The Krylov-Safonov theorem says that solutions to non-divergence uniformly elliptic equations with rough coefficients are H\"{o}lder continuous. The proof combines a basic measure estimate with delicate localization and covering arguments.…
Replacing operators with continuous operator-valued functions, we prove time-dependent versions of well-known results on compressions and diagonals of bounded operators. The setting of smooth functions is also addressed. Our results have no…
We present proofs of basic results, including those developed by Harold Bell, for the plane fixed point problem: does every map of a non-separating plane continuum have a fixed point? Some of these results had been announced much earlier by…
The Krasnoselskii-Mann iteration is an important algorithm in optimization and variational analysis for finding fixed points of nonexpansive mappings. In the general case, it produces a sequence converging \emph{weakly} to a fixed point…
We introduce regularity notions for averaged nonexpansive operators. Combined with regularity notions of their fixed point sets, we obtain linear and strong convergence results for quasicyclic, cyclic, and random iterations. New convergence…
In 1947 Nathan Fine gave a beautiful product for the number of binomial coefficients $\binom{n}{m}$, for $m$ in the range $0 \leq m \leq n$, that are not divisible by $p$. We give a matrix product that generalizes Fine's formula,…
The Hardy uncertainty principle says that no function is better localized together with its Fourier transform than the Gaussian. The textbook proof of the result, as well as one of the original proofs by Hardy, refers to the…
For a class of functionals having the $(p,q)$-growth, we establish an improved range of exponents $p$, $q$ for which the Lavrentiev phenomenon does not occur. The proof is based on a standard mollification argument and Young convolution…
Fractional derivatives are a well-studied generalization of integer order derivatives. Naturally, for optimization, it is of interest to understand the convergence properties of gradient descent using fractional derivatives. Convergence…
In the present paper we obtain a new homological version of the implicit function theorem and some versions of the Darboux theorem. Such results are proved for continuous maps on topological manifolds. As a consequence, some versions of…
The stochastic gradient descent has been widely used for solving composite optimization problems in big data analyses. Many algorithms and convergence properties have been developed. The composite functions were convex primarily and…
In the early 1990's, Avram and Taqqu showed that regularly varying moving average processes with all coefficients nonnegative and the tail index strictly between 0 and 2 satisfy functional limit theorem. They also conjectured that an…
Nivat's conjecture is a famous open problem in symbolic dynamics. The existence of nonexpansive lines that when endowed with a given orientation are one-sided nonexpansive directions is at the heart of some advances. In his Ph.D. thesis,…
Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) and its variants are the main workhorses for solving large-scale optimization problems with nonconvex objective functions. Although the convergence of SGDs in the (strongly) convex case is well-understood,…
A rigorous proof is given for the convergence of the solutions of a viscous Cahn-Hilliard system to the solution of the regularized version of the forward-backward parabolic equation, as the coefficient of the diffusive term goes to 0.…
We give a complete proof of the generalized Khavinson conjecture which states that, for bounded harmonic functions on the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$, the sharp constants in the estimates for their radial derivatives and for their gradients…
In this paper, a strong convergence theorem for asymptotically nonexpansive mappings in a uniformly convex and smooth Banach space is proved by using metric projections. This theorem extends and improves the recent strong convergence…
Schauder's theorem asserts that a bounded linear operator between Banach spaces is compact if ad only if its adjoint is. We give a new proof of this result, which is both short and completely elementary in the sense that it does not depend…
The graduated optimization approach, also known as the continuation method, is a popular heuristic to solving non-convex problems that has received renewed interest over the last decade. Despite its popularity, very little is known in terms…
In this short note we have proved an enhanced version of a theorem of Lorentz [1] and its generalization to the multivariate case which gives a non- uniform estimate of degree of approximation by a polynomial with positive coefficients. The…
