Activity patterns of neural population are constrained by underlying biological mechanisms. These patterns are characterized not only by individual activity rates and pairwise correlations but also by statistical dependencies among groups of neurons larger than two, known as higher-order interactions (HOIs). While HOIs are ubiquitous in neural activity, primary characteristics of HOIs remain un...

Jech and Shelah [2] studied full reflection below אω, and produced a model in which the extent of full reflection is maximal in a certain sense. We produce a model in which full reflection is maximised in a different direction.

Let H be the Heisenberg group and let μt be the normalized surface measure for the sphere of radius t in R. Consider the maximal function defined by Mf = supt>0 |f ∗μt|. We prove for n ≥ 2 that M defines an operator bounded on L(H) provided that p > 2n/(2n − 1). This improves an earlier result by Nevo and Thangavelu, and the range for L boundedness is optimal. We also extend the result to a mor...

In the present paper we start the systematic explicit construction of invariant differential operators by giving explicit description of one of the main ingredients the cuspidal parabolic subalgebras. We explicate also the maximal parabolic subalgebras, since these are also important even when they are not cuspidal. Our approach is easily generalised to the supersymmetric and quantum group sett...

We characterize certain maximal curves over finite fields whose plane models are of Hurwitz type, namely xy +y +x = 0. We also consider maximal hyperelliptic curves of maximal genus. Finally, we discuss maximal curves of type y + y = x via Class Field Theory.

The theory of (Muckenhoupt) weights arises in many areas of analysis, for example in connection with bounds for singular integrals and maximal functions on weighted spaces. We prove that a certain averaging process gives a method for constructing Ap weights from a measurably varying family of dyadic Ap weights. This averaging process is suggested by the relationship between the Ap weight class ...

We study some topological properties of maximal ideal spaces of certain algebras of almost periodic functions. Our main result is that such spaces are contractible. We present several analytic corollaries of this result. MSC: 42A75; 46J10

We propose a method by modulus of curve families to identify extremal quasiconformal mappings in the Heisenberg group. This approach allows to study minimizers not only for the maximal distortion but also for a mean distortion functional, where the candidate for the extremal map is not required to have constant distortion. As a counterpart of a classical Euclidean extremal problem, we consider ...
