We study the minimisation of a cost functional which measures the misfit on the boundary of a domain between a component of the solution to a certain parametric elliptic PDE system and a prediction of the values of this solution. We pose…

A threefold extremal transition $Y \searrow X$ consists of a crepant extremal contraction $\phi \colon Y \to \bar Y$ with curve class $\ell \in \operatorname{NE}(Y)$, followed by a smoothing $\bar Y\rightsquigarrow X$. We consider the Type…

This paper aims at proving the local boundedness and continuity of solutions of the heat equation in the context of Dirichlet spaces under some rather weak additional assumptions. We consider symmetric local regular Dirichlet forms which…

Extremal functions for the $n$th coefficient in the Krzy\.z conjecture are atomic singular inner functions with at most $n$ atoms. This paper gives a lower bound on the number of atoms $N$ of the form $N\geq cn$, marking progress toward…

We determine extremal entire functions for the problem of majorizing, minorizing, and approximating the Gaussian function $e^{-\pi\lambda x^2}$ by entire functions of exponential type. This leads to the solution of analogous extremal…

In the present paper, we characterize the Fredholmness of Toeplitz pairs on Hardy space over the bidisk with the bounded holomorphic symbols, and hence we obtain the index formula for such Toeplitz pairs. The key to obtain the Fredholmness…

In a series of articles, Ryan Hynd and Francis Seuffert have studied extremal functions for the Morrey inequality. Building upon their work, we study the extremals of a Morrey-type inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces. We verify a few…

An equivalent formulation of the von Neumann inequality states that the backward shift $S^*$ on $\ell_{2}$ is extremal, in the sense that if $T$ is a Hilbert space contraction, then $\|p(T)\| \leq \|p(S^*)\|$ for each polynomial $p$. We…

The famous T. Suffridge polynomials have many extremal properties: the maximality of coefficients when the leading coefficient is maximal; the zeros of the derivative are located on the unit circle; the maximum radius of stretching the unit…

A functional distance ${\mathbb H}$, based on the Hausdorff metric between the function hypographs, is proposed for the space ${\mathcal E}$ of non-negative real upper semicontinuous functions on a compact interval. The main goal of the…

Let $H(\mathbb{D})$ be the linear space of all analytic functions on the open unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ and $H^p(\mathbb{D})$ the Hardy space on $\mathbb{D}$. The characterization of complex linear isometries on $\mathcal{S}^p=\{f\in…

We consider the problem of approximation of matrix functions of class $L^p$ on the unit circle by matrix functions analytic in the unit disk in the norm of $L^p$, $2\le p<\be$. For an $m\times n$ matrix function $\Phi$ in $L^p$, we consider…
