Matrix-valued covariance functions are crucial to geostatistical modeling of multivariate spatial data. The classical assumption of symmetry of a multivariate covariance function is overlay restrictive and has been considered as unrealistic…
Some geometric properties of a normalized hyper-Bessel functions are investigated. Especially we focus on the radii of starlikeness, convexity, and uniform convexity of hyper-Bessel functions and we show that the obtained radii satisfy some…
A class of functions involving the divided differences of the psi function and the polygamma functions and originating from Kershaw's double inequality are proved to be completely monotonic. As applications of these results, the…
The paper deals with the problem of integration of equations of motion in nonholonomic systems. By means of well-known theory of the differential equations with an invariant measure the new integrable systems are discovered. Among them…
Given an Euclidean space, this paper elucidates the topological link between the partial derivatives of the Minkowski functional associated to a set (assumed to be compact, convex, with a differentiable boundary and a non-empty interior)…
We propose a unified view of the polarity of functions, that encompasses all specific definitions, generalizes several well-known properties and provides new results. We show that bipolar sets and bipolar functions are isomorphic lattices.…
A unifying description of lattice potentials generated by aperiodic one-dimensional sequences is proposed in terms of their local reflection or parity symmetry properties. We demonstrate that the ranges and axes of local reflection symmetry…
In this paper we study the complex symmetry in the several variable Fock space by using the techniques of weighted composition operators and semigroups. We characterize unbounded weighted composition operators that are (real) complex…
The richly developed theory of complex manifolds plays important roles in our understanding of holomorphic functions in several complex variables. It is natural to consider manifolds that will play similar roles in the theory of holomorphic…
This paper studies the strong quasiconvexity of norm and distance functions in finite-dimensional normed spaces. Although the Euclidean norm is known to be strongly quasiconvex on bounded convex sets, a complete characterization of this…
This paper presents a noncommutative theory of symmetric functions, based on the notion of quasi-determinant. We begin with a formal theory, corresponding to the case of symmetric functions in an infinite number of independent variables.…
We conjecture that whenever $M$ is a metric space of density at most continuum, then the space of Lipschitz functions is $w^*$-separable. We prove the conjecture for several classes of metric spaces including all the Banach spaces with a…
We first show that in the function realizability topos every metric space is separable, and every object with decidable equality is countable. More generally, working with synthetic topology, every $T_0$-space is separable and every…
In this paper, we investigate the relationship between positive definite functions on the unit sphere $\sph$ and on the Euclidean space $\RR^d$. For the dimension $d$ to be odd, a new technique is developed to establish the inheritance of…
This paper studies the problem of identifying directions of axial symmetry in multivariate distributions. Theoretical results are derived on how the measure or cardinality of the set of symmetry directions relates to spherical symmetry. The…
We consider a system of differential equations and obtain its solutions with exponential asymptotics and analyticity with respect to the spectral parameter. Solutions of such type have importance in studying spectral properties of…
We point out the connection of the so-called H\^opital-style rules for monotonicity and oscillation to some well-known properties of concave/convex functions. From this standpoint, we are able to generalize the rules under no…
We study properties of inner and outer functions in the Hardy space of the quaternionic unit ball. In particular, we give sufficient conditions as well as necessary ones for functions to be inner or outer.
The necessary and sufficient conditions for a function to be totally or partially separable are derived. It is shown that a function is totally separable if and only if each component of the gradient vector of depends only on the…
The concept of measurability of functions on a charge space is generalised for functions taking values in a uniform space. Several existing forms of measurability generalise naturally in this context, and new forms of measurability are…
