A Sturm-Liouville problem ($\lambda wy=(ry')'+qy$) is singular if its domain is unbounded or if $r$ or $w$ vanish at the boundary. Then it is difficult to tell whether profound results from regular Sturm-Liouville theory apply. Existing…

We introduce a family of (nonlinear) pairing measures that ensure the validity of the divergence rule for composite functions $\boldsymbol{B}(x,u(x))$, where $\boldsymbol{B}(\cdot,t)$ is a bounded divergence-measure vector field, and $u$ is…

We are concerned with the problem of witnessing the Baire property of the Borel and the projective sets (assuming determinacy) through a sufficiently definable function in the codes. We prove that in the case of projective sets it is…

To explore the relation between properties of Loewner chains and properties of their driving functions, we study Loewner chains driven by functions $U$ of finite total variation. Under some appropriate conditions, we show existence of the…

We consider a homogeneous space X=(X,d,m) of dimension $\nu \geq 1$ and a local regular Dirichlet form in L^{2}(X,m). We prove that if a Poincar\'{e} inequality holds on every pseudo-ball B(x,R) of X, with local characteristic constant…

We study the potential theory of a large class of infinite dimensional L\'evy processes, including Brownian motion on abstract Wiener spaces. The key result is the construction of compact Lyapunov functions, i.e. excessive functions with…

We study the hole probabilities of the infinite Ginibre ensemble ${\mathcal X}_{\infty}$, a determinantal point process on the complex plane with the kernel $\mathbb K(z,w)= \frac{1}{\pi}e^{z\bar w-\frac{1}{2}|z|^2-\frac{1}{2}|w|^2}$ with…

A result by Courr\`ege says that linear translation invariant operators satisfy the maximum principle if and only if they are of the form $\mathcal{L}=\mathcal{L}^{\sigma,b}+\mathcal{L}^\mu$ where $$…

We provide a new proof of ``most" cases of the polynomial Wiener-Wintner theorem for $\sigma$-finite spaces, using hard-analytic methods. Specifically, we prove that whenever $(X,\mu,T)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure-preserving system, and…

We obtain a new Liouville comparison principle for entire weak solutions $(u,v)$ of semilinear parabolic second-order partial differential inequalities of the form $$ u_t -{\mathcal L}u- |u|^{q-1}u\geq v_t -{\mathcal L}v- |v|^{q-1}v (*) $$…

This article examines the properties of positive solutions to fully nonlinear systems of integral equations involving Hardy and Wolff potentials. The first part of the paper establishes an optimal existence result and a Liouville type…

We define a random Liouville function (\lambda_Q) which depends on a random set (Q) of primes and prove that (A_Q = \{n \in \mathbb{N} | \lambda_Q(n) = -1 \}) is normal almost everywhere. This fact enables us to generate a family of normal…

We revisit the classical phenomenon of duality between random integer-valued height functions with positive definite potentials and abelian spin models with O(2) symmetry. We use it to derive new results in quite high generality including:…

We study here the action of subgroups of PSL(2,R) on the space of harmonic functions on the unit disc bounded by a common constant, as well as the relationship this action has with the foliated Liouville problem: Given a foliation of a…

We study the properties imposed by microcausality and positivity on the retarded two-point Green's function in a theory with spontaneous breaking of Lorentz invariance. We assume invariance under time and spatial translations, so that the…

Let $W_i=\{W_i(t), t\in \mathbb{R}_+\}, i=1,2$ be two Wiener processes and $W_3=\{W_3(\mathbf{t}), \mathbf{t}\in \mathbb{R}_+^2\}$ be a two-parameter Brownian sheet, all three processes being mutually independent. We derive upper and lower…

We prove that, on the classical Wiener space, the random variable $\sup_{0\le t \le T} W_t$ admits a measure as second Malliavin derivative, whose total variation measure is finite and singular w.r.t.\ the Wiener measure.

Lower bound on the equivariant Hilbertian compression exponent $\alpha$ are obtained using random walks. More precisely, if the probability of return of the simple random walk is $\succeq \textrm{exp}(-n^\gamma)$ in a Cayley graph then…

We investigate the conditions under which the space of bounded harmonic functions of a probability measure $\mu$ on a group $G$ is contained in that of another measure $\theta$. We establish that asymptotic commutativity, defined by the…

On a metric space equipped with a doubling measure supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that given a BV function, discarding a set of small $1$-capacity makes the function continuous outside its jump set and ``one-sidedly" continuous…
