For every normed space , we note its closed unit ball and unit sphere by and , respectively. Let and be normed spaces such that is Lipschitz homeomorphic to , and is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .
We prove that the following are equivalent:
1. is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .
2. is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .
3. is Lipschitz homeomorphic to .
This result holds also in the uniform category, except (2 or 3) 1 which is known to be false.
Let be an -dimensional normal projective variety with only Gorenstein, terminal, -factorial singularities. Let be an ample line bundle on . Let denote the nef value of . The classification of via the nef value morphism is given for the situations when satisfies or .
A new construction of semi-free actions on Menger manifolds is presented. As an application we prove a theorem about simultaneous coexistence of countably many semi-free actions of compact metric zero-dimensional groups with the prescribed fixed-point sets: Let be a compact metric zero-dimensional group, represented as the direct product of subgroups , a -manifold and (resp., ) its pseudo-interior (resp., pseudo-boundary). Then, given closed subsets of , there exists a -action on such that (1) and are invariant subsets of ; and (2) each is the fixed point set of any element .
Let be a positive matrix-valued measure on a locally compact abelian group such that is the identity matrix. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on for the absence of a bounded non-constant matrix-valued function on satisfying the convolution equation . This extends Choquet and Deny's theorem for real-valued functions on .
A variety is a class of Banach algebras , for which there exists a family of laws such that is precisely the class of all Banach algebras which satisfies all of the laws (i.e. for all , . We say that is an -variety if all of the laws are homogeneous. A semivariety is a class of Banach algebras , for which there exists a family of homogeneous laws such that is precisely the class of all Banach algebras , for which there exists 0$"> such that for all homogeneous polynomials , , where . However, there is no variety between the variety of all -algebras and the variety of all -algebras, which can be defined by homogeneous laws alone. So the theory of semivarieties and the theory of varieties differ significantly. In this paper we shall construct uncountable chains and antichains of semivarieties which are not varieties.
Let be an infinite set, a set of pseudo-metrics on and If is limited (finite) for every and every then, for each we can define a pseudo-metric on by writing st We investigate the conditions under which the topology induced on by has a basis consisting only of standard sets. This investigation produces a theory with a variety of applications in functional analysis. For example, a specialization of some of our general results will yield such classical compactness theorems as Schauder's theorem, Mazur's theorem, and Gelfand-Philips's theorem.
Given an affine projection of a -polytope onto a polygon , it is proved that the poset of proper polytopal subdivisions of which are induced by has the homotopy type of a sphere of dimension if maps all vertices of into the boundary of . This result, originally conjectured by Reiner, is an analogue of a result of Billera, Kapranov and Sturmfels on cellular strings on polytopes and explains the significance of the interior point of present in the counterexample to their generalized Baues conjecture, constructed by Rambau and Ziegler.
We prove the existence of invariant projections from the Banach space of -pseudomeasures onto with for closed neutral subgroup of a locally compact group . As a main application we obtain that every closed neutral subgroup is a set of -synthesis in and in fact locally -Ditkin in . We also obtain an extension theorem concerning the Fourier algebra.
We show that a family of functions meromorphic in some domain is normal, if for all the derivative omits the value and if the values that can take at the zeros of satisfy certain restrictions. As an application we obtain a new proof of a theorem of Langley which classifies the functions meromorphic in the plane such that and have no zeros.
Every system of linearly independent homogeneous linear equations in unknowns with coefficients in has a unique (up to multiplication by ) non-zero solution vector in which the 's are integers with no common divisor greater than 1. It is known that, for large , can be arbitrarily greater than . We prove that if every equation, written as , is such that and are intervals of contiguous indices, then . This confirms conjectures of the author and Fred Roberts that arose in the theory of unique finite measurement.
Given a compact Riemann surface of genus and distinct points and on , we consider the non-compact Riemann surface with basepoint . The extension of mixed Hodge structures associated to the first two steps of is studied. We show that it determines the element in , where represents the canonical divisor of as well as the corresponding extension associated to . Finally, we deduce a pointed Torelli theorem for punctured Riemann surfaces.
Let and be finite groups and let be a hilbertian field. We show that if has a generic extension over and satisfies the arithmetic lifting property over , then the wreath product of and also satisfies the arithmetic lifting property over . Moreover, if the orders of and are relatively prime and is abelian, then any extension of by (which is necessarily a semidirect product) has the arithmetic lifting property.
If and are Banach lattices such that is separable and has the countable interpolation property, then the space of all continuous regular operators has the Riesz decomposition property. This result is a positive answer to a conjecture posed by A. W. Wickstead.
