the extended Weyl algebra, , the Weyl algebra. It is well known that every element of of the formA=B _k ^* B _k is positive. We prove that the converse implication also holds: Every positive elementA in has a quadratic sum factorization for some finite set of elements (B _k ) in . The corresponding result is not true for the subalgebra . We identify states on which do not extend to states on . It follows from a result of Powers (and Arveson) that such states on cannot be completely positive. Our theorem is based on a certain regularity property for the representations which are generated by states on , and this property is not in general shared by representations generated by states defined only on the subalgebra .Work supported in part by the NSF     

Über zweiparametrige ebene Bewegungsvorgänge

TheBlaschke-Grünwald-map associates to each surface in the quasielliptic space a planar euclidean two-parameter motion . Using this map we find kinematic meanings of the Gaussian quasielliptic curvature and furthermore some theorems about the asymptotic motions of . The kinematic equivalent of the relation of left-conjugated tangents in points of is a regular or singular projectivity on each poleline of . This projectivities have been studied already byH. J. E. Beth andW. v.d. Woude. We show that in every position the quadratic curvature transformations of almost all one-parameter motions of are determined by .     

Groupwise density and related cardinals

We prove several theorems about the cardinal associated with groupwise density. With respect to a natural ordering of families of nond-ecreasing maps from to, all families of size are below all unbounded families. With respect to a natural ordering of filters on, all filters generated by sets are below all non-feeble filters. If then and . (The definitions of these cardinals are recalled in the introduction.) Finally, some consequences deduced from by Laflamme are shown to be equivalent to .     

Notes on Brown-McCoy-radicals for Γ-near-rings

The Brown-McCoy radical is known to be an ideal-hereditary Kurosh-Amitsur radical in the variety of zerosymmetric near-rings. We define the Brown-McCoy and simplical radicals, and , respectively, for zerosymmetric -near-rings. Both and are ideal-hereditary Kurosh-Amitsur radicals in that variety. IfM is a zerosymmetric -near-ring with left operator near-ringL, it is shown that , with equality ifM has a strong left unity. is extended to the variety of arbitrary near-rings, and and are extended to the variety of arbitrary -near-rings, in a way that they remain Kurosh-Amitsur radicals. IfN is a near-ring andA N, then , with equality ifA if left invariant.

Generalized Harish-Chandra Modules: A New Direction in the Structure Theory of Representations

Let be a reductive Lie algebra over C. We say that a -module M is a generalized Harish-Chandra module if, for some subalgebra , M is locally -finite and has finite -multiplicities. We believe that the problem of classifying all irreducible generalized Harish-Chandra modules could be tractable. In this paper, we review the recent success with the case when is a Cartan subalgebra. We also review the recent determination of which reductive in subalgebras are essential to a classification. Finally, we present in detail the emerging picture for the case when is a principal 3-dimensional subalgebra.     

A Helly-type theorem for simple polygons

Let be a family of simple polygons in the plane. If every three (not necessarily distinct) members of have a simply connected union and every two members of have a nonempty intersection, then {P:P in } . Applying the result to a finite family of orthogonally convex polygons, the set {C:C in } will be another orthogonally convex polygon, and, in certain circumstances, the dimension of this intersection can be determined.Supported in part by NSF grant DMS-9207019.
