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.
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 .
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.
Fix integers with k>0$"> and . Let be an integral projective curve with and a rank torsion free sheaf on which is a flat limit of a family of locally free sheaves on . Here we prove the existence of a rank subsheaf of such that . We show that for every there is an integral projective curve not Gorenstein, and a rank 2 torsion free sheaf on with no rank 1 subsheaf with . We show the existence of torsion free sheaves on non-Gorenstein projective curves with other pathological properties.
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.
The ``implicit" eigenvalue problem, with in place of is also considered. The existence of continuous branches of eigenvectors of infinite length is investigated, and a Fredholm alternative in the spirit of Necas is given for a pair of homogeneous operators No compactness assumptions have been made in most of the results. The degree theories of Browder and Skrypnik are used, as well as the degree theories of the authors involving densely defined perturbations of maximal monotone operators. Applications to nonlinear partial differential equations are included.
Several properties of Anick's spaces are established which give a retraction of Anick's off if and . The proof is alternate to and more immediate than the two proofs of Neisendorfer's.
We prove the uniqueness of Riemann solutions in the class of entropy solutions in for the system of compressible Euler equations, under usual assumptions on the equation of state for the pressure which imply strict hyperbolicity of the system and genuine nonlinearity of the first and third characteristic families. In particular, if the Riemann solutions consist of at most rarefaction waves and contact discontinuities, we show the global -stability of the Riemann solutions even in the class of entropy solutions in with arbitrarily large oscillation for the system. We apply our framework established earlier to show that the uniqueness of Riemann solutions implies their inviscid asymptotic stability under perturbation of the Riemann initial data, as long as the corresponding solutions are in and have local bounded total variation satisfying a natural condition on its growth with time. No specific reference to any particular method for constructing the entropy solutions is made. Our uniqueness result for Riemann solutions can easily be extended to entropy solutions , piecewise Lipschitz in , for any 0$">.
Let be a nilpotent Lie algebra, over a field of characteristic zero, and its universal enveloping algebra. In this paper we study: (1) the prime ideal structure of related to finitely generated -modules , and in particular the set of associated primes for such (note that now is equal to the set of annihilator primes for ); (2) the problem of nontriviality for the modules when is a (maximal) prime of , and in particular when is the augmentation ideal of . We define the support of , as a natural generalization of the same notion from commutative theory, and show that it is the object of primary interest when dealing with (2). We also introduce and study the reduced localization and the reduced support, which enables to better understand the set . We prove the following generalization of a stability result given by W. Casselman and M. S. Osborne in the case when , as in the theorem, are abelian. We also present some of its interesting consequences.

Let be a -module which is finitely generated as an -module. Then every annihilator prime of , when is regarded as a -module, is -stable for the adjoint action of on .
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 .
The main result of this paper is that the variety of presentations of a general cubic form in variables as a sum of cubes is isomorphic to the Fano variety of lines of a cubic -fold , in general different from .
A general surface of genus determines uniquely a pair of cubic -folds: the apolar cubic and the dual Pfaffian cubic (or for simplicity and ). As Beauville and Donagi have shown, the Fano variety of lines on the cubic is isomorphic to the Hilbert scheme of length two subschemes of . The first main result of this paper is that parametrizes the variety of presentations of the cubic form , with , as a sum of cubes, which yields an isomorphism between and . Furthermore, we show that sets up a correspondence between and . The main result follows by a deformation argument.
