Consider a real-valued function that can only be observed with stochastic noise at a finite set of design points within a Euclidean space. We wish to determine whether there exists a convex function that goes through the true function…

We have defined slowness (or reciprocal velocity, corresponding to velocity v) as cc/v, where c is the speed of light. It is observed that the relative velocity remains invariant if the velocities are replaced by corresponding slownesses…

We consider the problem of recovering a compactly-supported function from a finite collection of pointwise samples of its Fourier transform taking nonuniformly. First, we show that under suitable conditions on the sampling frequencies -…

The main features of the statistical approach to inverse problems are described on the example of a linear model with additive noise. The approach does not use any Bayesian hypothesis regarding an unknown object; instead, the standard…

For fixed natural numbers $r$ and $s$, where $2\leq s \leq r$, we consider a representation of numbers from the interval $[0;\frac{r}{s-1}]$ obtained by encoding numbers by means of the alphabet $A=\{0,1,...,r\}$ via the expansion…

Power functions with low $c$-differential uniformity have been widely studied not only because of their strong resistance to multiplicative differential attacks, but also low implementation cost in hardware. Furthermore, the…

In this work, we consider the problem of bounding the values of a covariance function corresponding to a continuous-time stationary stochastic process or signal. Specifically, for two signals whose covariance functions agree on a finite…

We say that a random vector $X=(X_1,...,X_n)$ in $R^n$ is an $n$-dimensional version of a random variable $Y$ if for any $a\in R^n$ the random variables $\sum a_iX_i$ and $\gamma(a) Y$ are identically distributed, where $\gamma:R^n\to…

A Pfaff field on a projective space is a map from the sheaf of differential s-forms, for a certain s, to an invertible sheaf. The interesting ones are those arising from a Pfaff system, as they give rise to a distribution away from their…

We prove that if $f:I\subset \Bbb R\to \Bbb R$ is of bounded variation, then the noncentered maximal function $Mf$ is absolutely continuous, and its derivative satisfies the sharp inequality $\|DMf\|_1\le |Df|(I)$. This allows us obtain,…

The f-invariant is a higher version of the e-invariant that takes values in the divided congruences between modular forms; it can be formulated as an elliptic genus of manifolds with corners of codimension two. In this thesis, we develop a…

We prove that certain quotients of entire functions are characteristic functions. Under some conditions, the probability measure corresponding to a characteristic function of that type has a density which can be expressed as a generalized…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and $T:\mathcal{H}\to \mathcal{H}$ be a contraction. Let $$A_nf=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{j=1}^nT^jf$$ for $f\in \mathcal{H}$. Let $(n_k)$ be a lacunary sequence, then there exists a constant $C_1>0$ such…

The sensitivity parameter is widely used for quantifying fine tuning. However, examples show it fails to give correct results under certain circumstances. We argue that the problems of the sensitivity parameter are almost identical to the…

The Sensitivity Conjecture and the Log-rank Conjecture are among the most important and challenging problems in concrete complexity. Incidentally, the Sensitivity Conjecture is known to hold for monotone functions, and so is the Log-rank…

Using a new technique involving integration it is possible to find the exact roots of simple functions. In this case, simple functions are defined as smooth functions having an inverse, and that inverse having an antiderivative. This…

For a continuous function $f : [0,1] \to [0,1]$ we define a splitting sequence admitted by $f$ and show that the inverse limit of $f$ is an arc if and only if $f$ does not admit a splitting sequence.

Finite metric spaces are the object of study in many data analysis problems. We examine the concept of weak isometry between finite metric spaces, in order to analyse properties of the spaces that are invariant under strictly increasing…

Let $X$ be an arbitrary real-valued random variable (r.v.), with the characteristic function (c.f.) $f$. Integral expressions for the c.f.\ of the r.v.'s $\max(0,X)$ in terms of $f$ are given, as well as other related results. Applications…

Intensionality is a phenomenon that occurs in logic and computation. In the most general sense, a function is intensional if it operates at a level finer than (extensional) equality. This is a familiar setting for computer scientists, who…
