In this work, we give a characterization of Lipschitz operators on spaces of $C^2(M)$ functions (also $C^{1,1}$, $C^{1,\gamma}$, $C^1$, $C^\gamma$) that obey the global comparison property-- i.e. those that preserve the global ordering of…
For a finite dimensional unital complex simple Jordan superalgebra $J$, the Tits-Kantor-Koecher construction yields a 3-graded Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak g_\flat\cong \mathfrak g_\flat(-1)\oplus\mathfrak g_\flat(0)\oplus\mathfrak…
Trigonometric formulas are derived for certain families of associated Legendre functions of fractional degree and order, for use in approximation theory. These functions are algebraic, and when viewed as Gauss hypergeometric functions,…
The study of harmonic functions on a locally compact group $G$ has recently been transferred to a ``non-commutative'' setting in two different directions: C.-H. Chu and A. T.-M. Lau replaced the algebra $L^\infty(G)$ by the group von…
We provide two kinds of representations for the Taylor coefficients of the Weierstrass $\sigma$-function $\sigma(\cdot;\Gamma)$ associated to an arbitrary lattice $\Gamma$ in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}=\mathbb{R}^2$ - the first one in…
Emil Artin defined a zeta function for algebraic curves over finite fields and made a conjecture about them analogous to the famous Riemann hypothesis. This and other conjectures about these zeta functions would come to be called the Weil…
We deal with operators in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of the form $$\mathbf{A}=-{1\over \mathbf{b}(x)}\sum\limits_{k=1}^n\ds{\partial\over\partial x_k}(\mathbf{a}(x){\partial \over\partial x_k})$$ where $\mathbf{a}(x),\mathbf{b}(x)$ are positive,…
It is shown that the theory of real symmetric second-order elliptic operators in divergence form on $\Ri^d$ can be formulated in terms of a regular strongly local Dirichlet form irregardless of the order of degeneracy. The behaviour of the…
We introduce and give a more or less complete study of a family of branching-Toeplitz operators on the Hilbert space $\ell^2(T_q)$ indexed by a rooted homogeneous tree $T_q$ of degree $q\ge 2$. The finite dimensional analogues of such…
A function on a discrete group is weakly combable if its discrete derivative with respect to a combing can be calculated by a finite state automaton. A weakly combable function is bicombable if it is Lipschitz in both the left and right…
We consider a class of non-trivial perturbations ${\mathscr A}$ of the degenerate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in ${\mathbb R}^N$. In fact we perturb both the diffusion and the drift part of the operator (say $Q$ and $B$) allowing the…
Samit Dasgupta has proved a formula factoring a certain restriction of a 3-variable Rankin-Selberg $p$-adic $L$-function as a product of a 2-variable $p$-adic $L$-function related to the adjoint representation of a Hida family and a…
We consider a family of gradient Gaussian vector fields on $\Z^d$, where the covariance operator is not translation invariant. A uniform finite range decomposition of the corresponding covariance operators is proven, i.e., the covariance…
In this paper we continue investigation of the hypergeometric function ${}_4F_3(1)$ as the function of its seven parameters. We deduce several reduction formulas for this function under additional conditions that one of the top parameters…
First derivatives of the Whittaker function $\mathrm{M}_{\kappa ,\mu }\left(x\right) $ with respect to the parameters are calculated. Using the confluent hypergeometric function, these derivarives can be expressed as infinite sums of…
We introduce a gauge-theoretic integer lift of the Rohlin invariant of a smooth 4-manifold X with the homology of $S^1 \times S^3$. The invariant has two terms; one is a count of solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equations on X, and the other…
We study the Coh zeta function for a family of inert quadratic orders, which we conjecture to be given by $t$-deformed Bressoud $q$-series. This completes a trilogy connecting the zeta functions of ramified and split quadratic orders to the…
We construct a family of infinite-dimensional positive sub-coalgebras within the Grothendieck ring of Hecke algebras, when viewed as a Hopf algebra with respect to the induction and restriction functor. These sub-coalgebras have as…
Based on Spiridonov's analysis of elliptic generalizations of the Gauss hypergeometric function, we develop a common framework for 7-parameter families of generalized elliptic, hyperbolic and trigonometric univariate hypergeometric…
We investigate the $n$th root problem for bounded operators on a Hilbert space within the class of conditionally positive definite (CPD) operators determined by the L\'evy--Khintchine formula. The class contains subnormal operators,…
