Let G be a finitely generated group which is hyperbolic relative to a finite family fH1; . . . ;Hng of subgroups. We prove that G is uniformly embeddable in a Hilbert space if and only if each subgroup Hi is uniformly embeddable in a Hilbert space.

in this paper, we deal with the subdierential concept onhadamard spaces. flat hadamard spaces are characterized, and nec-essary and sucient conditions are presented to prove that the subdif-ferential set in hadamard spaces is nonempty. proximal subdierentialin hadamard spaces is addressed and some basic properties are high-lighted. finally, a density theorem for subdierential set is establi...

We show that every abelian Polish group is the topological factor-group of a closed subgroup of the full unitary group of a separable Hilbert space with the strong operator topology. It follows that all orbit equivalence relations induced by abelian Polish group actions are Borel reducible to some orbit equivalence relations induced by actions of the unitary group.

Characterizing the universal coverings of smooth projective varieties is an old and hard question. Central to the subject is a conjecture of Shafarevich according to which the universal cover X̃ of a smooth projective variety is holomorphically convex, meaning that for every infinite sequence of points without limit points in X̃ there exists a holomorphic function unbounded on this sequence. In t...

The plane strain deformation of an isotropic, homogeneous, poroelastic medium caused by an inclined line-load is studied using the Biot linearized theory for fluid saturated porous materials. The analytical expressions for the displacements and stresses in the medium are obtained by applying suitable boundary conditions. The solutions are obtained analytically for the limiting case of undrained...

Several axioms concerning probabilistic beliefs are examined here, and the relations between them are established, using belief spaces that generalize Harsanyi type spaces. Two axioms concerning highorder probabilistic beliefs are investigated in particular. The first is the triviality axiom, which says that one is certain (that is, has a belief of degree one) of one’s own beliefs. The second i...

We obtain some results about Borel maps with meager fibers on completely metrizable separable spaces. The results are related to a recent dichotomy by Sabok and Zapletal, concerning Borel maps and σ-ideals generated by closed sets. In particular, we give a “classical” proof of this dichotomy. We shall also show that for certain natural σ-ideals I generated by closed sets in compact metrizable s...

In the present paper, we introduce the sequence space [{l_p}(E,Delta) = left{ x = (x_n)_{n = 1}^infty : sum_{n = 1}^infty left|  sum_{j in {E_n}} x_j - sum_{j in E_{n + 1}} x_jright| ^p < infty right},] where $E=(E_n)$ is a partition of finite subsets of the positive integers and $pge 1$. We investigate its topological properties and inclusion relations. Moreover, we consider the problem of fin...
