Let $H$ be a Hilbert space that can be embedded as a dense subspace of a Banach space $X$ such that the norm of the embedding is equal to $1$. We consider the following statements for a nonzero vector $\varphi$ in $H$: (A) $\|\varphi\|_X =…

We characterize the class of separable Banach spaces $X$ such that for every continuous function $f:X\to\mathbb{R}$ and for every continuous function $\epsilon:X\to\mathbb(0,+\infty)$ there exists a $C^1$ smooth function $g:X\to\mathbb{R}$…

We study Dirichlet-type spaces $\mathfrak{D}_{\alpha}$ of analytic functions in the unit bidisk and their cyclic elements. These are the functions $f$ for which there exists a sequence $(p_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ of polynomials in two variables…

Let $\{F_n\}$ be the sequence of the Fej\'er kernels on the unit circle $\mathbb{T}$. The first author recently proved that if $X$ is a separable Banach function space on $\mathbb{T}$ such that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $M$ is…

Let $\mathscr{C}_\mathbb{Z}([0,1])$ be the metric space of real-valued continuous functions on $[0,1]$ with integer values at $0$ and $1$, equipped with the uniform (supremum) metric $d_\infty$. It is a classical theorem in approximation…

It is well known that if $h$ is a nonnegative harmonic function in the ball of $\RR^{d+1}$ or if $h$ is harmonic in the ball with integrable boundary values, then the radial limit of $h$ exists at almost every point of the boundary. In this…

A deep approximation is an approximating function defined by composing more than one layer of simple functions. We study deep approximations of functions of one variable using layers consisting of low-degree polynomials or simple conformal…

Let $L_H$ denote the set of all normalized locally one-to-one and sense-preserving harmonic functions in the unit disc $\Delta$. It is well-known that every complex-valued harmonic function in the unit disc $\Delta$ can be uniquely…

Newtonian spaces generalize first-order Sobolev spaces to abstract metric measure spaces. In this paper, we study regularity of Newtonian functions based on quasi-Banach function lattices. Their (weak) quasi-continuity is established,…

Using the variational method, it is shown that the set of all strong peak functions in a closed algebra $A$ of $C_b(K)$ is dense if and only if the set of all strong peak points is a norming subset of $A$. As a corollary we can induce the…

Assume that $V_h$ is a space of piecewise polynomials of degree less than $r\geq 1$ on a family of quasi-uniform triangulation of size $h$. Then the following well-known upper bound holds for a sufficiently smooth function $u$ and $p\in [1,…

Consider the vanishing locus of a real analytic function on $\mathbb{R}^n$ restricted to $[0,1]^n$. We bound the number of rational points of bounded height that approximate this set very well. Our result is formulated and proved in the…
