AbstractBy making use of Merle's general shooting method we investigate Dirac equations of the formHere it is possible that F(0) = −∞ and that F(s) defined on (0,+∞) is not monotonously nondecreasing. Our results cover some known ones as a special case.

We consider the nonlinear Dirac equationThe potential function V satisfies the conditions that the essential spectrum of the Dirac operator is and this Dirac operator has infinitely many eigenvalues in (−1, 1) accumulating at 1. This potential function V may change sign in ℝ3 and contains the classical Coulomb potential V (x) = −γ/|x| with γ > 0 as a special case. The nonlinearity F satisfies the resonance-type condition lim. Under some additional conditions on V and F, we prove that this equation has infinitely many solutions.

One of the main goals in the theory of forcing iteration is to formulate preservation theorems for not collapsing ω1 which are as general as possible. This line leads from c.c.c. forcings using finite support iterations to Axiom A forcings and proper forcings using countable support iterations to semi-proper forcings using revised countable support iterations, and more recently, in work of Shelah, to yet more general classes of posets. In this paper we concentrate on a special case of the very general iteration theorem of Shelah from [5, chapter XV]. The class of posets handled by this theorem includes all semi-proper posets and also includes, among others, Namba forcing.In [5, chapter XV] Shelah shows that, roughly, revised countable support forcing iterations in which the constituent posets are either semi-proper or Namba forcing or P[W] (the forcing for collapsing a stationary co-stationary subset ofwith countable conditions) do not collapse ℵ1. The iteration must contain sufficiently many cardinal collapses, for example, Levy collapses. The most easily quotable combinatorial application is the consistency (relative to a Mahlo cardinal) of ZFC + CH fails + whenever A ∪ B = ω2 then one of A or B contains an uncountable sequentially closed subset. The iteration Shelah uses to construct this model is built using P[W] to “attack” potential counterexamples, Levy collapses to ensure that the cardinals collapsed by the various P[W]'s are sufficiently well separated, and Cohen forcings to ensure the failure of CH in the final model.In this paper we give details of the iteration theorem, but we do not address the combinatorial applications such as the one quoted above.These theorems from [5, chapter XV] are closely related to earlier work of Shelah [5, chapter XI], which dealt with iterated Namba and P[W] without allowing arbitrary semi-proper forcings to be included in the iteration. By allowing the inclusion of semi-proper forcings, [5, chapter XV] generalizes the conjunction of [5, Theorem XI.3.6] with [5, Conclusion XI.6.7].

The boundary value problemis studied with a view to obtaining the existence of positive solutions in C1([0, 1])∩C2((0, 1)). The function f is assumed to be singular in the second variable, with the singularity modeled after the special case f(x, y) = a(x)y−p, p>0.This boundary value problem arises in the search of positive radially symmetric solutions towhere Ω is the open unit ball in ℝN, centered at the origin, Γ is its boundary and |x| is the Euclidean norm of x.

Let observations (X 1, X 2, …, Xn ) be obtained from a time series {Xt } such that where the ɛt are independently and identically distributed random variables each having mean zero and finite variance, and the gu (θ) are specified functions of a vector-valued parameter θ. This paper presents a rigorous derivation of the asymptotic distributions of the estimators of A, B, ω and θ obtained by an approximate least-squares method due to Whittle (1952). It is a sequel to a previous paper (Walker (1971)) in which a similar derivation was given for the special case of independent residuals where gu (θ) = 0 for u > 0, the parameter θ thus being absent.

We consider the Dirac equation given by with initial condition y1 (0) cos α + y2(0) sin α = 0, α ε [0; π ) and suppose the equation is in the limit-point case at infinity. Using to denote the derivative of the corresponding spectral function, a formula for is given when is known and positive for three distinct values of α. In general, if is known and positive for only two distinct values of α, then is shown to be one of two possibilities. However, in special cases of the Dirac equation, can be uniquely determined given for only two values of α.

1. If f is a real-valued function possessing a Taylor series convergent in (a — R, a + R), then it satisfies the following operational identity1.1in which D2 = d2/du2. Furthermore, when g is a solution of y″ + λ2y = 0 in (a – R, a + R), then g is such a function and (1.1) specializes to1.2In this note we generalize these results to the real Euclidean space EN, our conclusions being Theorems 1 and 2 below. Clearly, (1.2) is a special case of (1.1) but in higher-dimensional space it is of interest to allow g, now a solution of1.3to possess singularities at isolated points away from the origin. It is then necessary to consider not only a neighbourhood of the origin but annular regions also.

If f(z) is regular in |z| < 1, the expressionis called the characteristic of f(z). This is the notation of Nevanlinna (4) for the special case of regular functions; in this note it will not be necessary to discuss meromorphic functions. If m(r,f) is bounded for 0 < r < 1, then f(z) is called quasi-bounded in |z| < 1. In particular, every bounded function is quasibounded. The class Q of quasi-bounded functions is important because, for instance, a “Fatou theorem” holds for such functions (4, p. 134).

In this note the best uniform approximation on [—1,1] to the function |x| by symmetric complex valued linear fractional transformations is determined. This is a special case of the more general problem studied in [1]. Namely, for any even, real valued function f(x) on [-1,1] satsifying 0 = f ( 0 ) ≤ f (x) ≤ f (1) = 1, determine the degree of symmetric approximationand the extremal transformations U whenever they exist.

The main purpose of this note is to prove a special case of the following conjecture.Conjecture. If F is holomorphic on the unit ball Bn in Cn and has positive real part, then F is in Hp(Bn) for 0 < p < ½(n + 1).Here Hp(Bn) (0 < p < ∞) denote the usual Hardy spaces of holomorphic functions on Bn. See below for definitions. We remark that the conjecture is known for 0 < p < 1 and that some evidence for it already exists in the literature; for example [1, Theorems 3.11 and 3.15] where it is shown that a particular extreme element of the convex cone of functionsis in Hp(B2) for 0 < p < 3/2.

The Jacobi polynomials may be defined bywhere (a)n = a (a + 1) … (a + n — 1). Putting β = α gives the ultraspherical polynomials which have as a special case the Legendre polynomials .
