This paper collects results and open problems concerning several classes of functions that generalize uniform continuity in various ways, including those metric spaces (generalizing Atsuji spaces) where all continuous functions have the…

It is possible that fundamental constants may not be constant at all. There is a generally accepted view that one can only talk about variations of dimensionless quantities, such as the fine structure constant $\alpha_{\rm e}\equiv…

Brief development of the idea of the very important notion of continuity is given. Continuity is often confused with contiguity, "drawing the graph in one go," "no gaps," etc. The author argues in support of using correct notions of…

We prove a quenched almost sure invariance principle for certain classes of random distance expanding dynamical systems which do not necessarily exhibit uniform decay of correlations.

We provide a version of the transference principle. It says that certain optimization problems for functions on the circle, the interval, and the line have the same answers. In particular, we show that the sharp constants in the…

We revisit the classical monotone-follower problem and consider it in a generalized formulation. Our approach is based on a compactness substitute for nondecreasing processes, the Meyer-Zheng weak convergence, and the maximum principle of…

Motivated by the recent progress on positive mass theorem for asymptotically flat manifolds with arbitrary ends and the Gromov's definition of scalar curvature lower bound for continuous metrics, we start a program on the positive mass…

In this article we study two "strong" topologies for spaces of smooth functions from a finite-dimensional manifold to a (possibly infinite-dimensional) manifold modeled on a locally convex space. Namely, we construct Whitney type topologies…

We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…

Here I prove some extension theorem for multifunctions in a space with an arbitrary uniform structure and orbital completeness. The motivation comes from a fixed point theorem due to Dhage which is proved as a special case of the theorem…

We establish an approximate zero-one law for sentences of continuous logic over finite metric spaces of diameter at most $1$. More precisely, we axiomatize a complete metric theory $T_{\mathrm{as}}$ such that, given any sentence $\sigma$ in…

Let $X$ be metrizable, $Y$ be perfectly normal and suppose that there exists a uniformly continuous surjection $T: C_{p}(X) \to C_{p}(Y)$ (resp., $T: C_{p}^*(X) \to C_{p}^*(Y)$), where $C_{p}(X)$ (resp., $C_{p}^*(X)$) denotes the space of…

Given a parameter dependent fixed point equation $x = F(x,u)$, we derive an abstract compactness principle for the fixed point map $u \mapsto x^*(u)$ under the assumptions that (i) the fixed point equation can be solved by the contraction…

A diagonal version of the strong reflection principle is introduced, along with fragments of this principle associated to arbitrary forcing classes. The relationships between the resulting principles and related principles, such as the…

We extend the notion of an almost flat bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold to bundles over simplicial complexes, and prove that up to a constant factor, this notion is invariant under pullback via maps which induce isomorphisms on…

In this paper, we prove some rigidity theorems for compact Bach-flat $n$-manifold with the positive constant scalar curvature. In particular, our conditions in Theorem 1.4 have the additional properties of being sharp.

Measurability with respect to ideals is tightly connected with absoluteness principles for certain forcing notions. We study a uniformization principle that postulates the existence of a uniformizing function on a large set, relative to a…

We prove an invariance principle for continuous-time random walks in a dynamically averaging environment on $\mathbb Z$. In the beginning, the conductances may fluctuate substantially, but we assume that as time proceeds, the fluctuations…

A permanental field, $\psi=\{\psi(\nu),\nu\in {\mathcal{V}}\}$, is a particular stochastic process indexed by a space of measures on a set $S$. It is determined by a kernel $u(x,y)$, $x,y\in S$, that need not be symmetric and is allowed to…

The fine structure constant $\alpha $ includes the speed of light as given by $\alpha =\frac{e^{2}}{4\pi \epsilon_{0}c\hbar}$. It is shown here that, following a $TH\epsilon \mu $ formalism, interpreting the permittivity $\epsilon_{0}$ and…
