Admissible orders play a key role in ranking subintervals of the unit interval. In 2013, Bustince et al. proposed constructing such relations by means of admissible pairs of aggregation functions. The only significant example in the…

We prove that every nonnegative continuous real-valued function on a given compact metric space is the uniform limit of some increasing sequence of nonnegative simple functions being linear combinations of indicators of open sets; here the…

A strong submeasure on a compact metric space X is a sub-linear and bounded operator on the space of continuous functions on X. A strong submeasure is positive if it is non-decreasing. By Hahn-Banach theorem, a positive strong submeasure is…

In this manuscript, we propose a general proximal quasi-Newton method tailored for nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problems, where we do not require the sequence of the variable metric (or Hessian approximation) to be uniformly bounded…

Successive divisions of compact metric spaces appear in many different areas of mathematics such as the construction of self-similar sets, Markov partitions associated with hyperbolic dynamical systems, dyadic cubes associated with a…

Starting from pseudometrics and preorders on sets of integers, we extend the focus to sets of finite sequences of integers, in particular sequences of consecutive integers. We outline existing concepts for deriving centred pseudometrics and…

Let $\mu$ be a positive measure on the real line with locally finite support $\Lambda$ and integer masses such that its Fourier transform in the sense of distributions is a purely point measure. An explicit form is found for an entire…

This paper tackles the unconstrained minimization of a class of nonsmooth and nonconvex functions that can be written as finite max-functions. A gradient and function-based sampling method is proposed which, under special circumstances,…

We give a general procedure for gluing together possibly noncompact manifolds of constant scalar curvature which satisfy an extra nondegeneracy hypothesis. Our aim is to provide a simple paradigm for making `analytic' connected sums. In…

The theory of quasi-arithmetic means is a powerful tool in the study of covariance functions across space-time. In the present study we use quasi-arithmetic functionals to make inferences about the permissibility of averages of functions…

We prove that every vertically nearly separately continuous function defined on a product of a strong PP-space and a topological space and with values in a strongly $\sigma$-metrizable space with a special stratification, is a pointwise…

The Bohr compactification is a well known construction for (topological) groups and semigroups. Recently, this notion has been investigated for arbitrary structures in \cite{har_kun:bohr_discrete} where the Bohr compactification is defined,…

We study continuous (strongly) minimal cut generating functions for the model where all variables are integer. We consider both the original Gomory-Johnson setting as well as a recent extension by Cornu\'ejols and Y{\i}ld{\i}z. We show that…

S-metric and b-metric spaces are metrizable, but it is still quite impossible to get an explicit form of the concerned metric function. To overcome this, the notion of $\phi$-metric is developed by making a suitable modification in triangle…

Overlap functions were introduced as class of bivariate aggregation functions on [0, 1] to be applied in image processing. This paper has as main objective to present appropriates definitions of overlap functions considering the scope of…

A compactness of the Revuz map is established in the sense that the locally uniform convergence of a sequence of positive continuous additive functionals is derived in terms of their smooth measures. To this end, we first introduce a metric…

In a complete metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we study strict subsets, i.e. sets whose variational capacity with respect to a larger reference set is finite, in the case $p=1$.…

Gravitationally collapsed objects are known to be biased tracers of an underlying density contrast. Using symmetry arguments, generalised biasing schemes have recently been developed to relate the halo density contrast $\delta_h$ with the…

As countless examples show, it can be fruitful to study a sequence of complicated objects all at once via the formalism of generating functions. We apply this point of view to the homology and combinatorics of orbit configuration spaces:…

We find an extension of the quasi-metric (to be called $g$-quasi metric) such that the induced generalized topology may fail to form a topology. We show that $g$-quasi metrizability is a $g$-topologically invariant property of generalized…
