The aim of this paper is to give a new proof of the complete characterization of measures for which there exist a solution of the Dirichlet problem for the complex Monge-Ampere operator in the set of plurisubharmonic functions with finite…
In this work we undertake an extension of various aspects of the potential theory of Dirichlet forms from locally compact spaces to noncommutative C*-algebras with trace. In particular we introduce finite-energy states, potentials and…
This book introduces to the theory of probabilities from the beginning. Assuming that the reader possesses the normal mathematical level acquired at the end of the secondary school, we aim to equip him with a solid basis in probability…
We consider potential theory on Bratteli diagrams arising from Macdonald polynomials. The case of Hall-Littlewood polynomials is particularly interesting; the elements of the diagram are partitions, the branching multiplicities are…
We present a new complexification scheme based on the classical double layer potential for the solution of the Helmholtz equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions in compactly perturbed half-spaces in two and three dimensions. The kernel…
Potentials play an important role in solving boundary value problems for elliptic equations. In the middle of the last century, a potential theory was constructed for a two-dimensional elliptic equation with one singular coefficient. In the…
The general purpose of this paper is to investigate the notion of "pluriharmonics" for the general potential theory associated to a convex cone $F\subset {\rm Sym}^2({\bf R}^n)$. For such $F$ there exists a maximal linear subspace $E\subset…
General potential theories concern the study of functions which are subharmonic with respect to a suitable constraint set (called a subequation) in the space of 2-jets. While interesting in their own right, general potential theories are…
In this paper, we study the mapping properties of the classical Riesz potentials acting on $L^p$-spaces. In the supercritical exponent, we obtain new "almost" Lipschitz continuity estimates for these and related potentials (including, for…
Chapter 1 deals with the problem of the existence of an upper/lower envelope from a convex cone or, more generally, a convex set for functions on the projective limit of vector lattices with values in the completion of the Kantorovich space…
We consider weighted norm inequalities for the Riesz potentials $I_\alpha$, also referred to as fractional integral operators. First we prove mixed $A_p$-$A_\infty$ type estimates in the spirit of [13, 15, 17]. Then we prove strong and weak…
We develop potential theory including a Bernstein-Walsh type estimate for functions of the form $p(z)q(f(z))$ where $p,q$ are polynomials and $f$ is holomorphic. Such functions arise in the study of certain ensembles of probability measures…
Green's famous essay (Nottingham, 1828), with which he introduced the potential function, was transcribed from its reprint in Crelle's Journal (1850-54), with several typographical corrections and a reference section added. Green starts…
We propose an interpretation of physics named potentiality realism. This view, which can be applied to classical as well as to quantum physics, regards potentialities (i.e. intrinsic, objective propensities for individual events to obtain)…
We prove that a nonlocal functional approximating the standard Dirichlet $p$-norm fails to decrease under two-point rearrangement. Furthermore, we get other properties related to this functional such as decay and compactness, and the…
Newton's potential of a massive homogeneous ellipsoid is derived via Dirichlet's discontinuous factor. At first we review part of Dirichlet's work in an English translation of the original German, and then continue with an extension of his…
The purpose of this paper is threefold. First the natural extension of Riesz potentials to the context of quasi metric measure spaces for the class of upper doubling measures are studied on Lebesgue spaces, obtaining necessary and…
Focusing first on the inner $\alpha$-harmonic measure $\varepsilon_y^A$ ($\varepsilon_y$ being the unit Dirac measure, and $\mu^A$ the inner $\alpha$-Riesz balayage of a Radon measure $\mu$ to $A\subset\mathbb R^n$ arbitrary), we describe…
We study the double obstacle problem for p-harmonic functions on arbitrary bounded nonopen sets E in quite general metric spaces. The Dirichlet and single obstacle problems are included as special cases. We obtain Adams' criterion for the…
In this paper, we investigate Riesz energy problems on unbounded conductors in $\R^d$ in the presence of general external fields $Q$, not necessarily satisfying the growth condition $Q(x)\to\infty$ as $x\to\infty$ assumed in several…
