Let $f$ be a Gaussian random field on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and let $X$ be the number of critical points of $f$ contained in a compact subset. A long-standing conjecture is that, under mild regularity and non-degeneracy conditions on $f$, the…

In this paper we give an improved upper bound, as compared to the one given in [3] for the number of extreme points of the convex set of all G-invariant probability measures on X*Y with given marginals of full support.

We establish presumably optimal rates of normal convergence with respect to the Kolmogorov distance for a large class of geometric functionals of marked Poisson and binomial point processes on general metric spaces. The rates are valid…

We establish the \emph{inverse conjecture for the Gowers norm over finite fields}, which asserts (roughly speaking) that if a bounded function $f: V \to \C$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field $\F$ has large Gowers…

Let ${\mathcal P}_k$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $k$ with real coefficients. Let ${\mathcal P}_{n,k}$ be the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n+k$ having exactly $n+1$ zeros at $0$. Let…

We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…

Let $f$ be a real function defined on the interval $[0,1]$ which is constant on $(a,b)\subset [0,1]$, and let $B_nf$ be its associated $n$th Bernstein polynomial. We prove that, for any $x\in (a,b)$, $|B_nf(x)-f(x)|$ converges to $0$ as…

We prove an almost everywhere convergence result for Bochner-Riesz means of $L^p$ functions on Heisenberg-type groups, yielding the existence of a $p>2$ for which convergence holds for means of arbitrarily small order. The proof hinges on a…

For a real valued periodic smooth function u on R, $n\ge 0$, one defines the osculating polynomial $\phi_s$ (of order 2n+1) at a point $s\in R$ to be the unique trigonometric polynomial of degree n, whose value and first 2n derivatives at s…

Given a porous compact $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and a continuity modulus $\omega$, we prove a quantitative Jackson-Bernstein type theorem on harmonic approximation. That is, a function $f$ belongs to the class $\mathrm{Lip}_{\omega}(K)$ if…

We propose a new approach to deriving quantitative mean field approximations for any probability measure $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density proportional to $e^{f(x)}$, for $f$ strongly concave. We bound the mean field approximation for the…

A small polygon is a polygon of unit diameter. The maximal perimeter and the maximal width of a convex small polygon with $n=2^s$ vertices are not known when $s \ge 4$. In this paper, we construct a family of convex small $n$-gons, $n=2^s$…

In this paper we deal with improvement of Jensen, Jensen-Steffensen's and Jensen's functionals related inequalities for uniformly convex, phi-convex and superquadratic functions.

A function of a matrix is polyconvex when it can be expressed as a convex function of the matrix minors. Polyconvexity is a regularity condition ensuring existence of minimizers in nonlinear elasticity and, more broadly, in vectorial…

A new set of multiple orthogonal polynomials of both type I and type II with respect to two weight functions involving Gauss' hypergeometric function on the interval $(0,1)$ is studied. This type of polynomials have direct applications in…

In a series of recent papers, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer developed a new theory by which they recover all major generic inequalities relating exponents of Diophantine approximation to a point in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and find new ones. Given a…

We provide some conditions for the graph of a Hoelder-continuous function on \bar{D}, where \bar{D} is a closed disc in the complex plane, to be polynomially convex. Almost all sufficient conditions known to date --- provided the function…

This paper concerns the approximation by the Boolean sums of Jackson operators $\oplus^rJ_{k,s}(f)$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb S^{n-1}$ of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. We prove the following the direct and inverse theorem for $\oplus^rJ_{k,s}(f)$:…

Let $P_1,\dots, P_n$ and $Q_1,\dots, Q_n$ be convex polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $P_i\subset Q_i$. It is well-known that the mixed volume has the monotonicity property: $V(P_1,\dots,P_n)\leq V(Q_1,\dots,Q_n)$. We give two criteria…

Most approximation methods in high dimensions exploit smoothness of the function being approximated. These methods provide poor convergence results for non-smooth functions with kinks. For example, such kinks can arise in the uncertainty…
