We prove a weak comparison principle in narrow unbounded domains for solutions to $-\Delta_p u=f(u)$ in the case $2<p< 3$ and $f(\cdot)$ is a power-type nonlinearity, or in the case $p>2$ and $f(\cdot)$ is super-linear. We exploit it to…

Compared to the entrywise transforms which preserve positive semidefiniteness, those leaving invariant the inertia of symmetric matrices reveal a surprising rigidity. We first obtain the classification of negativity preservers by combining…

We prove the existence of weak solutions for distribution-dependent stochastic Volterra equations under linear growth and continuity conditions on the coefficients and mild regularity assumptions on the kernels, including singular kernels.…

In this article, we prove a normality criterion for a family of meromorphic functions having zeros with some multiplicity which involves sharing of a holomorphic function by the members of the family. Our result generalizes Montel's…

We use a system of first-order partial differential equations that characterize the moment generating function of the $d$-variate standard normal distribution to construct a class of affine invariant tests for normality in any dimension. We…

In this paper, we reformulate certain nabla fractional difference equations which had been investigated by other researchers. The previous results seem to be incomplete. By using Contraction Mapping Theorem, we establish conditions under…

In this work, we derive some novel properties of the bimodal normal distribution. Some of its mathematical properties are examined. We provide a formal proof for the bimodality and assess identifiability. We then discuss the maximum…

We present a new geometric proof of Stanley's monotonicity theorem for lattice polytopes, using an interpretation of $\delta$-polynomials of lattice polytopes in terms of orbifold Chow rings.

Fractal properties are usually characterized by means of various statistical tools which deal with spatial average quantities. Here we focus on the determination of fluctuations around the average counts and we develop a test for the study…

The comonotonic maxitivity property of functionals frequently appears in the characterization of fuzzy integrals based on the maximum operation. In some special cases, comonotonic maxitivity implies monotonicity of functionals. The question…

We investigate qualitative properties of positive singular solutions of some elliptic systems in bounded and unbounded domains. We deduce symmetry and monotonicity properties via the moving plane procedure. Moreover, in the unbounded case,…

We give a family of monotone quantities along smooth solutions to the inverse curvature flows in Euclidean spaces. We also derive a related geometric inequality for closed hypersurfaces with positive k-th mean curvature.

For real $a>0$, let $X_a$ denote a random variable with the gamma distribution with parameters $a$ and $1$. Then $\mathsf P(X_a-a>c)$ is increasing in $a$ for each real $c\ge0$; non-increasing in $a$ for each real $c\le-1/3$; and…

In this survey article we outline the history of the twin theories of weak normality and seminormality for commutative rings and algebraic varieties with an emphasis on the recent developments in these theories over the past fifteen years.…

We review how the monotone pattern compares to other patterns in terms of enumerative results on pattern avoiding permutations. We consider three natural definitions of pattern avoidance, give an overview of classic and recent formulas, and…

We consider weak distributional solutions to the equation $-\Delta_pu=f(u)$ in half-spaces under zero Dirichlet boundary condition. We assume that the nonlinearity is positive and superlinear at zero. For $p>2$ (the case $1<p\leq2$ is…

(This is the third version of a working paper.) We develop a family of self-normalized concentration inequalities for marginal mean under martingale-difference structure and $\phi/\tilde{\phi}$-mixing conditions, where the latter includes…

We prove singularity of some distributions of random continued fractions that correspond to iterated function systems with overlap and a parabolic point. These arose while studying the conductance of Galton-Watson trees.

We construct the $\Delta$ resonance as a superposition of a bare $\Delta$ state and the $\pi N$ continuum. It is parametrized by three coupling constants for local $\pi N \Delta$ and $\pi \pi N N$ couplings and the $\Delta$ mass. The latter…

By making use of the familiar Mathieu series and its generalizations, the authors derive a number of new integral representations and present a systematic study of probability density functions and probability distributions associated with…
