Continuous local martingales and stochastic integration in UMD Banach spaces

Recently, van Neerven, Weis and the author, constructed a theory for stochastic integration of UMD Banach space valued processes. Here the authors use a (cylindrical) Brownian motion as an integrator. In this note we show how one can extend these results to the case where the integrator is an arbitrary real-valued continuous local martingale. We give several characterizations of integrability and prove a version of the Itô isometry, the Burkholder–Davis–Gundy inequality, the Itô formula and the martingale representation theorem.     

Intersection theory on and elliptic Gromov-Witten invariants

We find a new relation among codimension algebraic cycles in the moduli space , and use this to calculate the elliptic Gromov-Witten invariants of projective spaces and .

     

Polynomial continuity on

A mapping between Banach spaces is said to be polynomially continuous if its restriction to any bounded set is uniformly continuous for the weak polynomial topology. A Banach space has property (RP) if given two bounded sequences , we have that for every polynomial on whenever for every polynomial on ; i.e., the restriction of every polynomial on to each bounded set is uniformly sequentially continuous for the weak polynomial topology. We show that property (RP) does not imply that every scalar valued polynomial on must be polynomially continuous.

     

Convexity and Haar null sets

It is shown that for every closed, convex and nowhere dense subset of a superreflexive Banach space there exists a Radon probability measure on so that for all . In particular, closed, convex, nowhere dense sets in separable superreflexive Banach spaces are Haar null. This is unlike the situation in separable nonreflexive Banach spaces, where there always exists a closed convex nowhere dense set which is not Haar null.

On The Homotopy Type of

We consider the homotopy type of classifying spaces , where is a finite -group, and we study the question whether or not the mod cohomology of , as an algebra over the Steenrod algebra together with the associated Bockstein spectral sequence, determine the homotopy type of . This article is devoted to producing some families of finite 2-groups where cohomological information determines the homotopy type of .

     

On the smoothness of the moduli space of mathematical instanton bundles

In this paper we prove that the moduli spaces MI _2n+1(k) of mathematical instanton bundles on ²ⁿ⁺¹ with quantum number k are singular for n 2 and k 3 ,giving a positive answer to a conjecture made by Ancona and Ottaviani in 1993.     

Λ0-Nuclear Operators and Λ0-Nuclear Spaces in p-adic Analysis

For a Köthe sequence space, the classes of ₀-nuclear spaces and spaces with the ₀-property are introduced and studied and the relation between them is investigated. Also, we show that, for ₀c ₀, these classes of spaces are in general different from the corresponding ones for ₀=c ₀, which have been extensively studied in the non-archimedean literature (see, for example, [1]–[6]).     

Functions related to convexity and smoothness of normed spaces

We introduce a few functions related to convexity and smoothness of normed spaces. Those functions turn out to be moduli of convexity or smoothness or play an intermediate role. We calculate the exact formulas for introduced functions in some classical Banach spaces. An application to geometry of normed spaces is also indicated.
