We construct three models containing exactly one supercompact cardinal in which level by level inequivalence between strong compactness and supercompactness holds. In the first two models, below the supercompact cardinal κ, there is a non-supercompact strongly compact cardinal. In the last model, any suitably defined ground model Easton function is realized.

Consider a root system of type BC1 on the real line R with general positive multiplicities. The Cherednik-Opdam transform defines a unitary operator from an L-space on R to a L-space of C-valued functions on R with the Harish-Chandra measure |c(λ)|dλ. By introducing a weight function of the form cosh(t) tanh t on R we find an orthogonal basis for the L-space on R consisting of even and odd func...

‎By observing the equivalence of assertions on determining the jump of a‎ ‎function by its differentiated or integrated Fourier series‎, ‎we generalize a‎ ‎previous result of Kvernadze‎, ‎Hagstrom and Shapiro to the whole class of‎ ‎functions of harmonic bounded variation‎. ‎This is achieved without the finiteness assumption on‎ ‎the number of discontinuities‎. ‎Two results on determination of ...

Introduction: Impact craters on the Moon (and other bodies) form and degrade over time resulting in a change in crater shape and hence an overall evolution in lunar topography. Modeling of crater erosion (e.g. [1, 2, 3]) enables the tracking of crater shape evolution with time and can be used to estimate the relative age of a particular crater. Intuitively, crater degradation results from the c...

In a normed linear space X, consider a nonempty closed set K which has the property that for some r > 0 there exists a set of points xo € X\K, d(xoK) > r, which have closest points p(xo) € K and where the set of points xo — r((xo — p(xo))/\\xo — p(zo)||) is dense in X\K. If the norm has sufficiently strong differentiability properties, then the distance function d generated by K has similar dif...

The theorem proved here extends Chebyshev theory into what has previously been no man's land: functions which have an infinite number of bounded derivatives on the expansion interval [a, b] but which are singular at one endpoint. The Chebyshev series in l/x for all the familiar special functions fall into this category, so this class of functions is very important indeed. In words, the theorem ...

We study the problem of reconstructing a sparse polynomial in a basis of Chebyshev polynomials (Chebyshev basis in short) from given samples on a Chebyshev grid of [−1, 1]. A polynomial is called M -sparse in a Chebyshev basis, if it can be represented by a linear combination of M Chebyshev polynomials. For a polynomial with known and unknown Chebyshev sparsity, respectively, we present efficie...
