We discuss removability problems concerning differentiability and pointwise Lipschitz conditions for functions of a real variable. We prove that, in each of the settings under consideration, a set is removable if and only if it has no…

Let $X$ be a separable Banach space with a separating polynomial. We show that there exists $C\geq 1$ (depending only on $X$) such that for every Lipschitz function $f:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, and every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a…

We explore the question whether Lipschitz functions of random variables under various forms of negative correlation satisfy concentration bounds similar to McDiarmid's inequality for independent random variables. We prove such a…

This paper studies the differentiability of the value function of switched linear systems under arbitrary switching and controlled switching, referred to as worst-case and optimal value functions respectively. First, we show that the value…

Let $\mu$ be a Borel probability measure on a compact path-connected metric space $(X, \rho)$ for which there exist constants $c,\beta>1$ such that $\mu(B) \geq c r^{\beta}$ for every open ball $B\subset X$ of radius $r>0$. For a class of…

Based on the Goldbach conjecture and arithmetic fundamental theorem, the Goldbach conjecture was extended to more general situations, i.e., any positive integer can be written as summation of some specific prime numbers, which depends on…

We study controllability of a Partial Differential Equation of transport type, that arises in crowd models. We are interested in controlling such system with a control being a Lipschitz vector field on a fixed control set $\omega$. We prove…

We consider a control problem where the state must reach asymptotically a target while paying an integral payoff with a non-negative Lagrangian. The dynamics is just continuous, and no assumptions are made on the zero level set of the…

We study the controlled dynamics of the {\it ensembles of points} of a Riemannian manifold $M$. Parameterized ensemble of points of $M$ is the image of a continuous map $\gamma:\Theta \to M$, where $\Theta$ is a compact set of parameters.…

This paper is devoted to the study of the null and approximate controllability for some classes of linear coupled parabolic systems with less controls than equations. More precisely, for a given bounded domain in R^N, we consider a system…

We study the optimal value function for control problems on Banach spaces that involve both continuous and discrete control decisions. For problems involving semilinear dynamics subject to mixed control inequality constraints, one can show…

We consider the Lagrange problem of optimal control with unrestricted controls and address the question: under what conditions we can assure optimal controls are bounded? This question is related to the one of Lipschitzian regularity of…

We study properties of ridge functions $f(x)=g(a\cdot x)$ in high dimensions $d$ from the viewpoint of approximation theory. The considered function classes consist of ridge functions such that the profile $g$ is a member of a univariate…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a difference of convex (DC, for short) functions, defined on a locally convex space, to be Lipschitz continuous. Our criterion relies on the intersections of the "epsilon-subdifferentials of…

We show that if n>1 then there exists a Lebesgue null set in R^n containing a point of differentiability of each Lipschitz function mapping from R^n to R^(n-1); in combination with the work of others, this completes the investigation of…

We obtain a criterion for an analytic subset of a Euclidean space to contain points of differentiability of a typical Lipschitz function, namely, that it cannot be covered by countably many sets, each of which is closed and purely…

Control invariant sets play an important role in safety-critical control and find broad application in numerous fields such as obstacle avoidance for mobile robots. However, finding valid control invariant sets of dynamical systems under…

In the article the necessary and sufficient conditions for a representation of Lipschitz function of more than two variables as a difference of two convex functions are formulated. An algorithm of this representation is given. The outcome…

Let $C({\mathbb R}^n)$ denote the set of real valued continuous functions defined on ${\mathbb R}^n$. We prove that for every $n\ge 2$ there are positive numbers $\lambda _1 , \ldots , \lambda _n$ and continuous functions $\phi_1 ,\ldots ,…
