In probabilistic coherence spaces, a denotational model of probabilistic functional languages, mor-phisms are analytic and therefore smooth. We explore two related applications of the corresponding derivatives. First we show how derivatives…

In Persistent Homology and Topology, filtrations are usually given by introducing an ordered collection of sets or a continuous function from a topological space to $\R^n$. A natural question arises, whether these approaches are equivalent…

The goal of this note is to give, at least for a restricted range of indices, a short proof of homogeneous commutator estimates for fractional derivatives of a product, using classical tools. Both $L^{p}$ and weighted $L^{p}$ estimates can…
