Alternative iterative methods for nonexpansive mappings, rates of convergence and applications
[OWP-2009-19] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009)Alternative iterative methods for a nonexpansive mapping in a Banach space are proposed and proved to be convergent to a common solution to a fixed point problem and a variational inequality. We give rates of asymptotic ... -
Approximation of discrete functions and size of spectrum
[OWP-2009-17] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-11)Let $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}$ be a uniformly discrete sequence and $S \subset \mathbb{R}$ a compact set. We prove that if there exists a bounded sequence of functions in Paley-Wiener space $PW_s$, which approximates ... -
Classification of idempotent states on the compact quantum groups Uq(2), SUq(2) and SOq(3)
[OWP-2009-08] (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) ... -
The contact polytope of the leech lattice
[OWP-2009-18] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-12)The contact polytope of a lattice is the convex hull of its shortest vectors. In this paper we classify the facets of the contact polytope of the Leech lattice up to symmetry. There are 1, 197, 362, 269, 604, 214, 277, 200 ... -
Control of Volterra systems with scalar kernels
[OWP-2009-16] (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. -
Discrete non-commutative integrability: the proof of a conjecture by M. Kontsevich
[OWP-2009-24] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-17)We prove a conjecture of Kontsevich regarding the solutions of rank two recursion relations for non-commutative variables which, in the commutative case, reduce to rank two cluster algebras of affine type. The conjecture ... -
Geometric quantization of integrable systems with hyperbolic singularities
[OWP-2009-01] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009)We construct the geometric quantization of a compact surface using a singular real polarization coming from an integrable system. Such a polarization always has singularities, which we assume to be of nondegenerate type. ... -
Heisenberg-Weyl algebra revisited: combinatorics of words and paths
[OWP-2009-02] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009)The Heisenberg–Weyl algebra, which underlies virtually all physical representations of Quantum Theory, is considered from the combinatorial point of view. We provide a concrete model of the algebra in terms of paths on a ... -
Homological properties of piecewise hereditary algebras
[OWP-2009-11] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-05)Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$. We will investigate homological properties of piecewise hereditary algebras $\Lambda$. In particular we give lower and upper bounds of ... -
An introduction to heavy-tailed and sibexponential distributions
[OWP-2009-13] (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 ... -
Minimal Riesz energy on the sphere for axis-supported external fields
[OWP-2009-04] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009)Abstract. We investigate the minimal Riesz $s$-energy problem for positive measures on the d-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$ in the presence of an external field induced by a point charge, and more generally by ... -
A new counting function for the zeros of holomorphic curves
[OWP-2009-25] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-18)Let $f_1,..., f_p$ be entire functions that do not all vanish at any point, so that $(f_1,..., f_p)$ is a holomorphic curve in $\mathbb{CP}^{p-1}$. We introduce a new and more careful notion of counting the order of the ... -
On Siegel modular forms of level p and their properties mod p
[OWP-2009-23] (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 distribution of a second class particle in the asymmetric simple exclusion process
[OWP-2009-22] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-15)We give an exact expression for the distribution of the position $X(t)$ of a single second class particle in the asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) where initially the second class particle is located at the origin ... -
On the geometry of the space of fibrations
[OWP-2009-15] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-09)We study geometrical aspects of the space of fibrations between two given manifolds $M$ and $B$, from the point of view of Fréchet geometry. As a first result, we show that any connected component of this space is the ... -
On the non-analyticity locus of an arc-analytic function
[OWP-2009-03] (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 ... -
Optimal bounds for the colored Tverberg Problem
[OWP-2009-27] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-20)We prove a "Tverberg type" multiple intersection theorem. It strengthens the prime case of the original Tverberg theorem from 1966, as well as the topological Tverberg theorem of Bárány et al. (1980), by adding color ... -
Pointwise hyperbolicity implies uniform hyperbolicity
[OWP-2009-06] (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 ... -
Positivity of the T-system cluster algebra
[OWP-2009-21] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009-03-14)We give the path model solution for the cluster algebra variables of the $A_r$ T-system with generic boundary conditions. The solutions are partition functions of (strongly) non-intersecting paths on weighted graphs. The ... -
Proof mining in metric fixed point theory and ergodic theory
[OWP-2009-05] (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2009)In this survey we present some recent applications of proof mining to the fixed point theory of (asymptotically) nonexpansive mappings and to the metastability (in the sense of Terence Tao) of ergodic averages in uniformly ...
