We consider an integral transform given by $T_{\nu} f(s) := \pi \int_0^\infty rs J_{\nu}(r s)^2 f(r) \, dr$, where $J_{\nu}$ denotes the Bessel function of the first kind of order $\nu$. As shown by Walther (2002,…

In this paper we study the existence and uniqueness of a solution and propose an iterative method for solving a beam problem which is described by the fully fourth order equation $$u^{(4)}(x)=f(x,u(x),u'(x),u'''(x),u'''(x)), \quad 0 < x <…

A new model for the finite one-dimensional harmonic oscillator is proposed based upon the algebra u(2)_{\alpha}. This algebra is a deformation of the Lie algebra u(2) extended by a parity operator, with deformation parameter {\alpha}. A…

The unitarity of the NS supersymmetric coset SL(2,R)/U(1) is studied for the discrete representations. The results are applied to the proof of the no-ghost theorem for fermionic strings in AdS(3) x N in the NS sector. A no-ghost theorem is…

Let $\bx_j = \btheta +\bep_j, j=1,...,n$, be observations of an unknown parameter $\btheta$ in a Euclidean or separable Hilbert space $\scrH$, where $\bep_j$ are noises as random elements in $\scrH$ from a general distribution. We study the…

A Gelfand-Tsetlin function is a real-valued function $\phi:C \to \mathbb{R}$ defined on a finite subset $C$ of the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with the property that $\phi(x) \leq \phi(y)$ for every edge $\langle x,y \rangle$ directed north or…

Let D be a domain in the quaternionic space H. We prove a differential criterion that characterizes Fueter-regular quaternionic functions f:bD -> H of class C^1. We find differential operators T and N, with complex coefficients, such that a…

For n > 2, the Dehn functions of Aut(F_n) and Out(F_n) are exponential. Hatcher and Vogtmann proved that they are at most exponential, and the complementary lower bound in the case n=3 was established by Bridson and Vogtmann. Handel and…

We prove a generalization of van der Corput's Difference Theorem in the theory of uniform distribution by establishing a connection with unitary operators that have Lebesgue spectrum. This allows us to show, for example, that if $(x_n)_{n =…
