In this paper, we prove that in forcing extensions by a poset with finally property K over a model of GCH+$\square$, every compact sequentially compact space is weakly pseudoradial. We also prove the following assuming $\mathfrak{s}\leq…

A polynomial skew product of C^2 is a map of the form f(z,w) = (p(z), q(z,w)), where p and q are polynomials, such that f is regular of degree d >= 2. For polynomial maps of C, hyperbolicity is equivalent to the condition that the closure…

In the setting of CAT(k) spaces, common fixed point iterations built from prox mappings (e.g. prox-prox, Krasnoselsky-Mann relaxations, nonlinear projected-gradients) converge locally linearly under the assumption of linear metric…

For a compact subset $K\subset \mathbb C$ and a positive finite Borel measure $\mu$ supported on $K,$ let $\text{Rat}(K)$ denote the space of rational functions with poles off $K,$ let $R^\infty (K,\mu)$ be the weak-star closure of…

We study algebraic dynamical systems (and, more generally, $\sigma$-varieties) $\Phi:{\mathbb A}^n_{\mathbb C} \to {\mathbb A}^n_{\mathbb C}$ given by coordinatewise univariate polynomials by refining a theorem of Ritt. More precisely, we…

We consider a sequence $(p_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ of polynomials with uniformly bounded zeros and $\deg p_1\geq 1$, $\deg p_n\geq 2$ for $n\geq 2$, satisfying certain asymptotic conditions. We prove that the function sequence $\left(\frac{1}{\deg…

We introduce the notion of a ``projective hull'' for subsets of complex projective varieties, parallel to the idea of the polynomial hull in affine varieties. With this concept, a generalization of J. Wermer's classical theorem on the hull…

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 show that, given a family of discs centered at a nice curve, the analytic capacities of arbitrary subsets of these discs add up. However we need that the discs in question would be slightly separated, and it is not clear whether the…

We study some approximation problems on a strict subset of the circle by analytic functions of the Hardy space H2 of the unit disk (in C), whose modulus satisfy a pointwise constraint on the complentary part of the circle. Existence and…

We study some variations of the product topology on families of clopen subsets of $2^{\mathbb{N}}\times\mathbb{N}$ in order to construct countable nodec regular spaces (i.e. in which every nowhere dense set is closed) with analytic topology…

We consider the classical $k$-Center problem in undirected graphs. The problem is known to have a polynomial-time 2-approximation. There are even $(2+\varepsilon)$-approximations running in near-linear time. The conventional wisdom is that…

Let p be a monic polynomial in one complex variable and K a measurable subset of the complex plane. In terms of the area of K, we give an upper bound on the area of the preimage of K under p and a lower bound on the area of the image of K…

Let $K/k$ be an extension of number fields, and let $P(t)$ be a quadratic polynomial over $k$. Let $X$ be the affine variety defined by $P(t) = N_{K/k}(\mathbf{z})$. We study the Hasse principle and weak approximation for $X$ in three…

Beiglboeck, Bergelson and Fish proved that if subsets A,B of a countable discrete amenable group G have positive Banach densities a and b respectively, then the product set AB is piecewise syndetic, i.e. there exists k such that the union…

Each extreme edge of the Newton diagram of a plurisubharmonic polynomial on $\mathbb{C}^2$ gives rise to a plurisubharmonic polynomial. It is tempting to believe that the union of the extreme edges or the convex hull of said union will do…

We construct a compact set whose continuous analytic capacity does not vary continuously under a certain holomorphic motion, thereby answering a question of Paul Gauthier. Our example is inspired by holomorphic dynamics and relies on the…

For a nonempty compact subset $\sigma$ in the plane, the space $AC(\sigma)$ is the closure of the space of complex polynomials in two real variables under a particular variation norm. In the classical setting, $AC[0,1]$ contains several…

For a probability measure with compact and non-polar support in the complex plane we relate dynamical properties of the associated sequence of orthogonal polynomials $\{P_n\}$ to properties of the support. More precisely we relate the Julia…

Let \(G\) be a non-discrete, locally compact group with Haar measure \(m\). We prove that there exists a compact set \(K \subset G\) with \(m(K)=0\) such that \(KK^{-1}\) contains a neighborhood of the identity. Moreover, such a set may be…
