We study the so-called signed discrete Choquet integral (also called non-monotonic discrete Choquet integral) regarded as the Lov\'asz extension of a pseudo-Boolean function which vanishes at the origin. We present axiomatizations of this…
Two emergent properties in aggregation theory are investigated, namely horizontal maxitivity and comonotonic maxitivity (as well as their dual counterparts) which are commonly defined by means of certain functional equations. We completely…
We introduce the concept of quasi-Lov\'asz extension as being a mapping $f\colon I^n\to\R$ defined on a nonempty real interval $I$ containing the origin and which can be factorized as $f(x_1,...,x_n)=L(\phi(x_1),...,\phi(x_n))$, where $L$…
We study the interplay between additivity (as in the Cauchy functional equation), subadditivity and linearity. We obtain automatic continuity results in which additive or subadditive functions, under minimal regularity conditions, are…
We introduce the homogeneous and piecewise multilinear extensions and the eigenvalue problem for locally Lipschitz function pairs, in order to develop a systematic framework for relating discrete and continuous min-max problems. This also…
In this paper, we use various versions of Lov\'asz extension to systematically derive continuous formulations of problems from discrete mathematics. This will take place in the following context: (1) For combinatorial optimization problems…
The aim of this paper is to classify order-preserving functions according to their arity gap. Noteworthy examples of order-preserving functions are so-called aggregation functions. We first explicitly classify the Lov\'asz extensions of…
We discuss the classes $\fC$, $\fM$, and $\fS$ of analytic functions that can be realized as the Liv\v{s}ic characteristic functions of a symmetric densely defined operator $\dot A$ with deficiency indices $(1,1)$, the Weyl-Titchmarsh…
In this article we utilise abstract convexity theory in order to unify and generalize many different concepts from nonsmooth analysis. We introduce the concepts of abstract codifferentiability, abstract quasidifferentiability and abstract…
In this paper, we study classes of discrete convex functions: submodular functions on modular semilattices and L-convex functions on oriented modular graphs. They were introduced by the author in complexity classification of minimum…
Within Bishop-style constructive mathematics we study the classical McShane-Whitney theorem on the extendability of real-valued Lipschitz functions defined on a subset of a metric space. Using a formulation similar to the formulation of…
Hermitean Clifford analysis is a higher dimensional function theory centered around the simultaneous null solutions, called Hermitean monogenic functions, of two Hermitean conjugate complex Dirac operators. As an essential step towards the…
The classical property of associativity is very often considered in aggregation function theory and fuzzy logic. In this paper we provide axiomatizations of various classes of preassociative functions, where preassociativity is a…
The classical Lojasiewicz inequality and its extensions for partial differential equation problems (Simon) and to o-minimal structures (Kurdyka) have a considerable impact on the analysis of gradient-like methods and related problems:…
Taylor expansions of analytic functions are considered with respect to several points, allowing confluence of any of them. Cauchy-type formulas are given for coefficients and remainders in the expansions, and the regions of convergence are…
The Lovasz extension of a pseudo-Boolean function $f : \{0,1\}^n \to R$ is defined on each simplex of the standard triangulation of $[0,1]^n$ as the unique affine function $\hat f : [0,1]^n \to R$ that interpolates $f$ at the $n+1$ vertices…
The addition relation for the Riemann theta functions and for its limits, which lead to the appearance of exponential functions in soliton type equations is discussed. The presented form of addition property resolves itself to the…
The paper is devoted to the study, characterizations, and applications of variational convexity of functions, the property that has been recently introduced by Rockafellar together with its strong counterpart. First we show that these…
The aim of this paper is to show Cauchy-Kowalevski and Holmgren type theorems with infinite number of variables. We adopt von Koch and Hilbert's definition of analyticity of functions as monomial expansions. Our Cauchy-Kowalevski type…
We will generalize the concept of aggregation function for mathematical structures as a certain function between quantales. In fact, these functions turn to be exactly the lax morphism of quantales. This provides a global framework for the…
