F. Wehrung has asked: Given a family $\mathcal{C}$ of subsets of a set $\Omega$, under what conditions will there exist a total ordering on $\Omega$ under which every member of $\mathcal{C}$ is convex? <p> Note that if $A$ and $B$ are…
In this paper, it is shown that the set consisting of stable convex integrands $S^n\to \mathbb{R}_+$ is open and dense in the set consisting of $C^\infty$ convex integrands with respect to Whitney $C^\infty$ topology. Moreover, an…
The main results of this paper concern growth in sums of a $k$-convex function $f$. Firstly, we streamline the proof of a growth result for $f(A)$ where $A$ has small additive doubling, and improve the bound by removing logarithmic factors.…
We show that definable Whitney jets of class $C^{m,\omega}$, where $m$ is a nonnegative integer and $\omega$ is a modulus of continuity, are the restrictions of definable $C^{m,\omega}$-functions; "definable" refers to an arbitrary given…
Given a polynomial function $f \colon \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and a unbounded basic closed semi-algebraic set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^n,$ in this paper we show that the conditions listed below are characterized exactly in terms…
A classical result of Carleman, based on the theory of quasianalytic functions, shows that polynomials are dense in $L^2(\mu)$ for any $\mu$ such that the moments $\int x^k d\mu$ do not grow too rapidly as $k \to \infty$. In this work, we…
In 1973 J. C. Wells showed that a variant of the Whitney extension theorem holds for $C^{1,1}$-smooth real-valued functions on Hilbert spaces. In 2021 D. Azagra and C. Mudarra generalised this result to $C^{1,\omega}$-smooth functions on…
Let us consider a Riemannian manifold $M$ (either separable or non-separable). We prove that, for every $\epsilon>0$, every Lipschitz function $f:M\rightarrow\mathbb R$ can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, $C^1$-smooth function $g$…
We define in the space of n by m matrices of rank n, n less or equal than m, the condition Riemannian structure as follows: For a given matrix A the tangent space of A is equipped with the Hermitian inner product obtained by multiplying the…
In this paper we consider the question of smoothness of slowly varying functions satisfying the modern definition that, in the last two decades, gained prevalence in the applications concerning function spaces and interpolation. We show,…
Let S be a generic C-infinity smooth CR manifold in C^n, n > 1, and let M be a generic C-infinity CR submanifold of S X C^m. We prescribe conditions on M so that it is the disjoint union of graphs of CR maps f:S-->C^m. We also consider the…
We study multivariate entire functions and polynomials with non-negative coefficients. A class of {\bf Strongly Log-Concave} entire functions, generalizing {\it Minkowski} volume polynomials, is introduced: an entire function $f$ in $m$…
Here is one of the results obtained in this paper: Let $X, Y$ be two convex sets each in a real vector space, let $J:X\times Y\to {\bf R}$ be convex and without global minima in $X$ and concave in $Y$, and let $\Phi:X\to {\bf R}$ be…
In this paper, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for a sense-preserving harmonic function to be absolutely convex in the open unit disk. We also estimate the coefficient bound and obtain growth, covering and area theorems for…
We generalize the theory of Widom factors to the $\mathbb C^n$ setting. We define Widom factors of compact subsets $K\subset \mathbb C^n$ associated with multivariate orthogonal polynomials and weighted Chebyshev polynomials. We show that…
We study the set of common $\mathbb{F}_q$-rational solutions of "smooth" systems of multivariate symmetric polynomials with coefficients in a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We show that, under certain conditions, the set of common solutions…
We introduce a notion of quasiconvexity for continuous functions $f$ defined on the vector bundle of linear maps between the tangent spaces of a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and $\mathbb{R}^m$, naturally generalizing the classical…
Subdifferentials (in the sense of convex analysis) of matrix-valued functions defined on $\mathbb{R}^d$ that are convex with respect to the L\"{o}wner partial order can have a complicated structure and might be very difficult to compute…
We generalize the Bernstein-Walsh-Siciak theorem on polynomial approximation in $\mathbb{C}^n$ to the case where the polynomial ring $\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{C}^n)$ is replaced by a subring $\mathcal{P}^S(\mathbb{C}^n)$ consisting of all…
