We study subharmonic functions whose Laplacian is supported on a null set and in connected components of of the complement to the support admit harmonic extensions to larger sets. We prove that if such a function has a piecewise holomorphic…
Given a compact set $K$ in the plane, which does not contain any triple of points forming a vertical and a horizontal segment, and a map $f\in C(K)$, we give a construction of functions $g,h\in C(\mathbb R)$ such that $f(x,y)=g(x)+h(y)$ for…
In this work we construct subdivision schemes refining general subsets of R^n and study their applications to the approximation of set-valued functions. Differently from previous works on set-valued approximation, our methods are developed…
A characteristic property of cohomology with compact support is the long exact sequence that connects the compactly supported cohomology groups of a space, an open subspace and its complement. Given an arbitrary cohomology theory of…
Black-box model structures are dominated by large multivariate functions. Usually a generic basis function expansion is used, e.g. a polynomial basis, and the parameters of the function are tuned given the data. This is a pragmatic and…
We consider estimating a compact set from finite data by approximating the support function of that set via sublinear regression. Support functions uniquely characterize a compact set up to closure of convexification, and are sublinear…
A new equivalence notion between non-stationary subdivision schemes, termed asymptotical similarity, which is weaker than asymptotical equivalence, is introduced and studied. It is known that asymptotical equivalence between a…
We consider an entropy-type invariant which measures the polynomial volume growth of submanifolds under the iterates of a map, and we establish sharp uniform lower bounds of this invariant for the following classes of symplectomorphisms of…
Fold functions are a general mechanism for computing over recursive data structures. First-order folds compute results bottom-up. With higher-order folds, computations that inherit attributes from above can also be expressed. In this paper,…
We introduce the notion of envelope of a topological algebra (in particular, an arbitrary associative algebra) with respect to a class of Banach algebras. In the case of the class of real Banach algebras of polynomial growth, i.e.,…
We define a class of multiparameter persistence modules that arise from a one-parameter family of functions on a topological space and prove that these persistence modules are stable. We show that this construction can produce…
A deep approximation is an approximating function defined by composing more than one layer of simple functions. We study deep approximations of functions of one variable using layers consisting of low-degree polynomials or simple conformal…
Phase-type (PH) distributions are a popular tool for the analysis of univariate risks in numerous actuarial applications. Their multivariate counterparts (MPH$^\ast$), however, have not seen such a proliferation, due to lack of explicit…
A class of subharmonic functions are proved to have the growth estimates $u(x)= o(x_n^{1-\frac{\alpha}{p}}|x|^{\frac{\gamma}{p}+\frac{n-1}{q}-n+\frac{\alpha}{p}})$ at infinity in the upper half space of ${\bf R}^{n}$, which generalizes the…
In this paper, we develop a space-time upscaling framework that can be used for many challenging porous media applications without scale separation and high contrast. Our main focus is on nonlinear differential equations with multiscale…

Let $u\not\equiv -\infty$ and $M\not\equiv -\infty$ are two subharmonic functions in the complex plane $\mathbb C$ with the Riesz measures $\nu_u$ and $\mu_M$ such that $u(z)\leq O(|z|)$ and $M(z)\leq O(|z|)$ as $z\to \infty$. If the growth…
Spaces of convex and concave functions appear naturally in theory and applications. For example, convex regression and log-concave density estimation are important topics in nonparametric statistics. In stochastic portfolio theory, concave…
By using a cocycle generated by the step function $\varphi_{\beta, \gamma} = 1_{[0, \beta]} - 1_{[0, \beta]} (. + \gamma)$ over an irrational rotation $x \to x + \alpha \mod 1$, we present examples which illustrate different aspects of the…
We provide sufficient conditions on a family of functions $(\phi_\alpha)_{\alpha\in A}:\mathbb{R}^d\to\mathbb{R}$ for sampling of multivariate bandlimited functions at certain nonuniform sequences of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We consider…
