On Skorokhod differentiable measures

On the Skorokhod topology

Let E be a completely regular topological space. Mitoma [9 ], extending the classical case E = R 1, has recently introduced the Skorokhod topology on the space D( [0, 1 ] : E). This topology is investigated in detail. We find families of continuous functions which generate the topology, examine the structure of the Borel and Baire a-algebras of D( [0, 1 ] : E) and prove tightness criteria for E...

Differentiable Actions on 2 « - Spheres

Introduction. It is shown in [4] that there is an infinite family of semifree Zm actions on odd dimensional homotopy spheres. There is also an infinite family of semifree S actions on odd dimensional homotopy spheres (see [2], [5]). On the other hand, it is announced in [2] that there are only finitely many inequivalent semifree S actions on even dimensional homotopy spheres. Hence it is intere...

Optimal Transport and Skorokhod Embedding

The Skorokhod embedding problem is to represent a given probability as the distribution of Brownian motion at a chosen stopping time. Over the last 50 years this has become one of the important classical problems in probability theory and a number of authors have constructed solutions with particular optimality properties. These constructions employ a variety of techniques ranging from excursio...
