Let $(X,d_X,\mu)$ be a metric measure space where $X$ is locally compact and separable and $\mu$ is a Borel regular measure such that $0 <\mu(B(x,r)) <\infty$ for every ball $B(x,r)$ with center $x \in X$ and radius $r>0$. We define…
The paper deals with various centering problems for probability measures on finite dimensional vector spaces. We show that for every such measure there exists a vector $h$ satisfying $\mu*\delta(h)=S(\mu*\delta (h))$ for each symmetry $S$…
The aim of this paper is to study ultralimits of pointed metric measure spaces (possibly unbounded and having infinite mass). We prove that ultralimits exist under mild assumptions and are consistent with the pointed measured…
In a general measure space $(X,\mathcal L,\lambda)$, a characterization of weakly null sequences in $L_\infty (X,\mathcal L,\lambda)$ ($u_k \rightharpoonup 0$) in terms of their pointwise behaviour almost everywhere is derived from the…
Let $X$ be a metric measure space with an $s$-regular measure $\mu$. We prove that if $A\subset X$ is $\varrho$-porous, then $\dim_{\mathrm{p}}(A)\le s-c\varrho^s$ where $\dim_{\mathrm{p}}$ is the packing dimension and $c$ is a positive…
We show that if $X$ is a uniformly perfect complete metric space satisfying the finite doubling property, then there exists a fully supported measure with lower regularity dimension as close to the lower dimension of $X$ as we wish.…
A Borel system consists of a measurable automorphism of a standard Borel space. We consider Borel embeddings and isomorphisms between such systems modulo null sets, i.e. sets which have measure zero for every invariant probability measure.…
We consider the problem of computing the minimum value $f_{\min,K}$ of a polynomial $f$ over a compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, which can be reformulated as finding a probability measure $\nu$ on $K$ minimizing $\int_K f d\nu$.…
We show that for every nondecreasing concave function w:R+ --> R+ with w(0)=0, either every finite metric space embeds with distortion arbitrarily close to 1 into a metric space of the form (X,w o d) for some metric d on X, or there exists…
A Borel probability measure $\mu$ on a locally compact group is called a spectral measure if there exists a subset of continuous group characters which forms an orthogonal basis of the Hilbert space $L^2(\mu)$. In this paper, we…
We show that if $\mathcal{X}$ is a complete separable metric space and $\mathcal{C}$ is a countable family of Borel subsets of $\mathcal{X}$ with finite VC dimension, then, for every stationary ergodic process with values in $\mathcal{X}$,…
We prove that for any compact set B in R^d and for any epsilon >0 there is a finite subset X of B of |X|=d^{O(1/epsilon^2)} points such that the maximum absolute value of any linear function ell: R^d --> R on X approximates the maximum…
The classical embedding theorem of Carleson deals with finite positive Borel measures $\mu$ on the closed unit disk for which there exists a positive constant $c$ such that $|f|_{L^2(\mu)} \leq c |f|_{H^2}$ for all $f \in H^2$, the Hardy…
We show that for any free probability measure-preserving action of $\mathbb{C}^{d}$ on a standard probability space, there exists a Borel entire function $F$ such that the factor map $x \mapsto F_{x}$, where $F_{x}(z) = F(z \cdot x)$, is…
We show that every nonempty compact and convex space M of probability Radon measures either contains a measure which has `small' local character in M or else M contains a measure of `large' Maharam type. Such a dichotomy is related to…
We show that if $(X, \mu, T)$ is a probability measure-preserving dynamical system, and $\mathscr{P}$ is a countable partition of $(X, \mu)$, then the limit $$ \lim_{n, k \to \infty} \mathbb{E} \left[ \frac{1}{k} \sum_{j = 0}^{k - 1} f…
We show that, on any given finite Borel measure space with the ambient space being a Polish metric space, every Borel real-valued function is almost a bounded, uniformly continuous function in the sense that for every $\varepsilon > 0$…
We study higher-order compact Sobolev embeddings on a domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb R^n$ endowed with a probability measure $\nu$ and satisfying certain isoperimetric inequality. Given $m\in \mathbb N$, we present a condition on a pair…
We show that for every $\alpha > 0$, there exist $n$-point metric spaces (X,d) where every "scale" admits a Euclidean embedding with distortion at most $\alpha$, but the whole space requires distortion at least $\Omega(\sqrt{\alpha \log…
We provide a simple proof that in any homogeneous, compact metric space of diameter $D$, if one finds the average distance $A$ achieved in $X$ with respect to some isometry invariant Borel probability measure, then $$\frac{D}{2} \leq A \leq…
