AbstractIt is shown to be consistent with set theory that every set of reals of size ℵ1 is null yet there are ℵ1 planes in Euclidean 3-space whose union is not null. Similar results will be obtained for other geometric objects. The proof relies on results from harmonic analysis about the boundedness of certain harmonic functions and a measure theoretic pigeonhole principle.

AbstractWe consider a class of fractal subsets of d formed in a manner analogous to the construction of the Sierpinski carpet. We prove a uniform Harnack inequality for positive harmonic functions; study the heat equation, and obtain upper and lower bounds on the heat kernel which are, up to constants, the best possible; construct a locally isotropic diffusion X and determine its basic properties; and extend some classical Sobolev and Poincaré inequalities to this setting.

In The Soldier's Tale there were instances of musical parody which could not possibly be elucidated by simple harmonic analysis within the work's own stylistic terms of reference; for example, it was necessary to allude to Bach's style in order to discuss the harmonies of Stravinsky's chorales. While it is not always correct to view neo-classical works as parodies, generically they present a ‘gloss’ on earlier styles—so that it becomes impossible to analyse such works without reference back, sometimes even to a particular work of a particular forerunner. Clearly an extended study of the use of classical harmonic functions in the works of Stravinsky's middle period would be an undertaking worthy of some months of research and several chapters of exegesis. Here I shall content myself with some instances of his use of cadential formulae.

AbstractMixed norm inequalities for directional operators are closely related to the boundedness problems of several important operators in harmonic analysis. In this paper we prove weighted inequalities for some one-dimensional one-sided maximal functions. Then by applying these results, we establish mixed norm inequalities for directional maximal operators which are defined from these one-dimensional maximal functions. We also estimate the constants in these inequalities.

We construct examples of nonnegative harmonic functions on certain graded graphs: the Young lattice and its generalizations. Such functions first emerged in harmonic analysis on the infinite symmetric group. Our method relies on multivariate interpolation polynomials associated with Schur's S and P functions and with Jack symmetric functions. As a by–product, we compute certain Selberg–type integrals.

We analyse the decay of a single exponential function and develop an algorithm to determine the exponent and the constant, C, (C exp(-kt)) associated with this function . In essence this approach involves `transforming' exponential functions into harmonic functions. This manoeuvre allows techniques that are used to analyse harmonic functions to be used to characterise decaying exponential functions.

Abstract The method of morphisms is a well-known application of Dialectica categories to set theory (more precisely, to the theory of cardinal invariants of the continuum). In a previous work, Valeria de Paiva and the author have asked how much of the Axiom of Choice is needed in order to carry out the referred applications of such method. In this paper, we show that, when considered in their full generality, those applications of Dialectica categories give rise to equivalents (within $\textbf{ZF}$) of either the Axiom of Choice ($\textbf{AC}$) or Partition Principle ($\textbf{PP}$)—which is a consequence of $\textbf{AC}$ whose precise status of its relationship with$\textbf{AC}$ itself is an open problem for more than a hundred years.
