We give a new proof for an equality of certain max-min and min-max approximation problems involving normal matrices. The previously published proofs of this equality apply tools from matrix theory, (analytic) optimization theory and…
We prove that every isometry between the unit spheres of 2-dimensional Banach spaces extends to a linear isometry of the Banach spaces. This resolves the famous Tingley's problem in the class of 2-dimensional Banach spaces.
This paper deals with the Landesman-Lazer type problem of elliptic equations associated with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. By using some dynamical arguments we derive some new results on bifurcation from infinity and…
In the symplectic realm, a distance between open starshaped domains in Liouville manifolds was recently defined. This is the symplectic Banach-Mazur distance. It was proposed by Ostrover and Polterovich and developed by Ostrover,…
We prove that the Teichm\"uller space of surfaces with given boundary lengths equipped with the arc metric (resp. the Teichm\"uller metric) is almost isometric to the Teichm\"uller space of punctured surfaces equipped with the Thurston…
We determine when a quasi-isometry between discrete spaces is at bounded distance from a bilipschitz map. From this we prove a geometric version of the Von Neumann conjecture on amenability. We also get some examples in geometric groups…
We extend the methods used by V. Ferenczi and Ch. Rosendal to obtain the `third dichotomy' in the program of classification of Banach spaces up to subspaces, in order to prove that a Banach space E with an admissible system of blocks with…
The main object of the paper is to study the distance between Banach spaces introduced by Kadets. For Banach spaces $X$ and $Y$, the Kadets distance is defined to be the infimum of the Hausdorff distance $d(B_X,B_Y)$ between the respective…
We examine a Gelfand type system and show the extremal solutions are bounded provided we are close enough to the scalar case.
We study the structure of the space of coarse Lipschitz maps between Banach spaces. In particular we introduce the notion of norm attaining coarse Lipschitz maps. We extend to the case of norm attaining coarse Lipschitz equivalences, a…
We review and analyse techniques from the literature for extending a normed algebra, A to a normed algebra, B, so that B has interesting or desirable properties which A may lack. For example, B might include roots of monic polynomials over…
Most, if not all, unconditional results towards the abc-conjecture rely ultimately on classical Baker's method. In this article, we turn our attention to its elliptic analogue. Using the elliptic Baker's method, we have recently obtained a…
Our main result states that, given a finite-dimensional vector space $E$, the pseudometric defined in the set of continuous quasinorms $\mathcal{Q}_0=\{\|\cdot\|:E\to\mathbb{R}\}$ as $$d(\|\cdot\|_X,\|\cdot\|_Y)=\min\{\mu:\|\cdot\|_X…
We obtain a substantially improved lower bound for the minimum overlap problem asked by Erd\H{o}s. Our approach uses elementary Fourier analysis to translate the problem to a convex optimization program.
In the classical best approximation pair (BAP) problem, one is given two nonempty, closed, convex and disjoint subsets in a finite- or an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, and the goal is to find a pair of points, each from each subset,…
For Banach spaces $X,Y,$ we consider a distance problem in the space of bounded linear operators $\mathcal{L}(X,Y).$ Motivated by a recent paper \cite{RAO21}, we obtain sufficient conditions so that for a compact operator…
We describe a quantitative construction of almost-normal diffeomorphisms between embedded orientable manifolds with boundary to be used in the study of geometric variational problems with stratified singular sets. We then apply this…
We study several versions of the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) for solving the convex problem of finding the distance between two ellipsoids and the nonconvex problem of finding the distance between the boundaries of…
In this article we prove an existence theorem for coincidence points of mappings in Banach spaces. This theorem generalizes the Kantorovich fixed point theorem.
We prove that an onto isometry between unit spheres of finite-dimensional polyhedral Banach spaces extends to a linear isometry of the corresponding spaces.
