Here we establish several results on the nonlocal curvature of planar curves. First we show how to express the nonlocal curvature of a curve relative to a point in terms of the nonlocal curvatures of simpler components of that curve…

We study approximation by arbitrary linear combinations of $n$ translates of a single function of periodic functions. We construct some linear methods of this approximation for univariate functions in the class induced by the convolution…

We prove that the maximum independent set approximation problem with polylogarithmic approximation factor is P-SLOCAL-complete. Thus an efficient algorithm for the maximum independent set approximation in the LOCAL model implies efficient…

We obtain some nonlocal characterizations for a class of variable exponent Sobolev spaces arising in nonlinear elasticity, in the theory of electrorheological fluids as well as in image processing for the regions where the variable exponent…

A local algorithm is a distributed algorithm where each node must operate solely based on the information that was available at system startup within a constant-size neighbourhood of the node. We study the applicability of local algorithms…

In this paper we study two different ways of coupling a local operator with a nonlocal one in such a way that the resulting equation is related to an energy functional. In the first strategy the coupling is given via source terms in the…

Regressing a scalar response on a random function is nowadays a common situation. In the nonparametric setting, this paper paves the way for making the local linear regression based on a projection approach a prominent method for solving…

We develop a wavelet like representation of functions in $L^p(\mathbb{R})$ based on their Fourier--Hermite coefficients; i.e., we describe an expansion of such functions where the local behavior of the terms characterize completely the…

We construct an example of a real-valued continuous non-constant function $f$ defined on a connected complete metric space $X$ such that every point of $X$ is a point of local minimum or local maximum for $f$. The space $X$ is connected but…

We consider a class of elliptic and parabolic problems, featuring a specific nonlocal operator of fractional-laplacian type, where integration is taken on variable domains. Both elliptic and parabolic problems are proved to be uniquely…

We consider nonparametric regression with functional covariates, that is, they are elements of an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. A locally polynomial estimator is constructed, where an orthonormal basis and various tuning parameters…

We propose an alternative to $k$-nearest neighbors for functional data whereby the approximating neighboring curves are piecewise functions built from a functional sample. Using a locally defined distance function that satisfies…

Most commonly used \emph{adaptive} algorithms for univariate real-valued function approximation and global minimization lack theoretical guarantees. Our new locally adaptive algorithms are guaranteed to provide answers that satisfy a…

We introduce a new class of quasilinear nonlocal operators and study equations involving these operators. The operators are degenerate elliptic and may have arbitrary growth in the gradient. Included are new nonlocal versions of p-Laplace,…

This article shows that on a closed interval $[a,b]$ a continuous function may be approximated to an arbitrary degree of accuracy using scattered translates of the general multiquadric $(x^2+c^2)^{k-1/2}$.

This paper addresses a multi-scale finite element method for second order linear elliptic equations with arbitrarily rough coefficient. We propose a local oversampling method to construct basis functions that have optimal local…

Several sets of quaternionic functions are described and studied with respect to hyperholomorphy, addition and (non commutative) multiplication, on open sets of $\mathbb H$. The aim is to get a local function theory.

We prove a nonlocal, nonlinear commutator estimate concerning the transfer of derivatives onto testfunctions. For the fractional $p$-Laplace operator it implies that solutions to certain degenerate nonlocal equations are higher…

We prove that every nonnegative continuous real-valued function on a given compact metric space is the uniform limit of some increasing sequence of nonnegative simple functions being linear combinations of indicators of open sets; here the…

In this paper we extend some results presented in \cite{julio} to the case of the $p$-Laplacian operator. More precisely, we consider a model that couples a local $p$-Laplacian operator with a nonlocal $p$-Laplacian operator through source…
