The L ^p -cohomology in degree 1 of Riemannian homogeneous spaces is computed. It turns out that reduced cohomology does not vanish exactly for spaces quasiisometric to negatively curved homogeneous spaces.      

An axiom system for metasymplectic spaces

Metasymplectic spaces are geometries representing Tits' weak buildings of Type F ₄. For metasymplectic and polar spaces an axiom system is given that characterizes them in terms of points and lines.     

Homogeneous spaces with polar isotropy

 We consider homogeneous spaces G/K with G a simple compact Lie group, endowed with an arbitrary G-invariant Riemannian metric. We classify those spaces where the action of K on G/K is polar and show that such spaces are locally symmetric. Moreover we give a classification of pairs (G,K) with G compact semisimple such that K has polar linear isotropy representation.

Small resolutions and non-liftable Calabi-Yau threefolds

We use properties of small resolutions of the ordinary double point in dimension three to construct smooth non-liftable Calabi-Yau threefolds. In particular, we construct a smooth projective Calabi-Yau threefold over \mathbbF₃{\mathbb{F}_3} that does not lift to characteristic zero and a smooth projective Calabi-Yau threefold over \mathbbF₅{\mathbb{F}_5} having an obstructed deformation. We also construct many examples of smooth Calabi-Yau algebraic spaces over \mathbbF_p{\mathbb{F}_p} that do not lift to algebraic spaces in characteristic zero.     

Maximally mobile Davies metric spaces

The spaces whose linear elements are given by a homogeneous function of degree two with respect to the direction arguments are studied. The maximal order of the group of motionsG _r (r=n(n–1)/2+2) in Davies spaces is determined. A tensor characterization of maximally mobile spaces is given.Translated from Ukrainskií Geometricheskií Sbornik, Issue 29, 1986, pp. 47–54.     

Decomposable symmetric mappings between infinite-dimensional spaces

Decomposable mappings from the space of symmetric k-fold tensors over E, , to the space of k-fold tensors over F, , are those linear operators which map nonzero decomposable elements to nonzero decomposable elements. We prove that any decomposable mapping is induced by an injective linear operator between the spaces on which the tensors are defined. Moreover, if the decomposable mapping belongs to a given operator ideal, then so does its inducing operator. This result allows us to classify injective linear operators between spaces of homogeneous approximable polynomials and between spaces of nuclear polynomials which map rank-1 polynomials to rank-1 polynomials.     

Study of the cardinalities of linear spaces

The paper discusses the relation between the cardinalities of linear spaces over a number field F and the cardinality of F, and obtains the result that the cardinality of a countable dimensional linear space V(F) equals the cardinality of the number field F. Some examples are given for the cardinality of a general infinite dimensional linear space.     

Tight sets,weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-covers,weighted <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-ovoids,and minihypers

Minihypers are substructures of projective spaces introduced to study linear codes meeting the Griesmer bound. Recently, many results in finite geometry were obtained by applying characterization results on minihypers (De Beule et al. 16:342–349, 2008; Govaerts and Storme 4:279–286, 2004; Govaerts et al. 28:659–672, 2002). In this paper, using characterization results on certain minihypers, we present new results on tight sets in classical finite polar spaces and weighted m-covers, and on weighted m-ovoids of classical finite generalized quadrangles. The link with minihypers gives us characterization results of i-tight sets in terms of generators and Baer subgeometries contained in the Hermitian and symplectic polar spaces, and in terms of generators for the quadratic polar spaces. We also present extendability results on partial weighted m-ovoids and partial weighted m-covers, having small deficiency, to weighted m-covers and weighted m-ovoids of classical finite generalized quadrangles. As a particular application, we prove in an alternative way the extendability of 53-, 54-, and 55-caps of PG(5,3), contained in a non-singular elliptic quadric Q⁻(5,3), to 56-caps contained in this elliptic quadric Q⁻(5,3).      

Semigroups of linear operators on p-Fréchet spaces, 0 < p < 1

We develop the beginning of a theory of semigroups of linear operators on p-Fréchet spaces, 0 < p < 1 (which are non-locally convex F-spaces), and give some applications.     

Rate independent Kurzweil processes

The Kurzweil integral technique is applied to a class of rate independent processes with convex energy and discontinuous inputs. We prove existence, uniqueness, and continuous data dependence of solutions in BV spaces. It is shown that in the context of elastoplasticity, the Kurzweil solutions coincide with natural limits of viscous regularizations when the viscosity coefficient tends to zero. The discontinuities produce an additional positive dissipation term, which is not homogeneous of degree one.      

Two-Wavelet Localization Operators on Homogeneous Spaces and Their Traces

We define two-wavelet localization operators in the setting of homogeneous spaces. We prove that they are in the trace class S ₁ and give a trace formula for them. Then we show that two-wavelet operators on locally compact and Hausdorff groups endowed with unitary and square-integrable representations, general Daubechies operators and two-wavelet multipliers can be seen as two-wavelet localization operators on appropriate homogeneous spaces. Thus we give a unifying view concerning the three classes of linear operators. We also show that two-wavelet localization operators on , considered as a homogeneous space, under the action of the affine group U are two-wavelet multipliers      

Isometries between spaces of homogeneous polynomials

We derive Banach-Stone theorems for spaces of homogeneous polynomials. We show that every isometric isomorphism between the spaces of homogeneous approximable polynomials on real Banach spaces E and F is induced by an isometric isomorphism of E^′ onto F^′. With an additional geometric condition we obtain the analogous result in the complex case. Isometries between spaces of homogeneous integral polynomials and between the spaces of all n-homogeneous polynomials are also investigated.     

Boundedness of commutators on homogeneous Herz spaces

Continuous homogeneous selections of set-valued metric generalized inverses of linear operators in Banach spaces

In this paper,continuous homogeneous selections for the set-valued metric generalized inverses T of linear operators T in Banach spaces are investigated by means of the methods of geometry of Banach spaces.Necessary and sufficient conditions for bounded linear operators T to have continuous homogeneous selections for the set-valued metric generalized inverses T are given.The results are an answer to the problem posed by Nashed and Votruba.     

Second-Order Epi-Derivatives of Composite Functionals

We compute two-sided second-order epi-derivatives for certain composite functionals f=gF where F is a C ¹ mapping between two Banach spaces X and Y, and g is a convex extended real-valued function on Y. These functionals include most essential objectives associated with smooth constrained minimization problems on Banach spaces. Our proof relies on our development of a formula for the second-order upper epi-derivative that mirrors a formula for a second-order lower epi-derivative from [7], and the two-sided results we obtain promise to support a more precise sensitivity analysis of parameterized optimization problems than has been previously possible.     

To what extent does the dual Banach spaceE′ determine the polynomials overE?

We show that under conditions of regularity, ifE′ is isomorphic toF′, then the spaces of homogeneous polynomials overE andF are isomorphic. Some subspaces of polynomials more closely related to the structure of dual spaces (weakly continuous, integral, extendible) are shown to be isomorphic in full generality.     

Differential étale extensions and differential modules over differential rings

This paper studies differential square zero extensions and differential modules of a commutative differential algebra R over a differential field F where the field of constants of F is algebraically closed and of characteristic 0. All elements of R and the differential R modules and algebras considered are assumed to satisfy linear homogeneous differential equations over F. For R differentially simple, we describe the invectives, and, using that all considered differential modules are R flat, provide a criterion for all square zero extensions to be differentially split.     

Leggett-Williams norm-type theorems for coincidences

We study the existence of positive solutions to the operator equation Lx = Nx, where L is a linear Fredholm mapping of index zero and N is a nonlinear operator. Using the properties of cones in Banach spaces and Leray-Schauder degree for completely continuous operators, k-set contractions and condensing mappings, we obtain some refinements of the results established in [3] and [14].

Isometries of JB-algebras

A bijective linear mapping between two JB-algebrasA andB is an isometry if and only if it commutes with the Jordan triple products ofA andB. Other algebraic characterizations of isometries between JB-algebras are given. Derivations on a JB-algebraA are those bounded linear operators onA with zero numerical range. For JB-algebras of selfadjoint operators we have: IfH andK are left Hilbert spaces of dimension ≥3 over the same fieldF (the real, complex, or quaternion numbers), then every surjective real linear isometryf fromS(H) ontoS(K) is of the formf(x)=UoxoU ⁻¹ forx inS(H), whereτ is a real-linear automorphism ofF andU is a real linear isometry fromH ontoK withU(λh)=τ(λ)U(h) for λ inF andh inH.

Two operators related to Marcinkiewicz integrals

In this paper, the authors consider the boundedness of generalized higher commutator of Marcinkiewicz integral μΩ^b, multilinear Marcinkiewicz integral μΩ^A and its variation μΩ^A on Herz-type Hardy spaces, here Ω is homogeneous of degree zero and satisfies a class of L^s-Dini condition. And as a special case, they also get the boundedness of commutators of Marcinkiewicz integrals on Herz-type Hardy spaces.
