Let $X$ be a Hausdorff topological vector space, $X^*$ its topological dual and $Z$ a subset of $X^*$. In this paper, we establish some results concerning the $\sigma(X,Z)$-approximate fixed point property for bounded, closed convex subsets…
We introduce \emph{local Urysohn width}, a complexity measure for classification problems on metric spaces. Unlike VC dimension, fat-shattering dimension, and Rademacher complexity, which characterize the richness of hypothesis…
The central concept in the harmonic analysis of a compact group is the completeness of Peter-Weyl orthonormal basis as constructed from the matrix coefficients of a maximal set of irreducible unitary representations of the group, leading…
We consider Lie groups equipped with arbitrary distances. We only assume that the distance is left-invariant and induces the manifold topology. For brevity, we call such object metric Lie groups. Apart from Riemannian Lie groups,…
We obtain a complete group classification of the Lie point symmetries of nonlinear Poisson equations on generic (pseudo) Riemannian manifolds M. Using this result we study their Noether symmetries and establish the respective conservation…
We study two form of selective selective separability, $SS$ and $SS^+$, on countable spaces with an analytic topology. We show several Ramsey type properties which imply $SS$. For analytic spaces $X$, $SS^+$ is equivalent to have that the…
We re-examine the problem of gauging the Wess-Zumino term of a d-dimensional bosonic sigma-model. We phrase this problem in terms of the equivariant cohomology of the target space and this allows for the homological analysis of the…
We study a commutant-closed collection of von Neumann algebras acting on a common Hilbert space indexed by a poset with an order-reversing involution. We give simple geometric axioms for the poset which allow us to construct a braided…
We consider the Lie group PSL(2) (the group of orientation preserving isometries of the hyperbolic plane) and a left-invariant Riemannian metric on this group with two equal eigenvalues that correspond to space-like eigenvectors (with…
Being motivated by the notions of $\kappa$-Fr\'{e}chet--Urysohn spaces and $k'$-spaces introduced by Arhangel'skii, the notion of sequential spaces and the study of Ascoli spaces, we introduce three new classes of compact-type spaces. They…
We extend several notions and results from the classical Patterson-Sullivan theory to the setting of Anosov subgroups of higher rank semisimple Lie groups, working primarily with invariant Finsler metrics on associated symmetric spaces. In…
We survey some old and new results concerning the classification of complete metric spaces up to isometry, a theme initiated by Gromov, Vershik and others. All theorems concerning separable spaces appeared in various papers in the last…
We study properties of the classical fractional Sobolev spaces (or Bessel potential spaces) on non-Lipschitz subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We investigate the extent to which the properties of these spaces, and the relations between them, that…
We show that there is an hierarchy of intersection rigidity properties of sets in a closed symplectic manifold: some sets cannot be displaced by symplectomorphisms from more sets than the others. We also find new examples of rigidity of…
We show that compact Riemannian manifolds, regarded as metric spaces with their global geodesic distance, cannot contain a number of rigid structures such as (a) arbitrarily large regular simplices or (b) arbitrarily long sequences of…
Given a set of data points sampled from some underlying space, there are two important challenges in geometric and topological data analysis when dealing with sampled data: reconstruction -- how to assemble discrete samples into global…
Semi-Riemannian manifolds that satisfy (homogeneous) linear differential conditions of arbitrary order on the curvature are analyzed. They include, in particular, the spaces with (higher-order) recurrent curvature, (higher-order) symmetric…
Let E be a locally compact second countable Hausdorff space and F the pertaining family of all closed sets. We endow F respectively with the Fell-topology, the upper Fell topology or the upper Vietoris-topology and investigate weak…
We obtain generalizations of the uniform Sobolev inequalities of Kenig, Ruiz and the fourth author \cite{KRS} for Euclidean spaces and Dos Santos Ferreira, Kenig and Salo \cite{DKS} for compact Riemannian manifolds involving critically…
We develop persistent homology in the setting of filtrations of (Cech) closure spaces. Examples of filtrations of closure spaces include metric spaces, weighted graphs, weighted directed graphs, and filtrations of topological spaces. We use…
