This chapter starts with definitions and basic properties of Measurable Functions. The Lebesgue Integral is systematically developed; first for Simple Functions, then for Nonnegative Functions, and finally for the General Case. Egorov's Theorem is proven. The important Lebesgue Limit Theorems that distinguish Lebesgue Integration from Riemann and Stieltjes Integration are discussed and proven.
The ongoing energy transition challenges the stability of the electrical power system. Stable operation of the electrical power grid requires both the voltage (amplitude) and the frequency to stay within operational bounds. While much research has focused on frequency dynamics and stability, the voltage dynamics has been neglected. Here, we study frequency and voltage stability in the case of simple networks via linear stability and bulk analysis. In particular, our linear stability analysis of the network shows that the frequency secondary control guarantees the stability of a particular electric network. Even more interesting, while we only consider secondary frequency control, we observe a stabilising effect on the voltage dynamics, especially in our numerical bulk analysis.
Summability Theory deals with the assignment a sum to a divergent series or a limit to a divergent sequence. The basics of Summability Theory are given in this chapter. Cesaro Summability is studied in some detail. It is an example of a Matrix Summability Method. The Silverman–Toeplitz Theorem, which characterizes Matrix Summability Methods that sum all convergent series, is proven. Also, the Abel Summability Method, which is not a Matrix Summability Method, is studied.
Outer, Inner, and Lebesgue Measure are defined and systematically studied; first for (n-dimensional) intervals, then for finite and countable union of intervals, then for open and closed sets, and finally for general Lebesgue Measurable sets in Euclidean Spaces. The Approximation Theorem and the Caratheodory Characterization of Measurability are proven. Borel sets are studied and examples are given of Nonmeasurable Sets, as well as Measurable Sets which are not Borel.
We characterize the generalized Auslander–Reiten duality on the category of finitely presented modules over some certain Hom-finite category. Examples include the category FI of finite sets with injections, and the one VI of finite-dimensional vector spaces with linear injections over a finite field.
Given a fixed graph H that embeds in a surface $\Sigma$, what is the maximum number of copies of H in an n-vertex graph G that embeds in $\Sigma$? We show that the answer is $\Theta(n^{f(H)})$, where f(H) is a graph invariant called the ‘flap-number’ of H, which is independent of $\Sigma$. This simultaneously answers two open problems posed by Eppstein ((1993) J. Graph Theory17(3) 409–416.). The same proof also answers the question for minor-closed classes. That is, if H is a $K_{3,t}$ minor-free graph, then the maximum number of copies of H in an n-vertex $K_{3,t}$ minor-free graph G is $\Theta(n^{f'(H)})$, where f′(H) is a graph invariant closely related to the flap-number of H. Finally, when H is a complete graph we give more precise answers.
Let $F$ be an infinite field of positive characteristic $p > 2$ and let $G$ be a group. In this paper, we study the graded identities satisfied by an associative algebra equipped with an elementary $G$-grading. Let $E$ be the infinite-dimensional Grassmann algebra. For every $a$, $b\in \mathbb {N}$, we provide a basis for the graded polynomial identities, up to graded monomial identities, for the verbally prime algebras $M_{a,b}(E)$, as well as their tensor products, with their elementary gradings. Moreover, we give an alternative proof of the fact that the tensor product $M_{a,b}(E)\otimes M_{r,s}(E)$ and $M_{ar+bs,as+br}(E)$ are $F$-algebras which are not PI equivalent. Actually, we prove that the $T_{G}$-ideal of the former algebra is contained in the $T$-ideal of the latter. Furthermore, the inclusion is proper. Recall that it is well known that these algebras satisfy the same multilinear identities and hence in characteristic 0 they are PI equivalent.
For $(X,\,L)$ a polarized toric variety and $G\subset \mathrm {Aut}(X,\,L)$ a torus, denote by $Y$ the GIT quotient $X/\!\!/G$. We define a family of fully faithful functors from the category of torus equivariant reflexive sheaves on $Y$ to the category of torus equivariant reflexive sheaves on $X$. We show, under a genericity assumption on $G$, that slope stability is preserved by these functors if and only if the pair $((X,\,L),\,G)$ satisfies a combinatorial criterion. As an application, when $(X,\,L)$ is a polarized toric orbifold of dimension $n$, we relate stable equivariant reflexive sheaves on certain $(n-1)$-dimensional weighted projective spaces to stable equivariant reflexive sheaves on $(X,\,L)$.
A thin Lie algebra is a Lie algebra $L$, graded over the positive integers, with its first homogeneous component $L_1$ of dimension two and generating $L$, and such that each non-zero ideal of $L$ lies between consecutive terms of its lower central series. All homogeneous components of a thin Lie algebra have dimension one or two, and the two-dimensional components are called diamonds. Suppose the second diamond of $L$ (that is, the next diamond past $L_1$) occurs in degree $k$. We prove that if $k>5$, then $[Lyy]=0$ for some non-zero element $y$ of $L_1$. In characteristic different from two this means $y$ is a sandwich element of $L$. We discuss the relevance of this fact in connection with an important theorem of Premet on sandwich elements in modular Lie algebras.
This paper aims to investigate the existence of periodic solutions for $p$-Laplacian differential equations with jumping nonlinearity under the frame of half-eigenvalue. Based on the continuity theorem, some new results are obtained, which enrich and generalize the previous results.
Functional analysis deals with infinite-dimensional spaces. Its results are among the greatest achievements of modern mathematics and it has wide-reaching applications to probability theory, statistics, economics, classical and quantum physics, chemistry, engineering, and pure mathematics. This book deals with measure theory and discrete aspects of functional analysis, including Fourier series, sequence spaces, matrix maps, and summability. Based on the author's extensive teaching experience, the text is accessible to advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students. It can be used as a basis for a one-term course or for a one-year sequence, and is suitable for self-study for readers with an undergraduate-level understanding of real analysis and linear algebra. More than 750 exercises are included to help the reader test their understanding. Key background material is summarized in the Preliminaries.
For each $k\geq 3$, we construct a $1$-parameter family of complete properly Alexandrov-embedded minimal surfaces in the Riemannian product space $\mathbb {H}^2\times \mathbb {R}$ with genus $1$ and k embedded ends asymptotic to vertical planes. We also obtain complete minimal surfaces with genus $1$ and $2k$ ends in the quotient of $\mathbb {H}^2\times \mathbb {R}$ by an arbitrary vertical translation. They all have dihedral symmetry with respect to k vertical planes, as well as finite total curvature $-4k\pi $. Finally, we provide examples of complete properly Alexandrov-embedded minimal surfaces with finite total curvature with genus $1$ in quotients of $\mathbb {H}^2\times \mathbb {R}$ by the action of a hyperbolic or parabolic translation.
In this article, we study a Gysin triangle in the category of motives with modulus (Theorem 1.2). We can understand this Gysin triangle as a motivic lift of the Gysin triangle of log-crystalline cohomology due to Nakkajima and Shiho. After that we compare motives with modulus and Voevodsky motives (Corollary 1.6). The corollary implies that an object in $\operatorname {\mathbf {MDM}^{\operatorname {eff}}}$ decomposes into a p-torsion part and a Voevodsky motive part. We can understand the corollary as a motivic analogue of the relationship between rigid cohomology and log-crystalline cohomology.
We show that if G is an amenable group and H is a hyperbolic group, then the free product $G\ast H$ is weakly amenable. A key ingredient in the proof is the fact that $G\ast H$ is orbit equivalent to $\mathbb{Z}\ast H$.
Given any topological group G, the topological classification of principal G-bundles over a finite CW-complex X is long known to be given by the set of free homotopy classes of maps from X to the corresponding classifying space BG. This classical result has been long-used to provide such classification in terms of explicit characteristic classes. However, even when X has dimension 2, there is a case in which such explicit classification has not been explicitly considered. This is the case where G is a Lie group, whose group of components acts nontrivially on its fundamental group $\pi_1G$. Here, we deal with this case and obtain the classification, in terms of characteristic classes, of principal G-bundles over a finite CW-complex of dimension 2, with G is a Lie group such that $\pi_0G$ is abelian.
The paper deals with the sets of numbers from [0,1] such that their binary representation is almost convergent. The aim of the study is to compute the Hausdorff dimensions of such sets. Previously, the results of this type were proved for a single summation method (e.g. Cesàro, Abel, Toeplitz). This study extends the results to a wide range of matrix summation methods.
We determine the asymptotics of the number of independent sets of size $\lfloor \beta 2^{d-1} \rfloor$ in the discrete hypercube $Q_d = \{0,1\}^d$ for any fixed $\beta \in (0,1)$ as $d \to \infty$, extending a result of Galvin for $\beta \in (1-1/\sqrt{2},1)$. Moreover, we prove a multivariate local central limit theorem for structural features of independent sets in $Q_d$ drawn according to the hard-core model at any fixed fugacity $\lambda>0$. In proving these results we develop several general tools for performing combinatorial enumeration using polymer models and the cluster expansion from statistical physics along with local central limit theorems.
