AbstractArchimedes knew that for a point P on a parabola X and a chord AB of X parallel to the tangent of X at P, the area of the region bounded by the parabola X and chord AB is four thirds of the area of the triangle {\bigtriangleup ABP}. Recently, the first two authors have proved that this fact is the characteristic property of parabolas.In this paper, we study strictly locally convex curves in the plane {{\mathbb{R}}^{2}}. As a result, generalizing the above mentioned characterization theorem for parabolas, we present two conditions, which are necessary and sufficient, for a strictly locally convex curve in the plane to be an open arc of a parabola.

The affine distance symmetry set (ADSS) of a plane curve is an affinely invariant analogue of the euclidean symmetry set (SS) [7], [6]. We list all transitions on the ADSS for generic 1-parameter families of plane curves. We show that for generic convex curves the possible transitions coincide with those for the SS but for generic non-convex curves, further transitions occur which are generic in 1-parameter families of bifurcation sets, but are impossible in the euclidean case. For a non-convex curve there are also additional local forms and transitions which do not fit into the generic structure of bifurcation sets at all. We give computational and experimental details of these.

The purpose of this paper is to study normal [Formula: see text]-lightlike submanifolds of indefinite nearly Kaehler manifolds. We find some necessary and sufficient conditions for an isometrically immersed [Formula: see text]-lightlike submanifold of an indefinite nearly Kaehler manifold to be a normal [Formula: see text]-lightlike submanifold. Further, we derive a characterization theorem for holomorphic bisectional curvature of a normal [Formula: see text]-lightlike submanifold of an indefinite nearly Kaehler manifold.

Let E be a separable Fréchet space, and let E* be its topological dual space. We recall that a Fréchet space is, by definition, a complete metrizable locally convex topological vector space. A sequence {Ln} of continuous linear functional is said to be interpolating if for every sequence {An} of complex numbers, there exists an ƒ ∈ E such that Ln(ƒ) = An for n = 1, 2, 3, … . In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions that {Ln} be an interpolating sequence. They are different from the conditions in [2] and don't seem to be easily interderivable with them.

In this paper we recall two basic conjectures on the developables of convex projective curves, prove one of them and disprove the other in the first nontrivial case of curves in ℝP3. Namely, we show that (i) the tangent developable of any convex curve in ℝP3has degree 4 and (ii) construct an example of 4 tangent lines to a convex curve in ℝP3such that no real line intersects all four of them. The question (discussed in [4, 18]) whether the second conjecture is true in the special case of rational normal curves still remains open.

AbstractLet E, F be Hausdorff locally convex spaces. In this note we consider conditions on E and F such that the dual space of the space Kb (E, F) (of quasi-compact operators) is a complemented subspace of the dual space of Lb (E, F) (of continuous linear operators). We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for Lb(E, F) to be semi-reflexive.

The convergence and blow-up results are established for the evolution of non-simple closed curves in an area-preserving curvature flow. It is shown that the global solution starting from a locally convex curve converges to an m-fold circle if the enclosed algebraic area A0 is positive, and evolves into a point if A0 = 0.

We define global Schauder decompositions of locally convex spaces and prove a necessary and sufficient condition for two spaces with global Schauder decompositions to be isomorphic. These results are applied to spaces of entire functions on a locally convex space.
