Let (rI , r, ,...) be a sequence of non-negative integers summing to n. We determine under what conditions there exists a finite distributive lattice L of rank n with ri join-irreducibles of rank i, for all i = 1,2,.. . . When I. exists, we give explicit expressions for the greatest number of elements L can have of any given rank, and for the greatest total number of elements L can have. The pr...

We introduce and study the grid-based rank-structured tensor method for fast and accurate calculation of the lattice sums of Coulomb interactions on large 3D periodicstructured compounds. The approach is based on the low-rank canonical tensor representation of the Newton kernels discretized in a computational box using fine N×N×N 3D Cartesian grid. This reduces the 3D summation to a sequence of...

Let S be a finite set with some rank function r such that the Whitney numbers w i = I { x e S I r ( x ) = i}l are log-concave. Given k, me N so that Wk-1 < Wk <~ Wk+m, set W = w k + w k + 1 + "'" + Wk + ~" Generalizing a theorem of Kleitman and Milner, we prove that every F ~ S with cardinality IFI/> Whas average rank at least ( k w k + ... + (k + m)wk+m)/W, provided the normalized profile vect...

We prove that the L-function of any regular (distinct Hodge numbers), irreducible, rank two motive over the rational numbers has meromorphic continuation to the whole complex plane and satisfies the expected functional equation. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 11R39, 11F80, 11G40.

Let La be a Bergman space. We are interested in an intermediate Hankel operator H M φ from La to a closed subspace M of L 2 which is invariant under the multiplication by the coordinate function z. It is well known that there do not exist any nonzero finite rank big Hankel operators, but we are studying same types in case H φ is close to big Hankel operator. As a result, we give a necessary and...

Let E be an optimal elliptic curve over Q of conductor N having analytic rank one, i.e., such that the L-function LE(s) of E vanishes to order one at s = 1. Let K be a quadratic imaginary field in which all the primes dividing N split and such that the L-function of E over K vanishes to order one at s = 1. Suppose there is another optimal elliptic curve over Q of the same conductor N whose Mord...

The spherical tensor gradient operator Y l (∇), which is obtained by replacing the Cartesian components of r by the Cartesian components of ∇ in the regular solid harmonic Y l (r), is an irreducible spherical tensor of rank l. Accordingly, its application to a scalar function produces an irreducible spherical tensor of rank l. Thus, it is in principle sufficient to consider only multicenter int...

For any rank r oriented matroid M , a construction is given of a ”topological representation” of M by an arrangement of homotopy spheres in a simplicial complex which is homotopy equivalent to Sr−1. The construction is completely explicit and depends only on a choice of maximal flag in M . If M is orientable, then all Folkman-Lawrence representations of all orientations of M embed in this repre...

In this paper we present an explicit (rank one) function transform which contains several Jacobi-type function transforms and Hankel-type transforms as degenerate cases. The kernel of the transform, which is given explicitly in terms of basic hypergeometric series, thus generalizes the Jacobi function as well as the Bessel function. The kernel is named the Askey-Wilson function, since it provid...
