This is an overview of a few possibilities that are open by model theory in applied mathematics. Most attention is paid to the present state and frontiers of the Cauchy method of majorants, approximation of operator equations with…
We define the Heisenberg Kakeya maximal functions $M_{\delta}f$, $0<\delta<1$, by averaging over $\delta$-neighborhoods of horizontal unit line segments in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ equipped with the Kor\'{a}nyi distance…
Consider the discrete maximal function acting on finitely supported functions on the integers, \[ \mathcal{C}_\Lambda f(n) := \sup_{\lambda \in \Lambda} | \sum_{p \in \pm \mathbb{P}} f(n-p) \log |p| \frac{e^{2\pi i \lambda p}}{p} |,\] where…
Energy bounds which are uniform in the background metric are obtained from upper bounds for entropy-like quantities. The argument is based on auxiliary Monge-Amp\`ere equations involving sublevel sets, and bypasses the…
Based on the complete-lattice approach, a new Lagrangian duality theory for set-valued optimization problems is presented. In contrast to previous approaches, set-valued versions for the known scalar formulas involving infimum and supremum…
Soare proved that the maximal sets form an orbit in $\mathcal{E}$. We consider here $\mathcal{D}$-maximal sets, generalizations of maximal sets introduced by Herrmann and Kummer. Some orbits of $\mathcal{D}$-maximal sets are well…
We derive a lower and an upper bound for the rank of the finite part of operator $K$-theory groups of maximal and reduced $C^*$-algebras of finitely generated groups. The lower bound is based on the amount of polynomially growing conjugacy…
Let omega be the first infinite ordinal (or the set of all natural numbers) with the usual order <. In section 1 we show that, assuming the consistency of a supercompact cardinal, there may exist an ultrapower of omega, whose cardinality is…
Maximally monotone operators play a key role in modern optimization and variational analysis. Two useful subclasses are rectangular (also known as star monotone) and paramonotone operators, which were introduced by Brezis and Haraux, and by…
We investigate the connection between maximal directional derivatives and differentiability for Lipschitz functions defined on Laakso space. We show that maximality of a directional derivative for a Lipschitz function implies…
We observe that classical arguments of Ricci--Stein can be used to prove $L^p$ bounds for maximal functions associated to lacunary dilates of a fixed measure in the setting of homogenous groups. This recovers some recent results on averages…
In recent articles it was proved that when $\mu$ is a finite, radial measure in $\real^n$ with a bounded, radially decreasing density, the $L^p(\mu)$ norm of the associated maximal operator $M_\mu$ grows to infinity with the dimension for a…
An increasing sequence $(a_n)$ of positive integers which satisfies $\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}>1+\eta$ for some positive $\eta$ is called a lacunary sequence. It has been known for over twenty years that every lacunary sequence is strong sweeping…
We study the concept of universal sets from the additive--combinatorial point of view. Among other results we obtain some applications of this type of uniformity to sets avoiding solutions to linear equations, and get an optimal upper bound…
Results of Sierpinski and others have shown that certain finite-dimensional product sets can be written as unions of subsets, each of which is "narrow" in a corresponding direction; that is, each line in that direction intersects the subset…
For a pair of bounded linear Hilbert space operators $A$ and $B$ one considers the Lebesgue type decompositions of $B$ with respect to $A$ into an almost dominated part and a singular part, analogous to the Lebesgue decomposition for a pair…
We prove Kakeya-type estimates for regulus strips. As a result, we obtain another epsilon improvement over the Kakeya conjecture in $\mathbb{R}^3$, by showing that the regulus strips in the ${\rm SL}_2$ example are essentially disjoint. We…
Using the definition of uniformly perfect sets in terms of convergent sequences, we apply lower bounds for the Hausdorff content of a uniformly perfect subset $E$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ to prove new explicit lower bounds for the Hausdorff…
In this paper we look for the existence of large linear and algebraic structures of sequences of measurable functions with different modes of convergence. Concretely, the algebraic size of the family of sequences that are convergent in…
We present a review of methods for optimal experimental design (OED) for Bayesian inverse problems governed by partial differential equations with infinite-dimensional parameters. The focus is on problems where one seeks to optimize the…
