Let $\I$ be an ideal on $\N$ which is either analytic or coanalytic. Assume that $(f_n)$ is a sequence of functions with the Baire property from a Polish space $X$ into a complete metric space $Z$, which is divergent on a comeager set. We…

The embedding theorem arises in several problems from analysis and geometry. The purpose of this paper is to provide a deeper understanding of analysis and geometry with a particular focus on embedding theorems on spaces of homogeneous type…

Let $\{A_{i,n}\}$ be a triangular array of elements in a Banach algebra, whose norms do not grow too fast, and whose row averages converge to $A$. Let $\sigma \in S(n)$ be a permutation drawn uniformly at random. If the array only contains…

We have recently introduced the trimming property for a complete Riemannian manifold $N^{n}$ as a necessary and sufficient condition for bounded maps to be strongly dense in $W^{1, p}(B^m; N^{n})$ when $p \in \{1, \dotsc, m\}$. We prove in…

We consider gradient fields $(\phi_x:x\in \mathbb{Z}^d)$ whose law takes the Gibbs--Boltzmann form $Z^{-1}\exp\{-\sum_{< x,y>}V(\phi_y-\phi_x)\}$, where the sum runs over nearest neighbors. We assume that the potential $V$ admits the…

We prove new concentration estimates for random variables that are functionals of a Poisson measure defined on a general measure space. Our results are specifically adapted to geometric applications, and are based on a pervasive use of a…

In this note we announce that under general hypotheses, wavelet-type expansions (of functions in $L^p,\ 1\leq p \leq \infty$, in one or more dimensions) converge pointwise almost everywhere, and identify the Lebesgue set of a function as a…

The Ghahramani-Lau conjecture is established; in other words, the measure algebra of every locally compact group is strongly Arens irregular. To this end, we introduce and study certain new classes of measures (called approximately…

In 1988, Sibe Marde\v{s}i\'{c} and Andrei Prasolov isolated an inverse system $\mathbf{A}$ with the property that the additivity of strong homology on any class of spaces which includes the closed subsets of Euclidean space would entail…

Henle, Mathias, and Woodin proved that, provided that $\omega\rightarrow(\omega)^{\omega}$ holds in a model $M$ of ZF, then forcing with $([\omega]^{\omega},\subseteq^*)$ over $M$ adds no new sets of ordinals, thus earning the name a…

We prove the hyperplane absolute winning property of weighted inhomogeneous badly approximable vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$. This answers a question by Beresnevich--Nesharim--Yang and extends the main result of [Geometric and Functional…

In a seminal paper, Choquet introduced an integral formula to extend a monotone increasing setfunction on a sigma-algebra to a (nonlinear) functional on bounded measurable functions. The most important special case is when the setfunction…

A classical result of Halmos asserts that among measure preserving transformations the weak mixing property is generic. We extend Halmos' result to the collection of ergodic extensions of a fixed, but arbitrary, ergodic transformation…

We define a $\sigma$-centered notion of forcing that forces the existence of a Boolean algebra with the Grothendieck property and without the Nikodym property. In particular the existence of such an algebra is consistent with the negation…

For a locally convex vector space (l.c.v.s.) $E$ and an absolutely convex neighborhood $V$ of zero, a bounded subset $A$ of $E$ is said to be $V$-dentable (respectively, $V$-f-dentable) if for any $\epsilon>0$ there exists an $x\in A$ so…

In this paper, we prove first that the iterates of a mean nonexpansive map defined on a weakly compact, convex set converge weakly to a fixed point in the presence of Opial's property and asymptotic regularity at a point. Next, we prove the…

We develop a toolbox for forcing over arbitrary models of set theory without the axiom of choice. In particular, we introduce a variant of the countable chain condition and prove an iteration theorem that applies to many classical forcings…

The author establishes some geometric criteria for a Haj\lasz-Sobolev $\dot M^{s,\,p}_\ball$-extension (resp. $\dot M^{s,\,p}_\ball$-imbedding) domain of ${\mathbb R}^n$ with $n\ge2$, $s\in(0,\,1]$ and $p\in[n/s,\,\infty]$ (resp.…

We prove that almost all random subsets of a finite vector space are weak Salem sets (small Fourier coefficient), which extends a result of Hayes to a different probability model.

We prove that if $\Sigma_{\mathbf A}(\mathbb N)$ is an irreducible Markov shift space over $\mathbb N$ and $f:\Sigma_{\mathbf A}(\mathbb N) \rightarrow \mathbb R$ is coercive with bounded variation then there exists a maximizing probability…
