We study the unilateral shift (of arbitrary countable multiplicity) as a Hilbert module over the disc algebra and the associated extension groups. In relation with the problem of determining whether this module is projective, we consider a…
The dimension algebra of graded groups is introduced. With the help of known geometric results of extension theory that algebra induces all known results of the cohomological dimension theory. Elements of the algebra are equivalence classes…
A new elementary proof for a theorem of D. Burns and S. Krantz on the rigidity of the analytic self maps of the unit disc was recently discovered by L. Baracco, D. Zaitsev, and G. Zampieri. We use their argument to generalize Burns-Krantz…
When G is a region in the complex plane, compact composition operators on the uniform algebra of bounded analytic functions on G and the spectra of these operators were described by D. Swanton, Compact composition operators on B(D), Proc.…
Suppose that a metric space $X$ is the union of two metric subspaces $A$ and $B$ that embed into Euclidean space with distortions $D_A$ and $D_B$, respectively. We prove that then $X$ embeds into Euclidean space with a bounded distortion…
In the paper "Extensional PERs" by P. Freyd, P. Mulry, G. Rosolini and D. Scott, a category $\mathcal{C}$ of "pointed complete extensional PERs" and computable maps is introduced to provide an instance of an \emph{algebraically compact…
A holomorphic function $f$ on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ belongs to the class $\mathcal{U}_A(\mathbb{D})$ of Abel universal functions if the family $\{f_r: 0\leq r<1\}$ of its dilates $f_r(z):=f(rz)$ is dense in the space of continuous…
Scheme-theoretic methods are used to classify ternary quadratic forms with values in line bundles over arbitrary schemes and to canonically determine the isomorphisms between them. The association of a quadratic bundle to its even Clifford…
Let an $R$-body be the complement of the union of open balls of radius $R$ in $\mathbb{E}^d$. The $R$-hulloid of a closed not empty set $A$, the minimal $R$-body containing $A$, is investigated; if $A$ is the set of the vertices of a…
We show that every multilinear map between Euclidean spaces induces a unique, continuous, Minkowski multilinear map of the corresponding real cones of zonoids. Applied to the wedge product of the exterior algebra of a Euclidean space, this…
We prove that the groups of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms and diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb{R}^n$ are boundedly acyclic, in all regularities. This is the first full computation of the bounded cohomology of a transformation group that…
We introduce a compactification construction for abstract quasi-local C*-algebras over countable metric spaces equipped with an isometric group action which is functorial with respect to bounded spread isomorphisms. In $1$D, the…
I describe what is currently known, for $d \geq 5$, about the rational homotopy type of the group of diffeomorphisms of the $d$-disc relative to its boundary, and the closely related group of homeomorphisms of $d$-dimensional Euclidean…
The set \[ \Gamma {\stackrel{\rm def}{=}} \{(z+w,zw):|z|\leq 1,|w|\leq 1\} \subset {\mathbb{C}}^2 \] has intriguing complex-geometric properties; it has a 3-parameter group of automorphisms, its distinguished boundary is a ruled surface…
We study the spaces of $(d + d^c)$-harmonic forms and $(d + d^\Lambda)$-harmonic forms, the natural generalization of the spaces of Bott-Chern harmonic forms, resp. symplectic harmonic forms from complex, resp. symplectic, manifolds to…
The Ahlfors-Weill extension of a conformal mapping of the disk is generalized to the lift of a harmonic mapping of the disk to a minimal surface, producing homeomorphic and quasiconformal extensions. The extension is obtained by a…
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth real analytic submanifold of a complex manifold $X$. We establish and study the link between the following 3 subjects: 1) topological properties of smooth families of attached analytic discs, the manifold $\Omega$…
There is a universal constant $0<r_0<1$ with the following property. Suppose that $f$ is an analytic function on the unit disk $\D$, and suppose that there exists a constant $M>0$ so that the Euclidean area, counting multiplicity, of the…
We study expansive homeomorphisms of a compact metric space $X$ through the lens of the commutative $C^*$-algebra $C(X)$ of continuous complex-valued functions, viewed as observables of the system. We introduce the notion of expansive…
This paper concerns the compactness and separability properties of the normed Boolean algebras (N.B.A.) with respect to topology generated by a distance equal to the square root of a measure of symmetric difference between two elements. The…
