Generalized soluble groups of finite co-central rank

Eine Gruppe G hat endlichen Prüferrang (bzw. Ko-zentralrang) kleiner gleich r, wenn für jede endlich erzeugte Gruppe H gilt: H (bzw. H modulo seinem Zentrum) ist r-erzeugbar. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden, soweit möglich, die bekannten Sätze über Gruppen von endlichem Prüferrang (kurz X-Gruppen), auf die wesentlich größere Klasse der Gruppen mit endlichem Ko-zentralrang (kurz R-Gruppen) verallgemeinert.Für lokal nilpotente R-Gruppen, welche torsionsfrei oder p-Gruppen sind, wird gezeigt, dass die Zentrumsfaktorgruppe eine X-Gruppe sein muss. Es folgt, dass Hyperzentralität und lokale Nilpotenz für R-Gruppen identische Bediungungen sind. Analog hierzu sind R-Gruppen genau dann lokal auflösbar, wenn sie hyperabelsch sind. Zentral für die Strukturtheorie hyperabelscher R-Gruppen ist die Tatsache, dass solche Gruppen eine aufsteigende Normalreihe abelscher X-Gruppen besitzen. Es wird eine Sylowtheorie für periodische hyperabelsche R-Gruppen entwickelt. Für torsionsfreie hyperabelsche R-Gruppen wird deren Auflösbarkeit bewiesen. Des weiteren sind lokal endliche R-Gruppen fast hyperabelsch. Für R-Gruppen fallen sehr große Gruppenklassen mit den fast hyperabelschen Gruppen zusammen. Hierzu wird der Begriff der Sektionsüberdeckung eingeführt und gezeigt, dass R-Gruppen mit fast hyperabelscher Sektionsüberdeckung fast hyperabelsch sind.

Ein inverses Problem für die degeneriert parabolische Richardsgleichung

In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden zwei physikalischeFließexperimente an Vliesstoffen untersucht, die dazu dienensollen, unbekannte hydraulische Parameter des Materials, wiez. B. die Diffusivitäts- oder Leitfähigkeitsfunktion, ausMeßdaten zu identifizieren. Die physikalische undmathematische Modellierung dieser Experimente führt auf einCauchy-Dirichlet-Problem mit freiem Rand für die degeneriertparabolische Richardsgleichung in derSättigungsformulierung, das sogenannte direkte Problem. Ausder Kenntnis des freien Randes dieses Problems soll dernichtlineare Diffusivitätskoeffizient derDifferentialgleichung rekonstruiert werden. Für diesesinverse Problem stellen wir einOutput-Least-Squares-Funktional auf und verwenden zu dessenMinimierung iterative Regularisierungsverfahren wie dasLevenberg-Marquardt-Verfahren und die IRGN-Methode basierendauf einer Parametrisierung des Koeffizientenraumes durchquadratische B-Splines. Für das direkte Problem beweisen wirunter anderem Existenz und Eindeutigkeit der Lösung desCauchy-Dirichlet-Problems sowie die Existenz des freienRandes. Anschließend führen wir formal die Ableitung desfreien Randes nach dem Koeffizienten, die wir für dasnumerische Rekonstruktionsverfahren benötigen, auf einlinear degeneriert parabolisches Randwertproblem zurück.Wir erläutern die numerische Umsetzung und Implementierungunseres Rekonstruktionsverfahrens und stellen abschließendRekonstruktionsergebnisse bezüglich synthetischer Daten vor.

Toeplitz operators on finite and infinite dimensional spaces with associated psi *-Fréchet algebras

The present thesis is a contribution to the multi-variable theory of Bergman and Hardy Toeplitz operators on spaces of holomorphic functions over finite and infinite dimensional domains. In particular, we focus on certain spectral invariant Frechet operator algebras F closely related to the local symbol behavior of Toeplitz operators in F. We summarize results due to B. Gramsch et.al. on the construction of Psi_0- and Psi^*-algebras in operator algebras and corresponding scales of generalized Sobolev spaces using commutator methods, generalized Laplacians and strongly continuous group actions. In the case of the Segal-Bargmann space H^2(C^n,m) of Gaussian square integrable entire functions on C^n we determine a class of vector-fields Y(C^n) supported in complex cones K. Further, we require that for any finite subset V of Y(C^n) the Toeplitz projection P is a smooth element in the Psi_0-algebra constructed by commutator methods with respect to V. As a result we obtain Psi_0- and Psi^*-operator algebras F localized in cones K. It is an immediate consequence that F contains all Toeplitz operators T_f with a symbol f of certain regularity in an open neighborhood of K. There is a natural unitary group action on H^2(C^n,m) which is induced by weighted shifts and unitary groups on C^n. We examine the corresponding Psi^*-algebra A of smooth elements in Toeplitz-C^*-algebras. Among other results sufficient conditions on the symbol f for T_f to belong to A are given in terms of estimates on its Berezin-transform. Local aspects of the Szegö projection P_s on the Heisenbeg group and the corresponding Toeplitz operators T_f with symbol f are studied. In this connection we apply a result due to Nagel and Stein which states that for any strictly pseudo-convex domain U the projection P_s is a pseudodifferential operator of exotic type (1/2, 1/2). The second part of this thesis is devoted to the infinite dimensional theory of Bergman and Hardy spaces and the corresponding Toeplitz operators. We give a new proof of a result observed by Boland and Waelbroeck. Namely, that the space of all holomorphic functions H(U) on an open subset U of a DFN-space (dual Frechet nuclear space) is a FN-space (Frechet nuclear space) equipped with the compact open topology. Using the nuclearity of H(U) we obtain Cauchy-Weil-type integral formulas for closed subalgebras A in H_b(U), the space of all bounded holomorphic functions on U, where A separates points. Further, we prove the existence of Hardy spaces of holomorphic functions on U corresponding to the abstract Shilov boundary S_A of A and with respect to a suitable boundary measure on S_A. Finally, for a domain U in a DFN-space or a polish spaces we consider the symmetrizations m_s of measures m on U by suitable representations of a group G in the group of homeomorphisms on U. In particular,in the case where m leads to Bergman spaces of holomorphic functions on U, the group G is compact and the representation is continuous we show that m_s defines a Bergman space of holomorphic functions on U as well. This leads to unitary group representations of G on L^p- and Bergman spaces inducing operator algebras of smooth elements related to the symmetries of U.

Pseudodifferential operators on Hilbert space riggings with associated psi *-algebras and generalized Hörmander classes

The present thesis is concerned with certain aspects of differential and pseudodifferential operators on infinite dimensional spaces. We aim to generalize classical operator theoretical concepts of pseudodifferential operators on finite dimensional spaces to the infinite dimensional case. At first we summarize some facts about the canonical Gaussian measures on infinite dimensional Hilbert space riggings. Considering the naturally unitary group actions in $L^2(H_-,gamma)$ given by weighted shifts and multiplication with $e^{iSkp{t}{cdot}_0}$ we obtain an unitary equivalence $F$ between them. In this sense $F$ can be considered as an abstract Fourier transform. We show that $F$ coincides with the Fourier-Wiener transform. Using the Fourier-Wiener transform we define pseudodifferential operators in Weyl- and Kohn-Nirenberg form on our Hilbert space rigging. In the case of this Gaussian measure $gamma$ we discuss several possible Laplacians, at first the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator and then pseudo-differential operators with negative definite symbol. In the second case, these operators are generators of $L^2_gamma$-sub-Markovian semi-groups and $L^2_gamma$-Dirichlet-forms. In 1992 Gramsch, Ueberberg and Wagner described a construction of generalized Hörmander classes by commutator methods. Following this concept and the classical finite dimensional description of $Psi_{ro,delta}^0$ ($0leqdeltaleqroleq 1$, $delta< 1$) in the $C^*$-algebra $L(L^2)$ by Beals and Cordes we construct in both cases generalized Hörmander classes, which are $Psi^*$-algebras. These classes act on a scale of Sobolev spaces, generated by our Laplacian. In the case of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator, we prove that a large class of continuous pseudodifferential operators considered by Albeverio and Dalecky in 1998 is contained in our generalized Hörmander class. Furthermore, in the case of a Laplacian with negative definite symbol, we develop a symbolic calculus for our operators. We show some Fredholm-criteria for them and prove that these Fredholm-operators are hypoelliptic. Moreover, in the finite dimensional case, using the Gaussian-measure instead of the Lebesgue-measure the index of these Fredholm operators is still given by Fedosov's formula. Considering an infinite dimensional Heisenberg group rigging we discuss the connection of some representations of the Heisenberg group to pseudo-differential operators on infinite dimensional spaces. We use this connections to calculate the spectrum of pseudodifferential operators and to construct generalized Hörmander classes given by smooth elements which are spectrally invariant in $L^2(H_-,gamma)$. Finally, given a topological space $X$ with Borel measure $mu$, a locally compact group $G$ and a representation $B$ of $G$ in the group of all homeomorphisms of $X$, we construct a Borel measure $mu_s$ on $X$ which is invariant under $B(G)$.
