Abslraci --It is shown that a large class of real-coefficient doubly-complementary IIR transfer function pairs can be implemented by means of a single complex allpass filter. For a real input sequence, the real part of the output sequence corresponds to the output of one of the transfer functions G(z) (foi example, lowpass), whereas the imaginary part of the output sequence corresponds to its “...

Each finite p-perfect group G (p a prime) has a universal central p-extension coming from the p part of its Schur multiplier. Serre gave a StiefelWhitney class approach to analyzing spin covers of alternating groups (p = 2) aimed at geometric covering space problems that included their regular realization for the Inverse Galois Problem. A special case of a general result is that any finite simp...

We investigate Fourier multipliers on the compact dual of arbitrary discrete groups. Our main result is a Hörmander-Mihlin multiplier theorem for finite-dimensional cocycles with optimal smoothness condition. We also find Littlewood-Paley type inequalities in group von Neumann algebras, prove Lp estimates for noncommutative Riesz transforms and characterize L∞ → BMO boundedness for radial Fouri...

intimately connected with duality theory (the notation is that of [1]). In both cases the middle algebra is the closure of L(G) in the dual of the first algebra and also the predual of the third algebra (at least when G is amenable in the second case). Furthermore, the third algebra is closely connected with the multiplier algebra of the first algebra. For abelian groups, compact or discrete, V...

We show that the category A(G) of actions of a locally compact group G on C∗-algebras (with equivariant nondegenerate ∗-homomorphisms into multiplier algebras) is equivalent, via a full-crossed-product functor, to a comma category of maximal coactions of G under the comultiplication (C∗(G), δG); and also that A(G) is equivalent, via a reduced-crossed-product functor, to a comma category of norm...

In [7], [1], [2], local decay estimates were proven for the (decoupled) Schrödinger, wave, and Regge-Wheeler equations on the Schwarzschild manifold, using commutator methods. Here, we correct a step in the commutator argument. The corrected argument works either for radial semilinear equations or general linear equations. This recovers the results in [7] and [2], but does not recover the non r...
