This paper is the first in a series. The main goal of the series is to present a geometric construction of certain remarkable tensor categories arising from quantum groups coresponding to the value of deformation parameter $q$ equal to a…
The probability density function (PDF) associated with a given set of samples is approximated by a piecewise-linear polynomial constructed with respect to a binning of the sample space. The kernel functions are a compactly supported basis…
We prove a general result about the behaviour of minimizing sequences for nonlocal shape functionals satisfying suitable structural assumptions. Typical examples include functions of the eigenvalues of the fractional Laplacian under…
Under certain conditions, we obtain sharp bounds on some functionals defined in the coefficient space of starlike functions. It has been found that the functionals are closely associated with certain coefficient problems, which are of…
We characterize cofinally Bourbaki quasi-complete metric spaces and their completions in terms of certain Lipschitz-type functions. To this end, we introduce and study a new class of functions, namely strongly uniformly locally Lipschitz…
In this paper, we consider linear elliptic systems from composite materials where the coefficients depend on the shape and might have the discontinuity between the subregions. We derive a function which is related to the gradient of the…
We study fixed points of iterates of dynamically affine maps (a generalisation of Latt\`es maps) over algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic $p$. We present and study certain hypotheses that imply a dichotomy for the…
We consider the iterates of a generic injective piecewise contraction of the interval defined by a finite family of contractions. Let $\phi_i:[0,1]\to (0,1)$, $1\le i\le n$, be $C^2$-diffeomorphisms with $\sup_{x\in (0,1)} \vert…
Given a piecewise linear (PL) function $p$ defined on an open subset of $\R^n$, one may construct by elementary means a unique polyhedron with multiplicities $\D(p)$ in the cotangent bundle $\R^n\times \R^{n*}$ representing the graph of the…
We present in this paper a canonical form for the elements in the ring of continuous piecewise polynomial functions. This new representation is based on the use of a particular class of functions $$\{C_i(P):P\in\Q[x],i=0,\ldots,\deg(P)\}$$…
We study a fine hierarchy of Borel-piecewise continuous functions, especially, between closed-piecewise continuity and $G_\delta$-piecewise continuity. Our aim is to understand how a priority argument in computability theory is connected to…
Piecewise smooth systems are intensively studied today in many application areas, such as economics, finance, engineering, biology, and ecology. In this work, we consider a class of one-dimensional piecewise linear discontinuous maps with a…
Following the ideas of Andrei Lerner in [ A pointwise estimate for the local sharp maximal function with applications to singular integrals" Bull. London Math. Soc. 42 (2010) 843856], we obtain another decomposition of an arbitrary…
The main result states that every convex set-valued function defined on a real interval with compact values in a locally convex space, admits an affine selection. In the case if the target space is a real line and the values are closed real…
We investigate the connection between the spatiality of locale products and the earlier studies of the author on the locally fine coreflection of the products of uniform spaces. After giving a historical introduction and indicating the…
This work explores the query complexity of property testing for general piecewise functions on the real line, in the active and passive property testing settings. The results are proven under an abstract zero-measure crossings condition,…
We prove that the pluri-fine topology on any open set $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ is locally connected. This answers a question by Fuglede in [4]. See also Bedford [6].
We prove maximum and comparison principles for fractional discrete derivatives in the integers. Regularity results when the space is a mesh of length $h$, and approximation theorems to the continuous fractional derivatives are shown. When…
The first order loss function and its complementary function are extensively used in practical settings. When the random variable of interest is normally distributed, the first order loss function can be easily expressed in terms of the…
Local scaling of a set means that in a neighborhood of a point the structure of the set can be mapped into a finer scale structure of the set. These scaling transformations are compact sets of locally affine (that is: with uniformly…
