Abstract

We recall five families of polynomials constituting a part of the so-called Askey-Wilson scheme. We do this to expose properties of the Askey-Wilson (AW) polynomials that constitute the last, most complicated element of this scheme. In doing so we express AW density as a product of the density that makes $q-$Hermite polynomials orthogonal times a product of four characteristic function of $q-$Hermite polynomials (\ref{fAW}) just pawing the way to a generalization of AW integral. Our main results concentrate mostly on the complex parameters case forming conjugate pairs. We present new fascinating symmetries between the variables and some newly defined (by the appropriate conjugate pair) parameters. In particular in (\ref% {rozwiniecie1}) we generalize substantially famous Poisson-Mehler expansion formula (\ref{PM}) in which $q-$Hermite polynomials are replaced by Al-Salam-Chihara polynomials. Further we express Askey-Wilson polynomials as linear combinations of Al-Salam-Chihara (ASC) polynomials. As a by-product we get useful identities involving ASC polynomials. Finally by certain re-scaling of variables and parameters we reach AW polynomials and AW densities that have clear probabilistic interpretation.

Typical dynamical properties of operators on $\ell_p$

We investigate the typical dynamical properties of hypercyclic operators in $\mathcal{L}_M(X)$, the set of all bounded linear operators on $X$ whose norms are at most $M$, when $X=\ell_p$, $1< p<\infty$. We show that, with respect to SOT$^*$, a typical operator $T\in \mathcal{L}_M(X)$ is weakly mixing, is weakly disjoint from a given hypercyclic operator $S$, is not topologically ergodic, and satisfies $(T,T^2,\dotsc,T^k)$ is disjoint hypercyclic for any $k\geq 2$. We also study the typical dynamical properties for the concrete family $\mathcal{M}=\{I+B_w\in \mathcal{L}(X)\colon w\in c_0(\mathbb{Z})\}$, endowed with the norm topology, where $B_w$ is a bilateral weighted backward shift.

A bi-Lipschitz characterization of strong minimum-attainment for Lipschitz maps

We completely characterize the denseness of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz functions, a minimum analogue for strongly norm-attaining Lipschitz functions, in terms of bi-Lipschitz embeddings. More precisely, our main result shows that the set of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz functions defined on a complete metric space $M$ fails the denseness if and only if $M$ is bi-Lipschitz equivalent to a subset of $\mathbb{R}$ with positive Lebesgue measure, or equivalently, if $M$ admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into $\mathbb{R}$ and $M$ has positive 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure. As a consequence, we provide an isometric characterization of the pure 1-unrectifiability of $M$ in terms of strongly minimum-attaining Lipschitz maps defined on bi-Lipschitz copies of closed subsets of $M$. Several counterexamples showing that the main result cannot be naturally extended to the vector-valued setting are also presented.

On weak dominance of t-conorms over t-norms

The weak dominance of aggregation operators, particularly between triangular norms (t-norms) and triangular conorms (t-conorms), has attracted considerable attention in aggregation operator theory. While several characterizations have been obtained for Archimedean and continuous cases, a general criterion for continuous t-conorms over continuous t-norms remains to be fully clarified. In this paper, we provide a complete characterization of a continuous t-conorm weakly dominating a continuous t-norm. We first reduce the problem for ordinal sum operators to that for their single Archimedean components, and then express the weak dominance condition entirely in terms of the additive generators of these components. Our approach covers both strict and nilpotent cases uniformly, and recovers the known results for Archimedean operators as a special case.
