We present a well-structured detailed exposition of a well-known proof of the following celebrated result solving Hilberts 13th problem on superpositions. For functions of 2 variables the statement is as follows. Kolmogorov Theorem. There are continuous functions $varphi_1,ldots,varphi_5 : [,0, 1,]to [,0,1,]$ such that for any continuous function $f: [,0,1,]^2tomathbb R$ there is a continuous function $h: [,0,3,]tomathbb R$ such that for any $x,yin [,0, 1,]$ we have $$f(x,y)=sumlimits_{k=1}^5 hleft(varphi_k(x)+sqrt{2},varphi_k(y)right).$$ The proof is accessible to non-specialists, in particular, to students familiar with only basic properties of continuous functions.
We outline a simple proof of Hulanickis theorem, that a locally compact group is amenable if and only if the left regular representation weakly contains all unitary representations. This combines some elements of the literature which have not appeared together, before.
The purpose of this short note is to provide a new and very short proof of a result by Sudakov, offering an important improvement of the classical result by Kolmogorov-Riesz on compact subsets of Lebesgue spaces.
A short and simple proof of necessity in the McCullough-Quiggin characterization of positive semi-definite kernels with the complete Pick property is presented.
Consider in $L^2 (R^l)$ the operator family $H(epsilon):=P_0(hbar,omega)+epsilon Q_0$. $P_0$ is the quantum harmonic oscillator with diophantine frequency vector $om$, $Q_0$ a bounded pseudodifferential operator with symbol holomorphic and decreasing to zero at infinity, and $epinR$. Then there exists $ep^ast >0$ with the property that if $|ep|<ep^ast$ there is a diophantine frequency $om(ep)$ such that all eigenvalues $E_n(hbar,ep)$ of $H(ep)$ near 0 are given by the quantization formula $E_alpha(hbar,ep)= {cal E}(hbar,ep)+laom(ep),alpharahbar +|om(ep)|hbar/2 + ep O(alphahbar)^2$, where $alpha$ is an $l$-multi-index.
We give a general method of extending unital completely positive maps to amalgamated free products of C*-algebras. As an application we give a dilation theoretic proof of Bocas Theorem.
