The ordinary differential equation $\dot{x}(t)=f(x(t)), \; t \geq 0 $, for $f$ measurable, is not sufficiently regular to guarantee existence of solutions. To remedy this we may relax the problem by replacing the function $f$ with its…
Given a pair of real functions $(k,f)$, we study the conditions they must satisfy for $k+\lambda f$ to be the curvature in the arc-length of a closed planar curve for all real $\lambda$. Several equivalent conditions are pointed out,…
This paper investigates functions from $\mathbb{R}^d$ to $\mathbb{R} \cup \{\pm \infty\}$ that satisfy axioms of linearity wherever allowed by extended-value arithmetic. They have a nontrivial structure defined inductively on $d$, and…
Inspired by Karr's algorithm, we consider the summations involving a sequence satisfying a recurrence of order two. The structure of such summations provides an algebraic framework for solving the difference equations of form…
The purpose of these notes is to introduce some of the problems the enumeration of lattice walks is dedicated to and familiarize with some of the arguments they can be addressed with. We discuss the enumeration of lattice walks, their…
A function $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is called {\em compact-preserving} if the image $f(K)$ of each compact subset $K\subset X$ is compact. We prove that a function $f:X\to Y$ defined on a strong Frechet space $X$ is…
Examples exist of extended-real-valued closed functions on ${\bf R}^n$ whose subdifferentials (in the standard, limiting sense) have large graphs. By contrast, if such a function is semi-algebraic, then its subdifferential graph must have…
In the process of proving a sharpened form of G\r{a}rding's inequality, Fefferman & Phong demonstrated that every non-negative function $f\in C^{3,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ can be written as a finite sum of squares of functions in…
The aim of this paper is to prove that a large class of quaternionic slice regular functions result to be (ramified) covering maps. By means of the topological implications of this fact and by providing further topological structures, we…
Let $\mathcal{H}_0$ denote the set of all sense-preserving harmonic mappings $f=h+\overline{g}$ in the unit disk $\ID$, normalized with $h(0)=g(0)=g'(0)=0$ and $h'(0)=1$. In this paper, we investigate some properties of certain subclasses…
We show that the equality $m_1(f(x))=m_2(g(x))$ for $x$ in a neighborhood of a point $a$ remains valid for all $x$ provided that $f$ and $g$ are open holomorphic maps, $f(a)=g(a)=0$ and $m_1,$ $m_2$ are Minkowski functionals of bounded…
In this paper we study the following type of functions $f: \mathcal{Q}_{\mathbb{R}_{3}} \to \mathbb{R}_{3}$, where $ \mathcal{Q}_{\mathbb{R}_3}$ is the quadratic cone of the algebra $\mathbb{R}_{3}$. From the fact that it is possible to…
We build the $q=-1$ defomation of plane on a product of two copies of algebras of functions on the plane. This algebra constains a subalgebra of functions on the plane. We present general scheme (which could be used as well to construct…
Given a Farey-type map F with full branches in the extended Hecke group Gamma_m, its dual F_# results from constructing the natural extension of F, letting time go backwards, and projecting. Although numerical simulations may suggest…
In this paper, we determine the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equations \[g(x\sigma (y)) = g(x)g(y)+f(x)f(y),\quad x,y\in S,\]\[f(x\sigma (y)) = f(x)g(y)+f(y)g(x),\quad x,y\in S,\]\[f(x\sigma (y)) =…
We introduce a class of functionals on the space of rapidly decreasing sequences $s$, called $\mathcal{F}_s$-functionals, defined as decomposable sums of quadratic and convex terms with quadratic growth. We prove that such functionals…
Let X be an affine real algebraic set . We investigate on the theory of algebraically constructible functions on X and the description of the semi-algebraic subsets of X when we replace the polynomial functions on X by some rational…
We present a family of sense-preserving harmonic mappings in the unit disk related to the classical generalized (analytic) Koebe functions. We prove that these are precisely the mappings that maximize simultaneously the real part of every…
We determine all entire functions $f$ such that for nonzero complex values $a\neq b$ the implications $f=a \Rightarrow f' =a$ and $f' =b \Rightarrow f=b$ hold. This solves an open problem in uniqueness theory. In this context we give a…
Let K be the function field of a connected regular scheme S of dimension 1, and let f : X -> Y be a finite cover of projective smooth and geometrically connected curves over K with g(X) greater or equal to 2. Suppose that f can be extended…
