The Wasserstein distance has been an attractive tool in many fields. But due to its high computational complexity and the phenomenon of the curse of dimensionality in empirical estimation, various extensions of the Wasserstein distance have…

We introduce Banach spaces of vector-valued random variables motivated from mathematical finance. So-called risk functionals are defined in a natural way on these Banach spaces and it is shown that these functionals are Lipschitz…

Here we consider two notions of mappings of bounded variation (BV) from the metric measure space into the metric space; one based on relaxations of Newton-Sobolev functions, and the other based on a notion of AM-upper gradients. We show…

We show that if the Banach-Mazur distance between an n-dimensional normed space X and ell infinity is at most 3/2, then there exist n+1 equidistant points in X. By a well-known result of Alon and Milman, this implies that an arbitrary…

This paper contains two improvements on a theorem of S. N. Bernstein for Banach spaces. We show that if $X$ is an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space, $\{Y_n\}$ is a sequence of strictly nested subspaces of $ X$ and if $\{d_n\}$ is…

For a metric space $X$, we study the space $D^{\infty}(X)$ of bounded functions on $X$ whose infinitesimal Lipschitz constant is uniformly bounded. $D^{\infty}(X)$ is compared with the space $\LIP^{\infty}(X)$ of bounded Lipschitz functions…

In this paper, we discuss the stability of (restricted) Chebyshev centers in few function spaces. For an extremally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $K$ and a finite dimensional Banach space $X$, we prove the existence of Chebyshev…

Let $V$ be an $r$-dimensional $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$-vector space. We call an $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspace $U$ of $V$ $h$-scattered if $U$ meets the $h$-dimensional $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$-subspaces of $V$ in $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspaces of dimension at most…

We prove an implicit function theorem for C^k-maps from arbitrary topological vector spaces over valued fields to Banach spaces (for k at least 2). As a tool, we show the C^k-dependence of fixed points on parameters for suitable families of…

We introduce a new class of Banach spaces, called generalized-lush spaces (GL-spaces for short), which contains almost-CL-spaces, separable lush spaces (specially, separable $C$-rich subspaces of $C(K)$), and even the two-dimensional space…

Let $A$ be a set and $V$ a real Hilbert space. Let $H$ be a real Hilbert space of functions $f:A\to V$ and assume $H$ is continuously embedded in the Banach space of bounded functions. For $i=1,\cdots,n$, let $(x_i,y_i)\in A\times V$…

It is shown here that if $(Y,\|\cdot\|_Y)$ is a Banach space in which martingale differences are unconditional (a UMD Banach space) then there exists $c=c(Y)\in (0,\infty)$ with the following property. For every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and…

Let $K$ be a compact Hausdorff space and let $H$ be a real or complex Hilbert space with dim$(H_\mathbb{R})\geq 2$. We prove that the space $C(K,H)$ of all $H$-valued continuous functions on $K$, equipped with the supremum norm, satisfies…

In the setting of a metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that the total variation of functions of bounded variation is lower semicontinuous with respect to $L^1$-convergence in…

In this paper, we propose a generalized notion of a distance function, called a $g$-metric. The $g$-metric with degree $n$ is a distance of $n+1$ points, generalizing the ordinary distance between two points and $G$-metric between three…

We consider a monotone increasing operator in an ordered Banach space having $u_-$ and $u_+$ as a strong super- and subsolution, respectively. In contrast with the well studied case $u_+ < u_-$, we suppose that $u_- < u_+$. Under the…

We study pathwise $p$-th variation of continuous paths on a compact interval along a fixed partition sequence. Although the class of continuous paths with finite $p$-th variation is generally not linear, we develop a coefficient-based…

We prove that if $K, L \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ are convex bodies such that $L$ is symmetric and the Banach-Mazur distance between $K$ and $L$ is equal to $2$, then $K$ is a triangle.

We define tests of boolean functions which distinguish between linear (or quadratic) polynomials, and functions which are very far, in an appropriate sense, from these polynomials. The tests have optimal or nearly optimal trade-offs between…

Let (X, d) be a quasi-convex, complete and separable metric space with reference probability measure m. We prove that the set of of real valued Lipschitz function with non zero point-wise Lipschitz constant m-almost everywhere is residual,…
