The standard convex closed hull of a set is defined as the intersection of all images, under the action of a group of rigid motions, of a half-space containing the given set. In this paper we propose a generalisation of this classical…

For any $p\in[1,\infty]$, we prove that the set of simple functions taking at most $k$ different values is proximinal in $L^p$ for all $k\geq 1$. We introduce the class of uniformly approximable subsets of $L^p$, which is larger than the…

Let X be a complex nonsingular affine algebraic variety, K a holomorphically convex subset of X, and Y a homogeneous variety for some complex linear algebraic group. We prove that a holomorphic map f:K-->Y can be uniformly approximated on K…

For every integer $k\geq 2$ and every $R>1$ one can find a dimension $n$ and construct a symmetric convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\text{diam}\,Q_{k-1}(K)\geq R\cdot\text{diam}\,Q_k(K)$, where $Q_k(K)$ denotes the $k$-convex hull…

The purpose of this paper is to study holomorphic approximation and approximation of $\bar\partial$-closed forms in complex manifolds of complex dimension $n\geq 1$. We consider extensions of the classical Runge theorem and the Mergelyan…

We prove the existence of holomorphic functions $f$ defined on any open convex subset ${\rm \Omega}\subset {{\mathbb C}}^n$, whose partial sums of the Taylor developments approximate uniformly any complex polynomial on any convex compact…

We provide some conditions for the graph of a Hoelder-continuous function on \bar{D}, where \bar{D} is a closed disc in the complex plane, to be polynomially convex. Almost all sufficient conditions known to date --- provided the function…

For a compact subset $K$ of the complex plane $\mathbb C,$ let $C(K)$ denote the algebra of continuous functions on $K$. For an open subset $U \subset K,$ let $A(K,U) \subset C(K)$ be the algebra of functions that are analytic in $U.$ We…

Let $P$ be a polynomial that depends on two variables $X$ and $Y$ and has algebraic coefficients. If $x$ and $y$ are algebraic numbers with $P(x,y)=0$, then by work of N\'eron $h(x)/q$ is asymptotically equal to $h(y)/p$ where $p$ and $q$…

We present a geometric proof of the theorem saying that holomorphic maps from Runge domains to affine algebraic varieties admit approximation by Nash maps. Next we generalize this theorem.

In this paper, we first consider the graph of $(F_1,F_{2},\cdots,F_{n})$ on $\overline{\mathbb{D}}^{n},$ where $F_{j}(z)=\bar{z}^{m_{j}}_{j}+R_{j}(z),j=1,2,\cdots,n,$ which has non-isolated CR-singularities if $m_{j}>1$ for some…

By a [$K$-]approximate subring of a ring we mean an additively symmetric subset $X$ such that $X \cdot X \cup (X + X)$ is covered by finitely many [resp.\ $K$] additive translates of $X$. We prove a structure theorem for finite approximate…

This article describes a method to compute successive convex approximations of the convex hull of a set of points in R^n that are the solutions to a system of polynomial equations over the reals. The method relies on sums of squares of…

We generalize a version of Lavrent\'ev's theorem which says that a function that is continuous on a compact set K with connected complement and without interior points can be uniformly approximated as closely as desired by a polynomial…

Let X be an analytic set defined by polynomials whose coefficients a_1,...,a_s are holomorphic functions. We formulate conditions such that for all sequences {a_(1,n)},...,{a_(s,n)} of holomorphic functions converging locally uniformly to…

Let $K$ be a closed polydisc or ball in $\C^n$, and let $Y$ be a quasi projective algebraic manifold which is Zariski locally equivalent to $\C^p$, or a complement of an algebraic subvariety of codimension $\ge 2$ in such manifold. If $r$…

A deep approximation is an approximating function defined by composing more than one layer of simple functions. We study deep approximations of functions of one variable using layers consisting of low-degree polynomials or simple conformal…

For various Hilbert spaces of analytic functions on the unit disk, we characterize when a function $f$ has optimal polynomial approximants given by truncations of a single power series. We also introduce a generalized notion of optimal…

We prove some results on when functions on compact sets $K \subset \mathbb C$ can be approximated by polynomials avoiding values in given sets. We also prove some higher dimensional analogues. In particular we prove that a continuous…

This work has been motivated by recent papers that quantify the density of values of generic quadratic forms and other polynomials at integer points, in particular ones that use Rogers' second moment estimates. In this paper we establish…
