Extending the notion of bounded variation, a function $u \in L_c^1(\mathbb R^n)$ is of bounded fractional variation with respect to some exponent $\alpha$ if there is a finite constant $C \geq 0$ such that the estimate \[ \biggl|\int u(x)…

We generalize the classical calculus rules satisfied by functions of bounded variation to the framework of RCD spaces. In the infinite dimensional setting we are able to define an analogue of the distributional differential and on finite…

Let $[a,b]\subset\mathbb{R}$ be a non empty and non singleton closed interval and $P=\{a=x_0<\cdots<x_n=b\}$ is a partition of it. Then $f:I\to\mathbb{R}$ is said to be a function of $r$-bounded variation, if the expression…

We construct a generalization of the multiplicative product of distributions presented by L. H\"ormander in [L. H\"ormander, {\it The analysis of linear partial differential operators I} (Springer-Verlag, 1983)]. The new product is defined…

Let $X$ be a perfect, compact subset of the complex plane, and let $D^{(1)}(X)$ denote the (complex) algebra of continuously complex-differentiable functions on $X$. Then $D^{(1)}(X)$ is a normed algebra of functions but, in some cases,…

We prove a generalization of the Arone-Ching chain rule for Goodwillie derivatives by showing that for any pair of reduced finitary functors $F \colon \mathcal{D} \to \mathcal{E}$ and $G \colon \mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D}$ between…

Structural properties are given for $D(K)$, the Banach algebra of (complex) differences of bounded semi-continuous functons on a metric space $K$. For example, it is proved that if all finite derived sets of $K$ are non-empty, then a…

A generalization of exterior calculus is considered by allowing the partial derivatives in the exterior derivative to assume fractional orders. That is, a fractional exterior derivative is defined. This is found to generate new vector…

The cutoff phenomenon was recently shown to systematically follow from non-negative curvature and the product condition, for all Markov diffusions. The proof crucially relied on a classical \emph{chain rule} satisfied by the carr\'e du…

We prove some invariance principles for processes which generalize FARIMA processes, when the innovations are in the domain of attraction of a nonGaussian stable distribution. The limiting processes are extensions of the fractional L\'evy…

One shortcoming of the chain rule is that it does not iterate: it gives the derivative of f(g(x)), but not (directly) the second or higher-order derivatives. We present iterated differentials and a version of the multivariable chain rule…

We develop physically admissible lattice models in the harmonic approximation which define by Hamilton's variational principle fractional Laplacian matrices of the forms of power law matrix functions on the n -dimensional periodic and…

We introduce the \emph{$\varphi\mathbb{A}$-differentiability} for functions $f:U\subset \mathbb R^{k}\to\mathbb A$ where $\mathbb A$ is the linear space $\mathbb R^{n}$ endowed with an algebra product which is unital, associative,…

We prove that for a large class of multiplicative functions, referred to as generalized divisor functions, it is possible to find a lower bound for the corresponding variance in arithmetic progressions. As a main corollary, we deduce such a…

We construct the rings of generalized differential operators on the ${\bf h}$-deformed vector space of ${\bf gl}$-type. In contrast to the $q$-deformed vector space, where the ring of differential operators is unique up to an isomorphism,…

We define the tangential derivative, a notion of directional derivative which is invariant under diffeomorphisms. In particular this derivative is invariant under changes of chart and is thus well-defined for functions defined on a…

The classical Chain Rule formula $(f\circ g)'(x;u)=f'(g(x);g'(x;u))$ gives the (partial, or directional) derivative of the composition of mappings $f$ and $g$. We show how to get rid of the unnecessarily strong assumption of…

We prove that the local version of the chain rule cannot hold for the fractional variation defined in arXiv:1809.08575. In the case $n = 1$, we prove a stronger result, exhibiting a function $f \in BV^{\alpha}(\mathbb{R})$ such that $|f|…

In this work we provide a characterization of distinct type of (linear and non-linear) maps between Banach spaces in terms of the differentiability of certain class of Lipschitz functions. Our results are stated in an abstract bornological…

The paper considers the distribution of a general linear combination of central and non-central chi-square random variables by exploring the branch cut regions that appear in the standard Laplace inversion process. Due to the original…
