We characterize the corings whose category of comodules has a generating set of small projective comodules in terms of the (non commutative) descent theory. In order to extricate the structure of these corings, we give a generalization of…

It is an old conjecture, that finite $H$-spaces are homotopy equivalent to manifolds. Here we prove that this conjecture is true for loop spaces. Actually, we show that every quasi finite loop space is equivalent to a stably parallelizable…

We show that in analytic sub-Riemannian manifolds of rank 2 satisfying a commutativity condition spiral-like curves are not length minimizing near the center of the spiral. The proof relies upon the delicate construction of a competing…

The multiplicity of the lowest eigenvalue E of the so-called non-commutative harmonic oscillator Q(\alpha,\beta) is studied. It is shown that E is simple for \alpha and \beta in some region.

We give a general construction for right conjugacy closed loops, using $GL(2,q)$ for $q$ a prime power. Under certain conditions, the loops constructed are simple, giving the first general construction for finite, simple right conjugacy…

We consider II$_1$ factors $M$ which can be realized as inductive limits of subfactors, $N_n \nearrow M$, having spectral gap in $M$ and satisfying the bi-commutant condition $(N_n'\cap M)'\cap M=N_n$. Examples are the enveloping algebras…

In this paper we give conditions under which a topological semigroup can be embedded algebraically and topologically into a compact topological group. We prove that every feebly compact regular first countable cancellative commutative…

We consider a class of subcritical superprocesses $(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ with general spatial motions and general branching mechanisms. We study the asymptotic behaviors of $\mathbf Q_{t,r}$, the distribution of $X_t$ conditioned on $X_{t+r}$…

Noncommutative algebra in planar quantum mechanics is shown to follow from 't Hooft's recent analysis on dissipation and quantization. The noncommutativity in the coordinates or in the momenta of a charged particle in a magnetic field with…

Let $\M$ be a complete, connected noncompact manifold with bounded geometry. Under a condition near infinity, we prove that the Log Sobolev functional (\ref{logfanhan}) has an extremal function decaying exponentially near infinity. We also…

We present a non-linear inequality that completely characterizes the set of correlation functions obtained from bipartite quantum systems, for the case in which measurements on each subsystem can be chosen between two arbitrary dichotomic…

In this paper we investigate the existence of solutions for a system consisting of two inequalities of variational type. Each inequality is formulated in terms of a nonlinear bifunction $\chi$ and $\psi$, respectively and a coupling…

We examine, for $-1<q<1$, $q$-Gaussian processes, i.e. families of operators (non-commutative random variables) $X_t=a_t+a_t^*$ -- where the $a_t$ fulfill the $q$-commutation relations $a_sa_t^*-qa_t^*a_s=c(s,t)\cdot \id$ for some…

The minimal surface equation $Q$ in the second order contact bundle of $R^3$, modulo translations, is provided with a complex structure and a canonical vector-valued holomorphic differential form $Omega$ on $Q\0$. The minimal surfaces $M$…

Non-associative finite invertible loops (NAFIL) are loops whose every element has a unique two-sided inverse. Not much is known about the class of NAFIL loops which includes the familiar IP (Inverse Property), Moufang, and Bol loops. Our…

A loop $(X,\circ)$ is said to be a Bruck loop if it satisfies the (right) Bol identity $((z\circ x)\circ y)\circ x = z\circ ((x\circ y)\circ x)$ and the automorphic inverse property $(x\circ y)^{-1}=x^{-1}\circ y^{-1}$. If $X$ is a finite…

The aim of this paper is to study the probability that the commutator of an arbitrarily chosen pair of elements, each from two different subrings of a finite non-commutative ring equals a given element of that ring. We obtain several…

Suppose that a compact quantum group Q acts faithfully and isomet- rically (in the sense of [10]) on a smooth compact, oriented, connected Riemannian manifold M . If the manifold is stably parallelizable then it is shown that the compact…

This is a the first in a series of two articles devoted to the question of local solvability of doubly characteristic second order differential operators. For a large class of such operators, we show that local solvability at a given point…

Let $A$ be a commutative noetherian ring, let $\mathfrak a$ be an ideal of $A$. In this paper, we extend Hartshorne's characterization of cofinite complexes to more general classes of rings. We also determine conditions under which…
