In the context of general Banach spaces characterizations for the maximal monotonicity of operators with non-empty domain interior as well as stronger continuity properties for such operators are provided.

We analyze the notions of monotonicity and complete monotonicity for Markov Chains in continuous-time, taking values in a finite partially ordered set. Similarly to what happens in discrete-time, the two notions are not equivalent. However,…

In this paper we focus on providing sufficient conditions for some well-known stochastic orders in reliability but dealing with the discrete versions of them, filling a gap in the literature. In particular, we find conditions based on the…

We offer an alternative and shorter proof to a result by Jan J.Ub{\o}e about monotonicity properties of a one-dimensional function that appeared in the Mathematical Intelligencer in 2015. Our proof is based on reducing the problem to…

In many classification tasks there is a requirement of monotonicity. Concretely, if all else remains constant, increasing (resp. decreasing) the value of one or more features must not decrease (resp. increase) the value of the prediction.…

Compounding submodular monotone (i.e. 2-alternating) set functions on a finite set preserves this property, as shown in 2010. A natural generalization to k-alternating functions was presented in 2018, however hardly readable because of page…

We study the behaviour of the constant that is provided in the articles [12] and [13], which is connected with the determination of the Bellman function of three integral variables of the dyadic maximal operator. More precisely we study the…

For any fixed irrational frequency and trigonometric-polynomial potential, we show that every type I energy with positive Lyapunov exponent that satisfies the gap-labelling condition is a boundary of an open spectral gap. As a corollary,…

Making use of the method of subordination chains, we obtain some sufficient conditions for the univalence of an integral operator. In particular, as special cases, our results imply certain known univalence criteria. A refinement to a…
