Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra. We equip the associated noncommutative $L_p$-spaces with their natural operator space structure introduced by Pisier via complex interpolation. On the other hand, for $1<p<\infty$ let…

In this paper, we show that under the condition $ 1<p_-, q_-, p_+, q_+<\infty$, the space $\ell^{q(\cdot)} (L^{p(\cdot)})$ is reflexive. In this way we give an answer to open problem posed by H\"ast\"o in 2017 about the reflexivity of the…

For any finite point set in $D$-dimensional space equipped with the 1-norm, we present random linear embeddings to $k$-dimensional space, with a new metric, having the following properties. For any pair of points from the point set that are…

We prove that a WLD subspace of the space $\ell_\infty^c(\Gamma)$ consisting of all bounded, countably supported functions on a set $\Gamma$ embeds isomorphically into $\ell_\infty$ if and only if it does not contain isometric copies of…

In this paper, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions under which two sequence variable Lebesgue spaces $\ell_{p_n}$ and $\ell_{q_n}$ are equivalent and also describe conditions under which the natural embeddings $id:\ell_{p_n} \to…

Ghostly ideals are among the most mysterious objects in coarse index theory. In this paper, we show that if a metric space $X$ with bounded geometry admits a coarse embedding into an $\ell^p$-space ($1 \le p < \infty$), then the canonical…

We show that if the Banach-Mazur distance between an n-dimensional normed space X and ell infinity is at most 3/2, then there exist n+1 equidistant points in X. By a well-known result of Alon and Milman, this implies that an arbitrary…

In this paper we establish well posedness of the Neumann problem with boundary data in $L^2$ or the Sobolev space $\dot W^2_{-1}$, in the half space, for linear elliptic differential operators with coefficients that are constant in the…

For a non-compact finite thickness building whose Davis apartment is an orientable pseudomanifold, we compute the supremum of the set of $p>1$ such that its top dimensional reduced $\ell^p$-cohomology is nonzero. We adapt the non-vanishing…

We prove that if a quasiconvex subset $X$ of a metric space $Y$ has finite Nagata dimension and is Lipschitz $k$-connected or admits Euclidean isoperimetric inequalities up to dimension $k$ for some $k$ then $X$ is isoperimetrically…

We prove that the sequence space $\ell_{p,q}$ does not embed into $L_{p,q}(\mathcal{M},\tau)$ for any noncommutative probability space $(\mathcal{M},\tau)$, $1< p<\infty $, $1\le q<\infty$, $p\ne q$. Several applications to the isomorphic…

Let $E$ be a two-dimensional real normed space. In this paper we show that if the unit circle of $E$ does not contain any line segment such that the distance between its endpoints is greater than 1, then every transformation $\phi\colon…

We show that compact Riemannian manifolds, regarded as metric spaces with their global geodesic distance, cannot contain a number of rigid structures such as (a) arbitrarily large regular simplices or (b) arbitrarily long sequences of…

For $n\geq 2, p<2$ and $q>2,$ does there exist an $n$-dimensional Banach space different from Hilbert spaces which is isometric to subspaces of both $L_{p}$ and $L_{q}$? Generalizing the construction from the paper "Zonoids whose polars are…

We prove some noncommutative analogues of a theorem by Plotkin and Rudin about isometries between subspaces of Lp-spaces. Let 0<p<\infty, p not an even integer. The main result of this paper states that in the category of unital subspaces…

We discuss generalizations of the well-known theorem of Hilbert that there is no complete isometric immersion of the hyperbolic plane into Euclidean 3-space. We show that this problem is expressed very naturally as the question of the…

Brown-Guentner and Haagerup-Przybyszewska showed that every discrete group admits a proper affine isometric action on the universal Banach space $\bigoplus_{p=1}^{\infty} \ell^{2p}(\mathbb{N}),$ taken as the $\ell^{2}$-direct sum, and hence…

In this paper we prove that $L_{p}$ does not admit an equivariant coarse embedding into $\ell_p$ i.e there is no proper, affine, isometric action of $L_{p}$, viewed as a group under addition with the standard metric $|| . ||_p$, on…

Although the Nash theorem solves the isometric embedding problem, matters are inherently more involved if one is further seeking an embedding that is well-behaved from the standpoint of submanifold geometry. More generally, consider a…

Let $\eps >0$. We prove that there exists an operator $T_\eps:\ell_2\to\ell_2$, such that for any polynomial $P$ we have $\|{P(T)}\| \leq(1+\eps)\|{P}\|_\infty$, but which is not similar to a contraction, {\it i.e.} there does not exist an…
