We prove three main results: all Langlands-Shahidi automorphic $L$-functions over function fields are rational; after twists by highly ramified characters our automorphic $L$-functions become polynomials; and, if $\pi$ is a globally generic…

Let $A$ be a unital operator algebra. Let us assume that every {\it bounded\/} unital homomorphism $u\colon \ A\to B(H)$ is similar to a {\it contractive\/} one. Let $\text{\rm Sim}(u) = \inf\{\|S\|\, \|S^{-1}\|\}$ where the infimum runs…

We prove that, given a planar bi-Lipschitz homeomorphism $u$ defined on the boundary of the unit square, it is possible to extend it to a function $v$ of the whole square, in such a way that $v$ is still bi-Lipschitz. In particular,…

It is a longstanding conjecture that given a subset $E$ of a metric space, if $E$ has finite Hausdorff measure in dimension $\alpha\ge 0$ and $\mathscr{H}^\alpha\llcorner E$ has unit density almost everywhere, then $E$ is an…

Let $E$, $F$ be separable Hilbert spaces, and assume that $E$ is infinite-dimensional. We show that for every continuous mapping $f:E\to F$ and every continuous function $\varepsilon: E\to (0, \infty)$ there exists a $C^{\infty}$ mapping…

Let $L(s)=\sum_{n=1}^{+\infty}\dfrac{a(n)}{n^s}$ be a Dirichlet series were $a(n)$ is a bounded completely multiplicative function. We prove that if $L(s)$ extends to a holomorphic function on the open half space $\Re s >1-\delta$,…

Given a degree 1 function $F\in\mathcal{S}^{\sharp}$ and a real number $\alpha$, we consider the linear twist $F(s,\alpha)$, proving that it satisfies a functional equation reflecting $s$ into $1-s$, which can be seen as a Hurwitz-Lerch…

Let $D$ be the open unit disc in the complex plane. We denote by $\mathbb{C}$ the set of complex numbers and consider any compact set $K$ which is disjoint from $D$ and which also has connected complement. Let $A(K)$ denote all the…

We show that any measurable solution of the cohomological equation for a H\"older linear cocycle over a hyperbolic system coincides almost everywhere with a H\"older solution. More generally, we show that every measurable invariant…

We generalize a result by Alberti, showing that, if a first-order linear differential operator $\mathcal{A}$ belongs to a certain class, then any $L^1$ function is the absolutely continuous part of a measure $\mu$ satisfying…

Let $X$ be a Banach space with a separable dual. We prove that $X$ embeds isomorphically into a $\cL_\infty$ space $Z$ whose dual is isomorphic to $\ell_1$. If, moreover, $U$ is a space so that $U$ and $X$ are totally incomparable, then we…

We study linear and algebraic structures in sets of bounded holomorphic functions on the ball which have large cluster sets at every possible point (i.e., every point on the sphere in several complex variables and every point of the closed…

Let $D$ be a domain in the complex plane $\mathbb C$. It follows from first part of our work that if a non-zero holomorphic function $f$ on $D$ vanishes on a sequence ${\sf Z}\subset D$ and satisfies $|f|\leq M$ on $D$, where $M$ is a…

Let $\lambda$ be a positive number, and let $(x_j:j\in\mathbb Z)\subset\mathbb R$ be a fixed Riesz-basis sequence, namely, $(x_j)$ is strictly increasing, and the set of functions $\{\mathbb R\ni t\mapsto e^{ix_jt}:j\in\mathbb Z\}$ is a…

Let $p$ be an idempotent ultrafilter over $\mathbb{N}$. For a positive integer $N$, let ${\cal P}_{\leq N}$ denote the additive group of polynomials $P\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ with ${\rm deg}\, P\leq N$ and $P(0)=0$. Given a unitary operator $U$…

The classical ``$H=W$" theorem establishes the identity between two function spaces on an arbitrary nonempty open set in the Euclidean spaces: the space $W$ defined via weak derivatives, and the space $H$ defined as the closure of smooth…

The Riesz-Markov theorem identifies any positive, finite, and regular Borel measure on the complex unit circle with a positive linear functional on the continuous functions. By the Weierstrass approximation theorem, the continuous functions…

A group, $\fl{H}$, of automorphisms of a totally disconnected locally compact group, $G$, is flat if there is a compact open $U\leq G$ such that the index $[\alpha(U):U\cap \alpha(U)]$ is mininimized for every $\alpha\in\fl{H}$. The…
