We generalize a bi-Lipschitz extension result of David and Semmes from Euclidean spaces to complete metric measure spaces with controlled geometry (Ahlfors regularity and supporting a Poincar\'e inequality). In particular, we find sharp…
We study the asymptotics in $L^2$ for complexity penalized least squares regression for the discrete approximation of finite-dimensional signals on continuous domains - e.g. images - by piecewise smooth functions. We introduce a fairly…
By analyzing the affine Taylor expansion of a non-degenerate plane curve, we obtain characterizations of classes of such curves via curvature properties of the gravity curve. The proof is based on an analysis of the degree parity and…
Reparametrization invariant Sobolev metrics on spaces of regular curves have been shown to be of importance in the field of mathematical shape analysis. For practical applications, one usually discretizes the space of smooth curves and…
If a real analytic nonexpansive map on a polyhedral normed space has a nonempty fixed point set, then we show that there is an isometry from an affine subspace onto the fixed point set. As a corollary, we prove that for any real analytic…
One considers a system on $\mathbb{C}^2$ close to an invariant curve which can be viewed as a generalization of the semi-standard map to a trigonometric polynomial with many Fourier modes. The radius of convergence of an analytic…
The estimates of the uniform norm of the Chebyshev polynomials associated with a compact set $K$ in the complex plane are established. These estimates are exact (up to a constant factor) in the case where $K$ consists of a finite number of…
We study best approximation to a given function, in the least square sense on a subset of the unit circle, by polynomials of given degree which are pointwise bounded on the complementary subset. We show that the solution to this problem, as…
We show that the proportion of plane cubic curves over ${\mathbb Q}_p$ that have a ${\mathbb Q}_p$-rational point is a rational function in $p$, where the rational function is independent of $p$, and we determine this rational function…
We consider the series of the Bergman orthogonal polynomials associated with a bounded simply-connected domain in the complex plane, whose boundary is a Jordan curve. These are the polynomials that are orthonormal with respect to the area…
Using the theory of quasiconformal mappings, we simplify the proof of the recent result by Taylor and Totik (see IMA Journal of Numerical Analysis 30 (2010) 462--486) on the behavior of the Lebesgue constants for interpolation points on a…
We study rational curves on algebraic varieties, especially on normal affine varieties endowed with a $\C^*$-action. For varieties with an isolated singularity, we show that the presence of sufficiently many rational curves outside the…
The projective hull X^ of a subset X in complex projective space P^n is an analogue of the classical polynomial hull of a set in C^n. If X is contained in an affine chart C^n on P^n, then the affine part of X^ is the set of points x in C^n…
The paper is devoted to studying the image of probability measures on a Hilbert space under finite-dimensional analytic maps. We establish sufficient conditions under which the image of a measure has a density with respect to the Lebesgue…
A generalization of the Lebesgue number lemma is obtained. It is proved that, if each countably infinite locally finite open cover of a chainable metric space $X$ has a Lebesgue number, then $X$ is totally bounded. A property of metric…
We generalize Siegel's theorem on integral points on affine curves to integral points of bounded degree, giving a complete characterization of affine curves with infinitely many integral points of degree d or less over some number field.…
Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with a bounded density $f$. We prove that the marginals of $f$ on most subspaces are well-bounded. For product measures, studied recently by Rudelson and Vershynin, our results show there…
Polynomial meshes (called sometimes "norming sets") allow us to estimate the supremum norm of polynomials on a fixed compact set by the norm on its discrete subset. We give a general construction of polynomial weakly admissible meshes on…
Two plane analytic branches are topologically equivalent if and only if they have the same multiplicity sequence. We show that having same semigroup is equivalent to having same multiplicity sequence, we calculate the semigroup from a…
A criterion for the existence of a plane model of an algebraic curve such that the Galois closures of projections from two points are the same is presented. As an application, it is proved that the Hermitian curve in positive characteristic…
