We study a quantity called discrete layered entropy, which approximates the Shannon entropy within a logarithmic gap. Compared to the Shannon entropy, the discrete layered entropy is piecewise linear, approximates the expected length of the…

We prove a strong law of large numbers for a class of strongly mixing processes. Our result rests on recent advances in understanding of concentration of measure. It is simple to apply and gives finite-sample (as opposed to asymptotic)…

We study the statistical properties of piecewise expanding maps in the general setting of metric measure spaces. We provide sufficient conditions for exponential mixing of such systems with explicit estimates on the constants. We also…

The vector field of a mixed-monotone system is decomposable via a decomposition function into increasing (cooperative) and decreasing (competitive) components, and this decomposition allows for, e.g., efficient computation of reachable sets…

We study the universal closest refinement problem on measurable bipartite relations over standard Borel spaces. Given prescribed side measures, the feasible class consists of finite refinement plans concentrated on the relation and carrying…

Using the variational method, it is shown that the set of all strong peak functions in a closed algebra $A$ of $C_b(K)$ is dense if and only if the set of all strong peak points is a norming subset of $A$. As a corollary we can induce the…

The classical Choquet theorem establishes a barycentric decomposition for elements in a compact convex subset of a locally convex topological vector space. This decomposition is achieved through a probability measure that is supported on…

We construct an increasing sequence of natural numbers $(m_n)_{n=1}^{+\infty}$ with the property that $(m_n \th [1])_{n\geq 1}$ is dense in $\T$ for any $\th \in \R\setminus \Q$, and a continuous measure on the circle $\mu$ such that…

We prove some basic results for a dynamical system given by a piecewise linear and contractive map on the unit interval that takes two possible values at a point of discontinuity. We prove that there exists a universal limit cycle in the…

We propose a new class of hypertopologies, called here weak$^{\ast }$ hypertopologies, on the dual space $\mathcal{X}^{\ast }$ of a real or complex topological vector space $\mathcal{X}$. The most well-studied and well-known hypertopology…
