Two vectors $x, y$ in a normed vector space are parallel if there is a scalar $\mu$ with $|\mu| = 1$ such that $\|x+\mu y\| = \|x\| + \|y\|$; they form a triangle equality attaining (TEA) pair if $\|x+y\| = \|x\| + \|y\|$. In this paper, we…

We show a continuity theorem for Stinespring's dilation: two completely positive maps between arbitrary C*-algebras are close in cb-norm iff we can find corresponding dilations that are close in operator norm. The proof establishes the…

A function $f: \mathbb{Z} \to \mathbb{Q}^n$ is a $c$-quasihomomorphism if the Hamming distance between $f(x+y)$ and $f(x)+f(y)$ is at most $c$ for all $x,y \in \mathbb{Z}$. We show that any $c$-quasihomomorphism has distance at most some…

Isometries of metric spaces $(X,d)$ preserve all level sets of $d$. We formulate and prove cases of a conjecture asserting if $X$ is a complete Riemannian manifold, then a function $f:X \rightarrow X$ preserving at least one level set…

Let {\Lambda}\subsetR^{n}\timesR^{m} and k be a positive integer. Let f:R^{n}\rightarrowR^{m} be a locally bounded map such that for each ({\xi},{\eta})\in{\Lambda}, the derivatives D_{{\xi}}^{j}f(x):=|((d^{j})/(dt^{j}))f(x+t{\xi})|_{t=0},…

We introduce the notion of a good map between topological spaces: a continuous map $f:X \to Y$ is *good* if for every non-empty irreducible locally closed subset $U \subseteq X$, there exists a non-empty open subset $W \subseteq Y$ such…

We describe the structure of the bijective transformations on the set of density operators which preserve the Bregman $f$-divergence for an arbitrary differentiable strictly convex function $f.$ Furthermore, we determine the preservers of…

For $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}$, positive integer $n$, and $d > 0$, let $G(S^n, d)$ be the graph whose vertex set is $S^n$ where any two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are Euclidean distance $d$ apart. The primary question we will…

We prove that if $E \subset {\Bbb F}_q^d$, $d \ge 2$, $F \subset \operatorname{Graff}(d-1,d)$, the set of affine $d-1$-dimensional planes in ${\Bbb F}_q^d$, then $|\Delta(E,F)| \ge \frac{q}{2}$ if $|E||F|>q^{d+1}$, where $\Delta(E,F)$ the…

Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field consisting of $q$ elements and let $\Gamma_{k}(V)$ be the Grassmann graph formed by $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$, $1<k<n-1$. Denote by $\Gamma(n,k)_{q}$ the restriction of…

For any positive integers m and n, the word map (x,y) -> x^m y^n is almost measure preserving on large finite simple groups G.

We introduce and study a new type of mappings in metric spaces termed $n$-point Kannan-type mappings. A fixed-point theorem is proved for these mappings. In general case such mappings are discontinuous in the domain but necessarily…

Recently a generalization of shifts of finite type to the infinite alphabet case was proposed, in connection with the theory of ultragraph C*-algebras. In this work we characterize the class of continuous shift commuting maps between these…

Let $C$ be a closed cone with nonempty interior $C^\circ$ in a Banach space. Let $f:C^\circ \rightarrow C^\circ$ be an order-preserving subhomogeneous function with a fixed point in $C^\circ$. We introduce a condition which guarantees that…

We introduce a new type of mappings in metric spaces which are three-point analogue of the well-known Kannan type mappings and call them generalized Kannan type mappings. It is shown that in general case such mappings are discontinuous but…

Let $L$ be a countable CW-complex and $F\colon X\to Y$ be upper semicontinuous $UV^{[L]}$-valued mapping of a paracompact space $X$ to a complete metric space $Y$. We prove that if $X$ is a C-space of extension dimension $\ed X \le [L]$,…

Density of stable maps is the common thread of this paper. We review Whitney's contribution to singularities of differentiable mappings and Thom-Mather theories on $C^{\infty}$ and $C^{0}$-stability. Infinitesimal and algebraic methods are…

In this article, we prove the existence of common fixed points for a pair of maps on a $q$-spherically complete $T_0$-ultra-quasi-metric space. The present article is a generalization, in the assymmetric setting of the paper of Rao et…

In \cite{FKW} Katznelson and Weiss establish that all sufficiently large distances can always be attained between pairs of points from any given measurable subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ of positive upper (Banach) density. A second proof of this…

We study new classes of linear preservers between C$^*$-algebras and JB$^*$-triples. Let $E$ and $F$ be JB$^*$-triples with $\partial_{e} (E_1)$. We prove that every linear map $T:E\to F$ strongly preserving Brown-Pedersen quasi-invertible…
