We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a function in a naturally appearing functional space to be a fixed point of the Ruelle-Thurston operator associated to a rational function, see Lemma 2.1. The proof uses essentially a recent…
We formulate explicitly the necessary and sufficient conditions for the local invertibility of a field transformation involving derivative terms. Our approach is to apply the method of characteristics of differential equations, by treating…
It is shown that for a function $f:\mathbb R^2\to \mathbb R$ which is measurable with respect to the first variable and upper semicontinuous quasicontinuous and increasing with respect to the second variable there exists a Caratheodory's…
In this article we reconsider the problem of the propagation of waves in a random medium in a kinetic regime. The final aim of this program would be the understanding of the conditions which allow to derive a kinetic or radiative transfer…
We consider the new class $\boldsymbol{Q}$ of rational-infinitely (or quasi-infinitely) divisible distribution functions on the real line. By definition, $F\in \boldsymbol{Q}$ if there are some infinitely divisible distribution functions…
We define Schwartz functions, tempered functions and tempered distributions on (possibly singular) real algebraic varieties. We prove that all classical properties of these spaces, defined previously on affine spaces and on Nash manifolds,…
Lin's condition is used to establish the moment determinacy/indeterminacy of absolutely continuous probability distributions. Recently, a number of papers related to Lin's condition for functions of random variables have emerged. In this…
As for the positivity of ${}_1F_2$ generalized hypergeometric functions, we present a list of necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of parameters and determine the region of positivity by certain Newton diagram.
It is argued that there is a need for fat-tailed distributions that become thin in the extreme tail. A 3-parameter distribution is introduced that visually resembles the t-distribution and interpolates between the normal distribution and…
We prove several Tauberian theorems for regularizing transforms of vector-valued distributions. The regularizing transform of $f$ is given by the integral transform $M^{f}_{\varphi}(x,y)=(f\ast\varphi_{y})(x),$…
A bound for functional $\Delta(F)=\sup_{x\in\mathbb R}|F(x)-\Phi(x)|$ is obtained, which is uniform for all distribution functions $F$ of random variables with zero mean-value and unity variance. Moreover, a two-point distribution is found,…
In this thesis, we prove the existence of a secondary term for the count of cubic extensions of the function field $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$ of fixed absolute norm of discriminant. We show that the number of cubic extensions with absolute norm of…
We provide new necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of positive series developing Bertran-De Morgan and Cauchy type tests given in [M. Martin, Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. 47(1941), 452-457] and [L. Bourchtein et al, Int. J.…
We find the complete set of conditions satisfied by the forward $2\to2$ scattering amplitude in unitarity and causal theories. These are based on an infinite set of energy dependent quantities -- the arcs -- which are dispersively expressed…
The Cauchy problem for quadratic Klein-Gordon systems is considered in two spatial dimensions and higher under a suitable non-resonance condition on the masses, including the main case of equal masses. A global well-posedness and scattering…
Positive definite matrices abound in a dazzling variety of applications. This ubiquity can be in part attributed to their rich geometric structure: positive definite matrices form a self-dual convex cone whose strict interior is a…
For an arbitrary set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, and functions $f:E \to \mathbb{R}$, $G: E\to \mathbb{R}^n$ with $G$ bounded, we construct $C^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ convex extensions $(F, \nabla F)$ of $(f,G)$ with the sharp Lipschitz constant $$…
The Cauchy-Schl\"omilch transformation states that for a function $f$ and $a, \, b > 0$, the integral of $f(x^{2})$ and $af((ax-bx^{-1})^{2}$ over the interval $[0, \infty)$ are the same. This elementary result is used to evaluate many…
Given a probability measure space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$, it is well known that the Riesz space $L^0(\mu)$ of equivalence classes of measurable functions $f: X \to \mathbf{R}$ is universally complete and the constant function $\mathbf{1}$ is a…
We introduce a countable collection of positivity classes for Hermitian symmetric functions on a complex manifold, and establish their basic properties. We study a related notion of stability. The first main result shows that, if the…
