Finite subset spaces of a metric space $X$ form a nested sequence under natural isometric embeddings $X=X(1)\subset X(2)\subset \cdots \,$. We prove that this sequence admits Lipschitz retractions $X(n)\rightarrow X(n-1)$ when $X$ is a Hilbert space.

AbstractLet X(n), for n ∊ ℕ, be the set of all subsets of a metric space (X, d) of cardinality at most n. The set X(n) equipped with the Hausdorff metric is called a finite subset space. In this paper we are concerned with the existence of Lipschitz retractions r: X(n)→ X(n − 1) for n ≥ 2. It is known that such retractions do not exist if X is the one-dimensional sphere. On the other hand, Kovalev has recently established their existence if X is a Hilbert space, and he also posed a question as to whether or not such Lipschitz retractions exist when X is a Hadamard space. In this paper we answer the question in the positive.

We prove that a metric space does not coarsely embed into a Hilbert space if and only if it satisfies a sequence of Poincaré inequalities, which can be formulated in terms of (generalized) expanders. We also give quantitative statements, relative to the compression. In the equivariant context, our result says that a group does not have the Haagerup Property if and only if it has relative property T with respect to a family of probabilities whose supports go to infinity. We give versions of this result both in terms of unitary representations, and in terms of affine isometric actions on Hilbert spaces.

AbstractA subset Y of a metric space (X, p) is called rigid if all the distances p(y1, y2) between points y1, y2 ∈ Y in Y are mutually different. The main purpose of this paper is to prove the existence of dense rigid subsets of cardinality c in Euclidean spaces En and in the separable Hilbert space l2. Some applications to abstract point set geometries are given and the connection with the theory of dimension is discussed.

Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for a sequence $\{x_j:~j\in \mathbb J\}$ in a Hilbert space to be, up to the elimination of a finite subset of $\mathbb J$, the linear homeomorphic image of an orthogonal basis of some Hilbert space $K$. This extends a similar result for orthonormal bases due to Holub [J.R. Holub. Pre-frame operators, Besselian frames, and near-Riesz bases in Hilbert spaces. \textit{Proc. Amer. Math. Soc.}, 122(3):779--785, 1994]. The proofs given here are based on simple linear algebra techniques.

AbstractLet $$\mathcal H$$ H be a Hilbert space of distributions on $$\mathbf{R}^{d}$$ R d which contains at least one non-zero element of the Feichtinger algebra $$S_0$$ S 0 and is continuously embedded in $$\mathscr {D}'$$ D ′ . If $$\mathcal H$$ H is translation and modulation invariant, also in the sense of its norm, then we prove that $$\mathcal H= L^2$$ H = L 2 , with the same norm apart from a multiplicative constant.

Abstract Einstein’s theory of general relativity is based on the premise that the physical laws take the same form in all coordinate systems. However, it still presumes a preferred decomposition of the total kinematic Hilbert space into local kinematic Hilbert spaces. In this paper, we consider a theory of quantum gravity that does not come with a preferred partitioning of the kinematic Hilbert space. It is pointed out that, in such a theory, dimension, signature, topology and geometry of spacetime depend on how a collection of local clocks is chosen within the kinematic Hilbert space.

In this paper we adopt the notion of orthogonality in Banach spaces introduced by the author in [6]. There, the author showed that in any two-dimensional subspace F of E, every nonzero element admits at most one orthogonal direction. The problem of existence of such orthogonal direction was not addressed before. Our main purpose in this paper is the investigation of this problem in the case where E is a real Banach space. As a result we obtain a characterisation of Hilbert spaces stating that, if in every two-dimensional subspace F of E every nonzero element admits an orthogonal direction, then E is isometric to a Hilbert space. We conclude by presenting some open problems.

AbstractOur main result is that a finitely generated nilpotent group has no isometric action on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space with dense orbits. In contrast, we construct such an action with a finitely generated metabelian group.

In this paper we introduce the invex programming problem in Hilbert space. The requisite theory has been established to characterize the solution of such class of problems.
