This chapter turns to a special class of Gelfland pairs, here called “nilpotent Gelfland pairs” for simplicity's sake and denoted by (N, K). It considers implications derived from, in principle, whenever we have a finite family of homogeneous, self-adjoint, commuting, left-invariant differential operators on a homogenous nilpotent Lie group N. A natural situation to consider is the one where the given operators are characterized by the property of being invariant under the action of a given compact group K of automorphisms of N. The general strategy of proof here is based on a bootstrapping argument, whose steps are determined by the level of complexity of the pairs involved, where the “complexity” depends on the structure of N and the way K acts on two layers of the Lie algebra.

Sugar is one of the most important elements in human nutrition. The Common Market Organisation for sugar has been a subject of considerable debate since its establishment in 1968. The European agricultural market has been criticized for its heavy regulations and subsidization. The sugar market is one of the most regulated ones; however, this will change radically in 2017 when the current system of production quotas will end. The current EU sugar market changed is structure during the last several decades. The significant number of companies left the market and EU internal sugar market became more concentrated. The aim of this paper is presentation characteristics of sugar market with respect to the supposed market failure – reduction in competition. The analysis also identifies the main drivers and determinants of the EU especially quota sugar market. In relation to paper’s aim the following results are important. The present conditions of the European sugar market have led to market failure when nearly 75 % (10 million tonnes) of the quota is controlled by five multinational companies only. These multinational alliances (especially German and French one) are also taking control over the production capacities of their subsidiaries. In most countries, this causes serious problems as the given quota is controlled by one or two producers only. This is a significant indicator of market imperfection. The quota system cannot overcome the problem of production quotas on the one hand and the demand on the other; furthermore, it also leads to economic inefficiency. The current EU sugar market is under the control of only Sudzucker, Nordzucker, Pfeifer and Langen, Tereos and ABF.

The problem of the optimal driving technique during the fuel economy competition is reconsidered. The vehicle is regarded as a particle moving on a trace with a variable slope angle. The fuel consumption is minimized as the vehicle covers the given distance in a given time. It is assumed that the run consists of two recurrent phases: acceleration with a full available engine power and coasting down with the engine turned off. The most fuel-efficient technique for shifting gears during acceleration is found. The decision variables are: the vehicle velocities at which the gears should be shifted, on the one hand, and the vehicle velocities when the engine should be turned on and off, on the other hand. For the data of students’ vehicle representing the Faculty of Power and Aeronautical Engineering it has been found that such driving strategy is more effective in comparison with a constant speed strategy with the engine partly throttled, as well as a strategy resulting from optimal control theory when the engine is still active.

AbstractAfter the celebrated work of L. Hörmander on the one-parameter pseudo-differential operators, the applications of pseudo-differential operators have played an important role in partial differential equations, geometric analysis, harmonic analysis, theory of several complex variables and other branches of modern analysis. For instance, they are used to construct parametrices and establish the regularity of solutions to PDEs such as the {\overline{\partial}} problem. The study of Fourier multipliers, pseudo-differential operators and Fourier integral operators has stimulated further such applications. It is well known that the one-parameter pseudo-differential operators are {L^{p}({\mathbb{R}^{n}})} bounded for {1<p<\infty}, but only bounded on local Hardy spaces {h^{p}({\mathbb{R}^{n}})} introduced by Goldberg in [D. Goldberg, A local version of real Hardy spaces, Duke Math. J. 46 1979, 1, 27–42] for {0<p\leq 1}. Though much work has been done on the {L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n_{1}}\times\mathbb{R}^{n_{2}})} boundedness for {1<p<\infty} and Hardy {H^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n_{1}}\times\mathbb{R}^{n_{2}})} boundedness for {0<p\leq 1} for multi-parameter Fourier multipliers and singular integral operators, not much has been done yet for the boundedness of multi-parameter pseudo-differential operators in the range of {0<p\leq 1}. The main purpose of this paper is to establish the boundedness of multi-parameter pseudo-differential operators on multi-parameter local Hardy spaces {h^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n_{1}}\times\mathbb{R}^{n_{2}})} for {0<p\leq 1} recently introduced by Ding, Lu and Zhu in [W. Ding, G. Lu and Y. Zhu, Multi-parameter local Hardy spaces, Nonlinear Anal. 184 2019, 352–380].

Let G be a connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie group, H and K be connected subgroups of G. We show in this paper that the action of K on X = G/H is proper if and only if the triple (G,H,K) has the compact intersection property in both cases where G is at most three-step and where G is special, extending then earlier cases. The result is also proved for exponential homogeneous space on which acts a maximal subgroup.
