In this paper, we introduce and investigate a class P of continuous and periodic functions on R. The class P is defined so that second-order central differences of a function satisfy some concavity-type estimate. Although this definition…

We construct examples of twice differentiable functions in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with continuous Laplacian and bounded Hessian. The same construction is also applicable to higher order differentiability, the Monge-Amp\`ere equation, and mean…

We consider a semi-algebraic function defined on a closed semi-algebraic set X. We give formulas relating the topology of X to the indices of the critical points of the function and to the topological behavior of the function at infinity.…

We define discrete generating series for arbitrary functions \( f \colon \mathbb{Z}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{C} \) and derive functional relations that these series satisfy. For linear difference equations with constant coefficients, we…

Bounded holomorphic functions on the disk have radial limits in almost every direction, as follows from Fatou's theorem. Given a zero-measure set $E$ in the torus $\mathbb T$, we study the set of functions such that $\lim_{r \to 1^{-}} f(r…

We make some remarks on the global shape of continuous convex functions defined on a Banach space $Z$. Among other results we prove that if $Z$ is separable then for every continuous convex function $f:Z\to\mathbb{R}$ there exist a unique…

Let $USC^*_p(X)$ be the topological space of real upper semicontinuous bounded functions defined on $X$ with the subspace topology of the product topology on ${}^X\mathbb{R}$. $\tilde\Phi^{\uparrow},\tilde\Psi^{\uparrow}$ are the sets of…

A dichotomy discovered by Solecki says that a Baire class 1 function from a Souslin space into a Polish space either can be decomposed into countably many continuous functions, or else contains one particular function which cannot be so…

This paper focuses mainly on the ring of all bounded Baire one functions on a topological space. The uniform norm topology arises from the $\sup$-norm defined on the collection $B_1^*(X)$ of all bounded Baire one functions. With respect to…

We investigate sufficient conditions for real-valued functions on product spaces to be bounded from above by sums or products of functions which depend only on points in the respective factors.

Any function can be constructed using a hierarchy of simpler functions through compositions. Such a hierarchy can be characterized by a binary rooted tree. Each node of this tree is associated with a function which takes as inputs two…

We consider convex sets and functions over idempotent semifields, like the max-plus semifield. We show that if $K$ is a conditionally complete idempotent semifield, with completion $\bar{K}$, a convex function $K^n\to\bar{K}$ which is lower…

Spherically complete ball spaces provide a framework for the proof of generic fixed point theorems. For the purpose of their application it is important to have methods for the construction of new spherically complete ball spaces from given…

Let A be an arbitrary countable set of reals, for example A=Q. Let g be an arbitrary mapping from A into the positive reals, for example g(a)=2^a. We show how a strictly increasing real function f can be constructed such that f'(x)=g(x) for…

In this paper we give a description of separating or disjointness preserving linear bijections on spaces of vector-valued absolutely continuous functions defined on compact subsets of the real line. We obtain that they are continuous and…

Given a topological space $X$, we study the structure of $\infty$-convex subsets in the space $SC_p(X)$ of scatteredly continuous functions on $X$. Our main result says that for a topological space $X$ with countable strong fan tightness,…

A function $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is called $\sigma$-$continuous$ (resp. $\bar\sigma$-$continuous$) if there exists a (closed) cover $\{X_n\}_{n\in\omega}$ of $X$ such that for every $n\in\omega$ the restriction…

We present a constructive proof of Brouwer's fixed point theorem for uniformly continuous and sequentially locally non-constant functions based on the existence of approximate fixed points. And we will show that Brouwer's fixed point…
