Some aspects of analysis related to p-adic numbers, 2

Some aspects of analysis involving fields with absolute value functions are discussed, which includes the real or complex numbers with their standard absolute values, as well as ultrametric situations like the p-adic numbers.

Some aspects of analysis related to p-adic numbers

A field with an absolute value function is a basic type of metric space, which includes the real and complex numbers with their standard metrics, and ultrametrics on fields like the p-adic numbers. Here we try to give some perspectives of analysis in situations like these.

Groups and Cantor sets

It is well known that n x n upper-triangular real matrices with 1's on the diagonal form a nilpotent Lie group with an interesting family of non-isotropic dilations and corresponding geometry, as in [9]. Here we look at p-adic versions of this, and related matters.

Some remarks about solenoids, 2

A class of solenoids is considered, including some aspects in n (topological) dimensions, where one basically gets some fractal versions of tori.

Topics in Fourier analysis

An overview of some basic notions is given, especially with an eye towards somewhat "fractal" examples, such as infinite products of cyclic groups, p-adic numbers, and solenoids.

A sampler in analysis

A number of topics in analysis are discussed, with emphasis on basic principles. There is some overlap with "Elements of linear and real analysis" (arXiv:math/0108030), with numerous changes in content and presentation since then.

p-Adic Heisenberg Cantor sets, 2

In these informal notes, we continue to explore p-adic versions of Heisenberg groups and some of their variants, including the structure of the corresponding Cantor sets.

Metric spaces: The definition, and some examples

These informal notes were prepared in connection with a lecture at a high school mathematics tournament, and provide an overview of some examples of metric spaces and a few of their basic properties.

Notes on algebras and vector spaces of functions

These informal notes are concerned with spaces of functions in various situations, including continuous functions on topological spaces, holomorphic functions of one or more complex variables, and so on.
