A property of smooth convex domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is that if two points on the boundary $x, y \in \partial \Omega$ are close to each other, then their normal vectors $n(x), n(y)$ point roughly in the same direction and this…

We are interested in the ``smoothest'' averaging that can be achieved by convolving functions $f \in \ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ with an averaging function $u$. More precisely, suppose $u:\{-n, \ldots, n\} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a symmetric function…
