Given a real irreducible dual pair there is an integral kernel operator which maps the distribution character of an irreducible admissible representation of the group with the smaller or equal rank to an invariant eigendistribution on the group with the larger or equal rank. If the pair is in the stable range and if the representation is unitary, then the resulting distribution is the character of the representation obtained via Howe's correspondence. This construction was transferred to the p-adic case and a conjecture was formulated.
In this note we verify a weaker version of this conjecture for dual pairs in the stable range over a p-adic field.

We establish a new and simple criterion that suffices to generate many spectral gaps for periodic word models. This leads to new examples of ergodic Schrödinger operators with Cantor spectra having zero Hausdorff dimension that simultaneously may have arbitrarily small supremum norm together with arbitrarily long runs on which the potential vanishes.

Frank et al. (2022) [38] stated that there is no relation between the reversed Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) inequalities and reverse Sobolev inequalities. However, we demonstrate that reverse Sobolev inequalities of order on the n-sphere can be readily derived from the reversed HLS inequalities. For the case , we present a simple proof of reverse Sobolev inequalities by using the center of mass condition introduced by Hang. In addition, applying this approach, we establish the quantitative stability of reverse Sobolev inequalities of order with explicit lower bounds. Finally, by using conformally covariant boundary operators and reverse Sobolev inequalities, we derive Sobolev trace inequalities on the unit ball.
Frank et al.(2022)[38]指出,反向Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS)不等式与反向Sobolev不等式之间没有关系。然而,我们证明了n球上γ∈(n2,n2+1)阶的反Sobolev不等式可以很容易地由反HLS不等式导出。对于γ∈(n2+1,n2+2)的情况,利用Hang引入的质心条件,给出了逆Sobolev不等式的一个简单证明。此外,利用该方法,我们建立了γ∈(n2+1,n2+2)阶逆Sobolev不等式具有明确下界的定量稳定性。最后,利用共形协变边界算子和逆Sobolev不等式,导出了单位球上的Sobolev迹不等式。

More precisely, if , , , then the asymptotic stability holds. This stability threshold is consistent with the optimal stability threshold for the 2D Navier-Stokes equations in Sobolev space. And in the sense of inviscid damping effect, the regularity assumption of the initial data should be sharp.

We consider a class of nonlinear, spatially inhomogeneous kinetic equations of BGK-type with density dependent collision rates. These equations share the same superlinearity as the Boltzmann equation, and fall into the class of run and tumble equations appearing in mathematical biology. We prove that the Cauchy problem is well-posed, and the solutions propagate Maxwellian bounds over time. Moreover, we show that the solutions approach to equilibrium with an exponential rate, known as a hypocoercivity result. Lastly, we derive a class of nonlinear diffusion equations as the hydrodynamic limit of the kinetic equations in the diffusive scaling, employing both hypocoercivity and relative entropy methods. The limit equations cover a wide range of nonlinear diffusion equations including both the porous medium and the fast diffusion equations.

In this work we establish a Freidlin-Wentzell type large deviation principle for stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equation, with either focusing or defocusing nonlinearity, driven by nonlinear multiplicative Lévy noise in the Marcus canonical form. This task is challenging in the current setting due to the presence of the power-type nonlinear term, the lack of regularization effect of the Schrödinger operator and the absence of compactness of embeddings. To overcome these difficulties, we employ a regularization procedure based on Yosida approximations and implement techniques such as time discretization, cut-off arguments, and relative entropy estimates of sequences of probability measures. Our innovative approach circumvents the need for compactness conditions, distinguishing our work from previous studies.

We extend the theory of holomorphic induction of unitary representations of a possibly infinite-dimensional Lie group G beyond the setting where the representation being induced is required to be norm-continuous. We allow the group G to be a connected BCH (Baker–Campbell–Hausdorff) Fréchet–Lie group. Given a smooth -action α on G, we proceed to show that the corresponding class of so-called positive energy representations is intimately related with holomorphic induction. Assuming that G is regular, we in particular show that if ρ is a unitary ground state representation of for which the energy-zero subspace admits a dense set of G-analytic vectors, then is holomorphically induced from the representation of the connected subgroup of α-fixed points on . As a consequence, we obtain an isomorphism between the corresponding commutants. We also find that two such ground state representations are unitarily equivalent if and only if their energy-zero subspaces are unitarily equivalent as H-representations. These results were previously only available under the assumption of norm-continuity of the H-representation on .
我们将可能无限维李群G的酉表示的全纯归纳理论推广到要求所归纳的表示是范数连续的集合之外。我们允许G群是一个连通的BCH (Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff) fr chet - lie群。给定G上的光滑r作用α,我们进一步证明了相应的一类所谓的正能量表示与全纯归纳密切相关。假设G是正则的,我们特别证明了如果ρ是G αR的酉基态表示,其能量零子空间Hρ(0)允许G解析向量的密集集合,那么ρ|G是由Hρ(0)上α-不动点的连通子群H:=(Gα)0的表示全纯导出的。因此,我们得到了相应交换子之间的同构B(Hρ)G = B(Hρ(0))H。我们还发现两个这样的基态表示当且仅当它们的能量零子空间与h表示一致时是等价的。这些结果以前只能在Hρ(0)上的h表示的范数连续性假设下才能得到。
