In this paper, we prove a sum set estimate and the exact sum set theorem for unimodular Kac algebras. Combining the characterization of minimizers of the Donoso–Stark uncertainty principle and the Hirschman–Beckner uncertainty principle, we characterize the extremal pairs of Young’s inequality and extremal operators of the Hausdorff–Young inequality for unimodular Kac algebras.

In this paper, we obtain several new continuous selection theorems for multi-valued mappings on completely regular spaces and fixed point theorems for multi-valued maps on nonmetrizable spaces. They, in particular, provide a partial solution of a conjecture of X. Wu.

We show in this paper that every bijective linear isometry between the continuous section spaces of two non-square Banach bundles gives rise to a Banach bundle isomorphism. This is to support our expectation that the geometric structure of the continuous section space of a Banach bundle determines completely its bundle structures. We also describe the structure of an into isometry from a continuous section space into an other. However, we demonstrate by an example that a non-surjective linear isometry can be far away from a subbundle embedding.

Let A 1, A 2 be standard operator algebras on complex Banach spaces X 1, X 2, respectively. For k 2, let (i 1,, i m) be a sequence with terms chosen from {1,, k}, and define the generalized Jordan product T 1 T k= T i 1 T i m+ T i m T i 1 on elements in A i. This includes the usual Jordan product A 1 A 2= A 1 A 2+ A 2 A 1, and the triple {A 1, A 2, A 3}= A 1 A 2 A 3+ A 3 A 2 A 1. Assume that at least one of the terms in (i 1,, i m) appears exactly once. Let a map : A 1 A 2 satisfy that ( (A 1) (A k))= (A 1 A k) whenever any one of A 1,, A k has rank at most one. It is shown in this paper that if the range of contains all operators of rank at most three, then must be a Jordan isomorphism multiplied by an m th root of unity. Similar results for maps between self-adjoint operators acting on Hilbert spaces are also obtained.
