This is an announcement for the paper "A universal Lipschitz extension property of Gromov hyperbolic spaces" by A. Brudnyi and Yu. Brudnyi. Abstract: A metric space has the universal Lipschitz extension property if for each subspace S embedded quasi-isometrically into an arbitrary metric space M there exists a continuous linear extension of Banach-valued Lipschitz functions on S to those on all of M. We show that the finite direct sum of Gromov hyperbolic spaces of bounded geometry is universal in the sense of this definition.

This is an announcement for the paper "Random sets of isomorphism of linear operators on Hilbert space" by Roman Vershynin. Abstract: This note deals with a problem of the probabilistic Ramsey theory. Given a linear operator T on a Hilbert space with an orthogonal basis, we define the isomorphic structure Sigma(T) as the family of all finite subsets of the basis such that T restricted to their span is a nice isomorphism. We give an optimal bound on the size of Sigma(T). This improves and extends in several ways the principle of restricted invertibility due to Bourgain and Tzafriri. With an appropriate notion of randomness, we obtain a randomized principle of restricted invertibility.

(From PIMS) NICOLE TOMCZAK-JAEGERMAN: RECIPIENT OF THE 2006 CRM-FIELDS-PIMS PRIZE The directors of the Centre de recherches mathematiques (CRM) of l'Universite de Montreal - Francois Lalonde, the Fields Institute - Barbara Keyfitz, and the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences - Ivar Ekeland, are pleased to announce the awarding of the CRM-Fields-PIMS Prize for 2006 to Professor Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann of the University of Alberta in recognition of her exceptional achievements in functional analysis and geometric analysis. The prize was established in 1994 as the CRM-Fields prize to recognize exceptional research in the mathematical sciences. In 2005, PIMS became an equal partner and the name was changed to the CRM-Fields-PIMS prize. A committee appointed by the three institutes chooses the recipient. Nicole Tomczak-Jaegermann, this year's recipient, is one of the world's leading mathematicians working in functional analysis. She has made outstanding contributions to infinite dimensional Banach space theory, asymptotic geometric analysis, and the interaction between these two streams of modern functional analysis. She holds a Canada Research Chair in Geometric Analysis at the University of Alberta. In 1998 she gave an invited lecture at the International Congress of Mathematicians, is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, received a Killam Research Fellowship, and the Krieger-Nelson Prize Lectureship of the Canadian Mathematical Society. Previous recipients of the prize are H.S.M. (Donald) Coxeter, George A. Elliott, James Arthur, Robert V. Moody, Stephen A. Cook, Israel Michael Sigal, William T. Tutte, John B. Friedlander, John McKay, Edwin Perkins, Donald A. Dawson, and David Boyd. For more information please see http://www.pims.math.ca

This is an announcement for the paper "Growth conditions and inverse producing extensions" by Catalin Badea and Vladimir Mueller. Abstract: We study the invertibility of Banach algebras elements in their extensions, and invertible extensions of Banach and Hilbert space operators with prescribed growth conditions for the norm of inverses. As applications, the solutions of two open problems are obtained. In the first one we give a characterization of E(T)-subscalar operators in terms of growth conditions. In the second one we show that operators satisfying a Beurling-type growth condition possess Bishop's property beta. Other applications are also given.

This is an announcement for the paper "Planar earthmover is not in $L_1$" by Assaf Naor and Gideon Schechtman. Abstract: We show that any $L_1$ embedding of the transportation cost (a.k.a. Earthmover) metric on probability measures supported on the grid $\{0,1,...,n\}^2\subseteq \R^2$ incurs distortion $\Omega(\sqrt{\log n})$. We also use Fourier analytic techniques to construct a simple $L_1$ embedding of this space which has distortion $O(\log n)$.

This is an announcement for the paper "A comment on the low-dimensional Busemann-Petty problem" by Emanuel Milman. Abstract: The generalized Busemann-Petty problem asks whether centrally-symmetric convex bodies having larger volume of all m-dimensional sections necessarily have larger volume. When m>3 this is known to be false, but the cases m=2,3 are still open. In those cases, it is shown that when the smaller body's radial function is a (n-m)-th root of the radial function of a convex body, the answer to the generalized Busemann-Petty problem is positive (for any larger star-body). Several immediate corollaries of this observation are also discussed.

This is an announcement for the paper "Dual mixed volumes and the slicing problem" by Emanuel Milman. Abstract: We develop a technique using dual mixed-volumes to study the isotropic constants of some classes of spaces. In particular, we recover, strengthen and generalize results of Ball and Junge concerning the isotropic constants of subspaces and quotients of L_p and related spaces. An extension of these results to negative values of p is also obtained, using generalized intersection-bodies. In particular, we show that the isotropic constant of a convex body which is contained in an intersection-body is bounded (up to a constant) by the ratio between the latter's mean-radius and the former's volume-radius. We also show how type or cotype 2 may be used to easily prove inequalities on any isotropic measure.

CBMS conference on A Probabalistic and Combinatorial Approach in Analysis
by zvavitch＠math.kent.edu 07 Dec '05

07 Dec '05

Dear Friends, In August 2006 (from the 6th to the 13th, to be precise), the Department of Mathematical Science of Kent State University will be hosting a CBMS conference, 'A Probabilistic and Combinatorial Approach in Analysis', with Professor Mark Rudelson from the University of Missouri as the main speaker. We hope that you will be able to participate. With CBMS funding we will be able to cover local expenses for a limited number of participants, so it is advisable to reply as soon as possible to Artem Zvavitch (zvavitch(a)math.kent.edu). At this time, we have very limited funding for travel; to be as efficient as possible in the use of the available travel funds, we encourage you to encourage your graduate students and postdocs to participate, as well. For further information and breaking news a look at http://www.math.kent.edu/math/CBMS.cfm is advised. Please note that your early response will help us gauge the needs for housing, lecture room(s), etc. We hope to be sending out information regarding housing by the end of December. HOPE TO SEE YOU IN KENT NEXT AUGUST!! Best Regards, Richard Aron, Joe Diestel, Per Enflo, Victor Lomonosov, Andrew Tonge, and Artem Zvavitch

This is an announcement for the paper "Generalized intersection bodies" by Emanuel Milman. Abstract: We study the structures of two types of generalizations of intersection-bodies and the problem of whether they are in fact equivalent. Intersection-bodies were introduced by Lutwak and played a key role in the solution of the Busemann-Petty problem. A natural geometric generalization of this problem considered by Zhang, led him to introduce one type of generalized intersection-bodies. A second type was introduced by Koldobsky, who studied a different analytic generalization of this problem. Koldobsky also studied the connection between these two types of bodies, and noted that an equivalence between these two notions would completely settle the unresolved cases in the generalized Busemann-Petty problem. We show that these classes share many identical structure properties, proving the same results using Integral Geometry techniques for Zhang's class and Fourier transform techniques for Koldobsky's class. Using a Functional Analytic approach, we give several surprising equivalent formulations for the equivalence problem, which reveal a deep connection to several fundamental problems in the Integral Geometry of the Grassmann Manifold.
