We establish sharp well-posedness and approximation estimates for variational saddle point systems at the continuous level. The main results of this note have been known to be true only in the finite dimensional case. Known spectral results…
We study the problem of recovering an unknown compactly-supported multivariate function from samples of its Fourier transform that are acquired nonuniformly, i.e. not necessarily on a uniform Cartesian grid. Reconstruction problems of this…
The purpose of this paper is to exhibit a quantitative stability result for the class of M\"obius transformations of $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ when $n\geq 3$. The main estimate is of local nature and asserts that for a Lipschitz map that is…
In this paper, we prove the second-order Sobolev inequalities on Cayley graphs of groups of polynomial growth. We use the discrete Concentration-Compactness principle to prove the existence of extremal functions for best constants in…
We study Boolean functions of an arbitrary number of input variables that can be realized by simple iterative constructions based on constant-size primitives. This restricted type of construction needs little global coordination or control…
The purpose of this paper is to investigate canonical metrics on a semi-stable vector bundle E over a compact Kahler manifold X. It is shown that, if E is semi-stable, then Donaldson's functional is bounded from below. This implies that E…
Given a finitely generated amenable group we consider ergodic random Schr\"odinger operators on a Cayley graph with random potentials and random boundary conditions. We show that the normalised eigenvalue counting functions of finite volume…
We consider the Tur\'an-type problem of bounding the size of a set $M \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^n$ that does not contain a linear copy of a given fixed set $N \subseteq \mathbb{F}_2^k$, where $n$ is large compared to $k$. An Erd\H{o}s-Stone…
The entropy/influence conjecture, raised by Friedgut and Kalai in 1996, seeks to relate two different measures of concentration of the Fourier coefficients of a Boolean function. Roughly saying, it claims that if the Fourier spectrum is…
This article is concerned with the well-posedness of the incompressible Euler equations describing a stably stratified ocean, reformulated in isopycnal coordinates. Our motivation for using this reformulation is twofold: first, its quasi-2D…
Structure constants of the $su(N)$ ($N$ odd) Lie algebras converge when N goes to infinity to the structure constants of the Lie algebra {\it sdiff}$(T^2)$ of the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of a 2D torus. Thus Zeitlin and…
We prove a converse Lyapunov theorem for almost sure stabilizability and almost sure asymptotic stabilizability of controlled diffusions: given a stochastic system a.s. stochastic open loop stabilizable at the origin, we construct a lower…
We introduce a new notion of influence for symmetric convex sets over Gaussian space, which we term "convex influence". We show that this new notion of influence shares many of the familiar properties of influences of variables for monotone…
We prove characterizations of input-to-state stability (ISS) for a large class of infinite-dimensional control systems, including some classes of evolution equations over Banach spaces, time-delay systems, ordinary differential equations…
We prove a local contraction property for holomorphic functions that are nearly constant, relating weighted Bergman spaces $A^p_\alpha(\B_n)$ and $A^q_\beta(\B_n)$. Our approach converts geometric information on weighted superlevel sets…
Approximate controllability of the Euler equations is investigated by means of a finite set of actuators. It is proven that approximate controllability holds if we can find a saturating subset of actuators. The notion of saturating set is…
In this paper, we discuss some limitations of the modified equations approach as a tool for stability analysis for a class of explicit linear schemes to scalar partial derivative equations. We show that the infinite series obtained by…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a Borel measure to be a Lee-Yang one which means that its Fourier transform possesses only real zeros. Equivalently, we answer a question of P\'olya who asked for a characterisation of…
In our recent work we found a surprising breakdown of symmetry conservation: using standard numerical discretization with very high precision the computed numerical solutions corresponding to very nice initial data may converge to…
We prove that any stable method for resolving the Gibbs phenomenon - that is, recovering high-order accuracy from the first $m$ Fourier coefficients of an analytic and nonperiodic function - can converge at best root-exponentially fast in…
