It is proved that the minimal Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian in an annulus is a monotonically decreasing function of the displacement of the center of the smaller disc. The maximal value of the minimal eigenvalue is attained when the…
We show that gradient descent can converge to any local minimum of a smooth semi-algebraic function. This holds if the step sizes are nonsummable and sufficiently small. The same results hold for the subgradient method on locally Lipschitz…
It is shown that the extension of $\R$ by a generic smooth function restricted to the unit cube is o-minimal. The generalization to countably many generic smooth functions is indicated. Possible applications are sketched.
In this very short paper, we provide a strong motivation for the study of the following problem: given a real normed space $E$, a closed, convex, unbounded set $X\subseteq E$ and a function $f:X\to X$, find suitable conditions under which,…
We study dispersive decay for non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems. While the general theory for dispersion in such non-autonomous systems is largely open, it was shown \cite{kraisler2025time} that there exists a time-periodically forced…
We consider operator-valued differential Lyapunov and Riccati equations, where the operators $B$ and $C$ may be relatively unbounded with respect to $A$ (in the standard notation). In this setting, we prove that the singular values of the…
It is a classical result that every subharmonic function, defined and ${\mathcal{L}}^p$-integrable for some $p$, $0<p<+\infty$, on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane ${\mathbb{C}}$ is for almost all $\theta$ of the form $o((1-|…
Let ${\mathcal A}$ denote the family of all functions $f$ analytic in the unit disk $\ID$ and satisfying the normalization $f(0)=0= f'(0)-1$. Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the subclass of ${\mathcal A}$ consisting of univalent functions in…
The weak lower semicontinuity of the functional $$ F(u)=\int_{\Omega}f(x,u,\nabla u)\, dx$$ is a classical topic that was studied thoroughly. It was shown that if the function $f$ is continuous and convex in the last variable, the…
This paper studies loss functions for finite sets. For a given finite set $S$, we give sum-of-square type loss functions of minimum degree. When $S$ is the vertex set of a standard simplex, we show such loss functions have no spurious…
We consider a perturbed ordinary differential equation where the perturbation is only significant when a one-dimensional null recurrent diffusion is close to zero. We investigate the first order correction to the unperturbed system and…
We investigate the shrinking target and recurrence set associated to non-autonomous measure-preserving systems on compact metric spaces, establishing zero-one criteria in the spirit of classical Borel-Cantelli results. Our first main…
We prove in this paper the weak consistency of a general finite volume convection operator acting on discrete functions which are possibly not piecewise-constant over the cells of the mesh and over the time steps. It yields an extension of…
Analytic self-maps of the unit disc whose hyperbolic derivative is uniformly bounded by a constant smaller than one, are called contractive. We describe these maps in terms of their Aleksandrov-Clark measures and in terms of their…
We prove that a function $f:X\to Y$ from a first-countable (more generally, Preiss-Simon) space $X$ to a regular space $Y$ is weakly discontinuous (which means that every subspace $A\subset X$ contains an open dense subset $U\subset A$ such…
This article investigates the role of the regularity of the test function when considering the weak error for standard discretizations of SPDEs of the form $dX(t)=AX(t)dt+F(X(t))dt+dW(t)$, driven by space-time white noise. In previous…
Let $f: B^n \rightarrow {\mathbb R}$ be a $d+1$ times continuously differentiable function on the unit ball $B^n$, with $\max_{z\in B^n} \| f(z) \|=1$. A well-known fact is that if $f$ vanishes on a set $Z\subset B^n$ with a non-empty…
Let $u\not\equiv -\infty$ be a subharmonic function on the complex plane $\mathbb C$. In 2016, we obtained a result on the existence of an entire function $f\neq 0$ satisfying the estimate $\log|f|\leq {\sf B}_u$ on $\mathbb C$, where…
For a compact set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^m$, we have two indexes given under simple parameters of the set $K$ (these parameters go back to Besicovitch and Taylor in the late 50's). In the present paper we prove that with the exception of a…
Let ${\mathcal S}$ denote the family of all univalent functions $f$ in the unit disk $\ID$ with the normalization $f(0)=0= f'(0)-1$. There is an intimate relationship between the operator $P_f(z)=f(z)/f'(z)$ and the Danikas-Ruscheweyh…
