Shape preserving approximation in vector ordered spaces

AbstractThe aim of this note is to extend some classical results on the shape preserving approximation of real functions (of real variables) to functions with values in ordered vector spaces

Geometric and approximation properties of some singular integrals in the unit disk

The purpose of this paper is to prove several results in approximation by complex Picard, Poisson-Cauchy, and Gauss-Weierstrass singular integrals with Jackson-type rate, having the quality of preservation of some properties in geometric function theory, like the preservation of coefficients' bounds, positive real part, bounded turn, starlikeness, and convexity. Also, some sufficient conditions for starlikeness and univalence of analytic functions are preserved.</p

E. R. LOVE TYPE LEFT FRACTIONAL INTEGRAL INEQUALITIES

Here first we derive a general reverse Minkowski integral inequality. Then motivated by the work of E. R. Love [4] on integral inequalities we produce general reverse and direct integral inequalities. We apply these to ordinary and left fractional integral inequalities. The last involve ordinary derivatives, left RiemannLiouville fractional integrals, left Caputo fractional derivatives, and left generalized fractional derivatives. These inequalities are of Opial type

Opial type L

This paper presents a class of Lp-type Opial inequalities for generalized fractional derivatives for integrable functions based on the results obtained earlier by the first author for continuous functions (1998). The novelty of our approach is the use of the index law for fractional derivatives in lieu of Taylor's formula, which enables us to relax restrictions on the orders of fractional derivatives

Exact soliton solutions, shape changing collisions and partially coherent solitons in coupled nonlinear Schroedinger equations

We present the exact bright one-soliton and two-soliton solutions of the integrable three coupled nonlinear Schroedinger equations (3-CNLS) by using the Hirota method, and then obtain them for the general $N$-coupled nonlinear Schroedinger equations (N-CNLS). It is pointed out that the underlying solitons undergo inelastic (shape changing) collisions due to intensity redistribution among the modes. We also analyse the various possibilities and conditions for such collisions to occur. Further, we report the significant fact that the various partial coherent solitons (PCS) discussed in the literature are special cases of the higher order bright soliton solutions of the N-CNLS equations.Comment: 4 pages, RevTex, 1 EPS figure To appear in Physical Review Letter

Fractional Operators, Dirichlet Averages, and Splines

Fractional differential and integral operators, Dirichlet averages, and splines of complex order are three seemingly distinct mathematical subject areas addressing different questions and employing different methodologies. It is the purpose of this paper to show that there are deep and interesting relationships between these three areas. First a brief introduction to fractional differential and integral operators defined on Lizorkin spaces is presented and some of their main properties exhibited. This particular approach has the advantage that several definitions of fractional derivatives and integrals coincide. We then introduce Dirichlet averages and extend their definition to an infinite-dimensional setting that is needed to exhibit the relationships to splines of complex order. Finally, we focus on splines of complex order and, in particular, on cardinal B-splines of complex order. The fundamental connections to fractional derivatives and integrals as well as Dirichlet averages are presented
