We consider a homogeneous, constant rank differential operator $\mathcal{A}$ and prove a characterisation theorem for $\mathcal{A}$-quasiaffine functions in the spirit of Ball, Currie and Olver (1981); i.e. functions such that \[ f(v) =…
The paper establishes conditions under which there are exact linear representations of nonlinear partial differential equations (Cauchy problems). By introducing a certain linear operator $A$, it is shown that under these conditions there…
This short note describes the connection between strong minimality of the differential equation satisfied by an complex analytic function and the real and imaginary parts of the function being Pfaffian. This connection combined with a…
This work concerns the study of the subdifferential of the integral functional $$ E_f(x)=\int_{T} f(t,x)d\mu(t), $$ where $f$ is a (not necessarily convex) normal integrand, $({T},\mathcal{A},\mu)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure space, while…
Associativity of a two-place function $T: [0,1]^2\rightarrow [0,1]$ defined by $T(x,y)=f^{(-1)}(F(f(x),f(y)))$ where $F:[0,\infty]^2\rightarrow[0,\infty]$ is an associative function, $f: [0,1]\rightarrow [0,\infty]$ is a monotone function…
A necessary and sufficient condition for fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces to be continuously embedded into $L^\infty(\mathbb R^n)$ is exhibited. Under the same assumption, any function from the relevant fractional-order spaces is shown to…
Let $d\ge 1, \ell\in\Z^d$, $m\in \mathbb Z^+$ and $\theta_i$, $i=1,\dots,m $ are fixed, distinct and nonzero real numbers. We show that the $m$-(sub)linear version below of the Ratnakumar and Shrivastava \cite{RS1} Littlewood-Paley square…
For non-decreasing real functions $f$ and $g$, we consider the functional $ T(f,g ; I,J)=\int_{I} f(x)\di g(x) + \int_J g(x)\di f(x)$, where $I$ and $J$ are intervals with $J\subseteq I$. In particular case with $I=[a,t]$, $J=[a,s]$, $s\leq…
We prove various results connecting structural or algebraic properties of graphs and groups to conditions on their spaces of harmonic functions. In particular: we show that a group with a finitely supported symmetric measure has a…
The main result states that every convex set-valued function defined on a real interval with compact values in a locally convex space, admits an affine selection. In the case if the target space is a real line and the values are closed real…
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 $f:I\to{\mathbb R}$,…
We show that any nontrivial self-similar subset of the real line that is invariant under a lattice iterated function system (IFS) satisfying the open set condition (OSC) is not Minkowski measurable. So far, this was only known for special…
It is known that the nonnegativity of Li coefficients is a necessary and sufficient condition for the Riemann hypothesis. We show that it is a necessary and sufficient condition for the Riemann hypothesis that all Li coefficients are norms…
Bandt and Kravchenko \cite{BandtKravchenko2010} proved that if a self-similar set spans $\R^m$, then there is no tangent hyperplane at any point of the set. In particular, this indicates that a smooth planar curve is self-similar if and…
This paper gives the pointwise H\"older (or multifractal) spectrum of continuous functions on the interval $[0,1]$ whose graph is the attractor of an iterated function system consisting of $r\geq 2$ affine maps on $\mathbb{R}^2$. These…
We consider convex and nonconvex constrained optimization with a partially separable objective function: agents minimize the sum of local objective functions, each of which is known only by the associated agent and depends on the variables…
In this paper, we provide the sufficient and necessary conditions for the symmetry of the following stable L\'evy-type operator $\mathcal{L}$ on $\mathbb{R}$: $$\mathcal{L}=a(x){\Delta^{\alpha/2}}+b(x)\frac{\d}{\d x},$$ where $a,b$ are the…
We prove that a locally integrable function $f:(a,b) \to \mathbb R$ must be affine if its mean oscillation, considered as a function of intervals, can be extended to a locally finite Borel measure. In particular, we show that any function…
In a previous paper \cite{ref1} we produced a sequence of analytic functions $\{\alpha \uparrow^n z\}_{n=0}^\infty$ when $1 \le \alpha \le e^{1/e}$ and $z$ was in the right half of the complex plane, the \emph{bounded analytic…
