Let f be a rotationally invariant function defined on the set Lin+ of all tensors with positive determinant on a vector space of arbitrary dimension. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the rank 1 convexity of f in terms of its representation through the singular values. For the global rank 1 convexity on Lin+, the result is a generalization of a two-dimensional result of Aubert. Generally, the inequality on contains products of singular values of the type encountered in the definition of polyconvexity, but is weaker. It is also shown that the rank 1 convexity is equivalent to a restricted ordinary convexity when f is expressed in terms of signed invariants of the deformation.

The authors consider the two-dimensional difference system$$ \Delta x_n = b_n g (y_n) $$ $$ \Delta y_n = -f(n, x_{n+1}) $$where $ n \in N(n_0) = \{ n_0, n_0+1, \ldots \} $, $ n_0 $ a nonnegative integer; $ \{ b_n \} $ is a real sequence, $ f: N(n_0) \times {\rm R} \to {\rm R} $ is continuous with $ u f(n,u) > 0 $ for all $ u \ne 0 $. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of nonoscillatory solutions with a specified asymptotic behavior are given. Also sufficient conditions for all solutions to be oscillatory are obtained if $ f $ is either strongly sublinear or strongly superlinear. Examples of their results are also inserted.

1. Introduction. Recently Kaplansky suggested the definition of a suitable Jordan analogue of B*-algebras, which we call J B*-algebras (see (10) and (11)). In this article, we give a characterization of those complex unital Banach Jordan algebras which are J B*-algebras in an equivalent norm. This is done by generalizing results of Bonsall ((3) and (4)) to give necessary and sufficient conditions on a real unital Banach Jordan algebra under which it is the self-adjoint part of a J B*-algebra in an equivalent norm. As a corollary we also obtain a characterization of the cones in a Banach Jordan algebra which are the set of positive elements of a J B*-algebra.

Abstract We discuss some convergence and divergence properties of twodimensional (Nörlund) logarithmic means of two-dimensional Walsh–Fourier series of functions both in the uniform and in the Lebesgue norm. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence regarding the modulus of continuity of the function, and also the function space.

The paper is devoted to the study of graded-simple modules and gradings on simple modules over finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras. In general, a connection between these two objects is given by the so-called loop construction. We review the main features of this construction as well as necessary and sufficient conditions under which finite-dimensional simple modules can be graded. Over the Lie algebra sl2(C), we consider specific gradings on simple modules of arbitrary dimension.

Level Of Analysis

Abstract At which level of analysis (descriptivist, empirical, epistemological), and along which perspective (sociological, linguistical, communicative), should we locate the distinctive criteria for the definition of translation? In other words, what are the necessary and sufficient conditions which constitute the object « translation,» exclusively this object and not any other object? This is the general question of this article. It will be developped in two steps. First, we shall try to demonstrate that the perspective adopted by translatology, in defining translation by its semantical and fonctional equivalence relation with a source text, is congenetically determined by the discursive exclusion of the theorisation of that which is the very condition of possibility of each translation: the disrupture and distancing by which humans structure their social relation. Consequently, it is by the critique of communication theory, where a large part of translatology has drawn its scientific foundations, that we can deliver sound arguments for the assessing of translation in the structure of social relations. A second step consists in the formulation of a working hypothesis: if translation may be caused by the social dialectics of distancing and negociation of meaning, it is not sufficiently specified by this logic. It could be hypothesized that translation finds its specificity in the hybridity of the linguistic referential relation it instaures with the mute universe to be conceptualized on the one hand, and with the source text to be reformulated on the other.

Degree Of Confirmation

The question of what constitutes fairness in betting quotients has been studied by Ramsey, deFinetti, and Shimony. Thanks to their combined efforts we now have a satisfactory definition of fairness.On the other hand, the explication of the concept of degree of confirmation (inductive probability) has progressed rapidly in recent years, thanks primarily to Carnap. This explication has usually proceeded by laying down the axioms for frequency-probabilities, and elaborating on these. While in the case where a frequency interpretation is intended these axioms are clearly justified, in our case they have been laid down without any justification. Carnap's presentation has been criticized for just this reason.The purpose of this paper is to show that the probability axioms are necessary and sufficient conditions to assure that the degrees of confirmation form a set of fair betting quotients. In addition it will be shown that one additional, highly controversial, axiom is precisely the condition needed to assure that not only deFinetti's weaker criterion but Shimony's criterion of fairness is also satisfied.

Necessary And Sufficient

In the architecture of cellular neural networks (CNN), connections among cells are built on linear coupling laws. These laws are characterized by the so-called templates which express the local interaction weights among cells. Recently, the complete stability for CNN has been extended from symmetric connections to cycle-symmetric connections. In this presentation, we investigate a class of two-dimensional space-invariant templates. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for the class of templates to have cycle-symmetric connections. Complete stability for CNN with several interesting templates is thus concluded.

We consider the two-dimensional autonomous systems of differential equations of the form where P(x,y) and Q(x,y) are analytic functions of order greater than or equal to 2. These systems have a focus at the origin if λ ≠ 0, and have either a centre or a weak focus if λ = 0. In this work we study the necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an isochronous critical point at the origin. Our result is, to the best of our knowledge, original when applied to weak foci and gives known results when applied to strong foci or to centres.
