It is known that pure row contractions with one-dimensional defect spaces can be classified up to unitary equivalence by compressions of the standard $d$-shift acting on the full Fock space. Upon settling for a softer relation than unitary…
Several new characterizations of Banach spaces containing a subspace isomorphic to $\ell^1$, are obtained. These are applied to the question of when $\ell^1$ embeds in the injective tensor product of two Banach spaces.
A class of supersymmetric gauge theories arising from M2-branes probing Calabi-Yau 4-folds which are cones over smooth toric Fano 3-folds is investigated. For each model, the toric data of the mesonic moduli space is derived using the…
In the literature surrounding the theory of Banach spaces, considerable effort has been invested in exploring the conditions on a Banach space X that characterise X as being an inner product space or as a linearly isomorphic copy of a…
(1) We show that if a presentation of the trivial group is "hard to trivialize", in the sense that lots of Tietze moves are necessary to transform it into the trivial presentation, then the associated presentation complex (which is a…
The goal of this paper is to introduce a process that generates, given Hilbert space $H$ and symmetric operator $A$, an embedding of $H$ into an $L_2$-space through which $A$ is extended by a multiplication operator. This process will…
If $E=\{e_i\}$ and $F=\{f_i\}$ are two 1-unconditional basic sequences in $L_1$ with $E$ $r$-concave and $F$ $p$-convex, for some $1\le r<p\le 2$, then the space of matrices $\{a_{i,j}\}$ with norm $\|\{a_{i,j}\}\|_{E(F)}=\big\|\sum_k…
We prove that a Hilbert space frame $\fti$ contains a Riesz basis if every subfamily $\ftj , J \subseteq I ,$ is a frame for its closed span. Secondly we give a new characterization of Banach spaces which do not have any subspace isomorphic…
We introduce two notions of coarse embeddability between operator spaces: almost complete coarse embeddability of bounded subsets and spherically-complete coarse embeddability. We provide examples showing that these notions are strictly…
We prove the Invariant Subspace Conjecture for separable Hilbert spaces.
In a very celebrated paper A. Connes has formulated a conjecture which is now one of the most important open problem in Operator Algebras. This importance comes from the works of many mathematicians who have found some unexpected equivalent…
We perform a systematic exact algebraic search for integrable spin-S chains which are isotropic in spin space, i.e. are su(2)-invariant. The families of spin chains found for S < 14 support recent arguments in favour of the complete…
We study properties of twisted unions of metric spaces introduced by Johnson, Lindenstrauss, and Schechtman, and by Naor and Rabani. In particular, we prove that under certain natural mild assumptions twisted unions of $L_1$-embeddable…
We study finite subsets of $\ell_2$, and more generally any metric space, and consider whether these isometrically embed into a Banach space. Our results partially answer a question of Ostrovskii, on whether every infinite-dimensional…
A central result here is the computation of the entire cyclic homology of canonical smooth subalgebras of stable continuous trace C*-algebras having smooth manifolds M as their spectrum. More precisely, the entire cyclic homology is shown…
Our aim in this paper is to obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for weighted shift operators on the Hilbert spaces $\ell^{2}(\mathbb Z)$ and $\ell^{2}(\mathbb N)$ to be subspace-transitive, consequently, we show that the Herrero…
We study the problem of characterizing the cyclic vectors in de Branges-Rovnyak spaces. Based on a description of the invariant subspaces we show that the difficulty lies entirely in understanding the subspace $(aH^{2})^{\perp}$ and give a…
A linear space is a system of points and lines such that any two distinct points determine a unique line; a Steiner $k$-system (for $k \geq 2$) is a linear space such that each line has size exactly $k$. Clearly, as a two-sorted structure,…
Work of Glover and Huneke shows that a cubic graph embeds into the real projective plane if and only if it does not contain one of six topological minors called cubic projective plane obstructions. Here we classify up to equivalence the…
There are many instances such that deformation space of the homology class of an algebraic cycle as a Hodge cycle is larger than its deformation space as algebraic cycle. This phenomena can occur for algebraic cycles inside hypersurfaces,…
