It is consistent that there is a partial order (P,<) of size aleph_1 such that every monotone (unary) function from P to P is first order definable in (P,<). The partial order is constructed in an extension obtained by finite support…

In this paper, we consider the Halpern iteration scheme for a finite family of quasinonexpansive mappings and then prove a strong convergence theorem to their common fixed point in a complete geodesic space with curvature bounded above by…

In this paper we introduce the iterations $\phi^k_1(t)$ of the Jacob's ladder. It is proved, for example, that the mean-value of the product $$Z^2[\phi^n_1(t)]Z^2[\phi^{n-1}(t)]... Z^2[\phi^0_1(t)]$$ over the segment $[T,T+U]$ is…

We consider the convexity properties of distortion functionals, particularly the linear distortion, defined for homeomorphisms of domains in Euclidean $n$-spaces, $n\geq 3$. The inner and outer distortion functionals are lower…

We study the attractor of Iterated Function Systems composed of infinitely many affine, homogeneous maps. In the special case of second generation IFS, defined herein, we conjecture that the attractor consists of a finite number of…

For a real c\`adl\`ag path $x$ we define sequence of semi-explicit quantities, which do not depend on any partitions and such that whenever $x$ is a path of a c\`adl\`ag semimartingale then these quantities tend a.s. to the continuous part…

A certain class of matrix-valued Borel matrix functions is introduced and it is shown that all functions of that class naturally operate on any operator T in a finite type I von Neumann algebra M in a way such that uniformly bounded…

We consider the map X defined on the rational numbers given by x --> x * ceil(x), where ceil(x) denotes the smallest integer greater than or equal to x, and study the problem of finding, for each rational, the smallest number of iterations…

We introduce the concept of quasi-Lov\'asz extension as being a mapping $f\colon I^n\to\R$ defined on a nonempty real interval $I$ containing the origin and which can be factorized as $f(x_1,...,x_n)=L(\phi(x_1),...,\phi(x_n))$, where $L$…

By definition, a first return is the immediate moment that a path, using vectors in the Cartesian plane, touches the $x$-axis after leaving it previously from a given point; the initial point is often the origin. In this case, using certain…

We study several-matrix models and show that when the potential is convex and a small perturbation of the Gaussian potential, the first order correction to the free energy can be expressed as a generating function for the enumeration of…

In this paper, we establish the exact Fourier dimensions of all standard sub-critical Gaussian multiplicative chaos on the unit interval, thereby confirming the Garban-Vargas conjecture. The proof relies on a significant improvement of the…

A result of P\'olya states that every sequence of quadrature formulas $Q_n(f)$ with $n$ nodes and positive numbers converges to the integral $I(f)$ of a continuous function $f$ provided $Q_n(f)=I(f)$ for a space of algebraic polynomials of…

We consider a Markov chain X_1, X_2, ..., X_n belonging to a class of iterated random functions, which is "one-step contracting" with respect to some distance d. If f is any separately Lipschitz function with respect to d, we use a well…

Let $f\colon \mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ be a continuous and strictly monotone function. In the main result of this paper, we show that, for a fixed $n\geq 2$, the $n$-variable mean $\mathscr{A}_f \colon \mathbb{R}_+^n \to \mathbb{R}_+$…

It is common in functional data analysis to look at a set of related functions: a set of learning curves, a set of brain signals, a set of spatial maps, etc. One way to express relatedness is through an additive model, whereby each…

We examine several characteristics of conformal maps that resemble the variance of a Gaussian: asymptotic variance, the constant in Makarov's law of iterated logarithm and the second derivative of the integral means spectrum at the origin.…

We will prove that in a family of quasi-arithmetic means sattisfying certain smoothness assumption (embed with a naural pointwise ordering) every finite family has both supremum and infimum, which is also a quasi-arithmetic mean sattisfying…

This short note shows that the recently proposed generating function for loop hafnians -- originally derived using quantum-optical methods for a restricted class of matrices -- is in fact valid for arbitrary symmetric matrices. The proof…

Let $\alpha_1, \ldots, \alpha_m$ be two or more positive reals with sum $1$, let $C\subseteq \mathbb{R}^k$ be an open convex set, and $f: C\to \mathbb{R}^k$ be a continuous injection with convex image. For each nonempty set $S\subseteq C$,…
