We introduce and study the convergence properties of a projection-type algorithm for solving the variational inequality problem for point-to-set operators. No monotoni\-city assumption is used in our analysis. The operator defining the…
We develop a monotone, two-scale discretization for a class of integrodifferential operators of order $2s$, $s \in (0,1)$. We apply it to develop numerical schemes, and derive pointwise convergence rates, for linear and obstacle problems…
The existence of extremal functions for the Sobolev trace inequalities is studied using the concentration compactness theorem. The conjectured extremal, the function of conformal factor, is considered and is proved to be an actual extremal…
If $\sigma$ is a symmetric mean and $f$ is an operator monotone function on $[0, \infty)$, then $$f(2(A^{-1}+B^{-1})^{-1})\le f(A\sigma B)\le f((A+B)/2).$$ Conversely, Ando and Hiai showed that if $f$ is a function that satisfies either one…
The Sensitivity Conjecture and the Log-rank Conjecture are among the most important and challenging problems in concrete complexity. Incidentally, the Sensitivity Conjecture is known to hold for monotone functions, and so is the Log-rank…
We consider the task of estimating the trace of a matrix function, ${\rm tr}(f({\bf A}))$, of a large symmetric positive semi-definite matrix ${\bf A}$. This problem arises in multiple applications, including kernel methods and inverse…
We introduce the notions of in-betweenness and monotonicity with respect to a metric, for operator means. These notions can be seen as generalising their natural counterpart for scalar means, and as a relaxation of the notion of geodesity.…
It is shown in this paper that two positive elements of a C*-algebra agree on all lower semicontinuous traces if and only if they are equivalent in the sense of Cuntz and Pedersen. A similar result is also obtained in the more general case…
We study monotone extension problems in the general framework of dual systems, without assuming separation. The paper develops a compact target-set formulation that includes multivalued operators as a special case and allows the initial set…
A. Tarski proposed the study of infinitary consequence operations as the central topic of mathematical logic. He considered monotonicity to be a property of all such operations. In this paper, we weaken the monotonicity requirement and…
We provide a novel transcription of monotone operator theory to the non-Euclidean finite-dimensional spaces $\ell_1$ and $\ell_{\infty}$. We first establish properties of mappings which are monotone with respect to the non-Euclidean norms…
Let $f \geq 0$ be operator monotone on $[0, \infty)$. In this paper we prove that for any unitarily-invariant norm $|||-|||$ on $M_n(\mathbb{C})$ and matrices $A, B, X \in M_n(\mathbb{C})$ with $A, B \geq 0$ and $|||X||| \leq 1$,…
In this paper some Tur\'an type inequalities for classical and generalized Mittag-Leffler functions are considered. The method is based on proving monotonicity for special ratio of sections for series of Mittag-Leffler functions. Some…
Results of Haagerup and Schultz (2009) about existence of invariant subspaces that decompose the Brown measure are extended to a large class of unbounded operators affiliated to a tracial von Neumann algebra. These subspaces are used to…
A boolean function $f(x_1,...,x_n)$ is \textit{weakly symmetric} if it is invariant under a transitive permutation group on its variables. A boolean function $f(x_1,...,x_n)$ is \textit{elusive} if we have to check all $x_1$,..., $x_n$ to…
We consider iterated function systems (finite or countable), together with linear and continuous operators on Hilbert spaces, which enable us to construct Markov-type operators. Under suitable conditions, these Markov-type operators have…
Several subadditivity results and conjectures are given for matrices (or operators), block-matrices, concave functions and norms.
New perspectives, proofs, and some extensions of known results are presented concerning the behavior of the Fitzpatrick function of a monotone type operator in the general context of a locally convex space.
Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}$. We give conditions on the Fourier transform of its density for functionals of the form $H(a)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}h(\langle a,x\rangle)\mu^n(dx)$ to be Schur monotone. As applications, we…
Monotone Boolean functions are a structurally important class of Boolean functions, but their restricted form imposes strong limitations on achievable nonlinearity. In this paper, we investigate whether evolutionary computation can evolve…
