Let $E$ be a real Banach space. For $x,y \in E,$ we follow R.James in saying that $x$ is orthogonal to $y$ if $\|x+\alpha y\|\geq \|x\|$ for every $\alpha \in R$. We prove that every operator from $E$ into itself preserving orthogonality is…
There is a well-known correspondence between infinite trees and ultrametric spaces which can be interpreted as an equivalence of categories and comes from considering the end space of the tree. In this equivalence, uniformly continuous maps…
Let H\subset\GL(V) be a connected complex reductive group where V is a finite-dimensional complex vector space. Let v\in V and let G=\{g\in\GL(V)\mid gHv = Hv\}. Following Ra\"is we say that the orbit Hv is \emph{characteristic for H} if…
If $\H$ is a Hilbert space, $A$ is a positive bounded linear operator on $\cH$ and $\cS$ is a closed subspace of $\cH$, the relative position between $\cS$ and $A^{-1}(\cS \orto)$ establishes a notion of compatibility. We show that the…
A relational structure is \emph{strongly indivisible} if for every partition $M = X_0 \sqcup X_1$, the induced substructure on $X_0$ or $X_1$ is isomorphic to $\mathcal{M}$. Cameron (1997) showed that a graph is strongly indivisible if and…
Consider a unital C*-algebra A, a von Neumann algebra M, a unital sub-C*-algebra C of A and a unital *-homomorphism $\pi$ from C to M. Let u: A --> M be a decomposable map (i.e. a linear combination of completely positive maps) which is a…
We define the notions of a compact perception pair, compactification of a perception pair, and compactification of a space of group equivariant non-expansive operators. We prove that every perception pair with totally bounded space of…
Lineability is a property enjoyed by some subsets within a vector space X. A subset A of X is called lineable whenever A contains, except for zero, an infinite dimensional vector subspace. If, additionally, X is endowed with richer…
This is the first of two papers which aim to understand quasi-isometries of a subclass of unimodular split solvable Lie groups. In the present paper, we show that locally (in a coarse sense), a quasi-isometry between two groups in this…
We say that a theory $T$ is intermediate under effective reducibility if the isomorphism problems among its computable models is neither hyperarithmetic nor on top under effective reducibility. We prove that if an infinitary sentence $T$ is…
We show that the real line R viewed as a vector space is of uncountable (algebraic) dimension over the scalar field Q of rational numbers. We then build an operator J which maps {R, Q} onto {R, Q}, is Q-linear and whose graph is scattered…
Given an infinite-dimensional Banach space $X$ and a Banach space $Y$ with no finite cotype, we determine whether or not every continuous linear operator from $X$ to $Y$ is absolutely $(q;p)$-summing for almost all choices of $p$ and $q$,…
We study linear orderings expanded by functions for successor and predecessor. The successor and predecessor on linear orderings capture the relatively intrinsically computably enumerable information about orderings in much the same way…
We call a diagram D absolutely cartesian if F(D) is homotopy cartesian for all homotopy functors F. This is a sensible notion for diagrams in categories C where Goodwillie's calculus of functors may be set up for functors with domain C. We…
The $\lambda$-perfect maps, a generalization of perfect maps (continuous closed maps with compact fibers) are presented. Using $P_\lambda$-spaces and the concept of $\lambda$-compactness some results regarding $\lambda$-perfect maps will be…
We consider pairs of operators $A,B\in B(H)$, where $H$ is a Hilbert space, such that there exist a linear isometry $f$ from the span of $\{A,B\}$ into $\mathbb{C}^2$ mapping $A,B$ into orthonormal vectors. We prove some necessary…
A space $X$ is said to be hereditarily indecomposable if no two (infinite dimensional) subspaces of $X$ are in a direct sum. In this paper, we show that if $X$ is a complex hereditarily indecomposable Banach space, then every operator from…
Suppose $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is nowhere dense. If $(\mathbb{R},<,+,(x \mapsto \lambda x)_{\lambda \in \mathbb{R} }, E)$ does not define every bounded Borel subset of every $\mathbb{R}^n$ then for every $s > 0$ we have $$ | \{ k \in…
Let k be an infinite field, I an infinite set, V a k-vector-space, and g:k^I\to V a k-linear map. It is shown that if dim_k(V) is not too large (under various hypotheses on card(k) and card(I), if it is finite, respectively countable,…
A bounded linear operator between Banach spaces is called {\it completely continuous} if it carries weakly convergent sequences into norm convergent sequences. Isolated is a universal operator for the class of non-completely-continuous…
