We show that positive stable densities are bell-shaped, that is their n-th derivatives vanish exactly n times on (0,+oo) and have an alternating sign sequence. This confirms the graphic predictions of Holt and Crow (1973) in the positive…

Let $P$ be a finite simplicial comple with underlying space (union of simplices in $P$) $|P|$. Let $Q$ be a subcomplex of $P$. Let $a \geq 0$. Then there exists $K < \infty$, \emph{depending only on $a$ and $Q$,} with the following…

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…

We prove that if $\mu$ is a Radon measure on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$ such that the density $\Theta^s(\mu,\cdot)$, computed with respect to the Kor\'anyi metric $d_H$, exists and is positive and finite on a set of positive $\mu$…

We use weighted polynomial approximation to prove the existence of a compact set K with non-empty interior and a function f is dense in the space A(K) of all continuous functions on K that are holomorphic in the interior of K, endowed with…

Let $X=\{x_i:i\in\mathbb{Z}\}$, $\dots<x_{i-1}<x_i<x_{i+1}<\dots$, be a sampling set which is separated by a constant $\gamma>0$. Under certain conditions on $\phi$, it is proved that if there exists a positive integer $\nu$ such that…

Consider the set of scalars $\alpha$ for which the $\alpha$th Hadamard power of any $n\times n$ positive semi-definite (p.s.d.) matrix with non-negative entries is p.s.d. It is known that this set is of the form $\{0, 1, \dots, n-3\}\cup…

This paper extends some results of [M5] and [M3], in particular, removing assumptions of positive lower density. We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}^{m}, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal…

Cai and Hemachandra used iterative constant-setting to prove that Few $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P (and thus that FewP $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P). In this paper, we note that there is a tension between the nondeterministic ambiguity of the class one…

In this paper we show that certain sets are dense in $\mathbb{R}$. We give some applications. For example, we show an analytical proof that $q^{\frac{1}{n}}$, $q$ is a prime number and $e$; are irrational numbers. As another application we…

Let $\N$ denote the set of positive integers. The asymptotic density of the set $A \subseteq \N$ is $d(A) = \lim_{n\to\infty} |A\cap [1,n]|/n$, if this limit exists. Let $ \mathcal{AD}$ denote the set of all sets of positive integers that…

It is a longstanding conjecture that given a subset $E$ of a metric space, if $E$ has finite Hausdorff measure in dimension $\alpha\ge 0$ and $\mathscr{H}^\alpha\llcorner E$ has unit density almost everywhere, then $E$ is an…

By way of a complete integration of the Friedmann equations, in terms of observables, it is shown that for the cosmological constant $\Lambda > 0$ there exist non-flat FLRW models for which the total density parameter $\Omega$ remains $\sim…

Let $\mathcal{P}({\bf N})$ be the power set of ${\bf N}$. We say that a function $\mu^\ast: \mathcal{P}({\bf N}) \to \bf R$ is an upper density if, for all $X,Y\subseteq{\bf N}$ and $h, k\in{\bf N}^+$, the following hold: (F1)…

J. Rosenberg's $\mathbb{S}^1$-stability conjecture states that a closed oriented manifold $X$ admits a positive scalar curvature metric iff $X\times \mathbb{S}^1$ admits a positive scalar curvature metric $h$. As pointed out by J. Rosenberg…

Erd\H{o}s conjectured that for any set $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ with positive lower asymptotic density, there are infinite sets $B,C\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ such that $B+C\subseteq A$. We verify Erd\H{o}s' conjecture in the case that $A$ has…

This article contains a self-contained proof of the stability under convolution of the space of resurgent functions associated with a closed discrete subset of the complex plane (the set of possible singularities), under the assumption that…

We study the range of validity of the density hypothesis for the zeros of $L$-functions associated with cusp Hecke eigenforms $f$ of even integral weight and prove that $N_{f}(\sigma, T) \ll T^{2(1-\sigma)+\varepsilon}$ holds for $\sigma…

We offer a new proof of Furstenberg and Katznelson's density version of the Hales-Jewett Theorem: For any $\delta > 0$ there is some $N_0 \geq 1$ such that whenever $A \subseteq [k]^N$ with $N \geq N_0$ and $|A|\geq \delta k^N$, $A$…

We prove that if $A,B$ are compact subsets of $\mathbb{R}$ such that the upper density of $B$ is positive at every point of $B$, then there is a closed null set $N\subset A$ such that $N+B=A+B$. As a corollary we find that if $A,B\subset…
