In this paper, we consider the continuity property of pseudo-differential operators with symbols whose Fourier transforms have compact support. As applications, we obtain the$L$^{$p$}-boundedness for symbols in Besov spaces and in modulation spaces.

It is shown that for any$t$, 0<$t$<∞, there is a Jordan arc Γ with endpoints 0 and 1 such that $\Gamma\setminus\{1\}\subseteq\mathbb{D}:=\{z:|z|<1\}$ and with the property that the analytic polynomials are dense in the Bergman space $\mathbb{A}^{t}(\mathbb{D}\setminus\Gamma)$ . It is also shown that one can go further in the Hardy space setting and find such a Γ that is in fact the graph of a continuous real-valued function on [0,1], where the polynomials are dense in $H^{t}(\mathbb{D}\setminus\Gamma)$ ; improving upon a result in an earlier paper.

A simplicial complex Δ is called$flag$if all minimal nonfaces of Δ have at most two elements. The following are proved: First, if Δ is a flag simplicial pseudomanifold of dimension$d$−1, then the graph of Δ (i) is (2$d$−2)-vertex-connected and (ii) has a subgraph which is a subdivision of the graph of the$d$-dimensional cross-polytope. Second, the$h$-vector of a flag simplicial homology sphere Δ of dimension$d$−1 is minimized when Δ is the boundary complex of the$d$-dimensional cross-polytope.

We obtain characterizations of positive Borel measures$μ$on$B$^{$n$}so that some weighted holomorphic Besov spaces$B$_{$s$}^{$p$}($ω$,$B$^{$n$}) are embedded in$L$^{$p$}($d$$μ$).

We give a sufficient condition on a Lévy measure$μ$which ensures that the generator$L$of the corresponding pure jump Lévy process is (locally) hypoelliptic, i.e., $\mathop {\mathrm {sing\,supp}}u\subseteq \mathop {\mathrm {sing\,supp}}Lu$ for all admissible$u$. In particular, we assume that $\mu|_{\mathbb {R}^{d}\setminus \{0\}}\in C^{\infty}(\mathbb {R}^{d}\setminus \{0\})$ . We also show that this condition is necessary provided that $\mathop {\mathrm {supp}}\mu$ is compact.
