Injectivity of the continuous wavelet transform acting on a square integrable signal is proved under weak conditions on the Fourier transform of the wavelet, namely that it is nonzero somewhere in almost every direction. For a bounded…

Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space, and let an iterated function system (IFS) be given on $X$, i.e., a finite set of continuous maps $\sigma_{i}$: $ X\to X$, $i=0,1,..., N-1$. The maps $\sigma_{i}$ transform the measures $\mu $ on $X$…

We introduce a screw function corresponding to the Riemann zeta-function and study its properties from various aspects. Typical results are several equivalent conditions for the Riemann hypothesis in terms of the screw function. One of them…

In this paper we present a general approach to multivariate periodic wavelets generated by scaling functions of de la Vall\'ee Poussin type. These scaling functions and their corresponding wavelets are determined by their Fourier…

Any symmetric affinity function $w: V\times V \to \mathbb{R}_+$ defined on a discrete set $V$ induces Euclidean space structure on $V$. In particular, an undirected graph specified by an affinity (or adjacency) matrix can be considered as a…

We show that $\lim_{t \to 0} e^{it\Delta}f(x) = f(x)$ almost everywhere for all $f \in H^s (\mathbb{R}^2)$ provided that $s>1/3$. This result is sharp up to the endpoint. The proof uses polynomial partitioning and decoupling.

The standard estimator for the two-point function of a homogeneous and isotropic random field is a special case of a larger class of least squares estimators that interpolate the function values. Using a different interpolation scheme,…

This paper deals with approximation of smooth convex functions $f$ on an interval by convex algebraic polynomials which interpolate $f$ at the endpoints of this interval. We call such estimates "interpolatory". One important corollary of…

Consider a symmetric $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process with $\alpha\in (1,2)$. We study shifted small ball probabilities for these processes in the uniform topology, when the shift function is an arbitrary continuous function which starts at…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a sequence of functions on a set $\Omega$ under which there is a measure on $\Omega$ which renders the given sequence of functions a martingale. Further such a measure is unique if we impose a…

Special functions are often defined as a Fourier or Laplace transform of a positive measure, and the positivity of the measure manifests as positive definiteness of certain matrices. The purpose of this expository note is to give a sample…

An estimation method is proposed for a wide variety of discrete time stochastic processes that have an intractable likelihood function but are otherwise conveniently specified by an integral transform such as the characteristic function,…
