The number of Hall -subgroups of a -separable group

We observe a simple formula to compute the number of Hall -subgroups of a -separable finite group in terms of only the action of a fixed Hall -subgroup of on a set of normal -sections of . As a consequence, we obtain that divides whenever is a subgroup of a finite -separable group . This generalizes a recent result of Navarro. In addition, our method gives an alternative proof of Navarro's result.

     

``Lebesgue measure' on , II

Let be the set of real numbers, and define . We construct a complete measure space where the -algebra contains the Borel subsets of , and is a translation-invariant measure such that for any measurable rectangle , if , then , where is Lebesgue measure on . The measure is not -finite. We prove three Fubini theorems, namely, the Fubini theorem, the mean Fubini-Jensen theorem, and the pointwise Fubini-Jensen theorem. Finally, as an application of the measure , we construct, via selfadjoint operators on , a ``Schrödinger model' of the canonical commutation relations: , , .

For a subset of whose elements satisfy a certain condition on linear independence, let be a set of maximal ideals of such that is a -basis of over . We shall characterize this set in a geometrical aspect.

     

Topology of three-manifolds with positive -scalar curvature

Consider an -dimensional smooth Riemannian manifold with a given smooth measure on it. We call such a triple a Riemannian measure space. Perelman introduced a variant of scalar curvature in his recent work on solving Poincaré's conjecture , where and is the scalar curvature of . In this note, we study the topological obstruction for the -stable minimal submanifold with positive -scalar curvature in dimension three under the setting of manifolds with density.

     

Algebraic isomorphisms and -subspace lattices

The class of -lattices was originally defined in the second author's thesis and subsequently by Longstaff, Nation, and Panaia. A subspace lattice on a Banach space which is also a -lattice is called a -subspace lattice, abbreviated JSL. It is demonstrated that every single element of has rank at most one. It is also shown that has the strong finite rank decomposability property. Let and be subspace lattices that are also JSL's on the Banach spaces and , respectively. The two properties just referred to, when combined, show that every algebraic isomorphism between and preserves rank. Finally we prove that every algebraic isomorphism between and is quasi-spatial.

As an application, we prove the existence of principally polarized abelian varieties over of dimension and -rank such that .

     

Compact perturbations of -accretive operators in Banach spaces

This paper continues a discussion that arose twenty years ago, concerning the perturbation of an -accretive operator by a compact mapping in Banach spaces. Indeed, if is -accretive and is compact, then the boundary condition for and implies that is in the closure of the range of . Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this result is the proof itself, which does not appeal to the classical degree theory argument used for this type of problem.

Local isometries of

In this paper we study the structure of local isometries on . We show that when is first countable and is uniformly convex and the group of isometries of is algebraically reflexive, the range of a local isometry contains all compact operators. When is also uniformly smooth and the group of isometries of is algebraically reflexive, we show that a local isometry whose adjoint preserves extreme points is a -module map.

Weak properties of weighted convolution algebras

Suppose that is a weighted convolution algebra on with the weight normalized so that the corresponding space of measures is the dual space of the space of continuous functions. Suppose that is a continuous nonzero homomorphism, where is also a convolution algebra. If is norm dense in , we show that is (relatively) weak dense in , and we identify the norm closure of with the convergence set for a particular semigroup. When is weak continuous it is enough for to be weak dense in . We also give sufficient conditions and characterizations of weak continuity of . In addition, we show that, for all nonzero in , the sequence converges weak to 0. When is regulated, converges to 0 in norm.

On embeddings of full amalgamated free product C-algebras

We examine the question of when the -homomorphism of full amalgamated free product C-algebras, arising from compatible inclusions of C-algebras , and , is an embedding. Results giving sufficient conditions for to be injective, as well as classes of examples where fails to be injective, are obtained. As an application, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the full amalgamated free product of finite-dimensional C-algebras to be residually finite dimensional.

Polynomials with roots in for all

Let be a monic polynomial in with no rational roots but with roots in for all , or equivalently, with roots mod for all . It is known that cannot be irreducible but can be a product of two or more irreducible polynomials, and that if is a product of irreducible polynomials, then its Galois group must be a union of conjugates of proper subgroups. We prove that for any , every finite solvable group that is a union of conjugates of proper subgroups (where all these conjugates have trivial intersection) occurs as the Galois group of such a polynomial, and that the same result (with ) holds for all Frobenius groups. It is also observed that every nonsolvable Frobenius group is realizable as the Galois group of a geometric, i.e. regular, extension of .
