A Functional-Analytic Framework for Nonlinear Adaptive Memory: Hierarchical Kernels, State-Dependent Sensitivity, and Memory-Dependent Functionals

Abstract

This work develops a systematic functional-analytic framework for nonlinear adaptive memory, where the influence of past events depends on both elapsed time and the state values along a trajectory. The framework comprises three hierarchical layers. First, memory kernels are classified into mathematically admissible, regular (uniformly bounded, normalized, Lipschitz), and generalized (bounded variation, possibly sign-changing) classes. Second, adaptive sensitivity functions Lambda(s, f(s)) are introduced, satisfying natural conditions; a concrete construction based on historical deviation accumulation interpolates continuously between instantaneous response and history-dependent sensitivity, with an explicit Lipschitz estimate ||Lambda_f - Lambda_g||_inf <= L_Lambda ||f - g||_inf. Third, an adaptive memory-dependent functional S_{kappa, Lambda}(f) = sup_{t in I} (|f(t)| + integral_0^t Lambda(s, f(s)) kappa(t-s) |f(s)| ds) and the associated set M_{kappa, Lambda}(I) = {f : S_{kappa, Lambda}(f) < infinity} are constructed. Fundamental properties of the framework are established, including absolute convergence, measurability, uniform boundedness, positive definiteness, and comparison with the classical supremum norm. It is shown that C(I) is strictly contained in M_{kappa, Lambda}(I), with discontinuous functions (e.g., indicator functions of subintervals) belonging to the set -- capturing abrupt signal changes such as on-off switching in nonlinear systems. When the maximum of |f| is attained in the interior of the interval, a strict inequality S_{kappa, Lambda}(f) > ||f||_inf is proved, demonstrating the nontrivial contribution of the memory component.

Fixed Point Rigidity of the Operator $Γ_pΠ_p^\ast$ and the LYZ Conjecture

We characterize the fixed points of the operator $Γ_pΠ_p^\ast$ for $n\geq 3$ and $1 0$ if and only if $K$ is an origin-centered ellipsoid, thereby settling the Lutwak--Yang--Zhang fixed-point conjecture in this range. Our proof is based on a variational analysis along linear reflection shadow systems. To address the nonlinear structure of the $L_p$ setting, we introduce the $L_p$-Projection Rolodex, which provides a dimensional reduction of the volume of the polar $L_p$-projection body to weighted lower-dimensional sectional functionals. A suitable change of variables, together with Ball's harmonic Prékopa--Leindler inequality, yields the convexity needed along the shadow system. Under the fixed-point condition, a first-variation identity then forces $\operatorname{vol}_n(Π_p^\ast K_t)$ to remain constant throughout the deformation. The rigidity statement follows from the equality characterization under Steiner symmetrization.

Compactness of Toeplitz Operators on the Bergman Space

Let $φ\in L^\infty(\D)$. We study compactness criteria for \(T_φ\) on the Bergman space $A^2(\D)$. Axler and Zheng~\cite{AZ1998} established a necessary and sufficient condition for compactness in terms of the Berezin transform. For a general bounded measurable function $φ$, however, its Berezin transform $\tildeφ$ does not readily reveal the intrinsic properties of $φ$. Motivated by a characterization in terms of the symbol itself, Zhu~\cite{ZhuSlides} proposed a conjecture on compact Toeplitz operators. In this paper, we characterize compactness of $T_φ$ on the unweighted Bergman space in terms of local averages of the symbol. We prove that compactness is equivalent to the vanishing of averages over Bergman disks of any prescribed fixed radius. We also establish an equivalent criterion in terms of Carleson box averages that tend to zero uniformly in the angular variable. Finally, we construct a nonnegative bounded symbol whose Carleson box averages tend to zero at every fixed angle, although the associated Toeplitz operator is not compact.

Order automorphisms of partial isometries in $M_n(\mathbb C)$

We investigate and characterize order automorphisms on the set of partial isometries in the finite-dimensional matrix algebra $M_n(\mathbb{C})$. Different from the classical order automorphisms of subspace lattices, which can be implemented by standard invertible or unitary transformations, the order automorphisms considered herein admit no such conventional matrix representations. Instead, they are essentially governed by matrices such that $I-(A+A^*)$ is either positive or negative invertible. The results reveal that the structural features of order automorphisms for partial isometries are substantially more intricate than those of classical subspace automorphisms.
