A finite group $G$ is called $\psi$-divisible if $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of $G$, where $\psi(H)$ and $\psi(G)$ are the sum of element orders of $H$ and $G$, respectively. In this paper, we extend a result provided in [10], by…

We present a practical framework to prove, in a simple way, two-terms asymptotic expansions for Fourier integrals $$ {\mathcal I}(t) = \int_{\mathbb R}({\rm e}^{it\phi(x)}-1) {\rm d} \mu(x) $$ where $\mu$ is a probability measure on…

Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group with at least one absolutely simple factor S such that R-rank(S) is at least 2, and let $\Gamma$ be a uniform lattice in G. (a) If $CH$ holds, then $\Gamma$ has a unique asymptotic cone up to…

We study the notion of irreducibility of semigroup morphisms. Given an alphabet $\Sigma$, a morphism $\varphi:\Sigma^+\rightarrow\Sigma^+$ is irreducible if any factorisation $\varphi=\psi_2\circ\psi_1$ can only be satisfied if $\psi_1$ or…

We consider an abstract pseudo-Hamiltonian for the nuclear optical model, given by a dissipative operator of the form $H = H_V - i C^* C$, where $H_V = H_0 + V$ is self-adjoint and $C$ is a bounded operator. We study the wave operators…

We classify all essential extensions of the form $$0 \rightarrow \W \rightarrow \D \rightarrow A \rightarrow 0$$ where $\W$ is the unique separable simple C*-algebra with a unique tracial state, with finite nuclear dimension and with…

We investigate maximal abelian subalgebras (masas) in separably acting type $II_1$ factors. We use the notion of distance between masas which we introduced in an earlier paper in this archive, OA/0107075. The main result of the paper is to…

The classical Weyl-von Neumann theorem states that for any self-adjoint operator $A$ in a separable Hilbert space $\mathfrak H$ there exists a (non-unique) Hilbert-Schmidt operator $C = C^*$ such that the perturbed operator $A+C$ has purely…

Assuming a unitarily invariant norm $|||\cdot|||$ is given on a two-sided ideal of bounded linear operators acting on a separable Hilbert space, it induces some unitarily invariant norms $|||\cdot|||$ on matrix algebras $\mathcal{M}_n$ for…

We examine the notion of $\alpha$-strong singularity for subfactors of a \IIi factor, which is a metric quantity that relates the distance between a unitary in the factor and a subalgebra with the distance between that subalgebra and its…

Let $\Phi:TM\to TM$ be a positive-semidefinite symmetric operator of class $C^1$ defined on a complete non-compact manifold $M$ isometrically immersed in a Hadamard space $\bar{M}$. In this paper, we given conditions on the operator $\Phi$…

Let $U\subset K$ be an open and dense subset of a compact metric space and let $\{\Phi_t\}_{t\ge0}$ be a Markov semigroup on the space of bounded Borel measurable functions on $U$ with the strong Feller property. Suppose that for each…

We prove that a unital completely positive map between finite-dimensional C*-algebras is a homomorphism if and only if it is completely entropy-nonincreasing, where the relevant notion of entropy is a variant of von Neumann entropy. This…

Let F be a totally real number field of odd degree. We prove several purely local criteria for the asymptotic Fermat's Last Theorem to hold over F, and also for the non-existence of solutions to the unit equation over F. For example, if 2…

In this short note, using results of Bourgain, Fremlin, and Talagrand \cite{BFT}, we show that for a countable structure $M$, a saturated elementary extension $M^*$ of $M$ and a formula $\phi(x,y)$ the following are equivalent: (i)…

Let $M$ be a Riemann surface biholomorphic to an affine algebraic curve. We show that the inclusion of the space $\Re \mathrm{NC}_*(M,\mathbb{C}^n)$ of real parts of nonflat proper algebraic null immersions $M\to\mathbb{C}^n$, $n\ge 3$,…

This paper extends a version of the Stone-Weierstrass theorem to more general C*-algebras. Namely, assume that A is a unital, not necessarily separable, C*-algebra, and B is a C*-subalgebra containing the unit element. Then, I prove that:…

A triple of finite von Neumann algebras $B\subseteq N\subseteq M$ is said to have the relative weak asymptotic homomorphism property if there exists a net of unitary operators $\{u_{\lambda}\}_{\lambda\in \Lambda}$ in $B$ such that…

Let $A$ be a unital C$^*$-algebra with unity $1_A$. A pair of elements $0 \le a, b \le 1_A$ in $A$ is said to be \emph{absolutely compatible} if, $\vert a - b \vert + \vert 1_A - a - b \vert = 1_A.$ In this paper we provide a complete…

The classical asymptotic equipartition property is the statement that, in the limit of a large number of identical repetitions of a random experiment, the output sequence is virtually certain to come from the typical set, each member of…
