In this paper we consider approximations introduced by Sacks-Uhlenbeck of the harmonic energy for maps from $S^2$ into $S^2$. We continue the analysis in [6] about limits of $\alpha$-harmonic maps with uniformly bounded energy. Using a…

We classify up to equivalence the gradings on Hurwitz superalgebras and on symmetric composition superalgebras, over any field. Also, classifications up to isomorphism are given in case the field is algebraically closed. By grading, here we…

Let $W^1L^{p,q}(\mathbb H^n)$, $1\leq q,p < \infty$ denote the Lorentz-Sobolev spaces of order one in the hyperbolic spaces $\mathbb H^n$. Our aim in this paper is three-fold. First of all, we establish a sharp Poincar\'e inequality in…

We introduce a notion of categorical homotopic distance between functors by adapting the notion of homotopic distance in topological spaces, recently defined by the authors to the context of small categories. Moreover, this notion…

In this paper we consider an abstract Wiener space $(X,\gamma,H)$ and an open subset $O\subseteq X$ which satisfies suitable assumptions. For every $p\in(1,+\infty)$ we define the Sobolev space $W_{0}^{1,p}(O,\gamma)$ as the closure of…

We introduce compactness classes of Hilbert space operators by grouping together all operators for which the associated singular values decay at a certain speed and establish upper bounds for the norm of the resolvent of operators belonging…

By assigning a probability measure via the spectrum of the normalized Laplacian to each graph and using L^p Wasserstein distances between probability measures, we define the corresponding spectral distances d_p on the set of all graphs.…

We seek for lines of minimal distance to finitely many points in the plane. The distance between a line and a set of points is defined by the L^p-norm, 1\leq p\leq \infty, of the vector of vertical or orthogonal distances from the single…

We determine when a quasi-isometry between discrete spaces is at bounded distance from a bilipschitz map. From this we prove a geometric version of the Von Neumann conjecture on amenability. We also get some examples in geometric groups…

Any discrete approach to quantum gravity must provide some prescription as to how to deduce continuum properties from the discrete substructure. In the causal set approach it is straightforward to deduce timelike distances, but surprisingly…

We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points where a function in the Zygmund class in the euclidean space has bounded divided differences, is bigger or equal to 1. A similar result for functions in the Small Zygmund class is…

We determine the distance (up to a multiplicative constant) in the Zygmund class $\Lambda_{\ast}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ to the subspace $\mathrm{J}(\mathbf{bmo})(\mathbb{R}^n).$ The latter space is the image under the Bessel potential $J :=…

An order relation for contractions on a Hilbert space can be introduced by stating that $A\preccurlyeq B$ if and only $A$ is unitarily equivalent to the restriction of $B$ to an invariant subspace. We discuss the equivalence classes…

For $0<\alpha\leq1$ and $\lambda>0,$ let \begin{equation}\label{1} G_{\lambda,\alpha}=\left\{f\in\mathcal{A}:\left|\dfrac{1-\alpha+\alpha zf''(z)/f'(z)}{zf'(z)/f(z)}-(1-\alpha)\right|<\lambda, z\in\mathbb{D}\right\}, \end{equation} the…

A homogeneous set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space determines at least $\Omega(n^{2d/(d^2+1)} / \log^{c(d)} n)$ distinct distances for a constant $c(d)>0$. In three-space, we slightly improve our general bound and show…

There are several relations which may fall short of genuine identity, but which behave like identity in important respects. Such grades of discrimination have recently been the subject of much philosophical and technical discussion. This…

For each given $p\in[1,\infty]$ we investigate certain sub-family $\mathcal{M}_p$ of the collection of all compact metric spaces $\mathcal{M}$ which are characterized by the satisfaction of a strengthened form of the triangle inequality…

We investigate the category of discrete topological spaces, with emphasis on inverse systems of height $\omega_1$. Their inverse limits belong to the class of $P$-spaces, which allows us to explore dimensional types of these spaces.

The coarse similarity class $[A]$ of $A$ is the set of all $B$ whose symmetric difference with $A$ has asymptotic density 0. There is a natural metric $\delta$ on the space $\mathcal{S}$ of coarse similarity classes defined by letting…

We develop a new class of distances for objects including lines, hyperplanes, and trajectories, based on the distance to a set of landmarks. These distances easily and interpretably map objects to a Euclidean space, are simple to compute,…
