SynopsisLet K be the class of all operators T in a Banach space × which have the property that, for any pair of integers (n, k) with n ≧2 and l≦ k ≦ n – l, there exists a constant Cnk such thatfor all fϵdom Tn. If T ϵ K, then the best possible constant for the norm inequality (*) is the smallest non-negative value of the constant Cnk in (*). Any operator T which is the adjoint of a maximal symmetric operator in a Hilbert space belongs to the class K, as was shown by Ljubič [Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Ser. Mat. 24 (1960), 825–864].This article is concerned with the computation of the best possible constant for the differentiation operator Tf=if′ on the maximal domain in L2(0, ∞). Three algorithms, proposed by Ljubič [ibid.] and Kupcov [Trudy Mat. Inst. Steklov. 138 (1975)], are discussed and related to one another, asymptotic expressions (valid for large n) and numerical values of the best possible constant are presented, and the extremals (i.e. the elements / ∈ dom Tn for which equality holds in (*) with the best possible constant) are given.

AbstractIn this paper, we discuss an inverse problem for the Vlasov–Poisson system. We prove local uniqueness and stability theorems by using the method in Anikonov and Amirov [Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 272 (1983), 1292–1293] under the specular reflection boundary condition and with a prescribed outward electrical field at the boundary.

SynopsisLetHbe a Hilbert space in which a symmetric operatorSwith a dense domainDsis given and letShave a finite deficiency index (r, s). This paper contains a necessary and sufficient condition for validity of the following inequalities of Kolmogorov typeand a method for calculating the best possible constantsCn,m(S).Moreover, let φ be a symmetric bilinear functional with a dense domainDφsuch thatDs⊂Dφand φ(f, g) = (Sf, g) for allf∈Ds,g∈Dφ. A necessary and sufficient condition for validity of the inequalityas well as a method for calculating the best possible constantKare obtained. Then an analogous approach is worked out in order to obtain the best possible additive inequalities of the formThe paper is concluded by establishing the best possible constants in the inequalitieswhereTis an arbitrary dissipative operator. The theorems are extensions of the results of Ju. I. Ljubič, W. N. Everitt, and T. Kato.

The structure of bis((phenyl-O,N,N-azoxy)oxy)methane, C_{13}H_{12}N_4O_4, originally reported as triclinic, space group P1 [Zyuzin et al. (1997). Isz. Akad. Nauk SSSR Ser. Khim. pp. 1486–1492; CSD refcode NIXQAM] was recently revised to monoclinic, space group C2 [Marsh (1999). Acta Cryst. B55, 931–936]. It is properly described as orthorhombic, space group Fdd2.

This paper investigates the effect of a finite Reynolds number (FRN) on the flatness factor ($F$) of the velocity derivative in decaying homogeneous isotropic turbulence by applying the eddy damped quasi-normal Markovian (EDQNM) method to calculate all terms in an analytic expression for $F$ (Djenidi et al., Phys. Fluids, vol. 29 (5), 2017b, 051702). These terms and hence $F$ become constant when the Taylor microscale Reynolds number, $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}$ exceeds approximately $10^{4}$. For smaller values of $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}$, $F$, like the skewness $-S$, increases with $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}$; this behaviour is in quantitative agreement with experimental and direct numerical simulation data. These results indicate that one must first ensure that $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}$ is large enough for the FRN effect to be negligibly small before the hypotheses of Kolmogorov (Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR, vol. 30, 1941a, pp. 301–305; Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR, vol. 32, 1941b, pp. 16–18; J. Fluid Mech., vol. 13, 1962, pp. 82–85) can be assessed unambiguously. An obvious implication is that results from experiments and direct numerical simulations for which $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}$ is well below $10^{4}$ may not be immune from the FRN effect. Another implication is that a power-law increase of $F$ with respect to $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}$, as suggested by the Kolmogorov 1962 theory, is not tenable when $Re_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}$ is large enough.

In 1949 Ky Fan [1] proved the following result: Let λ1…λn be the eigenvalues of an Hermitian operator H on an n-dimensional vector space Vn. If x1, …, xq is an orthonormal set in V1, and q is a positive integer such n that 1 ≤ q ≤ n, then1

SynopsisWe give conditions on pairs of non-negative weight functions U and V which are sufficient that for 1<p≤<∞where Hλ is the Hankel transformation.The technique of proof is a variant of Muckenhoupt's recent proof for the boundedness of the Fourier transformation between weighted Lp spaces, and we can also use this variant to prove a somewhat different boundedness theorem for the Fourier transformation.
