Connes' Analogue of the Thom Isomorphism for the Kasparov Groups.
Given a real separable Hilbert space H, we denote with S = {E(n) | n belongs to N} a sequence of closed linear subspaces of H.In previous papers, the strong, weak, a--> and b--> convergences are defined and characterized. Now, given a sequence S with strong, weak, a--> or b--> limit, and a linear operator of H, A, the sequence AS is studied.
Diversities are like metric spaces, except that every finite subset, instead of just every pair of points, is assigned a value. Just as there is a theory of minimal distortion embeddings of fiite metric spaces into L1, there is a similar, yet undeveloped, theory for embedding finite diversities into the diversity analogue of L1 spaces. In the metric case, it iswell known that an n-point metric space can be embedded into L1 withO(log n) distortion. For diversities, the optimal distortion is unknown....
We prove that for each dense non-compact linear operator S: X → Y between Banach spaces there is a linear operator T: Y → c₀ such that the operator TS: X → c₀ is not compact. This generalizes the Josefson-Nissenzweig Theorem.
In this work, we construct, by means of the function space interpolation theory, a natural norm for a generic linear coercive and non-symmetric operator. We look for a norm which is the counterpart of the energy norm for symmetric operators. The natural norm allows for continuity and inf-sup conditions independent of the operator. Particularly we consider the convection-diffusion-reaction operator, for which we obtain continuity and inf-sup conditions that are uniform with respect to the operator...
