We prove that Schlumprecht space $S$ is isomorphic to $(\sum_{k=1}^\infty \oplus \ell_infty ^{n_k})_S $ for any sequence of integers $(n_k)$. We also show that every complemented subspace of $S$ which has some subsymmetric basis, is…

We study the following geometry problem: given a $2^n-1$ dimensional vector $\pi=\{\pi_S\}_{S\subseteq [n], S\ne \emptyset}$, is there an object $T\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\log(\mathsf{vol}(T_S))= \pi_S$, for all $S\subseteq [n]$,…

It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $K \in \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in the interior of $K$ which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $K$. The conjecture is known to be true…

A Banach space X is said to have the Tsirelson property if it does not contain subspaces that are isomorphic to l_{p}, p in [1,infty) or c_{0}. The article contains a quite simple method to producing Banach spaces with the Tsirelson…

Let $Y$ be a Gromov-Hausdorff limit of complete Riemannian n-manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below. A point in $Y$ is called $k$-regular, if its tangent is unique and is isometric to an $k$-dimensional Euclidean space. By…

Relatively recently it was proved that if $\Gamma$ is an arbitrary set, then any equivalent norm on $c_0(\Gamma)$ can be approximated uniformly on bounded sets by polyhedral norms and $C^\infty$ smooth norms, with arbitrary precision. We…

The classical Beurling-Helson-Lowdenslager theorem characterizes the shift-invariant subspaces of the Hardy space $H^{2}$ and of the Lebesgue space $L^{2}$. In this paper, which is self-contained, we define a very general class of norms…

We prove a generalization of the hyperplane inequality for intersection bodies, where volume is replaced by an arbitrary measure $\mu$ with even continuous density and sections are of arbitrary dimension $n-k,\ 1\le k <n.$ If $K$ is a…

Following a result of D.~Bylik and M.T.~Lacey from 2008 it is known that there exists an absolute constant $\eta>0$ such that the (unnormalized) $L^{\infty}$-norm of the three-dimensional discrepancy function, i.e, the (unnormalized) star…

Given a triangulation of a closed, oriented, irreducible, atoroidal 3-manifold every oriented, incompressible surface may be isotoped into normal position relative to the triangulation. Such a normal oriented surface is then encoded by…

A criterion on the similarity of a (bounded, linear) operator $T$ on a (complex, separable) Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ in terms of shift-type invariant subspaces of $T$ to a contraction of class $C_{\cdot 0}$ with finite unequal defects is…

We prove that the tangent space to the $(n+1)$-th Milnor $K$-group of a ring $R$ is isomorphic to group of $n$-th absolute K\"ahler differentials of $R$ when the ring $R$ contains $\frac{1}{2}$ and has sufficiently many invertible elements.…

We prove that the $\frac12$-snowflake of a finite-dimensional normed space $(X,\|\cdot\|_X)$ embeds into a Hilbert space with quadratic average distortion $$O\Big(\sqrt{\log \mathrm{dim}(X)}\Big).$$ We deduce from this (optimal) statement…

A hypothesis of general relativity is that spacetime torsion vanishes identically. This assumption has no empirical support; in fact, a nonvanishing torsion is compatible with all the experimental tests of general relativity. The first part…

Let ${X_1,...,X_n}$ be i.i.d. random observations. Let $\mathbb{S}=\mathbb{L}+\mathbb{T}$ be a $U$-statistic of order $k\ge2$ where $\mathbb{L}$ is a linear statistic having asymptotic normal distribution, and $\mathbb{T}$ is a…

We establish a lower bound on the total mass of the time slices of (n + 1)-dimensional asymptotically flat standard static spacetimes under the timelike convergence condition. The inequality can be viewed equivalently as a Minkowski-type…

This paper is a continuation of the recent paper of the author, where a certain reproducing kernel Hilbert space $X_{\mathcal{S}}$ was constructed. The norm in $X_{\mathcal{S}}$ is related to a certain generalized isoperimetric inequality…

Let $\eps >0$. We prove that there exists an operator $T_\eps:\ell_2\to\ell_2$, such that for any polynomial $P$ we have $\|{P(T)}\| \leq(1+\eps)\|{P}\|_\infty$, but which is not similar to a contraction, {\it i.e.} there does not exist an…

Constructive properties of uniform convexity, strict convexity, near convexity, and metric convexity in real normed linear spaces are considered. Examples show that certain classical theorems, such as the existence of points of osculation,…

We prove that if T is an operator on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space whose spectrum and essential spectrum are both connected and whose Fredholm index is only 0 or 1, then the only nontrivial norm-stable invariant subspaces of T are…
