A holomorphic function $f$ on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ belongs to the class $\mathcal{U}_A(\mathbb{D})$ of Abel universal functions if the family $\{f_r: 0\leq r<1\}$ of its dilates $f_r(z):=f(rz)$ is dense in the space of continuous…
Previously, we have investigated a natural smooth map onto the region surrounded by the graphs of two smooth real-valued functions in the plane converging to a same value or diverges to $+\infty$ or $-\infty$ simultaneously, at each…
We prove that, if f:R^n\to R satisfies Fr\'echet's functional equation and f(x_1,...,x_n) is not an ordinary algebraic polynomial in the variables x_1,...,x_n, then f is unbounded on all non-empty open set U of R^n. Furthermore, the closure…
Let Y be an infinite covering space of a projective manifold M in P^N of dimension n geq 2. Let C be the intersection with M of at most n-1 generic hypersurfaces of degree d in P^N. The preimage X of C in Y is a connected submanifold. Let…
We prove that every smooth closed manifold admits a smooth real-valued function with only two critical values. We call a function of this type a \emph{Reeb function}. We prove that for a Reeb function we can prescribe the set of minima (or…
In this note, we continue to highlight some applications of Theorem 1 of [3]. Here is a sample: Let $X$ be an open set in ${\bf C}^n$, $\Omega$ an open convex set in ${\bf C}$ and $f, g : X\to {\bf C}$ two holomorphic functions such that…
Let us consider a Riemannian manifold $M$ (either separable or non-separable). We prove that, for every $\epsilon>0$, every Lipschitz function $f:M\rightarrow\mathbb R$ can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, $C^1$-smooth function $g$…
We show that on a compact Riemmanian manifold $(M,g)$, nodal sets of linear combinations of any $p+1$ smooth functions form an admissible $p-$sweepout provided these linear combinations have uniformly bounded vanishing order. This applies…
We show that norms on certain Banach spaces $X$ can be approximated uniformly, and with arbitrary precision, on bounded subsets of $X$ by $C^{\infty}$ smooth norms and polyhedral norms. In particular, we show that this holds for any…
We prove that smooth $C^\infty$ functions are dense in weighted fractional Sobolev spaces on an arbitrary open set, under some mild conditions on the weight. We also obtain a~similar result in non-weighted spaces defined by some kernel…
Let $X, Y$ be two complex manifolds, let $D\subset X,$ $ G\subset Y$ be two nonempty open sets, let $A$ (resp. $B$) be an open subset of $\partial D$ (resp. $\partial G$), and let $W$ be the 2-fold cross $((D\cup A)\times B)\cup…
The Reeb space of a smooth function is a topological and combinatoric object and fundamental and important in understanding topological and geometric properties of the manifold of the domain. It is the graph and a topological space endowed…
Local boundary smoothness of an analytic function f on the unit ball of C^n is compared to the smoothness of its modulus. We prove that different conditions imposed on the zeros of f imply different drops of the smoothness. We also show…
Let $E$ be an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space. We show that for every $C^1$ function $f:E\to\mathbb{R}^d$, every open set $U$ with $C_f:=\{x\in E:\,Df(x)\; \text{is not surjective}\}\subset U$ and every continuous function…
For a subfield K of C, we denote by C^K the category of algebras of functions defined on the globally subanalytic sets that are generated by all K-powers and logarithms of positively-valued globally subanalytic functions. For any function f…
In this paper, we show that for a broad class of pseudoconvex formal-analytic arithmetic surfaces over $\text{Spec}(\mathbb{Z})$, those which admit a nonconstant monic such regular function, that a conjecture of Bost-Charles that the ring…
If a smooth function of one variable has maximum one on the unit interval, and has there $d$ zeroes, then its $(d+1)$-st derivative must be "big". This is one of the simplest examples of what we call "smooth rigidity": certain geometric…
We construct examples of $C^\infty$ smooth submanifolds in ${\Bbb C}^n$ and ${\Bbb R}^n$ of codimension 2 and 1, which intersect every complex, respectively real, analytic curve in a discrete set. The examples are realized either as compact…
Let $X_1,\dots, X_n$ be i.i.d. random variables sampled from a normal distribution $N(\mu,\Sigma)$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$ with unknown parameter $\theta=(\mu,\Sigma)\in \Theta:={\mathbb R}^d\times {\mathcal C}_+^d,$ where ${\mathcal C}_+^d$ is…
The classical Theorem of Mumford states that a topologically regular complex algebraic surface in $\mathbb{C}^3$ with an isolated singular point is smooth. We proof that any Lipschitz regular complex algebraic set is smooth. No restriction…
