We show that a simply connected homotopy associative and homotopy commutative mod -space with finitely generated mod cohomology is homotopy equivalent to a finite product of , , the three-connected cover and the homotopy fiber of the map for . Our result also shows that a connected -space in the sense of Sugawara with finitely generated mod cohomology has the homotopy type of a finite product of , and for .
Kadison has shown that local derivations from a von Neumann algebra into any dual bimodule are derivations. In this paper we extend this result to local derivations from any -algebra into any Banach -bimodule . Most of the work is involved with establishing this result when is a commutative -algebra with one self-adjoint generator. A known result of the author about Jordan derivations then completes the argument. We show that these results do not extend to the algebra of continuously differentiable functions on . We also give an automatic continuity result, that is, we show that local derivations on -algebras are continuous even if not assumed a priori to be so.
Let be the group of automorphisms of a homogeneous tree , and let be a lattice subgroup of . Let be the tensor product of two spherical irreducible unitary representations of . We give an explicit decomposition of the restriction of to . We also describe the spherical component of explicitly, and this decomposition is interpreted as a multiplication formula for associated orthogonal polynomials.
This paper deals with upper bounds on arithmetic discriminants of algebraic points on curves over number fields. It is shown, via a result of Zhang, that the arithmetic discriminants of algebraic points that are not pull-backs of rational points on the projective line are smaller than the arithmetic discriminants of families of linearly equivalent algebraic points. It is also shown that bounds on the arithmetic discriminant yield information about how the fields of definition and differ when is an algebraic point on a curve and is a nonconstant morphism of curves. In particular, it is demonstrated that , with at most finitely many exceptions, whenever the degrees of and are sufficiently small, relative to the difference between the genera and . The paper concludes with a detailed analysis of the arithmetic discriminants of quadratic points on bi-elliptic curves of genus 2.
In a fibration we show that finiteness conditions on force the homology Serre spectral sequence with -coefficients to collapse at some finite term. This in particular implies that as graded vector spaces, is ``almost' isomorphic to . One consequence is the conclusion that is elliptic if and only if and are.
Let be a bounded symmetric domain in a complex vector space with a real form and be the real bounded symmetric domain in the real vector space . We construct the Berezin kernel and consider the Berezin transform on the -space on . The corresponding representation of is then unitarily equivalent to the restriction to of a scalar holomorphic discrete series of holomorphic functions on and is also called the canonical representation. We find the spectral symbol of the Berezin transform under the irreducible decomposition of the -space.
A standing conjecture in -cohomology says that every finite -complex is of -determinant class. In this paper, we prove this whenever the fundamental group belongs to a large class of groups containing, e.g., all extensions of residually finite groups with amenable quotients, all residually amenable groups, and free products of these. If, in addition, is -acyclic, we also show that the -determinant is a homotopy invariant -- giving a short and easy proof independent of and encompassing all known cases. Under suitable conditions we give new approximation formulas for -Betti numbers.
Let be a Banach function algebra on a compact space , and let be such that for any scalar the element is not a divisor of zero. We show that any complete norm topology on that makes the multiplication by continuous is automatically equivalent to the original norm topology of . Related results for general Banach spaces are also discussed.
Let be an odd prime number and let be an extraspecial -group. The purpose of the paper is to show that has no non-zero essential mod- cohomology (and in fact that is Cohen-Macaulay) if and only if and .
Let be a commutative ring and an ideal in which is locally generated by a regular sequence of length . Then, each f. g. projective -module has an -projective resolution of length . In this paper, we compute the homology of the -th Koszul complex associated with the homomorphism for all , if . This computation yields a new proof of the classical Adams-Riemann-Roch formula for regular closed immersions which does not use the deformation to the normal cone any longer. Furthermore, if , we compute the homology of the complex where and denote the functors occurring in the Dold-Kan correspondence.
In this paper, it is proved that for 2$"> and , if masses are located at fixed points in a plane, then there are only a finite number of -point central configurations that can be generated by positioning a given additional th mass in the same plane. The result is established by proving an equivalent isolation result for planar central configurations of five or more points. Other general properties of central configurations are established in the process. These relate to the amount of centrality lost when a point mass is perturbed and to derivatives associated with central configurations.
Let be a closed submanifold of a complete smooth Riemannian manifold and the total space of the unit normal bundle of . For each , let denote the distance from to the cut point of on the geodesic with the velocity vector The continuity of the function on is well known. In this paper we prove that is locally Lipschitz on which is bounded; in particular, if and are compact, then is globally Lipschitz on . Therefore, the canonical interior metric may be introduced on each connected component of the cut locus of and this metric space becomes a locally compact and complete length space.

The two main theorems proved here are as follows: If is a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, the identity component of the algebraic group of outer automorphisms of is invariant under derived equivalence. This invariance is obtained as a consequence of the following generalization of a result of Voigt. Namely, given an appropriate geometrization of the family of finite -module complexes with fixed sequence of dimensions and an ``almost projective' complex , there exists a canonical vector space embedding

We study the finite groups for which the set of irreducible complex character degrees consists of the two most extreme possible values, that is, and . We are easily reduced to finite -groups, for which we derive the following group theoretical characterization: they are the -groups such that is a square and whose only normal subgroups are those containing or contained in . By analogy, we also deal with -groups such that is not a square, and we prove that if and only if a similar property holds: for any , either or . The proof of these results requires a detailed analysis of the structure of the -groups with any of the conditions above on normal subgroups, which is interesting for its own sake. It is especially remarkable that these groups have small nilpotency class and that, if the nilpotency class is greater than , then the index of the centre is small, and in some cases we may even bound the order of .
For an nonnegative matrix , an isomorphism is obtained between the lattice of initial subsets (of ) for and the lattice of -invariant faces of the nonnegative orthant . Motivated by this isomorphism, we generalize some of the known combinatorial spectral results on a nonnegative matrix that are given in terms of its classes to results for a cone-preserving map on a polyhedral cone, formulated in terms of its invariant faces. In particular, we obtain the following extension of the famous Rothblum index theorem for a nonnegative matrix: If leaves invariant a polyhedral cone , then for each distinguished eigenvalue of for , there is a chain of distinct -invariant join-irreducible faces of , each containing in its relative interior a generalized eigenvector of corresponding to (referred to as semi-distinguished -invariant faces associated with ), where is the maximal order of distinguished generalized eigenvectors of corresponding to , but there is no such chain with more than members. We introduce the important new concepts of semi-distinguished -invariant faces, and of spectral pairs of faces associated with a cone-preserving map, and obtain several properties of a cone-preserving map that mostly involve these two concepts, when the underlying cone is polyhedral, perfect, or strictly convex and/or smooth, or is the cone of all real polynomials of degree not exceeding that are nonnegative on a closed interval. Plentiful illustrative examples are provided. Some open problems are posed at the end.

Let be the ring of (-linear) differential operators with coefficients from a regular commutative affine domain of Krull dimension which is the tensor product of two regular commutative affine domains of Krull dimension . Simple holonomic -modules are described. Let a -algebra be a regular affine commutative domain of Krull dimension and be the ring of differential operators with coefficients from . We classify (up to irreducible elements of a certain Euclidean domain) simple -modules (the field is not necessarily algebraically closed).
