We provide another approach to Friedland's result that the topological entropy $h$ of a symmetric nearest-neighbor subshift is computable. Instead of the previous algebraic technique, our approach is mostly combinatorial and involves only…

We study the problem of representing a discrete tensor that comes from finite uniform samplings of a multi-dimensional and multiband analog signal. Particularly, we consider two typical cases in which the shape of the subbands is cubic or…

In this paper we extend the results of "A strong minimax property of nondegenerate minimal submanifolds" by White, where it is proved that any smooth, compact submanifold, which is a strictly stable critical point for an elliptic parametric…

In 2010, Olson \& Robinson [Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 362(1), 145-168] introduced the notion of an almost homogeneous metric space and showed that if $X$ is a subset of a Hilbert space such that $X-X$ is almost…

In this paper we study the regularity of embeddings of finite--dimensional subsets of Banach spaces into Euclidean spaces. In 1999, Hunt and Kaloshin [Nonlinearity 12 1263-1275] introduced the thickness exponent and proved an embedding…

This paper is devoted to the approximation of differentiable semialgebraic functions by Nash functions. Approximation by Nash functions is known for semialgebraic functions defined on an affine Nash manifold M, and here we extend it to…

We prove that given two compact oriented $3$-manifolds $N$ and $M,$ with $M$ satisfying only a mild hypothesis, there is a hyperbolic $3$-manifold $N'$ arbitrarily ``closely related'' to $N,$ and such that $N'$ does not embed in $M.$ For…

For two probability measures $\rho$ and $\pi$ on $[-1,1]^{\mathbb{N}}$ we investigate the approximation of the triangular Knothe-Rosenblatt transport $T:[-1,1]^{\mathbb{N}}\to [-1,1]^{\mathbb{N}}$ that pushes forward $\rho$ to $\pi$. Under…

We prove a structure theorem for compact aspherical Lorentz manifolds with abundant local symmetry. If M is a compact, aspherical, real-analytic, complete Lorentz manifold such that the isometry group of the universal cover has semisimple…

We prove that in every separable Banach space $X$ with a Schauder basis and a $C^k$-smooth norm it is possible to approximate, uniformly on bounded sets, every equivalent norm with a $C^k$-smooth one in a way that the approximation is…

We prove that the existence of best coapproximation to any element of the normed linear space out of any one dimensional subspace and its coincidence with the best approximation to that element out of that subspace characterizes a real…

A complete contraction on a C*-algebra A, which preserves all closed two sided ideals J, can be approximated pointwise by elementary complete contractions if and only if the induced map on the tensor product of B with A/J is contractive for…

We consider the problem of approximating a two-dimensional shape contour (or curve segment) using discrete assembly systems, which allow to build geometric structures based on limited sets of node and edge types subject to edge length and…

We present and study approximate notions of dimensional and margin complexity, which correspond to the minimal dimension or norm of an embedding required to approximate, rather then exactly represent, a given hypothesis class. We show that…

We show the smooth version of the nearby Lagrangian conjecture for the 2-dimensional pair of pants and the Hamiltonian version for the cylinder. In other words, for any closed exact Lagrangian submanifold of $T^{*}M$, there is a smooth or…

A subset S of a Riemannian manifold N is called extrinsically homogeneous if S is an orbit of a subgroup of the isometry group of N. Thorbergsson proved the remarkable result that every complete, connected, full, irreducible isoparametric…

We study density thresholds that force a measurable set $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$ to contain all sufficiently large similar copies of every $n$-point configuration. We prove a lower bound of the form $1-O((\log n)/n)$, which matches the…

If $X$ is a closed $2n$-dimensional aspherical manifold, i.e., the universal cover of $X$ is contractible, then the Chern-Hopf-Thurston conjecture predicts that $(-1)^n\chi(X)\geq 0$. We prove this conjecture when $X$ is a complex…

We show that every finite dimensional Hausdorff (not necessarily paracompact, not necessarily second countable) $C^r$-manifold can be embedded into a weakly complete vector space, i.e. a locally convex topological vector space of the form…

We investigate asymptotically sharp upper and lower bounds for the approximation numbers of the compact Sobolev embeddings $\overset{\circ}{W}{^m}(\Omega)\hookrightarrow L_2(\Omega)$ and $ W^m(\Omega)\hookrightarrow L_2(\Omega)$, defined on…
