The present paper, which is a continuation of our earlier work in Annali di Mathematica [1] and Journal Math. Seminar [2] (EγEUθPIA), University of Athens, Greece, deals with the problem of determining sufficiency conditions for the nonvanishing of generalized polars (with a vanishing or nonvanishing weight) of the product of abstract homogeneous polynomials in the general case when the factor polynomials have been preassigned independent locations for their respective null-sets. Our main theorems here fully answer this general problem and include in them, as special cases, all the results on the topic known to date and established by Khan, Marden and Zaheer (see Pacific J. Math. 74 (1978), 2, pp. 535-557, and the papers cited above). Besides, one of the main theorems leads to an improved version of Marden's general theorem on critical points of rational functions of the formf1f2…fp/fp+1…fq,fibeing complex-valued polynomials of degreeni.

This chapter studies perturbations of polynomials and rational functions with several (possibly, not all) summable critical points. It proves that there exists an r-dimensional manifold Δ‎ in an appropriate space containing f (a polynomial or a rational function which has r summable critical points) such that for every smooth curve in Δ‎ through f, the ratio between parameter and dynamical derivatives along forward iterates of at least one of these summable points tends to a non-zero number. In doing so the chapter establishes a precise form of this relation for rational maps with one critical point satisfying the summability condition (certain expansion rate assumption along the critical orbit). This result brings to a natural general form many previously known special cases studied over the years.

We show that using Dunford-Taylor’s integral, a classical tool of functional analysis, it is possible to derive an expression for the inverse of a general non-singular complex-valued tridiagonal matrix. The special cases of Jacobi’s symmetric and Toeplitz (in particular symmetric Toeplitz) matrices are included. The proposed method does not require the knowledge of the matrix eigenvalues and relies only on the relevant invariants which are determined, in a computationally effective way, by means of a dedicated recursive procedure. The considered technique has been validated through several test cases with the aid of the computer algebra program Mathematica©.

The Swedish rent control system creates a white market for swapping rental contracts and a black market for selling rental contracts. Empirical data suggests that in this black-and-white market some people act according to utility functions that are both discontinuous and locally decreasing in money. We discuss Quinzii's theorem for the nonemptiness of the core of generalized house-swapping games, and show how it can be extended to cover the Swedish game. In a second part, we show how this theorem of Quinzii and her second theorem on nonemptiness of the core in two-sided models are both special cases of a more general theorem.

Combinatorics International audience We consider the family of rational functions ψw= ∏( xwi - xwi+1 )-1 indexed by words with no repetition. We study the combinatorics of the sums ΨP of the functions ψw when w describes the linear extensions of a given poset P. In particular, we point out the connexions between some transformations on posets and elementary operations on the fraction ΨP. We prove that the denominator of ΨP has a closed expression in terms of the Hasse diagram of P, and we compute its numerator in some special cases. We show that the computation of ΨP can be reduced to the case of bipartite posets. Finally, we compute the numerators associated to some special bipartite graphs as Schubert polynomials.

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.

In this paper we deal with dual integral equations with an arbitrary weight function and Hankel kernels of distinct and general order. We propose an operational procedure, which depends on exploiting the properties of the Mellin transforms, and readily reduces the dual equations to a single equation. This then can be inverted by the Hankel inversion to give us an equation of Fredholm type, involving the unknown function. Most of the known results are then derived as special cases of our general result.

In an earlier paper, which this note is intended to supplement and in some respects improve, the writer gave a general theorem of duality relating to isobaric determinants with elements Cr and Hr, the elementary and the complete homogeneous symmetric functions of a set of variables. The result was shewn to include as special cases the dual forms of “bi-alternant” symmetric functions given by Jacobi and Naegelsbach, as well as two equivalent forms of isobaric determinant used by MacMahon as a generating function in an important problem of permutations.

This paper investigates the general problem of stability of Bernstein—Greene— Kruskal type waves. By investigating perturbations perpendicular to the wave, we obtain a general sufficient condition for instability. This is then extended to the case of magnetized plasmas with a uniform magnetic field in the direction of the BGK wave. New perturbed modes, having no counterpart in linear theory, are also found. Various special cases are considered and previous, more particular results confirmed.

An interpolation problem of Nevanlinna–Pick type for complex-valued Schur functions in the open unit disk is considered. We prescribe the values of the function and its derivatives up to a certain order at finitely many points. Primarily, we study the case that there exist many Schur functions fulfilling the required conditions. For this situation, an application of the theory of orthogonal rational functions is used to characterize the set of all solutions of the problem in question. Moreover, we treat briefly the case of exactly one solution and present an explicit description of the unique solution in that case.
