We report on a question, posed by L. Ornea and M. Verbitsky in [32], about examples of compact locally conformal symplectic manifolds without locally conformal Kähler metrics. We construct such an example on a compact 4-dimensional nilmanifold, not the product of a compact 3-manifold and a circle.

Hofmann and Morris [6] proved that a locally compact connected group G has a finite subset generating a dense subgroup if and only if the weight w(G) of G does not exceed c , the cardinality of the continuum. The minimum cardinality of such a topological generating set is an invariant of the group, is denoted by σ(G), and is called the topological rank of G . For compact abelian groups of weigh...

in this paper‎, ‎we introduce the notion of $(m,n)$-‎algebr‎aically compact modules as an analogue of algebraically‎ ‎compact modules and then we show that $(m,n)$-algebraically‎ ‎compactness‎ ‎and $(m,n)$-pure injectivity for modules coincide‎. ‎moreover‎, ‎further characterizations of a‎ ‎$(m,n)$-pure injective module over a commutative ring are given‎.

For each S ∈ L(E) (with E a Banach space) the operator R(S) ∈ L(E/E) is defined by R(S)(x + E) = Sx + E (x ∈ E). We study mapping properties of the correspondence S → R(S), which provides a representation R of the weak Calkin algebra L(E)/W (E) (here W (E) denotes the weakly compact operators on E). Our results display strongly varying behaviour of R. For instance, there are no non–zero compact...

We are concerned with conditions under which a locally compact group G has a maximal compact normal subgroup K and whether or not G/K is a Lie group. If G has small compact normal subgroups K such that G/K is a Lie group, then G is pro-Lie. If in G there is a collection of closed normal subgroups {Ha} such that f~| Ha = e and G/Ha is a Lie group for each a, then G is a residual Lie group. We de...

the polarimetric entropy and the alpha angle are two important parameters for analyzing polarimetric synthetic aperture radar data. they demonstrate the degree of randomness in the polarization of the received signal and scattering mechanism of scatterers respectively. recently, there has been an increasing interest in compact polarimetry due to its advantages in comparison with full polarimetr...

it is called nontrivial if {0} 6= J 6= X. This notion was introduced by Alfsen and Effros [1] and has proved useful in Banach space geometry, approximation theory and harmonic analysis; see [12] for a detailed account. A number of authors have studied the M -ideal structure in L(X), the space of bounded linear operators on a Banach space X, with special emphasis on the question whether K(X), th...

Let X be a hypergroup. In this paper, we define a locally convex topology β on L(X) such that (L(X), β) with the strong topology can be identified with a Banach subspace of L(X). We prove that if X has a Haar measure, then the dual to this subspace is LC(X) ∗∗ = cl{F ∈ L(X);F has compact carrier}. Moreover, we study the operators on L(X) and L 0 (X) which commute with translations and convoluti...
