One of the classical problems concerns the class of analytic functions $f$ on the open unit disk $|z|<1$ which have finite Dirichlet integral $\Delta(1,f)$, where $$\Delta(r,f)=\iint_{|z|<r}|f'(z)|^2 \, dxdy \quad (0<r\leq 1). $$ The class…
We study a family of combinatorial optimization problems defined by a parameter $p\in[0,1]$, which involves spectral functions applied to positive semidefinite matrices, and has some application in the theory of optimal experimental design.…
We study the existence and properties of metrics maximising the first Laplace eigenvalue among conformal metrics of unit volume on Riemannian surfaces. We describe a general approach to this problem and its higher eigenvalue versions via…
In this paper, locally Lipschitz functions acting between infinite dimensional normed spaces are considered. When the range is a dual space and satisfies the Radon--Nikod\'ym property, Clarke's generalized Jacobian will be extended to this…
If mu is a smooth density on a hypersurface in R^d whose curvature never vanishes to infinite order, and A is a d-by-d matrix whose eigenvalues all have absolute value greater than 1, then the maximal function given by convolving f with…
We make a study of Weinstein functionals, first defined in ~\cite{W}, on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$. We are primarily interested in the existence of Weinstein functional maximisers, or, in other words, existence of extremal…
We prove existence results for optimization problems for the $k$th Laplace eigenvalue on closed Riemannian manifolds of dimension $m \geq 3$, depending on the choice of normalization. One such normalization leads to eigenvalue optimization…
We study the extremal solution for the problem $(-\Delta)^s u=\lambda f(u)$ in $\Omega$, $u\equiv0$ in $\R^n\setminus\Omega$, where $\lambda>0$ is a parameter and $s\in(0,1)$. We extend some well known results for the extremal solution when…
Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of analytic and univalent ({\it i.e.}, one-to-one) functions $ f(z)= z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty}a_n z^n$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in \mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$. For $f\in \mathcal{S}$, In 1999, Ma proposed the…
We consider Gomory and Johnson's infinite group model with a single row. Valid inequalities for this model are expressed by valid functions and it has been recently shown that any valid function is dominated by some nonnegative valid…
Inspired by a question of Lie, we study boundedness in subspaces of $L^1(\mathbb{R})$ of oscillatory maximal functions. In particular, we construct functions in $L^1(\mathbb{R})$ which are never integrable under action of our class of…
For a polynomial $f(x)\in \mathbb Z[x]$ we study an analogue of Jacobsthal function, defined by the formula \[ j_f(N)=\max_{m}\{\text{For some } x\in \mathbb N \text{ the inequality } (x+f(i),N)>1 \text{ holds for all }i\leq m\}. \] We…
The $n$-dimensional hypercube has $n+1$ distinct eigenvalues $n-2i$, $0\leq i\leq n$, with corresponding eigenspaces $U_i(n)$. In 2021 it was proved by the author that if a function with non-empty support belongs to the direct sum…
We discuss the regularity of extremal functions in certain weighted Bergman and Fock type spaces. Given an appropriate analytic function $k$, the corresponding extremal function is the function with unit norm maximizing $\text{Re}…
We prove that every measurable function $f:\,[0,a]\to\mathbb{C}$ such that $|f|=1$ a.e. on $[0,a]$ is an extreme point of the unit ball of the Lorentz space $\Lambda(\varphi)$ on $[0,a]$ whenever $\varphi$ is a not linear, strictly…
We perform the spectral analysis of a family of Jacobi operators $J(\alpha)$ depending on a complex parameter $\alpha$. If $|\alpha|\neq1$ the spectrum of $J(\alpha)$ is discrete and formulas for eigenvalues and eigenvectors are established…
In this work, we study the extremal functions of the log-Sobolev functional on compact metric measure spaces satisfying the $\mathrm{RCD}^*(K,N)$ condition for $K$ in $\mathbb{R}$ and $N$ in $(2,\infty)$. We show the existence, regularity…
We exhibit a class of "relatively curved" $\vec{\gamma}(t) := (\gamma_1(t),\dots,\gamma_n(t))$, so that the pertaining multi-linear maximal function satisfies the sharp range of H\"{o}lder exponents, \[ \left\| \sup_{r > 0} \ \frac{1}{r}…

The paper presents a method to compute the Jacobi's elliptic function \texttt{sn} on the period parallelogram. For fixed $m$ it requires first to compute the complete elliptic integrals $K=K(m)$ and $K'=K(1-m).$ The Newton method is used to…
