For a set $A$ of non-negative integers, let $R_A(n)$ denote the number of solutions to the equation $n=a+a'$ with $a$, $a'\in A$. Denote by $\chi_A(n)$ the characteristic function of $A$. Let $b_n>0$ be a sequence satisfying $\limsup_{n\to…
The Donsker-Varadhan rate function for occupation-time fluctuations has been seen numerically to exhibit monotone return to stationary nonequilibrium [Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 010601 (2011)]. That rate function is related to dynamical activity…
In this paper we study the representation theory of three monoids of partial functions on an $n$-set. The monoid of all order-preserving functions (i.e., functions satisfying $f(x)\leq f(y)$ if $x\leq y$) the monoid of all order-decreasing…
A basic idea in optimal transport is that optimizers can be characterized through a geometric property of their support sets called cyclical monotonicity. In recent years, similar "monotonicity principles" have found applications in other…
The comonotonic maxitivity property of functionals frequently appears in the characterization of fuzzy integrals based on the maximum operation. In some special cases, comonotonic maxitivity implies monotonicity of functionals. The question…
Many trace inequalities can be expressed either as concavity/convexity theorems or as monotonicity theorems. A classic example is the joint convexity of the quantum relative entropy which is equivalent to the Data Processing Inequality. The…
In this paper, we propose a general mathematical framework to represent many multi-agent signalling systems in recent works. Our goal is to apply previous results in monotonicity to this class of systems and study their asymptotic behavior.…
For an operator monotone function $f(t)$ on the positive real line, we show the operator monotonicity of the type of the functions $(t-a)(t-b)/(f(t)-f(a))(f^\sharp(t)-f^\sharp(b))$.
In the paper, the authors concisely survey and review some functions involving the gamma function and its various ratios, simply state their logarithmically complete monotonicity and related results, and find necessary and sufficient…
We explore and relate two notions of monotonicity, stochastic and realizable, for a system of probability measures on a common finite partially ordered set (poset) S when the measures are indexed by another poset A. We give counterexamples…
We consider some questions concerning the monotonicity properties of entropy and mean entropy of states on translationally invariant systems (classical lattice, quantum lattice and quantum continuous). By taking the property of strong…
We develop an approach to study character sums, weighted by a multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{F}_q[t]\to S^1$, of the form \begin{equation} \sum_{G\in \mathcal{M}_N}f(G)\chi(G)\xi(G), \end{equation} where $\chi$ is a Dirichlet character…
Motivated by a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s on the additive irreducibility of small perturbations of the set of squares, recently Hajdu and S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy studied a multiplicative analogue of the conjecture for shifted $k$-th powers. They…
We consider the discrete Schr\"odinger operators with potentials whose values are read along the orbits of a shift of finite type. We study a certain subset of the collection of energies at which the Lyapunov exponent is zero and prove…
A change in a stochastic system has three representations: Probabilistic, statistical, and informational: (i) is based on random variable $u(\omega)\to\tilde{u}(\omega)$; this induces (ii) the probability distributions $F_u(x)\to…
We extend the study of the Pick class, the set of complex analytic functions taking the upper half plane into itself, to the noncommutative setting. R. Nevanlinna showed that elements of the Pick class have certain integral representations…
Two emergent properties in aggregation theory are investigated, namely horizontal maxitivity and comonotonic maxitivity (as well as their dual counterparts) which are commonly defined by means of certain functional equations. We completely…
Motivated by existing results, we present some completely monotonic functions involving the polygamma functions.
In optimal transport, quadratic regularization is a sparse alternative to entropic regularization: the solution measure tends to have small support. Computational experience suggests that the support decreases monotonically to the…
We study three natural properties that measure the robustness of asymptotic bases of order 2: having divergent representation function, being decomposable as a union of two bases, and containing a minimal basis. Erd\H{o}s and Nathanson…
