We classify all functions which, when applied term by term, leave invariant the sequences of moments of positive measures on the real line. Rather unexpectedly, these functions are built of absolutely monotonic components, or reflections of…
We prove that if a linear equation, whose coefficients are continuous rational functions on a nonsingular real algebraic surface, has a continuous solution, then it also has a continuous rational solution. This is known to fail in higher…
A set of reals A is called perfectly meager if A \cap P is meager in P, for every perfect set P. Marczewski asked if the product of perfectly meager sets is perfectly meager. In the paper it is shown that it is consistent that the answer to…
We establish the exact overlaps conjecture for iterated functions systems on the real line with algebraic contractions and arbitrary translations.
We show that a rational function $f$ of degree $>1$ on the projective line over an algebraically closed field that is complete with respect to a non-trivial and non-archimedean absolute value has no potentially good reductions if and only…
We study models M of set theory that are "condensable", in the sense that there is an "ordinal" v of M such that the rank initial segment of M determined by v is both isomorphic to M, and also an elementary submodel of M for infinitary…
It is consistent that there is a set mapping from the four-tuples of omega_n into the finite subsets with no free subsets of size t_n for some natural number t_n. For any n< omega it is consistent that there is a set mapping from the pairs…
Results on the upper and lower semicontinuity of functionals defined on spaces of convex and more general functions are established. In particular, the following result is obtained. Let $\phi(v; \cdot)$ be the density of the absolutely…
We show if we use countable support iteration of forcing notions not adding reals that satisfy additional conditions, then the limit forcing does not add reals. As a result we prove that we can amalgamate two earlier methods and prove the…
We study rational functions admitting a continuous extension to the real affine space. First of all, we focus on the regularity of such functions exhibiting some nice properties of their partial derivatives. Afterwards, since these…
Define (*) There exists $(\phi_n:\omega_1\to \omega_1:n<\omega)$ such that for every uncountable $I$ which is a subset of $\omega_1$ there exists $n$ such that $\phi_n$ maps $I$ onto $\omega_1$. This is roughly what Sierpinski in his book…
The functional equation f(p(z))=g(q(z)) is studied, where p,q are polynomials and f,g are trancendental meromorphic functions in C. We find all the pairs p,q for which there exist nonconstant f,g satisfying our equation and there exist no…
We construct a separate continuous function $f\colon\mathbb{Q}\times\mathbb{Q}\to[0,1] $ and a dense subset $D\subseteq \mathbb{Q}\times\mathbb{Q}$ such that $f[D]$ is not dense in $f[\mathbb{Q}\times\mathbb{Q}]$, in other words, $f$ is…
We prove that, if f:R^n\to R satisfies Fr\'echet's functional equation and f(x_1,...,x_n) is not an ordinary algebraic polynomial in the variables x_1,...,x_n, then f is unbounded on all non-empty open set U of R^n. Furthermore, the closure…
Let $f$ be a zero-free analytic function on $\Re(s) \geq 1$. We prove that there exists an entire zero-free function $g$ and a Helson zeta-function $\zeta_\chi(s)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty \chi(n) n^{-s}$, where $\chi(n)$ is a completely…
In the paper we will prove that each t-Wright convex function, which is bounded above on a D-measurable non-Haar meager set is continuous. Our paper refers to papers \cite{Olbrys}, \cite{Jablonska} and a problem posed by K.Baron and R.Ger.
In this article, we study exponents which preserve complete monotonicity of functions on lattices. We prove that for any completely monotone function $f$ on a finite lattice, $f^\alpha$ is completely monotone for all $\alpha\geq c$, where…
We show that any stochastically monotone Feller semigroup on R can be extended by a consistent family of order-preserving Feller semigroups on the successive powers of R. We exhibit a specific such family, which is uniquely characterized by…
Martin's Conjecture states that every definable function on the Turing degrees is either constant or increasing, and that every increasing function is an iterate of the Turing jump. This classification has already been corroborated for the…
Every function over the natural numbers has an infinite subdomain on which the function is non-decreasing. Motivated by a question of Dzhafarov and Schweber, we study the reverse mathematics of variants of this statement. It turns out that…
