Prox-regularity is a generalization of convexity that includes all C2, lower-C2, strongly amenable and primal-lower-nice functions. The study of prox-regular functions provides insight on a broad spectrum of important functions.…
We consider flat families of reduced curves on a smooth surface S such that each member C has the same number of singularities of fixed singularity types and the corresponding (locally closed) subscheme H of the Hilbert scheme of S. We are…
We study analytic and arithmetic properties of the elliptic gamma function $$ \prod_{m,n=0}^\infty\frac{1-x^{-1}q^{m+1}p^{n+1}}{1-xq^mp^n}, \qquad |q|,|p|<1, $$ in the regime $p=q$; in particular, its connection with the elliptic…
We present a generalization of Schlick's bias and gain functions -- simple parametric curve-shaped functions for inputs in [0, 1]. Our single function includes both bias and gain as special cases, and is able to describe other smooth and…
Motivated by a conjecture of Lian and Yau concerning the mirror map in string theory, we determine when the mirror map q-series of certain elliptic curve and K3 surface families are Hauptmoduln (genus zero modular functions). Our geometric…
In this paper, we introduce a parameterized discrete curvature ($\alpha$-curvature) for piecewise linear metrics on polyhedral surfaces, which is a generalization of the classical discrete curvature. A discrete uniformization theorem is…
In this article, we consider the family of functions $f$ analytic in the unit disk $|z|<1$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$ and satisfying the condition $\big |\big (z/f(z)\big )^{2}f'(z)-1\big |<\lambda $ for some $0<\lambda \leq…
For mappings in metric spaces satisfying one inequality with respect to modulus of families of curves, there is proved a lightness of preimage under the mapping. It is proved that, the mappings, satisfying estimate mentioned above, are…
Let X be a compact complex manifold equipped with a smooth (but not necessarily positive) closed form theta of one-one type. By a well-known envelope construction this data determines a canonical theta-psh function u which is not two times…
Consider a symmetric $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process with $\alpha\in (1,2)$. We study shifted small ball probabilities for these processes in the uniform topology, when the shift function is an arbitrary continuous function which starts at…
We consider a family of non-local and non-convex functionals, and we prove that their Gamma-liminf is bounded from below by a positive multiple of the Sobolev norm or the total variation. As a by-product, we answer some open questions…
It is proved that any family of analytic functions with spherical derivative uniformly bounded away from zero ist normal.
In this article, we study the logarithmic Mahler measure of the one-parameter family \[Q_\alpha=y^2+(x^2-\alpha x)y+x,\] denoted by $m(Q_\alpha)$. The zero loci of $Q_\alpha$ generically define elliptic curves $E_\alpha$ which are…
We prove a statement of Ax-Lindemann type for the uniformization of products of Mumford curves whose associated fundamental groups are non-abelian Schottky subgroups of $\mathop{\rm PGL}(2,\bar{\mathbf Q_p})$ contained in $\mathop{\rm…
We show that the average and typical ranks in a certain parametric family of elliptic curves described by D. Ulmer tend to infinity as the parameter $d \to\infty$. This is perhaps unexpected since by a result of A. Brumer, the average rank…
In this work, we construct a proximal average for two prox-bounded functions, which recovers the classical proximal average for two convex functions. The new proximal average transforms continuously in epi-topology from one proximal hull to…
We show that if $X$ is an $m$-dimensional definable set in $\mathbb{R}^\text{pow}_\text{an}$, the structure of real subanalytic sets with real power maps added, then for any positive integer r there exists a $C^r$-parameterization of X…
Let $f(x,y)=0$ and $l(x,y)=0$ be respectively a singular and a regular analytic curve defined in the neighborhood of the origin of the complex plane. We study the family of analytic curves $f(x,y)-tl(x,y)^M=0$, where $t$ is a complex…
We prove a stability result for general $3$-wise correlations over distributions satisfying mild connectivity properties. More concretely, we show that if $\Sigma,\Gamma$ and $\Phi$ are alphabets of constant size, and $\mu$ is a pairwise…
Let $\{X_{\alpha}\}$ be a family of random variables following a certain type of distributions with finite expectation $\mathbf{E}[X_{\alpha}]$ and finite variance ${\rm Var}(X_{\alpha})$, where $\alpha$ is a parameter. Motivated by the…
