Abstract First we compute the trace space of Besov spaces – characterized via atomic decompositions – on fractals Γ, for parameters 0 < p < ∞, 0 < q ≤ min(1, p) and s = (n – d)/p. New Besov spaces on fractals are defined via traces for 0 < p, q ≤ ∞, s ≥ (n – d)/p and some embedding assertions are established. We conclude by studying the compactness of the trace operator TrΓ by giving sharp estimates for entropy and approximation numbers of compact embeddings between Besov spaces. Our results on Besov spaces remain valid considering the classical spaces defined via differences. The trace results are used to study traces in Triebel–Lizorkin spaces as well.

AbstractWe consider the problem of metastability for stochastic dynamics with exponentially small transition probabilities in the low temperature limit. We generalize previous model-independent results in several directions. First, we give an estimate of the mixing time of the dynamics in terms of the maximal stability level. Second, assuming the dynamics is reversible, we give an estimate of the associated spectral gap. Third, we give precise asymptotics for the expected transition time from any metastable state to the stable state using potential-theoretic techniques. We do this in a general reversible setting where two or more metastable states are allowed and some of them may even be degenerate. This generalizes previous results that hold for a series of only two metastable states. We then focus on a specific Probabilistic Cellular Automata (PCA) with configuration space $${\mathcal {X}}=\{-1,+1\}^\varLambda $$ X = { - 1 , + 1 } Λ where $$\varLambda \subset {\mathbb {Z}}^2$$ Λ ⊂ Z 2 is a finite box with periodic boundary conditions. We apply our model-independent results to find sharp estimates for the expected transition time from any metastable state in $$\{\underline{-1}, {\underline{c}}^o,{\underline{c}}^e\}$$ { - 1 ̲ , c ̲ o , c ̲ e } to the stable state $$\underline{+1}$$ + 1 ̲ . Here $${\underline{c}}^o,{\underline{c}}^e$$ c ̲ o , c ̲ e denote the odd and the even chessboard respectively. To do this, we identify rigorously the metastable states by giving explicit upper bounds on the stability level of every other configuration. We rely on these estimates to prove a recurrence property of the dynamics, which is a cornerstone of the pathwise approach to metastability.

Suppose D (υ) is the Dirichlet integral of a function υ defined on the unit disc U in the complex plane. It is well known that if υ is a harmonic function in U with D (υ) < ∞, then for each p, 0 < p < ∞, |υ|p has a harmonic majorant in U.We define the “iterated” Dirichlet integral Dn (υ) for a function υ on the polydisc Un of Cn and prove the polydisc version of the well known fact above:If υ is an n-harmonic function in Un with Dn (υ) < ∞, then for each p, 0 < p < ∞, |υ|p has an n-harmonic majorant in Un.

Riesz Decomposition Method

AbstractIn this paper, by using an augmented Riesz decomposition method, we obtain sharp estimates of harmonic functions with certain boundary integral condition, which provide explicit lower bounds of functions harmonic in a cone. The results given here can be used as tools in the study of integral equations.
