For a subset $E = \{\xi_1, ..., \xi_N\}$ of the unit circle $\mathbb{T}$, the notion of Ritt$_E$ operators on a Banach space and their functional calculus on generalized Stolz domains was developed and studied in arXiv:2203.05373. In this…

We study conical square function estimates for Banach-valued functions, and introduce a vector-valued analogue of the Coifman-Meyer-Stein tent spaces. Following recent work of Auscher-McIntosh-Russ, the tent spaces in turn are used to…

In the regression model with errors in variables, we observe $n$ i.i.d. copies of $(Y,Z)$ satisfying $Y=f_{\theta^0}(X)+\xi$ and $Z=X+\epsilon$ involving independent and unobserved random variables $X,\xi,\epsilon$ plus a regression…

We characterize the class of separable Banach spaces $X$ such that for every continuous function $f:X\to\mathbb{R}$ and for every continuous function $\epsilon:X\to\mathbb(0,+\infty)$ there exists a $C^1$ smooth function $g:X\to\mathbb{R}$…

Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Banach space and $f$ an analytic function, defined on the spectrum of $T$. We discuss the relations between the rate of growth of the resolvent of $T$ and of $f(T)$.

Roughly speaking, functional analysis is the study of vector spaces of arbitrary dimension over the field of real or complex numbers, and the continuous linear mappings between such spaces. Naturally, the notion of continuity requires a…

For hypothesis testing of functional parameters, given a functional statistic $T_n$ and a functional depth $D$ with respect to the distribution $P_n$ of $T_n$, we propose the depth value $DT_n \equiv D(T_n;P_n)$ as a test statistic, which…
