We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…

Let $c, k_1,..., k_N $ be non-negative numbers, and define a measure $\mu $ in the wedge $W:= \{x\in \mathbb{R} ^N :\, x_i >0, i=1,...,N\} $ by $d\mu = e^{c|x|^2} x_1 ^{k_1}...x_N ^{k_N} \, dx $. It is shown that among all measurable…

Estimating the rate of convergence of the empirical measure of an i.i.d. sample to the reference measure is a classical problem in probability theory. Extending recent results of Ambrosio, Stra and Trevisan on 2-dimensional manifolds, in…

\begin{abstract} In this paper we state the following weighted Hardy type inequality for any functions $\varphi$ in a weighted Sobolev space and for weight functions $\mu$ of a quite general type \begin{equation*} c_{N,\mu}…

For $s\geqslant d$, we obtain the leading term as $N\to \infty$ of the maximal weighted $N$-point Riesz $s$-polarization (or Chebyshev constant) for a certain class of $d$-rectifiable compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}^p$. This class includes…

We study optimal mass transport problems between two measures with respect to a non-traditional cost function, i.e. a cost $c$ which can attain the value $+\infty$. We define the notion of $c$-compatibility and strong-$c$-compatibility of…

Let $M$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemanian manifold, End($M$) the set of the endomorphisms of $M$ with the usual $\mathcal{C}^0$ topology and $\phi: M\to\mathbb{R}$ continuous. We prove that there exists a dense subset of $\mathcal{A}$…

We derive an optimal bound on the sum of entropic uncertainties of two or more observables when they are sequentially measured on the same ensemble of systems. This optimal bound is shown to be greater than or equal to the bounds derived in…

We consider a generalization of the Bauer maximum principle. We work with tensorial products of convex measures sets, that are non necessarily compact but generated by their extreme points. We show that the maximum of a quasi-convex lower…

Let C(K) be the Banach space of all continuous functions on a given compact space K. We investigate the w*-sequential closure in C(K)* of the set of all finitely supported probabilities on K. We discuss the coincidence of the Baire…

This article is a first attempt to obtain weak limit formulas for weighted means of orthogonal polynomials. For this, we introduce a new mean Nevai class that guarantees the existence of an equilibrium measure for the limit of the means. We…

It is shown that, given a point $x\in\mathbbm{R}^d$, $d\ge 2$, and open sets $U_1,...,U_k$ containing $x$, any convex combination of the harmonic measures for $x$ with respect to $U_n$, $1\le n\le k$, is the limit of a sequence of harmonic…

Let $K$ be a non-polar compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$ and $\mu_K$ denote the equilibrium measure of $K$. Furthermore, let $P_n\left(\cdot, \mu_K\right)$ be the $n$-th monic orthogonal polynomial for $\mu_K$. It is shown that…

We prove a general result on equality of the weak limits of the zero counting measure, $d\nu_n$, of orthogonal polynomials (defined by a measure $d\mu$) and $\frac{1}{n} K_n(x,x) d\mu(x)$. By combining this with Mate--Nevai and Totik upper…

Weighted pluripotential theory is a rapidly developing area; and Callaghan \cite{Callaghan} recently introduced $\theta$-incomplete polynomials in \cd for $d>1$. In this paper we combine these two theories by defining weighted…

Various convergence results for the Bergman kernel of the Hilbert space of all polynomials in \C^{n} of total degree at most k, equipped with a weighted norm, are obtained. The weight function is assumed to be C^{1,1}, i.e. it is…
