We investigate qualitative properties of positive singular solutions of some elliptic systems in bounded and unbounded domains. We deduce symmetry and monotonicity properties via the moving plane procedure. Moreover, in the unbounded case,…

We propose a series-based nonparametric specification test for a regression function when data are spatially dependent, the `space' being of a general economic or social nature. Dependence can be parametric, parametric with increasing…

Smooth hypoellipticity for scalar equations is quite well understood presently. On the other hand, much remains to be done for systems and/or at different levels of regularity and in particular for $L^1$-hypoellipticity. In this article we…

We provide a comparison test for meromorphic extensions, i.e., if two series are ``close enough" then the existence of a meromorphic extension of one to the entire complex plane ensures a similar extension for the other. We use this result…
