It is shown that given a metric space $X$ and a $\sigma$-finite positive regular Borel measure $\mu$ on $X$, there exists a bounded continuous real-valued function on $X$ that is one-to-one on the complement of a set of $\mu$ measure zero.
We consider maximal kernel-operators on abstract measure spaces $(X,\mu)$ equipped with a ball-basis. We prove that under certain asymptotic condition on the kernels those operators maps boundedly BMO(X) into BLO(X), generalizing the…
In this paper, we prove Aubry's completeness stating conjecture that for a twist map the graph of rotation numbers as a function of the cohomology classes is a purely singularly continuous function (called complete devil's staircase by…
We consider linear iterated function systems with a random multiplicative error on the real line. Our system is $\{x\mapsto d_i + \lambda_i Y x\}_{i=1}^m$, where $d_i\in \R$ and $\lambda_i>0$ are fixed and $Y> 0$ is a random variable with…
Sanchez, Viader, Paradis and Carrillo (2016) proved that there exists an increasing continuous singular function $f$ on $[0,1]$ such that the set $A_f$ of points where $f$ has a nonzero finite derivative has Hausdorff dimension 1 in each…
We show that in the study of certain convolution operators, functions can be replaced by measures without changing the size of the constants appearing in weak type (1,1) inequalities. As an application, we prove that the best constants for…
The joint spectral radius of a finite set of real d x d matrices is defined to be the maximum possible exponential rate of growth of products of matrices drawn from that set. In previous work with K. G. Hare and J. Theys we showed that for…
Given a probability measure space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$, it is well known that the Riesz space $L^0(\mu)$ of equivalence classes of measurable functions $f: X \to \mathbf{R}$ is universally complete and the constant function $\mathbf{1}$ is a…
Let $0<\alpha<d$ and $1\leq p<d/\alpha$. We present a proof that for all $f\in W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ both the centered and the uncentered Hardy-Littlewood fractional maximal operator $\mathcal M_\alpha f$ are weakly differentiable and $…
From Sturmian and Christoffel words we derive a strictly increasing function $\Delta:[0,\infty)\to\mathbb{R}$. This function is continuous at every irrational point, while at rational points, left-continuous but not right-continuous.…
It was recently shown that the harmonic measure is absolutely continuous with respect to the Hausdorff measure on a domain with an $n-1$ dimensional uniformly rectifiable boundary, in the presence of now well understood additional…
In the first part of this paper we establish, in terms of so called k-tangential sets, a kind of optimal estimate for the size and structure of the set of non-differentiability of Lipshitz functions with one-sided directional derivatives.…
We first show that a continuous function f is nonnegative on a closed set $K\subseteq R^n$ if and only if (countably many) moment matrices of some signed measure $d\nu =fd\mu$ with support equal to K, are all positive semidefinite (if $K$…
We show that the discrete Hardy-Littlewood maximal functions associated with the Euclidean balls in $\mathbb Z^d$ with dyadic radii have bounds independent of the dimension on $\ell^p(\mathbb Z^d)$ for $p\in[2, \infty]$.
In this paper we study some questions about the continuity of classical and fractional maximal operators in the Sobolev space $W^{1,1}$, in both continuous and discrete setting, giving a positive answer to two questions posed recently, one…
For $1<p<\infty$ and $M$ the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator on $\mathbb{R}$, we consider whether there is some $\varepsilon=\varepsilon(p)>0$ such that $\|Mf\|_p\ge (1+\varepsilon)||f||_p$. We prove this for $1<p<2$. For $2\le…
As shown in [A1], the lowest constants appearing in the weak type (1,1) inequalities satisfied by the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator associated to certain finite radial measures, grow exponentially fast with the dimension. Here…
Continuous DR-submodular functions are a class of functions that satisfy the Diminishing Returns (DR) property, which implies that they are concave along non-negative directions. Existing works have studied monotone continuous DR-submodular…
If $f$ is an entire function and $a$ is a complex number, $a$ is said to be an asymptotic value of $f$ if there exists a path $\gamma$ from $0$ to infinity such that $f(z) - a$ tends to $0$ as $z$ tends to infinity along $\gamma$. The…
In this note, we study a quantitative extension of the John-Nirenberg inequality for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function of a $\operatorname{BMO}$ function. More precisely, for every nonconstant locally integrable function $f$ such that…
