This paper investigates some aspects of the variational behaviour of nonsmooth functions, with special emphasis on certain stability phenomena. Relationships linking such properties as sharp minimality, superstability, error bound and…

Let S be a dense sub-semigroup of the positive real numbers, and let X be a separable, reflexive Banach space. This note contains a proof that every weakly continuous contractive semigroup of operators on X over S can be extended to a…

Using the method of forcing we prove that consistently there is a Banach space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space with the Grothendieck property and with density less than the continuum. It follows that the classical…

In this paper, we consider the well known problem of estimating a density function under qualitative assumptions. More precisely, we estimate monotone non increasing densities in a Bayesian setting and derive concentration rate for the…

Let $0\le \alpha \le \beta\le 1$. For any finite set $B\subset\mathbb{N}$, we show that there exists a set $A\subset\mathbb{N}$ such that $\underline{d}(A+B) = \alpha$ and $\bar{d}(A+B) = \beta$, where $\underline{d}(A+ B)$ and…

Given a dynamical system $(X,T)$ and a family $\mathsf{I}\subseteq \mathcal{P}(\omega)$ of "small" sets of nonnegative integers, a point $x \in X$ is said to be $\mathsf{I}$-strong universal if for each $y \in X$ there exists a subsequence…

We consider the Banach space consisting of real-valued continuous functions on an arbitrary compact metric space. It is known that for a prevalent (in the sense of Hunt, Sauer and Yorke) set of functions the Hausdorff dimension of the image…

Using the methods from topological dynamics, H. Furstenberg introduced the notion of a central set and proved the famous Central Sets Theorem. Later D. De, Neil Hindman, and D. Strauss [Fund. Math.199 (2008), 155-175.] established a…

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for a continuous bounded function $f: R\to C$ to be a characteristic function of a probability measure. The Cauchy transform $K_f$ of $f$ is used as analytic continuation of $f$ to the upper and…

We show that capacity can be computed with locally Lipschitz functions in locally complete and separable metric spaces. Further, we show that if $(X,d,\mu)$ is a locally complete and separable metric measure space, then continuous functions…

The classical theorem of Bishop-Phelps asserts that, for a Banach space X, the norm-achieving functionals in X* are dense in X*. Bela Bollobas's extension of the theorem gives a quantitative description of just how dense the norm-achieving…

We report a recent developement on the theory of upper conical densities. More precicely, we look at what can be said in this respect for other measures than just the Hausdorff measure. We illustrate the methods involved by proving a result…

Let $f: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{C}$ be a multiplicative function for which $$ \sum_{p : \, |f(p)| \neq 1} \frac{1}{p} = \infty. $$ We show under this condition alone that for any integer $h \neq 0$ the set $$ \{n \in \mathbb{N} : f(n) =…

We investigate differences between upper and lower porosity. In finite dimensional Banach spaces every upper porous set is directionally upper porous. We show the situation is very different for lower porous sets; there exists a lower…

Density of Lipschitz functions in Newtonian spaces based on quasi-Banach function lattices is discussed. Newtonian spaces are first-order Sobolev-type spaces on abstract metric measure spaces defined via (weak) upper gradients. Our main…

The Haraux function is an important tool in monotone operator theory and its applications. One of its salient properties for a maximally monotone operator is to be valued in $[0,+\infty]$ and to vanish only on the graph of the operator.…

If $X$ is a stable process of index $\alpha\in(0,2)$ whose L\'{e}vy measure has density $cx^{-\alpha-1}$ on $(0,\infty)$, and $S_1=\sup_{0<t\leq1}X_t$, it is known that $P(S_1>x)\backsim A\alpha ^{-1}x^{-\alpha}$ as $x\to\infty$ and…

We provide a framework for proofs of structural theorems about sets with positive Banach logarithmic density. For example, we prove that if $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ has positive Banach logarithmic density, then $A$ contains an approximate…

Regular variation of a multivariate measure with a Lebesgue density implies the regular variation of its density provided the density satisfies some regularity conditions. Unlike the univariate case, the converse also requires regularity…

One can define Fourier multipliers on a Banach function space by using the direct and inverse Fourier transforms on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ or by using the direct Fourier transform on $S(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and the inverse one on $S'(\mathbb{R}^n)$.…
