In this paper, we establish a class of Stein-Weiss type inequality with partial variable weight functions on the upper half space using a weighted Hardy type inequality. Overcoming the impact of weighted functions, the existence of extremal…

In this paper, we formulate and prove linear analogues of results concerning matchings in groups. A matching in a group G is a bijection f between two finite subsets A,B of G with the property, motivated by old questions on symmetric…

We introduce a class of analytic sheaves in a Banach space X, that we call cohesive sheaves. Cohesion is meant to generalize the notion of coherence from finite dimensional analysis. Accordingly, we prove the analog of Cartan's Theorems A…

We show that under certain mild conditions, a metric simplicial complex which satisfies the Ptolemy inequality is a CAT(0) space. Ptolemy's inequality is closely related to inversions of metric spaces. For a large class of metric simplicial…

The Lusternik-Schnirelmann category $cat(X)$ is a homotopy invariant which is a numerical bound on the number of critical points of a smooth function on a manifold. Another similar invariant is the topological complexity $TC(X)$ (a la…

We consider functional linear regression models where functional outcomes are associated with scalar predictors by coefficient functions with shape constraints, such as monotonicity and convexity, that apply to sub-domains of interest. To…

We prove that the area of cross-sections of light-cones, in space-times satisfying suitable energy conditions, is smaller than or equal to that of the corresponding cross-sections in Minkowski, or de Sitter, or anti-de Sitter space-time.…

It is well-known that $AB$ and $BA$ are similar when $A$ and $B$ are complex square Hermitian matrices. In this note we answer a question of F. Zhang by demonstrating that similarity can fail if $A$ is Hermitian and $B$ is normal. Perhaps…

In this note we show that a semisimplicial set with the weak Kan condition admits a simplicial structure, provided any object allows an idempotent self-equivalence. Moreover, any two choices of simplicial structures give rise to equivalent…

We show that for n > 4 a length space (X,d) satisfies a rough n-point condition if and only it it is rough CAT(0).

We show that for each countable simplicial complex P the following conditions are equivalent: (1) $P \in AE(X)$ iff $P \in AE(\beta X)$ for any space X; (2) There exists a P-invertible map of a metrizable compactum X with $P \in AE(X)$ onto…

In a recent paper A. Cianchi, N. Fusco, F. Maggi, and A. Pratelli have shown that, in the Gauss space, a set of given measure and almost minimal Gauss boundary measure is necessarily close to be a half-space. Using only geometric tools, we…

We prove an analogous Hanner's Inequality of $L^p$ spaces for positive semidefinite matrices. Let $||X||_p=\text{Tr}[(X^\ast X)^{p/2}]^{1/p}$ denote the $p$-Schatten norm of a matrix $X\in M_{n\times n}(\mathbb{C})$. We show that the…

Let $A$ be a, not necessarily closed, linear relation in a Hilbert space $\sH$ with a multivalued part $\mul A$. An operator $B$ in $\sH$ with $\ran B\perp\mul A^{**}$ is said to be an operator part of $A$ when $A=B \hplus (\{0\}\times \mul…

This is a survey which discusses the isomorphism problem for both C* and smooth crossed products by minimal diffeomorphisms. For C* crossed products, examples demonstrate the failure of the obvious analog of the Giordano-Putnam-Skau Theorem…

We consider rigidity properties of compact symmetric spaces $X$ with metric $g_0$ of rank one. Suppose $g$ is another Riemannian metric on $X$ with sectional curvature $\kappa$ bounded by $0 \leq \kappa \leq 1$. If $g$ equals $g_0$ outside…

In this study, a pairwise comparison matrix is generalized to the case when coefficients create Lie group $G$, non necessarily abelian. A necessary and sufficient criterion for pairwise comparisons matrices to be consistent is provided.…

The question, under what geometric assumptions on a space X an n-quasiflat in X implies the existence of an n-flat therein, has been investigated for a long time. It was settled in the affirmative for Busemann spaces by Kleiner, and for…

Generalizing Culler and Vogtmann's Outer Space for the free group, Guirardel and Levitt construct an Outer Space for a free product of groups. We completely characterize when this space (or really its simplicial spine) supports an…

We prove that certain subcritical Paneitz-Branson type equations on a closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ have at least $\mathrm{Cat}(M)$ positIve solutions, where $\mathrm{Cat}(M)$ is the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category of $M$. This implies…
