Consider a positive operator $T$ on an $L^p$-space (or, more generally, a Banach lattice) which increases the support of functions in the sense that $supp(Tf) \supseteq supp{f}$ for every function $f \ge 0$. We show that this implies, under…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of telescopers for rational functions of two variables in the continuous, discrete and q-discrete settings and characterize which operators can occur as telescopers. Using this…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a function in a naturally appearing functional space to be a fixed point of the Ruelle-Thurston operator associated to a rational function, see Lemma 2.1. The proof uses essentially a recent…
Through a cascade of generalizations, we develop a theory of motivic integration which works uniformly in all non-archimedean local fields of characteristic zero, overcoming some of the difficulties related to ramification and small residue…
Regular functions from infinite words to infinite words can be equivalently specified by MSO-transducers, streaming $\omega$-string transducers as well as deterministic two-way transducers with look-ahead. In their one-way restriction, the…
Regular functions of infinite words are (partial) functions realized by deterministic two-way transducers with infinite look-ahead. Equivalently, Alur et. al. have shown that they correspond to functions realized by deterministic Muller…
In this paper we investigate algebraic function fields in positive characteristic mainly obtained as double Artin-Schreier extensions of rational function fields with a plane model. The goal is to extend to such extensions large…
We prove {the first} regularity theorem for the free boundary of solutions to shape optimization problems involving integral functionals, for which the energy of a domain $\Omega$ is obtained as the integral of a cost function $j(u,x)$…
We define two versions of compositions of matrix-valued rational functions of appropriate sizes and whenever analytic at infinity, offer a set of formulas for the corresponding state-space realization, in terms of the realizations of the…
Blowing up a point p in a manifold M builds a new manifold M' in which p is replaced by the projectivization of the tangent space of M at p. This well-known operation also applies to fixed points of diffeomorphisms, yielding continuous…
We study polynomials with no zeros on the unit ball in complex Euclidean space with a view toward characterizing when a rational function is bounded on the ball. We give a complete local description of such polynomials in two variables near…
Following Chaudhuri, Sankaranarayanan, and Vardi, we say that a function $f:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ is $r$-regular if there is a B\"{u}chi automaton that accepts precisely the set of base $r \in \mathbb{N}$ representations of elements of the graph…
We define a function by refining Stern's diatomic sequence. We name it the {\it assembly function}. It is strictly increasing continuous. The first and the second main theorems are on an action to the function. The third theorem is on…
The purpose of this survey is a comprehensive study of operator Lip\-schitz functions. A continuous function $f$ on the real line ${\Bbb R}$ os called operator Lipschitz if $\|f(A)-f(B)\|\le\operatorname{const}\|A-B\|$ for arbitrary…
Considering second variations about a given minimizer of a causal variational principle, we derive positive functionals in space-time. It is shown that the strict positivity of these functionals ensures that the minimizer is nonlinearly…
Given a rational function of degree at least two defined over a number field k, we study the cardinality of the set of rational iterated preimages. We prove bounds for the cardinality of this set as the rational function varies in certain…
Let $B$ be a fixed rational function of one complex variable of degree at least two. In this paper, we study solutions of the functional equation $A\circ X=X\circ B$ in rational functions $A$ and $X$. Our main result states that, unless $B$…
We develop contractive finite dimensional realizations for rational matrix functions of one variable on domains that are not simply connected, such as the annulus. The proof uses multivariable contractive realization results as well as…
Motivated by recent work in the mathematics and engineering literature, we study integrability and non-tangential regularity on the two-torus for rational functions that are holomorphic on the bidisk. One way to study such rational…
Let X be an affine real algebraic set . We investigate on the theory of algebraically constructible functions on X and the description of the semi-algebraic subsets of X when we replace the polynomial functions on X by some rational…
