Abstract

In our companion paper (S.N. Chandler Wilde, D.P. Hewett, A. Moiola, Sobolev spaces on non-Lipschitz subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with application to boundary integral equations on fractal screens, 2016) we studied a number of different Sobolev spaces on a general (non-Lipschitz) open subset $Ω$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, defined as closed subspaces of the classical Bessel potential spaces $H^s(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for $s\in\mathbb{R}$. These spaces are mapped by the restriction operator to certain spaces of distributions on $Ω$. In this note we make some observations about the relation between these spaces of global and local distributions. In particular, we study conditions under which the restriction operator is or is not injective, surjective and isometric between given pairs of spaces. We also provide an explicit formula for minimal norm extension (an inverse of the restriction operator in appropriate spaces) in a special case.

Geometric conditions which imply $w^*$-normal structure

Let $X$ be a complex Banach space. In their seminal work, Lau and Mah (\cite{LM}) study a geometric property called Lim's condition which, for separable $X$, implies that for any non-empty $w^*$-compact convex set $K \subset X^*$, any nonexpansive mapping $T: K \rightarrow K$ has a fixed point. In this paper, we study a weaker form of Lim's condition, which we call weak-Lim's condition. We prove that if $\ell_1 \not\hookrightarrow X$, then weak-Lim's condition on $X^*$ implies the fixed point property for non-expansive maps on weakly compact subsets of $X$. In the case of a commutative $C^\ast$-algebra, we prove that weak-Lim's condition is equivalent to Lim's condition. We show that Lim's condition characterizes $C^*$-algebras which are a $c_0$-direct sum of finite-dimensional operator spaces, while weak-Lim's condition characterizes $C^*$-algebras which are a $c_0$-direct sum of the spaces of compact operators on Hilbert spaces. For a uniform algebra, we extend a result of Lau and Mah to show that weak-Lim's condition implies that the space is finite-dimensional. In the case of an $L^1$-predual space, we show that this condition implies $k$-smoothness of the norm in the sense considered in \cite{LR}.

Classification of bipartite observables I: stable and uniformly stable observables

This is the first of a series of three papers that bring model theory to quantum information. The dividing lines of Shelah's classification theory, which separate the tame first-order theories from the wild ones, become properties of bipartite observables: properties of the expectation values obtained when two independently prepared quantum systems are idealized one after the other. In this paper we focus on stability. An observable is stable when the order in which the two systems are idealized never changes its expectation value, and this is Shelah's stability. Its classical characterizations, in model theory and in analysis, acquire a physical meaning: idealized preparations are simulated by finite mixtures of actual ones, and adaptive probes can tell apart only polynomially many preparations.

Completely symmetric subspaces of noncommutative $L_p$-spaces

Let $2<p<\infty$. We prove that every infinite-dimensional closed subspace $F$ of a noncommutative $L_p$-space contains a subspace completely isomorphic to $\ell_p$, $C_p$, $R_p$, or $C_p\cap R_p$ and completely complemented in $F$. This answers the question of Junge and Xu on the existence of completely symmetric basic sequences.
