We give elementary applications of quasi-homomorphisms to growth problems in groups. A particular case concerns the number of torsion elements required to factorise a given element in the mapping class group of a surface.
The (measure-theoretical) entropy of a diffeomorphism along an expanding invariant foliation is the rate of complexity generated by the diffeomorphism along the leaves of the foliation. We prove that this number varies upper…
We study the order theoretic properties of relative weak injectivity, w.r.i., in short, in the category of C*-algebras. We prove that Arveson's extension theorem, with additional order assumption on the morphisms, is tightly connected with…
We prove that for any measurable mapping $T$ into the space of matrices with positive determinant, there is a diffeomorphism whose derivative equals $T$ outside a set of measure less than $\varepsilon$. We use this fact to prove that for…
Nonexpansive mappings play a central role in modern optimization and monotone operator theory because their fixed points can describe solutions to optimization or critical point problems. It is known that when the mappings are sufficiently…
In practical implementations of density-functional theory, the only term where an orbital description is needed is the kinetic one. Even this term in principle depends on the density only, but its explicit form is unknown. We provide a…
We develop a new approach to the conformal geometry of embedded hypersurfaces by treating them as conformal infinities of conformally compact manifolds. This involves the Loewner--Nirenberg-type problem of finding on the interior a metric…
A paper is devoted to study of local behavior of so-called $Q$-mappings including qua\-si\-con\-for\-mal mappings and mappings with bounded distortion. It is showed that, such mappings have removable isolated singularities whenever the grow…
We study the optimal conditions on a homeomorphism $f:\Omega\subset \R^n\to \R^n$ to guarantee that the composition $u\circ f$ belongs to the space of functions of bounded variation for every function $u$ of bounded variation. We show that…
We show that an entire branched cover of finite distortion cannot have a compact branch set if its distortion satisfies a certain asymptotic growth condition. We furthermore show that this bound is strict by constructing an entire,…
A nonlinear inverse problem of antiplane elasticity for a multiply connected domain is examined. It is required to determine the profile of $n$ uniformly stressed inclusions when the surrounding infinite body is subjected to antiplane…
We give a brief account on a basic result (Lemma \ref{lem2}) which is a very useful tool in proving various convergence theorems in the framework of the iterative approximation of fixed points of demicontractive mappings in Hilbert spaces.…
We consider the localization of elastic waves in thin elastic structures with spatially varying curvature profiles, using a curved rod and a singly curved shell as concrete examples. Previous studies on related problems have broadly focused…
In this work, we deal with a notion of partially hyperbolic endomorphism. We explore topological properties of this definition and we obtain, among other results, obstructions to get center leaf conjugacy with the linear part, for a class…
We introduce a general random model of a combinatorial optimization problem with geometric structure that encapsulates both linear programming and integer linear programming. Let $Q$ be a bounded set called the feasible set, $E$ be an…
We consider almost periodic stationary nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations in dimension $1$. Under certain assumptions we prove the existence of nontrivial finite energy solutions in the strongly indefinite case. The proof is based on a…
We prove existence and uniqueness of minimizers for a family of energy functionals that arises in Elasticity and involves polyconvex integrands over a certain subset of displacement maps. This work extends previous results by Awi and Gangbo…
In this paper, we study the prescribed $Q$-curvature problem on closed four-dimensional Riemannian manifolds when the total integral of the $Q$-curvature is a positive integer multiple of the one of the four-dimensional round sphere. This…
We prove the existence of low energy excitations in insulating systems at general filling factor under certain conditions, and discuss in which cases these may be identified as topological excitations. This proof is based on previously…
The present paper is devoted to the study of classes of mappings with non-bounded characteristic of quasiconformality. It is obtained a result on normal families of the open discrete mappings $f:D\rightarrow {\Bbb C}\setminus\{a, b\}$ of…
