The dominated convergence theorem implies that if (f_n) is a sequence of functions on a probability space taking values in the interval [0,1], and (f_n) converges pointwise a.e., then the sequence of integrals converges to the integral of…

Theorem 1 Let F:N-->R stand for any function which a) $F$ monotonically weakly increases; b) $F$ tends to infinity; and c) such that $q/F(q)$ tends to infinity. Let Z_F(q) equal the number of divisors of q less than sqrt{F(q)} minus the…

Given a free group $F_k$ of rank $k\ge 2$ with a fixed set of free generators we associate to any homomorphism $\phi$ from $F_k$ to a group $G$ with a left-invariant semi-norm a generic stretching factor, $\lambda(\phi)$, which is a…

Let phi denote Euler's phi function. For a fixed odd prime we give an asymptotic series expansion in the sense of Poincare for the number E_q(x) of n<=x such that q does not divide phi(n). Thereby we improve on a recent theorem of B.K.…

We show that for any $\varepsilon>0$ if $\phi:\mathbb{T} \rightarrow \mathbb{T}$ is continuous and $\|\exp(-2\pi i z \phi)\|_{A(\mathbb{T})} =O_{|z|\rightarrow \infty}(\log^{\frac{1}{8}-\varepsilon} |z|)$ then $\phi(x)=wx+t$ for some $w…

If A is a nonnegative matrix whose associated directed graph is strongly connected, the Perron-Frobenius theorem asserts that A has an eigenvector in the positive cone, (R^+)^n. We associate a directed graph to any homogeneous, monotone…

Some known constraints on Renormalization Group flow take the form of inequalities: in even dimensions they refer to the coefficient $a$ of the Weyl anomaly, while in odd dimensions to the sphere free energy $F$. In recent work…

In [Appl. Comput. Harmon. Anal., 46(3):664-673, 2019], O. Christensen and M. Hasannasab observed that assuming the existence of an operator $T$ sending $e_n$ to $e_{n+1}$ for all $n \in \mathbb{N}$ (where $(e_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is a…

A classical result in approximation theory states that for any continuous function \( \varphi: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \), the set \( \operatorname{span}\{\varphi \circ g : g \in \operatorname{Aff}(\mathbb{R})\} \) is dense in \(…

For positive integers $1 \leq k \leq n$ let $M_n$ be the algebra of all $n \times n$ complex matrices and $M_n^{\le k}$ its subset consisting of all matrices of rank at most $k$. We first show that whenever $k>\frac{n}{2}$, any continuous…

We analyse the class of convex functionals $\mathcal E$ over $\mathrm{L}^2(X,m)$ for a measure space $(X,m)$ introduced by Cipriani and Grillo and generalising the classic bilinear Dirichlet forms. We investigate whether such non-bilinear…

Let $p \in (0, \infty)$ be a constant and let $\{\xi_n\} \subset L^p(\Omega, {\mathcal F}, \P)$ be a sequence of random variables. For any integers $m, n \ge 0$, denote $S_{m, n} = \sum_{k=m}^{m + n} \xi_k$. It is proved that, if there…

Let $f\colon \mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ be a continuous and strictly monotone function. In the main result of this paper, we show that, for a fixed $n\geq 2$, the $n$-variable mean $\mathscr{A}_f \colon \mathbb{R}_+^n \to \mathbb{R}_+$…

We discuss some surprising phenomena from basic calculus related to oscillating functions and to the theorem on the differentiability of inverse functions. Among other things, we see that a continuously differentiable function with a strict…

We prove a "Generic Equivalence Theorem which says that two affine morphisms $p: S \to Y$ and $q: T \to Y$ of varieties with isomorphic (closed) fibers become isomorphic under a dominant etale base change $\phi: U \to Y$. A special case is…

In this paper we prove a basic theorem which says that if f : F_p^n -> [0,1] has the property that ||f^||_(1/3) is not too ``large''(actually, it also holds for quasinorms 1/2-\delta in place of 1/3), and E(f) = p^{-n} sum_m f(m) is not too…

Motivated by the Maximum Theorem for convex functions (in the setting of linear spaces) and for subadditive functions (in the setting of Abelian semigroups), we establish a Maximum Theorem for the class of generalized convex functions,…

According to [5] we define the $*$-exponential of a slice-regular function, which can be seen as a generalization of the complex exponential to quaternions. Explicit formulas for $\exp_*(f)$ are provided, also in terms of suitable sine and…

The main purpose of this paper is to give characterization theorems on derivations as well as on linear functions. Among others the following problem will be investigated: Let $n\in\mathbb{Z}$, $f, g\colon\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be…

Favard's theorem characterizes bases of functions $\{p_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{Z}_+}$ for which $x p_n(x)$ is a linear combination of $p_{n-1}(x)$, $p_n(x)$, and $p_{n+1}(x)$ for all $n \geq 0$ with $p_{0}\equiv1$ (and $p_{-1}\equiv 0$ by…
