A hypercyclic finite rank perturbation of a unitary operator
A unitary operator and a rank operator acting on a Hilbert space
\H are constructed such that is hypercyclic. This answers affirmatively
a question of Salas whether a finite rank perturbation of a hyponormal operator
can be supercyclic.Comment: published in Mathematische Annale
Monotone graph limits and quasimonotone graphs
The recent theory of graph limits gives a powerful framework for
understanding the properties of suitable (convergent) sequences of
graphs in terms of a limiting object which may be represented by a symmetric
function on , i.e., a kernel or graphon. In this context it is
natural to wish to relate specific properties of the sequence to specific
properties of the kernel. Here we show that the kernel is monotone (i.e.,
increasing in both variables) if and only if the sequence satisfies a
`quasi-monotonicity' property defined by a certain functional tending to zero.
As a tool we prove an inequality relating the cut and norms of kernels of
the form with and monotone that may be of interest in its
own right; no such inequality holds for general kernels.Comment: 38 page
The Highly Oscillatory Behavior of Automorphic Distributions for SL(2)
Automorphic distributions for SL(2) arise as boundary values of modular forms
and, in a more subtle manner, from Maass forms. In the case of modular forms of
weight one or of Maass forms, the automorphic distributions have continuous
first antiderivatives. We recall earlier results of one of us on the Holder
continuity of these continuous functions and relate them to results of other
authors; this involves a generalization of classical theorems on Fourier series
by S. Bernstein and Hardy-Littlewood. We then show that the antiderivatives are
non-differentiable at all irrational points, as well as all, or in certain
cases, some rational points. We include graphs of several of these functions,
which clearly display a high degree of oscillation. Our investigations are
motivated in part by properties of "Riemann's nondifferentiable function", also
known as "Weierstrass' function".Comment: 27 pages, 6 Figures; version 2 corrects misprints and updates

Breathers on lattices with long range interaction
We analyze the properties of breathers (time periodic spatially localized
solutions) on chains in the presence of algebraically decaying interactions
. We find that the spatial decay of a breather shows a crossover from
exponential (short distances) to algebraic (large distances) decay. We
calculate the crossover distance as a function of and the energy of the
breather. Next we show that the results on energy thresholds obtained for short
range interactions remain valid for and that for (anomalous
dispersion at the band edge) nonzero thresholds occur for cases where the short
range interaction system would yield zero threshold values.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, PRB Rapid Comm. October 199
Lebesgue regularity for differential difference equations with fractional damping
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence and unique-ness of solutions belonging to the vector-valued space of sequences �(Z, X) forequations that can be modeled in the formΔu(n)+Δu(n)=Au(n)+G(u)(n)+ (n), n ∈ Z,,>0,≥0,where X is a Banach space, ∈ �(Z, X), A is a closed linear operatorwith domain D(A) defined on X,andG is a nonlinear function. The oper-ator Δdenotes the fractional difference operator of order >0inthesense of Grünwald-Letnikov. Our class of models includes the discrete timeKlein-Gordon, telegraph, and Basset equations, among other differential differ-ence equations of interest. We prove a simple criterion that shows the existenceof solutions assuming that f is small and that G is a nonlinear term
Formulation of the uncertainty relations in terms of the Renyi entropies
Quantum mechanical uncertainty relations for position and momentum are
expressed in the form of inequalities involving the Renyi entropies. The proof
of these inequalities requires the use of the exact expression for the
(p,q)-norm of the Fourier transformation derived by Babenko and Beckner.
Analogous uncertainty relations are derived for angle and angular momentum and
also for a pair of complementary observables in N-level systems. All these
uncertainty relations become more attractive when expressed in terms of the
symmetrized Renyi entropies

Estimates in Beurling--Helson type theorems. Multidimensional case
We consider the spaces of functions on the
-dimensional torus such that the sequence of the Fourier
coefficients belongs to
. The norm on is defined by
. We study the rate of
growth of the norms as
for -smooth real
functions on (the one-dimensional case was investigated
by the author earlier). The lower estimates that we obtain have direct
analogues for the spaces
Entropic uncertainty relations for extremal unravelings of super-operators
A way to pose the entropic uncertainty principle for trace-preserving
super-operators is presented. It is based on the notion of extremal unraveling
of a super-operator. For given input state, different effects of each
unraveling result in some probability distribution at the output. As it is
shown, all Tsallis' entropies of positive order as well as some of Renyi's
entropies of this distribution are minimized by the same unraveling of a
super-operator. Entropic relations between a state ensemble and the generated
density matrix are revisited in terms of both the adopted measures. Using
Riesz's theorem, we obtain two uncertainty relations for any pair of
generalized resolutions of the identity in terms of the Renyi and Tsallis
entropies. The inequality with Renyi's entropies is an improvement of the
previous one, whereas the inequality with Tsallis' entropies is a new relation
of a general form. The latter formulation is explicitly shown for a pair of
complementary observables in a -level system and for the angle and the
angular momentum. The derived general relations are immediately applied to
extremal unravelings of two super-operators.Comment: 8 pages, one figure. More explanations are given for Eq. (2.19) and
