We are interested in representations and characterizations of lattice polynomial functions f:L^n -> L, where L is a given bounded distributive lattice. In companion papers [arXiv 0901.4888, arXiv 0808.2619], we investigated certain…
Let $K[HK_{\Theta}]$ denote the Hecke-Kiselman algebra of a finite oriented graph $\Theta$ over an algebraically closed field $K$. All irreducible representations, and the corresponding maximal ideals of $K[HK_{\Theta}]$, are characterized…
Given a natural number $n \geq 1$, the odometer semigroup $O_n$, also known as the adding machine or the Baumslag-Solitar monoid with two generators, is a well-known object in group theory. This paper examines the odometer semigroup in…
We show that every maximally monotone operator of Fitzpatrick-Phelps type defined on a real Banach space must be of dense type. This provides an affirmative answer to a question posed by Stephen Simons in 2001 and implies that various…
The Maxwell operator in a 3D cylinder is considered. The coefficients are assumed to be scalar functions depending on the longitudinal variable only. Such operator is represented as a sum of countable set of matrix differential operators of…
The paper is devoted to establishing relationships between global and local monotonicity, as well as their maximality versions, for single-valued and set-valued mappings between finite-dimensional and infinite-dimensional spaces. We first…
For ordered normed vector spaces $X, Y$, we consider the space $\mathcal{L}(X,Y)$ of bounded linear operators and characterize when its cone of positive operators has non-empty interior. When this is satisfied, we give a functional…
We consider a version of a famous open problem formulated by Kadison, asking whether bounded representations of operator algebras are automatically completely bounded. We investigate this question in the context of amenable operator…
We prove an abstract theorem of maximal hypoellipticy showing that in an abstract calculus under some natural assumptions, an operator is maximally hypoelliptic if and only if its principal symbol is left invertible. We then show that our…
The inverse problem for representation functions takes as input a triple (X,f,L), where X is a countable semigroup, f : X --> N_0 \cup {\infty} a function, L : a_1 x_1 + ... + a_h x_h an X-linear form and asks for a subset A \subseteq X…
In this paper we study a class of quadratic operators named by Volterra operators on infinite dimensional space. We prove that such operators have infinitely many fixed points and the set of Volterra operators forms a convex compact set. In…
The local boundedness of classes of operators is analyzed on different subsets directly related to their Fitzpatrick functions and characterizations of the topological vector spaces for which that local boundedness holds is given in terms…
We show that a bounded quasinilpotent operator $T$ acting on an infinite dimensional Banach space has an invariant subspace if and only if there exists a rank one operator $F$ and a scalar $\alpha\in\mathbb{C}$, $\alpha\neq 0$, $\alpha\neq…
We prove that any connected reductive group of semisimple $F$-rank 1 over a $p$-adic field admits an irreducible admissible supersingular mod-$p$ representation. This establishes one of the missing cases in Vign\'eras' existence proof for…
We study operators on the Kalton-Peck Banach space $Z_2$ from various points of view: matrix representations, examples, spectral properties and operator ideals. For example, we prove that there are non-compact, strictly singular operators…
The question whether or not the sum of two maximal monotone operators is maximal monotone under Rockafellar's constraint qualification - that is, whether or not "the sum theorem" is true - is the most famous open problem in Monotone…
Let $ N \in \mathbb{N} $, $ N \geq 2 $, be given. Motivated by wavelet analysis, we consider a class of normal representations of the $ C^* $-algebra $ \mathfrak{A}_{N} $ on two unitary generators $ U $, $ V $ subject to the relation \[…
Let $N$ be a finite set of cardinality $n$, and $a\in N$. A submodular function $f$ on $N$ with $f(a)=1$ is defined to be $a$-reduced if, for any decomposition $f=g+h$ into submodular functions where $h$ does not depend on $a$, it follows…
We provide a concise analysis about what is known regarding when the closure of the domain of a maximally monotone operator on an arbitrary real Banach space is convex. In doing so, we also provide an affirmative answer to a problem posed…
