In [1] Chan and Williams considered a one-dimensional diffusion of the formwhere F is a strictly increasing continuous function with F(0) = 0 and ε is a decreasing deterministic function such that ε(0) is finite and ε(t) ↓ 0 as t↑ ∞, and gave necessary and sufficient conditions for Yt →0 a.s. as t→∞.

AbstractWe investigate mean convergence of Lagrange interpolation at the zeros of orthogonal polynomials pn(W2, x) for Erdös weights W2 = e-2Q. The archetypal example is Wk,α = exp(—Qk,α), whereα > 1, k ≥ 1, and is the k-th iterated exponential. Following is our main result: Let 1 < p < ∞, Δ ∊ ℝ, k > 0. Let Ln[f] denote the Lagrange interpolation polynomial to ƒ at the zeros of pn(W2, x) = pn(e-2Q, x). Then forto hold for every continuous function ƒ: ℝ —> ℝ satisfyingit is necessary and sufficient that

We generalize the concept of one-dimensional decimation invariant sequences, i.e. sequences which are invariant under a specific rescaling, to dimension N. After discussing the elementary properties of decimation-invariant sequences, we focus our interest on their periodicity. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of periodic decimation invariant sequences are presented.

SynopsisThis paper studies the equationwhere the differential operator Ln is defined byand a necessary and sufficient condition that all oscillatory solutions of the above equation converge to zero asymptotically is presented. The results obtained extend and improve previous ones of Kusano and Onose, and Singh, even in the usual case wherewhere N is an integer with l≦N≦n–1.

Let K be a subset of BV(0, 1)—the space of functions of bounded variation on the closed interval [0, 1]. By the Hausdorff moment problem for K we shall mean the determination of necessary and sufficient conditions that corresponding to a given sequence μ = {μn|n = 0, 1, 2, …} there should be a function α ∈ K so that(1)For various collections K this problem has been solved—see (3, Chapter III)By the trigonometric moment problem for K we shall mean the determination of necessary and sufficient conditions that corresponding to a sequence c = {cn|n = 0, ± 1, ± 2, …} there should be a function α ∈ K so that(2)For various collections K this problem has also been solved—see, for example (4, Chapter IV, § 4). It is noteworthy that these two problems have been solved for essentially the same collections K.

The problem of determining necessary and sufficient conditions bearing upon the numbers a2 and a3 in order that the polynomial z + a2z2 + a3z3 be univalent in the unit disk |z| < 1 was solved by Brannan ([3], [4]) and by Cowling and Royster [6], at about the same time. For his investigation Brannan used the following result due to Dieudonné [7] and the well-known Cohn rule [9].THEOREM A (Dieudonné criterion). The polynomial1is univalent in |z| < 1 if and only if for every Θ in [0, π/2] the associated polynomial2does not vanish in |z| < 1. For Θ = 0, (2) is to be interpreted as the derivative of (1).The procedure of Cowling and Royster was based on the observation that is univalent in |z| < 1 if and only if for all α such that 0 ≧ |α| ≧ 1, α ≠ 1 the functionis regular in the unit disk.
