Let $(W,H,\mu)$ be the classical Wiener space. Assume that $U=I_W+u$ is an adapted perturbation of identity, i.e., $u:W\to H$ is adapted to the canonical filtration of $W$. We give some sufficient analytic conditions on $u$ which imply the…

We calculate the norm of the Fourier operator from $L^p(X)$ to $L^q(\hat{X})$ when $X$ is an infinite locally compact abelian group that is, furthermore, compact or discrete. This subsumes the sharp Hausdorff-Young inequality on such…

We show a closed Bach-flat Riemannian manifold with a fixed positive constant scalar curvature has to be locally spherical if its Weyl and traceless Ricci tensors are small in the sense of either $L^\infty$ or $L^{\frac{n}{2}}$-norm.…

We generalize the positive solution of the Frobenius conjecture and refinements thereof by studying the structure of groups that admit a fix-point-free automorphism satisfying an identity. We show, in particular, that for every polynomial…

A classical result due to Paley and Wiener characterizes the existence of a non-zero function in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$, supported on a half line, in terms of the decay of its Fourier transform. In this paper we prove an analogue of this result…

Schoenberg's theorem for the complex Hilbert sphere proved by Christensen and Ressel in 1982 by Choquet theory is extended to the following result: Let L denote a locally compact group and let \overline{\D} denote the closed unit disc in…

We study the Fourier characterisation of strictly positive definite functions on compact abelian groups. Our main result settles the case $G = F \times \mathbb{T}^r$, with $r \in \mathbb{N}$ and $F$ finite. The characterisation obtained for…

We consider the mass-subcritical Hartree equation with a homogeneous kernel, in the space of square integrable functions whose Fourier transform is integrable. We prove a global well-posedness result in this space. On the other hand, we…

We consider the open problem: Does every square-integrable function f on a compact, connected Lie group G have an almost everywhere convergent Fourier series? We prove a general theorem from which it follows that if the integral modulus of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a connected $G$-vertex-transitive graph, let $v$ be a vertex of $\Gamma$ and let $G_v^{\Gamma(v)}$ be the permutation group induced by the action of the vertex-stabiliser $G_v$ on the neighbourhood $\Gamma(v)$. The graph…

We obtain a Lie theoretic intrinsic characterization of the connected and simply connected solvable Lie groups whose regular representation is a factor representation. When this is the case, the corresponding von Neumann algebras are…

We give a new proof of a result of Ozawa showing that if a von Neumann subalgebra $Q$ of a free group factor $L\Bbb F_n, 2\leq n\leq \infty$ has relative commutant diffuse (i.e. without atoms), then $Q$ is amenable.

For each $f:[0,\infty)\to\Com$ formally consider its co-Poisson or M\"{u}ntz transform $g(x)=\sum_{n\geq 1}f(nx)-\frac{1}{x}\int_0^\infty f(t)dt$. For certain $f$'s with both $f, g \in L_2(0,\infty)$ it is true that the Riemann hypothesis…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be an $\mathrm{NIP}$ expansion of $(\mathbb{R},<,+)$ by closed subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and continuous functions $f : \mathbb{R}^m \to \mathbb{R}^n$. Then $\mathcal{R}$ is generically locally o-minimal. It follows that if…

We prove the following superexponential distribution inequality: for any integrable $g$ on $[0,1)^{d}$ with zero average, and any $\lambda>0$ \[ |\{ x \in [0,1)^{d} \; :\; g \geq\lambda \}| \leq e^{-…

We introduce the notion of Zimmer amenability for actions of discrete quantum groups on von Neumann algebras. We prove generalizations of several fundamental results of the theory in the noncommutative case. In particular, we give a…

We give an infinitesimal criterion, in the analytic setting, for a vector space to be locally homogeneous under some group action. Our approach differs from those which resort to an inverse function theorem (e.g. those of Moser, Zehnder or…

We extend our result on the convergence of double recurrence Wiener-Wintner averages to the case where we have a polynomial exponent. We will show that there exists a single set of full measure for which the averages \[ \frac{1}{N}…

In this paper, we extend the generalized Wiener-Wintner Theorem built by Host and Kra to the multilinear case under the hypothesis of pointwise convergence of multilinear ergodic averages. In particular, we have the following result: Let…

This paper addresses a conjecture of Kadison and Kastler that a von Neumann algebra M on a Hilbert space H should be unitarily equivalent to each sufficiently close von Neumann algebra N and, moreover, the implementing unitary can be chosen…
