Establishing the convergence of splines can be cast as a variational problem which is amenable to a $\Gamma$-convergence approach. We consider the case in which the regularization coefficient scales with the number of observations, $n$, as…

Our main result is the proof of an inequality between the spectral numbers of a Lagrangian and the spectral numbers of its reductions, in the opposite direction to the classical inequality (see e.g [Vit92]). This has applications to the…

In this note I generalize the classical results of Calabi-Vesentini to certain non-compact locally symmetric domains, namely those that are quotients of a hermitian symmetric domain by a neat arithmetic subgroup of the group of its…

We announce various results concerning the structure of compactly generated simple locally compact groups. We introduce a local invariant, called the structure lattice, which consists of commensurability classes of compact subgroups with…

We introduce a notion of $L^2$-Betti numbers for locally compact, second countable, unimodular groups. We study the relation to the standard notion of $L^2$-Betti numbers of countable discrete groups for lattices. In this way, several new…

The main result is a general approximation theorem for normalised Betti numbers for Farber sequences of lattices in totally disconnected groups. Further, we contribute some computations and complements to the general theory of $L^2$-Betti…

We prove a compactness result with respect to $\Gamma$-convergence for a class of integral functionals which are expressed as a sum of a local and a non-local term. The main feature is that, under our hypotheses, the local part of the…

The main aim of the present note is to consider bounded orthomorphisms between locally solid vector lattices. We establish a version of the remarkable Zannen theorem regarding equivalence between orthomomorphisms and the underlying vector…

The following two results are shown. 1) Let $G$ be the $k$-rational points of a simple algebraic group over a local field $k$ and let $H$ be a lattice in $G.$ Then the regular representation of $G$ on $L^2(G/H)$ has a spectral gap (that is,…

This short note provides a symplectic analogue of Vaisman's theorem in complex geometry. Namely, for any compact symplectic manifold satisfying the hard Lefschetz condition in degree 1, every locally conformally symplectic structure is in…

Using the spectral theory of weakly convergent sequences of finite graphs, we prove the uniform existence of the integrated density of states for a large class of infinite graphs.

We summarize recent results initiating spectral analysis on pseudo-Riemannian locally symmetric spaces $\Gamma \backslash G/H$, beyond the classical setting where $H$ is compact (e.g. theory of automorphic forms for arithmetic $\Gamma$) or…

In this paper we provide spectral inclusion and mapping theorems for strongly continuous locally equicontinuous semigroups on Hausdorff locally convex spaces. Our results extend the classical spectral inclusion and mapping theorems for…

A classical result in the study of Ginzburg-Landau equations is that, for Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions, if a sequence of functions has energy uniformly bounded on a logarithmic scale then we can find a subsequence whose…

We investigate the Bieri--Neumann--Strebel--Renz (BNSR) invariants of irreducible uniform lattices. In the case of a direct product of a tree and a Euclidean space we show that vanishing of the BNSR invariants for all finite-index subgroups…

We propose a notion of graph convergence that interpolates between the Benjamini--Schramm convergence of bounded degree graphs and the dense graph convergence developed by L\'aszl\'o Lov\'asz and his coauthors. We prove that spectra of…

We show that lattice isomorphisms between lattices of slowly oscillating functions on chain-connected proper metric spaces induce coarsely equivalent homeomorphisms. This result leads to a Banach-Stone-like theorem for these lattices.…

Spacetimes obtained by dimensional reduction along lattices containing a lightlike direction can admit semigroup extensions of their isometry groups. We show by concrete examples that such a semigroup can exhibit a natural order, which in…

We develop a suitable generalization of Almgren's theory of varifolds in a lorentzian setting, focusing on area, first variation, rectifiability, compactness and closure issues. Motivated by the asymptotic behaviour of the scaled hyperbolic…

I prove that the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator with the Neumann boundary condition on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary admits a fast approximation by the spectra of suitable graph Laplacians on proximity graphs on the…
