We study the critical set C of the nonlinear differential operator F(u) = -u" + f(u) defined on a Sobolev space of periodic functions H^p(S^1), p >= 1. Let R^2_{xy} \subset R^3 be the plane z = 0 and, for n > 0, let cone_n be the cone x^2 +…

We study the Hilbert manifold structure on $T_{0}(1)$ -- the connected component of the identity of the Hilbert manifold T(1). We characterize points on $T_{0}(1)$ in terms of Bers and pre-Bers embeddings, and prove that the Grunsky…

We consider the Hodge Laplacian $\Delta$ on the Heisenberg group $H_n$, endowed with a left-invariant and U(n)-invariant Riemannian metric. For $0\le k\le 2n+1$, let $\Delta_k$ denote the Hodge Laplacian restricted to $k$-forms. Our first…

Let $U$ be an operator in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}_{0}$, and let $\mathcal{K}\subset\mathcal{H}_{0}$ be a closed and invariant subspace. Suppose there is a period-2 unitary operator $J$ in $\mathcal{H}_{0}$ such that $JUJ=U^*$, and $PJP…

We study the set ${\cal C}$ consisting of pairs of orthogonal projections $P,Q$ acting in a Hilbert space ${\cal H}$ such that $PQ$ is a compact operator. These pairs have a rich geometric structure which we describe here. They are parted…

Geodesic orbit spaces (or g.o. spaces) are defined as those homogeneous Riemannian spaces $(M=G/H,g)$ whose geodesics are orbits of one-parameter subgroups of $G$. The corresponding metric $g$ is called a geodesic orbit metric. We study the…

The paper is devoted to the study of geodesic orbit Riemannian spaces that could be characterize by the property that any geodesic is an orbit of a 1-parameter group of isometries. The main result is the classification of compact simply…

Let $A$ be a positive injective operator in a Hilbert space (\h, <,>), and denote by [,] the inner product defined by A: [f,g]=<Af,g>. A closed subspace $\s \subset \h$ is called A-compatible if there exists a closed complement for $\s$,…

Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space. Consider the ortho-Grassmann graph $\Gamma^{\perp}_{k}(H)$ whose vertices are $k$-dimensional subspaces of $H$ (projections of rank $k$) and two subspaces are connected by an edge in this graph if they…

Several unitarily invariant norm inequalities and numerical radius inequalities for Hilbert space operators are studied. We investigate some necessary and sufficient conditions for the parallelism of two bounded operators. For a finite rank…

Sato theory provides a correspondence between solutions to the KP hierarchy and points in an infinite dimensional Grassmannian. In this correspondence, flows generated infinitesimally by powers of the ``shift'' operator give time dependence…

We prove a version of the Hopf-Rinow-theorem with respect to path metrics on discrete spaces. The novel aspect is that we do not a priori assume local finiteness but isolate a local finiteness type condition, called essential local…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, $B(H)$ the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H,$ $U(B(H))$ the unitary group of $B(H)$ and ${\cal K}\subset B(H)$ the ideal of compact operators. Let $G$ be a…

The aim of this paper is the geometric study of the symplectic operators which are a perturbation of the identity by a Hilbert-Schmidt operator. This subgroup of the symplectic group was introduced in Pierre de la Harpe's classical book of…

Geodesic orbit spaces are those Riemannian homogeneous spaces (G/H,g) whose geodesics are orbits of one-parameter subgroups of G. We classify the simply connected geodesic orbit spaces where G is a compact Lie group of rank two. We prove…
