This book presents, in a clear and structured way, the set function \mathcal{T} and how it evolved since its inception by Professor F. Burton Jones in the 1940s. It starts with a very solid introductory chapter, with all the prerequisite material for navigating through the rest …
The main aim of this book is the study of locally compact groups from a geometric perspective, with an emphasis on appropriate metrics that can be defined on them. The approach has been successful for finitely generated groups, and can favourably be extended to locally compact g…
Axioms where are motivated by quantum mechanics are formulated for a probability-logic system. It is shown that these axioms characterize precisely those lattices which are lattices of all projections in a irreducible von Neumann algebra of type II₁ or I[subscript]N, N [greater-…
A long standing conjecture of Bagemihl (1956) states that there can be at most eight tetrahedra in 3-space, such that every two of them meet in a two-dimensional set. We settle this conjecture affirmatively. We get some information on families of similar nature, consisting of ei…
