This paper discusses a more general contractive condition for a class of extended cyclic self-mappings on the union of a finite number of subsets of a metric space which are allowed to have a finite number of successive images in the same…

In this expository paper, we present a construction of tree modules and combine it with (infinite dimensional) tilting theory and relative Mittag-Leffler conditions in order to explore limits of the approximation theory of modules. We also…

In this survey we present the history and recent progress on several fundamental (quasi)conformal uniformization problems in the complex plane. Uniformization refers to the process of mapping a space to a canonical model by means of a…

We exhibit an analogy between the problem of pushing forward measurable sets under measure preserving maps and linear relaxations in combinatorialoptimization. We show how invariance of hyperfiniteness of graphings under local isomorphism…

Many recent studies on first-order methods (FOMs) focus on \emph{composite non-convex non-smooth} optimization with linear and/or nonlinear function constraints. Upper (or worst-case) complexity bounds have been established for these…

$n$-to-$1$ mappings have wide applications in many areas, especially in cryptography, finite geometry, coding theory and combinatorial design. In this paper, many classes of $n$-to-$1$ mappings over finite fields are studied. First, we…

The paper deals with a comprehensive theory of mappings, whose local behavior can be described by means of linear subspaces, contained in the graphs of two (primal and dual) generalized derivatives. This class of mappings includes the…

It is known that a subharmonic function of finite order $\rho$ can be approximated by the logarithm of the modulus of an entire function at the point $z$ outside an exceptional set up to $C\log|z|$. In this article we prove that if such an…

We study the problem of best approximations of a vector $\alpha\in{\mathbb R}^n$ by rational vectors of a lattice $\Lambda\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ whose common denominator is bounded. To this end we introduce successive minima for a periodic…

Given a compact metric space $X$, we associate to it an inverse sequence of finite $T_0$ topological spaces. The inverse limit of this inverse sequence contains a homeomorphic copy of $X$ that is a strong deformation retract. We provide a…

We introduce a general definition of almost $p$-summing mappings and give several concrete examples of such mappings. Some known results are considerably generalized and we present various situations in which the space of almost $p$-summing…

We introduce new global and local inexact oracle concepts for a wide class of convex functions in composite convex minimization. Such inexact oracles naturally come from primal-dual framework, barrier smoothing, inexact computations of…

For an infinite class of finite graphs of unbounded size, we define a limit object, to be called a $\textit{wide limit}$, relative to some computationally restricted class of functions. The limit object is a first order Boolean-valued…

Successive quadratic approximations, or second-order proximal methods, are useful for minimizing functions that are a sum of a smooth part and a convex, possibly nonsmooth part that promotes regularization. Most analyses of iteration…
