We study the arity gap of functions of several variables defined on an arbitrary set A and valued in another set B. The arity gap of such a function is the minimum decrease in the number of essential variables when variables are identified.…

We investigate the Boolean functions with essential arity gap 2. We use Full Conjunctive Normal Forms instead of Zhegalkin's polynomials, which allow us to simplify the proofs and to obtain several combinatorial results, concerning the…

Looking at some monoids and (semi)rings (natural numbers, integers and p-adic integers), and more generally, residually finite algebras (in a strong sense), we prove the equivalence of two ways for a function on such an algebra to behave…

Three important properties in aggregation theory are investigated, namely horizontal min-additivity, horizontal max-additivity, and comonotonic additivity, which are defined by certain relaxations of the Cauchy functional equation in…

Abelian groups are classified by the existence of certain additive decompositions of group-valued functions of several variables with arity gap 2.

Martin's Conjecture is a proposed classification of the definable functions on the Turing degrees. It is usually divided into two parts, the first of which classifies functions which are not above the identity and the second of which…

We established order-preserving versions of the basic principles of functional analysis such as Hahn-Banach, Banach-Steinhaus, open mapping and Banach-Alaoglu theorems.

Compounding submodular monotone (i.e. 2-alternating) set functions on a finite set preserves this property, as shown in 2010. A natural generalization to k-alternating functions was presented in 2018, however hardly readable because of page…

The preservation of stochastic orders by distortion functions has become a topic of increasing interest in the reliability analysis of coherent systems. The reason of this interest is that the reliability function of a coherent system with…

The concept of proximate order is widely used in the theories of entire, meromorphic, subharmonic and plurisubharmonic functions. We give a general interpretation of this concept as a proximate growth function relative to a model growth…

In this paper, using the tools from the lineability theory, we distinguish certain subsets of $p$-adic differentiable functions. Specifically, we show that the following sets of functions are large enough to contain an infinite dimensional…

We study in general algebras Gratzer's notion of congruence preserving function, characterizing functions in terms of stability under inverse image of particular Boolean algebras of subsets generated from any subset of the algebra.…

Swierczkowski's Lemma - as it is usually formulated - asserts that if f is an at least quaternary operation on a finite set A and every operation obtained from f by identifying a pair of variables is a projection, then f is a…

We define a class of partial orders on a Coxeter group associated with sets of reflections. In special cases, these lie between the left weak order and the Bruhat order. We prove that these posets are graded by the length function and that…

We consider a class of sparsity-inducing regularization terms based on submodular functions. While previous work has focused on non-decreasing functions, we explore symmetric submodular functions and their \lova extensions. We show that the…

In this paper, as an analogue of the integer case, we define congruence preserving functions over the residue class rings of polynomials over finite fields. We establish a counting formula for such congruence preserving functions, determine…

We study various regularization operators on plurisubharmonic functions that preserve Lelong classes with growth given by certain compact convex sets. The purpose is to show that the weighted Siciak-Zakharyuta functions associated with…

Overlap functions were introduced as class of bivariate aggregation functions on [0, 1] to be applied in image processing. This paper has as main objective to present appropriates definitions of overlap functions considering the scope of…

This is an introduction to the M\"obius function of a poset. The chief novelty is in the exposition. We show how order-preserving maps from one poset to another can be used to relate their M\"obius functions. We derive the basic results on…

In this paper, we define a subclass of sense-preserving harmonic functions associated with a class of analytic functions satisfying a differential inequality. We then establish a close relation between both subclasses. Further, we obtain…
