On the Representation of Shift-Varying Linear System Maps

An expression is given for the most general continuous causal linear input–output map that takes the space of (Lebesgue) integrable functions into itself. This expression is a function‐space limit of an integral. As an application, a representation result is given for an important family of linear maps that take the space of bounded measurable functions into itself and satisfy a certain continuity condition. Some related material concerning engineering education is also given. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

We give an expression for the most general input-output map associated with the members of a certain important large family of multidimensional linear shift-invariant systems with bounded Lebesgue-measurable inputs. The expression given is an iterated function-space limit of a convolution. We also give a necessary and sufficient condition under which the limit can be written as a convolution with an integrable impulse-response function. A key role is played by a certain family of weighting operators. It is observed that for the large family of inputs and maps addressed, the Dirac impulse-response concept is in fact not the key concept concerning the representation of H, and that instead the inputoutput properties of H are determined in general by a certain type of family of responses. Some related material concerning engineering education is also given.

For the Fr'{e}chet algebras $(A, (p_k))$ and $(B, (q_k))$ and $n in mathbb{N}$, $ngeq 2$, a linear map $T:A rightarrow B$ is called textit{almost $n$-multiplicative}, with respect to $(p_k)$ and $(q_k)$, if there exists $varepsilongeq 0$ such that$$q_k(Ta_1a_2cdots a_n-Ta_1Ta_2cdots Ta_n)leq varepsilon p_k(a_1) p_k(a_2)cdots p_k(a_n),$$for each $kin mathbb{N}$ and $a_1, a_2, ldots, a_nin A$. The linear map $T$ is called textit{weakly almost $n$-multiplicative}, if there exists $varepsilongeq 0$ such that for every $kin mathbb{N}$ there exists $n(k)in mathbb{N}$ with$$q_k(Ta_1a_2cdots a_n-Ta_1Ta_2cdots Ta_n)leq varepsilon p_{n(k)}(a_1) p_{n(k)}(a_2)cdots p_{n(k)}(a_n),$$for each $k in mathbb{N}$ and $a_1, a_2, ldots, a_nin A$.The linear map $T$ is called $n$-multiplicative if$$Ta_{1}a_{2} cdots a_{n} = Ta_{1} Ta_{2} cdots Ta_{n},$$for every $a_{1}, a_{2},ldots, a_{n} in A$.In this paper, we investigate automatic continuity of (weakly) almost $n$-multiplicative maps between certain classes of Fr'{e}chet algebras, including Banach algebras. We show that if $(A, (p_k))$ is a Fr'{e}chet algebra and $T: A rightarrow mathbb{C}$ is a weakly almost $n$-multiplicative linear functional, then either $T$ is $n$-multiplicative, or it is continuous. Moreover, if $(A, (p_k))$ and $(B, (q_k))$ are Fr'{e}chet algebras and $T:A rightarrow B$ is a continuous linear map, then under certain conditions $T$ is weakly almost $n$-multiplicative for each $ngeq 2$. In particular, every continuous linear functional on $A$ is weakly almost $n$-multiplicative for each $ngeq 2$.

A linear map $T$ from a Banach algebra $A$ into another $B$ preserves zero products if $T(a)T(b)=0$ whenever $a,b\in A$ are such that $ab=0$. This paper is mainly concerned with the question of whether every continuous linear surjective map $T\colon A\rig

We characterize the pairs of Moscatelli Frechet and spaces such that: 1) Every continuous linear map from E into F sends bounded sets in E into precompact ones in F. 2) Every bounded map from E into F sends some 0-neighbourhood in E into a precompact set in F.

On spaces of continuous linear mappings between locally convex spaces

Surjective linear maps preserving local spectra

Continuous extension of functions from countable sets

A theory of test function spaces is developed. These are generalizations of test function spaces of type Hμ. The elements of the dual spaces are called ultradistributions, It is shown that the Hankel transformation hμ for μ≧−1/2 is a continuous linear mapping from each of these spaces into certain spaces of the above type. The generalized Hankel transformation hμ′ is defined as a continuous linear mapping between the dual spaces. Hankel transformations of arbitrary order and also of arbitrary growth are studied. The theory thus developed is applied to prove a uniqueness theorem for the Cauchy problem for the operator Sμ.

Linear maps preserving G-unitary operators in Hilbert space

Let $G$ be a locally compact amenable group. The goal of this paper is to investigate the problem of surjective zero products preserving maps from the Fourier algebra of $G$ into a completely contractive Banach algebra. We show that if $B$ is a completely contractive Banach algebra which is faithful and factors weakly, then every surjective completely bounded linear map from $A(G)$ into $B$ which preserves zero products is a weighted homomorphism. Moreover an equivalent condition is given for such a map to be a homomorphism. In particular, this result implies that if $B$ is a commutative C$^*$-algebra or a matrix space and $T:A(G)\rightarrow B$ is a continuous surjective linear map which preserves zero products, then $T$ is a weighted homomorphism and there is an equivalent condition for $T$ to be a homomorphism.
