We show that the Hankel transform of a general monotone function converges uniformly if and only if the limit function is bounded. To this end, we rely on an Abel-Olivier test for real-valued functions. Analogous results for cosine series…

It is well-known that the functions $f \in L^1(\mathbb{R}^d)$ whose translates along a lattice $\Lambda$ form a tiling, can be completely characterized in terms of the zero set of their Fourier transform. We construct an example of a…

For $\mu>\beta>0$, the generalized Stieltjes operators $$ \mathcal{S}_{\beta,\mu} f(t):={t^{\mu-\beta}}\int_0^\infty {s^{\beta-1}\over (s+t)^{\mu}}f(s)ds, \qquad t>0, $$ defined on Sobolev spaces $\mathcal{T}_p^{(\alpha)}(t^\alpha)$ (where…

Given any infinite tree in the plane satisfying certain topological conditions, we construct an entire function $f$ with only two critical values $\pm 1$ and no asymptotic values such that $f^{-1}([-1,1])$ is ambiently homeomorphic to the…

In this paper, we study completete monotonicity properties of the function $f_{a,k}(x)=\psi^{(k)}(x+a) - \psi^{(k)}(x) - \frac{ak!}{x^{k+1}}$, where $a\in(0,1)$ and $k\in \mathbb{N}_0$. Specifically, we consider the cases for $k\in \{ 2n:…

In the paper, necessary and sufficient conditions are presented for a function involving a ratio of gamma functions to be logarithmically completely monotonic. This extends and generalizes the main result in [\emph{Inequalities and…

Let $\alpha:[0,1]\to [0,1]$ be a measurable function. It was proved by P. Marchal \cite{Mar15} that the function $$ \phi^{(\alpha)}(\lambda):=\exp\left[ \int_0^1\frac{\lambda-1}{1+(\lambda-1)x}\,\alpha(x)\,d x \right],\quad \lambda>0 $$ is…

By using Cauchy integral formula in the theory of complex functions, the authors establish some integral representations for the principal branches of several complex functions involving the logarithmic function, find some properties, such…

Benjamini, Kalai and Schramm showed that a monotone function $f : \{-1,1\}^n \to \{-1,1\}$ is noise stable if and only if it is correlated with a half-space (a set of the form $\{x: \langle x, a\rangle \le b\}$). We study noise stability in…

We prove a version of both Jacobi's and Montel's Theorems for the case of continuous functions defined over the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. In particular, we prove that, if \[ \Delta_{h_0}^{m+1}f(x)=0 \ \ \text{for all}…

Let $f$ be a measurable, real function defined in a neighbourhood of infinity. The function $f$ is said to be of generalised regular variation if there exist functions $h \not\equiv 0$ and $g > 0$ such that $f(xt) - f(t) = h(x) g(t) +…

The generalised Gegenbauer functions of fractional degree (GGF-Fs), denoted by ${}^{r\!}G^{(\lambda)}_\nu(x)$ (right GGF-Fs) and ${}^{l}G^{(\lambda)}_\nu(x)$ (left GGF-Fs) with $x\in (-1,1),$ $\lambda>-1/2$ and real $\nu\ge 0,$ are special…

In this paper, we study the learnability of the Boolean class of $d$-monotone functions $f:{\cal X}\to\{0,1\}$ from membership and equivalence queries, where $({\cal X},\le)$ is a finite lattice. We show that the class of $d$-monotone…

A metric space (X,d) is monotone if there is a linear order < on X and a constant c>0 such that d(x,y) < c d(x,z) for all x<y<z in X. Properties of continuous functions with monotone graph (considered as a planar set) are investigated. It…

The Stieltjes coefficients $\gamma_k(a)$ arise in the expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$ about its single simple pole at $s=1$ and are of fundamental and long-standing importance in analytic number theory and other…

We study the number of queries needed to identify a monotone Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}$. A query consists of a 0-1-sequence, and the answer is the value of $f$ on that sequence. It is well-known that the number of…

Let $(M,g)$ be a $n-$dimensional, compact Riemannian manifold. We define the frequency scale $\lambda$ of a function $f \in C^{0}(M)$ as the largest number such that $\left\langle f, \phi_k \right\rangle =0$ for all Laplacian eigenfunctions…

We consider the untyped lambda calculus with constructors and recursively defined constants. We construct a domain-theoretic model such that any term not denoting bottom is strongly normalising provided all its `stratified approximations'…

Let $[q] = \{0,1,\ldots,q-1\}$, let $\Delta[q]$ denote the simplex of probability measures on $[q]$, and let $\gamma$ denote the Lebesgue measure normalized on $\Delta[q]$. We prove that for any symmetric monotone function $f \colon[q]^n…

We introduce a multivariate Markov transform which generalizes the well-known one-dimensional Stieltjes transform from the Moment problem and Spectral theory. Our main result states that two measures {\mu} and {\nu} with bounded support…
