Extremal problems for regenerative phenomena
This paper explores the possibility of a calculus of variations powerful enough to prove inequalities for the p-functions of regenerative phenomena such as that conjectured by Davidson and proved by Dai. It is shown that this is unlikely to be achieved by compactifying the space of standard p-functions, and a more promising approach is that of working in a compact subspace. The analysis leads to a class of candidate p-functions which contains all the maxima of general functionals.
