Quasisymmetric structures on surfaces

2009

We show that a locally Ahlfors 2-regular and locally linearly locally contractible metric surtace is locally quasisymmetrically equivalent to tne disk. We also discuss an application of this result to the problem of characterizing surfaces embedded in some Euclidean spaces that are locally bi-Lipschitz equivalent to a ball in the plane.

Blocks with Equal Height Zero Degrees

2009

We study blocks all of whose height zero ordinary characters have the same degree. We suspect that these might be the Broue-Puig nilpotent blocks.

On the number of solutions of a Duffing equation

1991

The exact number of solutions of a Duffing equation with small forcing term and homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions is given. Several bifurcation diagrams are shown.

Perturbations of the derivative along periodic orbits

2006

International audience; We show that a periodic orbit of large period of a diffeomorphism or flow, either admits a dominated splitting of a prescribed strength, or can be turned into a sink or a source by a C1-small perturbation along the orbit. As a consequence we show that the linear Poincaré flow of a C1-vector field admits a dominated splitting over any robustly transitive set.

Approximation and quasicontinuity of Besov and Triebel–Lizorkin functions

2016

We show that, for $0<s<1$, $0<p<\infty$, $0<q<\infty$, Haj\l asz-Besov and Haj\l asz-Triebel-Lizorkin functions can be approximated in the norm by discrete median convolutions. This allows us to show that, for these functions, the limit of medians, \[ \lim_{r\to 0}m_u^\gamma(B(x,r))=u^*(x), \] exists quasieverywhere and defines a quasicontinuous representative of $u$. The above limit exists quasieverywhere also for Haj\l asz functions $u\in M^{s,p}$, $0<s\le 1$, $0<p<\infty$, but approximation of $u$ in $M^{s,p}$ by discrete (median) convolutions is not in general possible.

Sampling methods for low-frequency electromagnetic imaging

2007

For the detection of hidden objects by low-frequency electromagnetic imaging the linear sampling method works remarkably well despite the fact that the rigorous mathematical justification is still incomplete. In this work, we give an explanation for this good performance by showing that in the low-frequency limit the measurement operator fulfils the assumptions for the fully justified variant of the linear sampling method, the so-called factorization method. We also show how the method has to be modified in the physically relevant case of electromagnetic imaging with divergence-free currents. We present numerical results to illustrate our findings, and to show that similar performance can b…

Norm or numerical radius attaining polynomials on C(K)

2004

Abstract Let C(K, C ) be the Banach space of all complex-valued continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space K. We study when the following statement holds: every norm attaining n-homogeneous complex polynomial on C(K, C ) attains its norm at extreme points. We prove that this property is true whenever K is a compact Hausdorff space of dimension less than or equal to one. In the case of a compact metric space a characterization is obtained. As a consequence we show that, for a scattered compact Hausdorff space K, every continuous n-homogeneous complex polynomial on C(K, C ) can be approximated by norm attaining ones at extreme points and also that the set of all extreme points of the u…

Dimension estimates for the boundary of planar Sobolev extension domains

2020

We prove an asymptotically sharp dimension upper-bound for the boundary of bounded simply-connected planar Sobolev $W^{1,p}$-extension domains via the weak mean porosity of the boundary. The sharpness of our estimate is shown by examples.
