We prove Banach, Newton-Raphson and Brouwer fixed point theorems in the framework of generalized smooth functions, a minimal extension of Colombeau's theory (and hence of classical distribution theory) which makes it possible to model…

We show that if we start from a symmetric lower semi-bounded Schr\"odinger operator $\mathcal{H}$ on finitely supported functions on a discrete weighted graph (satisfying certain conditions), apply the Friedrichs construction to get a…

The article is devoted to the investigation of smoothness of functions $f(x_1,...,x_m)$ of variables $x_1,...,x_m$ in infinite fields with non-trivial multiplicative ultra-norms, where $m\ge 2$. Theorems about classes of smoothness $C^n$ or…

We develop non-invertible Pesin theory for a new class of maps called cusp maps. These maps may have unbounded derivative, but nevertheless verify a property analogous to $C^{1+\epsilon}$. We do not require the critical points to verify a…

We describe an efficient construction of a canonical non-commutative deformation of the algebraic functions on the moduli spaces of flat connections on a Riemann surface. We show that this algebra, which is a variant of the quantum moduli…

Noncommutative functions are graded functions between sets of square matrices of all sizes over two vector spaces that respect direct sums and similarities. They possess very strong regularity properties (reminiscent of the regularity…

The classical lemma of Borel reads: any power series with real coefficients is the Taylor series of a smooth function. Algebraically this means the surjectivity of the completion map at a point, $C^\infty(\Bbb{R}^n) \twoheadrightarrow…

In a recent paper [5] a smooth function f : [0; 1] --> R with all derivatives vanishing at 0 has been considered and a global condition, showing that f is indeed identically 0, has been presented. The purpose of this note is to replace the…

Let $C$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (not necessarily convex), $f:C\to\mathbb{R}$ be a function, and $G:C\to\mathbb{R}^n$ be a uniformly continuous function, with modulus of continuity $\omega$. We provide a necessary and sufficient…

In this paper we prove finiteness principles for $C^{m}\left( \mathbb{R}^{n}, \mathbb{R}^{D}\right) $-selection, and for $C^{m-1,1}\left( \mathbb{R}^{n}, \mathbb{R}^{D}\right) $-selection, in particular providing a proof for a conjecture of…

In the previous paper [25], Stolarsky's invariance principle, known for point distributions on the Euclidean spheres [27], has been extended to the real, complex, and quaternionic projective spaces and the octonionic projective plane.…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold and $h$ a smooth function on $M$. Let $\rho^h(x)=\inf_{|v|=1}\left(Ric_x(v,v)-2Hess(h)_x(v,v) \right)$. Here $Ric_x$ denotes the Ricci curvature at $x$ and $Hess(h)$ is the Hessian of $h$. Then $M$…

Let $L^m_p(R^n)$, $p\in [1,\infty]$, be the homogeneous Sobolev space, and let $E\subset R^n$ be a closed set. For each $p>n$ and each non-negative integer $m$ we give an intrinsic characterization of the restrictions to $E$ of $m$-jets…

In this article, we prove two new versions of a theorem proven by Efron in [Efr65]. Efron's theorem says that if a function $\phi : \mathbb{R}^2 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is non-decreasing in each argument then we have that the function $s…

Extending the results of Borichev--Golinskii--Kupin [2009], we obtain refined Blaschke-type necessary conditions on the zero distribution of analytic functions on the unit disk and on the complex plane with a cut along the positive…

In this work we prove that certain entire $q$-functions have infinitely many nonzero roots $\left\{ \rho_{n}\right\} _{n=1}^{\infty}$, as $n\to+\infty$ the moduli $\left|\rho_{n}\right|$ grow at least exponentially. Applications to entire…

Let $k\in\mathbb{N}_0\cup\{\infty\}$. According to Whitney's extension theorem, each real-valued Whitney $k$-Jet on a closed subset $A\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ can be extended to a $C^k$-function on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Based on Whitney's original…

Let F be a class of functions with the uniqueness property: if a function f in F vanishes on a set of positive measure, then f is the zero function. In many instances, we would like to have a quantitative version of this property, e.g. a…

As an application of Brouwer's fixed-point theorem we prove that a continuously differentiable convex function with gradient of constant norm is an affine mapping. It is a first-order characterization of affine mappings among continuously…

We show that faithfully flat smooth extensions are reduced flat, and therefore, fit into the Jacobi-Zariski exact sequence in Hochschild homology and cyclic (co)homology even when the algebras are noncommutative or infinite dimensional. We…
