The pivotal quality of proximity graphs is connectivity, i.e. all nodes in the graph are connected to one another either directly or via intermediate nodes. These types of graphs are robust, i.e., they are able to function well even if they…

In skew-product systems with contractive factors, all orbits asymptotically approach the graph of the so-called sync function; hence, the corresponding regularity properties primarily matter. In the literature, sync function Lipschitz…

Skorokhod's J1 and M1 topologies are standard tools in proving limit theorems for stochastic processes. Motivated by applications, we extend these topologies so that they are capable of describing the convergence of a sequence of functions…

In this note, we consider two types of estimates for the Harnack distance in bounded domains of a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. The first type is based on the geometric concept of the entropy of arcwise connectedness. We used this…

Having a function $f$ and a set of functionals $\{\mathcal{C}_{n}\}$, $c_n^f \equiv \mathcal{C}_n \left(f\right)$, one can interpret function approximation very generally as a construction of some function $\mathcal{A}_{N}^{f}$ such that…

We provide a characterization of the variadic functions which are barycentrically preassociative as compositions of length-preserving associative string functions with one-to-one unary maps. We also discuss some consequences of this…

In this preliminary study, we provide two methods for estimating the gradients of functions of real value. Both methods are built on derivative estimations that are calculated using the standard method or the Squire-Trapp method for any…
