The aim of this article is to study the regularity properties of the Wilton functions $W_\alpha$ associated with $\alpha$-continued fractions. We prove that the Wilton function is BMO for $\alpha\in[1-g,g]$ (where $g:=\frac{\sqrt{5}-1}{2}$…
The Brjuno and Wilton functions bear a striking resemblance, despite their very different origins; while the Brjuno function $B(x)$ is a fundamental tool in one-dimensional holomorphic dynamics, the Wilton function $W(x)$ stems from the…
The continued fraction expansion of the real number $x=a_0+x_0, a_0\in {\ZZ},$ is given by $0\leq x_n<1, x_{n}^{-1}=a_{n+1}+ x_{n+1}, a_{n+1}\in {\NN},$ for $n\geq 0.$ The Brjuno function is then $B(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}x_0x_1...…
The Brjuno function was introduced by Yoccoz to study the linearizability of holomorphic germs and other one-dimensional small divisor problems. The Brjuno functions associated with various continued fractions including the by-excess…
We determine the $1$-exponent (according to the Calder\'on-Zygmund definition) of the Brjuno function $B$ everywhere, thus showing that it is a new example of multifractal function. We also discuss various notions of pointwise regularity of…
For \alpha in the interval [0,1], we consider the one-parameter family of \alpha-continued fraction maps, which include the Gauss map (\alpha=1) and the nearest integer (\alpha=1/2) and by-excess (\alpha=0) continued fraction maps. To each…
In this paper we study some local and global regularity properties of Fourier series obtained as fractional integrals of modular forms. In particular we characterize the differentiability at rational points, determine their H\"older…
We study a new class of functions that arise naturally in quaternionic analysis, we call them "quasi regular functions". Like the well-known quaternionic regular functions, these functions provide representations of the quaternionic…
New upper and lower bounds on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity are given in terms of the Hilbert coefficients. Examples are provided to show that these bounds are in some sense nearly sharp.
Classically, theorems of Fatou and Julia describe the boundary regularity of functions in one complex variable. The former says that a complex analytic function on the disk has non-tangential boundary values almost everywhere, and the…
The Brjuno function arises naturally in the study of one--dimensional analytic small divisors problems. It belongs to $\hbox{BMO}({\Bbb T}^{1})$ and it is stable under H\"older perturbations. It is related to the size of Siegel disks by…
Modular equations occur in number theory, but it is less known that such equations also occur in the study of deformation properties of quasiconformal mappings. The authors study two important plane quasiconformal distortion functions,…
In this paper we study the regularity properties of fractional maximal operators acting on $BV$-functions. We establish new bounds for the derivative of the fractional maximal function, both in the continuous and in the discrete settings.
Extending the notion of bounded variation, a function $u \in L_c^1(\mathbb R^n)$ is of bounded fractional variation with respect to some exponent $\alpha$ if there is a finite constant $C \geq 0$ such that the estimate \[ \biggl|\int u(x)…
We introduce different classical characteristics used to regularize a subharmonic function and compare them. As an application we give a complete proof of a useful characterization of the modulus of continuity of such functions in terms of…
Bounds on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the associated graded modules of k-Buchsbaum modules M are given in terms of k and some other invariants of M.
We investigate the behavior of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity with respect to some classical functors : Tor, the Frobenius functor in positive characteristic, taking a power or a product (on ideals). These generalizes and refines previous…
The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of a module gives a rough measure of its complexity. We bound the regularity of a module given a system of approximating modules whose regularities are known. Such approximations can arise naturally for…
In this paper, we study modularity of several functions which naturally arose in a recent paper of Lau and Zhou on open Gromov-Witten potentials of elliptic orbifolds. They derived a number of examples of indefinite theta functions, and we…
Ramanujan's last letter to Hardy explored the asymptotic properties of modular forms, as well as those of certain interesting $q$-series which he called \emph{mock theta functions}. For his mock theta function $f(q)$, he claimed that as $q$…
