We prove the consistency of $\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{N})<\mathrm{cov}(\mathcal{N})<\mathfrak{p}=\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{s}<\mathrm{add}(\mathcal{M})=\mathrm{cof}(\mathcal{M})<\mathfrak{a}=\mathrm{non}(\mathcal{N})=\mathfrak{c}$ with ZFC where…

In this paper we consider the long-term behavior of points in ${\mathbb R}$ under iterations of continuous functions. We show that, given any Cantor set $\Lambda^*$ embedded in ${\mathbb R}$, there exists a continuous function $F^*:{\mathbb…

An additive functional of a rooted tree is a functional that can be calculated recursively as the sum of the values of the functional over the branches, plus a certain toll function. Janson recently proved a central limit theorem for…

We construct bisymmetric, strictly increasing binary operations on real intervals which are not continuous. This answers a natural question in the theory of bisymmetric and mean-type operations by showing that continuity may fail for…

For topological spaces $X$ and $Y$, a (not necessarily continuous) function $f:X \rightarrow Y$ naturally induces a functor from the category of closed subsets of $X$ (with morphisms given by inclusions) to the category of closed subsets of…

With the aim of treating the local behaviour of additive functions, we develop analogues of the Matom\"{a}ki-Radziwill theorem that allow us to approximate the average of a general additive function over a typical short interval in terms of…

An almost disjoint family $\mathcal A$ of subsets of $\mathbb N$ is said to be $\mathbb R$-embeddable if there is a function $f:\mathbb N\rightarrow \mathbb R$ such that the sets $f[A]$ are ranges of real sequences converging to distinct…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a real-valued quasiconvex function f on a Baire topological vector space X (in particular, Banach or Frechet space) to be continuous at the points of a residual subset of X. These conditions…

This paper uses the machinery of almost periodic functions to prove that even without uniform convergence the connection between a pair of almost periodic functions and the constants of the associated Fourier series exists for both the…

Let $\Delta_m$ be the standard $m$-dimensional simplex of non-negative $m+1$ tuples that sum to unity and let $S$ be a nonempty subset of $\Delta_m$. A real valued function $h$ defined on a convex subset of a real vector space is $S$-almost…

We show that countable increasing unions preserve a large family of well-studied covering properties, which are not necessarily sigma-additive. Using this, together with infinite-combinatorial methods and simple forcing theoretic methods,…

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…

Existence of an increasing quasi-concave value function consistent with given preference information is an important issue in various fields including Economics, Multiple Criteria Decision Making, and Applied Mathematics. In this paper, we…

We prove a result about extension of a minimal AF-equivalence relation R on the Cantor set X, the extension being `small' in the sense that we modify R on a thin closed subset Y of X. We show that the resulting extended equivalence relation…

We prove an invariance principle (functional central limit theorem) for a vector-valued additive functional of a Markov chain for almost every starting point with respect to an ergodic equilibrium distribution. The hypothesis is a moment…

We construct "large" Cantor sets whose complements resemble the unit disk arbitrarily well from the point of view of the squeezing function, and we construct "large" Cantor sets whose complements do not resemble the unit disk from the point…

The paper contains two results pointing to the lack of symmetry between measure and category. Assume CH. There exists a strongly meager subset of the Cantor set that can be mapped onto the Cantor set by a uniformly continuous function. (It…

In the present paper, we are going to study metric properties of unconventional limit set of a semigroup $G$ generated by contractive functions $\{f_{i}\}_{i=1}^N$ on the unit ball $\mathbb Z_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. Namely, we prove that…

Denote by $\Delta_M$ the $M$-dimensional simplex. A map $f\colon \Delta_M\to\mathbb R^d$ is an almost $r$-embedding if $f\sigma_1\cap\ldots\cap f\sigma_r=\emptyset$ whenever $\sigma_1,\ldots,\sigma_r$ are pairwise disjoint faces. A…

We prove that for a continuum $K\subset \mathbb R^n$ the sum $K^{+n}$ of $n$ copies of $K$ has non-empty interior in $\mathbb R^n$ if and only if $K$ is not flat in the sense that the affine hull of $K$ coincides with $\mathbb R^n$.…
