We attempt to bring some modest unity to three subareas of heavy tail analysis and extreme value theory: limit laws for componentwise maxima of iid random variables;hidden regular variation and asymptotic independence;conditioned limit laws…
In this paper we introduce and study the concept of set extremality for systems of convex sets in vector spaces without topological structures. Characterizations of the extremal systems of sets are obtained in the form of the convex…
We study solutions $(x_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ of nonhomogeneous nonlinear second order difference equations of the type $\ell_n = x_n ( \sigma_{n,1} x_{n+1} + \sigma_{n,0} x_n + \sigma_{n,-1} x_{n-1} ) + \kappa_n x_n$, with given initial…
This note establishes the full range of $L^p$--$L^q$ Fourier extension estimates for the model $n$-dimensional quadratic submanifold in ${\mathbb R}^{n(n+3)/2}$ parametrized by $\gamma(x_1,\ldots,x_n) := (x_1,\ldots,x_n, (x_i x_j)_{1 \leq i…
For a family $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs, let $ex(n,\mathcal{F})$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph which contains none of the members of $\mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. A longstanding problem in extremal graph theory asks…
In the class of normalized sine-polynomials $S(t),$ non-negative on $[0,\pi],$ W.Rogosinski and G.Szeg\H{o} 1950 considered a number of extremal problems and proved, among other things, sharp upper and lower estimates for the coefficient…
We give a classification of all third-order nonlinear evolution equations which admit solvable Lie symmetry algebras $\mathsf{A}$ and which are not linearized. We have found that there are 48 types of equations for $\dim\mathsf{A}=3$, 88…
We give the structure of discrete two-dimensional finite sets $A,\,B\subseteq \R^2$ which are extremal for the recently obtained inequality $|A+B|\ge (\frac{|A|}{m}+\frac{|B|}{n}-1)(m+n-1)$, where $m$ and $n$ are the minimum number of…
Different dependence scenarios can arise in multivariate extremes, entailing careful selection of an appropriate class of models. In bivariate extremes, the variables are either asymptotically dependent or are asymptotically independent.…
We show that there are sets of integers with asymptotic density arbitrarily close to 1 in which there is no solution to the equation ab=c, with a,b,c in the set. We also consider some natural generalizations, as well as a specific numerical…
The long-root elements in Lie algebras of Chevalley type have been well studied and can be characterized as extremal elements, that is, elements $x$ such that the image of $(\ad x)^2$ lies in the subspace spanned by $x$. In this paper,…
Revised version. Proper credits added. In this paper we study divisorial extremal neighborhoods f:Y-->X, such that X is a cAn type three dimensional terminal singularity, and C=f(E) is a smooth curve, where E is the f-exceptional divisor.…
The aim of this paper is to investigate extremum problems with pay-off being the total variational distance metric defined on the space of probability measures, subject to linear functional constraints on the space of probability measures,…
We study weighted simultaneous rational approximation to points of the form $(1,\xi,\xi^2)$, for a class of extremal real numbers $\xi$, within the framework of multi-parametric geometry of numbers.
Conditionally specified models are often used to describe complex multivariate data. Such models assume implicit structures on the extremes. So far, no methodology exists for calculating extremal characteristics of conditional models since…
In our previous papers we introduced categorical invariants, which are, roughly speaking, sets of triangulated subcategories in a given triangulated category and their quotients. Here is extended the list of examples, where these sets are…
We introduce a family of extremal polynomials associated with the prolongation of a stratified nilpotent Lie algebra. These polynomials are related to a new algebraic characterization of abnormal subriemannian geodesics in stratified…
We consider the problem of finding a best uniform approximation to the standard monomial on the unit ball in $\bbC^2$ by polynomials of lower degree with complex coefficients. We reduce the problem to a one-dimensional weighted minimization…
Various events in the nature, economics and in other areas force us to combine the study of extremes with regression and other methods. A useful tool for reducing the role of nuisance regression, while we are interested in the shape or…
This article investigates the relation between the distributional chaos and the existence of a scrambled triple. We show that for a continuous mapping $f$ acting on a compact metric space $(X,d)$, the possession of an infinite extremal…
