### definable curves in definable sets

Suppose I have an UNBOUNDED subset X of $R^n$ ($R$=real numbers), definable in the o-minimal structure $R_{an, exp}$. It is possible to find an UNBOUNDED, ANALYTIC and DEFINABLE curve (i.e. ...

### Ergodic, non-atomic measure on the circle which are $\times 2$ and $\times \frac12$ invariant

There any many ergodic, $T$-invariant, non-atomic measures on the space $X = [0,1)$, where $Tx = 2x \pmod 1$ is the doubling map. My question is: are any such measures also $T^{-1}$-invariant? BYO ...

### $\int_{\mathbb{R}\setminus\left[-1,1\right]}\hat{f}^{2}\left(\xi\right)\left(\xi^{2}-1\right)d\xi$

Assume that $\hat{f}\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$, how can we compute this integral $$\int_{\mathbb{R}\setminus\left[-1,1\right]}\hat{f}^{2}\left(\xi\right)\left(\xi^{2}-1\right)d\xi$$ where $\hat{f}$ is ...

### Generating-bijective groups

We may say that two finitely generated groups $G$ and $H$ are generating-bijective when there exist homomorphisms $\phi:G\rightarrow H$ and $\psi:H\rightarrow G$ such that, for each ordered generating ...

### How to write $\mathbb{C}[G/U_-]=\oplus_{\lambda} V_{\lambda}$ explicitly?

Let $G=GL_n$ and $U_-$ the set of all lower unipotent triangular matrices. Then by Gauss Decomposition, we have $G = U_-B$, where $B$ is the set of all upper triangular matrices. The group $U_-$ acts ...

### Free cocompact action of discrete group gives a covering map [migrated]

I'd like to find a short proof of the following seemingly basic fact encountered on the second page of Atiyah's paper "Elliptic operators, discrete groups, and von Neumann algebras." ...

### Chern-Simons form and Rarita-Schwinger operator

The Rarita-Schwinger (RS) operator naturally generalizes the Dirac operator and in Physics it describes particles with spin-3/2. I was wondering if there exists any reference concerning the ...

### Example of a Schur-nontrivial group with no abelian subgroup of the form $H\times H$?

A group $G$ is Schur-nontrivial if the Schur multipler $H^2(G,U(1))$ is not the trivial group. I am trying to find an example of a Schur-nontrivial group which does not contain a subgroup of the form ...

### Sequences of random variables converging in probability to the same limit a.s [migrated]

Let $(X_n)_{n \geq 1}$ and $(Y_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be two sequences of random variables s.t. $X_n$ converges to X and $Y_n$ to $Y$ both in probability. Furthemore, $X$ = $Y$ a.s. How can I prove that, for ...
