We introduce a weak asymptotic version of nonlinear contraction, termed \emph{asymptotic pointwise contraction}. For a mapping on a metric space, this notion requires the existence of a sequence of functions that dominate the distances…

We establish optimal results on limits at infinity for functions in fractional Sobolev spaces.

We construct an example showing that the upper bound $[w]_{A_1}\log({\rm{e}}+[w]_{A_1})$ for the $L^1(w)\to L^{1,\infty}(w)$ norm of the Hilbert transform cannot be improved in general.

A recent result characterizes the fully order reversing operators acting on the class of lower semicontinuous proper convex functions in a real Banach space as certain linear deformations of the Legendre-Fenchel transform. Motivated by the…

We give examples of $L^{1}$-functions that are essentially unbounded on every nonempty open subset of their domains of definition. We obtain such functions as limits of weighted sums of functions with the unboundedly increasing number of…

We prove that the derivative of a non-linear entire function is unbounded on the preimage of an unbounded set.

For a function space $X(\OO)$ satisfying weak assumptions we prove that the generic function in $X(\OO)$ is totally unbounded, hence non-extendable. We provide several examples of such spaces; they are mainly localized versions of classical…

In higher dimensional gauge theory, we need energies with higher power terms of field strength in order to realize point-wise monopoles. We consider new models with higher power terms of field strength and extraordinary kinetic term of…

We establish bounds for the covariance of a large class of functions of infinite variance stable random variables, including unbounded functions such as the power function and the logarithm. These bounds involve measures of dependence…

We consider Birkhoff sums of functions with a singularity of type 1/x over rotations and prove the following limit theorem. Let $S_N= S_N(\alpha,x)$ be the N^th non-renormalized Birkhoff sum, where $x in [0,1)$ is the initial point,…

We establish a fixed point theorem for mappings of square matrices of all sizes which respect the matrix sizes and direct sums of matrices. The conclusions are stronger if such a mapping also respects matrix similarities, i.e., is a…

We prove a sharp upper bound for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of a class of nonlinear elliptic operators which includes the p-Laplace and the pseudo-p-Laplace operators. Moreover, we prove a stability result by means of a suitable…

A elementary proof of Fermat"s Last Theorem[1] is presented for the case of even exponents n=2q, where q is any integer, including 2. For even exponents, the proof of the theorem reduces to showing that solutions of the Pythagorean equation…

We prove the existence of a limit of the finite volume probability measures generated by tree growth rules in Ford's alpha model of phylogenetic trees. The limiting measure is shown to be concentrated on the set of trees consisting of…

Bounds are obtained for the efficiency or mean to peak ratio $E(\Omega)$ for the first Dirichlet eigenfunction (positive) for open, connected sets $\Omega$ with finite measure in Euclidean space $\R^m$. It is shown that (i) localisation…

Let X be the graph in the plane of a pfaffian function f (in the sense of Khovanskii). Suppose X is not algebraic. This note gives an upper bound for the number of rational points on X of height up to X. The bound is uniform in the order…

We prove that if Q is a nw-nep forcing then it cannot add a dominating real. We also prove that Amoeba forcing cannot be P(X)/I if I is an aleph_1-complete ideal.

In this paper our aim is to show some new inequalities of Redheffer type for Bessel and modified Bessel functions of the first kind. The key tools in our proofs are some classical results on the monotonicity of quotients of differentiable…

We give a one-sentence proof that a continuous real-valued function f on a closed, bounded interval attains a maximum value, by the following device. We define x in [a, b] to be a lookout point if f(t) does not exceed f(x) whenever t lies…
