We provide several equivalent characterizations of locally flat, $d$-Ahlfors regular, uniformly rectifiable sets $E$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density close to $1$ for any dimension $d \in \mathbb{N}$ with $1 \le d \le n-1$. In particular, we…

In this paper a spline based integral approximation is utilized to propose a sequence of approximations to the error function that converge at a significantly faster manner than the default Taylor series. The approximations can be improved…

We show that for any ergodic Lebesgue measure preserving transformation $f: [0,1) \rightarrow [0,1)$ and any decreasing sequence $\{b_i\}_{i=1}^{\infty}$ of positive real numbers with divergent sum, the set…

Submodular functions are a fundamental object of study in combinatorial optimization, economics, machine learning, etc. and exhibit a rich combinatorial structure. Many subclasses of submodular functions have also been well studied and…

This paper demonstrates that the space of piecewise smooth functions can be well approximated by the space of functions defined by a set of simple (non-linear) operations on smooth uniform splines. The examples include bivariate functions…

Let $D$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb C^n$. We study approximation of (not necessarily bounded from above) $m-$subharmonic function $D$ by continuous $m-$subharmonic ones defined on neighborhoods of $\overline{D}$. We also consider the…

In this paper, we establish the following result: Let $(T,{\cal F},\mu)$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure space, let $Y$ be a reflexive real Banach space, and let $\varphi, \psi:Y\to {\bf R}$ be two sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous…

We derive upper bounds on the difference between the orthogonal projections of a smooth function $u$ onto two finite element spaces that are nearby, in the sense that the support of every shape function belonging to one but not both of the…

We extend the theory of Euler integration from the class of constructible functions to that of "tame" real-valued functions (definable with respect to an o-minimal structure). The corresponding integral operator has some unusual defects (it…

We introduce the notion of $t$-sum of squares (sos) submodularity, which is a hierarchy, indexed by $t$, of sufficient algebraic conditions for certifying submodularity of set functions. We show that, for fixed $t$, each level of the…

A classical problem in number theory is showing that the mean value of an arithmetic function is asymptotic to its mean value over a short interval or over an arithmetic progression, with the interval as short as possible or the modulus as…

The aim of this paper is to develop tractable large deviation approximations for the empirical measure of a small noise diffusion. The starting point is the Freidlin-Wentzell theory, which shows how to approximate via a large deviation…

Submodular continuous functions are a category of (generally) non-convex/non-concave functions with a wide spectrum of applications. We characterize these functions and demonstrate that they can be maximized efficiently with approximation…

We prove minimax theorems for lower semicontinuous functions defined on a Hilbert space. The main tool is the theory of $\Phi$-convex functions and sufficient and necessary conditions for the minimax equality to hold for $\Phi$-convex…

No functions class for general measurable sets classes are known whose functions have the property of differentiability of integrals associated to such sets classes. In this paper,we give some subspaces of $L^s$ with $1<s<\infty$, whose…

We study inequalities of the form \begin{equation*} \rho ( \lvert \hat{f} \rvert) \leq C \sigma(f) < \infty, \end{equation*} with $f \in L_{1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, the Lebesgue-integrable functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and \begin{equation*}…

This paper deals with subspace estimation in the small sample size regime, where the number of samples is comparable in magnitude with the observation dimension. The traditional estimators, mostly based on the sample correlation matrix, are…

We prove a representation formula for superharmonic functions on the half-space $\mathbb{R}^N_+ := \mathbb{R}^{N-1}\times]0,+\infty[$. As a consequence, we derive some comparison principles and various positivity results.

We prove that the gradient of any bounded subharmonic function is upper semi-continuous, provided that its super-level sets can be touched from the exterior by uniform $C^{1,\text{Dini}}$ domains at every point. This idea extends to a class…
