On properties on a certain functional

Consider the following function: $$F(z) = \omega(z)\sin^2\left(\frac{c\Gamma(z)}{z}\right)$$ Here, $\omega(z)$ is a weight we have to construct and $c$ is a constant. The following three conditions ...

Identities and inequalities in analysis and probability

Usually, at the heart of a good limit theorem in probability theory is at least one good inequality – because, in applications, a topological neighborhood is usually defined by inequalities. Of course,...
