Two subsets $A, B$ of the plane are betweenness isomorphic if there is a bijection $f\colon A\to B$ such that, for every $x,y,z\in A$, the point $f(z)$ lies on the line segment connecting $f(x)$ and $f(y)$ if and only if $z$ lies on the…
We determine those maps between affine or projective spaces that are linear in the abstract sense of transforming collinear points into collinear points and whose restriction to any line is constant or injective. Our results are extensions…
A classical set of birational invariants of a variety are its spaces of pluricanonical forms and some of their canonically defined subspaces. Each of these vector spaces admits a typical metric structure which is also birationally…
Complementing our previous results, we give a classification of all isometries (not necessarily surjective) of the metric space consisting of ball-bodies, endowed with the Hausdorff metric. "Ball bodies" are convex bodies which are…
For metric spaces $X$ and $Y$, normed spaces $E$ and $F$, and certain subspaces $A(X,E)$ and $A(Y,F)$ of vector-valued continuous functions, we obtain a complete characterization of linear and bijective maps $T:A(X,E)\to A(Y,F)$ preserving…
We construct in ZFC an L topological vector space -- a topological vector space that is an L space -- and an L field -- a topological field that is an L space. This generalizes results in [5] and [8].
Let X, Y be asymmetric normed spaces and Lc(X, Y) the convex cone of all linear continuous operators from X to Y. It is known that in general, Lc(X, Y) is not a vector space. The aim of this note is to prove, using the Baire category…
Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $\mathbb F$ with scalar product given by a nondegenerate sesquilinear form whose matrix is diagonal in some basis. If $\mathbb F=\mathbb C$, then we give canonical matrices of isometric and selfadjoint…
Partial Isometries are important constructs that help give nontrivial solutions once a simple solution is known. We generalize this notion to Extended Partial Isometries and include operators which have right inverses but no left inverses…
It is proposed that the mathematical formalism that is most appropriate for the study of spatially non-integrable cosmological models is the transverse geometry of a one-dimensional foliation (congruence) defined by a physical observer. By…
For a locally compact Hausdorff space $L$, we denote by $C_0(L,\mathbb{R})$ the Banach space of all continuous real-valued functions on $L$ vanishing at infinity, endowed with the supremum norm. In this paper, we prove that every surjective…
We study lattices in non-positively curved metric spaces. Borel density is established in that setting as well as a form of Mostow rigidity. A converse to the flat torus theorem is provided. Geometric arithmeticity results are obtained…
We consider all compatible topologies of an arbitrary finite-dimensional vector space over a non-trivial valuation field whose metric completion is a locally compact space. We construct the canonical lattice isomorphism between the lattice…
In this paper we show how to approximate ("learn") a function f, where X and Y are metric spaces.
We say that a mapping $f: X \rightarrow Y$ between two real normed spaces is a phase-isometry if it satisfies the functional equation \begin{eqnarray*} \{\|f(x)+f(y)\|, \|f(x)-f(y)\|\}=\{\|x+y\|, \|x-y\|\} \quad (x,y\in X).\end{eqnarray*} A…
These informal notes are concerned with spaces of functions in various situations, including continuous functions on topological spaces, holomorphic functions of one or more complex variables, and so on.
We investigate algebraic structures within sets of surjective and injective linear operators between sequence spaces, completing results of Aron et al.
We say that a map $T: S_X\rightarrow S_Y$ between the unit spheres of two real normed-spaces $X$ and $Y$ is a phase-isometry if it satisfies \begin{eqnarray*} \{\|T(x)+T(y)\|, \|T(x)-T(y)\|\}=\{\|x+y\|, \|x-y\|\} \end{eqnarray*} for all…
For a locally compact Hausdorff space $L$, we denote by $C_0(L,\mathbb{R})$ the Banach space of all continuous real-valued functions on $L$ vanishing at infinity equipped with the supremum norm. We prove that every surjective phase-isometry…
Let $S(H)$ be the set of all self-adjoint bonded linear operators on $H$ and $\mathcal{V} \subset S(H)$ a subset that is pertinent in mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics. A symmetry is a bijective map $\phi :\mathcal{V} \to…
