Approximation theory has long been concerned with the development of positive linear operators that effectively approximate classes of functions. Among the most well-known results in this area are Korovkin-type approximation theorems, which…
We study a vectorial $L^\infty$-variational problem of second order, where the supremal functional depends on the vector function $u$ through a linear elliptic operator in divergence form. We prove existence and uniqueness of the minimiser…
In this paper we obtain new estimates of the Hadamard fractional derivatives of a function at its extreme points. The extremum principle is then applied to show that the initial-boundary-value problem for linear and nonlinear…
In this paper, we give a sharp lower bound for the minimum deviation of the Chebyshev polynomial on a compact subset of the real line in terms of the corresponding logarithmic capacity. Especially if the set is the union of several real…
We study the generalized existence of extremizers for the sharp $p$-Sobolev inequality on noncompact Riemannian manifolds in connection with nonnegative curvature and Euclidean volume growth assumptions. Assuming a nonnegative Ricci…
Near every point of a real-analytic set in $\mathbb R^n$, we make use of Hironaka's resolution of singularity theorem to construct a family of continuous functions in $W^{1, 1}_{loc}$ such that their weak derivatives have (removable)…
It is known that a subharmonic function of finite order $\rho$ can be approximated by the logarithm of the modulus of an entire function at the point $z$ outside an exceptional set up to $C\log|z|$. In this article we prove that if such an…
We give a direct derivation of the distribution of the maximum and the location of the maximum of one-sided and two-sided Brownian motion with a negative parabolic drift. The argument uses a relation between integrals of special functions,…
We discuss two general aspects of the theory of cardinal characteristics of the continuum, especially of proofs of inequalities between such characteristics. The first aspect is to express the essential content of these proofs in a way that…
We study connections between the $W^1_p$-differentiability and the $L_p$-differentiability of Sobolev functions. We prove that, $W^1_p$-differentiability implies the $L_p$-differentiability, but the opposite implication is not valid. The…
We prove the existence of vectorial Absolute Minimisers in the sense of Aronsson to the supremal functional $E_\infty(u,\Omega') = \|\mathscr{L}(\cdot,u,D u)\|_{L^\infty(\Omega')}$, $\Omega'\Subset \Omega$, applied to $W^{1,\infty}$ maps…
We consider three classes of linear differential equations on distribution functions, with a fractional order $\alpha\in [0,1].$ The integer case $\alpha =1$ corresponds to the three classical extreme families. In general, we show that…
In terms of the best approximations of functions and generalized moduli of smoothness, direct and inverse approximation theorems are proved for Besicovitch almost periodic functions whose Fourier exponent sequences have a single limit point…
The optimal $L^p \to L^q$ mapping properties for the (local) helical maximal function are obtained, except for endpoints. The proof relies on tools from multilinear harmonic analysis and, in particular, a localised version of the…
We study the simplifications occurring in any likelihood function in the presence of a large number of small systematic uncertainties. We find that the marginalisation of these uncertainties can be done analytically by means of second-order…
We study some approximation problems on a strict subset of the circle by analytic functions of the Hardy space H2 of the unit disk (in C), whose modulus satisfy a pointwise constraint on the complentary part of the circle. Existence and…
An old open problem in number theory is whether Chebotarev density theorem holds in short intervals. More precisely, given a Galois extension $E$ of $\mathbb{Q}$ with Galois group $G$, a conjugacy class $C$ in $G$ and an $1\geq…
In this paper we present a new proof of the sufficiency theorem for strong local minimizers concerning $C^1$-extremals at which the second variation is strictly positive. The results are presented in the quasiconvex setting, in accordance…
This paper is concerned at the minimization fundamental gap problem for a class of two-dimensional degenerate sub-elliptic operators. We establish existence results for weak solutions, Sobolev embedding theorem and spectral theory of…
We prove a conjecture of Kleinbock which gives a clear-cut classification of all extremal affine subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also give an essentially complete classification of all Khintchine type affine subspaces, except for some…
