We present a method for constructing global analytical expressions that approximate a function over its entire range. These approximations not only mirror the original function as accurately as desired, but are purposefully created to…

Let $\mathcal{M}_1$ denote the space of solutions $z(x,y)$ to an elliptic, real analytic Monge-Amp\`ere equation ${\rm det} (D^2 z)=\varphi(x,y,z,Dz)>0$ whose graphs have a non-removable isolated singularity at the origin. We prove that…

In this note, we classify solutions to a class of Monge-Amp\`ere equations whose right hand side may be degenerate or singular in the half space. Solutions to these equations are special solutions to a class of fourth order equations,…

In this short, conceptual paper we observe that essentially the same mathematics applies in three contexts with disparate literatures: (1) sigmoidal and RBF approximation of smooth functions, (2) rational approximation of analytic functions…

Submodular function maximization has found a wealth of new applications in machine learning models during the past years. The related supermodular maximization models (submodular minimization) also offer an abundance of applications, but…

We show that a recent result of Demailly and Pham Hoang Hiep \cite{DH} implies a description of plurisubharmonic functions with given Monge-Amp\`ere mass and smallest possible log canonical threshold. We also study an equality case for the…

Generalized analytic functions over generalized analytic manifolds are build from sums of convergent real power series with non-negative real exponents (and some well-ordering condition on the support). In a paper by Mart\'in-Villaverde,…

Given sufficiently many components, it is often cited that finite mixture models can approximate any other probability density function (pdf) to an arbitrary degree of accuracy. Unfortunately, the nature of this approximation result is…

Let $w_0$ be a bounded, $C^3$, strictly plurisubharmonic function defined on $B_1\subset \mathbb{C}^n$. Then $w_0$ has a neighborhood in $L^{\infty}(B_1)$. Suppose that we have a function $\phi$ in this neighborhood with $1-\epsilon \le…

Given a negative plurisubharmonic function $\phi$ in a bounded pseudoconvex domain of ${\mathbb C}^n$, we introduce and study its residual function $g_\phi$ determined by the asymptotic behavior of $\phi$ near its singularity points, both…

We reduce the Openness Conjecture of Demailly and Koll\'ar on the singularities of plurisubharmonic functions to a purely algebraic statement.

We show that there is a largely unexplored class of functions (positive polymatroids) that can define proper discrete metrics over pairs of binary vectors and that are fairly tractable to optimize over. By exploiting submodularity, we are…

In this paper we consider the approximation of a function by its interpolating multilinear spline and the approximation of its derivatives by the derivatives of the corresponding spline. We derive formulas for the uniform approximation…

We study the geometric properties of complex manifolds possessing a pair of plurisubharmonic functions satisfying Monge-Amp\`ere type of condition. The results are applied to characterize complex manifolds biholomorphic to $\C^{N}$ viewed…

Submodular functions are a fundamental object of study in combinatorial optimization, economics, machine learning, etc. and exhibit a rich combinatorial structure. Many subclasses of submodular functions have also been well studied and…

We prove several results showing that plurisubharmonic functions with various bounds on their Monge-Ampere masses on a bounded hyperconvex domain always admit global plurisubharmonic subextension with logarithmic growth at infinity.

Analytic continuations of integer-valued parameters can lead to profound insights, such as angular momentum in Regge theory, the number of replicas in spin glasses, the number of internal degrees of freedom, the spacetime dimension in…

In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem for Monge-Amp\`ere type equations for $p$-plurisubharmonic functions on Riemannian manifolds. The $a$ $priori$ estimates up to the second order derivatives of solutions are established. The…

We enhance the approximation capabilities of algebraic polynomials by composing them with homeomorphisms. This composition yields families of functions that remain dense in the space of continuous functions, while enabling more accurate…

We introduce a two-phase approximation method designed to resolve singularities in three-dimensional harmonic Dirichlet problems. The approach utilizes the classical Green's function representation, decomposing the function into its…
