We obtain all extreme and exposed points of the closed unit ball of the space of bilinear forms $T:\ell_{\infty}^{2}\times\ell_{\infty}^{2}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}.$ We also show that any (norm one) bilinear form $T:\ell_{\infty…

We establish the monotonicity of the principal eigenvalue $\lambda_1(A)$, as a function of the advection amplitude $A$, for the elliptic operator $L_{A}=-\mathrm{div}(a(x)\nabla)+A\mathbf{V}\cdot\nabla +c(x)$ with incompressible flow…

We prove, among other results, that three standard measures of weak non-compactness coincide in preduals of JBW$^*$-triples. This result is new even for preduals of von Neumann algebras. We further provide a characterization of…

Given a reduced irreducible root system, the corresponding nil-DAHA is used to calculate the extremal coefficients of nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials, also called E-polynomails, in the limit t=infinity and for antidominant weights, which…

This article contains several results for \lambda-Robertson functions, i.e., analytic functions $f$ defined on the unit disk $D$ satisfying $f(0) = f'(0)-1=0$ and $Re e^{-i\lambda} {1+zf"(z)/f'(z)} > 0$ in $D$, where $\lambda \epsilon…

We discuss approximation of extremal functions by polynomials in the weighted Bergman spaces $A^p_\alpha$ where $-1 < \alpha < 0$ and $-1 < \alpha < p-2$. We obtain bounds on how close the approximation is to the true extremal function in…

Let $\mathfrak{A}$ and $\mathfrak{B}$ be JBW$^*$-algebras whose sets of unitaries are denoted by $\mathcal{U}(\mathfrak{A})$ and $\mathcal{U}(\mathfrak{B})$, respectively. We show that $\mathcal{U}(\mathfrak{A})$ is closed for Jordan…

In this paper we prove the existence of extremal functions for the Adams-Moser-Trudinger inequality on the Sobolev space $H^{m}(\Omega)$, where $\Omega$ is any bounded, smooth, open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{2m}$, $m\ge 1$. Moreover, we extend…

We consider a conformal invariant of braids, the extremal length with totally real horizontal boundary values $\lambda_{tr}$. The invariant descends to an invariant of elements of $\mathcal{B}_n\diagup\mathcal{Z}_n$, the braid group modulo…

In this paper we find extremal one-sided approximations of exponential type for a class of truncated and odd functions with a certain exponential subordination. These approximations optimize the $L^1(\mathbb{R}, |E(x)|^{-2}dx)$-error, where…

Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^4$ be a smooth bounded domain, $W_0^{2,2}(\Omega)$ be the usual Sobolev space. For any positive integer $\ell$, $\lambda_{\ell}(\Omega)$ is the $\ell$-th eigenvalue of the bi-Laplacian operator. Define…

In this paper we study transverse polarization of $\Lambda$ hyperons in single-inclusive leptonic annihilation. We show that when the transverse momentum of the $\Lambda$ baryon is measured with respect to the thrust axis, a transverse…

In this paper, we consider the finite element approximation for a parabolic problem on a smooth domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ with the inhomogeneous Neumann boundary condition. We emphasize that the domain can be non-convex in…

This paper is a revision and an enlargement of the previous version titled "Extreme points of the unit ball of a quasi-multiplier space" which had been circulated since 2004. We study extreme points of the unit ball of an operator space by…

We obtain the best approximation in $L^1(\R)$, by entire functions of exponential type, for a class of even functions that includes $e^{-\lambda|x|}$, where $\lambda >0$, $\log |x|$ and $|x|^{\alpha}$, where $-1 < \alpha < 1$. We also give…
