Opial's Lemma is a fundamental result in the convergence analysis of sequences generated by optimization algorithms in real Hilbert spaces. We introduce the concept of Opial sequences - sequences for which the limit of the distance to each…

Sequences diverge either because they head off to infinity or because they oscillate. Part 1 constructs a non-Archimedean framework of infinite numbers that is large enough to contain asymptotic limit points for non-oscillating sequences…

We consider an infinite-dimensional stochastic clustering model on $\mathbb{R}$. In discrete time, each point of a unit-intensity simple point process moves halfway toward either of its left or right neighbors, chosen uniformly at random.…

If $X$ is compact metrizable and has finite fd-height then the unit interval, $I$, $\ell$-dominates $X$, in other words, there is a continuous linear map of $C_p(I)$ onto $C_p(X)$. If the unit interval $\ell$-dominates a space $X$ then $X$…

A set $G \subseteq \omega$ is $n$-generic for a positive integer $n$ if and only if every $\Sigma^0_n$ formula of $G$ is decided by a finite initial segment of $G$ in the sense of Cohen forcing. It is shown here that every $n$-generic set…

We prove a number of results on the survival of the type-I property under extensions of locally compact groups: (a) that given a closed normal embedding $\mathbb{N}\trianglelefteq\mathbb{E}$ of locally compact groups and a twisted action…

The phenomenon of superconvergence is proved for all freely infinitely divisible distributions. Precisely, suppose that the partial sums of a sequence of free identically distributed, infinitesimal random variables converge in distribution…

In this note we use recent developments in sieve theory to highlight the interplay between Goldbach and de Polignac numbers. Assuming that the primes have level of distribution greater than $1/2$, we show that at least one of two nice…

Let $X,X_1,X_2,\ldots$ be i.i.d. mean zero random vectors with values in a separable Banach space $B$, $S_n=X_1+\cdots+X_n$ for $n\ge1$, and assume $\{c_n:n\ge1\}$ is a suitably regular sequence of constants. Furthermore, let…

In this note we prove that for every sequence $(m_q)_{q}$ of positive integers and for every real $0<\delta\leqslant1$ there is a sequence $(n_q)_{q}$ of positive integers such that for every sequence $(H_q)_{q}$ of finite sets such that…

For a nontrivial measurable set on the real line, there are always exceptional points, where the lower and upper densities of the set are neither zero nor one. We quantify this statement, following work by V. Kolyada, and obtain the…

For which groups G is it true that whenever we form a direct limit of G-sets, dirlim_{i\in I} X_i, the set of its fixed points, (dirlim_I X_i)^G, can be obtained as the direct limit dirlim_I(X_i^G) of the fixed point sets of the given…

The Generalized Central Limit Theorem is a remarkable generalization of the Central Limit Theorem, showing that the sum of a large number of independent, identically-distributed (i.i.d) random variables with infinite variance may converge…

The Mycielski ideal M_k is defined to consist of all sets A subseteq k^omega such that {f restriction X: f in A} not= k^X for all X in [omega]^{aleph_0}. It will be shown that the covering numbers for these ideals are all equal. However,…

Let $\mathcal{O}_K$ be the ring of integers of an algebraic number field $K$ embedded into $\mathbb{C}$. Let $X$ be a subset of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, and $D(X)$ be the set of the squared distances of two distinct points in…

A symmetric subset of the reals is one that remains invariant under some reflection z --> c-z. We consider, for any 0 < x <= 1, the largest real number D(x) such that every subset of $[0,1]$ with measure greater than x contains a symmetric…

In this paper, we consider representations of integers as sums of generalized heptagonal numbers with a prescribed number of repeats of each heptagonal number appearing in the sum. In particular, we investigate the classification of such…

The generalized test ideals introduced in [HY] are related to multiplier ideals via reduction to characteristic p. In addition, they satisfy many of the subtle properties of the multiplier ideals, which in characteristic zero follow via…

Cai and Hemachandra used iterative constant-setting to prove that Few $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P (and thus that FewP $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P). In this paper, we note that there is a tension between the nondeterministic ambiguity of the class one…

Let $(a_n)_{n=0}^\infty$ be a second-order linear recurrence sequence with constant coefficients over the field of $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We study the set of limit points of the sequence of consecutive ratios…
