Let $f_r(x)=\log(1+rx)/\log(1+x)$ for $x>0$. We prove that $f_r$ is a complete Bernstein function for $0\le r\le 1$ and a Stieltjes function for $1\le r$. This answers a conjecture of David Bradley that $f_r$ is a Bernstein function when…

We give an elementary symmetric function expansion for $M\Delta_{m_\gamma e_1}\Pi e_\lambda^{\ast}$ and $M\Delta_{m_\gamma e_1}\Pi s_\lambda^{\ast}$ when $t=1$ in terms of what we call $\gamma$-parking functions and lattice $\gamma$-parking…

Carbery proved that if $u:\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a positive, strictly convex function satisfying $\det D^2u \geq 1$, then we have the estimate $$ \left| \left\{x \in \mathbb{R}^n: u(x) \leq s \right\} \right| \lesssim_n…

In this work, we propose the concept of Construction Defining Functionality (CDF), which characterizes functions by the structural spaces they generate through iteration,recursion, and logical application. By viewing functions as generators…

Consider the vector space $\mathbb{K}\mathcal{P}$ spanned by parking functions. By representing parking functions as labeled digraphs, Hivert, Novelli and Thibon constructed a cocommutative Hopf algebra PQSym$^{*}$ on…

Results on the upper and lower semicontinuity of functionals defined on spaces of convex and more general functions are established. In particular, the following result is obtained. Let $\phi(v; \cdot)$ be the density of the absolutely…

A recent paper by the first and third authors together with Sabourin raised the question of what the possible Hilbert functions are for fat point subschemes of the form $2p_1+...+2p_r$, for all possible choices of $r$ distinct points in the…

Level 3+ automated driving implies highest safety demands for the entire vehicle automation functionality. For the part of trajectory tracking, functional redundancies among all available actuators provide an opportunity to reduce safety…

Consider the following dynamic factor model: $\mathbf{R}_t=\sum_{i=0}^q \mathbf{\Lambda}_i \mathbf{f}_{t-i}+\mathbf{e}_t,t=1,...,T$, where $\mathbf{\Lambda}_i$ is an $n\times k$ loading matrix of full rank, $\{\mathbf{f}_t\}$ are i.i.d.…

One matrix structure in the area of monotone Boolean functions is defined here. Some of its combinatorial, algebraic and algorithmic properties are derived. On the base of these properties, three algorithms are built. First of them…

We prove that every matrix-valued rational function $F$, which is regular on the closure of a bounded domain $\mathcal{D}_\mathbf{P}$ in $\mathbb{C}^d$ and which has the associated Agler norm strictly less than 1, admits a…

Given integers s,t, define a function phi_{s,t} on the space of all formal series expansions by phi_{s,t} (sum a_n x^n) = sum a_{sn+t} x^n. For each function phi_{s,t}, we determine the collection of all rational functions whose Taylor…

In this paper we consider the problems of supervised classification and regression in the case where attributes and labels are functions: a data is represented by a set of functions, and the label is also a function. We focus on the use of…

We write the relations that characterize the simpliest timed automaton, the inertial delay buffer, in two versions: the non-deterministic and the deterministic one, by making use of the derivatives of the R->{0,1} functions.

Any function can be constructed using a hierarchy of simpler functions through compositions. Such a hierarchy can be characterized by a binary rooted tree. Each node of this tree is associated with a function which takes as inputs two…

An m-ballot path of size n is a path on the square grid consisting of north and east unit steps, starting at (0,0), ending at (mn,n), and never going below the line {x=my. The set of these paths can be equipped with a lattice structure,…

We consider the Schr{\"o}dinger operator --$\Delta$ + V on the Euclidean space with potential in the Lorentz space L^{n/2,1} and we find necessary and sufficient conditions for zero to be a resonance or an eigenvalue. We consider functions…

Suppose that $A$ is a $k \times d$ matrix of integers and write $\mathfrak{R}_A:\mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}\cup \{ \infty\}$ for the function taking $r$ to the largest $N$ such that there is an $r$-colouring $\mathcal{C}$ of $[N]$…

We study $\mathbb{R}_{\textrm{an},\exp}$-definable functions $f:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ that take integer values at all sufficiently large positive integers. If $|f(x)|= O\big(2^{(1+10^{-5})x}\big)$, then we find polynomials $P_1, P_2$…
