By combining classical techniques together with two novel asymptotic identities derived in recent work by Lenells and one of the authors, we analyse certain single sums of Riemann-zeta type. In addition, we analyse Euler-Zagier double exponential sums for particular values of Re{u} and Re{v} and for a variety of sets of summation, as well as particular cases of Mordell-Tornheim double sums.
Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ be a positive finite Borel measure on the unit circle and ${\mathcal{D}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D707})$ the associated harmonically weighted Dirichlet space. In this paper we show that for each closed subset $E$ of the unit circle with zero $c_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}}$-capacity, there exists a function $f\in {\mathcal{D}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D707})$ such that $f$ is cyclic (i.e., $\{pf:p\text{ is a polynomial}\}$ is dense in ${\mathcal{D}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D707})$), $f$ vanishes on $E$, and $f$ is uniformly continuous. Next, we provide a sufficient condition for a continuous function on the closed unit disk to be cyclic in ${\mathcal{D}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D707})$.
In this paper, we discuss the properties of the embedding operator $i_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}}^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}}:M_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}}^{\infty }{\hookrightarrow}L^{\infty }(\unicode[STIX]{x1D707})$, where $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ is a positive Borel measure on $[0,1]$ and $M_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}}^{\infty }$ is a Müntz space. In particular, we compute the essential norm of this embedding. As a consequence, we recover some results of the first author. We also study the compactness (resp. weak compactness) and compute the essential norm (resp. generalized essential norm) of the embedding $i_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{1},\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{2}}:L^{\infty }(\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{1}){\hookrightarrow}L^{\infty }(\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{2})$, where $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{1}$, $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{2}$ are two positive Borel measures on [0, 1] with $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{2}$ absolutely continuous with respect to $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{1}$.
Suppose that $D\subset \mathbb{C}$ is a simply connected subdomain containing the origin and $f(z_{1})$ is a normalized convex (resp., starlike) function on $D$. Let
where $p_{j}\geqslant 1$, $N=1+n_{1}+\cdots +n_{k}$, $w_{1}\in \mathbb{C}^{n_{1}},\ldots ,w_{k}\in \mathbb{C}^{n_{k}}$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}_{D}$ is the density of the hyperbolic metric on $D$. In this paper, we prove that
is a normalized convex (resp., starlike) mapping on $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}_{N}(D)$. If $D$ is the unit disk, then our result reduces to Gong and Liu via a new method. Moreover, we give a new operator for convex mapping construction on an unbounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^{2}$. Using a geometric approach, we prove that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6F7}_{N,1/p_{1},\ldots ,1/p_{k}}(f)$ is a spiral-like mapping of type $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ when $f$ is a spiral-like function of type $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ on the unit disk.
We find an explicit expression for the zeta-regularized determinant of (the Friedrichs extensions of) the Laplacians on a compact Riemann surface of genus one with conformal metric of curvature $1$ having a single conical singularity of angle $4\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}$.
We investigate several quantitative properties of entire and meromorphic solutions to some differential-difference equations and generalised delay differential-difference equations. Our results are sharp in a certain sense as illustrated by several examples.
Large-scale sublinearly Lipschitz maps have been introduced by Yves Cornulier in order to precisely state his theorems about asymptotic cones of Lie groups. In particular, Sublinearly bi-Lipschitz Equivalences (SBE) are a weak variant of quasi-isometries, with the only requirement of still inducing bi-Lipschitz maps at the level of asymptotic cones. We focus here on hyperbolic metric spaces and study properties of boundary extensions of SBEs, reminiscent of quasi-Möbius (or quasisymmetric) mappings. We give a dimensional invariant of the boundary that allows to distinguish hyperbolic symmetric spaces up to SBE, answering a question of Druţu.
In this paper, we study an interesting curve, the so-called Manhattan curve, associated with a pair of boundary-preserving Fuchsian representations of a (non-compact) surface; in particular, representations corresponding to Riemann surfaces with cusps. Using thermodynamic formalism (for countable state Markov shifts), we prove the analyticity of the Manhattan curve. Moreover, we derive several dynamical and geometric rigidity results, which generalize results of Burger [Intersection, the Manhattan curve, and Patterson–Sullivan theory in rank 2. Int. Math. Res. Not.1993(7) (1993), 217–225] and Sharp [The Manhattan curve and the correlation of length spectra on hyperbolic surfaces. Math. Z.228(4) (1998), 745–750] for convex cocompact Fuchsian representations.
In this paper we discuss the range of a co-analytic Toeplitz operator. These range spaces are closely related to de Branges–Rovnyak spaces (in some cases they are equal as sets). In order to understand its structure, we explore when the range space decomposes into the range of an associated analytic Toeplitz operator and an identifiable orthogonal complement. For certain cases, we compute this orthogonal complement in terms of the kernel of a certain Toeplitz operator on the Hardy space, where we focus on when this kernel is a model space (backward shift invariant subspace). In the spirit of Ahern–Clark, we also discuss the non-tangential boundary behavior in these range spaces. These results give us further insight into the description of the range of a co-analytic Toeplitz operator as well as its orthogonal decomposition. Our Ahern–Clark type results, which are stated in a general abstract setting, will also have applications to related sub-Hardy Hilbert spaces of analytic functions such as the de Branges–Rovnyak spaces and the harmonically weighted Dirichlet spaces.
Let $\{\mathbf{F}(n)\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ and $\{\mathbf{G}(n)\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be linear recurrence sequences. It is a well-known Diophantine problem to determine the finiteness of the set ${\mathcal{N}}$ of natural numbers such that their ratio $\mathbf{F}(n)/\mathbf{G}(n)$ is an integer. In this paper we study an analogue of such a divisibility problem in the complex situation. Namely, we are concerned with the divisibility problem (in the sense of complex entire functions) for two sequences $F(n)=a_{0}+a_{1}f_{1}^{n}+\cdots +a_{l}f_{l}^{n}$ and $G(n)=b_{0}+b_{1}g_{1}^{n}+\cdots +b_{m}g_{m}^{n}$, where the $f_{i}$ and $g_{j}$ are nonconstant entire functions and the $a_{i}$ and $b_{j}$ are non-zero constants except that $a_{0}$ can be zero. We will show that the set ${\mathcal{N}}$ of natural numbers such that $F(n)/G(n)$ is an entire function is finite under the assumption that $f_{1}^{i_{1}}\cdots f_{l}^{i_{l}}g_{1}^{j_{1}}\cdots g_{m}^{j_{m}}$ is not constant for any non-trivial index set $(i_{1},\ldots ,i_{l},j_{1},\ldots ,j_{m})\in \mathbb{Z}^{l+m}$.
Let $f$ be analytic in $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in \mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ and given by $f(z)=z+\sum _{n=2}^{\infty }a_{n}z^{n}$. We give sharp bounds for the initial coefficients of the Taylor expansion of such functions in the class of strongly Ozaki close-to-convex functions, and of the initial coefficients of the inverse function, together with some growth estimates.
We characterize all bounded Hankel operators $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$ such that $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}^{\ast }\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}$ has finite spectrum. We identify spectral data corresponding to such operators and construct inverse spectral theory including the characterization of these spectral data.
A new criterion for local invertibility of slice regular quaternionic functions is obtained. This paper is motivated by the need to find a geometrical interpretation for analytic conditions on the real Jacobian associated with a slice regular function f. The criterion involves spherical and Cullen derivatives of f and gives rise to several geometric implications, including an application to related conformality properties.
We prove two main results on Denjoy–Carleman classes: (1) a composite function theorem which asserts that a function $f(x)$ in a quasianalytic Denjoy–Carleman class ${\mathcal{Q}}_{M}$, which is formally composite with a generically submersive mapping $y=\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}(x)$ of class ${\mathcal{Q}}_{M}$, at a single given point in the source (or in the target) of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}$ can be written locally as $f=g\circ \unicode[STIX]{x1D711}$, where $g(y)$ belongs to a shifted Denjoy–Carleman class ${\mathcal{Q}}_{M^{(p)}}$; (2) a statement on a similar loss of regularity for functions definable in the $o$-minimal structure given by expansion of the real field by restricted functions of quasianalytic class ${\mathcal{Q}}_{M}$. Both results depend on an estimate for the regularity of a ${\mathcal{C}}^{\infty }$ solution $g$ of the equation $f=g\circ \unicode[STIX]{x1D711}$, with $f$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}$ as above. The composite function result depends also on a quasianalytic continuation theorem, which shows that the formal assumption at a given point in (1) propagates to a formal composition condition at every point in a neighbourhood.
The aim of this note is to give a simple topological proof of the well-knownresult concerning continuity of roots of polynomials. We also consider amore general case with polynomials of a higher degree approaching a givenpolynomial. We then examine the continuous dependence of solutions of lineardifferential equations with constant coefficients.
Let ${\mathcal{D}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}}$ be Dirichlet spaces with superharmonic weights induced by positive Borel measures $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ on the open unit disk. Denote by $M({\mathcal{D}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}})$ Möbius invariant function spaces generated by ${\mathcal{D}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}}$. In this paper, we investigate the relation among ${\mathcal{D}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}}$, $M({\mathcal{D}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}})$ and some Möbius invariant function spaces, such as the space $BMOA$ of analytic functions on the open unit disk with boundary values of bounded mean oscillation and the Dirichlet space. Applying the relation between $BMOA$ and $M({\mathcal{D}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}})$, under the assumption that the weight function $K$ is concave, we characterize the function $K$ such that ${\mathcal{Q}}_{K}=BMOA$. We also describe inner functions in $M({\mathcal{D}}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}})$ spaces.
The genus spectrum of a finite group G is the set of all g such that G acts faithfully on a compact Riemann surface of genus g. It is an open problem to find a general description of the genus spectrum of the groups in interesting classes, such as the Abelian p-groups. Motivated by earlier work of Talu for odd primes, we develop a general combinatorial method, for arbitrary primes, to obtain a structured description of the so-called reduced genus spectrum of Abelian p-groups, including the reduced minimum genus. In particular, we determine the complete genus spectrum for a large subclass, namely, those having ‘large’ defining invariants. With our method we construct infinitely many counterexamples to a conjecture of Talu, which states that an Abelian p-group is recoverable from its genus spectrum. Finally, we give a series of examples of our method, in the course of which we prove, for example, that almost all elementary Abelian p-groups are uniquely determined by their minimum genus, and that almost all Abelian p-groups of exponent p2 are uniquely determined by their minimum genus and Kulkarni invariant.
We show that the family of all holomorphic functions $f$ in a domain $D$ satisfying
$$\begin{eqnarray}\frac{|f^{(k)}|}{1+|f|}(z)\leq C\quad \text{for all }z\in D\end{eqnarray}$$
(where $k$ is a natural number and $C>0$) is quasi-normal. Furthermore, we give a general counterexample to show that for $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}>1$ and $k\geq 2$ the condition
$$\begin{eqnarray}\frac{|f^{(k)}|}{1+|f|^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}}(z)\leq C\quad \text{for all }z\in D\end{eqnarray}$$
