Let W be a polyconvex function defined on the 2 x 2 real matrices. The Busemann representative f, say, of W is the largest possible convex representative of W. Writing L for the set of affine functions on R^{5} such that a(A, det A) is less…
In this article, we introduce classes of functions whose increment is controlled by the measure of a ball containing the corresponding points and a nonnegative function p(.) that is summable with respect to measure. These classes of…
Uniform measures are defined as the functionals on the space of bounded uniformly continuous functions that are continuous on bounded uniformly equicontinuous sets. If every cardinal has measure zero then every countably additive measure is…
Many results in mass partitions are proved by lifting $\mathbb{R}^d$ to a higher-dimensional space and dividing the higher-dimensional space into pieces. We extend such methods to use lifting arguments to polyhedral surfaces. Among other…
We consider convex sets and functions over idempotent semifields, like the max-plus semifield. We show that if $K$ is a conditionally complete idempotent semifield, with completion $\bar{K}$, a convex function $K^n\to\bar{K}$ which is lower…
The paper explores various special functions which generalize the two-parametric Mittag-Leffler type function of two variables. Integral representations for these functions in different domains of variation of arguments for certain values…
The first aims of this work are to endorse the advent of finitely additive set functions as equilibrium states and the possibility to replace the metric entropy by an upper semi-continuous map associated to a general variational principle.…
Some concepts, such as non-compactness measure and condensing operators, defined on metric spaces are extended to uniform spaces. Such extensions allow us to locate, in the context of uniform spaces, some classical results existing in…
A piecewise linear function can be described in different forms: as an arbitrarily nested expression of $\min$- and $\max$-functions, as a difference of two convex piecewise linear functions, or as a linear combination of maxima of…
We examine domain-valued maxitive measures defined on the Borel subsets of a topological space. Several characterizations of regularity of maxitive measures are proved, depending on the structure of the topological space. Since every…
We consider approximation by functions with finite support and characterize its approximation spaces in terms of interpolation spaces and Lorentz spaces.
We give a short proof that there exists a countable state Bernoulli measure maximizing the dimension of their images under the continued fraction expansion.
We consider a scalar-valued implicit function of many variables, and provide two closed formulae for all of its partial derivatives. One formula is based on products of partial derivatives of the defining function, the other one involves…
Approximating a convex function by a polyhedral function that has a limited number of facets is a fundamental problem with applications in various fields, from mitigating the curse of dimensionality in optimal control to bi-level…
Recent work on the representation of functions on sets has considered the use of summation in a latent space to enforce permutation invariance. In particular, it has been conjectured that the dimension of this latent space may remain fixed…
In this note, we investigate the supremum and the infimum of the functional $|a_{n+1}|-|a_{n}|$ for functions, convex and analytic on the unit disk, of the form $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\dots.$ We also consider the related problem to maximize…
Ergodic optimization aims to single out dynamically invariant Borel probability measures which maximize the integral of a given "performance" function. For a continuous self-map of a compact metric space and a dense set of continuous…
In this paper, we characterize stratifiable (or semi-stratifiable) spaces, and monotonically countably paracompact (or monotonically countably metacompact) spaces by expansions of locally upper bounded semi-continuous poset-valued maps.…
The Lebesgue property (order-continuity) of a monotone convex function on a solid vector space of measurable functions is characterized in terms of (1) the weak inf-compactness of the conjugate function on the order-continuous dual space,…
We introduce a functor of functionals which preserve maximum of comonotone functions and addition of constants. This functor is a subfunctor of the functor of order-preserving functionals and contains the idempotent measure functor as…
