Gevrey Regularity and Compact Quantum Metric Spaces for $L^p$-Group Algebras

Abstract

We introduce the beta-Gevrey lp-rapid decay property (GRD){beta,p}, for 0 < beta <= 1 and 1 <= p < infinity, for countable discrete groups. This property is a subexponential analogue of classical rapid decay, in which polynomial control is replaced by logarithmic subexponential control of order o(R^beta). We establish basic results for (GRD){beta,p}. We then apply this framework to compact quantum metric structures on reduced Lp-group algebras. We introduce strongly dense-core beta-Gevrey regular lp-spectral triples and give two classes of examples. For countable discrete groups satisfying (GRD)_{beta,p}, we prove, using Rieffel's criterion, that the corresponding Gevrey seminorms induce metrics on the Banach-algebra state space which metrize the weak-* topology. This yields compact quantum metric space structures in settings beyond classical rapid decay, including groups of intermediate growth such as the first Grigorchuk group.

Conditional expectation operators on $C(X)$

At the COSAEF conference in 2021, several participants asked the question whether a conditional expectation operator in the sense of Kuo, Labaushagne and Watson could be constructed in vector lattices other than $\mathcal{L}_p$ spaces and in particular in $C(X)$. This work answers positively to this question and participates in an old discussion on integrals in $C(X)$ space.

Hypercontractivity for a family of quantum Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups

We show that a family of quantum Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups is hypercontractive. We also obtain the optimal order of the optimal time up to a constant. The main ingredient of our proof is Meixner polynomials. The goal of this paper is twofold: to provide more examples of hypercontractive quantum Markov semigourps on non-tracial von Neumann algebras, and to determine the optimal order of the optimal time for quantum Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups.

Fixed Point Rigidity of the Operator $Γ_pΠ_p^\ast$ and the LYZ Conjecture

We characterize the fixed points of the operator $Γ_pΠ_p^\ast$ for $n\geq 3$ and $1 0$ if and only if $K$ is an origin-centered ellipsoid, thereby settling the Lutwak--Yang--Zhang fixed-point conjecture in this range. Our proof is based on a variational analysis along linear reflection shadow systems. To address the nonlinear structure of the $L_p$ setting, we introduce the $L_p$-Projection Rolodex, which provides a dimensional reduction of the volume of the polar $L_p$-projection body to weighted lower-dimensional sectional functionals. A suitable change of variables, together with Ball's harmonic Prékopa--Leindler inequality, yields the convexity needed along the shadow system. Under the fixed-point condition, a first-variation identity then forces $\operatorname{vol}_n(Π_p^\ast K_t)$ to remain constant throughout the deformation. The rigidity statement follows from the equality characterization under Steiner symmetrization.
