We prove that if a linear equation, whose coefficients are continuous rational functions on a nonsingular real algebraic surface, has a continuous solution, then it also has a continuous rational solution. This is known to fail in higher…
Let $f: \mathbb{N}^2 \mapsto \mathbb{C}$ be an arithmetic function of two variables. We study the existence of the limit: \[\displaystyle \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{x^2 (\log x)^{k-1}} \sum_{n_1 , n_2 \le x} f (n_1, n_2) \] where $k$ is a…
The essential variables in a finite function $f$ are defined as variables which occur in $f$ and weigh with the values of that function. The number of essential variables is an important measure of complexity for discrete functions. When…
We discuss subsets $S$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^n$ such that every real valued function $f$ on $S$ is of the form {equation*} f(x_1,x_2,...,x_n) = u_1(x_1) + u_2(x_2) + ... + u_n(x_n), {equation*} and the related concepts and situations in…
Apart from an account of classical preliminaries, this volume contains a systematic introduction to Sobolev spaces and functions of bounded variation with selected applications. This is installment III of a four part discussion of certain…
Here is one of the results of this paper (with the convention ${{1}\over {0}}=+\infty$): Let $X$ be a real Hilbert space and let $J:X\to {\bf R}$ be a $C^1$ functional, with compact derivative, such that $$\alpha^*:=\max\left…
We prove that every quasi-copula can be written as a uniformly converging infinite sum of multiples of copulas. Furthermore, we characterize those quasi-copulas which can be written as a finite sum of multiples of copulas, i.e., that are a…
This preprint is dedicated to a self contained simple proof of the classical criteria for representability of algebraic functions of several complex variables by radicals. It also contains a criteria for representability of algebroidal…
If the denominator of a rational function of several variables is sum of even powers and the numerator is a monomial, then we give a numerical criterion, using the exponents involved in the expression of the rational function, to decide if…
The paper considers the Hilbert space $\hat{H}_r$ of real functions summable with the square $L^2(a,b)_r$ on any interval $\{(a,b)_r\}_{r=1}^{\infty}\in \mathbb{R}$. It is shown on the basis of the theorem on zeros of real orthogonal…
We discuss how to write down three specific natural numbers $A$, $B$, $C$ such that for any real number $r$ you've probably ever thought of, it is consistent with $\mathsf{ZFC}$ set theory that $$\def\Rb{\mathbb{R}}\def\Nb{\mathbb{N}}r =…
This note replaces two earlier preprints (1101.3737 by Koll\'ar) and (1211.6681 by Nowak). It studies, and partially solves, 3 elementary questions about continuous rational functions on real (and p-adic) algebraic varieties: Can one…
In many regular cases, there exists a (properly defined) limit of iterations of a function in several real variables, and this limit satisfies the functional equation (1-z)f(x)=f(f(xz)(1-z)/z); here z is a scalar and x is a vector. This is…
A new general and unified method of summation, which is both regular and consistent, is invented. It is based on the idea concerning a way of integers reordering. The resulting theory includes a number of explicit and closed form summation…
Several convergence results in Hilbert scales under different source conditions are proved and orders of convergence and optimal orders of convergence are derived. Also, relations between those source conditions are proved. The concept of a…
This essay contains three parts. The first part of essay focuses on the hypothesis of the functional semantic constructions (FSC-Hypothesis). This hypothesis explains that a language, a number, a money are the functional semantic…
In this paper, among other things, we prove that any subset of $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}^m$ (closed under complex conjugation and which contains the origin) is the exceptional set of uncountable many transcendental entire functions over…
This is a compendium of generating functions involving single, double sums and definite integrals. These generating functions also involve special functions in both the summand function and closed form solution.
Provided a special function of one variable and some of its derivatives can be accurately computed over a finite range, a method is presented to build a series of polynomial approximations of the function with a defined relative error over…
