We study the maximum Hamming distance (or rather, the complementary notion of "minimum approximability") of a general function on a finite group $G$ to either of the sets $\operatorname{End}(G)$ and $\operatorname{Aff}(G)$, of group…

In this note, we study the approximation of singular plurifinely plurisubharmonic function $u$ defined on a plurifinely domain $\Omega$. Under some conditions, we prove that $u$ can be approximated by an increasing sequence of…

Efroymson's approximation theorem asserts that if $f$ is a $\mathcal{C}^0$ semialgebraic mapping on a $\mathcal{C}^\infty$ semialgebraic submanifold $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and if $\varepsilon:M\to \mathbb{R}$ is a positive continuous…

In this work we approach the problem of approximating uniformly continuous semialgebraic maps $f:S\to T$ from a compact semialgebraic set $S$ to an arbitrary semialgebraic set $T$ by semialgebraic maps $g:S\to T$ that are differentiable of…

Approximate algebraic structures play a defining role in arithmetic combinatorics and have found remarkable applications to basic questions in number theory and pseudorandomness. Here we study approximate representations of finite groups:…

We consider convex sets and functions over idempotent semifields, like the max-plus semifield. We show that if $K$ is a conditionally complete idempotent semifield, with completion $\bar{K}$, a convex function $K^n\to\bar{K}$ which is lower…

We discuss the concept of inner function in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces with an orthogonal basis of monomials and examine connections between inner functions and optimal polynomial approximants to $1/f$, where $f$ is a function in the…

If f is a smooth function on a Hodge manifold, we construct a canonical sequence of real algebraic functions that converge to f in the smooth topology. The definition of of the approximants is inspired by Berezin-Toeplitz quantization. The…

A toroidal affine Nash group is the affine Nash group analogue of an anti-affine algebraic group. In this note, we prove analogues of Rosenlicht's structure and decomposition theorems: (1) Every affine Nash group $G$ has a smallest normal…

We consider the approximation properties of finite element spaces on quadrilateral meshes. The finite element spaces are constructed starting with a given finite dimensional space of functions on a square reference element, which is then…

The derivatives of Nash functions are Nash functions which are derived algebraically from their minimal polynomial equations. In this paper we show that, for any non-Nash analytic function, it is impossible to derive its derivatives…

Let $\Delta_m$ be the standard $m$-dimensional simplex of non-negative $m+1$ tuples that sum to unity and let $S$ be a nonempty subset of $\Delta_m$. A real valued function $h$ defined on a convex subset of a real vector space is $S$-almost…

Let $\mathbb{Q}$ be the field of rational numbers and let $X$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We say that $X$ is $\mathbb{Q}$-algebraic if it is the common zero set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of a family of polynomials in…

We provide a comprehensive study of interrelations between different measures of smoothness of functions on various domains and smoothness properties of approximation processes. Two general approaches to this problem have been developed:…

A theorem of Functorial Affinization of Nash's manifold is proven here giving necessary and sufficient conditions to lift a holomorphic arc to the smooth locus of the Nash manifold. In addition a theorem about valuations is proven.

For any complex scheme X or any dg category, there is an associated K-theory presheaf on the category of complex affine schemes. We study real smooth functions on this presheaf, defined by Kan extension, and show that they are closely…
