We prove that solutions of the homogeneous equation $Lu=0$, where $L$ is a locally integrable vector field with smooth coefficients in two variables possess the F. and M. Riesz property. That is, if $\Omega$ is an open subset of the plane…

We establish the following result, confirming a conjecture of Jean Esterle. For each closed subset $E$ of the unit circle of Lebesgue measure zero, there exists a positive sequence $u_n\to\infty$ with the following property: if $T$ is a…

This work deals with the homogenization of functionals with linear growth in the context of $\mathcal{A}$-quasiconvexity. A representation theorem is proved, where the new integrand function is obtained by solving a cell problem where the…

For $k\in\mathbb R$, we consider a $\mathbb C$-algebra $\mathcal A_k$ of holomorphic functions in the half plane $Re\; z>k$ with (at most) subexponential growth on the real line to $+\infty$. In the $\mathcal A_k$-algebra of sequences of…

There have been, over the last 8 years, a number of far reaching extensions of the famous original F. and M. Riesz's uniqueness theorem that states that if a bounded analytic function in the unit disc of the complex plane $\Bbb C$ has the…

Consider a linear functional $L$ defined on the space $\mathcal D[s]$ of Dirichlet polynomials with real coefficients and the set $\mathcal D_+[s]$ of non-negative elements in $\mathcal D[s].$ An analogue of the Riesz-Haviland theorem in…

Let $R$ be a finite ring with identity. The clean graph $Cl(R)$ of a ring $R$ is a graph whose vertices are pairs $(e, u)$, where $e$ is an idempotent element and $u$ is a unit of $R$. Two distinct vertices $(e, u)$ and $(f, v)$ are…

For a unitary local system of rank one on a complete hyperbolic threefold of finite volume which has only one cusp, the Ruelle L-function is defined. We will show that if the first cohomology group of the local system vanishes its value at…

We show that the existence of a strongly convex function with a Lipschitz derivative on a Banach space already implies that the space is isomorphic to a Hilbert space. Similarly, if both a function and its convex conjugate are $C^2$ then…

We show that a randomly chosen linear map over a finite field gives a good hash function in the $\ell_\infty$ sense. More concretely, consider a set $S \subset \mathbb{F}_q^n$ and a randomly chosen linear map $L : \mathbb{F}_q^n \to…

We prove that every continuous function on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space X can be uniformly approximated by smooth functions with no critical points. This kind of result can be regarded as a sort of very strong approximate…

Extending a result of Mashreghi and Ransford, we prove that every complex separable infinite dimensional Fr\'echet space with a continuous norm is isomorphic to a space continuously included in a space of holomorphic functions on the unit…

For a given unitary operator $U$ on a separable complex Hilbert space $\h$, we describe the set $\mathscr{C}_{c}(U)$ of all conjugations $C$ (antilinear, isometric, and involutive maps) on $\h$ for which $C U C = U$. As this set might be…

This paper approaches the construction of the universal completion of the Riesz space $\mathrm{C}(L)$ of continuous real functions on a completely regular frame $L$ in two different ways. Firstly as the space of continuous real functions on…

Let $E$ and $F$ be Banach lattices. We show first that the disjointness preserving linear functionals separate the points of any infinite dimensional Banach lattice $E$, which shows that in this case the unbounded disjointness operators…

We analyze the relationship between Borel measures and continuous linear functionals on the space $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)$ of Lipschitz functions on a complete metric space $M$. In particular, we describe continuous functionals arising from…

Let $T$ be a bounded quaternionic normal operator on a right quaternionic Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We show that $T$ can be factorized in a strongly irreducible sense, that is, for any $\delta >0$ there exist a compact operator $K$ with…

We study universal approximation of continuous functionals on compact subsets of products of Hilbert spaces. We prove that any such functional can be uniformly approximated by models that first take finitely many continuous linear…

Let Lf(x)=-\Delta f(x) + V(x)f(x), V\geq 0, V\in L^1_{loc}(R^d), be a non-negative self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operator on R^d. We say that an L^1-function f belongs to the Hardy space H^1_L if the maximal function M_L f(x)=\sup_{t>0}…

Let $F$ be an ordered topological vector space (over $\mathbb{R}$) whose positive cone $F_+$ is weakly closed, and let $E \subseteq F$ be a subspace. We prove that the set of positive continuous linear functionals on $E$ that can be…
