Abstract. We show that for a quantum L-martingale (X(t)), p > 2, there exists a Doob-Meyer decomposition of the submartingale (|X(t)|). A noncommutative counterpart of a classical process continuous with probability one is introduced, and a quantum stochastic integral of such a process with respect to an L-martingale, p > 2, is constructed. Using this construction, the uniqueness of the Doob-Me...

We construct a new infinite family of models of exotic 7-spheres. These models are direct generalizations of the Gromoll-Meyer sphere. From their symmetries, geodesics and submanifolds half of them are closer to the standard 7-sphere than any other known model for an exotic 7-sphere.

In this paper the differential (first order) properties of Meyer wavelets are investigated.

It is shown that for any expansive, integer valued 2×2 matrix, there exists a (multi-)wavelet whose Fourier transform is compactly supported and smooth. A key step is showing that for almost every equivalence class of integrally similar matrices there is a representative A which is strictly expansive in the sense that there is a compact set K which tiles the plane by integer translations and su...

For us at this conference, the l970s constitute ten years of additional data and some theoretical developments that suggest new ways of interpreting those and earlier data. The two papers presented this morning -in part, because of the assignments given the authors —— contain very different views about the lessons of the 1970s. I will come to still a third view and, as it happens, one that does...
