The problem of finding the minimizer of a sum of convex functions is central to the field of optimization. Thus, it is of interest to understand how that minimizer is related to the properties of the individual functions in the sum. In this…

Foundation models for segmentation such as the Segment Anything Model (SAM) family exhibit strong zero-shot performance, but remain vulnerable in shifted or limited-knowledge domains. This work investigates whether uncertainty…

We discuss the problem where the extremal function in embedding theorem of some (generally speaking, non-integer) order is the constant function. We obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions of this.

Problems in econometrics, insurance, reliability engineering, and statistics quite often rely on the assumption that certain functions are non-decreasing. To satisfy this requirement, researchers frequently model the underlying phenomena…

We study homogenisation problems for divergence form equations with rapidly sign-changing coefficients. With a focus on problems with piecewise constant, scalar coefficients in a ($d$-dimensional) crosswalk type shape, we will provide a…

For the class of de Branges-Rovnyak spaces $\mathcal{H}(b)$ of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ defined by extreme points $b$ of the unit ball of $H^\infty$, we study the problem of approximation of a general function in $\mathcal{H}(b)$ by a…

We investigate bang-bang control problems and the possibility to apply Newton's method to solve such kind of problems numerically. To this end, we show that the signum function is Fr\'echet differentiable between appropriate function…

We provide a sharp monotonicity theorem about the distribution of subharmonic functions on manifolds, which can be regarded as a new, measure theoretic form of the uncertainty principle. As an illustration of the scope of this result, we…

This paper considers the problem of testing whether there exists a solution satisfying certain non-negativity constraints to a linear system of equations. Importantly and in contrast to some prior work, we allow all parameters in the system…

This paper contains two finite-sample results concerning the sign test. First, we show that the sign-test is unbiased with independent, non-identically distributed data for both one-sided and two-sided hypotheses. The proof for the…

This paper is devoted to investigating the sequence of some linear functionals in the space $BV$ of finite variation functions. We prove that under certain conditions this sequence is bounded. We also prove that this result is sharp. In…

We study the indivisible intervals and the monotonicity of the growth of the exponential type in the chains of de Branges subspaces in terms of the spectral measure. We prove that for spectral measures supported on $\mathbb Z$, there exist…

The aim of this paper is to show that, in the limit circle case, the defect index of a symmetric relation induced by canonical systems, is constant on C. This provides an alternative proof of the De Branges theorem that the canonical…

The sign problem is a notorious problem, which occurs in Monte Carlo simulations of a system with the partition function whose integrand is not real positive. The basic idea of the factorization method applied on such a system is to control…
