In this paper, we study the following problem: Let $D\geq 2$ and let $E\subset \mathbb R^D$ be finite satisfying certain conditions. Suppose that we are given a map $\phi:E\to \mathbb R^D$ with $\phi$ a small distortion on $E$. How can one…

We study when a map between two subsets of a Boolean domain W can be extended to an automorphism of W. Under many hypotheses, if the underlying Boolean algebra is complete or if the sets are finite or Boolean domains, the necessary and…

The Whitney near extension problem for finite sets in $\mathbb R^d,\, d\geq 2$ asks the following: Let $\phi:E\to \mathbb R^d$ be a near distortion on a finite set $E\subset \mathbb R^d$ with certain geometry. How to decide whether $\phi$…

Given a compact of ${\bf R}^n$, there is always a doubling measure having it as its support. We use this fact to construct an integral operator that extends differentiable functions defined on any compact set of ${\bf R}^n$ to the whole of…

In a previous paper [CG], we showed how one could generalize Taylor-Wiles modularity lifting theorems [Wil95, TW95] to contexts beyond those in which the automorphic forms in question arose from the middle degree cohomology of Shimura…

In this paper, we study the following problem. Let $D\geq 2$, $S\subset \mathbb R^D$ be finite and let $\phi:S\to \mathbb R^D$ with $\phi$ a small distortion on $S$. We solve the Whitney extension-interpolation-alignment problem of how to…

We construct and develop a similitude version of exceptional theta correspondences and show that the Howe duality theorem follows from that for the "isometry" case. We also extend basic tools such as the seesaw identity associated to seesaw…

A theorem by Wolff states that weights defined on a measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and satisfying a Muckenhoupt-type condition can be extended into the whole space as Muckenhoupt weights of the same class. We give a complete and…

Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the existence of extended Schmidt decompositions, with more than two subspaces.

In this announcement we consider the following problem. Let $n,m\geq 1$, $U\subset\mathbb R^n$ open. In this paper we provide a sharp solution to the following Whitney distortion extension problems: (a) Let $\phi:U\to \mathbb R^n$ be a…

We first prove a version of Tietze-Urysohn's theorem for proper functions taking values in non-negative real numbers defined on $\sigma$-compact locally compact Hausdorff spaces. As its application, we prove an extension theorem of proper…

We consider the problem of constructing a weakly-continuous mapping extending continuous mapping defined on a dense set of a topological space to the entire space. Theorem on necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such an…

We prove that every isometry of between (not-necessarily orthogonal) summands of a unimodular quadratic space over a semiperfect ring can be extended an isometry of the whole quadratic space. The same result was proved by Reiter for the…

We study extensions and generalizations of the Schmidt Subspace Theorem in various settings. In particular, we prove results for algebraic points of bounded degree, giving a sharp version of Schmidt's theorem for quadratic points in the…

We propose an extension of a result by Repetowicz et al. about Wick's theorem and its applications: we first show that Wick's theorem can be extended to the uniform distribution on the sphere and then to the whole class of elliptical…

Let $K$ be a number field, and let $F$ be a symmetric bilinear form in $2N$ variables over $K$. Let $Z$ be a subspace of $K^N$. A classical theorem of Witt states that the bilinear space $(Z,F)$ can be decomposed into an orthogonal sum of…

Let $X=C[0,1]$, and $Y$ be an arbitrary Banach space. Consider a collection of open segments $\{V_i \}\subset X$. Suppose the map $f: \cup_i V_i \to Y$ has $q$ bounded Fr\'echet derivatives ($q=0,1,...,\infty$), and $f$ and all its…

Two fields are Witt equivalent if their Witt rings of symmetric bilinear forms are isomorphic. Witt equivalent fields can be understood to be fields having the same quadratic form theory. The behavior of finite fields, local fields, global…

Characteristic classes of Schubert varieties can be used to study the geometry and the combinatorics of homogeneous spaces. We prove a relation between elliptic classes of Schubert varieties on a generalized full flag variety and those on…

Let $H$ be an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal G}_{\infty}(H)$ be the set of all closed subspaces of $H$ whose dimension and codimension both are infinite. We investigate (not necessarily surjective)…
