This is an anthology of series involving rational, factorial, and power functions expressed in terms of special functions. New finite expansions involving quotient functions expressed in terms of the Hurwitz-Lerch zeta function are given.…

Given a connected and locally compact Hausdorff space X with a good base K we assign, in a functorial way, a C(X)-algebra to any precosheaf of C*-algebras A defined over K. Afterwards we consider the representation theory and the Kasparov…

We consider an infinite extension $K$ of a local field of zero characteristic which is a union of an increasing sequence of finite extensions. $K$ is equipped with an inductive limit topology; its conjugate $\bar{K}$ is a completion of $K$…

We prove a quantitative distortion theorem for iterated function systems that generate sets of continued fractions. As a consequence, we obtain upper and lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of any set of real or complex continued…

Let $S$ be a compact Hausdorff space and $X$ a complex manifold. We consider the space $C(S,X)$ of continuous maps $S\to X$, and prove that any bounded holomorphic function on this space can be continued to a holomorphic function, possibly…

This paper introduces the ring of all real valued Baire one functions, denoted by $B_1(X)$ and also the ring of all real valued bounded Baire one functions, denoted by $B_1^*(X)$. Though the resemblance between $C(X)$ and $B_1(X)$ is the…

Structural stability of holomorphic functions has been the subject of much research in the last fifty years. Due to various technicalities, however, most of that work has focused on so-called finite-type functions (functions whose set of…

We show that for a transcendental entire function the set of points whose orbit under iteration is bounded can have arbitrarily small positive Hausdorff dimension.

Given $K$ arbitrary poles, which are neither necessarily distinct nor bounded, on the extended real line, a corresponding ordered base of rational functions orthogonal with respect to varying exponential weights is constructed: this gives…

We extend results of Denef, Zahidi, Demeyer and the second author to show the following. (1) Rational integers have a single-fold Diophantine definition over the ring of integral functions of any function field of characteristic 0. (2)…

We consider small perturbations of a conformal iterated function system (CIFS) produced by either adding or removing some generators with small derivative from the original. We establish a formula, utilizing transfer operators arising from…

For a compact space X we consider extending endomorphisms of the algebra C(X) to be endomorphisms of Arens-Hoffman and Cole extensions of C(X). Given a non-linear, monic polynomial p in C(X)[t], with C(X)[t]/pC(X)[t] semi-simple, we show…

Let $W$ be a subset of the set of real points of a real algebraic variety $X$. We investigate which functions $f: W \to \mathbb R$ are the restrictions of rational functions on $X$. We introduce two new notions: ${\it curve-rational \,…

Semi-free ideal rings, or semifirs, were introduced by Paul M. Cohn to study universal localizations in the non-commutative setting. We provide new examples of semifirs consisting of analytic functions in several non-commuting variables.…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be rational functions of degree at least two with complex coefficients such that $\mathbb{C}(X,Y)=\mathbb{C}(z)$. We study the problem of determining when the field extension $[\mathbb{C}(z):\mathbb{C}(X)\cap\mathbb{C}(Y)]$…

We develop the geometry of Hurwitz continued fractions, a major tool in understanding the approximation properties of complex numbers by ratios of Gaussian integers. Based on a thorough study of the geometric properties of Hurwitz continued…

We study the functional identity $G(x)f(x)=H(x)$ on a division ring $D$, where $f \colon D\to D$ is an additive map and $G(X)\ne 0, H(X)$ are generalized polynomials in the variable $X$ with coefficients in $D$. Precisely, it is proved that…

We show that if $\mathcal{T}$ is any Hausdorff topology on ${\omega}_{1}$, then any subset of ${\omega}_{1}$ which is homeomorphic to the rationals under $\mathcal{T}$ can be refined to a homeomorphic copy of the rationals on which…

Let X be a compact Hausdorff space. Then the radius of comparison rc ( C (X)) is related to the covering dimension dim (X) by rc ( C (X)) \geq [ dim (X) - 7 ] / 2. Except for the additive constant, this improves a result of Elliott and Niu,…

Let Y be an infinite covering space of a projective manifold M in P^N of dimension n geq 2. Let C be the intersection with M of at most n-1 generic hypersurfaces of degree d in P^N. The preimage X of C in Y is a connected submanifold. Let…
