We investigate extensions of S. Solecki's theorem on closing off finite partial isometries of metric spaces \cite{solecki1} and obtain the following exact equivalence: any action of a discrete group $\Gamma$ by isometries of a metric space…

We derive that for a separable proximinal subspace $Y$ of $X$, $Y$ is strongly proximinal (strongly ball proximinal) if and only if for $1\leq p< \infty$, $L_p(I,Y)$ is strongly proximinal (strongly ball proximinal) in $L_p(I,X)$. Case for…

In this paper we derive estimates for linear potentials that hold away from thin subsets. And, inspired by the celebrated work of Huber, we verify that, for a subset that is thin at a point, there is always a geodesic that reaches to the…

Let $K\subset\mathbb R^d$ be a compact subset equipped with a $\delta$-Ahlfors regular measure $\mu$. For any $\tau>1/d$ and any ``inhomogeneous'' vector $\boldsymbol{\theta}\in\mathbb R^d$, let $W_d(\psi_\tau,\boldsymbol{\theta})$ denote…

We comment on recent results in the field of information based complexity, which state (in a number of different settings), that approximation of infinitely differentiable functions is intractable and suffers from the curse of…

We study the characterization of several distance problems for linear differential-algebraic systems with dissipative Hamiltonian structure. Since all models are only approximations of reality and data are always inaccurate, it is an…

We continue studying the problem of analytic approximation of matrix functions. We introduce the notion of a partial canonical factorization of a badly approximable matrix function $\Phi$ and the notion of a canonical factorization of a…

In this paper we present some bounds of Hausdorff measures of objects definable in o-minimal structures: sets, fibers of maps, inverse images of curves of maps, etc. Moreover, we also give some explicit bounds for semi-algebraic or…

We observe that the notions of a topological space being extremally disconnected, and of a continuous map of compact Hausdorff spaces being proper, and being surjective proper, can each be defined in terms of the Quillen lifting property…

In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure that supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that a set $E$ is of finite perimeter if and only if $\mathcal H(\partial^1 I_E)<\infty$, that is, if and only if the…

The paper is devoted to the investigation of finite dimensional commutative nilpotent (associative) algebras N over an arbitrary base field of characteristic zero. Due to the lack of a general structure theory for algebras of this type (as…

Given an arbitrary closed set A of $\mathbf{R}^{n}$, we establish the relation between the eigenvalues of the approximate differential of the spherical image map of A and the principal curvatures of A introduced by Hug-Last-Weil, thus…

Consider the integer best approximations of a linear form in $n\ge 2$ real variables. While it is well-known that any tail of this sequence always spans a lattice is sharp for any $n\ge 2$. In this paper, we determine the exact Hausdorff…

We prove new bounds on the dimensions of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar sets. Among other results, we show that if $A\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is a Borel set of Hausdorff dimension $s>1$, then its distance set has Hausdorff…

Let $b\geq3$ be an integer and $C(b,D)$ be the set of real numbers in $[0,1]$ whose $b$-ary expansion consists of digits restricted to a given set $D\subseteq\{0,\ldots,b-1\}$. Given an integer $t\geq2$ and a real, positive function $\psi$,…

Given a Banach space X and a subspace Y, the pair (X,Y) is said to have the approximation property (AP) provided there is a net of finite rank bounded linear operators on X all of which leave the subspace Y invariant such that the net…

A natural quantity that measures how well a map $f:\mathbb{R}^{d}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{D}$ is approximated by an affine transformation is…

Given a matrix $A$, a matrix nearness problem seeks an $X$ that most closely approximates $A$ in the sense of minimizing $\lVert A - X\rVert$ under a variety of constraints on $X$. A generalized matrix nearness problem seeks the same but…

A triple of finite von Neumann algebras $B\subseteq N\subseteq M$ is said to have the relative weak asymptotic homomorphism property if there exists a net of unitary operators $\{u_{\lambda}\}_{\lambda\in \Lambda}$ in $B$ such that…

We present and study approximate notions of dimensional and margin complexity, which correspond to the minimal dimension or norm of an embedding required to approximate, rather then exactly represent, a given hypothesis class. We show that…
