Let $(\Omega, \mathfrak{A}, \mu)$ and $(\Gamma, \mathfrak{B}, \nu)$ be two arbitrary measure spaces, and $p\in [1,\infty]$. Set $$L^p(\mu)_+^\mathrm{sp}:= \{f\in L^p(\mu): \|f\|_p =1; f\geq 0\ \mu\text{-a.e.} \}$$ i.e., the positive part of…

The reliable recovery and uncertainty quantification of a fixed effect function $\mu$ in a functional mixed model, for modelling population- and object-level variability in noisily observed functional data, is a notoriously challenging…

The aim of this paper is to discuss the main result in the paper by D.Y. Gao and X. Lu [On the extrema of a nonconvex functional with double-well potential in 1D, Z. Angew. Math. Phys. (2016) 67:62]. More precisely we provide a detailed…

A forcing extension may create new isomorphisms between two models of a first order theory. Certain model theoretic constraints on the theory and other constraints on the forcing can prevent this pathology. A countable first order theory is…

A generalization of the classical Sard theorem in the plane is the following. Let $f$ be a function defined on a subset $A\subset{\mathbb R}^2$. If $f$ has modulus of continuity $\omega(r)\lesssim r^2$, then $f(A)\subset{\mathbb R}$ has…

An iterated function system $\Phi$ consisting of contractive similarity mappings has a unique attractor $F \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ which is invariant under the action of the system, as was shown by Hutchinson [Hut]. This paper shows how the…

In this paper, we establish the following result: Let $(T,{\cal F},\mu)$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure space, let $Y$ be a reflexive real Banach space, and let $\varphi, \psi:Y\to {\bf R}$ be two sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous…

We study the generalized dominating number $\mathfrak{d}_{\mu}$ at a singular cardinal $\mu$ of cofinality $\kappa$. We show two lower bounds: in ZFC, $\mathrm{cf}([\mu]^\kappa,\subseteq) \leq \mathfrak{d}_{\mu}$, and under mild…

We continue the development of the theory of construction schemes over $\omega_1$ as introduced by the third author by studying their relation with forcing axioms. Formally, we introduce the cardinals $\mathfrak{m}^n_{\mathcal{F}}$ and use…

We prove that if ZF is consistent then ZFC+GCH is consistent with the following statement: There is for every k<omega a model of cardinality aleph_1 which is L_{infty,omega_1}-equivalent to exactly k non-isomorphic models of cardinality…

We define a weak iterability notion that is sufficient for a number of arguments concerning $\Sigma_1$-definability at uncountable regular cardinals. In particular we give its exact consistency strength firstly in terms of the second…

Let $f$ and $g$ be real-valued continuous injections defined on a non-empty real interval $I$, and let $(X, \mathscr{L}, \lambda)$ and $(Y, \mathscr{M}, \mu)$ be probability spaces in each of which there is at least one measurable set whose…

If $X$ is a topological space and $\kappa$ is a cardinal then $\mathsf{BA}_\kappa (X)$ is the statement that for each pair $A, B \subseteq X$ of $\kappa$-dense subsets there is an autohomeomorphism $h:X \to X$ mapping $A$ to $B$. In…

Let $m(G)$ be the infimum of the volumes of all open subgroups of a unimodular locally compact group $G$. Suppose integrable functions $\phi_1 , \phi_2 \colon G \to [0,1]$ satisfy $\| \phi_1 \| \leq \| \phi_2 \|$ and $\| \phi_1 \| + \|…

Using Koszmider's strongly unbounded functions, we show the following consistency result: Suppose that $\kappa,\lambda$ are infinite cardinals such that $\kappa^{+++} \leq \lambda$, $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$ and $2^{\kappa}= \kappa^+$, and…

We give a full description of the structure under inclusion of all finite level Borel classes of functions, and provide an elementary proof of the well-known fact that not every Borel function can be written as a countable union of…

Let $x,y\in(0,1]$ and let $A,B,C$ be disjoint nonempty subsets of a graph $G$, where every vertex in $A$ has at least $x|B|$ neighbours in $B$, and every vertex in $B$ has at least $y|C|$ neighbours in $C$. We denote by $\phi(x,y)$ the…

We introduce new zeta functions related to an endomorphism $\phi$ of a discrete group $\Gamma$. They are of two types: counting numbers of fixed ($\rho\sim \rho\circ\phi^n$) irreducible representations for iterations of $\phi$ from an…

We devote this note to correct an estimate concerning mixed inequalities for the generalized maximal function $M_\Phi$, when certain properties of the associated Young function $\Phi$ are assumed. Although the obtained estimates turn out to…

In this paper, we broaden Shiu's Brun-Titchmarsh theorem to allow for functions that are larger and/or smooth-supported. In particular, let $f$ be a nonnegative multiplicative function. We prove that if there exists a $\beta<1$ such that…
