A Uniqueness Theorem and Its Application to Field-Theoretical Models with a Fundamental Length

Abstract

It is shown that if a distribution V of exponential growth has support in a proper convex cone and its Fourier transform is carried by a closed cone different from whole space, then V=0. The application of this result to a {\em quasi-local} quantum field theory (where the fields are localizable only in regions greater than a certain scale of nonlocality) is contemplated. In particular, we show that a number of physically important predictions of {\em local} quantum field theory also hold in a quantum field theory with a fundamental length, as indicated from string theory.

On hypercyclic and (common) upper frequently hypercyclic subspaces

Let $B$ be a unilateral weighted backward shift on $\ell_p$, $1 \leq p < \infty$, that admits a $\mathscr{U}$-frequently hypercyclic subspace. We prove that $B$ admits such a subspace free of frequently hypercyclic vectors. The proof technique we develop also allows us to prove that $B$ admits a hypercyclic subspace free of $\mathscr{U}$-frequently hypercyclic vectors, and to solve a question posed by Bès and Menet in 2015 on the existence of common $\mathscr{U}$-frequently hypercyclic subspaces.

Derivatives of Tensor Products and Applications to Spaces $C(K^n,X)$

In this paper, we develop an abstract theory of derivatives for Banach spaces based on objects that we call \emph{bidual assignments}. This framework encompasses both the Semadeni derivative and the recently introduced Semadeni--Pełczyński derivative. More generally, suitable ideals of subsets of dual spaces give rise to a broad family of derivatives within this setting. We establish direct-sum and tensor-product formulas for these derivatives, showing that they behave naturally with respect to direct sums and injective tensor products. We then obtain explicit descriptions of derivatives associated with compact trees and study the corresponding questions for finite products of compact lines. As the main application, we establish classification results for spaces of the form $C(K^n,X)$. In particular, for uncountable ordinals $α$ and $β$, an integer $n\geq1$, and Banach spaces $X$ satisfying suitable rigidity assumptions, we prove that \[ C([0,α]^n,X)\sim C([0,β]^n,X) \quad\text{if and only if}\quad C([0,α])\sim C([0,β]). \] This extends Kislyakov's classification of the spaces $C([0,α])$ and its vector-valued extension due to Galego to finite powers of ordinal intervals.

Nearly optimal Kolmogorov widths under holomorphic mappings

This paper establishes essentially optimal asymptotic bounds for Kolmogorov widths under holomorphic mappings between complex Banach spaces. Given a compact parameter set whose Kolmogorov widths decay algebraically with rate s, we prove that the widths of its image under a holomorphic mapping decay algebraically with every rate t<s, thereby answering an open question raised by Cohen and DeVore. As an application, we obtain a sharp characterization of the approximability of solution manifolds associated with inf-sup stable parametrized PDEs. We also construct an explicit example showing that the arbitrarily small loss in the algebraic decay exponent is unavoidable. Finally, we provide similar characterization of asymptotic bounds for Kolmogorov widths in the exponentially decaying regime. Our analysis involves multilinear Taylor expansion in Banach spaces and a novel block dyadic expansion-truncation technique.
