The multistsochastic Monge--Kantorovich problem on the product $X = \prod_{i=1}^n X_i$ of $n$ spaces is a generalization of the multimarginal Monge--Kantorovich problem. For a given integer number $1 \le k<n$ we consider the minimization…

Let X be a linear space over K, K=R or K=C and let for n>1 \rho_i be s-convex semimodular defined on X for any i\in{1,...,n-1}. Put \rho=\max_{1\leq i \leq n-1}\{\rho_i\} and X_{\rho}= { x \in X: \rho(dx) < \infty for some d > 0 }. In this…

Building on work of Baldwin and Beaudoin, assuming Martin's Axiom, we construct a zero-dimensional separable metrizable space $X$ such that $X$ is countable dense homogeneous while $X^2$ is not. It follows from results of Hru\v{s}\'ak and…

Let $V$ be an inner product space, and $x, y \in V$; the conjecture is made that, for any $p \in [1, \infty]$, the function $d_p(x, y):=\|x-y\|/(\|x\|^p+ \|y\|^p)^{1/p}$ is a distance on $V$.

Let $(G,G_1)$ be a symmetric pair of holomorphic type, and we consider a pair of Hermitian symmetric spaces $D_1=G_1/K_1\subset D=G/K$, realized as bounded symmetric domains in complex vector spaces $\mathfrak{p}^+_1\subset\mathfrak{p}^+$…

Generalized $\mathbf{m}$-Gelfand-Shilov-Roumieu vector spaces $\mathcal{S}_{\mathbf{m}}(\mathbf{X})$ are introduced. Here $\mathbf{m} = (m^{(1)},...,m^{(n)})$, $\mathbf{X}=(X_{1},...,X_{n})$ and $m^{(1)},...,m^{(n)}$ are sequences of…

The lack of an inner product structure in Banach spaces yields the motivation to introduce a semi-inner product with a more general axiom system, one missing the requirement for symmetry, unlike the one determing a Hilbert space. We use it…

The Schur product of two complex m x n matrices is their entry wise product. We show that an extremal element X in the convex set of m x n complex matrices of Schur multiplier norm at most 1 satisfies the inequality rank(X) =< (m +n)^(1/2)…

A metric space is plastic if all its non-expansive bijections are isometries. We prove three main results: (1) every countable dense subspace of a normed space is not plastic, (2) every $k$-crowded separable metric space contains a plastic…

Let $P_N(R)$ be the space of all real polynomials in $N$ variables with the usual inner product $<, >$ on it, given by integrating over the unit sphere. We start by deriving an explicit combinatorial formula for the bilinear form…

Let M and N be Orlicz functions. We establish some combinatorial inequalities and show that the product spaces l^n_M(l^n_N) are uniformly isomorphic to subspaces of L_1 if M and N are "separated" by a function t^r, 1<r<2.

A colored space is the pair $(X,r)$ of a set $X$ and a function $r$ whose domain is $\binom{X}{2}$. Let $(X,r)$ be a finite colored space and $Y,Z\subseteq X$. We shall write $Y\simeq_r Z$ if there exists a bijection $f:Y\to Z$ such that…

Building on work of Terada, we prove that h-homogeneity is productive in the class of zero-dimensional spaces. Then, by generalizing a result of Motorov, we show that for every non-empty zero-dimensional space $X$ there exists a non-empty…

Let $B_Y$ denote the unit ball of a normed linear space $Y$. A symmetric, bounded, closed, convex set $A$ in a finite dimensional normed linear space $X$ is called a {\it sufficient enlargement} for $X$ if, for an arbitrary isometric…

Let $(X,d,p)$ be a pointed metric space. A pretangent space to $X$ at $p$ is a metric space consisting of some equivalence classes of convergent to $p$ sequences $(x_n), x_n \in X,$ whose degree of convergence is comparable with a given…

Given some non-Archimedean field $\mathbb{K}$ and some $\mathbb{K}$-linear space $X$, the usual way to define a norm over $X$ involves the {\em ultrametric inequality} $\|x+y\|\leq\max\{\|x\|,\|y\|\}$. In this note we will try to analyse…

We first prove that for every metrizable space $X$, for every closed subset $F$ whose complement is zero-dimensional, the space $X$ can be embedded into a product space of the closed subset $F$ and a metrizable zero-dimensional space as a…

In quantum mechanics, physical states are represented by rays in Hilbert space $\mathscr H$, which is a vector space imbued by an inner product $\langle\,|\,\rangle$, whose physical meaning arises as the overlap $\langle\phi|\psi\rangle$…

In this paper, we consider the product space for two processes with independent increments under nonlinear expectations. By introducing a discretization method, we construct a nonlinear expectation under which the given two processes can be…

We say that a mapping $f: X \rightarrow Y$ between two real normed spaces is a phase-isometry if it satisfies the functional equation \begin{eqnarray*} \{\|f(x)+f(y)\|, \|f(x)-f(y)\|\}=\{\|x+y\|, \|x-y\|\} \quad (x,y\in X).\end{eqnarray*} A…
