We study a.e. convergence on $L^p$, and Lorentz spaces $L^{p,q}$, $p>\tfrac{2d}{d-1}$, for variants of Riesz means at the critical index $d(\tfrac 12-\tfrac 1p)-\tfrac12$. We derive more general results for (quasi-)radial Fourier…

In this paper we maximize a class of functionals under certain constraints. We find sufficient and necessary conditions for these maximizers to exist and be unique. Moreover, we characterize them and discuss the optimality of our results by…
The optimal $L^p \to L^q$ mapping properties for the (local) helical maximal function are obtained, except for endpoints. The proof relies on tools from multilinear harmonic analysis and, in particular, a localised version of the…
We study the problem of maximizing a monotone submodular set function subject to linear packing constraints. An instance of this problem consists of a matrix $A \in [0,1]^{m \times n}$, a vector $b \in [1,\infty)^m$, and a monotone…
We investigate the $L^p$ mapping properties of maximal functions associated with analytic hypersurfaces in $\mathbb R^d$, with a particular emphasis on the role of transversality. Around points that are not transversal, we show that the…
Optimal control theory is a powerful tool for improving figures of merit in quantum information tasks. Finding the solution to any optimal control problem via numerical optimization depends crucially on the choice of the optimization…
We show that the recent breakthrough result of [Buchbinder and Feldman, FOCS'24] could further lead to a deterministic $(1-\kappa_{f}/e-\varepsilon)$-approximate algorithm for maximizing a submodular function with curvature $\kappa_{f}$…
We study the boundedness problem for maximal operators $\mathbb{M}$ associated to averages along families of finite type curves in the plane, defined by $$\mathbb{M}f(x) \, := \, \sup_{1 \leq t \leq 2} \left|\int_{\mathbb{C}} f(x-ty) \,…
Among the class of functions with Fourier modes up to degree 30, constant functions are the unique real-valued maximizers for the endpoint Tomas-Stein inequality on the circle.
Convolution with an appropriate surface measure on a paraboloid is known to define a bounded operator T from L^p(R^d) to L^q(R^d) for certain exponents p,q. By a quasiextremal for the associated inequality, we mean a function f for which…
A function $f:\mathbb{Z}_n \to \mathbb{C}$ can be represented as a linear combination $f(x)=\sum_{\alpha \in \mathbb{Z}_n}\widehat{f}(\alpha) \chi_{\alpha,n}(x)$ where $\widehat{f}$ is the (discrete) Fourier transform of $f$. Clearly, the…
We consider upper bounds for the approximation error E|g(X)-g(\hat X)|^p, where X and \hat X are random variables such that \hat X is an approximation of X in the L_p-norm, and the function g belongs to certain function classes, which…
We propose a general method for optimization with semi-infinite constraints that involve a linear combination of functions, focusing on the case of the exponential function. Each function is lower and upper bounded on sub-intervals by…

We obtain sharp estimates for the quasi norm of the maximal function of f when it satisfies certain conditions.
We study approximation properties of the Fr\'{e}chet space of all continuously differentiable functions $\tau$ such that $\tau'(x)=o(1)$ and such that their Laplace transforms admit entire extensions to $\mathbb{C}$. As an application,…
Fix any two numbers $p$ and $q$, with $1<p<q$; we give an example of an integral functional enjoying uniform ellipticity and $p$-$q$ growth.
Denote the coefficients in the complex form of the Fourier series of a function $f$ on the interval $[-\pi, \pi)$ by $\hat f(n)$. It is known that if $p = 2j/(2j-1)$ for some integer $j>0$, then for each function $f$ in $L^p$ there exists…
