The paper presents a study of Fuglede’s $p$ -module of systems of measures in condensers in polarizable Carnot groups. In particular, we calculate the $p$ -module of measures in spherical ring domains, find the extremal measures, and finally, extend a theorem by Rodin to these groups.

We study the periodic homogenization of first order front propagations. Based on PDE methods, we provide a simple proof that, for n ≥ 3, the class of centrally symmetric polytopes with rational coordinates and nonempty interior is admissible as effective fronts, which was also established by I. Babenko and F. Balacheff [Sur la forme de la boule unit\'e de la norme stable unidimensionnelle, Manuscripta Math. 119 (2006) 347--358] and M. Jotz [Hedlund metrics and the stable norm, Diff. Geometry Appl. 27 (2009) 543--550] in the form of stable norms as an extension of G. A. Hedlund's classical result [Geodesics on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold with periodic coefficients, Ann. Math. 33 (1932) 719--739]. Besides, we obtain the optimal convergence rate of the homogenization problem for this class.

Let 1 p+. We show that the positive part of the closed unit ball of a non-commutative L p-space, as a metric space, is a complete Jordan-invariant for the underlying von Neumann algebra.
