In this paper we establish the existence of extremal functions for weighted functionals with critical exponential growth in R^2, which arise from Henon-type equations. The proof is based on the notion of spherical symmetrization with…

We study a parametrized family of strong maximal fractional operators. We prove their $L^p$ to $L^q$ boundedness for $1<p\le q<\infty$.

Let $1<p,q<\infty ,\ \theta_1 \geq 0,\ \theta_2 \geq 0$ and let $a(x), b(x)$ be a weight functions. In the present paper we intend to study the function space $A_{q),\theta _{2}}^{p),\theta _{1}}\left( \mathbb R^n\right)$ consisting of all…

As one would anticipate from the realization of the q-commutators by difference operators, the states of maximum localization are smeared delta functions depending on q.

New sufficient conditions for representation of a function of several variables as an absolutely convergent Fourier integral are obtained in the paper.

For $1<p<\infty$ and $M$ the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator on $\mathbb{R}$, we consider whether there is some $\varepsilon=\varepsilon(p)>0$ such that $\|Mf\|_p\ge (1+\varepsilon)||f||_p$. We prove this for $1<p<2$. For $2\le…

We prove two main results on how arbitrary linear threshold functions $f(x) = \sign(w\cdot x - \theta)$ over the $n$-dimensional Boolean hypercube can be approximated by simple threshold functions. Our first result shows that every…

A famous theorem of Carleson says that, given any function $f\in L^p(\TT)$, $p\in(1,+\infty)$, its Fourier series $(S_nf(x))$ converges for almost every $x\in \mathbb T$. Beside this property, the series may diverge at some point, without…

This is an expository paper on approximating functions from general Hilbert or Banach spaces in the worst case, average case and randomized settings with error measured in the $L_p$ sense. We define the power function as the ratio between…

We study the Fourier ratio of a signal $f:\mathbb Z_N\to\mathbb C$, \[ \mathrm{FR}(f)\ :=\ \sqrt{N}\,\frac{\|\widehat f\|_{L^1(\mu)}}{\|\widehat f\|_{L^2(\mu)}} \ =\ \frac{\|\widehat f\|_1}{\|\widehat f\|_2}, \] as a simple scalar parameter…

A Fr\'echet mean of a random variable $Y$ with values in a metric space $(\mathcal Q, d)$ is an element of the metric space that minimizes $q \mapsto \mathbb E[d(Y,q)^2]$. This minimizer may be non-unique. We study strong laws of large…

Dual feasible functions (DFFs) have been used to provide bounds for standard packing problems and valid inequalities for integer optimization problems. In this paper, the connection between general DFFs and a particular family of…

We introduce a new deterministic factoring algorithm, which could be described in the cryptographically fashionable term of "factoring with hints": we show that, given the knowledge of the factorisations of $O(N^{1/3+\epsilon})$ terms…

Suppose $0 < \alpha \leq n$, $H: \Bbb R^n \to [0,1]$ is a Lebesgue measurable function, and $A_\alpha(H)$ is the infimum of all numbers $C$ for which the inequality $\int_B H(x) dx \leq C R^\alpha$ holds for all balls $B \subset \Bbb R^n$…

Consider the class of zero-mean functions with fixed $L^{\infty}$ and $L^1$ norms and exactly $N\in \mathbb{N}$ nodal points. Which functions $f$ minimize $W_p(f_+,f_-)$, the Wasserstein distance between the measures whose densities are the…

This paper examines the problem of extrapolation of an analytic function for $x > 1$ given perturbed samples from an equally spaced grid on $[-1,1]$. Mathematical folklore states that extrapolation is in general hopelessly ill-conditioned,…

Let ${{\bf R}_{\mathbb{S}^{d-1}}}(p\to q)$ denote the best constant for the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)\to L^q(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})$ Fourier restriction inequality to the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$, and let ${\bf R}_{\mathbb{S}^{d-1}} (p\to…

We present randomized approximation algorithms for multi-criteria Max-TSP. For Max-STSP with k > 1 objective functions, we obtain an approximation ratio of $1/k - \eps$ for arbitrarily small $\eps > 0$. For Max-ATSP with k objective…

We analyse q-functional equations arising from tree-like combinatorial structures, which are counted by size, internal path length, and certain generalisations thereof. The corresponding counting parameters are labelled by a positive…

We give a classical $1/(qk+1)$-approximation for the maximum eigenvalue of a $k$-sparse fermionic Hamiltonian with strictly $q$-local terms, as well as a $1/(4k+1)$-approximation when the Hamiltonian has both $2$-local and $4$-local terms.…
