The classical uniformization theorem states that any simply connected Riemann surface is conformally equivalent to the disk, the plane, or the sphere, each equipped with a standard conformal structure. We give a similar uniformization for…

We determine the most general form of a smooth function on Young diagrams, that is, a polynomial in the interlacing or multirectangular coordinates whose value depends only on the shape of the diagram. We prove that the algebra of such…

Conic quasi-linear maps are nonlinear operators from $C_0(X)$ to a normed linear space $E$ which preserve nonnegative linear combinations on positive cones generated by single functions; quasi-linear maps are linear on singly generated…
