Ghostly ideals are among the most mysterious objects in coarse index theory. In this paper, we show that if a metric space $X$ with bounded geometry admits a coarse embedding into an $\ell^p$-space ($1 \le p < \infty$), then the canonical…

A class of general relativistic solutions in isotropic spherical polar coordinates are discussed which describe compact stars in hydrostatic equilibrium. The stellar models obtained here are characterized by four parameters, namely,…

Suppose $\mathcal K$ is $N$-dimensional local field of characteristic $p$, $\mathcal G =\mathop{Gal}(\mathcal K_{sep}/\mathcal K)$, $\mathcal G_{<p}$ is the maximal quotient of $\mathcal G$ of period $p$ and nilpotent class $<p$ and…

We show that if $p>1$ every subspace of $\ell_p(\Gamma)$ is an $\ell_p$-sum of separable subspaces of $\ell_p$, and we provide examples of subspaces of $\ell_p(\Gamma)$ for $0<p\leq 1$ that are not even isomorphic to any $\ell_p$-sum of…

Let $K$ be a finite extension of ${\mathbb Q}_p$ and let $X$ be Drinfel'd's symmetric space of dimension $d$ over $K$. Let $\Gamma\subset {\rm SL}_{d+1}(K)$ be a cocompact discrete (torsionfree) subgroup and let…

We show that a discrete group $\Gamma$ which admits a non-elementary isometric action on a Hadamard manifold of bounded negative curvature admits an isometric action on an $L^p$-space $V$ for some $p>1$ with $H^1(\Gamma,V)\not=0$.

This paper continues our investigation into the question of when a homotopy $\omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ of 2-cocycles on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ gives rise to an isomorphism of the $K$-theory groups of…

We study Poincar\'e type $L^p$ inequality on a compact semialgebraic subset of $\R^n$ for $p>>1$. First we derive a local inequality by using a Lipschitz deformation retraction with estimates on its derivatives. Then, we extend the local…

The cone-volume measure of a polytope with centroid at the origin is proved to satisfy the subspace concentration condition. As a consequence a conjectured (a dozen years ago) fundamental sharp affine isoperimetric inequality for the…

Let $K$ be a convex body in $\bbR^n$ and $\d>0$. The homothety conjecture asks: Does $K_{\d}=c K$ imply that $K$ is an ellipsoid? Here $K_{\d}$ is the (convex) floating body and $c$ is a constant depending on $\d$ only. In this paper we…

We use Andrew Baker's analysis of the cofiber of the endomorphism of the $p$-adic elliptic spectrum ($p>3$) defined by multiplication by the `Hasse invariant' $E_{p-1}$ to present its completion away from the locus of ordinary elliptic…

Let $(M,g)$ be an incomplete Riemannian manifold of finite volume and let $2\leq p<\infty$. In the first part of this paper we prove that under certain assumptions the inclusion of the space of $L^p$-differential forms into that of…

The notion of a $\Gamma $-symmetric space is a generalization of the classical notion of a symmetric space, where a general finite abelian group $\Gamma $ replaces the group $Z_2$. The case $\Gamma =\Z_k$ has also been studied, from the…

In this work, the $L_p$ version (for $p> 1$) of the dimensional Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the standard Gaussian measure $\gamma_n(\cdot)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is shown. More precisely, we prove that for any $0$-symmetric convex sets with…

In this paper we connect Calder\'on and Zygmund's notion of $L^p$\- -differentiability with some recent characterizations of Sobolev spaces via the asymptotics of non-local functionals due to Bourgain, Brezis, and Mironescu. We show how the…

Let $\gamma$ be an algebraic number of degree $2$ and not a root of unity. In this note we show that there exists a prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ of $\mathbb{Q}(\gamma)$ satisfying $\nu_\mathfrak{p}(\gamma^n-1)\ge 1$, such that the rational…

Let $p$ be an irregular prime and $K=\Q(\zeta)$ the $p$-cyclotomic field. Let $\sigma$ be a $\Q$-isomorphism of $K$ generating $Gal(K/\Q)$. Let $S/K$ be a cyclic unramified extension of degree $p$, defined by $S= K(A^{1/p})$ where $A\in…

We study spaces $X$ for which the space $Hom_p(X)$ of automorphisms with the topology of point-wise convergence is a topological group. We identify large classes of spaces $X$ for which $Hom_p(X)$ is or is not a topological group.

The $\kappa$-topologies on the spaces $\mathscr{D}_{L^p}$, $L^p$ and $\mathscr{M}^1$ are defined by a neighbourhood basis consisting of polars of absolutely convex and compact subsets of their (pre-)dual spaces. In many cases it is more…

The subgroup K=GL_p x GL_q of GL_{p+q} acts on the (complex) flag variety GL_{p+q}/B with finitely many orbits. We introduce a family of polynomials that specializes to representatives for cohomology classes of the orbit closures in the…
