TY - INPR A1 - Krainer, Thomas T1 - The calculus of Volterra Mellin pseudodifferential operators with operator-valued symbols N2 - We introduce the calculus of Mellin pseudodifferential operators parameters based on "twisted" operator-valued Volterra symbols as well aas the abstract Mellin calclus with holomorphic symbols. We establish the properties of the symblic and operational calculi, and we give and make use of explicit oscillatory integral formulas on the symbolic side, e. g., for the Leibniz-product, kernel cut-off, and Mellin quantization. Moreover, we introduce the notion of parabolicity for the calculi of Volterra Mellin operators, and construct Volterra parametrices for parabolic operators within the calculi.

Ellipticity is proven to be equivalent to the Fredholm property in these spaces, it turns out to be independent of the choice of p. We then show that the cone algebra is closed under inversion: whenever an operator is invertible between the associated Sobolev spaces, its inverse belongs to the calculus. We use these results to analyze the behaviour of these operators on Lp(B).

Under suitable ellipticity assumptions we can define a family of complex powers A up(z), z ∈ C.

The singularities may be general enough, varying from Lipschitz domains to domains with cuspidal edges on the boundary. Following Lopatinskii we reduce the Neumann problem to a singular integral equation of the boundary. The Fredholm solvability of this equation is then equivalent to the Fredholm property of the Neumann problem in suitable function spaces. The boundary integral equation is explicitly written and may be treated in diverse methods. This way we obtain, in particular, asymptotic expansions of harmonic forms near singularities of the boundary.

Parabolicity is determined by the invertibility of the principal symbols, and as a result is equivalent to the invertibility of the operators within the calculus. Existence, uniqueness, regularity, and asymptotics of solutions as t → ∞ are consquences of the mapping properties of the operators in exponentially weighted Sobolev spaces and subspaces with asymptotics. An important aspect of this work is that the microlocal and global kernel structure of the inverse operator (solution operator) of a parabolic boundary value problem for large times is clarified. Moreover, our approach naturally yields qualitative pertubation results for the solvability theory of parabolic boundary value problems. To achieve these results, we assign t = ∞ the meaning of a conical point and treat the operators as totally characteristic pseudodifferential boundary value problems.

Restriction of the integration region to a subset of supermoduli space and a single fundamental domain of the super-modular group suggests an exponential dependence on the genus. Upper bounds for these estimates are obtained for arbitrary N-point superstring scattering amplitudes and are shown to be consistent with exact results obtained for special type II string amplitudes for orbifold or Calabi-Yau compactifications. The genus-dependence is then obtained by considering the effect of the remaining contribution to the superstring amplitudes after the coefficients of the formally divergent parts of the integrals vanish as a result of a sum over spin structures. The introduction of supersymmetry therefore leads to the elimination of large-order divergences in string pertubation theory, a result which is based only on the supersymmetric generalization of the polyakov measure and not the gauge group of the string model.

In particular, they presented a holomorphic Lefschtz formula for compact complex manifolds without boundary, a result, in the framework of algebraic geometry due to Eichler (1957) for holomorphic curves.

Ausgehend von verschiedenen Vorstellungen zum Winkelbegriff wird in dieser Arbeit ein Lehrgang zur Vermittlung des Winkelbegriffs entwickelt und letztlich in konkrete Umsetzungen für den Schulunterricht überführt. Dabei erfolgt zunächst eine stoffdidaktische Auseinandersetzung mit dem Winkelbegriff, die von einer informationstheoretischen Winkeldefinition begleitet wird. In dieser wird eine Definition für den Winkelbegriff unter der Fragestellung entwickelt, welche Informationen man über einen Winkel benötigt, um ihn beschreiben zu können. So können die in der fachdidaktischen Literatur auftretenden Winkelvorstellungen aus fachmathematischer Perspektive erneut abgeleitet und validiert werden. Parallel dazu wird ein Verfahren beschrieben, wie Winkel – auch unter dynamischen Aspekten – informationstechnisch verarbeitet werden können, so dass Schlussfolgerungen aus der informationstheoretischen Winkeldefinition beispielsweise in dynamischen Geometriesystemen zur Verfügung stehen. Unter dem Gesichtspunkt, wie eine Abstraktion des Winkelbegriffs im Mathematikunterricht vonstatten gehen kann, werden die Grundvorstellungsidee sowie die Lehrstrategie des Aufsteigens vom Abstrakten zum Konkreten miteinander in Beziehung gesetzt. Aus der Verknüpfung der beiden Theorien wird ein grundsätzlicher Weg abgeleitet, wie im Rahmen der Lehrstrategie eine Ausgangsabstraktion zu einzelnen Winkelaspekten aufgebaut werden kann, was die Generierung von Grundvorstellungen zu den Bestandteilen des jeweiligen Winkelaspekts und zum Operieren mit diesen Begriffsbestandteilen ermöglichen soll. Hierfür wird die Lehrstrategie angepasst, um insbesondere den Übergang von Winkelsituationen zu Winkelkontexten zu realisieren. Explizit für den Aspekt des Winkelfeldes werden, anhand der Untersuchung der Sichtfelder von Tieren, Lernhandlungen und Forderungen an ein Lernmodell beschrieben, die Schülerinnen und Schüler bei der Begriffsaneignung unterstützen. Die Tätigkeitstheorie, der die genannte Lehrstrategie zuzuordnen ist, zieht sich als roter Faden durch die weitere Arbeit, wenn nun theoriebasiert Designprinzipien generiert werden, die in die Entwicklung einer interaktiven Lernumgebung münden. Hierzu wird u. a. das Modell der Artifact-Centric Activity Theory genutzt, das das Beziehungsgefüge aus Schülerinnen und Schülern, dem mathematischen Gegenstand und einer zu entwickelnden App als vermittelndes Medium beschreibt, wobei der Einsatz der App im Unterrichtskontext sowie deren regelgeleitete Entwicklung Bestandteil des Modells sind. Gemäß dem Ansatz der Fachdidaktischen Entwicklungsforschung wird die Lernumgebung anschließend in mehreren Zyklen erprobt, evaluiert und überarbeitet. Dabei wird ein qualitatives Setting angewandt, das sich der Semiotischen Vermittlung bedient und untersucht, inwiefern sich die Qualität der von den Schülerinnen und Schülern gezeigten Lernhandlungen durch die Designprinzipien und deren Umsetzung erklären lässt. Am Ende der Arbeit stehen eine finale Version der Designprinzipien und eine sich daraus ergebende Lernumgebung zur Einführung des Winkelfeldbegriffs in der vierten Klassenstufe. N2 - The diversity of the concept »angle« can be both exciting and challenging when looking at how to access it in mathematics education in schools. In this thesis, based on different ideas of the angle concept, a training course for conveying the concept will be developed and translated into concrete implementations for school teaching. First, there will be a didactical subject matter discussion of the angle concept, which will be accompanied by an angle definition from information theory. Through the didactical subject matter discussion, a definition for the angle concept will be developed which is guided by the question of what kind of information about an angle is needed in order to describe it. This way, the diverse ideas of the angle concept discussed in mathematics didactics literature can be once again derived and validated from a mathematical point of view. In parallel, a method will be described of how an angle - even one with dynamic aspects - can be handled in terms of information technology, so that conclusions can be drawn from a definition from information theory for dynamic geometry environments for instance. Considering how abstraction of the angle concept can take place in mathematics education, the Idea of Grundvorstellungen will then be connected to the structural principle of the Ascent From the Abstract to the Concrete. Based on the connection of these two theories, a training course will be developed that aims to construct an initial abstract of certain aspects of the angle concept which, in turn, aims at enabling the generating of Grundvorstellungen towards components of the angle concept and at operating with it. For this, the structural principle will be adapted – specifically to realize the transition from angle situations to angle contexts. For one aspect, the angular field, there will be a description of learning actions and demands on a learning model that supports students’ concept acquisition. The angular field, in this step, will be represented by vision fields of animals. Activity theory, on which the structural principle is based, depicts the recurring theme throughout this thesis when generating design principles that lead towards the development of an interactive learning environment. For this, the Artifact-Centric Activity Theory model will be used in order to describe connections between students, the mathematical topic and the to-be-created app. The use of the app in classroom situations, as well as its rule-governed development, are components of the model. Following a Design-Based Research approach, this learning environment will then go through several cycles of test, evaluation and revision. For this purpose, a qualitative setting will be applied using Semiotic Mediation. It will be used to investigate how far design principles, as well as their implementation, impacts on the quality of student’s learning actions. As an outcome of this thesis, a final version of the design principles and an ensuing learning environment that introduces the concept of »angular field« in grade four teaching will be created.

We first present an existence result for infinite-volume marked Gibbs point processes. More precisely, we use the so-called entropy method (and large-deviation tools) to construct marked Gibbs point processes in R^d under quite general assumptions. In particular, the random marks belong to a general normed space S and are not bounded. Moreover, we allow for interaction functionals that may be unbounded and whose range is finite but random. The entropy method relies on showing that a family of finite-volume Gibbs point processes belongs to sequentially compact entropy level sets, and is therefore tight. We then present infinite-dimensional Langevin diffusions, that we put in interaction via a Gibbsian description. In this setting, we are able to adapt the general result above to show the existence of the associated infinite-volume measure. We also study its correlation functions via cluster expansion techniques, and obtain the uniqueness of the Gibbs process for all inverse temperatures β and activities z below a certain threshold. This method relies in first showing that the correlation functions of the process satisfy a so-called Ruelle bound, and then using it to solve a fixed point problem in an appropriate Banach space. The uniqueness domain we obtain consists then of the model parameters z and β for which such a problem has exactly one solution. Finally, we explore further the question of uniqueness of infinite-volume Gibbs point processes on R^d, in the unmarked setting. We present, in the context of repulsive interactions with a hard-core component, a novel approach to uniqueness by applying the discrete Dobrushin criterion to the continuum framework. We first fix a discretisation parameter a>0 and then study the behaviour of the uniqueness domain as a goes to 0. With this technique we are able to obtain explicit thresholds for the parameters z and β, which we then compare to existing results coming from the different methods of cluster expansion and disagreement percolation. Throughout this thesis, we illustrate our theoretical results with various examples both from classical statistical mechanics and stochastic geometry. N2 - Diese Arbeit konzentriert sich auf die Untersuchung von markierten Gibbs-Punkt-Prozessen und stellt insbesondere einige Ergebnisse zu deren Existenz und Eindeutigkeit vor. Dabei werden Ideen und Techniken aus verschiedenen Bereichen der statistischen Mechanik verwendet: die Entropie-Methode aus der Theorie der großen Abweichungen, die Cluster-Expansion und die Kirkwood-Salsburg-Gleichungen, das Dobrushin-Kontraktionsprinzip und die Disagreement-Perkolation. Wir präsentieren zunächst ein Existenzergebnis für unendlich-volumige markierte Gibbs-Punkt-Prozesse. Genauer gesagt verwenden wir die sogenannte Entropie-Methode (und Werkzeuge der großen Abweichung), um markierte Gibbs-Punkt-Prozesse in R^d unter möglichst allgemeinen Annahmen zu konstruieren. Insbesondere gehören die zufälligen Markierungen zu einem allgemeinen normierten Raum und sind nicht beschränkt. Außerdem lassen wir Interaktionsfunktionale zu, die unbeschränkt sein können und deren Reichweite endlich, aber zufällig ist. Die Entropie-Methode beruht darauf, zu zeigen, dass eine Familie von endlich-volumigen Gibbs-Punkt-Prozessen zu sequentiell kompakten Entropie-Niveau-Mengen gehört, und daher dicht ist. Wir stellen dann unendlich-dimensionale Langevin-Diffusionen vor, die wir über eine Gibbssche Beschreibung in Wechselwirkung setzen. In dieser Umgebung sind wir in der Lage, das vorangehend vorgestellte allgemeine Ergebnis anzupassen, um die Existenz des zugehörigen unendlich-dimensionalen Maßes zu zeigen. Wir untersuchen auch seine Korrelationsfunktionen über Cluster-Expansions Techniken und erhalten die Eindeutigkeit des Gibbs-Prozesses für alle inversen Temperaturen β und Aktivitäten z unterhalb einer bestimmten Schwelle. Diese Methode beruht darauf, zunächst zu zeigen, dass die Korrelationsfunktionen des Prozesses eine so genannte Ruelle-Schranke erfüllen, um diese dann zur Lösung eines Fixpunktproblems in einem geeigneten Banach-Raum zu verwenden. Der Eindeutigkeitsbereich, den wir erhalten, wird dann aus den Modellparametern z und β definiert, für die ein solches Problem genau eine Lösung hat. Schließlich untersuchen wir die Frage nach der Eindeutigkeit von unendlich-volumigen Gibbs-Punkt-Prozessen auf R^d im unmarkierten Fall weiter. Im Zusammenhang mit repulsiven Wechselwirkungen basierend auf einer Hartkernkomponente stellen wir einen neuen Ansatz zur Eindeutigkeit vor, indem wir das diskrete Dobrushin-Kriterium im kontinuierlichen Rahmen anwenden. Wir legen zunächst einen Diskretisierungsparameter a>0 fest und untersuchen dann das Verhalten des Bereichs der Eindeutigkeit, wenn a gegen 0 geht. Mit dieser Technik sind wir in der Lage, explizite Schwellenwerte für die Parameter z und β zu erhalten, die wir dann mit bestehenden Ergebnissen aus den verschiedenen Methoden der Cluster-Expansion und der Disagreement-Perkolation vergleichen. In dieser Arbeit illustrieren wir unsere theoretischen Ergebnisse mit verschiedenen Beispielen sowohl aus der klassischen statistischen Mechanik als auch aus der stochastischen Geometrie.

Unraveling such transitions yields essential information for the understanding of the observed system’s intrinsic evolution and potential external influences. A precise detection of multiple changes is therefore of great importance for various research disciplines, such as environmental sciences, bioinformatics and economics. The primary purpose of the detection approach introduced in this thesis is the investigation of transitions underlying direct or indirect climate observations. In order to develop a diagnostic approach capable to capture such a variety of natural processes, the generic statistical features in terms of central tendency and dispersion are employed in the light of Bayesian inversion. In contrast to established Bayesian approaches to multiple changes, the generic approach proposed in this thesis is not formulated in the framework of specialized partition models of high dimensionality requiring prior specification, but as a robust kernel-based approach of low dimensionality employing least informative prior distributions. First of all, a local Bayesian inversion approach is developed to robustly infer on the location and the generic patterns of a single transition. The analysis of synthetic time series comprising changes of different observational evidence, data loss and outliers validates the performance, consistency and sensitivity of the inference algorithm. To systematically investigate time series for multiple changes, the Bayesian inversion is extended to a kernel-based inference approach. By introducing basic kernel measures, the weighted kernel inference results are composed into a proxy probability to a posterior distribution of multiple transitions. The detection approach is applied to environmental time series from the Nile river in Aswan and the weather station Tuscaloosa, Alabama comprising documented changes. The method’s performance confirms the approach as a powerful diagnostic tool to decipher multiple changes underlying direct climate observations. Finally, the kernel-based Bayesian inference approach is used to investigate a set of complex terrigenous dust records interpreted as climate indicators of the African region of the Plio-Pleistocene period. A detailed inference unravels multiple transitions underlying the indirect climate observations, that are interpreted as conjoint changes. The identified conjoint changes coincide with established global climate events. In particular, the two-step transition associated to the establishment of the modern Walker-Circulation contributes to the current discussion about the influence of paleoclimate changes on the environmental conditions in tropical and subtropical Africa at around two million years ago. N2 - Im Allgemeinen stellen punktuelle Veränderungen in Zeitreihen (change points) eine Heterogenität in den statistischen oder dynamischen Charakteristika der Observablen dar. Das Auffinden und die Beschreibung solcher Übergänge bietet grundlegende Informationen über das beobachtete System hinsichtlich seiner intrinsischen Entwicklung sowie potentieller externer Einflüsse. Eine präzise Detektion von Veränderungen ist daher für die verschiedensten Forschungsgebiete, wie den Umweltwissenschaften, der Bioinformatik und den Wirtschaftswissenschaften von großem Interesse. Die primäre Zielsetzung der in der vorliegenden Doktorarbeit vorgestellten Detektionsmethode ist die Untersuchung von direkten als auch indirekten Klimaobservablen auf Veränderungen. Um die damit verbundene Vielzahl an möglichen natürlichen Prozessen zu beschreiben, werden im Rahmen einer Bayes’schen Inversion die generischen statistischen Merkmale Zentraltendenz und Dispersion verwendet. Im Gegensatz zu etablierten Bayes’schen Methoden zur Analyse von multiplen Übergängen, die im Rahmen von Partitionsmodellen hoher Dimensionalität formuliert sind und die Spezifikation von Priorverteilungen erfordern, wird in dieser Doktorarbeit ein generischer, Kernel-basierter Ansatz niedriger Dimensionalität mit minimal informativen Priorverteilungen vorgestellt. Zunächst wird ein lokaler Bayes’scher Inversionsansatz entwickelt, der robuste Rückschlüsse auf die Position und die generischen Charakteristika einer einzelnen Veränderung erlaubt. Durch die Analyse von synthetischen Zeitreihen die dem Einfluss von Veränderungen unterschiedlicher Signifikanz, Datenverlust und Ausreißern unterliegen wird die Leistungsfähigkeit, Konsistenz und Sensitivität der Inversionmethode begründet. Um Zeitreihen auch auf multiple Veränderungen systematisch untersuchen zu können, wird die Methode der Bayes’schen Inversion zu einem Kernel-basierten Ansatz erweitert. Durch die Einführung grundlegender Kernel-Maße können die Kernel-Resultate zu einer gewichteten Wahrscheinlichkeit kombiniert werden die als Proxy einer Posterior-Verteilung multipler Veränderungen dient. Der Detektionsalgorithmus wird auf reale Umweltmessreihen vom Nil-Fluss in Aswan und von der Wetterstation Tuscaloosa, Alabama, angewendet, die jeweils dokumentierte Veränderungen enthalten. Das Ergebnis dieser Analyse bestätigt den entwickelten Ansatz als eine leistungsstarke diagnostische Methode zur Detektion multipler Übergänge in Zeitreihen. Abschließend wird der generische Kernel-basierte Bayes’sche Ansatz verwendet, um eine Reihe von komplexen terrigenen Staubdaten zu untersuchen, die als Klimaindikatoren der afrikanischen Region des Plio-Pleistozän interpretiert werden. Eine detaillierte Untersuchung deutet auf multiple Veränderungen in den indirekten Klimaobservablen hin, von denen einige als gemeinsame Übergänge interpretiert werden. Diese gemeinsam auftretenden Ereignisse stimmen mit etablierten globalen Klimaereignissen überein. Insbesondere der gefundene Zwei-Stufen-Übergang, der mit der Ausbildung der modernen Walker-Zirkulation assoziiert wird, liefert einen wichtigen Beitrag zur aktuellen Diskussion über den Einfluss von paläoklimatischen Veränderungen auf die Umweltbedingungen im tropischen und subtropischen Afrika vor circa zwei Millionen Jahren.

T1 - Rocking subdiffusive ratchets BT - origin, optimization and efficiency T2 - Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena N2 - We study origin, parameter optimization, and thermodynamic efficiency of isothermal rocking ratchets based on fractional subdiffusion within a generalized non-Markovian Langevin equation approach. A corresponding multi-dimensional Markovian embedding dynamics is realized using a set of auxiliary Brownian particles elastically coupled to the central Brownian particle (see video on the journal web site). We show that anomalous subdiffusive transport emerges due to an interplay of nonlinear response and viscoelastic effects for fractional Brownian motion in periodic potentials with broken space-inversion symmetry and driven by a time-periodic field. The anomalous transport becomes optimal for a subthreshold driving when the driving period matches a characteristic time scale of interwell transitions. It can also be optimized by varying temperature, amplitude of periodic potential and driving strength. The useful work done against a load shows a parabolic dependence on the load strength. It grows sublinearly with time and the corresponding thermodynamic efficiency decays algebraically in time because the energy supplied by the driving field scales with time linearly. However, it compares well with the efficiency of normal diffusion rocking ratchets on an appreciably long time scale.

In the limit of infinitely high frequencies, the geometrical optics approximation provides a conceptual transition between the test field and an effective point-particle description. The corresponding point-particles, or wave rays, coincide with the geodesics of the underlying spacetime. For most astrophysical applications of interest, such as the observation of celestial bodies, gravitational lensing, or the observation of cosmic rays, the geometrical optics approximation and the effective point-particle description represent a satisfactory theoretical model. However, the geometrical optics approximation gradually breaks down as test fields of finite frequency are considered. In this thesis, we consider the propagation of test fields on spacetime, beyond the leading-order geometrical optics approximation. By performing a covariant Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin analysis for test fields, we show how higher-order corrections to the geometrical optics approximation can be considered. The higher-order corrections are related to the dynamics of the spin internal degree of freedom of the considered test field. We obtain an effective point-particle description, which contains spin-dependent corrections to the geodesic motion obtained using geometrical optics. This represents a covariant generalization of the well-known spin Hall effect, usually encountered in condensed matter physics and in optics. Our analysis is applied to electromagnetic and massive Dirac test fields, but it can easily be extended to other fields, such as linearized gravity. In the electromagnetic case, we present several examples where the gravitational spin Hall effect of light plays an important role. These include the propagation of polarized light rays on black hole spacetimes and cosmological spacetimes, as well as polarization-dependent effects on the shape of black hole shadows. Furthermore, we show that our effective point-particle equations for polarized light rays reproduce well-known results, such as the spin Hall effect of light in an inhomogeneous medium, and the relativistic Hall effect of polarized electromagnetic wave packets encountered in Minkowski spacetime. N2 - Unser grundlegendes Verständnis des Universums basiert auf Einsteins allgemeiner Relativitätstheorie, die eine Beschreibung in Form einer vierdimensional gekrümmten Raumzeit liefert, in der die Anziehungskraft der Gravitation in der Krümmung der Raumzeit kodiert ist. Die überwiegende Mehrheit der experimentellen Tests, die Einsteins allgemeine Relativitätstheorie bestätigt haben, basiert auf der Beobachtung elektromagnetischer Strahlung, die von entfernten astrophysikalischen Quellen wie Sternen oder Galaxien stammt. Daher ist ein tiefgreifendes Verständnis der Dynamik der sich in der Raumzeit ausbreitenden elektromagnetischen Strahlung von entscheidender Bedeutung. Elektromagnetische Phänomene werden durch Maxwell-Gleichungen beschrieben. Die Ausbreitung elektromagnetischer Strahlung in der Raumzeit ist jedoch sehr komplexe, und es ist im Allgemeinen nützlich, Näherungen zu betrachten, welche eine vereinfachte Beschreibung liefern. Auf diese Weise können die Haupteigenschaften des Systems in einem reduzierten Gleichungssystem codiert und die Gültigkeit der Näherung quantitativ kontrolliert werden. Beispielsweise kann die Ausbreitung elektromagnetischer Strahlung in der Raumzeit durch Anwendung der geometrischen Optik auf die Maxwell-Gleichungen beschrieben werden. Diese liefert ein Modell für die Ausbreitung elektromagnetischer Strahlung in Form von Lichtstrahlen, die sich auf dem kürzesten Weg zwischen zwei Punkten ausbreiten. Im Kontext von Einsteins allgemeiner Relativitätstheorie entsprechen dise Lichtstrahlen den Nullgeodäten der zugrunde liegenden gekrümmten Raumzeit. Für die meisten astrophysikalischen Anwendungen von Interesse, wie die Beobachtung von Himmelskörpern oder Gravitationslinsen, stellen die Näherungen der geometrischen Optik und damit die Beschreibung der Ausbreitung elektromagnetischer Strahlung durch Lichtstrahlen ein zufriedenstellendes theoretisches Modell dar. In dieser Arbeit untersuchen wir mögliche Korrekturen der Ausbreitung elektromagnetischer Strahlung in der Raumzeit, welche durch die Näherung der geometrischen Optik nicht erfasst werden. Solche Korrekturen sind aus der Optik bekannt, wo beobachtet wurde, dass die Ausbreitung von Lichtstrahlen in bestimmten Materialien durch die Polarisation des Lichts beeinflusst werden kann. Diese Korrekturen sind als Spin-Hall-Effekt von Licht bekannt. In dieser Arbeit wird gezeigt, dass ein ähnlicher Effekt für elektromagnetische Strahlung auftreten kann, welche sich in gekrümmter Raumzeit in der Nähe massiver astrophysikalischer Objekte wie Schwarzer Löcher oder Sterne ausbreitet. Darüber hinaus präsentieren wir, basierend auf der Dirac-Gleichung, eine ähnliche Analyse für die Bewegung von Elektronen in gekrümmten Raumzeiten.

Write Ssub(A)(D) for the space of solutions to thesystem Au = 0 in a domain D ⊂ X. Using reproducing kernels related to various Hilbert structures on subspaces of Ssub(A)(D) we show explicit identifications of the dual spaces. To prove the "regularity" of reproducing kernels up to the boundary of D we specify them as resolution operators of abstract Neumann problems. The matter thus reduces to a regularity theorem for the Neumann problem, a well-known example being the ∂-Neumann problem. The duality itself takes place only for those domains D which possess certain convexity properties with respect to A.

For that reason, we introduce the notion of a regular DAE as a DAE to which a vector field uniquely corresponds. Furthermore, a technique is described which yields a family of manifolds for a given DAE. This socalled family of constraint manifolds allows in turn the formulation of sufficient conditions for the regularity of a DAE. and the definition of the index of a regular DAE. We also state a method for the reduction of higher-index DAEs to lowsr-index ones that can be solved without introducing additional constants of integration. Finally, the notion of realizability of a given vector field by a regular DAE is introduced, and it is shown that any vector field can be realized by a regular DAE. Throughout this paper the problem of path-tracing is discussed as an illustration of the mathematical phenomena.

Mit diesen Worten beginnt eines der berühmtesten mathematischen Manuskripte des letzten Jahrhunderts. Es stammt vom Soldaten Wolfgang Döblin, Sohn des deutschen Schriftstellers Alfred Döblin, und trägt den Titel "Sur l'equation de Kolmogoroff". Seine Veröffentlichung verbindet sich mit einer unglaublichen Geschichte. Wolfgang Döblin, stationiert mit seiner Einheit in den Ardennen im Winter 1939/1940, arbeitete an diesem Manuskript. Er entschloss sich, es als versiegeltes Manuskript an die Academie des Sciences in Paris zu schicken. Aber er kehrte nie aus diesem Krieg zurück. Sein Manuskript blieb 60 Jahre unter Verschluss im Archiv, und wurde erst im Jahre 2000 geöffnet. Wie weit Döblin damit seiner Zeit voraus war, wurde erkannt, nachdem es von Bernard Bru und Marc Yor ausgewertet worden war. Im ersten Satz umschreibt W. Döblin gleichzeitig das Programm des Manuskripts: "Wir betrachten ein bewegliches Teilchen, das sich zufällig auf der Geraden (oder einem Teil davon) bewegt." Er widmet sich damit der Aufgabe, die Fundamente eines Gebiets zu legen, das wir heute als stochastische Analysis bezeichnen.

Under the harmonic gauge condition, the equations Rα,β = 0 are transferred into a system of quasi-linear wave equations which are called the reduced Einstein equations. The initial data for Einstein's equations are a proper Riemannian metric h(αβ) and a second fundamental form K(αβ). A necessary condition for the reduced Einstein equation to satisfy the vacuum equations is that the initial data satisfy Einstein constraint equations. Hence the data (h(αβ),K(αβ)) cannot serve as initial data for the reduced Einstein equations. Previous results in the case of asymptotically flat spacetimes provide a solution to the constraint equations in one type of Sobolev spaces, while initial data for the evolution equations belong to a different type of Sobolev spaces. The goal of our work is to resolve this incompatibility and to show that under the harmonic gauge the vacuum Einstein equations are well-posed in one type of Sobolev spaces.
