We prove that it is relatively consistent with $\mathrm{ZFC}$ that every strong measure zero subset of the real line is meager-additive while there are uncountable strong measure zero sets (i.e., Borel's conjecture fails). This answers a…
We prove rigidity type results on the vanishing of stable (co)homology for modules of finite complete intersection dimension, results which generalize and improve upon known results. We also introduce a notion of pre-rigidity, which…
A classical theorem of Hechler asserts that the structure $\left(\omega^\omega,\le^*\right)$ is universal in the sense that for any $\sigma$-directed poset P with no maximal element, there is a ccc forcing extension in which…
Let $A$ be a unital simple separable exact C$^*$-algebra which is approximately divisible and of real rank zero. We prove that the set of positive elements in $A$ with a fixed non-compact Cuntz class has vanishing homotopy groups. Combined…
For any additive functor from modules (or, more generally, from an abelian category with enough projectives or injectives), we construct long sequences tying up together the derived functors, the satellites, and the stabilizations of the…
We prove that if a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a closed monotone symplectic manifold with semisimple quantum homology has more contractible fixed points, counted homologically, than the total dimension of the homology of the manifold,…
A conjecture of Kadison and Kastler from 1972 asks whether sufficiently close operator algebras in a natural uniform sense must be small unitary perturbations of one another. For $n\geq 3$ and a free ergodic probability measure preserving…
Let $D_d(m) = \mathrm{Cay}((\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^d, {e_0, \ldots, e_{d-1}})$ denote the directed Cayley graph on the positive coordinate basis, equivalently the Cartesian product of $d$ directed cycles of length $m$. The equal side…
Brezis and Mironescu have announced several years ago that for a compact manifold $N^n \subset \mathbb{R}^\nu$ and for real numbers $0 < s < 1$ and $1 \le p < \infty$ the class $C^\infty(\overline{Q}^m; N^n)$ of smooth maps on the cube with…
We prove that, unless assuming additional set theoretical axioms, there are no reflexive space without unconditional sequences of density the continuum. We give for every integer $n$ there are normalized weakly-null sequences of length…
First we confirm a conjecture asserting that any compact K\"ahler manifold $N$ with $\Ric^\perp>0$ must be simply-connected by applying a new viscosity consideration to Whitney's comass of $(p, 0)$-forms. Secondly we prove the projectivity…
Mittag-Leffler modules occur naturally in algebra, algebraic geometry, and model theory, [18], [12], [17]. If $R$ is a non-right perfect ring, then it is known that in contrast with the classes of all projective and flat modules, the class…
It is well known from universal algebra that, for every signature $\Sigma$, there exist algebras over $\Sigma$ which are absolutely free, meaning that they do not satisfy any identities or, alternatively, satisfy the universal mapping…
The interplay between cosmology and strongly coupled dynamics can yield transient spectral features that vanish at late times, but which may leave behind phenomenological signatures in the spectrum of primordial fluctuations. Of particular…
We prove an intrinsic analogue of Hawking's rigidity theorem for extremal horizons in arbitrary dimensions: any compact cross-section of a rotating extremal horizon in a spacetime satisfying the null energy condition must admit a Killing…
Suppose that the critical locus $\Sigma$ of a complex analytic function $f$ on affine space is, itself, a space with an isolated singular point at the origin $\0$, and that the Milnor number of $f$ restricted to normal slices of…
We study the Hurewicz map h from the homotopy groups of a spectrum X to the R-homology of its 0th space X(0), where R is a connective commutative S-algebra. We prove that the decreasing filtration of the domain of h associated to an R-based…
Vasiliev's type A higher spin theories in AdS4 have been conjectured to be dual to the U(N) or O(N) singlet sectors in 3-d conformal field theories with N-component scalar fields. We compare the O(N^0) correction to the 3-sphere free energy…
Considering the deeper reasons of the appearance of a remarkable counterexample by J.~Kaad and M.~Skeide [17] we consider situations in which two Hilbert C*-modules $M \subset N$ with $M^\bot = \{ 0 \}$ over a fixed C*-algebra $A$ of…
We explore whether the axion which solves the strong CP problem can naturally be much lighter than the canonical QCD axion. The $Z_\mathcal{N}$ symmetry proposed by Hook, with $\mathcal{N}$ mirror and degenerate worlds coexisting in Nature…
