This paper provides a complete characterization of quasicontractive groups and analytic $C_0$-semigroups on Hardy and Dirichlet space on the unit disc with a prescribed generator of the form $Af=Gf'$. In the analytic case we also give a…

Let $E\subset\Bbb{C}$ be a compact set symmetric with respect to the real axis. A classical theorem of Fekete-Szeg\H{o} asserts that such a compact set is of logarithmic capacity at least one if and only if it admits approximation by…

We show that there exists a family of Knapsack polytopes such that, for each polytope P from this family and each {\epsilon} > 0, any {\epsilon}-approximated formulation of P in the original space R^n requires a number of inequalities that…

We study best approximation to a given function, in the least square sense on a subset of the unit circle, by polynomials of given degree which are pointwise bounded on the complementary subset. We show that the solution to this problem, as…

For $K\subset \mathbb C$ a compact subset and $\mu$ a positive finite Bore1 measure supported on $K,$ let $R^\infty (K,\mu)$ be the weak-star closure in $L^\infty (\mu)$ of rational functions with poles off $K.$ We show that if $R^\infty…

In this paper we prove that if $\phi:\C\to\C$ is a $K$-quasiconformal map, with $K>1$, and $E\subset \C$ is a compact set contained in a ball $B$, then $$\frac{\dot C_{\frac{2K}{2K+1},\frac{2K+1}{K+1}}(E)}{\diam(B)^{\frac2{K+1}}} \geq…

We present an expanded expository account of the $K$-moment problem for polynomial algebras over \(\R^d\), with special emphasis on compact basic closed semialgebraic sets. The central question is to characterize those linear functionals on…

For every $\epsilon > 0$ and $k \in \mathbb{N}$, Haight constructed a set $A \subset \mathbb{Z}_N$ ($\mathbb{Z}_N$ stands for the integers modulo $N$) for a suitable $N$, such that $A-A = \mathbb{Z}_N$ and $|kA| < \epsilon N$. Recently,…

For any $p\in[1,\infty)$, we prove that the set of simple functions taking at most $k$ different values is proximinal in B\"ochner spaces $L^p(X)$ whenever $X$ is a dual Banach space with $w^*$-sequentially compact unit ball. With…

We consider the situation where one is given a set S of points in the plane and a collection D of unit disks embedded in the plane. We show that finding a minimum cardinality subset of D such that any path between any two points in S is…

We develop a general toolbox to study $W^{1,p}$ solutions of differential inclusions $\nabla u \in K$ for unbounded sets $K$. A key notion is the concept that a subset $K$ of the space $\mathbb{R}^{d \times m}$ of $d \times m$ matrices can…

Given an action of a complex reductive Lie group G on a normal variety X, we show that every analytically Zariski-open subset of X admitting an analytic Hilbert quotient with projective quotient space is given as the set of semistable…

Let $K$ be a compact subset of a totally-real manifold $M$, where $M$ is either a $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth graph in $\mathbb{C}^{2n}$ over $\mathbb{C}^n$, or $M=u^{-1}\{0\}$ for a $\mathcal{C}^2$-smooth submersion $u$ from $\mathbb{C}^n$ to…

Kim defined a very general combinatorial abstraction of the diameter of polytopes called subset partition graphs to study how certain combinatorial properties of such graphs may be achieved in lower bound constructions. Using Lov\'asz'…

For "Riesz-like" kernels $K(x,y)=f(|x-y|)$ on $A\times A$, where $A$ is a compact $d$-regular set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^p$, we prove a minimum principle for potentials $U_K^\mu=\int K(x,y)d\mu(x)$, where $\mu$ is a Borel measure supported on…

Let $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{2 \times 2}$ be a compact set, let $K^{rc}$ be its rank-one convex hull, and let $L(K)$ be its lamination convex hull. It is shown that the mapping $K \to \overline{L(K)}$ is not upper semicontinuous on the…

Let K/Q be a field extension of finite degree and let P(t) be a polynomial over Q that splits into linear factors over Q. We show that any smooth model of the affine variety defined by the equation N_{K/Q} (k) = P(t) satisfies the Hasse…

We study the dynamics near infinity of polynomial mappings $f$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$. We assume that $f$ has indeterminacy points and is non constant on the line at infinity $L_\infty$. If $L_\infty$ is $f$-attracting, we decompose the Green…
