In 1934, Whitney raised the question of how to recognize whether a function f defined on a closed subset X of Euclidean space is the restriction of a function that is continuously differentiable to order p. A necessary and sufficient…

Let $A$ be a selfadjoint operator in a separable Hilbert space, $K$ a selfadjoint Hilbert-Schmidt operator, and $f\in C^n(\mathbb{R})$. We establish that $\varphi(t)=f(A+tK)-f(A)$ is $n$-times continuously differentiable on $\mathbb{R}$ in…

We find an equivalent condition for a real function $f:[a,b]\to\R$ to be Lebesgue equivalent to an $n$-times differentiable function ($n\geq 2$); a simple solution in the case $n=2$ appeared in an earlier paper. For that purpose, we…

Fix a unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathscr{A}$, and write $\mathscr{A}_{sa}$ for the set of self-adjoint elements of $\mathscr{A}$. Also, if $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{C}$ is a continuous function, then write…

We prove that for every function $f:X\to Y$, where $X$ is a separable Banach space and $Y$ is a Banach space with RNP, there exists a set $A\in\tilde\mcA$ such that $f$ is Gateaux differentiable at all $x\in S(f)\setminus A$, where $S(f)$…

We prove that a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$ is Toeplitz if and only if there are a Dirichlet character $\chi$ and a finite subset $F$ of prime numbers such that $f(n)=\chi(n)$ for each $n$ which is coprime to all…

This paper studies a large class of continuous functions $f:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}^d$ whose range is the attractor of an iterated function system $\{S_1,\dots,S_{m}\}$ consisting of similitudes. This class includes such classical examples as…

For each positive integer $n$, function $f$, and point $c$, the GGR Theorem states that $f$ is $n$ times Peano differentiable at $c$ if and only if $f$ is $n-1$ times Peano differentiable at $c$ and the following $n$-th generalized…

This is a conitunation of [1] and [2]. We prove that if function $f$ belongs to the class $\Lambda_{\omega} \overset{\text{def}}{=} \{f: \omega_{f}(\delta)\leq \text{const} \omega(\delta)\} $ for an arbitrary modulus of continuity $\omega$,…

Given a function $f:(0,\infty)\rightarrow\RR$ and a positive semidefinite $n\times n$ matrix $P$, one may define a trace functional on positive definite $n\times n$ matrices as $A\mapsto \Tr(Pf(A))$. For differentiable functions $f$, the…

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a tempered distribution $F\in S'(R)$ to be positive definite. A generalized Cauchy transform $\widetilde{F}$ of $F$ is used as a numerical continuation of $F$ to the open upper and lower…

We establish several results concerning the expected general phenomenon that, given a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{C}$, the values of $f(n)$ and $f(n+a)$ are "generally" independent unless $f$ is of a "special" form.…

We prove that a function f from Z_p to itself is analytic if and only if it can be represented as f(x)=F(x, dx, ..., d^r x) where dx=(x-x^p)/p is the Fermat quotient operator and F is a restricted power series with coefficients in Z_p.

Let $f \in C^n(\mathbb{R})$ be such that $\Vert f^{(n)} \Vert_\infty < \infty$. Let $f^{[n]} \in C(\mathbb{R}^{n+1})$ be the $n$th order divided difference. A special case of our main result states that for $1 < p < \infty$ we have \[\Vert…
