We construct a family of non-parametric (infinite-dimensional) manifolds of finite measures on $R^d$. The manifolds are modelled on a variety of weighted Sobolev spaces, including Hilbert-Sobolev spaces and mixed-norm spaces. Each supports…

Let $(M,g)$ be a spacetime. That is, $M$ is a real manifold of dimension $4$ equipped with a Lorentzian metric $g$. We show that any separation of time and space in $M$ is equivalent to introducing a (non-smooth) Riemann metric $h$. If $h$…

We study metric measure spaces that admit "thick" families of rectifiable curves or curve fragments, in the form of Alberti representations or curve families of positive modulus. We show that such spaces cannot be bi-Lipschitz embedded into…

Finite subset spaces of a metric space $X$ form a nested sequence under natural isometric embeddings $X=X(1)\subset X(2)\subset\dots$. We prove that this sequence admits Lipschitz retractions $X(n)\to X(n-1)$ when $X$ is a Hilbert space.

Given $n\in\mathbb{N}$ any point on the closed unit disk $\overline{\mathbb{D}}$ can be written as the average of $n$ points on the unit circle $\mathbb{S}^1$. Here we discuss a non-commutative version of this result. We prove that for any…

We investigate how coarse embeddability of box spaces into Hilbert space behaves under group extensions. In particular, we prove a result which implies that a semidirect product of a finitely generated free group by a finitely generated…

Motivated by Kloeckner's result on the isometry group of the quadratic Wasserstein space $\mathcal{W}_2\left(\mathbb{R}^n\right)$, we describe the isometry group $\mathrm{Isom}\left(\mathcal{W}_p (E)\right)$ for all parameters $0 < p <…

We prove a warped product splitting theorem for manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below in the spirit of [Croke-Kleiner, \emph{Duke Math.\;J}.\;(1992)], but instead of asking that one boundary component is compact and mean-convex,…

The structure of subspaces of a Hilbert space that are invariant under unitary representations of a discrete group is related to a notion of Hilbert modules endowed with inner products taking values in spaces of unbounded operators. A…

We associate to any Riemannian symmetric space (of finite or infinite dimension) a L$^*$-algebra, under the assumption that the curvature operator has a fixed sign. L$^*$-algebras are Lie algebras with a pleasant Hilbert space structure.…

We introduce the notion of continuous frame in n-Hilbert space which is a generalization of discrete frame in n-Hilbert space. The tensor product of Hilbert spaces is a very important topic in mathematics. Here we also introduce the concept…

We obtain a general concept of triplet of Hilbert spaces with closed (unbounded) embeddings instead of continuous (bounded) ones. The construction starts with a positive selfadjoint operator $H$, that is called the Hamiltonian of the…

We show that the existence of a strongly convex function with a Lipschitz derivative on a Banach space already implies that the space is isomorphic to a Hilbert space. Similarly, if both a function and its convex conjugate are $C^2$ then…

A set of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces are obtained on Hilbert spaces over quaternion slices with the aid of coherent states. It is proved that the so obtained set forms a measurable field of Hilbert spaces and their direct integral…

We show that for generic sliced spacetimes global hyperbolicity is equivalent to space completeness under the assumption that the lapse, shift and spatial metric are uniformly bounded. This leads us to the conclusion that simple sliced…

We consider a Hilbert space that is a product of a finite number of Hilbert spaces and operators that are represented by "componental operators" acting on the Hilbert spaces that form the product space. We attribute operatorial properties…

Let $V$ be a Banach space where for fixed $n$, $1<n<\dim(V)$, all of its $n$-dimensional subspaces are isometric. In 1932, Banach asked if under this hypothesis $V$ is necessarily a Hilbert space. Gromov, in 1967, answered it positively for…

We prove that a metric measure space $(X,d,m)$ satisfying finite dimensional lower Ricci curvature bounds and whose Sobolev space $W^{1,2}$ is Hilbert is rectifiable. That is, a $RCD^*(K,N)$-space is rectifiable, and in particular for…

This paper is motivated by Grothendieck's splitting theorem. In the 1960s, Gohberg generalized this to a class of Banach bundles. We consider a compact complex manifold $X$ and a holomorphic Banach bundle $E \to X$ that is a compact…

Quantum mechanics is formulated on a Hilbert space that is assumed to be separable. However, there seems to be no clear reason justifying this assumption. Does it have physical implications? We answer in the positive by proposing a test…
