Let $b \ge 2$ and $\ell \ge 1$ be integers. We establish that there is an absolute real number $K$ such that all the partial quotients of the rational number $$ \prod_{h = 0}^\ell \, (1 - b^{-2^h}), $$ of denominator $b^{2^{\ell+1} - 1}$,…
This contribution establishes exact tail asymptotics of $\sup_{(s,t)\in\mathbf{E}}$ $X(s,t)$ for a large class of nonhomogeneous Gaussian random fields $X$ on a bounded convex set $\mathbf{E}\subset\mathbb{R}^2$, with variance function that…
Our object of study is extremal functions which are defined by distance functions of convex bodies. These functions take values in the moduli spaces of algebraic and geometric objects associated with these ${\mathbb Z}$-modules (geometric…
Totally positive matrices are related with the shape preserving representations of a space of functions. The normalized B-basis of the space has optimal shape preserving properties. B-splines and rational Bernstein bases are examples of…
Let \(\mu\) be a finite Borel measure on \((-\pi,\pi)\). Consider the one-dimensional Poisson equation \(-u''=\mu\), where equality holds in the sense of distributions, with Dirichlet boundary conditions \(u(\pm\pi)=0\). In this paper, we…
For a locally finite point set $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}$, consider the collection of exponential functions given by $\mathcal{E}_{\Lambda}:= \{e^{i \lambda x} : \lambda \in L \}$. We examine the question whether $\mathcal{E}_{\Lambda}$…
In a recent paper, Basu, Hildebrand, and Molinaro established that the set of continuous minimal functions for the 1-dimensional Gomory-Johnson infinite group relaxation possesses a dense subset of extreme functions. The $n$-dimensional…
We study a pseudo-differential equation driven by the degenerate fractional p-Laplacian, under Dirichlet type conditions in a smooth domain. First we show that the solution set within the order interval given by a sub-supersolution pair is…
The topological data of a group action on a compact Riemann surface is often encoded using a tuple $(h;m_1,\dots ,m_s)$ called its signature. There are two easily verifiable arithmetic conditions on a tuple necessary for it to be a…
We review properties of Bessel potentials, that is, inverse Fourier transforms of (regularizations of) $\frac{1}{(m^2+p^2)^{\frac{\mu}{2}}}$ on a pseudoEuclidean space with signature $(q,d-q)$. We are mostly interested in the Lorentzian…
In machine learning, we are given a dataset of the form $\{(\mathbf{x}_j,y_j)\}_{j=1}^M$, drawn as i.i.d. samples from an unknown probability distribution $\mu$; the marginal distribution for the $\mathbf{x}_j$'s being $\mu^*$. We propose…
In this work, we will expose new classification results concerning $\lambda_1$-extremality for partial flag manifolds using a sufficient and necessary condition, in terms of Lie theoretic data, for a K\"ahler-Einstein metric over a…
Let $\mu$ be a strong limit singular cardinal. We prove that if $2^{\mu} > \mu^+$ then $\binom{\mu^+}{\mu}\to \binom{\tau}{\mu}_{<{\rm cf}(\mu)}$ for every ordinal $\tau<\mu^+$. We obtain an optimal positive relation under $2^\mu = \mu^+$,…
We show that Hermite's approximations to values of the exponential function at given algebraic numbers are nearly optimal when considered from an adelic perspective. We achieve this by taking into account the ratio of these values whenever…

Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic number field and let $L(s,\xi_{\ell})$ denote the Hecke $L$-function to an angular character $\xi_{\ell}$ with frequency $\ell$. We detect values of $\log |L(\tfrac12,\xi_{\ell})|$ with size at least…
The process of identifying a Dirichlet-type space $D(\mu)$ for a positive, Borel measure $\mu$, supported on the unit circle $\mathbb T,$ with a de Branges-Rovnyak space was initiated by Sarason. A characterization of the symbol for a de…
