We prove that every bounded finely plurisubharmonic function can be locally (in the pluri-fine topology) written as the difference of two usual plurisubharmonic functions. As a consequence finely plurisubharmonic functions are continuous…

It has been proved by the authors that the (extended) Sadowsky functional can be deduced as the Gamma-limit of the Kirchhoff energy on a rectangular strip of height $\varepsilon$, as $\varepsilon$ tends to 0. In this paper we show that this…

We show that any semi-algebraic sweeping process admits piecewise absolutely continuous solutions, and any such bounded trajectory must have finite length. Analogous results hold more generally for sweeping processes definable in o-minimal…

We introduce a notion of quasiconvexity for continuous functions $f$ defined on the vector bundle of linear maps between the tangent spaces of a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ and $\mathbb{R}^m$, naturally generalizing the classical…

We consider standard and extended CMV matrices with small quasi-periodic Verblunsky coefficients and show that on their essential spectrum, all spectral measures are purely absolutely continuous. This answers a question of Barry Simon from…

We explore the notion of discrete spectrum and its various characterizations for ergodic measure-preserving actions of an amenable group on a compact metric space. We introduce a notion of 'weak-tameness', which is a measure-theoretic…

We prove the almost sure existence of absolutely continuous spectrum at low disorder for the Anderson model on the simplest example of a product of a regular tree with a finite graph. This graph contains loops of unbounded size.

This paper has an expository nature. We compare the spectral properties (such as boundedness and compactness) of three families of semi-infinite matrices and point out similarities between them. The common feature of these families is that…

In this paper we characterize tame dynamical systems and functions in terms of eventual non-sensitivity and eventual fragmentability. As a notable application we obtain a neat characterization of tame subshifts $X \subset \{0,1\}^{\mathbb…

We generalize some classical results about quasicontinuous and separately continuous functions with values in metrizable spaces to functions with values in certain generalized metric spaces, called Maslyuchenko spaces. We establish…

Bandt and Kravchenko \cite{BandtKravchenko2010} proved that if a self-similar set spans $\R^m$, then there is no tangent hyperplane at any point of the set. In particular, this indicates that a smooth planar curve is self-similar if and…

We study semifinite harmonic functions on the zigzag graph, which corresponds to Pieri's rule for the fundamental quasisymmetric functions $\{F_{\lambda}\}$. The main problem, which we solve here, is to classify the indecomposable…

In this paper, we study the topological spectrum of weighted Birkhoff averages over aperiodic and irreducible subshifts of finite type. We show that for a uniformly continuous family of potentials, the spectrum is continuous and concave…

In this paper we prove existence and multiplicity results of unbounded critical points for a general class of weakly lower semicontinuous functionals. We will apply a suitable nonsmooth critical point theory.

We prove that the variety of complete flags for any semisimple algebraic group is rigid in any smooth family of Fano manifolds.

The problem of approximating the discrete spectra of families of self-adjoint operators that are merely strongly continuous is addressed. It is well-known that the spectrum need not vary continuously (as a set) under strong perturbations.…

We introduce different classical characteristics used to regularize a subharmonic function and compare them. As an application we give a complete proof of a useful characterization of the modulus of continuity of such functions in terms of…

We prove that the upper envelope of a family of subharmonic functions defined on an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, $(N\geq2)$, that is finite every where, is locally bounded above outside a closed nowhere dense set with no bounded…

In this paper we study the $\nu$-continuity of the spectrum and some of its parts. We show that the approximate point spectrum $\sigma_{ap}$ is upper semi-$\nu$-continuous at every Fredholm operator, then we give sufficient conditions to…

We introduce complex singularity exponents of plurisubharmonic functions and prove a general semi-continuity result for them. This concept contains as a special case several similar concepts which have been considered e.g. by Arnold and…
