This paper is a sequel to [2], whose primary purposes are to clarify and generalize the concept introduced there of an eigenfunction of an inner function, and to answer questions raised there concerning the equivalence of several possible forms of the definition. A new definition, proposed here, leads to a complete characterization of the eigenfunctions of Potapov inner functions of normal operators, and the result is more satisfactory than [2, Theorem 3.4], although the latter is used strongly in the proof.Let be an inner function in the sense of Lax; i.e., is almost everywhere (a.e.) a unitary operator on a separable Hilbert space and belongs weakly to the Hardy class H2. An analytic function q (which will have to be a scalar inner function) was defined to be an eigenfunction of if the set of z in the disk {z: |z| ≦ 1} for which is invertible is a set of linear measure 0 on the circle {z: |z| = 1}.

We recall that a bounded linear operator T in a Hilbert space or finite-dimensional unitary space is said to be normal if T commutes with its adjoint operator T*, i.e. TT* = T*T. Most of the proofs given in the literature for the spectral theorem for normal operators, even in the finite-dimensional case, appeal to the corresponding results for Hermitian or unitary operators.

In this paper we shall examine the relationship between the numerical ranges and the spectra for semi-normal operators on uniformly smooth spaces.Let X be a complex Banach space. We denote by X* the dual space of X and by B(X) the space of all bounded linear operators on X. A linear functional F on B(X) is called state if ∥F∥ = F(I) = 1. When x ε X with ∥x∥ = 1, we denoteD(x) = {f ε X*:∥f∥ = f(x) = l}.

AbstractThe thermodynamic compatibility defined by the Drucker postulate applied to a phenomenological hysteretic material, belonging to a recently formulated class, is hereby investigated. Such a constitutive model is defined by means of a set of algebraic functions so that it does not require any iterative procedure to compute the response and its tangent operator. In this sense, the model is particularly feasible for dynamic analysis of structures. Moreover, its peculiar formulation permits the computation of thermodynamic compatibility conditions in closed form. It will be shown that, in general, the fulfillment of the Drucker postulate for arbitrary displacement ranges requires strong limitations of the constitutive parameters. Nevertheless, it is possible to determine a displacement compatibility range for arbitrary sets of parameters so that the Drucker postulate is fulfilled as long as the displacement amplitude does not exceed the computed threshold. Numerical applications are provided to test the computed compatibility conditions.

Earlier stochastic analyses of chemical reactions have provided formal solutions which are unsuitable for most purposes in that they are expressed in terms of complex algebraic functions. Normal approximations are derived here for solutions to a variety of reactions. Using these, it is possible to investigate the level at which the classical deterministic solutions become inadequate. This is important in fields such as radioimmunoassay.
