• Classification of idempotent states on the compact quantum groups Uq(2), SUq(2) and SOq(3) 

      [OWP-2009-08] Franz, Uwe; Skalski, Adam; Tomatsu, Reiji (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-02)
      We give a simple characterisation of those idempotent states on compact quantum groups which arise as Haar states on quantum subgroups, show that all idempotent states on quantum groups $U_q(2)$, $SU_q(2)$, and $SO_q(3) ...
    • Control of Volterra systems with scalar kernels 

      [OWP-2009-16] Haak, Bernhard Hermann; Jacob, Birgit (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-10)
      Volterra observations systems with scalar kernels are studied. New sufficient conditions for admissibility of observation operators are developed and some examples are discussed.
    • Definable orthogonality classes in accessible categories are small 

      [OWP-2011-14] Bagaria, Joan; Casacuberta, Carles; Mathias, Adrian R. D.; Rosický, Jiří (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2011-05-15)
      We lower substantially the strength of the assumptions needed for the validity of certain results in category theory and homotopy theory which were known to follow from Vopenka's principle. We prove that the necessary ...
    • Epsilon-hypercyclic operators 

      [OWP-2008-19] Badea, Catalin; Grivaux, Sophie; Müller, Valdimir (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-19)
      For each fixed number $\varepsilon$ in $(0, 1)$ we construct a bounded linear operator on the Banach space $\ell_1$ having a certain orbit which intersects every cone of aperture $\varepsilon$, but with every orbit avoiding ...
    • An introduction to heavy-tailed and sibexponential distributions 

      [OWP-2009-13] Foss, Sergey; Koršunov, Dmitrij; Zachary, Stan (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-07)
      This text studies heavy-tailed distributions in probability theory, and especially convolutions of such distributions. The mail goal is to provide a complete and comprehensive introduction to the theory of long-tailed ...
    • Noncommutative topological entropy of endomorphismus of Cuntz Algebras 

      [OWP-2008-12] Skalski, Adam; Zacharias, Joachim (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-16)
      Noncommutative topological entropy estimates are obtained for ‘finite range’ endomorphisms of Cuntz algebras,generalising known results for the canonical shift endomorphisms. Exact values are computed for a class of ...
    • On Siegel modular forms of level p and their properties mod p 

      [OWP-2009-23] Böcherer, Siegfried; Nagaoka, Shoyu (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-16)
      Using theta series we construct Siegel modular forms of level p which behave well modulo $p$ in all cusps. This construction allows us to show (under a mild condition) that all Siegel modular forms of level p and weight 2 ...
    • On the non-analyticity locus of an arc-analytic function 

      [OWP-2009-03] Kurdyka, Krzysztof; Parusinski, Adam (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-02-21)
      A function is called arc-analytic if it is real analytic on each real analytic arc. In real analytic geometry there are many examples of arc-analytic functions that are not real analytic. Arc analytic functions appear ...
    • Pointwise hyperbolicity implies uniform hyperbolicity 

      [OWP-2009-06] Hasselblatt, Boris; Pesin, Yakov B.; Schmeling, Jörg (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-02-23)
      We provide a general mechanism for obtaining uniform information from pointwise data. A sample result is that if a diffeomorphism of a compact Riemannian manifold has pointwise expanding and contracting continuous invariant ...
    • Preconditioning of Block Tridiagonal Matrices 

      [OWP-2008-05] Axelsson, Owe; Karatson, Janos (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-09)
      Preconditioning methods via approximate block factorization for block tridiagonal matrices are studied. Bounds for the resulting condition numbers are given, and two methods for the recursive construction of the approximate ...
    • Quantities that frequency-dependent selection maximizes 

      [OWP-2008-18] Matessi, Carlo; Schneider, Kristian (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-18)
      We consider a model of frequency-dependent selection, to which we refer as the Wildcard Model, that accommodates as particular cases a number of diverse models of biologically specific situations. Two very different ...
    • Stein's method for dependent random variables occuring in statistical mechanics 

      [OWP-2009-09] Eichelsbacher, Peter; Löwe, Matthias (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-03)
      We obtain rates of convergence in limit theorems of partial sums $S_n$ for certain sequences of dependent, identically distributed random variables, which arise naturally in statistical mechanics, in particular, in the ...
    • Stratifying modular representations of finite groups 

      [OWP-2008-20] Benson, David J.; Iyengar, Srikanth B.; Krause, Henning (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2008-03-20)
      We classify localising subcategories of the stable module category of a finite group that are closed under tensor product with simple (or, equivalently all) modules. One application is a proof of the telescope conjecture ...
