The main aim of this paper is to study the functional inequality \begin{equation*} \int_{[0,1]}f\bigl((1-t)x+ty\bigr)d\mu(t)\geq 0, \qquad x,y\in I \mbox{ with } x<y, \end{equation*} for a continuous unknown function $f:I\to{\mathbb R}$,…

For every affine variety over a global function field, we show that the set of its points with coordinates in an arbitrary rank-one multiplicative subgroup of this function field is topologically dense in the set of its points with…

Continuing the ideas from our previous paper, we construct Parseval frames of weighted exponential functions for self-affine measures.

Let $X$ be an irreducible affine algebraic variety that is spherical with respect to an action of a connected reductive group $G$. In this paper we provide sufficient conditions, formulated in terms of weight combinatorics, for the…

Invariance with respect to linear or affine transformations of the domain is arguably the most common symmetry exhibited by natural algebraic properties. In this work, we show that any low complexity affine-invariant property of…

The complexity of continuous piecewise affine (CPA) functions can be measured by the number of pieces $p$ or the number of distinct affine functions $n$. For CPA functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$, this paper shows an upper bound of $p=O(n^{d+1})$…

Let $G$ be a group. A function $G\rightarrow G$ of the form $x\mapsto x^{\alpha}g$ for a fixed automorphism $\alpha$ of $G$ and a fixed $g\in G$ is called an affine map of $G$. In this paper, we study finite groups $G$ with an affine map of…

We say that a real-valued function $f$ defined on a positive Borel measure space $(X,\mu)$ is nowhere $q$-integrable if, for each nonvoid open subset $U$ of $X$, the restriction $f|_U$ is not in $L^q(U)$. When $(X,\mu)$ satisfies some…

We show that, if $f$ is an outer function and $a\in[0,1)$, then the set of functions $\{\log |(f\circ\psi)^*|: \psi:\mathcal{D}\to\mathcal{D} \text{ holomorphic}, |\psi(0)|\le a\}$ is uniformly integrable on the unit circle. As an…

We consider entire solutions $u$ to the minimal surface equation in $R^N$, with $ N\ge8,$ and we prove the following sharp result : if $N-7$ partial derivatives $ \frac{\partial u }{\partial {x_j}}$ are bounded on one side (not necessarily…

Homogeneous rotation symmetric Boolean functions have been extensively studied in recent years because of their applications in cryptography. Little is known about the basic question of when two such functions are affine equivalent. The…

Motivated by a problem on comonotone approximation of $C^n$ functions by entire functions, for increasing functions $f\colon[0,1]\to[0,1]$, we characterize the possible values of $(a,b,c)$, where $a=I(f)(1)$, $b=I^2(f)(1)$, $c=I^3(f)(1)$…

The problem whether a given pair of functions can be used as the kernels of a generalized fractional derivative and the associated generalized fractional integral is reduced to the problem of existence of a solution to the Sonine equation.…

For a family of continuous functions $f_1,f_2,\dots \colon I \to \mathbb{R}$ ($I$ is a fixed interval) with $f_1\le f_2\le \dots$ define a set $$ I_f:=\big\{x \in I \colon \lim_{n \to \infty} f_n(x)=+\infty\big\}.$$ We study the properties…

Let $\mu$ be a measure on $[-1,1]$. Then for every continuous function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ and $\alpha>0$ one can define its averaging $f_{\alpha}:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ by the formula: \[ f_{\alpha}(x) = \int_{-1}^{1}…

Smoothness of a function $f:{\mathbb R}^n\to {\mathbb R}$ can be measured in terms of the rate of convergence of $f\ast\rho_\varepsilon$ to $f$, where $\rho$ is an appropriate mollifier. In the framework of fractional Sobolev spaces, we…

We prove sharp $L^2$ Fourier restriction inequalities for compact, smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with the affine surface measure or a power thereof. The results are valid for all smooth surfaces and the bounds are uniform for…

Let $K$ be a compact metric space. A real-valued function on $K$ is said to be of Baire class one (Baire-1) if it is the pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous functions. In this paper, we study two well known ordinal indices of…

We prove that if $X$ is a paracompact space, $Y$ is a metric space and $f:X\to Y$ is a functionally fragmented map, then (i) $f$ is $\sigma$-discrete and functionally $F_\sigma$-measurable; (ii) $f$ is a Baire-one function, if $Y$ is weak…
