Approximately Linear Mappings in Banach Modules over a C^＊-algebra

Let X and Y be vector spaces. The authors show that a mapping f ： X →Y satisfies the functional equation 2d f（∑^2d j=1（-1）^j＋1xj/2d）=∑^2dj=1（-1）^j＋1f（xj） with f（0） = 0 if and only if the mapping f ： X→ Y is Cauchy additive, and prove the stability of the functional equation （≠） in Banach modules over a unital C^＊-algebra, and in Poisson Banach modules over a unital Poisson C＊-algebra. Let A and B be unital C^＊-algebras, Poisson C^＊-algebras or Poisson JC^＊- algebras. As an application, the authors show that every almost homomorphism h ： A →B of A into is a homomorphism when h（（2d-1）^nuy） =- h（（2d-1）^nu）h（y） or h（（2d-1）^nuoy） = h（（2d-1）^nu）oh（y） for all unitaries u ∈A, all y ∈ A, n = 0, 1, 2,.... Moreover, the authors prove the stability of homomorphisms in C^＊-algebras, Poisson C^＊-algebras or Poisson JC^＊-algebras.

On the Order of Magnitude of the Divisor Function

Let D be an increasing sequence of positive integers, and consider the divisor functions： d（n, D） =∑d｜n,d∈D,d≤√n1, d2（n,D）=∑[d,δ]｜n,d,δ∈D,[d,δ]≤√n1, where [d,δ]=1.c.m.（d,δ）. A probabilistic argument is introduced to evaluate the series ∑n=1^∞and（n,D） and ∑n=1^∞and2（n,D）.     

Estimates for eigenvalues of Laplacian operator with any order

Let D be a bounded domain in an n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn. Assume that 0 ＜ λ1 ≤λ2 ≤ … ≤ λκ ≤ … are the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian operator with any order l{(-△)lu=λu, in D u=(δ)u/(δ)(→n)=…(δ)l-1u/(δ)(→n)l-1=0,on (δ)D.Then we obtain an upper bound of the (k 1)-th eigenvalue λκ 1 in terms of the first k eigenvalues.k∑i=1(λκ 1-λi) ≤ 1/n[4l(n 2l-2)]1/2{k∑i=1(λκ 1-λi)1/2λil-1/l k∑i=1(λκ 1-λi)1/2λ1/li}1/2.This ineguality is independent of the domain D. Furthermore, for any l ≥ 3 the above inequality is better than all the known results. Our rusults are the natural generalization of inequalities corresponding to the case l = 2 considered by Qing-Ming Cheng and Hong-Cang Yang. When l = 1, our inequalities imply a weaker form of Yang inequalities. We aslo reprove an implication claimed by Cheng and Yang.

Nonlinear Parabolic Equations with Singularities in Colombeau Vector Spaces

We consider nonlinear parabolic equations with nonlinear non-Lipschitz＇s term and singular initial data like Dirac measure, its derivatives and powers. We prove existence-uniqueness theorems in Colombeau vector space yC^1,W^2,2（[0,T）,R^n）,n ≤ 3. Due to high singularity in a case of parabolic equation with nonlinear conservative term we employ the regularized derivative for the conservative term, in order to obtain the global existence-uniqueness result in Colombeau vector space yC^1,L^2（[0,T）,R^n）,n≤ 3.

Uniform Convergence Rate of Estimators of Autocovariances in Partly Linear Regression Models with Correlated Errors

Consider the partly linear regression model ,where yi's are responses, xi = (xi1, xi2,…,xip)' and ti ∈T are known and nonrandom design points, T is a compact set in the real line is an unknown parameter vector, g(·) is an unknown function and {Ei} isa linear process, i.e., random variables with zeromean and variance o2e. Drawing upon B-spline estimation of g(·) and least squares estimation of 0, we construct estimators of the autocovariances of {Ei}- The uniform strong convergence rate of these estimators to their true values is then established. These results not only are a compensation for those of [23], but also have some application in modeling error structure. When the errors {Ei} are an ARMA process, our result can be used to develop a consistent procedure for determining the order of the ARMA process and identifying the non-zero coefficients of the process. Moreover, our result can be used to construct the asymptotically efficient estimators for parameters in the ARMA error process.

Subspace Arrangements of Type B n and D n

Let ${\mathcal{D}}_{n,k} $ be the family of linear subspaces of ?ⁿ given by all equations of the form $\varepsilon _1 x_{i_1 } = \varepsilon _2 x_{i_2 } = \cdot \cdot \cdot \varepsilon _k x_{i_k } ,$ for 1 ≤ < ? ? ? < i _k ≤ i and $\left( {\varepsilon _1 ,...,\varepsilon _k } \right)\varepsilon \left\{ { + 1, - 1} \right\}^k $ Also let ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h} $ be ${\mathcal{D}}_{n,k} $ enlarged by the subspaces $x_{j_1 } = x_{j_2 } = \cdot \cdot \cdot x_{j_h } = 0,$ for 1 ≤. The special cases ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,2,1} $ and ${\mathcal{D}}_{n,2} $ are well known as the reflection hyperplane arrangements corresponding to the Coxeter groups of type B _nand D _n respectively. In this paper we study combinatorial and topological properties of the intersection lattices of these subspace arrangements. Expressions for their Möbius functions and characteristic polynomials are derived. Lexicographic shellability is established in the case of ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h,} 1 \leqslant h < k$ , which allows computation of the homology of its intersection lattice and the cohomology groups of the manifold $\begin{gathered} {\mathcal{D}}_{n,2} \\ M_{n,k,h,} = {\mathbb{R}}^n \backslash \bigcup {{\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h,} } \\ \end{gathered} $ . For instance, it is shown that $H^d \left( {M_{n,k,k - 1} } \right)$ is torsion-free and is nonzero if and only if d = t(k ? 2) for some $t,0 \leqslant t \leqslant \left[ {{n \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {n k}} \right. \kern-0em} k}} \right]$ . Torsion-free cohomology follows also for the complement in ?ⁿof the complexification ${\mathcal{B}}_{n,k,h}^C ,1 \leqslant h < k$ .
