In contrast to the usual Lipschitz seminorms associated to ordinary metrics on compact spaces, we show by examples that Lipschitz seminorms on possibly non-commutative compact spaces are usually not determined by the restriction of the…

We establish Luzin $N$ and Morse-Sard properties for $BV_2$-functions defined on open domains in the plane. Using these results we prove that almost all level sets are finite disjoint unions of Lipschitz arcs whose tangent vectors are of…

In this paper, we provide a new means of establishing solvability of the Dirichlet problem on Lipschitz domains, with measurable data, for second order elliptic, non-symmetric divergence form operators. We show that a certain optimal…

We establish analogs of Cheeger's inequality for probability measures with heavy tails. As one of the principal applications, suppose $\lambda > 3$ and define the (Pareto) probability measure $\mu_{\lambda}$ on $[1,\infty)$ by…

We define a random step size tug-of-war game, and show that the gradient of a value function exists almost everywhere. We also prove that the gradients of value functions are uniformly bounded and converge weakly to the gradient of the…

On any metric space, I provide an intrinsic characterization of those complex-valued functions which are uniform limits of Lipschitz functions. There are applications to function theory on complete Riemannian manifolds and, in particular,…

For an integer $n \ge 3$ and any positive number $\epsilon$ we establish the existence of smooth functions K on $R^n \setminus \{0 \}$ with $|K - 1| \le \epsilon$, such that the equation $\Delta u + n (n - 2) K u^{{n + 2}\over {n - 2}} = 0$…

Let $(M,g)$ be a complete three dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary $\partial M$. Given smooth functions $K(x)>0$ and $c(x)$ defined on $M$ and $\partial M$, respectively, it is natural to ask whether there exist metrics conformal…

We study the existence of tangent lines, i.e. subsets of the tangent space isometric to the real line, in tangent spaces of metric spaces. We first revisit the almost everywhere metric differentiability of Lipschitz continuous curves. We…

We introduce the Takagi--van der Waerden function with parameters $a{>}b{>}0$ by setting $f_{a,b}(x)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty b^n d\big(x,S_n\big)$, where $S_n$ is a maximal $\frac1{a^n}$-separated set in a metric space $X$. So, if…

When perfectly conducting or insulating inclusions are closely located, stress which is the gradient of the solution to the conductivity equation can be arbitrarily large as the distance between two inclusions tends to zero. It is important…

In this paper we prove the fundamental lemma for Deligne-Lusztig functions. Namely, for every Deligne-Lusztig function $\phi$ on a $p$-adic group $G$ we write down an explicit linear combination $\phi^H$ of Deligne-Lusztig functions on an…

The classical Mountain Pass Lemma of Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz has been studied, extended and modified in several directions, notable examples would certainly include the generalization to locally Lipschitz functionals in K.C. Chang, analysis…

We construct a H\"older continuous function on the unit interval which coincides in uncountably (in fact continuum) many points with every function of total variation smaller than 1 passing through the origin. We say that a function with…

We prove a Lusin approximation of functions of bounded variation. If $f$ is a function of bounded variation on an open set $\Omega\subset X$, where $X=(X,d,\mu)$ is a given complete doubling metric measure space supporting a $1$-Poincar\'e…

We provide the details of the first proof in~\cite{CJS89}, which proved that Cauchy transform of $L^2$~functions on Lipschitz curves is bounded. We then prove that every $L^2$~function on Lipschitz curves is the sum of non-tangential…

We prove the first convergence guarantees for a subgradient method minimizing a generic Lipschitz function over generic Lipschitz inequality constraints. No smoothness or convexity (or weak convexity) assumptions are made. Instead, we…

We consider decompositions of processes of the form $Y=f(t,X_t)$ where $X$ is a semimartingale. The function $f$ is not required to be differentiable, so It\^{o}'s lemma does not apply. In the case where $f(t,x)$ is independent of $t$, it…

We prove that every locally finite vertex-transitive graph $G$ admits a non-constant Lipschitz harmonic function.

We introduce the generalized notion of semicontinuity of a function defined on a topological space and derive the useful classification of the so-called Lipschitz derivatives of functions defined on a metric space. Secondly, we investigate…
