This short note introduces a simple symmetric contraction property for functionals. This property clearly characterizes Dirichlet forms in the linear case. We show that it also characterizes Dirichlet forms in the non-linear case.…

We study the singularity (multifractal) spectrum of continuous convex functions defined on $[0,1]^{d}$. Let $E_f({h}) $ be the set of points at which $f$ has a pointwise exponent equal to $h$. We first obtain general upper bounds for the…

Given a symmetric Dirichlet form $(\mathcal{E},\mathcal{F})$ on a (non-trivial) $\sigma$-finite measure space $(E,\mathcal{B},m)$ with associated Markovian semigroup $\{T_{t}\}_{t\in(0,\infty)}$, we prove that $(\mathcal{E},\mathcal{F})$ is…

Given a compact doubling metric measure space $X$ that supports a $2$-Poincar\'e inequality, we construct a Dirichlet form on $N^{1,2}(X)$ that is comparable to the upper gradient energy form on $N^{1,2}(X)$. Our approach is based on the…

We consider a countably generated and uniformly closed algebra of bounded functions. We assume that there is a lower semicontinuous, with respect to the supremum norm, quadratic form and that normal contractions operate in a certain sense.…

It is shown that the theory of real symmetric second-order elliptic operators in divergence form on $\Ri^d$ can be formulated in terms of a regular strongly local Dirichlet form irregardless of the order of degeneracy. The behaviour of the…

In this paper, we study the properties of integral functionals induced on $L^1_E (S,\mu)$ by closed convex functions on a Euclidean space $E$. We give sufficient conditions for such integral functions to be strongly rotund (well-posed). We…

We study the Dirichlet problem for fully nonlinear, degenerate elliptic equations of the form f(Hess, u)=0 on a smoothly bounded domain D in R^n. In our approach the equation is replaced by a subset F of the space of symmetric nxn-matrices,…

We prove that if ${\mathcal E} \subset {\Bbb R}^{2d}$, $d \ge 2$, is an Ahlfors-David regular product set of sufficiently large Hausdorff dimension, denoted by $dim_{{\mathcal H}}({\mathcal E})$, and $\phi$ is a sufficiently regular…

The classical Pfaff-Darboux theorem, which provides local 'normal forms' for $1$-forms on manifolds, has applications in the theory of certain economic models [Chiappori P.-A., Ekeland I., Found. Trends Microecon. 5 (2009), 1-151]. However,…

In this paper we investigate the boundedness properties of bilinear multiplier operators associated with unimodular functions of the form $m(\xi,\eta)=e^{i \phi(\xi-\eta)}$. We prove that if $\phi$ is a $C^1(\mathbb R^n)$ real-valued…

Consider --- for the generator \({-}A\) of a symmetric contraction semigroup over some measure space $\mathrm{X}$, $1\le p < \infty$, $q$ the dual exponent and given measurable functions $F_j,\: G_j : \mathbb{C}^d \to \mathbb{C}$ --- the…

We prove the little Grothendieck theorem for any 2-convex noncommutative symmetric space. Let $\M$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a normal faithful semifinite trace $\t$, and let $E$ be an r.i. space on $(0, \8)$. Let $E(\M)$ be the…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a compact $d$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^N$ with reach $\tau$ and volume $V_{\mathcal M}$. Fix $\epsilon \in (0,1)$. In this paper we prove that a nonlinear function $f: \mathbb{R}^N \rightarrow…

In this article we study lower semicontinuous, convex functionals on real Hilbert spaces. In the first part of the article we construct a Banach space that serves as the energy space for such functionals. In the second part we study…

For an $(n\ge 2)$-dimensional real Banach space $E$ with unit ball $E_{\le 1}$ and a topological space $X$ arbitrary elements in $C(X,E_{\le 1})$ are always expressible as linear combinations of at most three functions valued in the unit…

The standard twist $F(s,\alpha)$ of $L$-functions $F(s)$ in the Selberg class has several interesting properties and plays a central role in the Selberg class theory. It is therefore natural to study its finer analytic properties, for…

We consider symmetric non-negative definite bilinear forms on algebras of bounded real valued functions and investigate closability with respect to the supremum norm. In particular, any Dirichlet form gives rise to a sup-norm closable…

We prove an inversion theorem for the Fourier transform defined for normal functions, in the case when such functions are of moderate decrease, and in dimensions 2 and 3. This improves on Carleson's general almost everywhere convergence…

We prove that, given a constant $K> 2$ and a bounded linear operator $T$ from a JB$^*$-triple $E$ into a complex Hilbert space $H$, there exists a norm-one functional $\psi\in E^*$ satisfying $$\|T(x)\| \leq K \, \|T\| \, \|x\|_{\psi},$$…
