We extend P\'olya's indicator diagram theory to encompass entire functions of order at most 1, allowing functions of maximal type. To do so, we introduce an extension of the complex plane in which indicator diagrams may be unbounded or even…
Motivated by the Lyapunov convexity theorem in infinite dimensions, we extend the convexity of the integral of a decomposable set to separable Banach spaces under the strengthened notion of nonatomicity of measure spaces, called…
In this manuscript, we consider finitely many maps, all of which are defined on a smooth compact measure space, with at least one map in the collection having degree strictly bigger than 1. Working with random dynamics generated by this…
This paper concerns optimal control problems for a class of sweeping processes governed by discontinuous unbounded differential inclusions that are described via normal cone mappings to controlled moving sets. Largely motivated by…
The study of minimal complements in a group or a semigroup was initiated by Nathanson. The notion of minimal complements and being a minimal complement leads to the notion of co-minimal pairs which was considered in a prior work of the…
We consider unions of $SL(2)$ lines in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. These are lines of the form $$L = (a,b,0) + \mathrm{span}(c,d,1),$$ where $ad - bc = 1$. We show that if $\mathcal{L}$ is a Kakeya set of $SL(2)$ lines, then the union $\cup…
In this note we describe some recent advances in the area of maximal function inequalities. We also study the behaviour of the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator associated to certain families of doubling, radial decreasing…
The concept of quantum-mechanical nematic order, which is important in systems such as superconductors, is based on an analogy to classical liquid crystals, where order parameters are obtained through orientational expansions. We generalize…
This work is a study of polynomial compositions having a fixed number of terms. We outline a recursive method to describe these characterizations, give some particular results and discuss the general case. In the final sections, some…
We derive Maximal Kakeya estimates for functions over $\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z}$ proving the Maximal Kakeya conjecture for $\mathbb{Z}/N\mathbb{Z}$ for general $N$ as stated by Hickman and Wright [HW18]. The proof involves using polynomial…
We introduce three measures of complexity for families of sets. Each of the three measures, that we call dimensions, is defined in terms of the minimal number of convex subfamilies that are needed for covering the given family: for upper…
It was recently shown that arbitrary first-order models canonically extend to models (of the same language) consisting of ultrafilters. The main precursor of this construction was the extension of semigroups to semigroups of ultrafilters, a…
Given an infinite set \Lambda of characters on a compact abelian group we show that \Lambda is a \Lambda(p)-set for all p>2 if and only if the limit order of the ideal of all \Lambda-summing operators coincides with that of the ideal of all…
The Kakeya conjecture is generally formulated as one the following statements: every compact/Borel/arbitrary subset of ${\mathbb R}^n$ that contains a (unit) line segment in every direction has Hausdorff dimension $n$; or, sometimes, that…
We consider (bounded) Besicovitch sets in the Heisenberg group and prove that $L^p$ estimates for the Kakeya maximal function imply lower bounds for their Heisenberg Hausdorff dimension.
Direction sets, recently introduced by Leonetti and Sanna, are generalization of ratio sets of subsets of positive integers. In this article, we generalize the notion of direction sets and define {\it $k$-generalized direction sets} and…
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…
We generalize the proof of Karamata's Theorem by the method of approximation by polynomials to the operator case. As a consequence, we offer a simple proof of \emph{uniform dual ergodicity} for a very large class of dynamical systems with…
Let $U$ be a point set in the $n$-dimensional affine space ${\rm AG}(n,q)$ over the finite field of $q$ elements and $0\leq k\leq n-2$. In this paper we extend the definition of directions determined by $U$: a $k$-dimensional subspace $S_k$…
This paper studies a new maximal operator introduced by Hyt\"onen, McIntosh and Portal in 2008 for functions taking values in a Banach space. The L^p-boundedness of this operator depends on the range space; certain requirements on type and…
