Let$X$and$Y$be closed subspaces of the Lorentz sequence space$d(v, p)$and the Orlicz sequence space$l$_{$M$}, respectively. It is proved that every bounded linear operator from$X$to$Y$is compact whenever $$p > \beta _M : = \inf \{ q > 0:\inf \{ M(\lambda t)/M(\lambda )t^q :0< \lambda ,t \leqslant 1\} > 0.$$ As an application, the reflexivity of the space of bounded linear operators acting from$d(v, p)$to$l$_{$M$}is characterized.

We construct balanced metrics on the family of non-Khler Calabi-Yau threefolds that are obtained by smoothing after contracting ( 1, 1) -rational curves on a Khler Calabi-Yau threefold. As an application, we construct balanced metrics on complex manifolds diffeomorphic to the connected sum of ( 1, 1) copies of ( 1, 1) .

The global well-posedness of the Boltzmann equation with initial data of large amplitude has remained a long-standing open problem. In this paper, by developing a new L x L v 1 L x , v approach, we prove the global existence and uniqueness of mild solutions to the Boltzmann equation in the whole space or torus for a class of initial data with bounded velocity-weighted L x L v 1 L x , v norm under some smallness condition on the L x L v 1 L x , v norm as well as defect mass, energy and entropy so that the initial data allow large amplitude oscillations. Both the hard and soft potentials with angular cut-off are considered, and the large time behavior of solutions in the L x L v 1 L x , v norm with explicit rates of convergence are also studied.

In this paper, we show that there is a Cantor set of initial conditions in the planar 4‑body problem such that all four bodies escape to infinity in a finite time, avoiding collisions. This proves the Painlevé conjecture for the 4‑body case, and thus settles the last open case of the conjecture.
