In a general measure space $(X,\mathcal L,\lambda)$, a characterization of weakly null sequences in $L_\infty (X,\mathcal L,\lambda)$ ($u_k \rightharpoonup 0$) in terms of their pointwise behaviour almost everywhere is derived from the…

Nonparanormal models describe the joint distribution of multivariate responses via latent Gaussian, and thus parametric, copulae while allowing flexible nonparametric marginals. Some aspects of such distributions, for example conditional…

We consider inequalities between $L_p$-norms of partial derivatives, $p\in [1,+\infty]$, for bivariate concave functions on a convex domain that vanish on the boundary. Can the ratio between those norms be arbitrarily large? If not, what is…

The L-fractional derivative is defined as a certain normalization of the well-known Caputo derivative, so alternative properties hold: smoothness and finite slope at the origin for the solution, velocity units for the vector field, and a…

For an index set $\Gamma$ and a cardinal number $\kappa$ the $\Sigma_{\kappa}$-product of real lines $\Sigma_{\kappa}(\mathbb{R}^{\Gamma})$ consist of all elements of $\mathbb{R}^{\Gamma}$ with $<\kappa$ nonzero coordinates. A compact space…

The implicit signature k consists of the multiplication and the ({\omega}-1)-power. We describe a procedure to transform each {\kappa}-term over a finite alphabet A into a certain canonical form and show that different canonical forms have…

Approximations of functions with finite data often do not respect certain "structural" properties of the functions. For example, if a given function is non-negative, a polynomial approximation of the function is not necessarily also…

Compactness is one of the core notions of analysis: it connects local properties to global ones and makes limits well-behaved. We study the computational properties of the compactness of Cantor space $2^{\mathbb{N}}$ for uncountable covers.…

The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the theory of profinite semigroups by considering the special class consisting of those all of whose finitely generated closed subsemigroups are countable, which are said to be locally…

An alternative foundation for 2-categories is explored by studying graph-theoretically a partial operation on 2-cells named juncture, which can replace vertical and horizontal composition. Juncture is a generalized vertical composition of…

We prove the consistency of: for suitable strongly inaccessible cardinal lambda the dominating number, i.e., the cofinality of ^{lambda}lambda, is strictly bigger than cov_lambda(meagre), i.e. the minimal number of nowhere dense subsets of…

The $\kappa$-topologies on the spaces $\mathscr{D}_{L^p}$, $L^p$ and $\mathscr{M}^1$ are defined by a neighbourhood basis consisting of polars of absolutely convex and compact subsets of their (pre-)dual spaces. In many cases it is more…

Regularization plays a key role in a variety of optimization formulations of inverse problems. A recurring theme in regularization approaches is the selection of regularization parameters, and their effect on the solution and on the optimal…

In the classical theory of $L$-series, the exact order (of zero) at a trivial zero is easily computed via the functional equation. In the characteristic $p$ theory, it has long been known that a functional equation of classical $s\mapsto…

Let kappa be an uncountable cardinal and the edges of a complete graph with kappa vertices be colored with aleph_0 colors. For kappa >2^{aleph_0} the Erd\H{o}s-Rado theorem implies that there is an infinite monochromatic subgraph. However,…

A ccc-generically supercompact cardinal $\kappa$ can be smaller than or equal to the continuum. On the other hand, such a cardinal $\kappa$ still satisfies diverse largeness properties, like that it is a stationary limit of ccc-generically…
