Denote by $[0,\omega_1)$ the locally compact Hausdorff space consisting of all countable ordinals, equipped with the order topology, and let $C_0[0,\omega_1)$ be the Banach space of scalar-valued, continuous functions which are defined on…

A Banach space is said to be Grothendieck if weak and weak$^*$ convergent sequences in the dual space coincide. This notion has been quantificated by H. Bendov\'{a}. She has proved that $\ell_\infty$ has the quantitative Grothendieck…

When does a topological group $G$ have a Hausdorff compactification $bG$ with a remainder belonging to a given class of spaces? In this paper, we mainly improve some results of A.V. Arhangel'ski\v{\i} and C. Liu's. Let $G$ be a non-locally…

Let (A_0,A_1) and (B_0,B_1) be Banach couples with A_0 contained in A_1 and B_0 contained in B_1. Let T:A_1 --> B_1 be a possibly nonlinear operator which is a compact Lipschitz map of A_j into B_j for j=0,1. It is known that T maps the…

In [8] probabilistic methods, in particular a variant of the Weak Law of Large Numbers related to the Bernoulli distribution, have been used to show that for every infinite compact spaces K and L there exists a sequence $(\mu_n)$ of…

In a previous article by the author and P. Wesolek, it was shown that a compactly generated locally compact group $G$ admits a finite normal series $(G_i)$ in which the factors are compact, discrete or irreducible in the sense that no…

We study locally compact groups having all subgroups minimal. We call such groups hereditarily minimal. In 1972 Prodanov proved that the infinite hereditarily minimal compact abelian groups are precisely the groups $\mathbb Z_p$ of $p$-adic…

Let $M$ be a locally symmetric irreducible closed manifold of dimension $\ge 3$. A result of Borel [Bo] combined with Mostow rigidity imply that there exists a finite group $G = G(M)$ such that any finite subgroup of $\text{Homeo}^+(M)$ is…

It is well-known that Polish Roelcke precompact groups are the groups that can be represented as automorphism groups of $\aleph_0$-categorical structures in continuous logic and that there is a precise correspondence between properties of…

Let $E$ be a Banach space such that $E'$ has the Radon-Nikod\'ym property. The aim of this work is to connect relative weak compactness in the $E$-valued martingale Hardy space $H^{1}(\mu,E)$ to a convex compactness criterion in a weaker…

We investigate the stability of compactness of bilinear operators acting on the product of interpolation of Banach spaces. We develop a general framework for such results and our method applies to abstract methods of interpolation in the…

We discuss properties of orbits of (semi)group actions on locally compact groups G. In particular, we show that if a compactly generated locally compact abelian group acts distally on G then the closure of each of its orbits is a minimal…

In this work, we will introduce and study the notion of local randomness for compact metric groups. We prove a mixing inequality as well as a product result for locally random groups under an additional dimension condition on the volume of…

We study compact embeddings of Sobolev, Besov, and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces with variable exponents on both bounded and unbounded metric measure spaces. We establish sufficient conditions for compactness, and under additional assumptions, we…

We show via an application of techniques from complex interpolation theory how the $L^p$-pseudofunction algebras of a locally compact group $G$ can be understood as sitting between $L^1(G)$ and $C^*(G)$. Motivated by this, we collect and…

In this paper we show that if $(y_n)$ is a seminormalized sequence in a Banach space which does not have any weakly convergent subsequence, then it contains a wide-$(s)$ subsequence $(x_n)$ which admits an equivalent convex basic sequence.…

We shall prove a convergence result relative to sequences of Minkowski symmetrals of general compact sets. In particular, we investigate the case when this process is induced by sequences of subspaces whose elements belong to a finite…

A theorem of A. Weil asserts that a topological group embeds as a (dense) subgroup of a locally compact group if and only if it contains a non-empty precompact open set; such groups are called locally precompact. Within the class of locally…

For a Tychonoff space $X$ by $C_p(X)$ we denote the space $C(X)$ of continuous real valued functions on $X$ endowed with the pointwise topology. We prove that an infinite compact space $X$ is scattered if and only if every closed…

The lack of a $p$-adic Haar measure causes many methods of traditional representation theory to break down when applied to continuous representations of a compact $p$-adic Lie group $G$ in Banach spaces over a given $p$-adic field $K$. For…
