This paper is concerned with investigation of vertical impedance function of a surface rigid circular foundation resting on a semi-infinite transversely isotropic alluvium. To this end, the equations of motion in cylindrical coordinate system, which because of axissymmetry are two coupled equations, are converted into one partial differential equation using a method of potential function. The g...

9.1.1 The Optimization Setup Let G = G(s) be a matrix-valued function bounded on the jθ-axis. The task of Hankel ˆ optimal model reduction of G calls for finding a stable LTI system G of order less than a given positive integer m, such that the Hankel norm ∞�∞H of the difference � = G − Ĝ is minimal. Remember that Hankel norm of an LTI system with transfer matrix � = �(s), input w, and output v...

We study families of generalized Catalan numbers, defined by convolution recurrence equations. We explore their relations to series reversion, Riordan array transforms, and in a special case, to Somos-4 sequences via the mechanism of the Hankel transform.

We investigate some properties of non-symmetric Jack, Hermite and Laguerre polynomials which occur as the polynomial part of the eigenfunctions for certain Calogero-Sutherland models with exchange terms. For the non-symmetric Jack polynomials, the constant term normalization N is evaluated using recurrence relations, and N is related to the norm for the non-symmetric analogue of the power-sum i...

The disc multiplier may be seen as a vector valued operator when we consider its projections in terms of the spherical harmonics. In this form, it represents a vector valued Hankel transform. We know that, for radial functions, it is bounded on the spaces Lplq (r n−1 dr) when 2n n+1 < p, q < 2n n−1 . Here we prove that there exist weak-type estimates for this operator for the extremal exponents...
