Given a family of continuous real functions $\mathcal{G}$, let $R_\mathcal{G}$ be a binary relation defined as follows: a continuous function $f\colon\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is in the relation with a closed set $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}$ if…
In this paper we show that Mergelyan's theorem holds for maps from open Riemann surfaces to Oka manifolds. This is used to prove the analogue of Arakelian's theorem on uniform approximation of holomorphic maps from closed subsets of the…
Let $E$ be an arbitrary subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (not necessarily bounded), and $f:E\to\mathbb{R}$, $G:E\to\mathbb{R}^n$ be functions. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the $1$-jet $(f,G)$ to have an extension $(F, \nabla…
A class of graphs closed under taking induced subgraphs is $\chi$-bounded if there exists a function $f$ such that for all graphs $G$ in the class, $\chi(G) \leq f(\omega(G))$. We consider the following question initially studied in [A.…
The aim of this expository article is to present recent developments in the centuries old discussion on the interrelations between continuous and differentiable real valued functions of one real variable. The truly new results include,…
We consider families F of sequences converging to +infinity that F satisfies the following condition (C): (C): if an open set U in the real line is unbounded above then there exists a sequence belonging to F, which has an infinite number of…
Let g denote a real analytic function on an open subset U of Euclidean space, and let S denote the boundary points of U where g does not admit a local analytic extension. We show that if g is semialgebraic (respectively, globally…
This article establishes a complete approximate axiomatization for the real-closed field $\mathbb{R}$ expanded with all differentially-defined functions, including special functions such as $\sin(x), \cos(x), e^x, \dots$. Every true…
We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…
We study the ring of rational functions admitting a continuous extension to the real affine space. We establish several properties of this ring. In particular, we prove a strong Nullstelensatz. We study the scheme theoretic properties and…
If $V$ is an analytic set in a pseudoconvex domain $\Omega$, we show there is always a pseudoconvex domain $G \subseteq \Omega$ that contains $V$ and has the property that every bounded holomorphic function on $V$ extends to a bounded…
We study two classes of extension problems, and their interconnections: (i) Extension of positive definite (p.d.) continuous functions defined on subsets in locally compact groups $G$; (ii) In case of Lie groups, representations of the…
We consider postcritically finite rational maps $f\colon \widehat{\mathbb{C}} \to \widehat{\mathbb{C}}$ whose Julia set is the whole Riemann sphere $\widehat{\mathbb{C}}$. We call such a map an expanding rational Thurston map. Identifying…
Given a densely defined and closed operator $A$ acting on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between its closed extensions and subspaces $\mathfrak{M}\subset\mathcal{D}(A^*)$, that are closed…
We prove two main results on Denjoy-Carleman classes: (1) a composite function theorem which asserts that a function f(x) in a quasianalytic Denjoy-Carleman class Q, which is formally composite with a generically submersive mapping y=h(x)…
Building upon previous works of Andr{\'e} and Chudnovsky, we prove a general result concerning the approximations of values at rational points a/b of any G-function F with rational Taylor coefficients by fractions of the form n/(B…
For a compact subset $K$ of the complex plane $\mathbb C,$ let $C(K)$ denote the algebra of continuous functions on $K$. For an open subset $U \subset K,$ let $A(K,U) \subset C(K)$ be the algebra of functions that are analytic in $U.$ We…
We examine conditions on a (compact metrizable) space $X$ such that for any space $Y$ and closed subspace $Z$, the set of continuous functions from $Z$ to $X$ which extend to $Y$ is either open or closed in the set of continuous functions…
We prove a structure theorem for stable functions on amenable groups, which extends the arithmetic regularity lemma for stable subsets of finite groups. Given a group $G$, a function $f\colon G\to [-1,1]$ is called stable if the binary…
We study continuity and regularity of convex extensions of functions from a compact set $C$ to its convex hull $K$. We show that if $C$ contains the relative boundary of $K$, and $f$ is a continuous convex function on $C$, then $f$ extends…
