We give a characterisation of the weak* symmetric strong diameter 2 property for Lipschitz function spaces in terms of a property of the corresponding metric space. Using this characterisation we show that the weak* symmetric strong…

Given a uniform algebra A on a compact Hausdorff space X and a point x in X, denote by M_x the ideal of functions in A that vanish at x and by J_x the ideal of functions in A that vanish on a neighborhood of x. It is shown that for each…

A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…

Answering a question asked by K.C. Ciesielski and T. Glatzer in 2013, we construct a $C^1$-smooth function $f$ on $[0,1]$ and a set $M \subset \operatorname{graph} f$ nowhere dense in $\operatorname{graph} f$ such that there does not exist…

We consider integral functionals with slow growth and explicit dependence on u of the lagrangian; this includes many relevant examples, as, for instance, in elastoplastic torsion problems or in image restoration problems. Our aim is to…

Let us consider a Banach space $X$ with the property that every real-valued Lipschitz function $f$ can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, $C^1$-smooth function $g$ with $\Lip(g)\le C \Lip(f)$ (with $C$ depending only on the space…

We address some open problems concerning Banach spaces of real-valued Lipschitz functions. Specifically, we prove that the diameter two properties differ from their weak-star counterparts in these spaces. In particular, we establish the…

Let $X$ be a separable Banach space with a separating polynomial. We show that there exists $C\geq 1$ (depending only on $X$) such that for every Lipschitz function $f:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, and every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a…

In this short note, we show that, in any given metric space, every Lipschitz open-map image of every subset of a given metric space whose boundary is Hausdorff-null is Hausdorff-measurable with respect to the same dimension. The main…

Let $f:X\to X$ be a continuous map on a compact metric space with finite topological entropy. Further, we assume that the entropy map $\mu\mapsto h_\mu(f)$ is upper semi-continuous. It is well-known that this implies the continuity of the…

We study composition operators on spaces of holomorphic Lipschitz functions defined on the open unit ball of a complex Banach space. Our approach is based on the linearization of the symbol through the holomorphic Lipschitz-free spaces,…

Let $X$ be a normed space of a finite dimension at least two, and $C\subsetneq X$ a closed convex set with nonempty interior. We are interested in extending Lipschitz quasiconvex functions on $C$ to quasiconvex functions on $X$. We show…

We construct a H\"older continuous function on the unit interval which coincides in uncountably (in fact continuum) many points with every function of total variation smaller than 1 passing through the origin. We say that a function with…

With every locally compact group $G$, one can associate several interesting bi-invariant subspaces $X(G)$ of the weakly almost periodic functions $\mathrm{WAP}(G)$ on $G$, each of which captures parts of the representation theory of $G$.…

The Banach space $\mathcal{P}({}^2X)$ of $2$-homogeneous polynomials on the Banach space $X$ can be naturally embedded in the Banach space ${{\rm Lip}_0}(B_X)$ of real-valued Lipschitz functions on $B_X$ that vanish at $0$. We investigate…

We construct a complete metric space $M$ of cardinality continuum such that every non-singleton closed separable subset of $M$ fails to be a Lipschitz retract of $M$. This provides a metric analogue to the various classical and recent…

To minimize or upper-bound the value of a function "robustly", we might instead minimize or upper-bound the "epsilon-robust regularization", defined as the map from a point to the maximum value of the function within an epsilon-radius. This…

Consider a Henselian rank one valued field $K$ of equicharacteristic zero with the three-sorted language $\mathcal{L}$ of Denef--Pas. Let $f: A \to K$ be a continuous $\mathcal{L}$-definable (with parameters) function on a closed bounded…

Let us consider a Riemannian manifold $M$ (either separable or non-separable). We prove that, for every $\epsilon>0$, every Lipschitz function $f:M\rightarrow\mathbb R$ can be uniformly approximated by a Lipschitz, $C^1$-smooth function $g$…

We consider a functional calculus for compact operators, acting on the singular values rather than the spectrum, which appears frequently in applied mathematics. Necessary and sufficient conditions for this singular value functional…
