We extend the extension by Ky Fan of the Krein–Milman theorem. The $\Phi $-extreme points of a $\Phi $-convex compact metrizable space are replaced by the $\Phi $-exposed points in the statement of Ky Fan theorem. Our main results are based on new variational principles which are of independent interest. Several applications will be given.

We discuss $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ boundedness for Fourier multiplier operators that satisfy the hypotheses of the Hörmander multiplier theorem in terms of an optimal condition that relates the distance $\vert \frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{2}\vert $ to the smoothness $s$ of the associated multiplier measured in some Sobolev norm. We provide new counterexamples to justify the optimality of the condition $\vert \frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{2}\vert <\frac{s}{n}$ and we discuss the endpoint case $\vert \frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{2}\vert =\frac{s}{n}$.

We prove a universal lower bound for the $L^{n/2}$-norm of the Weyl tensor in terms of the Betti numbers for compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds that are conformally immersed as hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space. As a consequence, we determine the homology of almost conformally flat hypersurfaces. Furthermore, we provide a necessary condition for a compact Riemannian manifold to admit an isometric minimal immersion as a hypersurface in the round sphere and extend a result due to Shiohama and Xu (J. Geom. Anal. 7 (1997) 377–386) for compact hypersurfaces in any space form.

Let $\mu=\mu_{n_{1}}\times\mu_{n_{2}}$, where $\mu_{n_{1}}$ and $\mu_{n_{2}}$ are upper doubling measures on $\mathbb{R}^{n_{1}}$ and $\mathbb{R}^{n_{2}}$, respectively. Let the pseudo-accretive function $b=b_{1}\otimes b_{2}$ satisfy a bi-parameter Carleson condition. In this paper, we established the $L^{2}(\mu)$ boundedness of non-homogeneous Littlewood–Paley $g_{\lambda}^{*}$-function with non-convolution type kernels on product spaces. This was mainly done by means of dyadic analysis and non-homogenous methods. The result is new even in the setting of Lebesgue measures.

We study bounds for the backward shift operator $f\mapsto(f(z)-f(0))/z$ and the related operator $f\mapsto f-f(0)$ on Hardy and Bergman spaces of analytic and harmonic functions. If $u$ is a real valued harmonic function, we also find a sharp bound on $M_{1}(r,u-u(0))$ in terms of $\|u\|_{h^{1}}$, where $M_{1}$ is the integral mean with $p=1$.

In this paper, quantitative bounds in high-frequency central limit theorems are derived for Poisson based $U$-statistics of arbitrary degree built by means of wavelet coefficients over compact Riemannian manifolds. The wavelets considered here are the so-called needlets, characterized by strong concentration properties and by an exact reconstruction formula. Furthermore, we consider Poisson point processes over the manifold such that the density function associated to its control measure lives in a Besov space. The main findings of this paper include new rates of convergence that depend strongly on the degree of regularity of the control measure of the underlying Poisson point process, providing a refined understanding of the connection between regularity and speed of convergence in this framework.

We show that any Carnot group contains a closed nowhere dense set which has measure zero but is not $\sigma $-porous with respect to the Carnot–Carathéodory (CC) distance. In the first Heisenberg group, we observe that there exist sets which are porous with respect to the CC distance but not the Euclidean distance and vice-versa. In Carnot groups, we then construct a Lipschitz function which is Pansu differentiable at no point of a given $\sigma $-porous set and show preimages of open sets under the horizontal gradient are far from being porous.

Associated to any compact quantum group $G\subset U_{N}^{+}$ is a canonical family of group dual subgroups $\widehat{\Gamma }_{Q}\subset G$, parametrized by unitaries $Q\in U_{N}$, playing the role of “maximal tori” for $G$. We present here a series of conjectures, relating the various algebraic and analytic properties of $G$ to those of the family $\{\widehat{\Gamma }_{Q}|Q\in U_{N}\}$.

We examine values of certain Tornheim’s type of double series with odd weight. As a result, an affirmative answer to a conjecture about the parity theorem for the zeta function of the root system of the exceptional Lie algebra $G_{2}$, proposed by Komori, Matsumoto and Tsumura, is given.

In previous papers, we examined several properties of an error term in a certain divisor problem related to the derivatives of the Riemann zeta-function. In this paper, we obtain representations of error terms related to the derivatives of some Dirichlet series, which can be regarded as generalized versions of a Dirichlet divisor problem and a Gauss circle problem. We also give the upper bounds of the error terms in terms of exponent pairs.

By using the technique introduced in 1995 by Shepp and Vanderbei, we derive an exact formula for the expected number of complex zeros of a complex random polynomial due to Kac. The explicit evaluation of the average intensity function is obtained in closed form in the case of standard normal coefficients. In addition, we provide the limiting expressions for the intensity function and the expected number of zeros in open circular disks in the complex plane.

In this paper, we obtain several sufficient and necessary conditions for a finite sum of Toeplitz products with form $\sum_{m=1}^{M}T_{f_{m}}T_{g_{m}}$ on the Hardy space over the polydisk to be zero. The methods used in this note are Berezin transform and the essential fiber dimension.

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a finite valuation ring of order $q^{r}$. In this paper, we generalize and improve several well-known results, which were studied over finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ and finite cyclic rings $\mathbb{Z}/p^{r}\mathbb{Z}$, in the setting of finite valuation rings.
