The piecewise-concave function may be used to approximate a wide range of other functions to arbitrary precision over a bounded set. In this short paper, this property is proven for three function classes: (a) the multivariate twice…

We establish, for $1 < p < \infty$, higher order $\mathcal{S}^p$-differentiability results of the function $\varphi : t\in \mathbb{R} \mapsto f(A+tK) - f(A)$ for selfadjoint operators $A$ and $K$ on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$…

Let f be a transcendental entire function in the Eremenko-Lyubich class B. We give a lower bound for the Hausdorff dimension of the Julia set of f that depends on the growth of f. This estimate is best possible and is obtained by proving a…

We study the boundedness of commutators of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function and the sharp maximal function on weighted Morrey spaces when the symbols of the commutators belong to weighted Lipschitz spaces. Some new characterizations…

The principle of smooth fit is probably the most used tool to find solutions to optimal stopping problems of one-dimensional diffusions. It is important, e.g., in financial mathematical applications to understand in which kind of models and…

This is the first in a series of articles about recovering the full algebraic structure of a boundary conformal field theory (CFT) from the scaling limit of the critical Ising model in slit-strip geometry. Here, we introduce spaces of…

For a fixed polynomial $\Delta$, we study the number of polynomials $f$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb F_q$ such that $f$ and $f+\Delta$ are both irreducible, an $\mathbb F_q[T]$-analogue of the twin primes problem. In the large-$q$ limit, we…

Let $A$ be a selfadjoint operator in a separable Hilbert space, $K$ a selfadjoint Hilbert-Schmidt operator, and $f\in C^n(\mathbb{R})$. We establish that $\varphi(t)=f(A+tK)-f(A)$ is $n$-times continuously differentiable on $\mathbb{R}$ in…

A remarkable theorem of Besicovitch is that an integrable function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$ is strongly differentiable if and only if its associated strong maximal function $M_S f$ is finite a.e. We provide an analogue of Besicovitch's result…

Motivated by applications in model-free finance and quantitative risk management, we consider Fr\'echet classes of multivariate distribution functions where additional information on the joint distribution is assumed, while uncertainty in…

This is the English translation of my old paper 'Definici\'on y estudio de una funci\'on indefinidamente diferenciable de soporte compacto', Rev. Real Acad. Ciencias 76 (1982) 21-38. In it a function (essentially Fabius function) is defined…

We introduce the discrete frequency function as a possible new approach to understanding the discrete Hardy-Littlewood maximal function. Considering that the discrete Hardy-Littlewood maximal function is given at each integer by the…

We introduce the non-commutative $f$-divergence functional $\Theta(\widetilde{A},\widetilde{B}):=\int_TB_t^{\frac{1}{2}}f\left(B_t^{-\frac{1}{2}} A_tB_t^{-\frac{1}{2}}\right)B_t^{\frac{1}{2}}d\mu(t)$ for an operator convex function $f$,…

We show that the best constants appearing in the weak type (1,1) inequalities satisfied by the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function associated to some finite radial measures, such as the standard gaussian measure, grow exponentially…

The solutions of a kind of second-order homogeneous partial differential equation are called (real kernel) alpha-harmonic functions. The alpha-harmonic functions and their first-order partial derivative functions on unit disk are estimated…

In this paper, on the basis of a specific question raised in [6], we further continue our investigations on the uniqueness of a meromorphic function with its higher derivatives sharing two sets and answer the question affirmatively.…

For a function field $K$ and fixed polynomial $F\in K[x]$ and varying $f\in F$ (under certain restrictions) we give a lower bound for the degree of the greatest prime divisor of $F(f)$ in terms of the height of $f$, establishing a strong…

Let f: X -> Y be a separated morphism of schemes of finite type over a finite field of characteristic p, let Lambda be an artinian local Z_p-algebra with finite residue field, let m be the maximal ideal of Lambda, and let L^\bullet be a…

We introduce and study the median maximal function \mathcal{M} f, defined in the same manner as the classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal function, only replacing integral averages of f by medians throughout the definition. This change has a…

This work concerns the study of the subdifferential of the integral functional $$ E_f(x)=\int_{T} f(t,x)d\mu(t), $$ where $f$ is a (not necessarily convex) normal integrand, $({T},\mathcal{A},\mu)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure space, while…
