The necessary multiplier conditions for Laguerre expansions derived in Gasper and Trebels \cite{laguerre} are supplemented and modified. This allows us to place Markett's Cohen type inequality \cite{cohen} (up to the $\log $--case) in the…

Given CW complexes X and Y, let map(X,Y) denote the space of continuous functions from X to Y with the compact open topology. The space map(X,Y) need not have the homotopy type of a CW complex. Here the results of an extensive investigation…

We describe a general expansion of spherical (full-sky) bispectra into a set of orthogonal modes. For squeezed shapes, the basis separates physically-distinct signals and is dominated by the lowest moments. In terms of reduced bispectra, we…

Given a negatively curved compact Riemannian surface $X$, we give an explicit estimate, valid with high probability as the degree goes to infinity, of the first non-trivial eigenvalue of the Laplacian on random Riemannian covers of $X$. The…

Based on properties of the universal R-matrix, we derive universal Baxter TQ-relations for quantum integrable systems with (diagonal) open boundaries associated with $U_{q}(\widehat{sl_{2}})$. The Baxter TQ-relations for the open XXZ-spin…

The Cheeger constant of an open set of the Euclidean space is defined by minimizing the ratio "perimeter over volume", among all its smooth compactly contained subsets. We consider a natural variant of this problem, where the volume of…
