On concentrated probabilities

Wojciech Bartoszek (1995)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Let G be a locally compact Polish group with an invariant metric. We provide sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of a compact set A ⊆ G and a sequence g n G such that μ n ( g n A ) 1 for all n. It is noticed that such measures μ form a meager subset of all probabilities on G in the weak measure topology. If for some k the convolution power μ k has nontrivial absolutely continuous component then a similar characterization is obtained for any locally compact, σ-compact, unimodular, Hausdorff topological...

On concentrated probabilities on non locally compact groups

Wojciech Bartoszek (1996)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let G be a Polish group with an invariant metric. We characterize those probability measures μ on G so that there exist a sequence g n G and a compact set A G with   μ * n ( g n A ) 1   for all n .

On continuity of measurable group representations and homomorphisms

Yulia Kuznetsova (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Let G be a locally compact group, and let U be its unitary representation on a Hilbert space H. Endow the space ℒ(H) of bounded linear operators on H with the weak operator topology. We prove that if U is a measurable map from G to ℒ(H) then it is continuous. This result was known before for separable H. We also prove that the following statement is consistent with ZFC: every measurable homomorphism from a locally compact group into any topological group is continuous.

On convolution operators with small support which are far from being convolution by a bounded measure

Edmond Granirer (1994)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let C V p ( F ) be the left convolution operators on L p ( G ) with support included in F and M p ( F ) denote those which are norm limits of convolution by bounded measures in M(F). Conditions on F are given which insure that C V p ( F ) , C V p ( F ) / M p ( F ) and C V p ( F ) / W are as big as they can be, namely have l as a quotient, where the ergodic space W contains, and at times is very big relative to M p ( F ) . Other subspaces of C V p ( F ) are considered. These improve results of Cowling and Fournier, Price and Edwards, Lust-Piquard, and others.

On countable dense and strong n-homogeneity

Jan van Mill (2011)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We prove that if a space X is countable dense homogeneous and no set of size n-1 separates it, then X is strongly n-homogeneous. Our main result is the construction of an example of a Polish space X that is strongly n-homogeneous for every n, but not countable dense homogeneous.

On dense subspaces satisfying stronger separation axioms

Ofelia Teresa Alas, Mihail G. Tkachenko, Vladimir Vladimirovich Tkachuk, Richard Gordon Wilson, Ivan V. Yashchenko (2001)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We prove that it is independent of ZFC whether every Hausdorff countable space of weight less than c has a dense regular subspace. Examples are given of countable Hausdorff spaces of weight c which do not have dense Urysohn subspaces. We also construct an example of a countable Urysohn space, which has no dense completely Hausdorff subspace. On the other hand, we establish that every Hausdorff space of π -weight less than 𝔭 has a dense completely Hausdorff (and hence Urysohn) subspace. We show that...

On derivations and crossed homomorphisms

Viktor Losert (2010)

Banach Center Publications

We discuss some results about derivations and crossed homomorphisms arising in the context of locally compact groups and their group algebras, in particular, L¹(G), the von Neumann algebra VN(G) and actions of G on related algebras. We answer a question of Dales, Ghahramani, Grønbæk, showing that L¹(G) is always permanently weakly amenable. Then we show that for some classes of groups (e.g. IN-groups) the homology of L¹(G) with coefficients in VN(G) is trivial. But this is no longer true, in general,...
