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.
Extending results of a number of authors, we prove that if is the unipotent radical of an -split solvable epimorphic subgroup of a real algebraic group which is generated by unipotents, then the action of on is uniquely ergodic for every cocompact lattice in . This gives examples of uniquely ergodic and minimal two-dimensional flows on homogeneous spaces of arbitrarily high dimension. Our main tools are the Ratner classification of ergodic invariant measures for the action of a unipotent subgroup on a homogeneous space, and a simple lemma (the `Cone Lemma') about representations of epimorphic subgroups.
Let be an open set and let denote the class of real analytic functions on . It is proved that for every surjective linear partial differential operator and every family depending holomorphically on there is a solution family depending on in the same way such that The result is a consequence of a characterization of Fréchet spaces such that the class of ``weakly' real analytic -valued functions coincides with the analogous class defined via Taylor series. An example shows that the analogous assertions need not be valid if is replaced by another set.
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.
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 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 locally compact Hausdorff space. We define a quasi-measure in , a quasi-integral on , and a quasi-integral on . We show that all quasi-integrals on are bounded, continuity properties of the quasi-integral on , representation of quasi-integrals on in terms of quasi-measures, and unique extension of quasi-integrals on to .
If and are linear operators acting between Banach spaces, we show that compactness of relative to does not in general imply that has -bound zero. We do, however, give conditions under which the above implication is valid.
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 a field and a connected quiver. In this note it is proved that the category of finite dimensional representations of over has almost split sequences if and only if either is without oriented cycles or consists of a single oriented cycle.
We prove that a Banach space is uniformly smooth if and only if, for every -valued bounded function on the unit sphere of , the intrinsic numerical range of is equal to the closed convex hull of the spatial numerical range of .
It is shown that the almost Mathieu operators of the type where is real and is a rational multiple of and an orthonormal basis for a Hilbert space, is not invertible.
Let be an integral domain. A saturated multiplicatively closed subset of is a splitting set if each nonzero may be written as where and for all . We show that if is a splitting set in , then is a splitting set in , a multiplicatively closed subset of , and that is a splitting set in is an lcm splitting set of , i.e., is a splitting set of with the further property that is principal for all and . Several new characterizations and applications of splitting sets are given.
Given a topological system on a -compact Hausdorff space and its factor we show the existence of a largest topological factor containing such that for each -invariant measure , . When a relative variational principle holds, .
