Let $\mathbb{H}$ be a Hilbert space, $E \subset \mathbb{H}$ be an arbitrary subset and $f: E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}, \: G: E \rightarrow \mathbb{H}$ be two functions. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the pair $(f,G)$ for the…

In this paper, we consider the non-singular extension problem for circle-valued Morse functions on closed orientable surfaces. The problem asks, given a circle-valued Morse function $f\colon M\to S^{1}$ on a closed orientable surface $M$,…

In 1973 J. C. Wells showed that a variant of the Whitney extension theorem holds for $C^{1,1}$-smooth real-valued functions on Hilbert spaces. In 2021 D. Azagra and C. Mudarra generalised this result to $C^{1,\omega}$-smooth functions on…

The spectral properties of non-self-adjoint extensions $A_{[B]}$ of a symmetric operator in a Hilbert space are studied with the help of ordinary and quasi boundary triples and the corresponding Weyl functions. These extensions are given in…

The classical lemma of Borel reads: any power series with real coefficients is the Taylor series of a smooth function. Algebraically this means the surjectivity of the completion map at a point, $C^\infty(\Bbb{R}^n) \twoheadrightarrow…

We consider complete non-compact manifolds with either a sub-quadratic growth of the norm of the Riemann curvature, or a sub-quadratic growth of both the norm of the Ricci curvature and the squared inverse of the injectivity radius. We show…

In 1934, H. Whitney introduced the problem of extending a function on a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^n$ to an analytic function on the ambient space. In this article we prove Whitney type extension theorems for data on some homogeneous…

We study the set of continuous functions that admit no spurious local optima (i.e. local minima that are not global minima) which we term \textit{global functions}. They satisfy various powerful properties for analyzing nonconvex and…

The Whitney extension theorem is a classical result in analysis giving a necessary and sufficient condition for a function defined on a closed set to be extendable to the whole space with a given class of regularity. It has been adapted to…

For an arbitrary set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, and functions $f:E \to \mathbb{R}$, $G: E\to \mathbb{R}^n$ with $G$ bounded, we construct $C^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ convex extensions $(F, \nabla F)$ of $(f,G)$ with the sharp Lipschitz constant $$…

Our paper is a complement to a recent article by D. Azagra and C. Mudarra (2021). We show how older results on semiconvex functions with modulus $\omega$ easily imply extension theorems for $C^{1,\omega}$-smooth functions on super-reflexive…

We study the local and global versions of the convexity, which is closely related to the problem of extending a convex function on a non-convex domain to a convex function on the convex hull of the domain and beyond the convex hull. We also…

The question of extension of locally defined maps to the entire space arises in many problems of analysis (e.g., local linearization of functional equations). A known classical method of extension of smooth local maps on Banach spaces uses…

Cartan's uniqueness theorem does not hold in general for CR mappings, but it does hold under certain conditions guaranteeing extendibility of CR functions to a fixed neighborhood. These conditions can be defined naturally for a wide class…

Slice analysis is a generalization of the theory of holomorphic functions of one complex variable to quaternions. Among the new phenomena which appear in this context, there is the fact that the convergence domain of…

The main result of this paper is a proof of the continuity of a family of integral functionals defined on the space of functions of bounded variation with respect to a topology under which smooth functions are dense. These functionals occur…

Let S be a generic C-infinity smooth CR manifold in C^n, n > 1, and let M be a generic C-infinity CR submanifold of S X C^m. We prescribe conditions on M so that it is the disjoint union of graphs of CR maps f:S-->C^m. We also consider the…

We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…

In a real Hilbert spaces H a smooth operator F is studied, whose derivative at each point of its domain is a symmetric operator. In terms of abstract boundary conditions locally self-adjoint extensions of this operator are described. We use…

We investigate the existence of weak expanding solutions of the harmonic map flow for maps with values into a smooth closed Riemannian manifold. We prove the existence of such solutions in case the target manifold is isometrically embedded…
