A strong submeasure on a compact metric space X is a sub-linear and bounded operator on the space of continuous functions on X. A strong submeasure is positive if it is non-decreasing. By Hahn-Banach theorem, a positive strong submeasure is…

Let $k \geq 3$. If a multiplicative function $f$ satisfies \[ f(a_1^3 + a_2^3 + \cdots + a_k^3) = f(a_1^3) + f(a_2^3) + \cdots + f(a_k^3) \] for all $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k \in \mathbb{N}$, then $f$ is the identity function. The set of…

Two meromorphic functions $f$ and $g$ are said to weakly share a small function $a$ with bi-weight $(n,k)$ if the functions $f-a$ and $g-a$ have the same zeros with multiplicities truncated at level $n+1$, while zeros whose multiplicities…

Let $L$ be a positive self-adjoint operator on $L^2(X)$, where $X$ is a $\sigma$-finite metric measure space. When $\alpha \in (0,1)$, the subordinated semigroup $\{\exp(-tL^{\alpha}):t \in \mathbb{R}^+\}$ can be defined on $L^2(X)$ and…

Let $L$ be a linear operator in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ which generates a semigroup $e^{-tL}$ whose kernels $p_t(x,y)$ satisfy the Gaussian upper bound. In this paper, we investigate several kinds of weighted norm inequalities for the conical…

We study the generalization of $m$-isometries and $m$-contractions (for positive integers $m$) to what we call $a$-isometries and $a$-contractions for positive real numbers $a$. We show that any Hilbert space operator, satisfying an…

We show that some singular maximal functions and singular Radon transforms satisfy a weak type $L\log\log L$ inequality. Examples include the maximal function and Hilbert transform associated to averages along a parabola. The weak type…

We study concave trace functions of several operator variables and formulate and prove multivariate generalisations of the Golden-Thompson inequality. The obtained results imply that certain functionals in quantum statistical mechanics have…

Let $V\in C^2(\R^d)$ such that $\mu_V(\d x):= \e^{-V(x)}\,\d x$ is a probability measure, and let $\aa\in (0,2)$. Explicit criteria are presented for the $\aa$-stable-like Dirichlet form $$\E_{\aa,V}(f,f):= \int_{\R^d\times\R^d}…

Let F be a real-valued convex function on the complex plane, and let Ps(b) be a pseudodifferential operator with symbol b. Under certain natural assumptions about properties of pseudodifferential operators, we prove that the sum of F(z)…

We define the local trace function for subspaces of $\ltworn$ which are invariant under integer translation. Our trace function contains the dimension function and the spectral function defined by Bownik and Rzeszotnik and completely…

Let $p$ be a positive number and $h$ a function on $\mathbb{R}^+$ satisfying $h(xy) \ge h(x) h(y)$ for any $x, y \in \mathbb{R}^+$. A non-negative continuous function $f$ on $K (\subset \mathbb{R}^+)$ is said to be {\it operator…

Permutation rational functions over finite fields have attracted high interest in recent years. However, only a few of them have been exhibited. This article studies a class of permutation rational functions constructed using trace maps on…

We begin by reviewing Zhu's theorem on modular invariance of trace functions associated to a vertex operator algebra, as well as a generalisation by the author to vertex operator superalgebras. This generalisation involves objects that we…

It is known that for a completely positive and trace preserving (cptp) map ${\cal N}$, $\text{Tr}$ $\exp$$\{ \log \sigma$ $+$ ${\cal N}^\dagger [\log {\cal N}(\rho)$ $-\log {\cal N}(\sigma)] \}$ $\leqslant$ $\text{Tr}$ $\rho$ when $\rho$,…

We present a function that tests for primality, factorizes composites and builds a closed form expression of $\pi(n^2)$ in terms of $\sum_{3 \leq p \leq n} \frac{1}{p}$ and a weaker version of $\omega(n)$.

We prove an intrinsic equivalence between strong hypercontractivity and a strong logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the cone of logarithmically subharmonic functions. We introduce a new large class of measures, Euclidean regular and…

There exists a positive function $\psi(t)${on}$t\geq0${, with fast decay at infinity, such that for every measurable set}$\Omega${in the Euclidean space and}$R>0${, there exist entire functions}$A(x) ${and}$B(x) ${of exponential type}$R${,…

We establish some operator versions of Bellman's inequality. In particular, we prove that if $\Phi: \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H}) \to \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{K})$ is a unital positive linear map, $A,B \in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ are contractions,…

In this paper we use topological techniques to construct generalized trace and modified dimension functions on ideals in certain ribbon categories. Examples of such ribbon categories naturally arise in representation theory where the usual…
