Questions concerning small fractional parts of polynomials and pseudo-polynomials have a long history in analytic number theory. In this paper, we improve on earlier work by Madritsch and Tichy. In particular, let $f=P+\phi$ where $P$ is a…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for non-local functionals on vector-valued Lebesgue spaces to be weakly sequentially lower semi-continuous. Here a non-local functional shall have the form of a double integral of a density which…

The Dehn function measures the area of minimal discs that fill closed curves in a space; it is an important invariant in analysis, geometry, and geometric group theory. There are several equivalent ways to define the Dehn function, varying…

A well known result of H. Attouch states that the Mosco convergence of a sequence of proper convex lower semicontinuous functions defined on a Hilbert space is equivalent to the pointwise convergence of the associated Moreau envelopes. In…

Let $\{H_{n,m}\}_{n,m\in \mathbb{N}}$ be the two dimensional Haar system and $S_{n,m}f$ be the rectangular partial sums of its Fourier series with respect to some $f\in L^1([0,1)^2)$. Let $\mathcal{N}, \mathcal{M}\subset \mathbb{N}$ be two…

The aim of this paper is to introduce the $H^\infty$-functional calculus for harmonic functions over the quaternions. More precisely, we give meaning to Df(T) for unbounded sectorial operators T and polynomially growing functions of the…

We derive a semiclassical trace formula for a symmetry reduced part of the spectrum in axially symmetric systems. The classical orbits that contribute are closed in (\rho,z,p_\rho,p_z) and have p_\phi = m\hbar where m is the azimuthal…

Let $f:X\to X$ be a continuous map on a compact metric space with finite topological entropy. Further, we assume that the entropy map $\mu\mapsto h_\mu(f)$ is upper semi-continuous. It is well-known that this implies the continuity of the…

The aim of this work is to certify lower bounds for real-valued multivariate functions, defined by semialgebraic or transcendental expressions. The certificate must be, eventually, formally provable in a proof system such as Coq. The…

We introduce here a natural functional associated to any $b \in QH_* (M, \omega)$: \emph{spectral length functional}, on the space of "generalized paths" in $ \text {Ham}(M, \omega)$, closely related to both the Hofer length functional and…

We use sup-convolution to find upper approximations of a bounded $m$-subharmonic function on a compact K\"ahler manifold with nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature. As an application, we show the H\"older continuity of solutions to…

A function $f:\ \{-1,1\}^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is called pseudo-Boolean. It is well-known that each pseudo-Boolean function $f$ can be written as $f(x)=\sum_{I\in {\cal F}}\hat{f}(I)\chi_I(x),$ where ${\cal F}\subseteq \{I:\ I\subseteq…

We study curvature functionals for immersed 2-spheres in non-compact, three-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,h)$ without boundary. First, under the assumption that $(M,h)$ is the euclidean 3-space endowed with a semi-perturbed metric…

We study semifinite harmonic functions on the zigzag graph, which corresponds to Pieri's rule for the fundamental quasisymmetric functions $\{F_{\lambda}\}$. The main problem, which we solve here, is to classify the indecomposable…

We prove that the upper envelope of a family of subharmonic functions defined on an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, $(N\geq2)$, that is finite every where, is locally bounded above outside a closed nowhere dense set with no bounded…

Let $D$ be a convex subset of a real vector space. It is shown that a radially lower semicontinuous function $f: D\to \mathbf{R}\cup \{+\infty\}$ is convex if and only if for all $x,y \in D$ there exists $\alpha=\alpha(x,y) \in (0,1)$ such…

The main theme of this paper is a relative version of the almost existence theorem for periodic orbits of autonomous Hamiltonian systems. We show that almost all low levels of a function on a geometrically bounded symplectically aspherical…

We characterize general pseudo-harmonic morphisms from a Riemannian manifold to a Hermitian manifold as pseudo horizontally weakly conformal maps with an additional property. We study to what extent we can (locally) describe these…

Pseudo-holomorphic curves on almost complex manifolds have been much more intensely studied than their "dual" objects, the plurisubharmonic functions. These functions are defined classically by requiring that the restriction to each…

We study the integration problem on Hilbert spaces of (multivariate) periodic functions. The standard technique to prove lower bounds for the error of quadrature rules uses bump functions and the pigeon hole principle. Recently, several new…
