Let $A$ be a unital separable amenable \CA and $C$ be a unital \CA with certain infinite property. We show that two full monomorphisms $h_1, h_2: A\to C$ are approximately unitarily equivalent if and only if $[h_1]=[h_2]$ in $KL(A,C).$ Let…
In 1994, John Cobb asked: given $N>m>k>0$, does there exist a Cantor set in $\mathbb R^N$ such that each of its projections into $m$-planes is exactly $k$-dimensional? Such sets were described for $(N,m,k)=(2,1,1)$ by L.Antoine (1924) and…
In analogy with the 290-Theorem of Bhargava-Hanke, a criterion set is a finite subset $C$ of the totally positive integers in a given totally real number field such that if a quadratic form represents all elements of $C$, then it…
A set $A$ of integers is called total if there is an algorithm which, given an enumeration of $A$, enumerates the complement of $A$, and called cototal if there is an algorithm which, given an enumeration of the complement of $A$,…
The enumeration degrees of sets of natural numbers can be identified with the degrees of difficulty of enumerating neighborhood bases of points in a universal second-countable $T_0$-space (e.g. the $\omega$-power of the Sierpi\'nski space).…
In 1955 George Mackey suggested that there is a fundamental dichotomy in the unitary representation theory of locally compact second countable groups. He felt that there cannnot be a reasonable classification theory for the unitary…
A complex-analytic structure within the unit disk of the complex plane is presented. It can be used to represent and analyze a large class of real functions. It is shown that any integrable real function can be obtained by means of the…
The purpose of this note is twofold. In the first part we observe that two finitely generated non-amenable groups are quasi-isometric if and only if they admit topologically orbit equivalent Cantor minimal actions. In particular, free…
Let $A$ and $B$ be finite ordered sets. We show that if the ordered sets of isotone self-maps $A^A$ and $B^B$ (ordered pointwise) are isomorphic, then $A$ and $B$ are isomorphic. This resolves a question originating with D. Duffus in 1978,…
The ternary Cantor set $C$, constructed by George Cantor in 1883, is probably the best-known example of a perfect nowhere-dense set in the real line, but as we will see later, it is not the only one. The present article will delve into the…
A set A of positive integers is called a perfect difference set if every nonzero integer has an unique representation as the difference of two elements of A. We construct dense perfect difference sets from dense Sidon sets. As a consequence…
We introduce the notion of uniform exactness, or uniform amenability at infinity, for discrete groups and prove it for a wide class of groups containing free groups and their limit groups. This shows a novel strong convergence phenomenon…
We show that for any smooth Hausdorff manifolds M and N, which are not necessarily second countable, paracompact or connected, any isomorphism from the algebra of smooth (real or complex) functions on N to the algebra of smooth functions on…
We obtain a complete description for a probability measure to be doubling on an arbitrarily given uniform Cantor set. The question of which doubling measures on such a Cantor set can be extended to a doubling measure on [0; 1] is also…
Euclidean functions with values in an arbitrary well-ordered set were first considered in a 1949 work of Motzkin and studied in more detail in work of Fletcher, Samuel and Nagata in the 1970's and 1980's. Here these results are revisited,…
Let $Q=(q_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of integers greater than or equal to 2. We say that a real number $x$ in $[0,1)$ is {\it $Q$-distribution normal} if the sequence $(q_1q_2... q_n x)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is uniformly distributed mod 1.…
We exhibit a single interval map (called universal map) that admits all those orbit patterns which are available in the first Sharkovsky class. An interval map is said to be in the first Sharkovsky class if every periodic point of it is a…
We introduce a notion of natural orderings of elements of finite connected quandles of order $n$. When the elements of such a quandle $Q$ are already ordered naturally, any automophism on $Q$ is a natural ordering. Although there are many…
The countable condensation on a linear order $L$ is the equivalence relation $\sim_\omega$ defined by declaring $x \sim_\omega y$ when the set of points between $x$ and $y$ is countable. We characterize the linear orders $L$ that condense…
This paper is concerned with universality properties of composition operators $C_f$, where the symbol $f$ is given by a transcendental entire function restricted to parts of its Fatou set. We determine universality of $C_f$ when $f$ is…
