Consider a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ and a measurable function $\mu$ supported in $\overline\Omega$ with $\left\|{\mu}\right\|_{L^\infty}<1$. Then the derivatives of a quasiconformal solution of the Beltrami equation $\overline{\partial} f…

This paper is a direct followup of the recent author's paper. In this paper we continue to analyze approximation and recovery properties with respect to systems satisfying universal sampling discretization property and a special…

Some results on the approximation of functions from the Sobolev spaces on metric graphs by step functions are obtained. The estimates are uniform with respect to all graphs of a given finite length, and the constant factors in the…

Discretization of the uniform norm of functions from a given finite dimensional subspace of continuous functions is studied. Previous known results show that for any $N$-dimensional subspace of the space of continuous functions it is…

We study the $L_p$-discrepancy of random point sets in high dimensions, with emphasis on small values of $p$. Although the classical $L_p$-discrepancy suffers from the curse of dimensionality for all $p \in (1,\infty)$, the gap between…

This paper addresses the problem of approximating an unknown function from point evaluations. When obtaining these point evaluations is costly, minimising the required sample size becomes crucial, and it is unreasonable to reserve a…

We consider the domain dependence of the best constant in the subcritical fractional Sobolev constant, $$ \lambda_{s,p}(\Omega):=\inf \left\{ [u]_{H^s(\mathbb{R}^N)}^2,\,\, u\in C^\infty_c(\Omega),\,\, \|u\|_{L^p(\Omega)}=1 \right\}, $$…

For a set $\mathbb{W} \subset L_p(\bT^d)$, $1 < p < \infty$, of multivariate periodic functions on the torus $\bT^d$ and a given function $\varphi \in L_p(\bT^d)$, we study the approximation in the $L_p(\bT^d)$-norm of functions $f \in…

The zero bias distribution $W^*$ of $W$, defined though the characterizing equation $\mathit{EW}f(W)=\sigma^2Ef'(W^*)$ for all smooth functions $f$, exists for all $W$ with mean zero and finite variance $\sigma^2$. For $W$ and $W^*$ defined…

Several new inequalities for moduli of smoothness and errors of the best approximation of a function and its derivatives in the spaces $L_p$, $0<p<1$, are obtained. For example, it is shown that for any $0<p<1$ and $k,\,r\in \mathbb{N}$ one…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be an open set and let $f\in W^{1,p}(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^n)$ be a weak (sequential) limit of Sobolev homeomorphisms. Then $f$ is injective almost everywhere for $p>n-1$ both in the image and in the domain. For…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be bounded a domain. We prove under certain structural assumptions that the fractional maximal operator relative to $\Omega$ maps $L^{p}(\Omega) \to W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ for all $p > 1$, when the smoothness…

We consider the averages of a function $ f$ on $ \mathbb R ^{n}$ over spheres of radius $ 0< r< \infty $ given by $ A_{r} f (x) = \int_{\mathbb S ^{n-1}} f (x-r y) \; d \sigma (y)$, where $ \sigma $ is the normalized rotation invariant…

Sobolev quantities (norms, inner products, and distances) of probability density functions are important in the theory of nonparametric statistics, but have rarely been used in practice, partly due to a lack of practical estimators. They…

We give upper and lower bounds for Diophantine exponents measuring how well a point in the plane can be approximated by points in the orbit of a lattice $\Gamma<\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ acting linearly on $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our method gives…

We extend a randomisation method, introduced by Shiffman-Zelditch and developed by Burq-Lebeau on compact manifolds for the Laplace operator, to the case of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the harmonic oscillator. We construct measures, thanks to…

Let $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb R^2$ be a domain and let $f\in W^{1,1}(\Omega,\mathbb R^2)$ be a homeomorphism (between $\Omega$ and $f(\Omega)$). Then there exists a sequence of smooth diffeomorphisms $f_k$ converging to $f$ in…

In this paper, we prove sharp upper and lower bounds for the approximation of Sobolev functions by sums of multivariate ridge functions, i.e., for approximation by functions of the form $\mathbb{R}^d \ni x \mapsto \sum_{k=1}^n \varrho_k(A_k…

The usual Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^N$, asserts that $\|\nabla u\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)} \geq \mathcal{S}\|u\|_{L^{p^*}(\mathbb{R}^N)}$ for $1<p<N$ and $p^*=\frac{pN}{N-p}$, with $\mathcal{S}$ being the sharp constant. Based on a…

For all functions on an arbitrary open set $\Omega\subset\R^3$ with zero boundary values, we prove the optimal bound \[ \sup_{\Omega}|u| \leq (2\pi)^{-1/2} \left(\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2 \,dx\, \int_{\Omega}|\Delta u|^2 \,dx\right)^{1/4}.…
