Homotopically homogeneous spaces and manifolds

Homotopically Periodic Maps of Model Aspherical Manifolds

For a closed orientable surface S, any map f : S→S whose n-th power is homotopic to the identity, is homotopic to a homeomorphism g of S of order n. This famous theorem of Nielsen is known to fail in general for aspherical manifolds. In this paper, for model aspherical manifolds M associated to a finitely extendable set of data, we, however, present a weaker version of Nielsen’s result. We show...

Detecting Hilbert Manifolds among Homogeneous Metric Spaces

We detect Hilbert manifolds among homogeneous metric spaces and apply the obtained results to recognizing Hilbert manifolds among homogeneous spaces of the form G/H where G is a metrizable topological group and H is a closed balanced subgroup of G.

Frames and Homogeneous Spaces

Let be a locally compact non?abelian group and be a compact subgroup of also let be a ?invariant measure on the homogeneous space . In this article, we extend the linear operator as a bounded surjective linear operator for all ?spaces with . As an application of this extension, we show that each frame for determines a frame for and each frame for arises from a frame in via...

Convolution and Homogeneous Spaces

Flows on Homogeneous Spaces and Diophantine Approximation on Manifolds

We present a new approach to metric Diophantine approximation on manifolds based on the correspondence between approximation properties of numbers and orbit properties of certain flows on homogeneous spaces. This approach yields a new proof of a conjecture of Mahler, originally settled by V. G. Sprindžuk in 1964. We also prove several related hypotheses of Baker and Sprindžuk formulated in 1970...
