We study fibred spaces with fibres in a structure category $\V$ and we show that cellular approximation, Blakers--Massey theorem, Whitehead theorems, obstruction theory, Hurewicz homomorphism, Wall finiteness obstruction, and Whitehead…

We study compactness and L\"owenheim-Skolem properties of fragments of the class-sized logic $\mathcal{L}_{\infty \infty}$ and of class-sized versions of second-order and sort logics. In these fragments, certain combinations of infinitary…

For a compactification $\alpha X$ of a Tychonoff space $X$, the algebra of all functions $f\in C(X)$ that are continuously extendable over $% \alpha X$ is denoted by $C_{\alpha}(X)$. It is shown that, in a model of $\textbf{ZF}$, it may…

In this paper, we introduce and study the class of {\it enriched strictly pseudocontractive mappings} in Hilbert spaces and extend the corresponding convergence theorem (Theorem 12) in [Browder, F. E., Petryshyn, W. V., {\it Construction of…

We deal with a class of Lipschitz vector functions $U=(u_1,...,u_h)$ whose components are non negative, disjointly supported and verify an elliptic equation on each support. Under a weak formulation of a reflection law, related to the…

A contraction $T$ on a (complex, separable) Hilbert space is stable, or of class $C_{0\cdot}$, if $T^n\to 0$ in the strong operator topology. It is proved that for a non-stable pure subnormal contraction $T$ there exists a singular inner…

We study the consistency strength of Lebesgue measurability for $\Sigma^1_3$ sets over Zermelo set theory ($Z$) in a completely choiceless context. We establish a result analogous to the Solovay-Shelah theorem.

We compare the compactness of composition operators on $H^2$ and on Orlicz-Hardy spaces $H^\Psi$. We show in particular that exists an Orlicz function $\Psi$ such that $H^{3+\eps} \subseteq H^\Psi \subseteq H^3$ for every $\eps >0$, and a…

In this short note we show that Helly's Intersection Theorem holds for convex sets in uniquely geodesic spaces (in particular in CAT(0) spaces) without the assumption that the convex sets are open or closed.

A version of Arzel\`a-Ascoli theorem for $X$ being $\sigma$-locally compact Hausdorff space is proved. The result is used in proving compactness of Fredholm, Hammerstein and Urysohn operators. Two fixed point theorems, for Hammerstein and…

We study necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Lorentzian and weak Lorentzian cobordisms between closed smooth manifolds of arbitrary dimension such that the structure group of the frame bundle of the cobordism is…

We investigate the Hilbert complex of elasticity involving spaces of symmetric tensor fields. For the involved tensor fields and operators we show closed ranges, Friedrichs/Poincare type estimates, Helmholtz type decompositions, regular…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$ whose boundary is a $\mathbb{C}^2$ compact manifolds. In the present paper we shall study a variational problem relating the weighted Hardy inequalities with sharp missing terms. As weights…

We continue our investigation of the configuration space of general relativity begun in I (gr-qc/9411009). Here we examine the Hamiltonian constraint when the spatial geometry is momentarily static (MS). We show that MS configurations…

The simplest toroidally compactified string theories exhibit a duality between large and small radii: compactification on a circle, for example, is invariant under R goes to 1/R. Compactification on more general Lorentzian lattices (i.e.…

Over the years a number of topologies for the set of laws of stochastic processes have been proposed. Building on the weak topology they all aim to capture more accurately the temporal structure of the processes. In a parallel paper we show…

Let $\partial{\bf H}^n_{\mathbb K}$ denote the boundary of a symmetric space of rank-one and of non-compact type and let $d_{\mathfrak{H}}$ be the Kor\'anyi metric defined in $\partial{\bf H}^n_{\mathbb K}$. We prove that if $d$ is a metric…

In the first part of the paper a general notion of sampling expansions for locally compact groups is introduced, and its close relationship to the discretisation problem for generalised wavelet transforms is established. In the second part,…

Topological constraints on a dynamical system often manifest themselves as breaking of the Hamiltonian structure; well-known examples are non-holonomic constraints on Lagrangian mechanics. The statistical mechanics under such topological…

A Hamiltonian density bounded from below implies that the lowest-energy state is stable. We point out, contrary to common lore, that an unbounded Hamiltonian density does not necessarily imply an instability: Stability is indeed a…
