Let $B_\theta $ be the family of rectangles in the plane $R^2$, having slope $\theta $ with the abscissa. We say a set of slopes $\Theta $ is $D$-set if there exists a function $f\in L(R^2)$, such that the basis $B_\theta $ differentiates…

For a Banach space $X$ by $Conv_H(X)$ we denote the space of non-empty closed convex subsets of $X$, endowed with the Hausdorff metric. We prove that for any closed convex set $C\subset X$ and its metric component $H_C=\{A\in…

HF-DFT, the practice of evaluating approximate density functionals on Hartree-Fock densities, has long been used in testing density functional approximations. Density-corrected DFT (DC-DFT) is a general theoretical framework for identifying…

We propose a general approach to defining a contractive-like multivalued mappings $F$ which avoids any use of the Hausdorff distance between the sets $F(x)$ and $F(y)$. Various fixed point theorems are proved under a two-parameter control…

The variation distance closure of an exponential family with a convex set of canonical parameters is described, assuming no regularity conditions. The tools are the concepts of convex core of a measure and extension of an exponential…

In several recent papers some concepts of convex analysis were extended to discrete sets. This paper is one more step in this direction. It is well known that a local minimum of a convex function is always its global minimum. We study some…

Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold and $F\subset M$ a set with a nonempty interior. For every $x\in M$, let $D_x$ denote the function on $F\times F$ defined by $D_x(y,z)=d(x,y)-d(x,z)$ where $d$ is the geodesic distance in $M$. The…

Let $V$ be a finite nonempty set. A transit function is a map $R:V\times V\rightarrow 2^V$ such that $R(u,u)=\{u\}$, $R(u,v)=R(v,u)$ and $u\in R(u,v)$ hold for every $u,v\in V$. A set $K\subseteq V$ is $R$-convex if $R(u,v)\subset K$ for…

The condition number of a differentiable convex function, namely the ratio of its smoothness to strong convexity constants, is closely tied to fundamental properties of the function. In particular, the condition number of a quadratic convex…

We extend a result, due to Mattila and Sjolin, which says that if the Hausdorff dimension of a compact set $E \subset {\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 2$, is greater than $\frac{d+1}{2}$, then the distance set $\Delta(E)=\{|x-y|: x,y \in E \}$ contains…

Let $X$ be a finite, simple graph with vertex set $V(X)$. The $2$-distance graph $T_2(X)$ of $X$ is the graph with the same vertex set as $X$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance in $X$ is exactly $2$. A graph $G$ is…

It is established that general s-convex functions are a new class of generalized convex functions. In a similar vein, a new class of general s-convex sets is introduced, which are generalizations of s-convex sets. Additionally, certain…

We study how small is the set of critical values of the distance function from a compact (resp. closed) set in the plane or in a connected complete two-dimensional Riemannian manifold. We show that for a compact set, the set of critical…

This note deals with certain properties of convex functions. We provide results on the convexity of the set of minima of these functions, the behaviour of their subgradient set under restriction, and optimization of these functions over an…

Suppose that $f$ belongs to a suitably defined complete metric space $ {{\cal C}}^{{\alpha}}$ of H\"older $ {\alpha}$-functions defined on $[0,1]$. We are interested in whether one can find large (in the sense of Hausdorff, or lower/upper…

The distance on a set is a comparative function. The smaller the distance between two elements of that set, the closer, or more similar, those elements are. Fr\'echet axiomatized the distance into what is today known as a metric. In this…

Let the space $\mathbb{R}^n$ be endowed with a Minkowski structure $M$ (that is $M\colon \mathbb{R}^n \to [0,+\infty)$ is the gauge function of a compact convex set having the origin as an interior point, and with boundary of class $C^2$),…

Our concern is the digitalization of line segments in two dimensions as considered by Chun et al.[Discrete Comput. Geom., 2009] and Christ et al.[Discrete Comput. Geom., 2012]. The key property that differentiates the research of Chun et…

In this paper, we discuss some dimension results for triangle sets of compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$. In particular, we prove that for any compact set $F$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, the triangle set $\Delta(F)$ satisfies \[ \dim_{\mathrm{A}}…

We give a characterization of distance--preserving subgraphs of Johnson graphs, i.e. of graphs which are isometrically embeddable into Johnson graphs (the Johnson graph $J(m,\Lambda)$ has the subsets of cardinality $m$ of a set $\Lambda$ as…
