We prove that the Heisenberg Riesz transform is $L_2$--unbounded on a family of intrinsic Lipschitz graphs in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$. We construct this family by combining a method from \cite{NY2} with a stopping time…

Kirszbraun's Theorem states that every Lipschitz map $S\to\mathbb R^n$, where $S\subseteq \mathbb R^m$, has an extension to a Lipschitz map $\mathbb R^m \to \mathbb R^n$ with the same Lipschitz constant. Its proof relies on Helly's Theorem:…

It is conjectured that irreducible representations of symmetric groups have no non-trivial self-extension over fields of odd characteristic. We improve on partial results showing evidence of this conjecture.

This article studies typical 1-Lipschitz images of $n$-rectifiable metric spaces $E$ into $\mathbb{R}^m$ for $m\geq n$. For example, if $E\subset \mathbb{R}^k$, we show that the Jacobian of such a typical 1-Lipschitz map equals 1…

The metric Markov cotype of barycentric metric spaces is computed, yielding the first class of metric spaces that are not Banach spaces for which this bi-Lipschitz invariant is understood. It is shown that this leads to new nonlinear…

We show that a map with H\"older exponent bigger than $1/2$ from a quasi-convex metric space with vanishing first Lipschitz homology into the Sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group factors through a tree. In particular, if the domain contains a…

Lipschitz light maps, defined by Cheeger and Kleiner, are a class of non-injective "foldings" between metric spaces that preserve some geometric information. We prove that if a metric space $(X,d)$ has Nagata dimension $n$, then its…

We characterize which mappings from a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$ into the Heisenberg group can be extended to a $C^{m,\omega}$ horizontal curve for a given modulus of continuity $\omega$. We motivate our characterization by showing that…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for two Hopf algebras presented as central extensions to be isomorphic, in a suitable setting. We then study the question of isomorphism between the Hopf algebras constructed in 0707.0070v1 as…

We extend Yosida's 1941 version of Stone-Gelfand duality to metrically complete unital lattice-ordered groups that are no longer required to be real vector spaces. This calls for a generalised notion of compact Hausdorff space whose points…

Let $\mu$ be a Radon measure on the $n$-th Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$. In this note we prove that if the $(2n+1)$-dimensional (Heisenberg) Riesz transform on $\mathbb{H}^n$ is $L^2(\mu)$-bounded, and if $\mu(F)=0$ for all Borel sets…

In Carnot groups of step 2 we consider sets having maximal or minimal possible homogeneous Hausdorff dimension compared to their Euclidean one: in the first case we prove that they must be in a sense vertical, that is a large part of these…

The classical Kirszbraun theorem says that all $1$-Lipschitz functions $f:A\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}^n$, $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, with the Euclidean metric have a $1$-Lipschitz extension to $\mathbb{R}^n$. For metric spaces $X,Y$ we say…

We investigate the possibility of semigroup extensions of the isometry group of an identification space, in particular, of a compactified spacetime arising from an identification map $p: \RR^n_t \to \RR^n_t / \Gamma$, where $\RR^n_t$ is a…

It is shown that the algebraic structure of finite Heisenberg groups associated with the tensor product of two Hilbert spaces leads to a simple demonstration valid in all Hilbert space dimensions of the impossibility of non-contextual…

Let $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ be the Heisenberg group. For $0 \leq \alpha < Q=2n+2$ and $N \in \mathbb{N}$ we consider exponent functions $p(\cdot) : \mathbb{H}^{n} \to (0, +\infty)$, which satisfies H\"older conditions, such that $\frac{Q}{Q+N} <…

Let B be a unital Banach algebra. A projection in B which is equivalent to the identitity may give rise to a matrix-like structure on any two-sided ideal A in B. In this set-up we prove a theorem to the effect that the bounded Hochschild…

In this mostly expository article, we give streamlined proofs of several well-known Lipschitz extension theorems. We pay special attention to obtaining statements with explicit expressions for the extension constants. One of our main…

In this paper we study contact structure on 2-step nilpotent, Heisenberg type Lie groups. We decompose this Lie groups to center and orthogonal complement, then investigate properties of both orthogonal Lie subgroups. Finally, we provide a…

Using classical results of infinite-dimensional geometry, we show that the isometry group of the Urysohn space, endowed with its usual Polish group topology, is homeomorphic to the separable Hilbert space. The proof is basedon a lemma about…
