• Endpoint bounds for quasiradial Fourier multipliers
• Authors: Jongchon Kim
Pages: 773 - 789
Abstract: We consider quasiradial Fourier multipliers, i.e., multipliers of the form $$m(a(\xi ))$$ for a class of distance functions a. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the multiplier transformations to be bounded on $$L^p$$ for a certain range of p. In addition, when m is compactly supported in $$(0,\infty )$$ , we give a similar result for associated maximal operators.

• Homogenization and concentrated capacity for the heat equation with two
kinds of microstructures: uniform cases
• Authors: Laura Gioia Andrea Keller
Pages: 791 - 818
Abstract: In the present article we investigate how geometric microstructures of a domain can affect the diffusion on the macroscopic level. More precisely, we look at a domain with additional microstructures of two kinds, the first one are periodically arranged “horizontal barriers” and the second one are “vertical barriers” which are not periodically arranged, but uniform on certain intervals. Both structures are parametrized in size by a small parameter $$\varepsilon$$ . Starting from such a geometry combined with a diffusion(-reaction) model, we derive the homogenized limit and discuss the differences of the resulting limit problems for various particular arrangements of the microstructures.

• Generalized adjoint forms on algebraic varieties
• Authors: Luca Rizzi; Francesco Zucconi
Pages: 819 - 836
Abstract: We prove a full generalization of the Castelnuovo’s free pencil trick. We show its analogies with Rizzi and Zucconi (Differential forms and quadrics of the canonical image. arXiv:1409.1826, Theorem 2.1.7); see also Pirola and Zucconi (J Algebraic Geom 12(3):535–572, Theorem 1.5.1). Moreover we find a new formulation of the Griffiths’s infinitesimal Torelli Theorem for smooth projective hypersurfaces using meromorphic 1-forms.

• Slice Fourier transform and convolutions
• Authors: Lander Cnudde; Hendrik De Bie
Pages: 837 - 862
Abstract: Recently the construction of various integral transforms for slice monogenic functions has gained a lot of attention. In line with these developments, the article at hand introduces the slice Fourier transform. In the first part, the kernel function of this integral transform is constructed using the Mehler formula. An explicit expression for the integral transform is obtained and allows for the study of its properties. In the second part, two kinds of corresponding convolutions are examined: Mustard convolutions and convolutions based on generalised translation operators. The paper finishes by demonstrating the connection between both.

• New developments on constant angle property in $${\mathbb {S}}^2\times {\mathbb {R}}$$ S 2 × R
• Authors: Ana Irina Nistor
Pages: 863 - 875
Abstract: In the present paper, we classify curves and surfaces in $${\mathbb {S}}^2\times \mathbb {R}$$ , which make constant angle with a rotational Killing vector field. We obtain the explicit parametrizations of such curves and surfaces, and we find examples in some particular cases. Finally, we give the complete classification of minimal constant angle surfaces in $${\mathbb {S}}^2\times \mathbb {R}$$ .

• Comparison principles for p -Laplace equations with lower order terms
• Authors: Tommaso Leonori; Alessio Porretta; Giuseppe Riey
Pages: 877 - 903
Abstract: We prove comparison principles for quasilinear elliptic equations whose simplest model is \begin{aligned} \lambda u -\Delta _p u + H(x,Du)=0 \quad x\in \Omega , \end{aligned} where $$\Delta _p u = \text { div }( Du ^{p-2} Du)$$ is the p-Laplace operator with $$p> 2$$ , $$\lambda \ge 0$$ , $$H(x,\xi ):\Omega \times \mathbb {R}^{N}\rightarrow \mathbb {R}$$ is a Carathéodory function and $$\Omega \subset \mathbb {R}^{N}$$ is a bounded domain, $$N\ge 2$$ . We collect several comparison results for weak sub- and super-solutions under different setting of assumptions and with possibly different methods. A strong comparison result is also proved for more regular solutions.

• Pseudospherical surfaces with singularities
• Authors: David Brander
Pages: 905 - 928
Abstract: We study a generalization of constant Gauss curvature $$-1$$ surfaces in Euclidean 3-space, based on Lorentzian harmonic maps, that we call pseudospherical frontals. We analyse the singularities of these surfaces, dividing them into those of characteristic and non-characteristic type. We give methods for constructing all non-degenerate singularities of both types, as well as many degenerate singularities. We also give a method for solving the singular geometric Cauchy problem: construct a pseudospherical frontal containing a given regular space curve as a non-degenerate singular curve. The solution is unique for most curves, but for some curves there are infinitely many solutions, and this is encoded in the curvature and torsion of the curve.

• Hankel determinants, Padé approximations, and irrationality exponents
• Authors: Yann Bugeaud; Jia-Yan Yao
Pages: 929 - 946
Abstract: The irrationality exponent of an irrational p-adic number $$\xi$$ , which measures the approximation rate of $$\xi$$ by rational numbers, is in general very difficult to compute explicitly. In this work, we shall show that the irrationality exponents of large classes of automatic p-adic numbers and Mahler p-adic numbers (which are transcendental) are exactly equal to 2. Our classes contain the Thue–Morse–Mahler p-adic numbers, the regular paperfolding p-adic numbers, the Stern p-adic numbers, among others.

• Spaces of Goldberg type on certain measured metric spaces
• Authors: Stefano Meda; Sara Volpi
Pages: 947 - 981
Abstract: In this paper, we define a space $${\mathfrak h}^1(M)$$ of Hardy–Goldberg type on a measured metric space satisfying some mild conditions. We prove that the dual of $${\mathfrak h}^1(M)$$ may be identified with $$\mathfrak {b}\mathfrak {m}\mathfrak {o}(M)$$ , a space of functions with “local” bounded mean oscillation, and that if p is in (1, 2), then $$L^p(M)$$ is a complex interpolation space between $${\mathfrak h}^1(M)$$ and $$L^2(M)$$ . This extends previous results of Strichartz, Carbonaro, Mauceri and Meda, and Taylor. Applications to singular integral operators on Riemannian manifolds are given.

• Authors: Xiaoxiang Jiao; Mingyan Li
Pages: 1001 - 1023
Abstract: In this paper, we investigate geometry of conformal minimal two-spheres immersed in $$G(2,n;\mathbb {R})$$ and give a classification theorem of linearly full conformal minimal immersions of constant curvature from $$S^2$$ to $$G(2,n;\mathbb {R})$$ , or equivalently, a complex hyperquadric $$Q_{n-2}$$ under some conditions.

• Real rank geometry of ternary forms
• Authors: Mateusz Michałek; Hyunsuk Moon; Bernd Sturmfels; Emanuele Ventura
Pages: 1025 - 1054
Abstract: We study real ternary forms whose real rank equals the generic complex rank, and we characterize the semialgebraic set of sums of powers representations with that rank. Complete results are obtained for quadrics and cubics. For quintics, we determine the real rank boundary: It is a hypersurface of degree 168. For quartics, sextics and septics, we identify some of the components of the real rank boundary. The real varieties of sums of powers are stratified by discriminants that are derived from hyperdeterminants.

• The adjacency matrix of a graph as a data table: a geometric perspective
• Authors: Giampiero Chiaselotti; Tommaso Gentile; Federico G. Infusino; Paolo A. Oliverio
Pages: 1073 - 1112
Abstract: In this paper we continue a research project concerning the study of a graph from the perspective of granular computation. To be more specific, we interpret the adjacency matrix of any simple undirected graph G in terms of data information table, which is one of the most studied structures in database theory. Granular computing (abbreviated GrC) is a well-developed research field in applied and theoretical information sciences; nevertheless, in this paper we address our efforts toward a purely mathematical development of the link between GrC and graph theory. From this perspective, the well-studied notion of indiscernibility relation in GrC becomes a symmetry relation with respect to a given vertex subset in graph theory; therefore, the investigation of this symmetry relation turns out to be the main object of study in this paper. In detail, we study a simple undirected graph G by assuming a generic vertex subset W as reference system with respect to which examine the symmetry of all vertex subsets of G. The change of perspective from G without reference system to the pair (G, W) is similar to what occurs in the transition from an affine space to a vector space. We interpret the symmetry blocks in the reference system (G, W) as particular equivalence classes of vertices in G, and we study the geometric properties of all reference systems (G, W), when W runs over all vertex subsets of G. We also introduce three hypergraph models and a vertex set partition lattice associated to G, by taking as general models of reference several classical notions of GrC. For all these constructions, we provide a geometric characterization and we determine their structure for basic graph families. Finally, we apply a wide part of our work to study the important case of the Petersen graph.

• On three-dimensional plasmon resonances in elastostatics
• Authors: Hongjie Li; Hongyu Liu
Pages: 1113 - 1135
Abstract: We consider plasmon resonances for the elastostatic system in $${\mathbb {R}}^3$$ associated with a very broad class of sources. The plasmonic device takes a general core–shell–matrix form with the metamaterial located in the shell. It is shown that the plasmonic device in the literature which induces resonance in $${\mathbb {R}}^2$$ does not induce resonance in $${\mathbb {R}}^3$$ . We then construct two novel plasmonic devices with suitable plasmon constants, varying according to the source term or the loss parameter, that can induce resonances. If there is no core, we show that resonance always occurs. If there is a core of an arbitrary shape, we show that the resonance strongly depends on the location of the source. In fact, there exists a critical radius such that resonance occurs for sources lying within the critical radius, whereas resonance does not occur for sources lying outside the critical radius. Our argument is based on the variational technique by making use of the primal and dual variational principles for the elastostatic system, along with a highly technical construction of the associated perfect plasmon elastic waves.

• Prolongation of Tanaka structures: an alternative approach
• Authors: Dmitri Alekseevsky; Liana David
Pages: 1137 - 1164
Abstract: The classical theory of prolongation of G-structures was generalized by N. Tanaka to a wide class of geometric structures (Tanaka structures), which are defined on a non-holonomic distribution. Examples of Tanaka structures include subriemannian, subconformal, CR-structures, structures associated with second-order differential equations, and structures defined by gradings of Lie algebras (in the framework of parabolic geometries). Tanaka’s prolongation procedure associates with a Tanaka structure of finite order a manifold with an absolute parallelism. It is a very fruitful method for the description of local invariants, investigation of the automorphism group, and equivalence problem. In this paper, we develop an alternative constructive approach for Tanaka’s prolongation procedure, based on the theory of quasi-gradations of filtered vector spaces, G-structures, and their torsion functions.

• Homogenization of an incompressible stationary flow of an
electrorheological fluid
• Authors: Miroslav Bulíček; Martin Kalousek; Petr Kaplický
Pages: 1185 - 1202
Abstract: We combine two-scale convergence, theory of monotone operators and results on approximation of Sobolev functions by Lipschitz functions to prove a homogenization process for an incompressible flow of a generalized Newtonian fluid. We avoid the necessity of testing the weak formulation of the initial and homogenized systems by corresponding weak solutions, which allows optimal assumptions on lower bound for a growth of the elliptic term. We show that the stress tensor for homogenized problem depends on the symmetric part of the velocity gradient involving the limit of a sequence selected from a family of solutions of initial problems.

• On derivations of subalgebras of real semisimple Lie algebras
• Authors: Paolo Ciatti; Michael G. Cowling
Abstract: Let $$\mathfrak {g}$$ be a real semisimple Lie algebra with Iwasawa decomposition $$\mathfrak {k} \oplus \mathfrak {a} \oplus \mathfrak {n}$$ . We show that, except for some explicit exceptional cases, every derivation of the nilpotent subalgebra $$\mathfrak {n}$$ that preserves its restricted root space decomposition is of the form $${\text {ad}}( W)$$ , where $$W \in \mathfrak {m}\oplus \mathfrak {a}$$ .

• Relations among Gauge and Pettis integrals for cwk ( X )-valued
multifunctions
• Authors: D. Candeloro; L. Di Piazza; K. Musiał; A. R. Sambucini
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to study relationships among “gauge integrals” (Henstock, McShane, Birkhoff) and Pettis integral of multifunctions whose values are weakly compact and convex subsets of a general Banach space, not necessarily separable. For this purpose, we prove the existence of variationally Henstock integrable selections for variationally Henstock integrable multifunctions. Using this and other known results concerning the existence of selections integrable in the same sense as the corresponding multifunctions, we obtain three decomposition theorems (Theorems 3.2, 4.2, 5.3). As applications of such decompositions, we deduce characterizations of Henstock (Theorem 3.3) and $$\mathcal H$$ (Theorem 4.3) integrable multifunctions, together with an extension of a well-known theorem of Fremlin [22, Theorem 8].

• Inequalities for eigenvalues of the buckling problem of arbitrary order
• Authors: Qing-Ming Cheng; Xuerong Qi; Qiaoling Wang; Changyu Xia
Abstract: This paper studies eigenvalues of the buckling problem of arbitrary order on bounded domains in Euclidean spaces and spheres. We prove universal bounds for the kth eigenvalue in terms of the lower ones independent of the domains. Our results strengthen the recent work in Jost et al. (Commun Partial Differ Equ 35:1563–1589, 2010) and generalize Cheng–Yang’s recent estimates (Cheng and Yang in Trans Am Math Soc 364:6139–6158, 2012) on the buckling eigenvalues of order two to arbitrary order.

• Homogenization of an evolution problem with $$L\log L$$ L log L data in a
domain with oscillating boundary
• Authors: Antonio Gaudiello; Olivier Guibé
Abstract: We consider a N-dimensional structure, $$N\in \mathbb {N}\setminus \{1\}$$ , with a very rough boundary. Precisely, in 3D the structure consists in a box with the upper side covered with $$\varepsilon$$ -periodically distributed asperities having fixed height and size depending on $$\varepsilon$$ . In this structure, we study the asymptotic behavior, as $$\varepsilon$$ vanishes, of an evolution Neumann problem with source term and initial data having $$L\log L$$ a priori estimates. We identify the limit problem.
