For a large class of functions f, we consider the nonlinear biharmonic eigenvalue problem We describe the behaviour of the branch of solutions emanating from an eigenvalue of odd multiplicity below the essential spectrum of the linearized problem. The discussion is based on the degree theory for C2 proper Fredholm maps developed by Fitzpatrick, Pejsachowicz and Rabier.

The hyperbolic boundary value problemhas, for δ = 0 and each positive integer k, t-periodic solutions of period τk(ε) = 2Φ/(k2 + ε)½. For a reasonably large class of functions, f, and, for each k, certain values of ε, one at least of these solutions persists for small δ

Sears and Titchmarsh (1) have formulated an expansion in eigenfunctions which requires a knowledge of the s-zeros of the equationHere ka > 0 is supposed given and β is a real constant such that 0 ≤ β < π. The above equation is encountered when one seeks the eigenfunctions of the differential equationon the interval 0 < α ≤ r < ∞ subject to the condition of vanishing at r = α. Solutions of (2) are the Bessel functions J±is(kr) and every solution w of (2) is such that r−½w(r) belongs to L2 (α, ∞). Since the problem is of the limit circle type at infinity it is necessary to prescribe a suitable asymptotic condition there to make the eigenfunctions determinate. In the present instance this condition is

Differentiability Properties

SynopsisThe paper gives asymptotic estimates of the formas λ→∞ for the length l(μ)of a gap, centre μ in the essential spectrum associated with second-order singular differential operators. The integer r will be shown to depend on the differentiability properties of the coefficients in the operators and, in fact, r increases with the increasing differentiability of the coefficients. The results extend to all r ≧ – 2 the long-standing ones of Hartman and Putnam [10], who dealt with r = 0, 1, 2.

AbstractLet T and S be quasisimilar operators on a Banach space X. A well-known result of Herrero shows that each component of the essential spectrum of T meets the essential spectrum of S. Herrero used that, for an n-multicyclic operator, the components of the essential resolvent set with maximal negative index are simply connected. We give new and conceptually simpler proofs for both of Herrero's results based on the observation that on the essential resolvent set of T the section spaces of the sheavesare complete nuclear spaces that are topologically dual to each other. Other concrete applications of this result are given.

Let m: [ 0, ∞) → [ 0, ∞) be an increasing continuous function with m(t) = 0 if and only if t = 0, m(t) → ∞ as t → ∞ and Ω C ℝN a bounded domain. In this note we show that for every r > 0 there exists a function ur solving the minimization problemwhere Moreover, the function ur is a weak solution to the corresponding Euler–Lagrange equationfor some λ > 0. We emphasize that no Δ2-condition is needed for M or M; so the associated functionals are not continuously differentiable, in general.

SynopsisLet τ denote the second-order elliptic expressionwhere the coefficients bj and q are complex-valued, and let Ω be a spherical shell Ω = {x:x ∈ ℝn, l <|x|<m} with l≧0, m≦∞. Under the conditions assumed on the coefficients of τ and with either Dirichlet or Neumann conditions on the boundary of Ω, τ generates a quasi-m-sectorial operator T in the weighted space L2(Ω;w). The main objective is to locate the spectrum and essential spectrum of T. Best possible results are obtained.

AbstractFor a bounded, open set${\Omega\hskip-0.569055pt\subseteq\hskip-0.569055pt\mathbb{R}^{n}}$we consider the partial regularity of vectorial minimizers${u\hskip-0.853583pt:\hskip-0.853583pt\Omega\hskip-0.853583pt\rightarrow\hskip-% 0.853583pt\mathbb{R}^{N}}$of the functional$u\mapsto\int_{\Omega}f(x,u,Du)\,dx,$where${f:\Omega\times\mathbb{R}^{N}\times\mathbb{R}^{N\times n}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}}$. The principal assumption we make is thatfis asymptotically related to a function of the form${(x,u,\xi)\mapsto a(x,u)F(\xi)}$, whereFpossessesp-Uhlenbeck structure and the partial maps${x\mapsto a(x,\cdot\,)}$and${u\mapsto a(\,\cdot\,,u)}$are, respectively, of class VMO and${\mathcal{C}^{0}}$. We demonstrate that any minimizer${u\in W^{1,p}(\Omega)}$of this functional is Hölder continuous on an open set${\Omega_{0}}$of full measure. Finally, we show by means of an example that our asymptotic relatedness condition is very general and permits a large class of functions.

Given a polynomially bounded multisequence {fm}, where m = (m1, …, mk) ∈ ℤk, we will consider 2k power series in exp(iz1), …, exp(izk), each representing a holomorphic function within its domain of convergence. We will consider this same multisequence as a linear functional on a class of functions defined on the k-dimensional torus by a Fourier series, , with the proper convergence criteria. We shall discuss the relationships that exist between the linear functional properties of the multisequence and the analytic continuation of the holomorphic functions. With this approach we show that a necessary and sufficient condition that the multisequence be given by a polynomial is that each of the power series represents, up to a unit factor, the same function that is entire in the variables

Weighted Partition

AbstractLet pw(n) be the weighted partition function defined by the generating function , where w(m) is a non-negative arithmetic function. Let be the summatory functions for pw(n) and w(n), respectively. Generalizing results of G. A. Freiman and E. E. Kohlbecker, we show that, for a large class of functions Φ(u) and λ(u), an estimate for Pw(u) of the formlog Pw(u) = Φ(u){1 + Ou(1/λ(u))} (u→∞) implies an estimate forNw(u) of the formNw(u) = Φ*(u){1+O(1/ log ƛ(u))} (u→∞) with a suitable function Φ*(u) defined in terms of Φ(u). We apply this result and related results to obtain characterizations of the Riemann Hypothesis and the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis in terms of the asymptotic behavior of certain weighted partition functions.
