Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space and let $\mathcal{M}(X)$ denote the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $X$. Define $I \colon \mathcal{M}(X) \to \R$ by $I(mu) = \int_X \int_X d(x,y) d\mu(x) d\mu(y)$, and set $M(X) = \sup…
We extend the definition of $n$-dimensional difference equations to complex order $\alpha\in \mathbb{C} $. We investigate the stability of linear systems defined by an $n$-dimensional matrix $A$ and derive conditions for the stability of…
Let \lambda be a partition of a positive integer n. Let C be a symmetric rigid tensor category over a field k of characteristic 0 or char(k)>n, and let V be an object of C. In our main result (Theorem 4.3) we introduce a finite set of…
This work considers the problem of estimating the unscaled relative positions of a multi-robot team in a common reference frame from bearing-only measurements. Each robot has access to a relative bearing measurement taken from the local…
We say that a subset $S\subseteq F_N$ is \emph{spectrally rigid} if whenever $T_1, T_2\in cv_N$ are points of the (unprojectivized) Outer space such that $||g||_{T_1}=||g||_{T_2}$ for every $g\in S$ then $T_1=T_2$ in $\cvn$. It is…
Let $A = \{0 = a_0 < a_1 < \cdots < a_{\ell + 1} = b\}$ be a finite set of non-negative integers. We prove that the sumset $NA$ has a certain easily-described structure, provided that $N \geqslant b-\ell$, as recently conjectured by Shakan…
We prove that uniformly locally finite metric spaces with isomorphic Roe algebras must be coarsely equivalent. As an application, we also prove that the outer automorphism group of the Roe algebra of a metric space of bounded geometry is…
Consider the semialgebraic structure over the real field. More generally, let an ominimal structure be over a real closed field. We show that a definable metric space X with a definable metric d is embedded into a Euclidean space so that…
In a recent paper \cite{Acharya:2006ia} it was shown that in $M$ theory vacua without fluxes, all moduli are stabilized by the effective potential and a stable hierarchy is generated, consistent with standard gauge unification. This paper…
A linear space is a system of points and lines such that any two distinct points determine a unique line; a Steiner $k$-system (for $k \geq 2$) is a linear space such that each line has size exactly $k$. Clearly, as a two-sorted structure,…
Many deep, mysterious connections have been observed between collections of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) and combinatorial designs called $k$-nets (and in particular, between complete collections of MUBs and finite affine - or…
Motivated by weak null singularities in black hole interiors, we study 1+1 dimensional Lorentzian manifolds $(M,g)$ which admit a continuous spacetime extension across a null boundary $v=0$, where $v<0$ is a null coordinate. We study the…
This paper is a sequel to [He11] and [GH17]. In [He11] a notion of marking of isolated hypersurface singularities was defined, and a moduli space $M_\mu^{mar}$ for marked singularities in one $\mu$-homotopy class of isolated hypersurface…
For a compact set $E \subset \mathbb R^d$ and a connected graph $G$ on $k+1$ vertices, we define a $G$-framework to be a collection of $k+1$ points in $E$ such that the distance between a pair of points is specified if the corresponding…
We introduce the notion of strong embeddability for a metric space. This property lies between coarse embeddability and property A. A relative version of strong embeddability is developed in terms of a family of set maps on the metric…
This paper is a sequel to [He7]. There a notion of marking of isolated hypersurface singularities was defined, and a moduli space $M_\mu^{mar}$ for marked singularities in one $\mu$-homotopy class of isolated hypersurface singularities was…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring of dimension $d$, $M$ a commutative cancellative torsion-free monoid of rank $r$ and $P$ a finitely generated projective $R[M]$-module of rank $t$. $(1)$ Assume $M$ is $\Phi$-simplicial seminormal.…
For a generic embedding of a smooth closed surface $M$ into $\mathbb R^4$, the subset of $\mathbb R^4$ which is the affine $\lambda$-equidistant of $M$ appears as the discriminant set of a stable mapping $M \times M \to \mathbb R^4$, hence…
It was well known that geometric considerations enter in a decisive way in many questions of harmonic analysis. The main purpose of this paper is to provide the criterion of the boundedness for singular integrals on the Hardy spaces and as…
Let X be a path connected, compact metric space and let A be a unital separable simple nuclear Z-stable real rank zero C*-algebra. We classify all the unital *-embeddings (up to approximate unitary equivalence) of C(X) into A. Specifically,…
