Deep neural network is a state-of-art method in modern science and technology. Much statistical literature have been devoted to understanding its performance in nonparametric estimation, whereas the results are suboptimal due to a redundant…

New proofs are given of the existence of the compensator (or dual predictable projection) of a locally integrable c\'adl\'ag adapted process of finite variation and of the existence of the quadratic variation process for a c\'adl\'ag local…

Extremal principles can generally be divided into two rather distinct classes. There are, on the one hand side, formulations based on the Lagrangian or Hamiltonian mechanics, respectively, dealing with time dependent problems, but…

We obtain local boundedness and maximum principles for weak subsolutions to certain infinitely degenerate elliptic divergence form equations, and the local boundedness turns out to be sharp in more than two dimensions, answering the `Moser…

In this work we prove a strong maximum principle for fractional elliptic problems with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary data which extends the one proved by J. D\'avila to the fractional setting. In particular, we present a comparison…

We consider the setting of two disks in a domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$ which are almost touching and have finite and positive conductivities, giving rise to a divergence form elliptic equation with discontinuous coefficients. We use the maximum…

This paper establishes a maximum principle for quasi-linear reflected backward stochastic partial differential equations (RBSPDEs for short). We prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution to RBSPDEs allowing for non-zero…

We consider distributed-order non-local fractional optimal control problems with controls taking values on a closed set and prove a strong necessary optimality condition of Pontryagin type. The possibility that admissible controls are…

Many physical systems share the property of scale invariance. Most of them show ordinary power-law scaling, where quantities can be expressed as a leading power law times a scaling function which depends on scaling-invariant ratios of the…

We introduce a novel technique for proving global strong discrete maximum principles for finite element discretizations of linear and semilinear elliptic equations for cases when the common, matrix-based sufficient conditions are not…

We prove that if an $n\times n$ matrix defined over ${\mathbb Q}_p$ (or more generally an arbitrary complete, discretely-valued, non-Archimedean field) satisfies a certain congruence property, then it has a strictly maximal eigenvalue in…

We establish results with an arithmetic flavor that generalize the polynomial multidimensional Szemeredi theorem and related multiple recurrence and convergence results in ergodic theory. For instance, we show that in all these statements…

Discrete maximum principles in the approximation of partial differential equations are crucial for the preservation of qualitative properties of physical models. In this work we enforce the discrete maximum principle by performing a simple…

We describe a very general abstract form of sieve based on a large sieve inequality which generalizes both the classical sieve inequality of Montgomery (and its higher-dimensional variants), and our recent sieve for Frobenius over function…

We prove a limiting absorption principle for linear Schroedinger equations in Lebesgue spaces. In particular, we do not require any polynomially decaying weights as in the classical Agmon estimate. The methods used are close to the…

Applying the Tubular Neighborhood Theorem, we give a short and new proof of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle on a smooth manifold. The idea is as follows. Given a control system on a manifold $M$, we embed it into an open subset of some…

Agreement of the probability current with the resolving paths requires a simplified forward equation for the (unique) Ito paths. Their increments are the most probable rather than expected ones, in accordance with an existing extremum…

We provide an alternative proof and expression of the Bellman function of the dyadic maximal operator in connection with the Dyadic Carleson Imbedding Theorem, which appears in [10]. We also evaluate the Bellman function of four variables…

We define a version of multiplier ideals, the Mather multiplier ideals, on a variety with arbitrary singularities, using the Mather discrepancy and the Jacobian ideal. In this context we prove a relative vanishing theorem, thus obtaining…
