The concept of convex compactness, weaker than the classical notion of compactness, is introduced and discussed. It is shown that a large class of convex subsets of topological vector spaces shares this property and that is can be used in…
Diversities are an extension of the concept of a metric space which assign a non-negative value to every finite set of points, rather than just pairs. A general theory of diversities has been developed which exhibits many deep analogies to…
Consider a formally self-adjoint first order linear differential operator acting on pairs (2-columns) of complex-valued scalar fields over a 4-manifold without boundary. We examine the geometric content of such an operator and show that it…
We set up a left ring of fractions over a certain ring of boundary problems for linear ordinary differential equations. The fraction ring acts naturally on a new module of generalized functions. The latter includes an isomorphic copy of the…
Partition of unities appear in many places in analysis. Typically they are generated by compactly supported functions with a certain regularity. In this paper we consider partition of unities obtained as integer-translates of entire…
In this paper we define "a continued fraction expansion of the exponential integral $E_{1}(x)$ at infinity", which is analogous to the regular continued fraction expansion of real numbers, and prove that this expansion gives the same…
In 2008 or earlier, Michel Mend\`es France asked for an instance of a real number $x$ such that both $x$ and $1/x$ are simply normal to a given integer base $b$. We give a positive answer to this question by constructing a number $x$ such…
It is shown that generalized trigonometric functions and generalized hyperbolic functions can be transformed from each other. As an application of this transformation, a number of properties for one immediately lead to the corresponding…
We review the algebraic field theory based completely on a nonlinear generalization of the CR complex analiticity conditions to the noncommutative algebra of biquaternions. Any biquaternionic field possesses natural twistor structure and,…
We consider weighted double Hurwitz numbers, with the weight given by arbitrary rational function times an exponent of the completed cycles. Both special singularities are arbitrary, with the lengths of cycles controlled by formal…
We single out some problems of Schubert calculus of subspaces of codimension 2 that have the property that all their solutions are real provided that the data are real. Our arguments explore the connection between subspaces of codimension 2…
The study of combinatorial properties of mathematical objects is a very important research field and continued fractions have been deeply studied in this sense. However, multidimensional continued fractions, which are a generalization…
We develop techniques that lay out a basis for generalizations of the famous Thurston's Topological Characterization of Rational Functions for an infinite set of marked points and branched coverings of infinite degree. Analogously to the…
A function from Baire space to the natural numbers is called formally continuous if it is induced by a morphism between the corresponding formal spaces. We compare formal continuity to two other notions of continuity on Baire space working…
We initiate a systematic study of intrinsic dimensional versions of classical functional inequalities which capture refined properties of the underlying objects. We focus on model spaces: Euclidean space, Hamming cube, and manifolds of…
Two classical results characterizing regularity of a convergence space in terms of continuous extensions of maps on one hand, and in terms of continuity of limits for the continuous convergence on the other, are extended to…
Quadratic irrationals posses a periodic continued fraction expansion. Much less is known about cubic irrationals. We do not even know if the partial quotients are bounded, even though extensive computations suggest they might follow…
Given a continuous function from Euclidean space to the real line, we analyze (under some natural assumption on the function), the set of values it takes on translates of lattices. Our results are of the flavor: For almost any translate,…
For a class of symplectic manifolds, we introduce a functional which assigns a real number to any pair of continuous functions on the manifold. This functional has a number of interesting properties. On the one hand, it is Lipschitz with…
This note is a complement to Pusz--Woronowicz's works on functional calculus for two positive forms from the viewpoint of operator theory. Based on an elementary, self-contained and purely Hilbert space operator explanation of their…
