The principal result in this note is a strengthened version of Kadison's transitivity theorem for unital JB$^*$-algebras, showing that for each minimal tripotent $e$ in the bidual, $\mathfrak{A}^{**}$, of a unital JB$^*$-algebra…
We establish spherical variants of the Gleason-Kahane-Zelazko and Kowalski-S{\l}odkowski theorems, and we apply them to prove that every weak-2-local isometry between two uniform algebras is a linear map. Among the consequences, we solve a…
We prove compactness of solutions of a fully nonlinear Yamabe problem satisfying a lower Ricci curvature bound, when the manifold is not conformally diffeomorphic to the standard sphere. This allows us to prove the existence of solutions…
We construct spectral triples on C*-algebraic extensions of unital C*-algebras by stable ideals satisfying a certain Toeplitz type property using given spectral triples on the quotient and ideal. Our construction behaves well with respect…
Given a category of objects, it is both useful and important to know if all the objects in the category may be realised as sub-objects -- via morphisms in the given category -- of a single object in that category enjoying some nice…
We study some generalized metric properties of weak topologies when restricted to the unit sphere of some equivalent norm on a Banach space, and their relationships with other geometrical properties of norms. In case of dual Banach space…
We solve three open problems concerning infinite-dimensional Lie groups posed in a recent survey article by K.-H. Neeb: (1) There exists a subgroup of some infinite-dimensional Lie group G which does not admit an initial Lie subgroup…
Llarull's scalar curvature rigidity theorem states that a 1-Lipschitz map $f: M\to S^n$ from a closed connected Riemannian spin manifold $M$ with scalar curvature $\mathrm{scal}\ge n(n-1)$ to the standard sphere $S^n$ is an isometry if the…
We study contractive projections, isometries, and real positive maps on algebras of operators on a Hilbert space. For example we find generalizations and variants of certain classical results on contractive projections on C*-algebras and…
We introduce and study continuous fields of JB-algebras (which are real non-associate analogues of C*-algebras). In particular, we show that for the universal enveloping C*-algebra C*sub-u(B) for the JB-algebra B defined by a continuous…
Let $f: X\to Y$ be a proper surjective morphism of varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if $f$ has geometrically connected fibers then the induced homomorphism of $F$-divided…
To any metric space it is possible to associate the cardinal invariant corresponding to the least number of rectifiable curves in the space whose union is not meagre. It is shown that this invariant can vary with the metric space…
The following strengthening of the Elton-Odell theorem on the existence of a $(1+\epsilon)-$separated sequences in the unit sphere $S_X$ of an infinite dimensional Banach space $X$ is proved: There exists an infinite subset $S\subseteq S_X$…
We solve the following three questions concerning surjective linear isometries between spaces of Lipschitz functions $\mathrm{Lip}(X,E)$ and $\mathrm{Lip}(Y,F)$, for strictly convex normed spaces $E$ and $F$ and metric spaces $X$ and $Y$:…
We calculate the Tate-Shafarevich group of an elliptic three-fold $f:X\rightarrow S$ when $X$ and $S$ are regular and $f$ is flat, relating it to the Brauer group of $X$ and $S$. We show that given certain hypotheses on $f$, the…
We define and study large and stably large subalgebras of simple unital C*-algebras. The basic example is the orbit breaking subalgebra of a crossed product by Z, as follows. Let X be an infinite compact metric space, let h be a minimal…
Generalizing the work of Sen, we analyze special points in the moduli space of the compactification of the F-theory on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds where the coupling remains constant. These contain points where they can be…
Let $1\le p<\infty$. A Banach lattice $E$ is said to be disjointly homogeneous (resp. $p$-disjointly homogeneous) if two arbitrary normalized disjoint sequences from $E$ contain equivalent in $E$ subsequences (resp. every normalized…
We endow the Banach-Lie structure group $Str(V)$ of an infinite dimensional JB-algebra $V$ with a left-invariant connection and Finsler metric, and we compute all the quantities of its connection. We show how this connection reduces to…
We show that the following algorithmic problem is decidable: given a $2$-dimensional simplicial complex, can it be embedded (topologically, or equivalently, piecewise linearly) in $\mathbf{R}^3$? By a known reduction, it suffices to decide…
