Let $\{ B(t) \colon 0\leq t\leq 1\}$ be a linear Brownian motion and let $\dim$ denote the Hausdorff dimension. Let $\alpha>\frac12$ and $1\leq \beta \leq 2$. We prove that, almost surely, there exists no set $A\subset[0,1]$ such that $\dim…
We show that there are functions $f$ in the H\"older class $C^{ { \alpha }}[0,1]$, $1< { \alpha }<2$ such that $f|_{A}$ is not convex, nor concave for any $A { \subset } [0,1]$ with $ { \bar { dim }_M } A> { \alpha }-1$. Our earlier result…
It is well known that standard one-dimensional Brownian motion B(t) has no isolated zeros almost surely. We show that for any alpha<1/2 there are alpha-H\"older continuous functions f for which the process B-f has isolated zeros with…
We study the size of the set of points where the $\alpha$-divided difference of a function in the H\"older class $\Lambda_\alpha$ is bounded below by a fixed positive constant. Our results are obtained from their discrete analogues which…
We study the level sets of prevalent H\"older functions. For a prevalent $\alpha$-H\"older function on the unit interval, we show that the upper Minkowski dimension of every level set is bounded from above by $1-\alpha$ and Lebesgue…
Let $K$ be a compact set in $\rd$ with positive Hausdorff dimension. Using a Fractional Brownian Motion, we prove that in a prevalent set of continuous functions on $K$, the Hausdorff dimension of the graph is equal to $\dim_{\mathcal…
Suppose $X$ is a uniformly distributed $n$-dimensional binary vector and $Y$ is obtained by passing $X$ through a binary symmetric channel with crossover probability $\alpha$. A recent conjecture by Courtade and Kumar postulates that…
We provide upper and lower bounds for the mean ${\mathscr M}(H)$ of $\sup_{t\geqslant 0} \{B_H(t) - t\}$, with $B_H(\cdot)$ a zero-mean, variance-normalized version of fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H\in(0,1)$. We find…
Let $\psi:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}_+$ be a monotonically non-increasing function, and let $\psi_v:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}_+$ be defined by $\psi_v(q)=1/q^v$. In this article, we consider self-similar sets whose iterated…
For the fractional Brownian motion $B^H$ with the Hurst parameter value $H$ in (0,1/2), we derive new upper and lower bounds for the difference between the expectations of the maximum of $B^H$ over [0,1] and the maximum of $B^H$ over the…
We show that a function $ f $ of bounded variation satisfies $$ \Var Mf \leq C \Var f $$ where $ Mf $ is the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function of $ f $. Consequently, the operator $ f \mapsto (Mf)' $ is bounded from $ W^{1,1}(R) $…
Suppose that $f$ belongs to a suitably defined complete metric space $ {{\cal C}}^{{\alpha}}$ of H\"older $ {\alpha}$-functions defined on $[0,1]$. We are interested in whether one can find large (in the sense of Hausdorff, or lower/upper…
Let $k$ be a natural number. We consider $k$-times continuously-differentiable real-valued functions $f:E\to\mathbb{R}$, where $E$ is some interval on the line having positive length. For $0<\alpha<1$ let $I_\alpha(f)$ denote the set of…
In this note we prove an existence and uniqueness result of solution for multidimensional delay differential equations with normal reflection and driven by a H\"older continuous function of order $\beta \in (\frac13,\frac12)$. We also…
This paper shows $$ \sup_{f\in H^s(\mathbb{R}^n)}\dim _H\left\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n:\ \lim_{t\rightarrow0}e^{it(-\Delta)^\alpha}f(x)\neq f(x)\right\}\leq n+1-\frac{2(n+1)s}{n}\ \ \text{under}\ \ \begin{cases} n\geq2;\\ \alpha>\frac12;…
For $\lambda \in (1/2, 1)$ and $\alpha$, we consider sets of numbers $x$ such that for infinitely many $n$, $x$ is $2^{-\alpha n}$-close to some $\sum_{i=1}^n \omega_i \lambda^i$, where $\omega_i \in \{0,1\}$. These sets are in Falconer's…
We obtain sharp bounds for the modulus of continuity of the uncentered maximal function in terms of the modulus of continuity of the given function, via integral formulas. Some of the results deduced from these formulas are the following:…
We establish sharp bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of sets of irrational numbers in $(0,1)$ whose digits in the $N$-expansion are either uniformly bounded or tend to infinity. For sets with digits bounded by an integer $M \ge N$, we…
By the Cameron--Martin theorem, if a function $f$ is in the Dirichlet space $D$, then $B+f$ has the same a.s. properties as standard Brownian motion, $B$. In this paper we examine properties of $B+f$ when $f \notin D$. We start by…
For $f: [0,1]\to \mathbb R$, we consider $L^f_t$, the local time of space-time Brownian motion on the curve $f$. Let ${\cal S}_\alpha$ be the class of all functions whose H\"older norm of order $\alpha$ is less than or equal to 1. We show…
