A function $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is called $\sigma$-$continuous$ (resp. $\bar\sigma$-$continuous$) if there exists a (closed) cover $\{X_n\}_{n\in\omega}$ of $X$ such that for every $n\in\omega$ the restriction…
It is easy to show that a pseudovariety which is reducible with respect to an implicit signature $\sigma$ for the equation $x=y$ can also be defined by $\sigma$-identities. We present several negative examples for the converse using…
Let T be a complete, first-order theory in a finite or countable language having infinite models. Let I(T,kappa) be the number of isomorphism types of models of T of cardinality \kappa. We denote by \mu (respectively \hat\mu) the number of…
Let $g\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ be a strictly decreasing continuous function supported on $\mathbb{R}_+$ such that for all $t > 0$ we have $g(x+t)\le q(t)g(x)$ for some $q(t)<1$. We prove that the Gabor system…
We prove that for every function $f:X\to Y$, where $X$ is a separable Banach space and $Y$ is a Banach space with RNP, there exists a set $A\in\tilde\mcA$ such that $f$ is Gateaux differentiable at all $x\in S(f)\setminus A$, where $S(f)$…
In this paper, in particular, we prove the following result: Let $E$ be a reflexive real Banach space and let $C\subset E$ be a closed convex set, with non-empty interior, whose boundary is sequentially weakly closed and non-convex. Then,…
We determine the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equation \[f(xy)+\mu (y)f(\sigma (y)x) = 2f(x)g(y),\quad x,y\in S,\] where $S$ is a semigroup and $\sigma$ an automorphism, $\mu :S\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ is a…
We generalize and improve the original characterization given by Valadier [20, Theorem 1] of the subdifferential of the pointwise supremum of convex functions, involving the subdifferentials of the data functions at nearby points. We remove…
Let $\Gamma$ be a Polish space and let $K$ be a separable and pointwise compact set of real-valued functions on $\Gamma$. It is shown that if each function in $K$ has only countably many discontinuities then $C(K)$ may be equipped with a…
We study the problem $x_{b,\omega} := \text{arg min}_{x \in \mathcal{S}} \|(A + \omega I)^{-1/2} (b - Ax)\|_2$, with $A = A^*$, for a subspace $\mathcal{S}$ of $\mathbb{F}^n$ ($\mathbb{F} = \mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$), and $\omega >…
We consider a two-dimensional analogue of Jacobi theta functions and prove that, among all lattices $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ with fixed density, the minimal value is maximized by the hexagonal lattice. This result can be interpreted…
We establish a Sewing lemma in the regime $\gamma \in \left( 0, 1 \right]$, constructing a Sewing map which is neither unique nor canonical, but which is nonetheless continuous with respect to the standard norms. Two immediate corollaries…
We get a new multiplicity result for gradient systems. Here is a very particular corollary: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) be a smooth bounded domain and let $\Phi:{\bf R}^2\to {\bf R}$ be a $C^1$ function, with $\Phi(0,0)=0$,…
Motivated by problems arising in conductivity imaging, we prove existence, uniqueness, and comparison theorems - under certain sharp conditions - for minimizers of the general least gradient problem \[\inf_{u\in BV_f(\Omega)}…
Given a subset $A\times B$ of a locally convex space $X\times Y$ (with $A$ compact) and a function $f:A\times B\rightarrow\overline{\mathbb{R}}$ such that $f(\cdot,y),$ $y\in B,$ are concave and upper semicontinuous, the minimax inequality…
In this paper we introduce two conceptual algorithms for minimising abstract convex functions. Both algorithms rely on solving a proximal-type subproblem with an abstract Bregman distance based proximal term. We prove their convergence when…
Let $M$ be a complex $n$-dimensional projective manifold in $\mathbb{P}^{n+r}$ endowed with the Fubini-Study metric of constant holomorphic sectional curvature $1$, $\sigma$ its second fundamental form, and $\underline{|\sigma|}^2$ the mean…
This article shows a very elementary and straightforward proof of the Implicit Function Theorem for differentiable maps $F(x,y)$ defined on a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. There are no hypothesis on the continuity of the partial…
This work provides formulae for the $\epsilon$-subdifferential of integral functions in the framework of complete $\sigma$-finite measure spaces and locally convex spaces. In this work we present here new formulae for this…
