Let $(X,\mathcal{B}, \mu, T)$ be an ergodic dynamical system on a non-atomic finite measure space. We assume without loss of generality that $\mu(X)=1.$ Consider the maximal function $\dis R^*:(f, g) \in L^p\times L^q \to R^*(f, g)(x) =…

We use the weighted version of the arithmetic-mean-geometric-mean inequality to motivate new results about Zaremba's function, $z(n) = \sum_{d|n} \frac{\log d}{d}$. We investigate record-setting values for $z(n)$ and the related function…

For a Banach space $B$ of functions which satisfies for some $m>0$ $$ \max(\|F+G\|_B,\|F-G\|_B) \ge (\|F\|^s_B + m\|G\|^s_B)^{1/s}, \forall F,G\in B \ (*) $$ a significant improvement for lower estimates of the moduli of smoothness…

Lebesgue space bounds $L^{p_1}({\mathbb R}^1) \times L^{p_2}(^1) \to L^q({\mathbb R}^1)$ are established for certain maximal bilinear operators. The proof combines a trilinear smoothing inequality with Calder\'on-Zygmund theory. A reference…

Let $A_{p,r}^m(n)$ be the best constant that fulfills the following inequality: for every $m$-homogeneous polynomial $P(z) = \sum_{|\alpha|=m} a_{\alpha} z^{\alpha}$ in $n$ complex variables, $$\big( \sum_{|\alpha|=m} |a_{\alpha}|^{r}…

We prove that every smooth closed manifold admits a smooth real-valued function with only two critical values. We call a function of this type a \emph{Reeb function}. We prove that for a Reeb function we can prescribe the set of minima (or…

Let $E$ be a Jordan rectifiable curve in the complex plane and let $G$ be the bounded component of $\mathbb{C}\backslash E$. Now let $n\in \mathbb{N}$, and let $m_{n,E}$ denote the extremal constants defined by \begin{equation*}m_{n,E}=\inf…

Given a monotone convex function on the space of essentially bounded random variables with the Lebesgue property (order continuity), we consider its extension preserving the Lebesgue property to as big solid vector space of random variables…

We prove a Berry-Esseen type inequality for approximating expectations of sufficiently smooth functions $f$, like $f=|\cdot|^3$, with respect to standardized convolutions of laws $P_1,\ldots, P_n$ on the real line by corresponding…

The maximum of the absolute value of a real homogeneous polynomial of degree $d\ge 3$ on the unit sphere corresponds to the spectral norm of the induced real $d$-symmetric tensor $\mathcal{S}$. We give two sequences of upper bounds on the…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a complete intersection of dimension $d \geq 1$ and codimension $c \geq 1$. Let $I$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal and let $M$ be a finitely generated $A$-module. For $i \geq 1$ let $\psi_i^I(M)$ be the degree…

In this paper we show the stability of the ball as maximizer of the Riesz potential among sets of given volume. The stability is proved with sharp exponent $1/2$, and is valid for any dimension $N\geq 2$ and any power $1<\alpha<N$.

A new modulus of smoothness and its equivalent $K$-function are defined on the conic domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and used to characterize the weighted best approximation by polynomials. Both direct and weak inverse theorems of the…

We prove that the roots of a smooth monic polynomial with complex-valued coefficients defined on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb R^m$ admit a parameterization by functions of bounded variation uniformly with respect to the…

We consider the problem of minimizing a continuous function f over a compact set K. We analyze a hierarchy of upper bounds proposed by Lasserre in [SIAM J. Optim. 21(3) (2011), pp. 864--885], obtained by searching for an optimal probability…

Let $x \in \mathbb{R}$ be arbitrary and consider the `greedy' approximation of $x$ by signed harmonic sums: given $a_n = \sum_{k \leq n} \varepsilon_k/k$ with $\varepsilon_k \in \left\{-1,1\right\}$, we set $\varepsilon_{n+1} = 1$ if $a_n…

We address the problem of the best uniform approximation by linear combinations of a finite system of functions. If the system is Chebyshev and the problem is unconstrained, then the classical Remez algorithm provides a fast and precise…

To minimize or upper-bound the value of a function "robustly", we might instead minimize or upper-bound the "epsilon-robust regularization", defined as the map from a point to the maximum value of the function within an epsilon-radius. This…

Soft extrapolation refers to the problem of recovering a function from its samples, multiplied by a fast-decaying window and perturbed by an additive noise, over an interval which is potentially larger than the essential support of the…
