Let $\phi(x) = |1 - \frac 1x|$ for all $x > 0$. Then we extend $\phi(x)$ in the usual way to become a continuous map from the compact topological (but not metric) space $[0, \infty]$ onto itself which also maps the set of irrational points…
Previous results on the non trivial solution of the $\Phi^4$-equations of motion for the Green's functions in the Euclidean\ space (of $0\leq r\leq 4$ dimensions) in the Wightman Quantum Field theory framework, are reviewed in the $0-$…
When $\varphi$ and $\psi$ are linear-fractional self-maps of the unit ball $B_N$ in ${\mathbb C}^N$, $N\geq 1$, we show that the difference $C_{\varphi}-C_{\psi}$ cannot be non-trivially compact on either the Hardy space $H^2(B_N)$ or any…
A random matrix theory approach is applied in order to analyze the localization properties of local spectral density for a generic system of coupled quantum states with strong static imperfection in the unperturbed energy levels. The system…
We study diffeomorphisms of compact, oriented surfaces, developing methods of distinguishing those which have positive factorizations into Dehn twists from those which satisfy the weaker condition of right veering. We use these to construct…
Inspired by Ol'shanskii's work, we provide an axiomatic framework to describe certain irreducible unitary representations of non-discrete unimodular totally disconnected locally compact groups. We then look at the applications to certain…
In this paper, we study a class of Banach spaces, called \phi-spaces. In a natural way, we associate a measure of weak compactness in such spaces and prove an analogue of Sadovskii fixed point theorem for weakly sequentially continuous…
We show that any separated essentially finite-type map $f$ of noetherian schemes globally factors as $f = hi$ where $i$ is an injective localization map and $h$ a separated finite-type map. In particular, via Nagata's compactification…
Piecewise affine functions on subsets of $\mathbb R^m$ were studied in \cite{Ovchinnikov:02,Aliprantis:06a,Aliprantis:07a,Aliprantis:07}. In this paper we study a more general concept of a locally piecewise affine function. We characterize…
We characterise absolutely dilatable completely positive maps on the space of all bounded operators on a Hilbert space that are also bimodular over a given von Neumann algebra as rotations by a suitable unitary on a larger Hilbert space…
We give sufficient conditions, in terms of the existence of unbounded derivations satisfying certain properties, which ensure that a II$_1$ factor $M$ is prime or has at most one Cartan subalgebra. For instance, we prove that if there…
We study dynamical semigroups of positive, but not completely positive maps on finite-dimensional bipartite systems and analyze properties of their generators in relation to non-decomposability and bound-entanglement. An example of…
The strong factorization conjecture states that a proper birational map between smooth algebraic varieties over a field of characteristic zero can be factored as a sequence of smooth blowups followed by a sequence of smooth blowdowns. We…
Let $\Phi$ be a unital completely positive (UCP) map on the space of operators on some Hilbert space. We assume that $\Phi$ is $\eta$-idempotent, namely, $\|\Phi^2-\Phi\|_{\mathrm{cb}} \le\eta$, and construct an associated…
The question of 'what can be computed locally?' lies at the heart of distributed computing in networks. As established in Naor and Stockmeyer's seminal paper (STOC 1993), this question is undecidable, even for graph problems whose solutions…
We provide a characterization for operator valued completely bounded linear maps on Hilbert $C^*$-modules in terms of $\varphi$-maps. Also, we show that for every operator valued completely positive map $\varphi$ on a $C^*$-algebra…
Let $Conf^{lf}_{\infty}(\C)$ and $C^{lf}_{\infty}(\C)$ denote the locally finite infinite ordered and unordered configuration spaces of the complex plane. We prove that both $Conf^{lf}_{\infty}(\C)$ and $C^{lf}_{\infty}(\C)$ are aspherical.…
We show that for a given initial point the typical, in the sense of Baire category, nonexpansive compact valued mapping $F$ has the following properties: there is a unique sequence of successive approximations and this sequence converges to…
It is shown that a trace invariant projection map, i.e. a positive unital idempotent map, of a finite dimensional C*-algebra into itself is non-decomposable if and only if it is atomic, or equivalently not the sum of a 2-positive and a…
In this note we study some properties of topological entropy for non-compact non-metrizable spaces. We prove that if a uniformly continuous self-map $f$ of a uniform space has topological shadowing property then the map $f$ has positive…
