On Riesz decomposition of Volterra operator
Let $T:L^2((0,1)) \to L^2((0,1))$ be the Volterra operator defined by
$$ Tf(x) = \int_0^x f(t)\,dt.$$
Given any $\lambda\neq 0$ it is well known that there exists some positive integer $n=n(\lambda)$ ...

Rigorous justification for this formal solution to $f(x+1)+f(x)=g(x)$
Let $g\in C(\Bbb R)$ be given, we want to find a solution $f\in C(\Bbb R)$ of the equation
$$
f(x+1) + f(x) = g(x).
$$
We may rewrite the equation using the right-shift operator $(Tf)(x) = f(x+1)$...

Commuting flows problem for non-Lipschitz vector fields
Let $X$ be a continuous vector field on a (say compact) manifold $M$, if $X$ has ODE uniqueness then we can define its associated flow $\mathcal F_X:\mathbb R\times M\to M$ uniquely given by $\mathcal ...

Does this sequence contain a nonnegative number?
Let $G$ be a (discrete) torsion free group with identity $e$. Recall that for an element $\alpha=\sum a_gg$ in $\mathbb C[G]$ (complex functions on $G$ with compact support), $\alpha^*$ is defined to ...

Operator topologies
Let $L(H)$ be the space of bounded operators on some Hilbert space.
We can endow this space with the operator norm topology, the strong operator topology (SOT) and the weak operator topology (WOT).
