We consider dynamic games in large population conditions where the agents evolve according to non-uniform dynamics and are weakly coupled via their dynamics and the individual costs. A state aggregation technique is developed to obtain a set of decentralized control laws for the individuals which possesses an ε-Nash equilibrium property. An attraction property of the mass behaviour is establish...

Motivated by a question of Vincent Lafforgue, we study the Banach spaces X satisfying the following property: there is a function ε → ∆ X (ε) tending to zero with ε > 0 such that every operator T : L 2 → L 2 with T ≤ ε that is simultaneously contractive (i.e. of norm ≤ 1) on L 1 and on L ∞ must be of norm ≤ ∆ X (ε) on L 2 (X). We show that ∆ X (ε) ∈ O(ε α) for some α > 0 iff X is isomorphic to ...

We present two characterizations of Lagrange interpolation sets for weak Chebyshev spaces. The rst of them is valid for an arbitrary weak Chebyshev space U and is based on an analysis of the structure of zero sets of functions in U extending Stockenberg's theorem. The second one holds for all weak Chebyshev spaces that possess a locally linearly independent basis. x1. Introduction Let U denote ...

Abstract This research apparatuses an approximate spectral method for the nonlinear time-fractional partial integro-differential equation with a weakly singular kernel (TFPIDE). The main idea of this approach is to set up new Hilbert space that satisfies initial and boundary conditions. collocation applied obtain precise numerical approximation using basis functions based on shifted first-kind ...

Abstract The shifted Chebyshev polynomials of the fifth kind (SCPFK) and collocation method are employed to achieve approximate solutions a category functional equations, namely variable-order time-fractional weakly singular partial integro-differential equations (VTFWSPIDEs). A pseudo-operational matrix (POM) approach is developed for numerical solution problem under study. suggested changes s...

In this paper we present a complete perturbation analysis for the Hamiltonian Schurform of a Hamiltonian matrix under similarity transformations with unitary symplectic matrices.Both linear asymptotic and non-linear perturbation bounds are presented. The same analysis isalso carried out for two less condensed block-Schur forms. It suggests that the block forms areless sensitive ...

A new method is presented for estimating the column space (signal subspace) of a low rank data matrix distorted by additive noise. It is based on a tangible expression for the set of all matrices of minimal rank that are ε-close to the data matrix in matrix 2-norm. The usual truncated SVD approximant is contained in this set. Features of the algorithm are (1) it has the same computational struc...

An infinite Markov system {f0, f1, . . . } of C2 functions on [a, b] has dense span in C[a, b] if and only if there is an unbounded Bernstein inequality on every subinterval of [a, b]. That is if and only if, for each [α, β] ⊂ [a, b] and γ > 0, we can find g ∈ span{f0, f1, . . . } with ‖g′‖[α,β] > γ‖g‖[a,b]. This is proved under the assumption (f1/f0)′ does not vanish on (a, b). Extension to hi...

V. D. Milman proved in [14] that the product of two strictly singular operators on L p [0, 1] (1 p < ∞) or on C[0, 1] is compact. In this note we utilize Schreier families S ξ in order to define the class of S ξ-strictly singular operators, and then we refine the technique of Milman to show that certain products of operators from this class are compact, under the assumption that the underlying ...

Let X be a rearrangement-invariant space. An operator T : X → X is called narrow if for each measurable setA and each ε > 0 there exists x ∈ X with x = χA, ∫ xdμ = 0 and ‖Tx‖ < ε. In particular all compact operators are narrow. We prove that if X is a Lorentz function space Lw,p on [0,1] with p > 2, then there exists a constant kX > 1 so that for every narrow projection P on Lw,p ‖Id− P‖ ≥ kX ....
