A product of compact normal spaces is normal; the product of a countably infinite collection of non-trivial spaces is normal if and only if it is countably paracompact and each of its finite sub-products is normal; if all powers of a space…

We prove that in characteristic zero the multiplication of sections of dominant line bundles on a complete symmetric variety $X=\bar{G/H}$ is a surjective map. As a consequence the cone defined by a complete linear system over $X$, or over…

Let $T\in\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ and $T=U|T|$ be its polar decomposition. We proved that (i) if $T$ is log-hyponormal or $p$-hyponormal and $U^n=U^\ast$ for some $n$, then $T$ is normal; (ii) if the spectrum of $U$ is contained in some…

We show that the space of continuous functions over a compact space X admits an equivalent pointwise-lowersemicontinuous locally uniformly rotund norm whenever X admits a fully closed map onto a compact Y such that C(Y) and the spaces of…

Let $X_0, X_1, ..., X_k$ with $k \in \IN\cup\{\infty\}$ be sequence spaces $($finite or infinite dimensional$)$ over $\IC$ or $\IR$ with absolute norms $N_i$ for $i = 0, ..., k$, $($i.e., with 1-unconditional bases$)$ such that $\dim X_0 =…

If $G$ is a complex simply connected semisimple algebraic group and if $\lambda$ is a dominant weight, we consider the compactification $X_\lambda$ in the projectivisation of $\End(V(\lambda))$ obtained as the closure of the $G\times…

Let $X$ be a perfectoid space with tilt $X^\flat$. We construct a canonical map $\theta:\operatorname{Pic} X^\flat\to\lim\operatorname{Pic} X$ where the (inverse) limit is taken over the $p$-power map, and show that $\theta$ is an…

We show that the structure of proper holomorphic maps between the $n$-fold symmetric products, $n\geq 2$, of a pair of non-compact Riemann surfaces $X$ and $Y$, provided these are reasonably nice, is very rigid. Specifically, any such map…

The regular objects in various categories, such as maps, hypermaps or covering spaces, can be identified with the normal subgroups N of a given group \Gamma, with quotient group isomorphic to \Gamma/N. It is shown how to enumerate such…

The theory of linear transports along paths in vector bundles, generalizing the parallel transports generated by linear connections, is developed. The normal frames for them are defined as ones in which their matrices are the identity…

Let X be a compact Kaehler manifold. We expect that any direct sum decomposition of the tangent bundle T(X) comes from a splitting of the universal covering space of X as a product of manifolds, in such a way that the given decomposition of…

We prove that the multiplication of sections of globally generated line bundles on a model wonderful variety M of simply connected type is always surjective. This follows by a general argument which works for every wonderful variety and…

For a space $X$ let $\mathcal{K}(X)$ be the set of compact subsets of $X$ ordered by inclusion. A map $\phi:\mathcal{K}(X) \to \mathcal{K}(Y)$ is a relative Tukey quotient if it carries compact covers to compact covers. When there is such a…

Colimits that satisfy the Van Kampen condition have interesting exactness properties. We show that the elementary presentation of the Van Kampen condition is actually a characterisation of a universal property in the associated bicategory…

Sturmfels-Sullivant conjectured that the cut polytope of a graph is normal if and only if the graph has no K_5 minor. In the present paper, it is proved that the normality of cut polytopes of graphs is a minor closed property. By using this…

A graph is called normal if its vertex set can be covered by cliques and also by stable sets, such that every such clique and stable set have non-empty intersection. This notion is due to Korner, who introduced the class of normal graphs as…

A stratified pseudomanifold is normal if its links are connected. A normalization of a stratified pseudomanifold $X$ is a normal stratified pseudomanifold $Y$ together with a finite-to-one projection $n:Y\to X$ satisfying a local condition…

It is shown that if T is a connected nontrivial graph and X is an arbitrary finite simplicial complex, then there is a graph G such that the complex Hom(T,G) is homotopy equivalent to X. The proof is constructive, and uses a nerve lemma.…

We give conditions for when the tensor product of two positive maps between matrix algebras is a positive map. This happens when one map belongs to a symmetric mapping cone and the other to the dual cone. Necessary and sufficient conditions…

By definition, the intersection of finitely many open sets of any topological space is open. Nachbin observed that, more generally, the intersection of compactly many open sets is open. Moreover, Nachbin applied this to obtain elegant…
