This paper examines various aspects related to the Cauchy functional equation $f(x+y)=f(x)+f(y)$, a fundamental equation in the theory of functional equations. In particular, it considers its solvability and its stability relative to…
We show that alpha stable L\'evy motions can be simulated by any ergodic and aperiodic probability preserving transformation. Namely we show: - for $0<\alpha<1$ and every $\alpha$ stable L\'evy motion $\mathbb{W}$, there exists a function f…
Distributions of strictly positive numbers are common and can be characterized by standard statistical measures such as mean, standard deviation, and skewness. We demonstrate that for these distributions the skewness $D_3$ is bounded from…
We consider the Cauchy problem of fractional pseudo-parabolic equation on the whole space $R^n,n\geq 1$. Here, the fractional order $\alpha$ is related to the diffusion-type source term behaving as the usual diffusion term on the high…
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 ,…
Let $U$ be an open set in $\mathbb{R}^d$. A continuous function $f\colon U \to \mathbb{R}$ is strongly nowhere differentiable if and only if for each $\gamma\in(0,1]$ and for each unit speed $C^{1,\gamma}$ curve $c\colon [a,b] \to U$, the…
The aim of this expository article is to present recent developments in the centuries old discussion on the interrelations between continuous and differentiable real valued functions of one real variable. The truly new results include,…
A new continuity for set-valued functions is introduced, and an existence theorem is proved for such continuous set-valued functions.
We extend Fano's inequality, which controls the average probability of events in terms of the average of some $f$--divergences, to work with arbitrary events (not necessarily forming a partition) and even with arbitrary $[0,1]$--valued…
The spectrum and coherency are useful quantities for characterizing the temporal correlations and functional relations within and between point processes. This paper begins with a review of these quantities, their interpretation and how…
Unimodal univariate distributions can be characterized as piecewise convex-concave cumulative distribution functions. In this note we transfer this shape constraint characterization to the quantile function. We show that this…
A metric space $\mathbf{X}$ is called densely complete if there exists a dense set $D$ in $\mathbf{X}$ such that every Cauchy sequence of points of $D $ converges in $\mathbf{X}$. One of the main aims of this work is to prove that the…
Let $\epsilon_{1},\ldots,\epsilon_{n}$ be a sequence of independent Rademacher random variables. We prove that there is a constant $c>0$ such that for any unit vectors $v_1,\ldots,v_n\in \mathbb{R}^2$, $$\Pr\left[||\epsilon_1…
A function is called quasiperiodic if its fundamental frequencies are linearly independent over the rationals. With appropriate parameters, the sliding window point clouds of such functions can be shown to be dense in tori with dimension…
This paper is devoted to the convergence analysis of stochastic approximation algorithms of the form $\theta\_{n+1} = \theta\_n + \gamma\_{n+1} H\_{\theta\_n}(X\_{n+1})$ where $\{\theta\_nn, n \geq 0\}$ is a $R^d$-valued sequence,…
We prove that for a continuum $K\subset \mathbb R^n$ the sum $K^{+n}$ of $n$ copies of $K$ has non-empty interior in $\mathbb R^n$ if and only if $K$ is not flat in the sense that the affine hull of $K$ coincides with $\mathbb R^n$.…
We propose skewed stable random projections for approximating the pth frequency moments of dynamic data streams (0<p<=2), which has been frequently studied in theoretical computer science and database communities. Our method significantly…
In many modern applications, discretely-observed data may be naturally understood as a set of functions. Functional data often exhibit two confounded sources of variability: amplitude (y-axis) and phase (x-axis). The extraction of amplitude…
We consider a quasi-variational inequality governed by a moving set. We employ the assumption that the movement of the set has a small Lipschitz constant. Under this requirement, we show that the quasi-variational inequality has a unique…
We establish the following universality property in high dimensions: Let $X$ be a random vector with density in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The density function can be arbitrary. We show that there exists a fixed unit vector $\theta \in \mathbb{R}^n$…
