We add to the literature the following observation. If $\mu$ is a singular measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$ which assigns measure zero to every porous set and $f:\mathbb{R}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is a Lipschitz function which is…

We establish several sufficient conditions under which a locally integrable function $f:\mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R$ represents a positive-definite distribution. In particular we consider functions of the form $f(\|x\|)$ where $\|\cdot\|$ is…

A discrete function of $n$ variables is a mapping $g : X_1 \times \ldots \times X_n \rightarrow A$, where $X_1, \ldots, X_n$, and $A$ are arbitrary finite sets. Function $g$ is called {\em separable} if there exist $n$ functions $g_i : X_i…

Let $\varphi $ be a negative plurisubharmonic function in a pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ and $f$ be a bounded holomorphic function belonging to $L^{2}(\Omega, \varphi)$. For all negative plurisubharmonic functions $\psi$…

We present sufficient conditions for topological stability of continuous functions $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ having finitely many local extrema with respect to averagings by discrete measures with finite supports.

A relatively polynomially convex subset $V$ of a domain $\Omega$ has the extension property if for every polynomial $p$ there is a bounded holomorphic function $\phi$ on $\Omega$ that agrees with $p$ on $V$ and whose $H^\infty$ norm on…

Logconcave functions represent the current frontier of efficient algorithms for sampling, optimization and integration in R^n. Efficient sampling algorithms to sample according to a probability density (to which the other two problems can…

Sufficient boundary asymptotic conditions are established for a generalized Schur function $f$ to be identically equal to a given rational function $g$ unimodular on the unit circle. Similar rigidity statements are presented for generalized…

In this paper, we consider the characterization of norm--parallelism problem in some classical Banach spaces. In particular, for two continuous functions $f, g$ on a compact Hausdorff space $K$, we show that $f$ is norm--parallel to $g$ if…

We prove that the smallest minimizer s(f) of a real convex function f is less than or equal to a real point x if and only if the right derivative of f at x is non-negative. Similarly, the largest minimizer t(f) is greater or equal to x if…

We establish the \emph{inverse conjecture for the Gowers norm over finite fields}, which asserts (roughly speaking) that if a bounded function $f: V \to \C$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field $\F$ has large Gowers…

Let $M$ be a compact, connected Riemannian manifold whose Riemannian volume measure is denoted by $\sigma$. Let $f: M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a non-constant eigenfunction of the Laplacian. The random wave conjecture suggests that in…

Consider the matrix $\Sigma_n = n^{-1/2} X_n D_n^{1/2} + P_n$ where the matrix $X_n \in \C^{N\times n}$ has Gaussian standard independent elements, $D_n$ is a deterministic diagonal nonnegative matrix, and $P_n$ is a deterministic matrix…

The arbitrary functions principle says that the fractional part of $nX$ converges stably to an independent random variable uniformly distributed on the unit interval, as soon as the random variable $X$ possesses a density or a…

We focus on a sequence of functions $\{f_n\}$, defined on a compact manifold with boundary $S$, converging in the $C^k$ metric to a limit $f$. A common assumption implicitly made in the empirical sciences is that when such functions…

For a probability measure $\mu$ on SL d (R), we consider the Furstenberg stationary measure on the space of flags. Under general non-degeneracy conditions, if $\mu$ is discrete and if g log g d$\mu$(g) < +$\infty$, then the measure $\nu$ is…

Smoothness of a function $f:{\mathbb R}^n\to {\mathbb R}$ can be measured in terms of the rate of convergence of $f\ast\rho_\varepsilon$ to $f$, where $\rho$ is an appropriate mollifier. In the framework of fractional Sobolev spaces, we…

This paper is concerned with $d=2$ dimensional lattice field models with action $V(\na\phi(\cdot))$, where $V:\R^d\ra \R$ is a uniformly convex function. The fluctuations of the variable $\phi(0)-\phi(x)$ are studied for large $|x|$ via the…

We take an $L_1$-dense class of functions $\Cal F$ on a measurable space $(X,\Cal X)$ and a sequence of i.i.d. $X$-valued random variables $\xi_1,\dots,\xi_n$, and give a good estimate on the tail behaviour of $\sup\limits_{f\in\Cal…

In this note, as a particular case of a more general result, we obtain the following theorem: Let $\Omega\subseteq {\bf R}^n$ be a non-empty bounded open set and let $f:\overline {\Omega}\to {\bf R}^n$ be a continuous function which is…
