We study the following question: Given an open set $\Omega$, symmetric about 0, and a continuous, integrable, positive definite function $f$, supported in $\Omega$ and with $f(0)=1$, how large can $\int f$ be? This problem has been studied…

Starting out from results known for the most classical cases of N, Z^d, R^d or for sigma-finite abelian groups, here we define the notion of asymptotic uniform upper density in general locally compact abelian groups. Even if a bit…

We study the following question posed by Turan. Suppose K is a convex body in Euclidean space which is symmetric with respect to the origin. Of all positive definite functions supported in K, and with value 1 at the origin, which one has…

Asymptotic uniform upper density, shortened as a.u.u.d., or simply upper density, is a classical notion which was first introduced by Kahane for sequences in the real line. Syndetic sets were defined by Gottschalk and Hendlund. For a…

We study two optimization problems for positive definite functions on Euclidean space with restrictions on their support and sign: the Turan problem and the Delsarte problem. These problems have been studied also for their connections to…

Let G be a locally compact Abelian group, and let X, Y be two open sets in G. We investigate the extremal constant C(X,Y) defined to be the supremum of integrals of functions f from the class F(X,Y), where F(X,Y) is the family of positive…

The following problem originated from a question due to Paul Turan. Suppose $\Omega$ is a convex body in Euclidean space $\RR^d$ or in $\TT^d$, which is symmetric about the origin. Over all positive definite functions supported in $\Omega$,…

In this paper we further study links between concentration of measure in topological transformation groups, existence of fixed points, and Ramsey-type theorems for metric spaces. We prove that whenever the group $\Iso(\U)$ of isometries of…

We study stability of metric approximations of countable groups with respect to groups endowed with ultrametrics, the main case study being a $p$-adic analogue of Ulam stability, where we take $GL_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ as approximating groups…

In 1939 P\'al Tur\'an and J\'anos Er\H{o}d initiated the study of lower estimations of maximum norms of derivatives of polynomials, in terms of the maximum norms of the polynomials themselves, on convex domains of the complex plane. As a…

We show some preservation results of amenably extending strongly Ulam stable groups under mild decay assumptions, including quantitative preservation of asymptotic bounds under the assumption that the modulus of stability is H\"older…

We study $\epsilon$-representations of discrete groups by unitary operators on a Hilbert space. We define the notion of Ulam stability of a group which loosely means that finite-dimensional $\epsilon$-represendations are uniformly close to…

We introduce and study certain asymptotic invariants associated with fusion algebras (equipped with a dimension function), which arise naturally in the representation theory of compact quantum groups. Our invariants generalise the analogous…

Let $\mathbb{U}$ be a Banach Lie group and $S\subseteq \mathbb{U}$ an ad-bounded subset thereof, in the sense that there is a uniform bound on the adjoint operators induced by elements of $S$ on the Lie algebra of $\mathbb{U}$. We prove…

Let $X$ be a measure space with a measure-preserving action $(g,x) \mapsto g \cdot x$ of an abelian group $G$. We consider the problem of understanding the structure of measurable tilings $F \odot A = X$ of $X$ by a measurable tile $A…

In this article, we consider the problem of sampling from a probability measure $\pi$ having a density on $\mathbb{R}^d$ known up to a normalizing constant, $x\mapsto \mathrm{e}^{-U(x)} / \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} \mathrm{e}^{-U(y)} \mathrm{d}…

We consider the extremal problem of maximizing a point value jf(z)j at a given point z 2 G by some positive definite and continuous function f on an Abelian group G, where for a given symmetric open set 3 z, f vanishes outside and is…

In this paper some new series and integral representations for the Tur\'anian of modified Bessel functions of the first kind are given, which give new asymptotic expansions and tight bounds for the Tur\'an determinant in the question. It is…

Kazhdan constants of discrete groups are hard to compute and the actual constants are known only for several classes of groups. By solving a semidefinite programming problem by a computer, we obtain a lower bound of the Kazhdan constant of…

We investigate the local topological structure of non-metrizable topological groups through the lens of Tukey order and cofinal types. Motivated by recent advances in topological groups admitting an $\omega^\omega$-base, we introduce the…
