Let $C$ be a compact convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $f:C\to\mathbb{R}$ be a convex function, and $m\in\{1, 2, ..., \infty\}$. Assume that, along with $f$, we are given a family of polynomials satisfying Whitney's extension condition for…
We consider the class of smooth convex functions defined over an open convex set. We show that this class is essentially different than the class of smooth convex functions defined over the entire linear space by exhibiting a function that…
A general class of singular real hypersurfaces, called subanalytic, is defined. For a subanalytic hypersurface M in C^n, Cauchy-Riemann (or simply CR) functions on M are defined, and certain properties of CR functions discussed. In…
We prove a monomialization theorem for mappings in general classes of infinitely differentiable functions that are called quasianalytic. Examples include Denjoy-Carleman classes, the class of $\cC^\infty$ functions definable in a…
An $L^2$ version of the classical Denjoy-Carleman theorem regarding quasi-analytic functions was proved by P. Chernoff on $\mathbb R^n$ using iterates of the Laplacian. We give a simple proof of this theorem which generalizes the result on…
We give an example of a non-noetherian quasi-analytic ring constructed using a quasi-analytic Denjoy-Carleman class. If we denote by $ \mathcal{D}_n$ the ring of those $ C^\infty$ quasianalytic function germs at $0\in \mathbb{R}^n$ which…
Let $C^{[M]}$ be a (local) Denjoy-Carleman class of Beurling or Roumieu type, where the weight sequence $M=(M_k)$ is log-convex and has moderate growth. We prove that the groups ${\operatorname{Diff}}\mathcal{B}^{[M]}(\mathbb{R}^n)$,…
The notion of meromorphic convexity is defined and studied on complex manifolds. Using this notion, in analogy with Stein manifolds, a new class of complex manifolds, called {\calligra M }-manifolds, is introduced. This is a class of…
Quasianalytic classes are classes of infinitely differentiable functions that satisfy the analytic continuation property enjoyed by analytic functions. Two general examples are quasianalytic Denjoy-Carleman classes (of origin in the…
In 1978 M\'etivier showed that a differential operator $P$ with analytic coefficients is elliptic if and only if the theorem of iterates holds for $P$ with respect to any non-analytic Gevrey class. In this paper we extend this theorem to…
We show how Lasry-Lions's result on regularization of functions defined on $\mathbb{R}^n$ or on Hilbert spaces by sup-inf convolutions with squares of distances can be extended to (finite or infinite dimensional) Riemannian manifolds $M$ of…
In the first part of this work, we consider a polynomial $ \phi(x,y)=y^d+a_1(x)y^{d-1}+...+a_d(x) $ whose coefficients $ a_j $ belong to a Denjoy-Carleman quasianalytic local ring $ \mathcal{E}_1(M) $. Assuming that $ \mathcal{E}_1(M) $ is…
Let $M$ be a smooth connected orientable closed surface and $f_0\in C^\infty(M)$ a function having only critical points of the $A_\mu$-types, $\mu\in\mathbb N$. Let ${\mathcal F}={\mathcal F}(f_0)$ be the set of functions $f\in C^\infty(M)$…
We study Lie group structures on groups of the form C^\infty(M,K)}, where M is a non-compact smooth manifold and K is a, possibly infinite-dimensional, Lie group. First we prove that there is at most one Lie group structure with Lie algebra…
Modifying Hall's idea in "A C^{\infty} Denjoy counterexample" we construct an example of homeomorphism of the circle which is a Denjoy counterexample (i.e. it is not conjugated to a rotation) and which is a C^{\infty}-diffeomorphism…
We show that on any Riemannian surface for each $0<c<\infty$ there exists an immersed $C^{1,1}$ curve that is smooth and with curvature equal to $\pm c$ away from a point. We give examples showing that, in general, the regularity of the…
The equivalence of the Kohn finite ideal type and the D'Angelo finite type with the subellipticity of the $\bar\partial$-Neumann problem is extended to pseudoconvex domains in $C^n$ whose defining function is in a Denjoy-Carleman…
We define and study the $(\infty,2)$-category $\mathbf{Cat}_{\infty}(\mathcal{C})$ of $(\infty,1)$-categories internal to a general $(\infty,1)$-category $\mathcal{C}$ via an associated externalization construction. In the first part, we…
We study the action of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a compact symplectic manifold ($X,\omega$) on $C^\infty(X)$ and on functions $C^\infty(X)\to \mathbb R$. We describe various properties of invariant convex functions on $C^\infty(X)$.…
We establish that for any proper action of a Lie group on a manifold the associated equivariant differentiable cohomology groups with coefficients in modules of $\mathcal{C}^\infty$-functions vanish in all degrees except than zero.…
