The structure on invariant measures of <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> generic diffeomorphisms

Let Λ be an isolated non-trivial transitive set of a C 1 generic diffeomorphism f ∈ Diff (M ). We show that the space of invariant measures supported on Λ coincides with the space of accumulation measures of time averages on one orbit. Moreover, the set of points having this property is residual in Λ (which implies that the set of irregular+ points is also residual in Λ). As an application, we show that the non-uniform hyperbolicity of irregular+ points in Λ with totally 0 measure (resp., the non-uniform hyperbolicity of a generic subset in Λ) determines the uniform hyperbolicity of Λ.     

The Cauchy Boundary Value Problems on Closed Piecewise Smooth Manifolds in <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

Suppose that D is a bounded domain with a piecewise C^1 smooth boundary in C^n. Let ψ∈C^1 α(δD). By using the Hadamard principal value of the higher order singular integral and solid angle coefficient method of points on the boundary, we give the Plemelj formula of the higher order singular integral with the Boehner-Martinelli kernel, which has integral density ψ. Moreover, by means of the Plemelj formula and methods of complex partial differential equations, we discuss the corresponding Cauehy boundary value problem with the Boehner-Martinelli kernel on a closed piecewise smooth manifold and obtain its unique branch complex harmonic solution.

Normal forms for singularities of pedal curves produced by non-singular dual curve germs in <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis></Superscript>

For an n-dimensional spherical unit speed curve r and a given point P, we can define naturally the pedal curve of r relative to the pedal point P. When the dual curve germs are non-singular, singularity types of such pedal curves depend only on locations of pedal points. In this paper, we give a complete list of normal forms for singularities and locations of pedal points when the dual curve germs are non-singular. As an application of our list, we characterize C ^∞ left equivalence classes of pedal curve germs (I, s ₀) → S ⁿ produced by non-singular dual curve germ from the viewpoint of the relation between tangent space and tangent space.

Robustly transitive actions of ℝ<Superscript>2</Superscript> on compact three manifolds

In this paper, we define robust transitivity for actions of ℝ² on closed connected orientable manifolds. We prove that if the ambient manifold is three dimensional and the dense orbit of a robustly transitive action is not planar, then the action is defined by an Anosov flow, i.e. its orbits coincide with the orbits of an Anosov flow.     

New examples of Cantor sets in <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> that are not <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>-minimal

Although every Cantor subset of the circle (S¹) is the minimal set of some homeomorphism of S¹, not every such set is minimal for a C¹ diffeomorphism of S¹. In this work, we construct new examples of Cantor sets in S¹ that are not minimal for any C¹-diffeomorphim of S¹.     

Two-dimensional quotients of C<Superscript>n</Superscript> are isomorphic to C<Superscript>2</Superscript>/Γ

We will prove that any two-dimensional quotient of an affine space modulo a reductive algebraic group is isomorphic to a quotient of C² modulo a finite group. The proof uses some new results due to Koras and Russell on contractible surfaces with at most quotient singularities and also several results about reductive group actions on affine varieties.     

S<Superscript>1</Superscript>-Valued Sobolev maps

We describe the structure of the space W^s,p( \mathbbSⁿ;\mathbbS¹ ) {W^{s,p}}\left( {{\mathbb{S}^n};{\mathbb{S}^1}} \right) , where 0 < s < ∞ and 1 ≤ p < ∞. According to the values of s, p, and n, maps in W^s,p( \mathbbSⁿ;\mathbbS¹ ) {W^{s,p}}\left( {{\mathbb{S}^n};{\mathbb{S}^1}} \right) can either be characterised by their phases or by a couple (singular set, phase).     

Regular interval Cantor sets of <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> and minimality

It is known that not every Cantor set of S ¹ is C ¹-minimal. In this work we prove that every member of a subfamily of what we here call regular interval Cantor set is not C ¹-minimal. We also prove that no member of a class of Cantor sets that includes this subfamily is C ^1+∈-minimal, for any ∈ > 0. Partially supported by CNPq-Brasil and PEDECIBA-Uruguay.     

Free <Emphasis Type="Bold">C</Emphasis><Subscript>+</Subscript>-actions on <Emphasis Type="Bold">C</Emphasis><Superscript>3</Superscript> are translations

Let X be a smooth contractible three-dimensional affine algebraic variety with a free algebraic C₊-action on it such that S=X//C₊ is smooth. We prove that X is isomorphic to S×C and the action is induced by a translation on the second factor. As a consequence we show that any free algebraic C₊-action on C³ is a translation in a suitable coordinate system.     

Atomic hardy-type spaces between <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript> on metric spaces with non-doubling measures

Let ( Y,d,dl )\left( {\mathcal{Y},d,d\lambda } \right) be (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, μ), where |·| is the Euclidean distance, μ is a nonnegative Radon measure on ℝ ⁿ satisfying the polynomial growth condition, or the Gauss measure metric space (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, d _λ ), or the space (S, d, ρ), where S ≡ ℝ ⁿ ⋉ ℝ⁺ is the (ax + b)-group, d is the left-invariant Riemannian metric and ρ is the right Haar measure on S with exponential growth. In this paper, the authors introduce and establish some properties of the atomic Hardy-type spaces { X_s ( Y ) }_{0 < s \leqslant ￥}\left\{ {X_s \left( \mathcal{Y} \right)} \right\}_{0 < s \leqslant \infty } and the BMO-type spaces { BMO( Y, s ) }_{0 < s \leqslant ￥}\left\{ {BMO\left( {\mathcal{Y}, s} \right)} \right\}_{0 < s \leqslant \infty }. Let H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) be the known atomic Hardy space and L ₀¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) the subspace of f ∈ L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) with integral 0. The authors prove that the dual space of X _s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) is BMO( Y,s )BMO\left( {\mathcal{Y},s} \right) when s ∈ (0,∞), X _s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) = H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) when s ∈ (0, 1], and X _∞ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) = L ₀¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) (or L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right)). As applications, the authors show that if T is a linear operator bounded from H ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) and from L ¹ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to L ^1,∞ ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right), then for all r ∈ (1,∞) and s ∈ (r,∞], T is bounded from X _r ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right) to the Lorentz space L ^1,s ( Y )\left( \mathcal{Y} \right), which applies to the Calderón-Zygmund operator on (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, μ), the imaginary powers of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator on (ℝ ⁿ , |·|, d _γ ) and the spectral operator associated with the spectral multiplier on (S, d, ρ). All these results generalize the corresponding results of Sweezy, Abu-Shammala and Torchinsky on Euclidean spaces.     

The geometric complexity of special Lagrangian <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis><Superscript>2</Superscript>-cones

We prove a number of results on the geometric complexity of special Lagrangian (SLG) T²-cones in ³. Every SLG T²-cone has a fundamental integer invariant, its spectral curve genus. We prove that the spectral curve genus of an SLG T²-cone gives a lower bound for its geometric complexity, i.e. the area, the stability index and the Legendrian index of any SLG T²-cone are all bounded below by explicit linearly growing functions of the spectral curve genus. We prove that the cone on the Clifford torus (which has spectral curve genus zero) in S⁵ is the unique SLG T²-cone with the smallest possible Legendrian index and hence that it is the unique stable SLG T²-cone. This leads to a classification of all rigid index 1 SLG cone types in dimension three. For cones with spectral curve genus two we give refined lower bounds for the area, the Legendrian index and the stability index. One consequence of these bounds is that there exist S¹-invariant SLG torus cones of arbitrarily large area, Legendrian and stability indices. We explain some consequences of our results for the programme (due to Joyce) to understand the most common three-dimensional isolated singularities of generic families of SLG submanifolds in almost Calabi-Yau manifolds.

An atomic decomposition is proved for Banach spaces which satisfy some affine geometric axioms compatible with notions from the quantum mechanical measuring process. This is then applied to yield, under appropriate assumptions, geometric characterizations, up to isometry, of the unit ball of the dual space of a JB^*-triple, and up to complete isometry, of one-sided ideals in C^*-algebras.Mathematics Subject Classification (2000):17C65, 46L07Both authors are supported by NSF grant DMS-0101153     

Cyclic Functions in <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis></Superscript>(<Emphasis Type="Bold">R</Emphasis>), 1 \le <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> < \infty

Functions whose translates span L ^p (R) are called L ^p-cyclic functions. For a fixed p \memb [1, \infty], we construct Schwartz-class functions which are L ^r -cyclic for r > p and not L ^r - cyclic for r \le p. We then construct Schwartz-class functions which are L ^r -cyclic for r \ge p and not L ^r -cyclic for r < p. The constructions differ for p \memb (1, 2) and p > 2.

Laminar currents in ℙ<Superscript>2</Superscript>

 In this paper we study laminar currents in ℙ². Given a sequence of irreducible algebraic curves (C _n ) converging in the sense of currents to T, we find geometric conditions on the curves ensuring that the limit current T is laminar. This criterion is then applied to meromorphic dynamical systems in ℙ², and laminarity of the dynamical ``Green' current is obtained for a wide class of meromorphic self maps of ℙ², as well as for all bimeromorphic maps of projective surfaces.

Time-dependent diffusion operators on <Emphasis Type="Italic">L</Emphasis><Superscript>1</Superscript>

We study the Cauchy problem for time-dependent diffusion operators with singular coefficients on L¹-spaces induced by infinitesimal invariant measures. We give sufficient conditions on the coefficients such that the Cauchy-Problem is well-posed. We construct associated diffusion processes with the help of the theory of generalized Dirichlet forms. We apply our results in particular to construct a large class of Nelson-diffusions that could not been constructed before.
