Let g : $\Omega$ = [0, 1] d $\rightarrow$ R denote a Lipschitz function that can be evaluated at each point, but at the price of a heavy computational time. Let X stand for a random variable with values in $\Omega$ such that one is able to…

In the contest of optimal control problems, regularity results for optima are known when addressing fiber-strictly convex Lagrangian. For infinite time horizons, or for settings with infinite dimensional dynamics, the equivalence between…

We prove the existence of a (random) Lipschitz function $F : \Z^{d-1}\to\Z^+$ such that, for every $x \in \Z^{d-1}$, the site $(x,F(x))$ is open in a site percolation process on $\Z^{d}$. The Lipschitz constant may be taken to be 1 when the…

The notion of a descent polynomial, a function in enumerative combinatorics that counts permutations with specific properties, enjoys a revived recent research interest due to its connection with other important notions in combinatorics,…

Let $n, m$ be positive integers, $n\geq m$. We make several remarks on the relationship between approximate differentiability of higher order and Morse-Sard properties. For instance, among other things we show that if a function…

Let X_1 ,..., X_n be a collection of binary valued random variables and let f : {0,1}^n -> R be a Lipschitz function. Under a negative dependence hypothesis known as the {\em strong Rayleigh} condition, we show that f - E f satisfies a…

We consider local minimizers of the functional \[ \sum_{i=1}^N \int (|u_{x_i}|-\delta_i)^p_+\, dx+\int f\, u\, dx, \] where $\delta_1,\dots,\delta_N\ge 0$ and $(\,\cdot\,)_+$ stands for the positive part. Under suitable assumptions on $f$,…

We consider the problem of embedding one i.i.d.\ collection of Bernoulli random variables indexed by $\mathbb{Z}^d$ into an independent copy in an injective $M$-Lipschitz manner. For the case $d=1$, it was shown by Basu and Sly (PTRF, 2014)…

We study the space of bandlimited Lipschitz functions in one variable. In particular we provide a geometrical description of the natural interpolating and sampling sequences for this space. We also find a description of the trace of such…

We study the controllability of a Partial Differential Equation of transport type, that arises in crowd models. We are interested in controlling it with a control being a vector field, representing a perturbation of the velocity, localized…

Let $F:[0,T]\times\R^n\mapsto 2^{\R^n}$ be a continuous multifunction with compact, not necessarily convex values. In this paper, we prove that, if $F$ satisfies the following Lipschitz Selection Property: \begin{itemize} \item[{(LSP)}]…

We consider controllability for divergence-free systems that have a conserved quantity and satisfy a H\"ormander condition. It is shown that such systems are controllable, provided that the conserved quantity is a proper function. The proof…

We prove that a function in several variables is in the local Zygmund class $\mathcal Z^{m,1}$ if and only if its composite with every smooth curve is of class $\mathcal Z^{m,1}$. This complements the well-known analogous result for local…

We prove that for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$, a Banach space $(Z,\|\cdot\|_Z)$ and a $1$-Lipschitz function $f:S\to Z$ such that the Lipschitz constant of every function…

For a metric space $X$, we study the space $D^{\infty}(X)$ of bounded functions on $X$ whose infinitesimal Lipschitz constant is uniformly bounded. $D^{\infty}(X)$ is compared with the space $\LIP^{\infty}(X)$ of bounded Lipschitz functions…

We establish Lipschitz stability properties for a class of inverse problems. In that class, the associated direct problem is formulated by an integral operator Am depending non-linearly on a parameter m and operating on a function u. In the…

Various controllability conditions have been obtained by researchers for heterogeneous networked systems with linear dynamics. However, the literature for nonlinear, heterogeneous networked systems is comparatively less. In this paper we…

We investigate conditions of optimality for an infinite horizon control problem and consider their correspondence with the value function. Assuming Lipschitz continuity of the value function, we prove that sensitivity relations plus the…

To minimize or upper-bound the value of a function "robustly", we might instead minimize or upper-bound the "epsilon-robust regularization", defined as the map from a point to the maximum value of the function within an epsilon-radius. This…

The Ramsey Choice principle for families of $n$-element sets, denoted $\mathrm{RC}_n$, states that every infinite set $X$ has an infinite subset $Y\subseteq X$ with a choice function on $[Y]^n := \{z\subseteq Y : |z| = n\}$. We investigate…
