For a Banach space $X$ denote by $\mathcal{L}(X)$ the algebra of bounded linear operators on $X$, by $\mathcal{K}(X)$ the compact operator ideal on $X$, and by $Cal(X) = \mathcal{L}(X)/\mathcal{K}(X)$ the Calkin algebra of $X$. We prove…

We study property (T) and the fixed point property for actions on $L^p$ and other Banach spaces. We show that property (T) holds when $L^2$ is replaced by $L^p$ (and even a subspace/quotient of $L^p$), and that in fact it is independent of…

In 1999, Bates, Johnson, Lindenstrauss, Preiss and Schechtman asked whether a Banach space that is a uniform quotient of $\ell_p$, $1 < p \neq 2 < \infty$, must be isomorphic to a linear quotient of $\ell_p$. We apply the geometric property…

In the first part of the paper we prove that for $2 < p, r < \infty$ every operator $T: L_p \to \ell_r$ is narrow. This completes the list of sequence and function Lebesgue spaces $X$ with the property that every operator $T:L_p \to X$ is…

New concepts related to approximating a Lipschitz function between Banach spaces by affine functions are introduced. Results which clarify when such approximations are possible are proved and in some cases a complete characterization of the…

We initiate an investigation into how much the existing theory of (nonselfadjoint) operator algebras on a Hilbert space generalizes to algebras acting on L^p spaces. In particular we investigate the applicability of the theory of real…

For $1< p <2$ we obtain sharp inequalities for the supremum of products of homogeneous polynomials on $L_p(\mu)$, whenever the number of factors is no greater than the dimension of these Banach spaces (a condition readily satisfied in the…

We show that multiplication from $L_p\times L_q$ to $L_1$ (for $p,q\in [1,\infty]$, $1/p+1/q=1$) is a uniformly open mapping. We also prove the uniform openness of the multiplication from $\ell_1\times c_0$ to $\ell_1$. This strengthens the…

Suppose that $M$ is an even lattice with dual $M^{*}$ and level $N$. Then the group $Mp_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$, which is the unique non-trivial double cover of $SL_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$, admits a representation $\rho_{M}$, called the Weil…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $1\leq p<\infty$. A continuous unitary representation $\pi\!: G\to B(\mathcal{H})$ of $G$ is an $L^p$-representation if the matrix coefficient functions $s\mapsto \langle \pi(s)x,x\rangle$ lie in…

For $p\in [1,\infty)$ we study representations of a locally compact group $G$ on $L^p$-spaces and $QSL^p$-spaces. The universal completions $F^p(G)$ and $F^p_{\mathrm{QS}}(G)$ of $L^1(G)$ with respect to these classes of representations…

We study the $p$-spectrum of a locally symmetric space of constant curvature $\Gamma\backslash X$, in connection with the right regular representation of the full isometry group $G$ of $X$ on $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)_{\tau_p}$, where…

For every $p\in (0,\infty)$ we associate to every metric space $(X,d_X)$ a numerical invariant $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)\in [0,\infty]$ such that if $\mathfrak{X}_p(X)<\infty$ and a metric space $(Y,d_Y)$ admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into $X$…

We show that for acylindrically hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ (with no nontrivial finite normal subgroups) and arbitrary unitary representation $\rho$ of $\Gamma$ in a (nonzero) uniformly convex Banach space the vector space…

We relate the dimensions of $L^p$ reduced cohomology spaces in degree k of an ALE manifold to the dimension of some spaces of decaying harmonic forms, depending both on p and on k. In this class of manifolds, this provides an extension to…

A remarkable result of Moln\'ar [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 126 (1998), 853-861] states that automorphisms of the algebra of operators acting on a separable Hilbert space is stable under "small" perturbations. More precisely, if $\phi,\psi$…

Let $\M$ be a semi-finite von Neumann algebra equipped with a faithful normal trace $\tau$. We study the subspace structures of non-commutative Lorentz spaces $L_{p,q}(\M, \tau)$, extending results of Carothers and Dilworth to the…

In this paper we give a simpler proof of the $L^p$-Schwartz space isomorphism $(0< p\leq 2)$ under the Fourier transform for the class of functions of left $\delta$-type on a Riemannian symmetric space of rank one. Our treatment rests on…

We introduce a framework to define coalgebra and bialgebra structures on two-dimensional (2D) square lattices, extending the algebraic theory of Hopf algebras and quantum groups beyond the one-dimensional (1D) setting. Our construction is…

We prove that every non-degenerate Banach space representation of the Drinfeld-Jimbo algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ of a semisimple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is finite dimensional when $|q|\ne 1$. As a corollary, we find an explicit…
