Let $W(\p)$ denote the set of $\p$-well approximable points in $\R^d$ and let $K$ be a compact subset of $\R^d$ which supports a measure $\mu$. In this short note, we show that if $\mu$ is an `absolutely friendly' measure and a certain…
Suppose that $S_1$ and $S_2$ are nonempty subsets of a complete metric space $(\mathcal{M},d)$ and $\phi,\psi:S_1\to S_2$ are mappings. The aim of this work is to investigate some conditions on $\phi$ and $\psi$ such that the two functions,…
We study the problem of reconstructing a positive discrete measure on a compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ from a finite set of moments (possibly known only approximately) via convex optimization. We give new uniqueness results, new…
We consider the convergence theory for dyadic approximation in the middle-third Cantor set, $K$, for approximation functions of the form $\psi_{\tau}(n) = n^{-\tau}$ ($\tau \ge 0$). In particular, we show that for values of $\tau$ beyond a…
In this paper we develop a general framework of badly approximable points in a metric space $X$ equipped with a $\sigma$-finite doubling Borel regular measure $\mu$. We establish that under mild assumptions the $\mu$-measure of the set of…
In this article, we study the properties of $\psi$-amicable numbers. We prove that their asymptotic density relative to the positive integers is zero. We also propose generalizations of $\psi$-amicable numbers.
We prove that singular vectors have measure zero with respect to any friendly measure on $\Bbb R^n$ (e.g. the volume measure on a nondegenerate submanifold). This generalizes special cases considered by Davenport-Schmidt, Baker and Bugeaud.…
Given a determinate (multivariate) probability measure $\mu$, we characterize Gaussian mixtures $\nu\_\phi$ which minimize the Wasserstein distance $W\_2(\mu,\nu\_\phi)$ to $\mu$ when the mixing probability measure $\phi$ on the parameters…
We give an integrability condition on a function $\psi$ guaranteeing that for almost all (or almost no) $x\in\mathbb{R}$, the system $|qx-p|\leq \psi(t)$, $|q|<t$ is solvable in $p\in \mathbb{Z}$, $q\in \mathbb{Z}\smallsetminus \{0\}$ for…
We construct an invariant measure $\mu$ for the Surface Quasi-Geostrophic (SQG) equation and show that almost all functions in the support of $\mu$ are initial conditions of global, unique solutions of SQG, that depend continuously on the…
We prove that for any proper metric space $X$ and a function $\psi:(0,\infty)\to(0,\infty)$ from a suitable class of approximation functions, the Hausdorff dimensions of the set $W_\psi(Q)$ of all points $\psi$-well-approximable by a…
In this short note we prove that, if (C[a,b],{A_n}) is an approximation scheme and (A_n) satisfies de La Vall\'ee-Poussin Theorem, there are instances of continuous functions on [a,b], real analytic on (a,b], which are poorly approximable…
We propose convex optimization algorithms to recover a good approximation of a point measure $\mu$ on the unit sphere $S\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ from its moments with respect to a set of real-valued functions $f_1,\dots, f_m$. Given a finite…
We give a counterexample to a conjecture of S.E. Morris by showing that there is a compact plane set X such that R(X) has no non-zero, bounded point derivations but such that R(X) is not weakly amenable. We also give an example of a…
Consider a proper cocompact CAT(0) space X. We give a complete algebraic characterisation of amenable groups of isometries of X. For amenable discrete subgroups, an even narrower description is derived, implying Q-linearity in the…
This paper is devoted to the study of the relatively compact sets in Quasi-Banach function spaces, providing an important improvement of the known results. As an application, we take the final step in establishing a relative compactness…
In the paper we represent two examples which are based on the properties of discrete measures. In the first part of the paper we prove that for each probability measure $\mu$, $\operatorname{supp}{\mu}=[-1,1]$, which logarithmic potential…
Given $\epsilon \in (0,1)$, a probability measure $\mu$ on $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^p$ and a semi-algebraic set $K\subset X\times\Omega$, we consider the feasible set $X^*_\epsilon=\{x\in X:{\rm Prob}[(x,\omega)\in K]\geq 1-\epsilon\}$…
We prove that every nonnegative continuous real-valued function on a given compact metric space is the uniform limit of some increasing sequence of nonnegative simple functions being linear combinations of indicators of open sets; here the…
We consider a quantum probe $P$ undergoing pure dephasing due to its interaction with a quantum system $S$. The dynamics of $P$ is then described by a well-defined sub-algebra of operators of $S,$ i.e. the "accessible" algebra on $S$ from…
