We study, for the first time, the maximum modulus set of a quasiregular map. It is easy to see that these sets are necessarily closed, and contain at least one point of each modulus. Blumenthal showed that for entire maps these sets are…

It is known that the entropy function over a set of jointly distributed random variables is a submodular set function. However, not any submodular function is of this form. In this paper, we consider a family of submodular set functions,…
