A metric space is said to be strongly rigid if no positive distance is taken twice by the metric. In 1972, Janos proved that a separable metrizable space has a strongly rigid metric if and only if it is zero-dimensional. In this paper, we…
We prove that if every bounded linear operator (or $N$-homogeneous polynomials) with the compact approximation property attains its numerical radius, then $X$ is a finite dimensional space. Moreover, we present an improvement of the…
Let $X$ be a normal projective variety over a complete discretely valued field and $L$ a line bundle on $X$. We denote by $X^\textrm{an}$ the analytification of $X$ in the sense of Berkovich and equip the analytification $L^\textrm{an}$ of…
We prove that two homogeneous ultra-metric spaces $X,Y$ are coarsely equivalent if and only if $\mathrm{Ent}^\sharp(X)=\mathrm{Ent}^\sharp(Y)$ where $\mathrm{Ent}^\sharp(X)$ is the so-called sharp entropy of $X$. This classification implies…
For a metrizable space, we consider the space of all metrics generating the same topology of the metrizable space, and this space of metrics is equipped with the supremum metric. In this paper, for every metrizable space, we establish that…
Let $\mathcal X$ be an RD-space, which means that $\mathcal X$ is a space of homogeneous type in the sense of Coifman-Weiss with the additional property that a reverse doubling property holds in $\mathcal X$. The aim of the present paper is…
Optimal transport enables one to construct a metric on the set of (sufficiently small at infinity) probability measures on any (not too wild) metric space X, called its Wasserstein space W(X). In this paper we investigate the geometry of…
A metric measure space is a metric space with a Borel measure. In Gromov's theory of metric measure spaces, there are important invariants called the partial diameter and the observable diameter. We obtain the result that the partial…
It is shown that any separable state on Hilbert space ${\cal H}={\cal H}_1\otimes{\cal H}_2$, can be written as a convex combination of N pure product states with $N\leq (dim{\cal H})^2$. Then a new separability criterion for mixed states…
The main result is the following. Let $f \colon X \rightarrow Y$ be a continuous mapping of a completely Baire space $X$ onto a hereditary weakly Preiss-Simon regular space $Y$ such that the image of every open subset of $X$ is a resolvable…
This is a survey of the recent results and unsolved problems about locally compact homogeneous metric spaces. Mostly, homogeneous finite-dimensional $ANR$-spaces are discussed.
We prove that if $\mathcal{F}$ is a non-meager $P$-filter, then both $\mathcal{F}$ and ${}^\omega\mathcal{F}$ are countable dense homogeneous spaces.
For every countable ordinal number $\xi$, we construct a metric space $X_{\xi}$ whose transfinite asymptotic dimension and complementary-finite asymptotic dimension are both $\xi$.
All spaces below are $T_0$ and crowded (i.e. have no isolated points). For $n \le \omega$ let $M(n)$ be the statement that there are $n$ measurable cardinals and $\Pi(n)$ ($\Pi^+(n)$) that there are $n+1$ (0-dimensional $T_2$) spaces whose…
For a Tychonoff space $X$, $B_1(X)$ denotes the space of all Baire-one functions on $X$ endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (1) $B_1(X)$ is a (semi-)Montel space, (2) $B_1(X)$ is a…
We show that capacity can be computed with locally Lipschitz functions in locally complete and separable metric spaces. Further, we show that if $(X,d,\mu)$ is a locally complete and separable metric measure space, then continuous functions…
We prove the following result announced in Todorov and Valov: Any homogeneous, metric $ANR$-continuum is a $V^n_G$-continuum provided $\dim_GX=n\geq 1$ and $\check{H}^n(X;G)\neq 0$, where $G$ is a principal ideal domain. This implies that…
All spaces are assumed to be separable and metrizable. Building on work of van Engelen, Harrington, Michalewski and Ostrovsky, we obtain the following results: (1) Every finite-dimensional analytic space is $\sigma$-homogeneous with…
We give a counterexample to a conjecture of S.E. Morris by showing that there is a compact plane set X such that R(X) has no non-zero, bounded point derivations but such that R(X) is not weakly amenable. We also give an example of a…
Extending a result of R. de la Vega, we prove that an infinite homogeneous compactum has cardinality $\mathfrak{c}$ if either it is the union of countably many dense or finitely many arbitrary countably tight subspaces. The question if…
