We study pointwise behavior of positive solutions to nonlinear integral equations, and related inequalities, of the type \begin{equation*} u(x) - \int_\Omega G(x, y) \, g(u(y)) d \sigma (y) = h, \end{equation*} where $(\Omega, \sigma)$ is a…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$ be an open set. Given a boundary datum $g$ on $\partial\Omega$ and a function $K:\bar {\Omega} \to\mathcal{K}$, the family of all compact convex subsets of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, we prove the existence of…

Let $u$ be a nowhere vanishing holomorphic function on the Drinfeld space $\Omega^{r}$ of dimension $r-1$, where $r \geq 2$. The logarithm $\log_{q}\lvert u \rvert$ of its absolute value may be regarded as an affine function on the attached…

We develop a gradient-flow theory for time-dependent functionals defined in abstract metric spaces. Global well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of solutions are provided. Conditions on functionals and metric spaces allow to consider the…

This paper is dedicated to a free boundary system arising in the study of a class of shape optimization problems. The problem involves three variables: two functions $u$ and $v$, and a domain $\Omega$; with $u$ and $v$ being both positive…

In this work, we revisit the following estimate due to Dahlberg \cite{Dahl}. Let $\textit{\textbf x}_0$ a fixed point in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$. Then there exists a constant $C > 0$ such that if $u$ is a harmonic function in…

We consider the Dirichlet problem u_t &= \Delta u + f(x, u, \nabla u)+ h(x, t),& \qquad &(x, t) \in \Omega \times (0, \infty), u &= 0, & \qquad &(x, t) \in \partial\Omega \times (0, \infty), on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset…

Let $\{P_{\theta}:\theta \in {\mathbb R}^d\}$ be a log-concave location family with $P_{\theta}(dx)=e^{-V(x-\theta)}dx,$ where $V:{\mathbb R}^d\mapsto {\mathbb R}$ is a known convex function and let $X_1,\dots, X_n$ be i.i.d. r.v. sampled…

We study the invariant subspaces generated by inner functions for a class of $\mathcal{P}^t(\mu)$-spaces which can be identified as spaces of analytic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, where $\mu$ is a measure supported in the closed…

We propose a penalty-based smoothing framework for convex nonsmooth functions with a supremum structure. The regularization yields a differentiable surrogate with controlled approximation error, a single-valued dual maximizer, and explicit…

We study the Wu metric for the non-convex domains of the form \[ E_{2m} = \big\{ z \in \mathbb{C}^n : \vert z_1 \vert^{2m} + \vert z_2 \vert^2 + \ldots + \vert z_{n-1} \vert^2 + \vert z_n \vert^{2} <1 \big \}, \] where $ 0 < m < 1/2$.…

We consider the problems of \emph{learning} and \emph{testing} real-valued convex functions over Gaussian space. Despite the extensive study of function convexity across mathematics, statistics, and computer science, its learnability and…

In this paper we associate with an infinite family of real extended functions defined on a locally convex space, a sum, called robust sum, which is always well-defined. We also associate with that family of functions a dual pair of problems…

For $\mathcal{O}$ a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and a given smooth function $g:\mathcal{O}\to\mathbb{R}$, we consider the statistical nonlinear inverse problem of recovering the conductivity $f>0$ in the divergence form equation $$…

We show that a finite volume deformation retract $\mathcal{T}_{\varepsilon_t}^{-}(\mathcal{N}_g)/\mathrm{MCG}(\mathcal{N}_g)$ of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}(\mathcal{N}_g)$ of non-orientable surfaces $\mathcal{N}_g$ behaves like the…

We consider the space of convex functions defined in the Euclidean $n$-dimensional space, which are lower semi-continuous and tend to infinity at infinity. We study real-valued valuations defined on this space of functions, which are…

Let $(M,g)$ be an $n-$dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. Let $h$ be a smooth function on $M$ and assume that it has a critical point $\xi\in M$ such that $h(\xi)=0$ and which satisfies a suitable flatness assumption. We are interested…

We study the equilibrium of hyperelastic solids subjected to kinematic constraints on many small regions, which we call perforations. Such constraints on the displacement $u$ are given in the quite general form $u(x) \in F_x$, where $F_x$…

The paper is devoted to a comprehensive second-order study of a remarkable class of convex extended-real-valued functions that is highly important in many aspects of nonlinear and variational analysis, specifically those related to…

Two and three point functions of composite operators are analysed with regard to (logarithmically) divergent contact terms. Using the renormalisation group of dimensional regularisation it is established that the divergences are governed by…
