Falconer proved that there are sets $E\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ of Hausdorff dimension $n/2$ whose distance sets $\{|x-y| : x,y\in E\}$ are null with respect to Lebesgue measure. This led to the conjecture that distance sets have positive…
Let $d$ be a positive integer, and let $\mu$ be a finite measure on $\br^d$. In this paper we ask when it is possible to find a subset $\Lambda$ in $\br^d$ such that the corresponding complex exponential functions $e_\lambda$ indexed by…
We generalize the Beckner's type Poincar\'e inequality \cite{Beckner} to a large class of probability measures on an abstract Wiener space of the form $\mu\star\nu$, where $\mu$ is the reference Gaussian measure and $\nu$ is a probability…
For multi-variable finite measure spaces, we present in this paper a new framework for non-orthogonal $L^2$ Fourier expansions. Our results hold for probability measures $\mu$ with finite support in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that satisfy a certain…
This note provides truncated formulae with explicit error terms to compute Euler products over primes in arithmetic progressions of rational fractions. It further provides such a formula for the product of terms of the shape $F(1/p, 1/p^s)$…
We characterize the Borel measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}$ for which the associated dyadic Hilbert transform, or its adjoint, is of weak-type $(1,1)$ and/or strong-type $(p,p)$ with respect to $\mu$. Surprisingly, the class of such measures…
Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space, and let an iterated function system (IFS) be given on $X$, i.e., a finite set of continuous maps $\sigma_{i}$: $ X\to X$, $i=0,1,..., N-1$. The maps $\sigma_{i}$ transform the measures $\mu $ on $X$…
We establish sharp well-posedness and approximation estimates for variational saddle point systems at the continuous level. The main results of this note have been known to be true only in the finite dimensional case. Known spectral results…
We revisit the fundamental question of simple-versus-simple hypothesis testing with an eye towards computational complexity, as the statistically optimal likelihood ratio test is often computationally intractable in high-dimensional…
We study the top Lyapunov exponents of random products of positive $2 \times 2$ matrices and obtain an efficient algorithm for its computation. As in the earlier work of Pollicott, the algorithm is based on the Fredholm theory of…
The family $\mathcal{P}_{d}^{\lambda_{d-1}}$ of all probability measures on $[0,1]^d$ whose $(d-1)$-dimensional marginals are all equal to the Lebesgue measure $\lambda_{d-1}$ on $[0,1]^{d-1}$ contains remarkably pathological elements:…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be an arbitrary finite field, and $\mathcal{E}$ be a set of points in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$. Let $\Delta(\mathcal{E})$ be the set of distances determined by pairs of points in $\mathcal{E}$. By using the Kloosterman sums,…
In this note we define a $C^1$ function $F:[0,M]^2\to [0,2]$ that satisfies that its set of critical values has positive measure. This function provides an example, easier than those that usually appear in the literature, of how the order…
A novel algorithm is proposed for quantitative comparisons between compact surfaces embedded in the three-dimensional Euclidian space. The key idea is to identify those objects with the associated surface measures and compute a weak…
In this paper we prove two approximation results for divergence free measures. The first is a form of an assertion of J. Bourgain and H. Brezis concerning the approximation of solenoidal charges in the strict topology: Given $F \in…
Let $\xi_1,\xi_2,...$ be independent identically distributed random variables and $F:\bbR^\ell\to SL_d(\bbR)$ be a Borel measurable matrix-valued function. Set $X_n=F(\xi_{q_1(n)},\xi_{q_2(n)},...,\xi_{q_\ell(n)})$ where $0\leq…
Explicit expressions and computational approaches are given for the Fortet-Mourier distance between a positively weighted sum of Dirac measures on a metric space and a positive finite Borel measure. Explicit expressions are given for the…
We study the nonlinear fractional equation $(-\Delta)^s u = f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, for all fractions $0<s<1$ and all nonlinearities $f$. For every fractional power $s \in (0,1)$, we obtain sharp energy estimates for bounded global…
We introduce and study skew product Smale endomorphisms over finitely irreducible topological Markov shifts with countable alphabets. We prove that almost all conditional measures of equilibrium states of summable and locally Holder…
We study two modifications of the trapezoidal product cubature formulae, approximating double integrals over the square domain $[a,b]^2=[a,b]\times [a,b]$. Our modified cubature formulae use mixed type data: except evaluations of the…
