In this talk, I will discuss the use of harmonic functions to study the geometry and topology of complete manifolds. In my previous joint work with Luen-fai Tam, we discovered that the number of infinities of a complete manifold can be…

We study pointwise convergence of the fractional Schr\"odinger means along sequences $t_n$ which converge to zero. Our main result is that bounds on the maximal function $\sup_{n} |e^{it_n(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}} f| $ can be deduced from those…

Let $f: B^n \rightarrow {\mathbb R}$ be a $d+1$ times continuously differentiable function on the unit ball $B^n$, with $\max_{z\in B^n} \|f(z)\|=1$. A well-known fact is that if $f$ vanishes on a set $Z\subset B^n$ with a non-empty…

We study a family of maximal operators that provides a continuous link connecting the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function to the spherical maximal function. Our theorems are proved in the multilinear setting but may contain new results even…

Using a modification of a generalized Takagi-van der Waerden function on a metric space we prove that for any closed subset of a metric space without isolated points there exists a continuous function such that its big and local Lipschitz…

For a locally Lipschitz continuous function $f:X\to\mathbb{R}$ the generalized gradient $\partial f(x)$ of Clarke is used to develop some (set-valued) gradient on a set $A\subset X$. Existence, uniqueness and some approximation are…

Let $f$ be a Lipschitz map from a subset $A$ of a stratified group to a Banach homogeneous group. We show that directional derivatives of $f$ act as homogeneous homomorphisms at density points of $A$ outside a $\sigma$-porous set. At…

We consider the behaviour of holomorphic functions on a bounded open subset of the plane, satisfying a Lipschitz condition with exponent $\alpha$, with $0<\alpha<1$, in the vicinity of an exceptional boundary point where all such functions…

This article shows a very elementary and straightforward proof of the Implicit Function Theorem for differentiable maps $F(x,y)$ defined on a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. There are no hypothesis on the continuity of the partial…

We investigate the relationship between measurable differentiable structures on doubling metric measure spaces and derivations. We prove: [1] a decomposition theorem for the module of derivations into free modules; [2] the existence of a…

We prove a sharp higher differentiability result for local minimizers of functionals of the form $$\mathcal{F}\left(w,\Omega\right)=\int_{\Omega}\left[ F\left(x,Dw(x)\right)-f(x)\cdot w(x)\right]dx$$ with non-autonomous integrand $F(x,\xi)$…

In this paper we develop general formulas for the subdifferential of the pointwise supremum of convex functions, which cover and unify both the compact continuous and the non-compact non-continuous settings. From the non-continuous to the…

We investigate the differentiability properties of real-valued quasiconvex functions f defined on a separable Banach space X. Continuity is only assumed to hold at the points of a dense subset. If so, this subset is automatically residual.…

Extending the notion of bounded variation, a function $u \in L_c^1(\mathbb R^n)$ is of bounded fractional variation with respect to some exponent $\alpha$ if there is a finite constant $C \geq 0$ such that the estimate \[ \biggl|\int u(x)…

We investigate several possibilities of obtaining a {\L}ojasiewicz inequality for definable multifunctions and give some examples of applications thereof. In particular, we prove that the Hausdorff distance and its extension to closed sets…

A k-dissimilarity map on a finite set X is a function D : X \choose k \rightarrow R assigning a real value to each subset of X with cardinality k, k \geq 2. Such functions, also sometimes known as k-way dissimilarities, k-way distances, or…

We consider the averages of a function $ f$ on $ \mathbb R ^{n}$ over spheres of radius $ 0< r< \infty $ given by $ A_{r} f (x) = \int_{\mathbb S ^{n-1}} f (x-r y) \; d \sigma (y)$, where $ \sigma $ is the normalized rotation invariant…

We consider maps between commutative groups and their functional degrees. These degrees are defined based on a simple idea -- the functional degree should decrease if a discrete derivative is taken. We show that the maps of finite…

We improve the rate function of McDiarmid's inequality for Hamming distance. In particular, applying our result to the separately Lipschitz functions of independent random variables, we also refine the convergence rate function of…

We investigate some connectedness properties of the set of points K(f) where the iterates of an entire function f are bounded. In particular, we describe a class of transcendental entire functions for which an analogue of the…
